There are golf courses all over the Yongding Lake, known as the "Golf Corridor".
The sun shines on the lawn, which is green, the garden is elegant and quiet, the fairway is green with pines and bamboos, 6 figures got off the golf cart, besides the 3 caddies, there is Lu Fei, Xu Lei, and Xu Lei.
Distinguished guests.
Li Xiangdong, the vice president of marketing of China Mobile, is equivalent to Qi Tongwei. He loves nothing else but golf.
He put on his gloves and carefully selected the clubs: "I haven't played for a long time. I have been busy with work."
"That's why I chose Saturday. Mr. Li has been working hard all day, so it's time to combine work and rest." Xu Lei took the opportunity to introduce Lu Fei and recommended it. "Don't think that Mr. Lu and I are of low standards."
"Mr. Li." Lu Fei stretched out his hand without being humble or overbearing.
"Mr. Lu from Feigou.com has heard and heard."
Li Xiangdong looked at the young man in front of him up and down. His deeds were very familiar, "Young genius, it seems that he recently acquired a communication software company, right? It's a big deal. Other Internet companies did not dare to act rashly after the collapse of Nasdaq.
Mr. Lu is very energetic."
"The acquisition of Penguin is also a helpless move. The bursting of the U.S. stock market bubble has seriously affected the survival of Chinese Internet companies. They can't raise money, they can't make money, and one company after another dies."
Lu Fei looked concerned about the country and the people, and he spoke in a high-sounding way.
The reason why we want to save Penguin is because its QQ is a software that can compete with ICQ and MSN in the domestic social communication market. If Penguin dies, wouldn't it mean that such a huge domestic market will be given away to foreigners?
Xu Lei looked like he had seen a ghost. Is this still the ghostly Lu Fei I know?
Li Xiangdong was also stunned, and couldn't help but look high, "Mr. Lu invited me out to play golf this time, is it for the penguins?"
"Not only for this one, but also for other Internet companies in China, and the future of China Internet."
Lu Fei's tone kept rising, "Now, the only one who can help me in times of need is Mr. Li and you, China Mobile."
"Oh, what do you say?"
Li Xiangdong squinted his eyes. You must know that China Mobile was separated from the telecommunications industry in 2000, that is, in April this year, and became an independently operated state-owned enterprise.
At present, it is surrounded by powerful enemies, including China Telecom, China Unicom, China Satellite Communications, China Netcom, Jitong, and Tietong. Counting itself, it is comparable to the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period in China's information and communications industry.
How to break out, how to become stronger, how to rise? Now that China Mobile has an unknown future, it still helps China Internet?
"Value-added services create demand."
Lu Fei opened his mouth and pointed directly at the wireless Internet economy, with the core being "Monternet".
Simply put, it is to create a WAP application platform through which mobile users can subscribe to various services of CP (content provider) and SP (network service provider) that cooperate with the platform.
For example, Feigou.com can cooperate with China Mobile to open a "Feigoutong" for 5 yuan per month.
After all sellers on Feigou.com subscribe to this SMS service, after the buyer places an order, they can receive the specific information of the order, the orderer, order contact information, order item information, quantity, requirements, etc.
, no need to spend money to enter Internet cafes every now and then.
Nowadays, the Internet fee costs three to five yuan per hour.
Buyers can also activate it.
Like a shopping catalog guide, Feigou.com specializes in personalized product information that customers want. When shopping, you can compare prices and the prices are transparent.
In the future, Feigou.com will even be able to cooperate with the postal service when it comes to express delivery and logistics. It’s not impossible to check...
As for Penguin, don't be simpler, there are only a few million ideas to make money.
"Mr. Lu deserves to be able to become famous at such a young age."
Li Xiangdong's eyes lit up, wasn't this their plan!
In fact, China Mobile has already sent an inspection team to Neon's NTT DoCoMo company to learn from it, and China Mobile's Monternet plan is on the line.
He praised it greatly, "I didn't expect you to be able to think of a place with us outside the temple. We are planning to start with the short message SMS service."
Lu Fei decisively asked for a spot, "I wonder if Feigou and Penguin have the opportunity to test like this?"
"Moneternet is temporarily positioned as a 'mobile portal + mobile network provider'. It has New Wolf, NetEase, Sohu, TOM.com, emm, and it is not impossible to have Penguin and Feigou."
Li Xiangdong touched his chin and focused his eyes on Lu Fei. He had unlimited potential and wanted to make friends with him, so he gave him a favor.
Lu Fei said: "Thank you very much, Mr. Li."
"Play ball, play ball, it's Mr. Lu's turn." Li Xiangdong waved his hand.
"It's the first time I've been beaten. It's embarrassing."
Lu Fei's movements were stiff and his posture was not elegant. He swung the golf club and hit the ball badly. The ball flew out, eight strokes away from the hole, and could not reach it.
Li Xiangdong stepped forward and took a stance, "Then you have to come and fight often. Only then will your skills improve."
Xu Lei said, "It's for sure that you come here often. You also need a teacher or an expert to give you guidance. I wonder if Mr. Li will have the opportunity to guide my buddy?"
Li Xiangdong curled his lips and swung the golf club fiercely.
Suddenly, the golf ball drew a perfect arc in mid-air, jumped over a hill, and slowly rolled to a position close to the hole.
"Mr. Li, good shot!" Xu Lei clapped.
Lu Fei clamped the club in the creaking nest and clapped his hands.
"No, no, my skills are rusty.
Li Xiangdong stretched his muscles and asked, "How about Mr. Lu, let's get together and practice together when we have time to improve each other?"
Yep, we have a good relationship.
Lu Fei raised his eyebrows and said, "I wish I could have it. I'll go get two membership cards later."
………
After playing the 9th hole, Li Xiangdong left temporarily because of something else, so the whole party naturally came to an end.
On the green grass court, there were two rookies pecking each other.
Xu Lei asked curiously: "Hey, Ah Fei, can this Monternet really make Penguin profitable?"
"Of course." Lu Fei said firmly.
In the subscription fee, communication fees are charged for transfers, like Feigou and Penguin, which are called information service fees.
When it was first implemented, in order to expand the market, China Mobile gave profits to SPs. The share was 15:85, with China Mobile taking 15% and SP's profit being fully 50%.
China Internet's ability to survive this cold winter smoothly is at least partly attributable to Monternet.
In 2001, there were only dozens of them, in 2002, there were hundreds, and in 2003, there were thousands of them. They could easily squeeze millions of dollars from users in a month.
Later, it grew wildly, bundled consumption, deceived subscriptions, and cut off users everywhere, raising a bunch of Internet companies that were not enterprising and were sitting on nothing.
"Did you think about this before acquiring Penguin?" Xu Lei was shocked.
Lu Fei just smiled slightly and gave him a "you know" look.
Xu Lei suddenly fell silent and his eyes flickered.
Lu Fei reminded: "If Penguin makes a profit, don't forget our bet."
"Don't mention that we have made a bet, and there is no need to wait for profit. I will hand in my resignation letter now, and I will vote for you!"
Xu Lei patted him on the shoulder and felt relieved.
