Vol 2 Chapter 220: Hu Run is here

Chapter 220 Hu Run is Here

The monthly service fee of "NetShield" is extremely cheap-3 yuan, only 1 dime a day, you can enjoy the service of one month of genuine anti-virus software. Li Yuan is extremely opposed to the low cabbage price set by Lin Feng. I think this is an insult to the efforts of all "NetShield" development and technical personnel, and believe that the minimum monthly service fee should also be more than 10 yuan.

Lin Feng can understand Li Yuan's anger. After more than half a year of hard work, the proud product developed by the entire development team was sold at a low price for cabbage by himself. It is strange not to be angry, but Lin Feng also has his own reasons.

Rising is now the dominant anti-virus software market, with a market share of 80%. The remaining market is also occupied by companies such as Jiangmin, Kaspersky, and Symantec. If Lin Feng’s "Net Shield" wants to squeeze into this market, he must think Something unusual. It is Lin Feng’s strategy to cancel the listing and directly provide services to charge monthly fees.

Although Li Yuan agrees with this, he can't agree with the monthly service of only 3 yuan. However, Lin Feng's next reason caused Li Yuan to shut up completely.

Piracy! Piracy! Piracy!

Regardless of whether it is the software industry or the stand-alone game industry in China, the biggest enemy is not that the software is not good, it is not that there are no consumers, and it is not the so-called insufficient consumption power in China, but piracy. The hateful pirates plagiarize the programs that programmers have racked their brains to develop and sell them cheaply. Under this absolutely fatal blow, all the software and game industries in China have been devastated.

Although it seems that consumers are getting benefits, in the long run, it has dealt a fatal blow to the entire industry. China's software industry is not as good as India's, and the game industry is far behind Japan. The toxic effect of piracy in it is not negligible.

Facing Lin Feng's pirated poisoning theory, Li Yuan completely lost his voice. Originally, the piracy industry was not too developed last year. The anti-theft technologies of many companies have allowed software or games to survive the initial release period. However, since Lin Feng’s online game was launched, it has been in the competition between game companies and plug-in manufacturers. , Which indirectly promotes the innovation of piracy technology, and also makes a newly listed software often sold in the morning, and piracy comes out in the afternoon. I have to say, it makes people very sad.

Lin Feng can only say that the butterfly effect is really everywhere.

In the end, Li Yuan reluctantly agreed to Lin Feng’s monthly service fee for selling "NetShield" at a price of 3 yuan.

However, what Li Yuan did not expect was that under the bombardment of information from "Pacific Computer Network" and "Zhongguancun Online", "NetShield" became the most anticipated software by netizens in September. Especially real-time monitoring technology, fast anti-virus technology, and extremely low prices. On the first day of listing, the number of downloads exceeded 1.2 million. By the next day, all major software download sites across the country had downloaded more than 2.5 million copies in total. However, more than 50% of the monthly service fees are paid through payment platforms such as bank cards and mobile phones, which means that at least 1.25 million customers have purchased the service fees of "NetShield".

Can cause such a good performance, can only blame "Net Shield" is too cheap. At 3 yuan a month, you can enjoy the absolute security maintenance of your computer if you eat one less meal prematurely. Now just for the service fee of 1.25 million users, Lin Feng can also have a net income of 3.75 million per month.

Compared with Rising’s sales of around 80,000 sets of anti-virus software in January, it can only bring more than 8 million in revenue. Except for the cost, and feedback from various software stores, the profit is only on the same level as the "NetShield". However, "NetShield" has monthly service fees, while Rising's listing and sales model is free for 3 years. This calculation makes "NetShield" more profitable.

In response to the 3 yuan monthly service fee of "NetShield" and its popularity after its listing, major anti-virus software companies, led by Rising, strongly condemned Lin Feng's unfair competition, believing that it was killing chickens and getting eggs. Lin Feng directly ignored the complaints of these companies. It is also directly released through "Pacific Software Network" and "Zhongguancun Online"-the declaration of a permanent 3 yuan monthly service fee for Netdun. The angry Rising and other companies vomited blood for three liters, and almost never filed a lawsuit against Lin Feng for monopoly.

However, under the advice of lawyers, companies such as Rising finally dispelled this idea. After all, although Lin Feng's methods are suspected of improper operation, after careful calculation, Lin Feng's "net shield" profit is reasonable, even if it is reported, there is definitely no chance of winning. In the face of this situation, companies such as Rising were in trouble.

Is it to adopt Linfeng’s sales model, cancel the listing, directly rely on the monthly service fee, or continue to choose the current sales model? In a dilemma, no matter the choice, it is a difficult decision for software companies such as Rising.

Damn Lin Feng, he played his cards out of common sense, it was terrible! ——Rising boss Wang Xin cursed secretly in his heart.

At the same time, Lin Feng made the situation worse, and spared no effort to attack the fragile Rising and other company bosses' injured hearts. Lin Feng used two of the most authoritative computer websites in the country to compare "NetShield" with several other antivirus software. No surprises, NetShield won all of them, which also strengthened the determination of netizens to use NetShield. This also made Lin Feng the first taste of the power of the media when the bosses of many anti-virus software companies were itching.

Those who control public opinion, control the world!

While Rising and other companies continued to talk to "NetShield", Lin Feng received a call from an unexpected person.

This person is no one else. He is a British man with great influence in China, and even a foreigner—Hu Run, who has influenced the Chinese economy to a certain extent.

Lin Feng was extremely surprised that he would actually receive a call from Hu Run, but Hu Run's proficient Mandarin came clearly through the call, and he invited Lin Feng to do an interview. Before he was reborn, he could only see the Hurun rich list in newspapers and magazines, as well as the interview with Hurun. This interview with Hurun is undoubtedly an affirmation of Lin Feng's commercial achievements over the past year.

Lin Feng readily responded.

auzw.com Hu Run, born in Luxembourg in 1970, graduated from Durham University in the United Kingdom, studied Chinese at Renmin University of China, studied Japanese in Japan, and is fluent in German, French, Luxembourgish, Portuguese, and Japanese Wait for seven languages. He created the "100 Rich List" in 1999 and is known as the "godfather" figure in the study of China's private economy. In 1999, just because of personal hobbies, Hu Run and his assistants compiled a ranking of the richest entrepreneurs in mainland China, and published it in English for the American Forbes magazine. So far, Hurun has written the Forbes Chinese mainland rankings once a year.

Every October is the time when the Hurun Rich List in Mainland China is announced. Before the rich list is announced, Hurun is used to interviewing a man of the year to discuss his path to success. This year, Hurun's goal is Lin Feng. In more than a year, this leader has set off a frenzy of online games in the world, and has a local fast food that can compete with McDonald's and KFC in China. The development of c2c has become the most popular online personal trading platform in China.

Especially recently, the "Second World" has successfully landed in Taiwan, South Korea, and Japan, turning it into a multinational company, and issued a crazy declaration to challenge the Japanese game industry in Japan.

Hu Run is naturally very interested in such a man in the midst of such a young age. In particular, the more he studied Lin Feng, the more Hu Run realized that his success was incredible. It seemed to be luck, but Lin Feng's extraordinaryness was everywhere.

Hu Run and Lin Feng met at the Bund in Shanghai. On a clear afternoon, with blue sea and blue sky, and another cup of latte coffee, Hu Run believes that today's interview must be a success. It is also of great help to the study of the Chinese economy in the new century.

"Here, sir. It's 115 yuan in total." The taxi driver had stopped for half a minute, but the foreigner in the back seat seemed to be lost in thought and did not notice that he had arrived. The driver had to remind him.

"Ah, oh, thank you!" Hu Run shook his head, just thinking about what it would be like to meet Lin Feng for the first time, and lost consciousness for a while. After all, Lin Feng's personality is also extremely interesting.

The online game tycoon who is called by the media as loving the country and the beauty more, he does not hesitate to offend almost all the rich in Hong Kong but also to testify to the good citizens of their children. In the press conference, he pointed the **** with the Sun and challenged the madness of the Japanese game industry in a high-profile manner in Japan. Declaration, which one is the real Lin Feng?

Hu Run smiled and handed the taxi driver 150 yuan.

"Uh, first... are you Hu Run? That Hu Run is the Hu Run, right?" When the taxi driver handed Hu Run the change, he looked at Hu Run and cried out with excitement.

"Haha, yes, I am Hu Run." Hu Run smiled slightly. After so many years in China, only after making the Hurun China Rich List, will he be recognized. This also made Hu Run a little sense of accomplishment.

"Haha! You are really Hu Run. I finally got a big shot today! By the way, Mr. Hu, who are on the list this year? Do you know how much money they have?" the taxi driver exclaimed excitedly.

Hu Run couldn't bear the noise of the taxi driver, and after barely coping with a few sentences, he got off the car immediately.

"Mr. Hu, my name is Tan Xiongwen. Next time I take the car, I will definitely call me. My phone number is 138xxxxxxxxxx..." The driver's excessive enthusiasm made Hu Run too much to bear, so he nodded and hurried away.

"Mr. Hu, here." Lin Feng heard a noisy voice yelling from a distance. Looking at it, a blond foreigner smiled bitterly. It was Hu Run who quickly called Hu Run over.

"Dong Lin, I didn't expect you to come first. Ashamed, ashamed!" Hu Run said a little sorry.

"Haha, Mr. Hu is serious. In China, I am a lot younger than Mr. Hu, and I should wait for Mr. Hu to be so." Lin Feng didn't care about it. Instead, he took the opportunity to win the relationship with Hu Run.

"Dong Lin, I have to admit that there is a big gap between you and the rumors of the outside world. The rumors that Lin Dong is young and ambitious, very frivolous and arrogant, now it seems like an old Chinese saying goes: hearing is false, seeing is believing "Hu Run smiled and sat down.

"Haha, yes, Mr. Hu..."

"Dong Lin, call me rupert (Rupert), be so kind." Hu Run reminded.

"Haha, then don't always call me Lin Dong, just call me by name." Lin Feng also reminded Hu Run.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Lin Feng, this time I am here only for a simple interview, to discuss your success, and to consult your views on China's economic development in the future." Hu Run took out his notebook and pen. This is his habit, which is also different from the difference between him and the reporter. Usually reporters will take out the tape recorder for interviews, but it is often difficult to get the interviewee to speak out. This is a big taboo for Hu Run, who is eager to get the most true and reliable news. Therefore, only a pen is used to record. Only in this way can the interviewee be assured that the content of the conversation will not be leaked.

After all, even if Hurun really leaked out the sensitive topics of conversation, the interviewee just had to deny the account. If there is a tape recorder, the conversation is recorded, it is really indistinguishable.

"Lin Feng, my first question..."
