When Penguin found out about this, everyone, including Pony, was dumbfounded.
The senior executives of Penguin, who had not experienced the battle of thousands of teams in the future, had never seen such a money-burning game.
One hundred million a day. If this money was piled up and thrown into the lake, it would make a sound.
However, the condoms had been burned away without a sound.
If it wasn't for the abnormal data on Penguin, they wouldn't even know.
The condoms were already at their doorstep.
At this moment, in the office in the old building of Saige Digital Technology Park,
The faces of the group of higher-ups were so gloomy that water could drip out.
"Think of a way to deal with it?”
Pony asked.
"I don't think it's a big deal. Let's just let them continue burning money like this. I want to see how much money they have to burn!”
Zhang Zhidong said.
Although everyone had such thoughts in their hearts, there was a problem that everyone ignored, or rather, they deliberately did not think about it.
That was, once this money-burning operation made the users get used to using condoms.
No one could guarantee that they would not return to QQ.
Especially recently, QQ users who usually logged in at Internet cafes could not log in.
It was fine for a short period of time, but once it was too long, whether people would forget QQ was also a problem.
But knowing was one thing, and how to counterattack was another.
They couldn't possibly ban the use of condoms from all internet cafe owners in the country.
After all, it was the beginning of 2004, not the huge goose factory in the future.
The energy of the penguins could not be compared to a decade later.
In fact, the solution was very simple. Penguin also started to burn money.
But the problem was that Penguin itself had gone through several rounds of financing, and half of its shares were in the hands of the capital.
Everything in it needed to be supervised by capital.
Whether MIH in South Africa was willing to let Penguin start the money-burning mode was not a problem for now.
Even if MIH agreed, what was the benefit of Penguin doing this?
Penguin, which was originally the overlord of instant messaging, had 300 million registered users.
Limited by the number of netizens in the entire flower garden, the subsequent growth could be said to be weak.
This was different from the new intruders of instant messaging like TT. Others could burn 100 million yuan to increase the number of users by tens of millions every day.
If Penguin continued to burn like this, it wouldn't be able to gain too many users every day.
The gains outweighed the losses!
Besides, Penguin was not yet on the market, and its annual income in 2003 was only that much.
735 million Chinese dollars.
And this was not even net profit.
Even if he burned all of them, he could only burn them for a week.
To put it simply, the penguin couldn't afford to burn it, nor did it have the guts to.
After thinking about it, Pony still couldn't think of a way to break out of this situation.
After all, MT was different from other companies. They didn't play any tricks with Penguin, but they played an open scheme.
He said,"We're rich, so what!"”
Pony, who was at his wit's end, turned the Legend laptop on his desk over.
The login was the TT space.
"What do you think of this?" Pony asked.
After all, only by knowing yourself and your enemy could you win every battle. After knowing that the cause of this incident was the MT, he naturally needed to understand his opponent.
In the end, he was surprised to find that the MT was like a replica of Penguin.
If it was another icon, he wouldn't even be able to tell which was QQ and which was TT.
QQ had all the functions, but none of them were bad.
For example, the QQ show, the other party also had a TT show.
Penguin had a Red Diamond Aristocrat, but MT had a Red Crown Aristocrat.
Pony was dumbfounded.
Penguin had always been the only one who copied other people's works and made them more famous than the original.
But now, it had been plagiarized, which made Pony's liver very uncomfortable.
However, when he started playing the game, Pony immediately fell in love with the app. If this was developed by Penguin, he would have been able to use it.
He definitely wanted to applaud, but when he thought about his opponent, his liver started to hurt again.
Hearing Pony's question, everyone in the office began to familiarize themselves with the TT space.
After playing for a while, even they had to admit that this was a very good application.
"Torry, how long will it take for QQ to have this app?”
Pony asked Zhang Zidong.
"It will take at least a month!"
Zhang Zidong said,
Hundreds of people from Yuanhang Technology worked tirelessly for two weeks to complete the project. In the end, they even made several upgrades.
Zhang Zidong said a month, which was already the fastest time.
Pony Ma also knew Zhang Zidong's difficulties. The R D department had a lot of work to do.
Now that he suddenly wanted to develop the space, it was very difficult.
"Alright, I want to see the finished product in a month!”
Pony looked at Xu Chenhua and said,"
"Go and investigate this MT company in detail. I need a detailed report tomorrow. I have a feeling that we have met our match!”
Xu Chenhua could only brace herself and agree.
Just as Penguin realized the seriousness of the matter, the crazy money-burning activities of MT continued.
This kind of crazy spending had never happened before.
Including the three major portals, Ali, and other Internet companies, they all looked at TT.
Everyone was guessing what was going on with this godlike company that had suddenly appeared.
Why was he so rich and what kind of background did he have?
However, apart from knowing that Yuanhang Technology was a newly established internet company in the Imperial Capital's International Trade Building,
There was no other information at all.
Even the company's legal representative was just an ordinary person.
This made all the internet companies and media collectively blind.
At this moment, what was Lin Xuan doing?
He gave Pang Shengdong 1 billion Chinese dollars to burn, and the effect was immediate.
In just one week, the initial 40 million registered users of TT had increased to 120 million users.
Moreover, it was increasing by tens of millions every day.
After this wave of money was used up, the number of registered users of TT could reach 150 million.
Although it was only half of QQ, it had surpassed Messenger to become the second most popular online communication software.
The results were certain.
However, the internet industry had always been a winner-take-all industry.
Therefore, the next thing that MT needed to do was to consolidate these users.
Otherwise, after burning money, these users would go to QQ again. Wouldn't that 1 billion be wasted?
However, Lin Xuan was not worried about this.
He was already secretly developing some other trump cards.
For example, the game development department of the B3 line.
He started several Mini games development projects.
Lin Xuan handed these matters to Pang Shengdong.
