Chapter 1039 Free Antivirus

"Swordsman Love Online" is an online game where only high-level players can truly experience the fun of the game!

"By the way, Minister Qiu, remember to prevent account theft from happening. Now that players have finally reached a high level, if their account is lost or stolen, the blow to the players will be self-evident!" Lin Feng warned.

.

Qiu Xin nodded. In fact, this problem is not only a problem for "Swordsman Love Online", but also a problem for all online games. Although "Second World" launched the "Second World DNA" anti-theft "Heizazi", people who bought it

There are millions of people, but more players do not buy because they are too expensive. If a Trojan account hacking incident occurs, these players who have not purchased these anti-theft tools will definitely suffer heavy losses. You can imagine the disappointment and depression at that time. Although players

To a large extent, account hacking is caused by logging into some unhealthy websites or gossip forums, and being planted with Trojans without your knowledge.

To a certain extent, this is the fault of the players themselves. But the customer is God, God is depressed, God is unhappy, and the unlucky ones are these enterprises or companies that need "God".

"Everyone, do you have any good ideas?" Lin Feng asked, tapping his fingers on the table.

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, there is no good solution for a while. I have used all the methods that should be used, such as price reduction and promotion of anti-virus software, the launch of absolutely safe anti-theft tools, the launch of electronic security cards, etc., but not

Players find it troublesome because they don't want to spend more money. As a result, account hackers are extremely rampant and the "second world" network security department is particularly troubled.

"Boss, I think the best way is to let all players install our 'net shield' to protect their computers. Now our company's 'net shield' can protect 100% of Trojans and 99.7% of viruses on the market (

Refers to viruses that have been discovered but have never been widely popular on the market (a conservative estimate of 0.3%). As long as players install one on their computers, they can basically prevent account theft incidents from happening, and at the same time, they can also provide protection for players' computers!

” - said Zhang Yuan, Minister of Cybersecurity Department.

Lin Feng looked at Li Yuan. This man who developed the network shield for his company was also Liu Yingying's former classmate. Later, at a class reunion, Lin Feng met him and learned that he was working at "Rising" as the technical director.

He poached him and became the director of his company's complete network protection department (Kevin Mitnick is invisible due to his special status and does not have any real power, but he can mobilize all resources through Lin Feng's authorization).

Li Yuan looked at Lin Feng and continued.

"Boss, for now, the key is to make these players willing to install our 'Network Shield'." Li Yuan frowned and said.

It is not an easy thing to make players willingly install "Network Shield". There are too many anti-virus softwares on the market now. Although "Network Shield" charges a low fee, it only costs 50 cents a day, and the monthly usage fee is only 15 yuan.

But even for this 15 yuan, many players are unwilling to use it. It’s simple, they have more “free” anti-virus software to use. Of course, the so-called “free” does not mean that it is really free, but that it has been cracked.

The latest genuine anti-virus software can be downloaded and used by anyone for free.

Under the premise of an absolutely free lunch, no player would be willing to pay for anything charged, even if it is only 15 yuan, which is only 15 yuan a month. In this regard, Lin Feng can only lament that the Chinese people are too poor. Of course.

, it can only be said that the Chinese people have become accustomed to free things, and have forgotten the hard work and hard work that the original creators have put in many times. In Lin Feng's view - if everyone is not too tight, please support it.

It’s better to get the genuine version.

"If players are afraid of spending money and don't want to install the 'Network Shield', then if we make the 'Network Shield' free, then players will still be willing to install it!" Lin Feng said carefully.

What, free! - When Li Yuan heard this, he immediately became anxious.

"Boss, this 'Network Shield' was developed by dozens of our technicians day and night. If it is free, doesn't it mean that it is completely worthless. What does this make us technicians think?" Li Yuan stood up a little jumpy.

.

Although "Net Shield" has sold millions of copies before, it only accounts for a very small market share compared to China's anti-virus software market, and the future is very bright. Li Yuan believes that with the development of the Internet,

As more and more people use computers and connect to the Internet, viruses will spread throughout the network like a plague, destroying the harmony and tranquility of the network. At this time, special protection tools like "Network Shield" are needed.

To protect the safety of users, prevent computers from being damaged by viruses, and prevent the leakage of some private personal information, such as phone books, various account information, etc.

In Li Yuan's view, it is very reasonable for users to pay a small fee for these personal privacy that cannot be leaked. If Lin Feng makes it free, not only will the hard work of the technical staff who have worked hard to develop the software be wiped out, but also

It also gave up on this market with unlimited prospects.

Seeing Li Yuan blushing and having a thick neck, Qiu Xin and others on the side quickly comforted him, telling him to calm down and not get too excited. Everyone could understand Li Yuan's excitement, after all, who could it be, and what he had worked hard to develop was released for free?

, which is tantamount to denying their hard work.

Lin Feng didn't expect that Li Yuan would be so excited. But think about it, when I was reading novels on "".com" back then (before rebirth), the authors also hated the pirates. After all, they worked hard to code, but they were plagiarized in large numbers.

, this is a problem for those who work hard for ten hours a day and suffer from cervical spondylosis, lumbar spondylosis, sharp decline in vision, and even suffer from various psychological diseases due to sitting in front of the computer for a long time, or long-term lack of exercise and lack of sunlight, resulting in sallow complexion and thin skin.

, for a pale-faced writer, it is indeed unfair and even cruel.

After waiting for Li Yuan to vent and recover, Lin Feng poured Li Yuan a cup of tea.

"Li Yuan, I can understand your state of mind, but you have to understand that this market is like this. Users have become accustomed to free lunches and are unwilling to pay for anything on the Internet. Although I was cheated by vendors for dozens of dollars when buying clothes outside,

Hundreds of people are willing, but they are unwilling to invest a little money for their own computer protection. This is the way this society is currently, and this is one of the reasons why China's software industry cannot take off." Lin Feng said seriously.

Everyone nodded. In fact, in China, not only the software industry is like this, but the game industry is even more serious. Originally, there were many excellent game development companies in the country, but because of rampant piracy, they ended up unable to make ends meet. In the end, they had no choice but to close down and change careers.

Even "Second World", a multinational game company with a market value of nearly 100 billion US dollars, its main game business is online games. This online game cannot be pirated. This is due to the harsh domestic environment. And the remaining

, the only few stand-alone games are aimed at the player consumer group, which is mainly European and American players, not domestic players.

This is sad to say, but it is reality!

"Since the market is like this, if we can't change the market for the time being, then let's go with the market! Linghu Chong said - there are some things we can't control, we can only control ourselves. Since the market is like this, then we should change ourselves and go

Adapt to the market and then occupy the market!" Lin Feng said.

Everyone nodded. Although Lin Feng brought up Linghu Chong's famous saying, which was a bit laughable, it was indeed true. People cannot change the world, so they will be assimilated by the world.

"Boss, what do you mean? After making the 'Internet Shield' free, are you going to use the overall profits of the 'Second World' to make up for it?" Li Yuan said a little frustrated.

In his opinion, what Lin Feng said is not impossible to assimilate with the market. After "Net Shield" is free, relying on Net Shield's leading anti-virus technology, it is enough to become the most popular anti-virus software. After all, for players, a

Free anti-virus protection software is absolutely necessary. And when choosing between different anti-virus protection software, players will definitely choose the free one, even if it is slightly worse, not to mention that the technology of "Network Shield" is at the leading level in the industry.

People who need anti-virus protection software are not just gamers. More office workers also need it. The information in their computers is undoubtedly more precious than that of gamers. Compared with online gamers, this group of people

It is said that it occupies more than half of the share of anti-virus protection software. If "Net Shield" can occupy more than 90% of the market by virtue of being free, "Second World" can win a lot of market popularity by relying on "Net Shield" and finally subtly influence these people.

For "second world" users.

China has a population of 1.3 billion, of which about 400 million are young people. However, there are currently only tens of millions of online game users, and the market prospects are huge! From this perspective, it is not impossible for the "Internet Shield" to be free.

Lin Feng nodded and shook his head, leaving everyone including Li Yuan confused.

"Haha, it is indeed a feasible way to temporarily use the overall profits of the 'Second World' to cover the expenses of the 'Network Shield'. However, that can only be temporary, not permanent. There is no department in the 'Second World' that loses money.

I believe that as long as they are developed properly and operated properly, all departments in our 'Second World' can bring huge profits to the company!" Lin Feng said.

Li Yuan looked confused. Since "Internet Shield" is free, how can he make money!

Lin Feng smiled.

"Haha, the 'Network Shield' is free only in the initial stage. In order to let as many people in the market use our company's 'Network Shield', it is feasible to choose free of charge in the initial stage, but it will never be free forever!" Lin Feng declared again.

Li Yuan was completely confused.

"Haha, we can imitate Tencent!" Lin Feng raised his eyebrows and showed a sly smile.

Imitate Tencent?——Everyone was stunned, not understanding what Lin Feng meant.

"Everyone, did Tencent have membership services when it first launched 'qq'?" Lin Feng said.

"No!" Everyone nodded. When Tencent launched "qq", it was completely free, but then it launched membership services...

When everyone thought of this, their eyes lit up, and they seemed to have understood what Lin Feng meant.

"Haha, the same is true for us. We launch a free version of 'Net Shield'. After it takes over the market, on top of the free version, we launch a membership version and add some advanced services to provide players with more convenient and faster services.

, to collect membership service fees." Lin Feng said.

When everyone heard this, they immediately clap their hands with joy! Yes, it is indeed a feasible way to imitate Tencent and launch membership services. You must know that since Tencent launched the "qq" membership service, its profits have skyrocketed. Don't look at the opening of "qq"

Members of the membership service account for one-tenth of the users of "qq", but compared to Tencent's "qq" user base of more than 200 million, there are only one-tenth of the members. This is an extremely objective number.

Judging from this data, it can be said that a "qq" user owns a computer, and each computer needs anti-virus protection software. If membership services are launched in the future, even if it is only one-twentieth of the activation rate, "

The profits of "Net Shield" will far exceed the current level.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan has already excitedly started gearing up. If this is true, then "Network Shield" is now free of charge, which is undoubtedly a very successful business method.

"By the way, boss, 'qq' members have many privileges. For example, when other 'qq' users come online, they can remind members, such as faster membership upgrades, etc., but our 'Network Shield' cannot provide these services!

Li Yuan frowned and said.

When Lin Feng heard this, he laughed.

"Li Yuan, compared to the services provided by 'qq', we can provide more services. And they are definitely worth the money!" Lin Feng shook his head and said.

"What service!" Li Yuan was stunned.

"For example, after we launch the 'Net Shield' membership version, we can automatically retrieve the latest versions of software installed on computers and provide automatic updates. You must know that now, there are more and more software installed on computers, but the corresponding number of these software

There are more and more latest versions, and not all users will search for updated versions of some software every day. To put it more bluntly, many users may not even know where to look for updated versions of these software," Lin Feng said.

Everyone nodded. Isn’t that right? Although more and more people use computers, most people only use computers to surf the Internet, watch movies, and play games. As for other things, they simply don’t understand, don’t understand, and don’t understand. As for updates

These softwares are even more like the Arabian Nights.

If "Net Shield" provides this kind of service, I believe many users will be very satisfied with this function.

"In addition to automatically searching and updating software versions, we can also provide detection functions for users' computer hardware, so that users can clearly know what type of CPU, hard drive, and graphics card are inside their computers, so that all players can know what they are. And

We can also provide computer optimization services to help users automatically detect and eliminate system junk software and provide optimization services!" Lin Feng said.

Scared! - Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Lin Feng was equivalent to integrating several computer optimization software and auxiliary software on the market. However, these software are very needed by players, and almost every computer must have them.

It is indispensable, but in the past, players had to install a lot of software and click on different software every time, which was very troublesome. Now, Lin Feng has integrated it, which undoubtedly saves a lot of links for all users. I believe there will definitely be users who will pay attention to this.
