"Fatal flaw?" Jiang Yong is curious.

Qin Feng nodded.

"AOL is too big, but now he has too much appetite and wants to build a bigger Internet empire. But it is not a pure Internet company and does not know the advantages and disadvantages of the Internet. " Qin Feng said, "at present, Yahoo, a pure Internet company, has just announced its profit. And AOL moves frequently. It has spent so much money, but it has not been realized, nor can it be realized! "

At present, Internet companies all over the world are still trying to find a profit model. Although Yahoo announced a profit, it just broke even and made a little profit.

As for how to make money and make big money, it can satisfy investors, but it is still groping.

At this stage, all Internet companies around the world have been groping for several years before gradually finding a profitable route. However, it is a pity that AOL is eager to expand and wants to build an Internet empire quickly, which eventually leads to rapid expansion and lack of profit points, and finally collapses.

Finally, a company with a market of more than $200 billion disappeared without a trace.

"But aren't we making money now?" Jiang Yong doesn't understand.

Now it has been proved that online games are the best way to make money.

Not only make money, but also make a lot of money.

Qin Feng was slightly surprised.

Indeed, this road proves that it is really easy for the Internet to make money. Just create online games. There will always be players krypton gold.

"But it's not so easy to make money." Qin Feng thought deeply and said, "of course, the other party really deserves our attention."

If AOL sees this road and spends a lot of money on it, Qin Feng should really deal with it carefully.

Not beyond Jiang Yong's expectation, soon, Wang Zhidong announced that his "national farm" would launch major preferential activities. As long as you pay 1 yuan, you can get a big gift bag worth 99 yuan!

This is much more heroic than Qin Feng.

Although in the social media era, the adhesion of users is the most critical. But after all, social media has just come out, and we haven't completely relied on a certain social media.

In this case, it is not surprising that many users will choose to use two social media software, such as ICQ and QQ, and have accounts with two different software.

Therefore, in a very short time, the number of ICQ users has exceeded 500000, and the number of online users has exceeded tens of thousands from thousands in the past.

"Ha ha, money is good. In the past, we were too poor, and Qin Feng took the lead, so we have been pressed by Qin Feng. Now, I want to see if Qin Feng can hold us down! " Wang Zhidong laughed and felt proud.

Now that AOL has injected $10 million, he has plenty of money to compete with Qin Feng.

Of course, this $10 million won't burn for long. But AOL said that as long as its market share can rise, there will be additional funds in the future. And the conditions are very favorable. Is to take shares. Pure capital will not interfere with his operation.

This condition is much better than the original ICQ condition. This also relieved Wang Zhidong.

What's more, it's cheap to rent broadband lines, etc. because Qin Feng introduced cable modem in advance, which is an extremely mature technology in the United States, it's cheap. Now, his monthly human resource cost and various operating costs are only more than one million yuan.

After all, he is a high-tech company, an IT company, an Internet company, ICQ is introduced, and the portal just needs a few college students who can program. As for the content, just find some editors.

All this adds up to little operating cost.

He is not like Qin Feng. He has to build everything by himself. Moreover, Qin Feng has great ambition and employs many programmers, operators and other talents.

With $10 million, Wang Zhidong can burn it for a year or two. At that time, as long as the market rises, AOL will casually invest hundreds of millions of dollars in AOL's funds. It's not fun.

But that was enough for him to stare at Qin Feng.

So, Wang Zhidong is very hi, Pipi.

In the future, he will launch a 1 yuan gift pack once a week. Each time, it's worth 99 yuan. He wants to see how long Qin Feng can last.

Qin Feng hasn't made any response yet, and Ding Sanshi has also made a major announcement.

Ding Sanshi officially publicized and reached a strategic cooperation alliance with Microsoft.

Ding Sanshi will launch a larger online game service. At the same time, MSN will be upgraded to launch a more concise and efficient new social software to serve everyone, and will be compatible with Microsoft's windows system.

Microsoft will officially launch the new Win98 operating system on June 5 this summer. At that time, a new MSN social software will be built to provide more perfect social services for all users.

This news undoubtedly makes the already hot Chinese Internet market more popular.

This time, Microsoft is really entering the social media market, and Microsoft will also enter the game industry.

This news alerted Qin Feng.

Win98 is coming. This is one of the most successful operating systems in Microsoft's history. It is also an operating system that really allows you to enter the beautiful computer world. It is much more successful than Win95. It is an operating system that really makes you feel gorgeous interface.

Of course, there are more successful XP systems.

But now, Win98 will be the most successful system in the next few years. Its built-in MSN, which was not available before. Not only that, it also launched online game services.

Is Microsoft going to build Xbox in advance? Qin Feng remembers that Microsoft built Xbox in 2001, which was born in the sky. Go hand in hand with Sony's PS2 and Sega's DC.

Finally, there are only Xbox and PS series left in the world. Moreover, Microsoft also spent money from the beginning to the final success, and became a major overlord in the home game console market. Although it is not as good as PS series, PS series can no longer drive it out, allowing it to successfully separate a large market.

Now, is Microsoft waking up early because of its QQ farm?

However, when Blizzard's world of Warcraft was so popular, Microsoft didn't want to make online games? Or is there someone behind it?

Qin Feng pondered.

At the moment, Intel headquarters in the United States.

"Now Qin Feng should have a headache." Grove grinned.

On this trip to the Silicon Valley it forum, he successfully met with Ballmer of Microsoft and Steve Case of AOL to explain the changes in China. Also contributed to their investment in Huaxia company.
