147 Lu Yun: How many domain names does Lu Fei have!
Hangcheng, Ali Baba.
Peng Lei, Sun Tongyu and more than 20 employees all gathered in the living room, forming a circle with Lu Yun in the middle.
"There is only one topic for this meeting."
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lu Yun stretched out a finger and said that Ali Baba has been secretly working on a new project for several months, codenamed "Ali Mama".
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the R&D team, except Cai Chongxin, was more and more surprised. When they heard that the new website was built as C2C, even the calm Sun Tongyu became uneasy.
"I'm sorry for hiding it from everyone for so long."
Lu Yun clasped his hands together, turned around in a circle, apologized to each of them, and then shook out the design and business ideas of the website, talking endlessly.
Cai Chongxin frowned, no matter how he looked at him, he felt that Lu Yun at this moment was like a low-profile copy of Lu Fei.
"Bah bang bang."
Lu Yun clapped his hands and said, "I've said everything that needs to be said. Now let's brainstorm and give the website a catchy name."
"Mr. Lu, why don't you just call me Mama Ali."
As soon as Peng Lei spoke out, he won the hearts of the public, and the voice of "Ali's mother" was very high, because Ahli is like a family, with daddy making money outside, and mommy spending money on shopping at home.
Cai Chongxin stood up, pressed his hand down, and said in a humane tone: "Where's Ahli's mother? She's not loud enough and too casual. The target we want to compete with is the largest and most powerful Feigou.com, and it needs to have a good reputation!"
Everyone nodded and saw Lu Yun hand over the errand of website name to Sun Tongyu, asking him to collect statistics and report back.
There was a loud bang, and the living room became noisy.
There are many people talking about everything, such as gold mining, Tesco, Yiguo, buying Hao...
"How about calling it 'Taobao'?"
Ye Feng raised his hand, "I like shopping. Shopping is like Taobao. You can find the treasures you like."
"Remember you, who else?"
Sun Tongyu's eyes lit up, and he wrote down on the white paper, there were more than 50 of them, half of them were eliminated by him in the first round.
After every employee participated to mobilize the sense of participation and enhance the sense of community, the selected list was handed over to Lu Yun and Cai Chongxin.
Lu Yun did a rough scan and chose "Taobao" at first sight among the 23 names. He said with satisfaction: "Taobao, Taobao, there is no treasure that cannot be found, and there is no treasure that cannot be sold. This name is good.
Chongxin, what do you think?"
"Don't worry, check to see if the domain name has been registered."
Cai Chongxin controlled the computer and conducted an investigation and found that no matter [.] already had an owner, this owner was Lu Fei.
"Lu Fei?!" Sun Tongyu was speechless.
Lu Yun was more shocked than angry. He stared blankly at the domain name "taobao", feeling empty in his heart.
"How about we ask someone to buy this domain name?" Sun Tongyu said weakly.
"Haven't you heard about Lu Fei's rush to register for Lian Xiang?"
Cai Chongxin shook his head repeatedly. This trip to Wanwan only cost 3.3 million U.S. dollars, so he had to save money everywhere.
Even if Lu Fei is willing to sell it, Ah Li Baba may not be able to afford it.
"It's not just about money."
Lu Yun crossed his hands, as if a piece of flesh had been cut out by Lu Fei, and it was bloody and painful.
"If they see through us like they saw through Lianxiang, our c2c project will be exposed and Lu Fei and the others will be on guard."
No way?
Sun Tongyu had a puzzled look on his face. It was unbelievable for a big man in the world to deal with a younger brother who had just debuted.
"If Taobao doesn't work, what about Taobao?" Lu Yun said.
"This one was also registered by Lu Fei." Cai Chongxin's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it.
"Where is Taowang?" Lu Yun asked again.
"It's also Lu Fei's." Cai Chongxin smiled bitterly.
Blanch!
Lu Yun's face was twisted, and he was more angry than shocked. He slapped his hand on the table: "How many domain names have Lu Fei registered?"
Sun Tongyu coughed and said, "As far as I know, there were only more than 1,200 domain names left two months ago."
“More than 1,200? Is there ‘just’ left?”
Lu Yun was stunned. After making a fuss for a long time, Lu Fei was still a hidden domain name businessman, the kind who hid very deeply.
"Yes, I read a report about him in Sanlian. At his peak, he had more than 2,000."
Sun Tongyu pursed her dry lips and said, "Most of them are domain names at the third level of provinces, cities and counties."
"At the provincial, city and county level? They just let him do whatever he wants?"
"Not only don't I blame him, I also want to thank him!"
"Well, did I hear you right? Do you still have to thank him?"
Lu Yun and Cai Chongxin looked confused. It’s not that I don’t understand, it’s that the world is changing rapidly.
"Sanlian said that in more than 2,200 counties and cities, as well as dozens of provinces, before 2001, more than 80% of the domain names were registered by foreign countries, and they were all in the hands of foreigners."
Sun Tongyu smiled miserably, "But after the Internet bubble, some foreigners were either anxious to sell out or simply gave up. Lu Fei slowly took these back."
Lu Yun, Cai Chongxin was dumbfounded, is there such a thing?
"He took the key back and gave it away for free, without reimbursement, to governments at all levels, such as Yiwu, Wenou, Hangcheng, and the first step for Feigou.com to enter Jiangsu and Zhejiang is to return the domain name."
Sun Tongyu looked at the two of them and said, "I even published it in the newspaper and wrote that Internet entrepreneur Lu Fei donated domain names free of charge."
Is there still such an operation?
Cai Chongxin lost control of his facial expression and opened his mouth wide.
Lu Yun suddenly realized, no wonder Feigou.com was able to get in touch with the Yamen so quickly, and the co-author had this little trick, he had failed to learn it!
"Mr. Lu, Mr. Cai, which one should you decide now?"
When Sun Tongyu saw the two bosses freeze, he boldly offered his idea, but he had to keep the word "Tao", which not only means looking for treasures, but also because it has a sense of movement.
"What do you think it's called?" Lu Yun asked.
"Taoduoduo." Sun Tong rolled his eyes.
"This one has also been registered!" Cai Chongxin said.
Lu Yun completely lost his temper: "It's not Lu Fei again, is it?"
Cai Chongxin smiled and said, "It's not this time, it's someone else. Maybe I can buy it from him."
"Write this name down for later use."
Lu Yun touched his chin and picked "Taotao", "Yitao", "Taodongdong" and so on in the list. After picking and choosing, none of them were as satisfactory as "Taobao".
"I prefer Taoduoduo. If the selling price is not high, let it go. Once it is purchased, we will start internal testing. We must keep a low profile and limit the area to Hangzhou."
"Low-key?"
Sun Tongyu was surprised, but Cai Chongxin supported it, "Yes, keep a low profile, leave the high profile to Sohu."
………………
Yanyuan, Zizi Hotel.
The moving plan was scheduled for the end of the year, and Lu Fei would have to move out of Room 1416 soon. At this time, he was pacing back and forth, talking as he walked.
"Where did I just say that?"
“The fifth largest flattening force is outsourcing.”
Tao Yao carefully recorded the scattered opinions and arranged them. The first few forces were the establishment of the Windows operating system, the emergence of the web and the listing of Netscape, workflow software...
Lu Fei snapped his fingers and continued.
"The World is Flat" was written by Thomas Friedman based on what he saw and heard around the world. He had to be asked to co-write it in order to make it a logical conclusion.
Of course there is also originality, and he mixed a lot of private goods into it, not only from Microsoft, Amazon, and Google, but also from Feigou, Penguin, and NetArt.
When he got excited, Liu Dongdong knocked on the door.
Lu Fei took over the traffic statistics of Feigou.com from him. Just one game, "Legend of Hot Blood", brought Feigou.com to a new level, adding 180,000 users, and the total number of buyers had risen to 1.37 million. By the end of the year
It is expected to exceed the 1.5 million mark.
The number of merchants offering point cards has also increased.
Click the card and recharge the phone bill, it is profitable, it is about small profits but quick turnover, just like the recharge of mobile phone bills on Alipay and WeChat.
Generally speaking, the purchase price of the phone bill is fixed. For example, if the phone bill of Yanjing Mobile is 50 yuan and the purchase price is 49 yuan and 3.5 cents, then it will be sold for 49 yuan and 80 cents. The sales price is determined by the seller.
The higher the sales price, the higher the profit, and it is the same for other virtual goods.
"What about "Westward Journey"?"
"How should I put it? It's exactly the opposite of "Legend", one is hot and the other is cold, it's completely cool."
Liu Edong frowned, "Mr. Lu, the games invested by Penguin and NetArt seem to have poor performance and reputation."
"Yeah, what a failure."
Lu Fei suppressed his smile and looked extremely disappointed. Seeing that Liu Haodong seemed to have something to say, he cast an inquiring look.
"President Lu, Sohu announced its entry into e-commerce."
"Oh, Sohu?"
Lu Fei couldn't help being surprised and looked at the newspaper in Liu Edong's hand.
