"Not satisfied yet?"
Xu Yong couldn't help but talk, and his heart was too big. At present, there are more than 600 million Internet users worldwide. Want to make 300 million of them become blue space users within two or three years, or is it a small goal?
To them this is already an illusion.
Luo Sheng leaned on a wheelchair and smiled calmly: "You just have this imagination? The growth of Internet users in the future will blow out. Now there are less than 100 million Internet users in China, but there are still more than 1 billion people in our country. Without access to the Internet, with such a large population base, the future has endless imagination. "
The growth force of the Blue Space website comes from the photo tag function, and the like function is currently the best feature to maintain user activity. How big is the small like function? Not only does the product decision of the Blue Space website change, but also other websites.
Luo Sheng said, "With the Like feature taking off, for the first time, we have a real fundamental change that changed the user 's habit of using the B community. When I raised the pre-A round of financing, I once told investors Speaking of three billion in two years, in fact, I was thinking that it could be faster. "
Participating Xu Yong, Feng Yi and others secretly murmured.
Seeing their lack of confidence, Luo Sheng immediately said: "It seems to be an impossible feat to achieve the goal of 300 million users of the Blue Space website in two years. What we are fighting for is to make the impossible impossible. It became possible. When you first joined the company, who of you can imagine that our career will develop to this degree, who can think of the Blue Space website has reached more than 40 million user registrations in just three months so far Can anyone think that Bluestar Technology is currently valued at more than 1 billion? "
Having said that, Luo Sheng looked around and pointed to himself, "I thought of it, I did it, and I can still do it!"
These words immediately mobilized several young managers in the conference room, and confidence was raised inexplicably.
Yeah, no one would have thought that Bluestar Technology could be valued as a billion-level startup. This is a miracle in itself, and Luo Sheng is the core creator of this miracle.
Is there any reason not to continue to believe that he can do new miracles again?
"You are the leader, we all believe, and we firmly believe." Xu Yong laughed: "What shall we do next?"
At the meeting, Irene and others also focused their attention on Luo Sheng. He thought about it and said, "To achieve this seemingly impossible feat, the attitude of the blue space website should also be some It has changed. Before, we only served college students, but there were only a limited number of freshmen entering the university each year in more than 1,000 universities across the country. Therefore, our products can not only focus on universities, and it is sufficient to expand beyond the campus. Reasons. "
Expanding beyond campus?
Everyone nodded silently, and everyone remembered what Luo Sheng once said. The ideal and mission of the blue space to be injected is to connect all human beings. Although it was born in the school, it will not be limited to the school intranet.
Irene said: "After the company moved into the Jinmao Tower, it has purchased three business-dedicated vehicles, purchased servers and the corresponding hardware expansion. The total expenditure is 3.3 million, and the book fund has more than 74 million surplus funds for expansion.
Irene, who served as the chief financial officer of Bluestar Technology, soon played the role of CFO and was fully responsible for corporate financial audit management.
"OK, we will develop according to the current established strategy and complete the expansion of the company's staff to 100 people within this week. In addition, the finance office will spend another 10 million on the promotion of the Blue Space website." Luo Sheng ordered methodically, The management attending the meeting also took over his task requirements, and then ended the meeting.
Luo Sheng looked at Irene and they were all going to leave this conference room, and said immediately: "Xu Yong, Feng Yi, you stay.
"
The two sat back again, and the last one to leave, Irene, closed the door of the meeting room. Luo Sheng said a moment later: "Just turning the expansion target from the university to the whole society is not enough to meet my requirements. To grow, we need to develop new products to maintain the product advantages of the Blue Space website. "
Competitor Renren.com, backed by Tencent, also intends to copy it to the end. Luo Sheng calculated that most of the time the R community will be launched in June, and it will also look away from the campus.
Now the two sides have begun to face the competition, grab each other's users on each other 's site, the competition has entered the next scene, and the money-burning war has begun, which will undoubtedly intensify the fierce competition. It may not be enough.
Don't look at the pre-A round of financing that got more than 70 million. Once this started to seize users, the two sides entered a money-burning mode, and more than 70 million really did not cost.
Moreover, Blue Space not only faces direct competition from Renren.com, but also indirect competition from QQ. Although the two parties have different models, they do not seem to conflict. Many users now have both QQ accounts and Blue Space and Renren accounts. , And with continuous expansion, more and more similar users will overlap.
Then for both Blue Space and QQ, there will be fierce competition in terms of opening product use time, that is, competition for activity.
When users browse the blue space, the time spent using QQ will be relatively reduced, and vice versa, the user's activity in using the product is very critical, and the most obvious thing is that it directly affects revenue.
"Boss, I guess you must already have new creative ideas." Xu Yong heard Luo Sheng said that he would like to develop new products.
"Don't guess, there must be." Feng Yi laughed.
The two looked at Luo Sheng in unison, and the latter nodded with a smile and said, "I decided to make Blue Space complete a" big facelift ". The new idea, which I called the" stream of news, "was the latest. The launch of the project was completed before the end of the fall, leaving us only about three months. We will start the news flow project at the end of this summer. "
Xu Yong said curiously: "Message flow? What feature product is this?"
Wen Yan Luo Sheng expressed a confident expression: "If photo sharing is the core of the blue space, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, then the message flow is fundamental. This is a disruptive product, a viral marketing concept To give users an avatar. "
"This product is simply a series of messages. It contains everything that happened on the Blue Space website. It just collects status updates and personal homepage changes. It should be an aggregator that collects all stories, of course there will be a set of New logic algorithms, it is impossible for us to show all content to users. "
Although Luo Sheng is the company's CEO, he has not forgotten his identity as a technology developer. This is the biggest competitive advantage. The CEO of such technology is currently rare in the industry, but in the original world , If the company founder does not have the ability to develop technology, he will be embarrassed to start a business.
Times are different, and the world is different.
Luo Sheng took a sip of saliva and said, "There are two main streams in it, one is what you are doing, and the other is what others are doing online. It is not static, not boring, not useless. , It should be a continuously updated 'newspaper', that is, it can tell you what is happening on the Blue Space website, and we think there are some things you might care about. "
Xu Yong couldn't help wondering, and his thinking was also very agile. He immediately realized the role of the news flow and couldn't help but inspire: "This idea is so great. Why do you always think of such a good idea?"
