Chapter 86： [Internet industry in melee]

Relative to the overseas version, the domestic version of Blue Star Music is online, and 2.25 million songs are free to listen to. The most recent half year is prime time, because there are no music players on the market, like [QQ 音乐], [酷 狗 音乐] , [Cool My Music] These follow-up projects will be launched as soon as six months, or even longer.

Qiao helped the master proudly, but domestic entrepreneurs can ignore it. If you care too much, you can draw a scoop on the gourd first. It is right to move over the functions of Blue Star Music. Changing the skin and the noun can perfectly circumvent the law. risk.

However, some functions can not be imitated. For example, Blue Star Music recommends similar songs based on the listening habits of users. These are highly technical content, especially for algorithm requirements, and it depends on the engineer's technology. Strength.

Therefore, even if the follow-up items are launched in haste, the user experience is definitely inferior to Blue Star Music.

Except for engineers from Bluestar Technology, the employees who enter Bluestar Technology Company are very popular in the industry now. The IT industry was originally a rising industry. An employee who came out of Bluestar Technology was eager for the industry.

Without him, being able to enter this company has already completed the screening, and it must be an elite in the industry. Like engineers returning from Silicon Valley, this one is more sought-after than Bluestar's employees.

However, people with a resume in Silicon Valley generally start their own business when returning to China. If they are working, he will not be able to return to China. Instead, he will stay in Silicon Valley for a simple reason. The annual salary of a Silicon Valley engineer starts at $ 70,000, equivalent to Nearly RMB 580,000.

Domestic companies that can give such treatment can be counted with one hand.

So, Bluestar's engineers are in demand, but if they want to dig into Luo Sheng's corner, they have to face a new problem.

First of all, the issue of treatment is at least more on par with Bluestar Technology. There are really few domestic Internet companies that can be treated like Bluestar Technology. It is difficult to get men out of money if you do n’t have enough money.

To save money in place, not just talent.

I am afraid that at present only one company can give money in place, that is, I am a company, but I am a communication equipment manufacturer, not an Internet company.

Save money in place, what about the working environment?

Let's not say anything else, Bluestar's food culture has raised all employees, not just food but also food. When employees go to work at other companies, they may not be used to it.

Uh ...

In the next six months, Luo Sheng set a goal for the Blue Star Music Project Department to become the necessary software for the installation of major Internet cafes in the country. While there are no other competitors entering the market now, he will grab the market frantically and take a breath. 80 million yuan is directly allocated for promotion, which is not enough. The copyright agreement has cost 1.6 billion yuan. The company still has about 1 billion yuan, and the funds are quite abundant.

Luo Sheng wants to win more than half of the market share at the end of this year. Now the biggest competitor is Mp3 search of Baidu. Baidu now has two core traffic positions. The first is naturally the search engine, followed by mp3 search and mp3 search. For whiteness came huge traffic gains.

If it wasn't for Luo Sheng's half-cuts, Baidu now has three positions, and the third one is Post.

But post it, now it has become a related product of Yunge Search. Although Baidu Post Bar has been launched in a hurry, during this time, Yunge Post Bar has become a big fire in China.

铭 Li Mingyuan, as a senior product manager of Yunge Post Bar, relies on the close search mode and the operation of the "Super Girl" entertainment event. In a short time, he brought the traffic of Yunge Post Bar to a new peak.

As of May, the traffic share of Yunge Search has reached the internal level. The data of Post Bar has soared to 22%, and the current growth rate of Yunge Search is second only to Baidu. Yunge Post Bar and hao123 have contributed.

Baidu now regards cloud search as the number one competitor. It used to be Google. Now Google is ranked behind, and the threat of cloud search is ranked first.

The introduction of Blue Star Music once again made Baidu tremble and tremble, this is the second largest traffic position mp3 of the sword refers to Baidu.

But I have to say that Baidu ’s response was very fast. On the second day after Bluestar Technology launched Bluestar Music, Baidu immediately realized the importance of PC-side music. On the third day, Baidu sent someone to contact Qianqian Music, a domestic music portal, and launched an acquisition. Bluestar Technology suddenly entered the music field, and Qianqian Music was panicking.

In this context, the two sides hit it off. Qianqian Music has no financial advantage, but it has whiteness and MP3 is doing well. However, Bluestar Music is backed by Bluestar Technology. Although it was just born, it is menacing because Bluestar Technology-owned products have strong linkage capabilities. Facing this all-round offensive, Baidu dare not take it lightly.

This year, the domestic Internet has been unprecedentedly bustling, and the power of the Internet bubble has not yet dispersed, but the gunpowder of the competition is full and increasingly fierce, which has also driven the domestic Internet field to start late but develop rapidly.

At present, only the beasts of the "BALT" Big Four are out of the way, and the other three are extremely hot. It is simply the melee mode, but Abe is also being out of touch with others.

QQ and Blue Space are on the shelf, a virtual social network, a real-name social network, one user core is elementary and middle school students, one user core high school students and college students, at the same time divided into annual groups, but the size of more than 200 million giants .

The sudden rise of the blue space in QQ, which has been smashed by different forces, has been losing ground. The failure is user activity. The two sides have engaged in fierce competition over which users open more products, take longer, and have higher frequencies.

With the launch of qq space, Tencent finally pulled back a city, and this year's qq show revenue reached 128 million yuan in the first quarter, allowing Tencent to find a strong monetization breakthrough, in addition qq games also perform Eye-catching and surpassing Lianzhong this year, Teng Xun tasted the sweetness and finally found a new business growth point.

Bluestar is still struggling with Baidu. The domestic search engine market is currently in a scuffle. Cloud song, Baidu, Sogou, Sogo, Google and other messy search engines, etc. The competition here can be said to be The most fierce position, whiteness is the most uncomfortable.

A raccoon did not stay aside, the fierce digging of its subordinates and eBay, and Dangdang and the like, and this year's owner Ma is secretly preparing Alipay, an online payment product.

In this year, the domestic Internet has been flooded, and there are also many heroes. Fierce competition is rapidly promoting the rapid development of the Internet ~ www.novelhall.com ~ and another Internet company became the protagonist in the middle of this month, May 2004 On the 13th, Chen Tianqiao sounded the bell on Nasdaq. "Legend" sent Shanda to Nasdaq. The IPO financing amount was US $ 152 million and the market value was nearly US $ 800 million. It became the highest Nasdaq market value at the moment. Huaguo concept network stock, this company has the presence of Softbank Capital, owning more than 20% of Shanda shares.

In comparison, Bluestar Technology received US $ 325 million in a Series B financing with a valuation of US $ 3.25 billion.

The news of Tencent's listing is growing, and there are multiple versions of the industry rumors. There is no doubt that it will be listed this year, but the specific listing time is still uncertain. Some people speculate that it will be next month, that is, June. The place of uncertainty is the place of listing. First of all, A shares can definitely be ruled out, because Teng Xun has just completed its financial turnaround, so the suspense lies in listing in Hong Kong or listing in the United States.

Although Tencent currently faces such a strong competitor as Bluestar Technology, the market is not optimistic but rather optimistic because Tencent holds the equity of Bluestar Technology and is the second largest shareholder and the largest external investment shareholder of Bluestar. .

And the current valuation of Bluestar Technology is definitely above US $ 3.25 billion. To say that the most anticipated domestic Internet companies in the market are non-Bluestar Technology, the only round of financing is now, and the valuation is already far ahead. Shanda just went public in the US and hasn't got half of Bluestar's Series B financing.

The market is more optimistic about who is going to judge.

Many people dare not imagine what will happen to Bluestar Technology once it steadily develops until the day of its IPO, but it must be certain that it must be a feast for the capital world.

Uh ...
