Chapter 92 Creating a New Type of Interactive Website
The next day, Chen Wei came to see Lu Yang as promised.
Compared with Lu Yong, Chen Wei had much richer academic qualifications and experience. Faced with the idea of an interactive website planned by Lu Yang, she raised questions.
"Lu Yang, if this website is really what you said, then how did it make money in the early stages?"
“Pay by advertising!”
"Since you rely on advertising to pay for it, before the website becomes famous, it may be a big expense for you. Can you stick to it?"
Lu Yang is confident. He knows that if an Internet company cannot find a profitable direction in the early stage, it will be difficult to sustain it in the later stage.
At that time, Xiao Ma almost sold QQ because of the high server costs, because at that time he could not find a profitable direction.
But Lu Yang is different. He is very familiar with the profit direction of the Internet.
Lu Yang explained: "As for financing, you don't have to worry. I have my own financing methods. All we need to do now is build this website."
Lu Yong blindly believed in Lu Yang.
Only Chen Wei is the calmest one, because her vision is relatively mature. Since Lu Yang is confident that he can get through the early difficult period, she can't say anything else.
Lu Yang said: "I will set up the company structure in the next few days, and we will slowly revise some other details when the time comes. In addition, Sister Wei, we now need to recruit a technical director, and we require a lower salary."
With his ability, the speed of building a website is far from enough.
Chen Wei and Lu Yong are also responsible for marketing matters.
Chen Wei thought for a moment and said: "You have to have good skills and low salary. I suggest you go to the school to find it. I will ask you from the school later."
Lu Yang's eyes lit up, students are the cheapest labor force, oh, no, I am only responsible for talking to them about their dreams.
Lu Yang asked Chen Wei why she resigned.
Chen Wei sighed. She was now being suppressed in the company. Every day, even an hour, she stayed in was very painful. Instead of doing that, it would be better to resign as soon as possible.
"I will submit my resignation to the company tomorrow. If you are free today, please register the company. Let's set up the personnel framework first."
Lu Yang said it was no problem.
Next, he told Chen Wei about the division of labor, and Chen Wei would lead Lu Yong in marketing.
Because Lu Yang had to undergo military training and attend classes, he didn't have that much freedom in terms of time. This was why he approached Chen Wei.
Chen Wei agreed, and Lu Yong said it was no problem. Who asked Chen Wei to have a high degree of education?
This is the benefit of grassroots entrepreneurship. Chen Wei and Lu Yong didn't even ask about salary and benefits, and just relied on Lu Yang's few words and future plans to get on his pirate ship.
The only thing left is the house. From now on, if they don't do the legendary private server, they will have to rent out the house in the Tobacco Bureau's Family Courtyard and find a new house near the university town. This will make it easier for Lu Yong and Chen Wei to communicate in a timely manner.
Considering that the number of team members would increase in the future, Lu Yang asked Chen Wei to find a larger one, preferably a simple room with three bedrooms and one living room. Then the living room could be used as an office area and the bedroom could be used for rest.
After the three people discussed it, they planned to split into two groups. Chen Wei took Lu Yong to rent a house, while Lu Yang went to Liu Xingyao to sign the legendary private server transfer agreement.
At noon, the three of them had a simple meal in the rental house, marking the beginning of their entrepreneurial journey.
Regardless of the origin of the hero, when Wang Xing founded the school network, it was founded by three people in a residential building.
Chen Wei held the wine glass: "I hope we can stay together for a longer time."
Then she remembered something and asked: "How is your game now?"
Lu Yang smiled and said: "If you were sold by me, I would use the money I spent to buy the game to start a second business."
Chen Wei asked: "How much did it cost?"
Lu Yang stretched out his thumb and index finger: "Not much, only 800,000."
Chen Wei was stunned. If she hadn't been mentally prepared, she probably wouldn't have been able to hold the disposable paper cup in her hand.
What does eight hundred thousand mean?
Her internship salary in the company was only 600 yuan, and her salary after becoming a full-time employee was 900 yuan. Even Li Yukun, who had worked in the company for nine years, only received 1,500 yuan.
This was 2003, and the national average annual salary was just over 10,000.
As we all know, this is the average salary according to national statistics. In fact, at least 80% of people do not reach the average salary level.
As we later calculated, the average annual salary in 2021 was 106,837 yuan, but the vast majority of people only received a monthly salary of 5,000 to 6,000 yuan.
Chen Wei's eyes lit up when she saw Lu Yang, and even Lu Yong was frightened. He thought the game sold for tens of thousands, but he didn't expect it to be 800,000.
"Lu Yang, the food you serve me is not good enough, I want to eat meat!"
Chen Wei looked at the cold dishes and ground delicacies in front of her, and suddenly felt that Lu Yang was trying to get rid of the rich and unkind Zhou.
Lu Yang smiled and said, "Okay, when we move to a new residence, I'll entertain you all, okay?"
Chen Wei pointed at Lu Yang: "Do you mean what you say?"
Lu Yang looked at Chen Wei's serious expression and found it difficult to associate her with the shirtless scene that day.
Now think about it, it's hard to grasp the size.
Chen Wei noticed the amusement in Lu Yang's eyes, her pretty face blushed slightly, and she took a sip from the wine glass.
In the afternoon, Lu Yang went to Wangyu Internet Cafe to find Liu Xingyao and signed a transfer agreement for the Legend private server. Liu Xingyao transferred 800,000 from computer online banking.
Lu Yang transferred all the administrator's account, source code, and USB flash drive to the other party.
The bills were settled by the end of August, and there was some money in the two days of September, but it was not important anymore, Lu Yang gave it all to Liu Xingyao.
Liu Xingyao held the USB flash drive in his hand and sighed: "You are such a business genius. You made so much money in one summer vacation."
Lu Yang took out a flower stick from Liu Xingyao's desk and said, "We people have worked hard for ten years before we are qualified to sit and drink coffee with a rich second generation like you."
Liu Xingyao said suspiciously: "Didn't you say that you are also the second generation of rich people? Your family runs a factory."
Lu Yang said disdainfully: "My family runs a factory, which is not as good as yours, which owns mines and real estate."
When it comes to family, Liu Xingyao's expression is a little unnatural, and his thoughts are very rebellious, because others always introduce him like this: This is Mr. Liu's son!
He doesn't want to grow up under the protection of his family, he wants to do something on his own and let his father see it for himself!
Originally, Liu Xingyao wanted to invite Lu Yang in the evening. Lu Yang still had to worry about renting a house. He had to go to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to register a company tomorrow. There were too many things to do.
He had no choice but to make an appointment with Liu Xingyao until the next time. Before leaving, Liu Xingyao gave Lu Yang a platinum membership card for the bathing center.
"This bath center is opened by my uncle. You can use this card to play for free."
"Thank you, Brother Liu!"
Lu Yang came out of Wangyu Internet Cafe and looked at the membership card in his hand. Why does Liu Xingyao think I like to go to that kind of place?
However, this person was still worth getting along with. Lu Yang did not mention the profits of these two days in September, but gave them to Liu Xingyao, which contained a small amount of 10,000 yuan.
Liu Xingyao knew that he was getting a little advantage, so he gave Lu Yang an unlimited use bath center membership card.
He likes to deal with people who can understand everything clearly. Lu Yong is this kind of person, Meng Xiaopeng is also this kind of person, Chen Wei is also the same...
