Chapter 44 Squatting Domain Names

The research institute was eager to publish newspapers for political achievements, which disrupted Zhou Buqi's overall arrangement.

There is no way but to speed up the pace and deal with the changing situation.

Back in the dormitory at night, Zhou Buqi called one by one, and asked the ten veterans of the Ten Schools Entrepreneurship Alliance to appear in the student activity center of Beike on time at ten o'clock this Saturday morning to announce something important.

Then, he called Guo Pengfei and told him to meet him at the cafeteria of Wanxiu Garden at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, and he had something important to do.

After thinking for a while, he sent another text message to Wen Zhixia: "Did you find the house?"

"How can it be so fast!"

It seems that Mr. Wen is also a text message expert, and the reply speed is very fast.

"Do you have a QQ number?"

"XXXXXXXXXX, use msn to add this mailbox."

Well, high-end people use msn.

Zhou Buqi logged on to msn and quickly contacted Wen Zhixia. Her online name is JuliaWen, and she quickly typed and asked, "When will your house expire?"

JuliaWen: "October one."

Zhou Bu was angry: "Isn't it soon? There are still ten days."

Julia Wen: "Yeah."

Zhou Bu was angry: "Look for it quickly, I have to move out quickly."

Julia Wen: "What's wrong?"

Zhou Bu was angry: "The tide of the times cannot be resisted, so we can only make great strides forward."

JuliaWen: "You treat me like a little girl?"

Zhou is not angry: "It's true, my career is going to make great strides, I need a good rest environment, the dormitory can't do it."

JuliaWen: "What happened?"

Zhou Bu was angry: "It's hard to explain in one word, and you will know later. It is estimated that with their review speed, it will be published in the newspaper after October 1."

JuliaWen: "In the newspaper? What?"

Zhou Bu was angry: "Don't ask, hurry up and find a room."

Julia Wen: "I'm in such a hurry, where can I find it? I can't even find my own apartment. Do you know how tight that kind of single apartment is? You can't find it if you want it."

Zhou Bu was angry: "What about the others? Two bedrooms and one living room or three bedrooms and one living room?"

Julia Wen: "That's a lot, but the price is also high. Why, boss Zhou is willing to pay a big price?"

Zhou Bu was angry: "It's really not possible, just choose a two-bedroom and one living room."

JuliaWen: "Whatever you want, I have no money anyway."

Zhou Bu was angry: "Okay, let's do it this way. I'll take care of the money, and you'll be in charge of finding a house. That's it. I'll make a phone call and get in touch later."

After offline msn, Zhou Buqi looked excited.

It seems that Mr. Wen's vigilance is very weak, much worse than that of Xue Baoshan.

There is a big chance.

The phone call came from an unfamiliar number, and after Zhou Buqi answered it, it was a very rough male voice.

"Hello? Is it Zhou Buqi?"

"Yeah, are you?"

"I'm your Brother Liang!"

"Um?"

"Liang Fa! We played football together, forgot?"

A torrent of Zhou Buqi's thoughts gushed out instantly, and when he remembered, he said in surprise, "Brother Liang Fa? How do you have my number?"

The two are high school alumni. Liang Fa is two years older than him and often played football together in high school.

"What's more, you don't know to contact me when you come to Beike?" Liang Fa's enthusiastic voice was mixed with complaints.

"You are also in Beike? Sorry, sorry, I really don't know, I'm too busy these days, I'm dizzy." Zhou Buqi laughed.

Meeting an old friend in a foreign country is also a kind of fate.

Liang Fa laughed and said, "Okay, don't come here, boy. This Friday, fellow villagers will gather at the gate of the cafeteria in Hongbo Garden at 6 pm. Everyone gather together, don't refuse!"

"ah……"

Zhou Buqi really didn't want to go.

Liang Fa laughed and said, "Didn't you like school belle in high school? She's here too!"

"Who is it?"

"Wu Yu!"

"I'm dizzy!"

"Okay, that's it, you have to come!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Buqi smiled wryly.

He is so busy with starting a business that he is dizzy, how can he have time to play the poor tune of the fellow?

But there is no way, when he was in high school, Liang Fa still took good care of himself and couldn't refuse.

Sighing a few times, Zhou Buqi shook his head to clear his mind.

As the formula of milk tea appeared in the newspapers, his entrepreneurial pace must be accelerated.

To accelerate, there must be funding.

To be honest, Zhou Buqi has never felt pressure on funds. He is a reborn person, so it should not be too easy to make money.

After thinking for a while, he took a diary and began to write: "Youku, Tudou, Tmall, 360, Ganji, Meituan, Renren, Xiaonei, Douyu, Weibo, Lashou, Fanfou, WeChat , Jingdong, Douyin, 58.com, Huya, Douban, Suning, Xiaomi, Didi, Toutiao, Pinduoduo, Kuaishou, LeTV, Lily, Mogujie, PPTV, Qunar, Zhihu, Mango, Kiwi, Maoyan, Sticky rice……"

After the first page is written, there is a second page: "Whatsapp, Quora, Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, Coursera, Reddit, Tumblr, Buzzfeed, Youtube, Hulu, Spotify..."

...

The next day, Wanxiuyuan canteen.

Guo Pengfei was having breakfast, and asked while eating: "You said you want to register a domain name?"

"Yes, you know how to do it?" Zhou Buqi asked after taking a sip of soy milk.

Guo Pengfei was eating, and said vaguely: "Xiaoyi, do you want to make a website?"

"Roughly the same."

"Well, just go back to the Internet Center and find Teacher Han, she is in charge, and she maintains and operates our school's forum."

"No, let's find the service provider directly." Zhou Buqi rejected his proposal.

"Why?" Guo Pengfei was very puzzled, "It's not expensive, the school supports us to build a personal website, and there is no agency fee."

Zhou Buqi drank up the soy milk in the cup, wiped the corner of his mouth with his hand casually, and said two words: "The amount is large."

"large?"

Guo Pengfei was slightly taken aback, savoring his meaning, then opened his eyes wide, "How many domain names do you want to register?"

"I don't know how many repetitions there are, but there must be at least one or two hundred." Zhou Buqi said lightly.

"Fuck!"

Guo Pengfei immediately understood what he meant, and said in a broken voice, "You want to be a domain name boss?"

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "What kind of domain name master am I? I can register hundreds of domain names at most. If I'm lucky, I can earn some pocket money. Other domain name masters have tens of thousands of domain names in their hands, which is incomparable."

Guo Pengfei pondered for a while, and said, "If this is the case, then we have to go to the telecommunications network provider, and go there to handle it. One or two hundred domain names can be settled in one day."

"Okay! I'll go then!"

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, as if he saw a bright future.

How bright are the prospects?

For example, JD.com purchased the domain name JD.com at a cost of 30 million, Weibo purchased the domain name weibo.com at a cost of 8 million, and Vipshop purchased the domain name vip.com at a cost of 12 million.

For another example, Xiaomi acquired the domain name mi.com at a cost of US$3.6 million; 360 acquired the domain name 360.com at a cost of US$17 million, which once set a world record for domain name transactions.

However, maintaining a domain name also costs money.

.

The com suffix is ​​an international domain name, and the registration fee is about 300 yuan.

.

The cn suffix is ​​a domestic domain name, and the registration fee is about 100 yuan.

In addition, the domain name cannot be bought out at one time, and the service fee must be paid every year. The international domain name is about 60 yuan per year. If the fee is not renewed, the domain name will be taken back.

I went to the telecommunications network provider, and after inspection, I found that 47 of the 182 domain name URLs provided by Zhou Buqi had been registered, including Tudou, Mango, Vipshop, Kiwi, Suning, Lashou, Lily, The relevant domain name addresses of LeTV, Kaixin.com, etc.

There are 135 left.

The registration fee is 40,000 yuan!

In addition, even if the service fee is only paid for one year, the 135 domain names must be paid in full at a time of 8,000 yuan.

Counting some miscellaneous expenses such as handling fees, it will cost a total of 50,000 yuan!

Zhou Buqi now has 45,000 yuan in his hand, of which 20,000 yuan is the share capital fee Liu Wenbo asked for to start a partnership, and this fee must be returned.

Fortunately, Guo Pengfei had some money in hand, so it was temporarily padded.

In the evening, the two finally returned to school and ate something temporarily in the cafeteria.

"The money owed to you will be given to you in a few days."

"It's okay, there's no rush."

"By the way, how to set up a domain name, do you know?"

"It's very simple. Didn't I give you an address? That's the URL for the telecom company's management background login. After you log in, enter the password they gave you, and you can see the domain name management option. Fill in your IP address, complete the binding of the domain name and IP address. Then call the ftp service provider, and that’s it.”

Zhou Buqi frowned, he is not a computer major, and asked: "Then someone wants my domain name, how can I contact me?"

Guo Pengfei said lightly: "Let's make a website and put your contact information on it. If someone wants to buy it, they will contact you."

"How to operate?"

"Just upload the source file of the webpage after the bundling is successful, it's very simple."

Zhou Buqi rolled his eyes and said angrily, "You said it's easy? Okay, then I'll leave it to you! I'll let you use my computer, and I'll take care of these domain names."

Guo Pengfei twitched the corner of his mouth, "Okay, it's not difficult."

...

After returning to the dormitory, Zhou Buqi seemed to be drained dry.

This is the end.

Really out of money.

If the domain name business cannot generate income as soon as possible, it may delay major events.

It is now late September 2004.

After careful calculation, Ganji.com, Douban.com, 58.com, Qunar.com, and 360 will all be established soon, right?

Come on come on let's talk business!

Genuine goods at a fair price, children without deceit!
