Reborn in another world as a game

Chapter 302 Immature Fee System
"I don't understand."

Zhou Yunteng frowned, and asked frankly: "Since the success rate is so low, why are we investing hundreds of millions?"

"For the industry."

Tian Moyun said lightly: "You may not have noticed that the Daxia government has already started to regulate the real estate industry. This is just the beginning, and there will be more industries to be regulated in the future."

"Many industrial technology industries in the Great Xia Kingdom have truly begun to go international, and the domestic economy has begun to recover... In a few years, they will reach the top five levels in the world. This is a major trend."

"And the Internet industry is a symbol of the next era, and it is also the top priority for the Great Xia Kingdom to meet international standards."

"Once the economy picks up, the Daxia government will inevitably spend a lot of money to regulate the Internet industry. At that time, [Xingkong Technology] will be considered as a success."

"What we are doing now is nothing more than accumulating experience for the future."

"The rise of the Internet will inevitably bring earth-shaking changes to our lives, almost equivalent to the birth of a new world..."

"By that time, [Xingkong Technology] will be the most valuable company under the group, and the so-called five giants may not be able to match it together."

"certainly--"

"Money is not the most important thing. At my level, I don't care if I have more money or less money, but I still want to do more things for this society."

"The Internet is a new era for everyone to start a business. I hope to guide the development of the Internet in the Great Xia Kingdom. This investment of hundreds of millions is actually just testing the waters. It doesn't matter."

"You will know in a few years, [-] million... not even a splash."

……

Tian Moyun didn't explain too much to him.

For things like the Internet, even he himself has to try and explore at all costs, and summarize the laws of the Internet development history in his previous life.

In other words, even he himself was crossing the river by feeling the stones, so how could he give Zhou Yunteng a correct answer?
The executives of [Thunder Group] generally have a problem. They always feel that their big boss seems to be omnipotent...

"Two of the companies we invested in before have already entered the trial operation stage."

Zhou Yunteng said: "One is the Banana Literature Network, and the other is the Orange Campus Network."

"Banana Literature Network currently mainly focuses on short stories and netizens' hobbies. There are many young people who love literature, but the threshold for publishing is too high, and 99% of people can't meet the standard...and Banana Literature Network is exactly like this It was established under the circumstances and gave everyone a platform to publish and read."

"The management's current idea is to operate and drain traffic through this unique platform, and then integrate its high-quality content and publish it."

As he spoke, Zhou Yunteng frowned slightly.

He has also learned a lot of new knowledge from Tian Moyun these days. Looking at this business model from the perspective of an Internet practitioner, he always finds it strange and unreliable.

"Tell me what you think."

Tian Moyun knew that he had questions and thoughts, so he asked him to speak.

"I think there's something wrong with the way they operate."

Zhou Yunteng was not polite, and said directly: "Banana Literature Network is currently preparing to go online for trial operation, but they have not specified an effective profit model. In my opinion, the Internet's profit should come from online, not offline. In order to complete the most efficient monetization, and their way of experiencing through offline book publishing always feels inappropriate.”

"It's really inappropriate."

Tian Moyun smiled: "What you said about making money online is very reasonable from the perspective of the Internet, but it is actually not easy. When I was working on "Flying Bird" before, I discovered the problem."

"You should have noticed—"

"At the current stage of the Internet, payment is actually very troublesome. Although we have formulated the method of recharging the phone bill, it is still not convenient for users."

"And for us, it is not cost-effective to distribute part of the money we earn to the communication provider."

"If Banana Literature Network wants to make money online, how should it make money? Recharge like games and office software VIP? Or do it for free and make money from advertising?"

"You know, it's not easy to get money out of users' pockets. It's hard to say whether they are willing to pay for text."

"And as for the ad monetization..."

"It only exists in our imagination, and it is not feasible at present, and domestic traditional enterprises do not recognize the value of the Internet."

……

After careful analysis, the future of [Banana Literature Network] is really worrying.

At present, there is no precedent for electronic content payment in China. [Banana Literature Network] If you want to be the first to eat crabs, you must be prepared to be smashed.

Moreover, domestic Internet recharging is actually quite troublesome, and the current volume is difficult to connect with banks.

Under such circumstances, the only way to recharge is to recharge the phone bill, and then recharge through spending... There is a problem here, that is, a part of the profit needs to be allocated to the carrier.

It is already very difficult to make profits on the Internet at this stage, and if you give a part to the communication providers, you will probably lose money.

So to put it bluntly-

Paying for electronic text content is not yet mature for the time being. Enterprises have never experienced it, nor have Internet users. No one knows if it will work.

In addition, the only way to make money is to sell traffic and make money from advertising.

The scientific and technological powerhouses on the other side of the ocean have already started the national Internet era. There are several giant companies in them. market value.

A bunch of virtual things can be worth hundreds of billions?
This is something that has caused an uproar and shock to countless people, and this is exactly the change brought about by the Internet, a brand-new offline traditional industry promotion method.

but--

That is the other side of the ocean, a special growth environment with advanced technology, developed economy, and the Internet has already entered a period of rapid development.

And domestic?

The technology is backward, the economy is backward, the Internet has just begun to develop, and there is not even some mature ecological software. Even more than half of the people in the country think that this is a deceptive thing. You can make money by sitting on a chair and typing on the keyboard?What is the difference between this and the pie in the sky in the eyes of Chinese people?
For nothing?

Everyone wants to get something for nothing, but most people are very "realistic". They don't believe this kind of thing exists at all, and they don't understand it and think it's a lie.

Not only ordinary Chinese people think so, even the executives of those traditional production companies have doubts about the domestic Internet.

If you ask them to pay for advertising on the Internet, it will inevitably be met with cynicism.

and so--

The advertising profit plan is also unworkable.

This does not work, that does not work, there is no suitable profit entry, which is also a problem that plagues most software companies.

The reason why many game manufacturers are unwilling to develop computer games has a lot to do with this problem.
