Qin Feng's soft article "Cloud Hard Drive User Guide" undoubtedly opens a new world for everyone.

"Damn, I've been worrying about what to do with too many games and no place to use them! Now it's better." A player said excitedly.

"Yeah, there are a lot of mp3s, too. I don't have enough space. Now it's better!" said a music lover.

"There is also room for my little movie now!" said an action movie enthusiast from an island country.

...

Under the guidance of this user guide, everyone finally understands how to use such a huge cloud space.

Not to mention, this time, a lot of hard disk space is freed up. You can install frequently used games and software.

This means that everyone’s hard drive space will suddenly increase.

And it's much bigger.

"Mr. Qin, the average cloud hard disk ratio now accounts for more than 30%. We have spent more than 30 million to purchase hard disks, and more people are using it. If this continues, our costs will be too high.

"The financial director came over to report.

This is not only the cost of purchasing hard drives, but also the usual maintenance, electricity bills, server expenses, etc., which are all a large amount of money.

But for now, this is not profitable.

It's completely free.

This has no ability to be monetized at all.

Now we have to spend more than 20 million yuan per month on various maintenance tasks. This is too expensive.

This is money!

Of course, you are not afraid of spending money. But if you can’t make money by spending money, there is nothing you can do.

"Here, this is a small intelligent screening program I just wrote!" Qin Feng said, "The technology department will load it into the cloud space."

The function of this small program is very simple and single. The only thing is that it automatically identifies the file type uploaded by netizens. If it is the same, it will delete it by default after it is uploaded.

In this way, a large degree of waste of space can be avoided.

For many users, large files are basically similar. Only some personal files are different. As for personal files, it can be said that they take up very little space and will not cause any financial burden to the company at all.

In this way, economic costs can be saved a lot.

And, from a technical perspective, it is not difficult.

It is just a very simple filtering mechanism. This is also the most commonly used technology in all cloud spaces in later generations. When you upload many files, they will be uploaded instantly because there are already similar ones in the cyberspace.

Therefore, you do not need to transfer additionally.

As for whether errors will be detected, accidental deletion may be different. This is not impossible. For example, if a file is more than 90% identical but slightly different, it may be accidentally deleted.

However, this chance is very small.

Because during the selection, the manufacturing date, modification date, and file size of the source file will be compared.

Only files with exactly the same size and similar dates will be deleted.

After all, any small change will cause the file size to change.

Even if 1 byte changes, the file will be retained and will not be deleted.

Therefore, this technology can reduce the company's operating costs as much as possible.

"Then how do we make money?" the financial director asked.

The financial department, no matter what the technology, they only care about whether it can be profitable.

After all, if a company wants to survive, it cannot just burn money without making money.

Even if you need to burn money like crazy now, you still need to have a profit plan.

If there is no hope of profit at all, then the finance department must stop it, or at least raise objections. As for whether it will be approved in the end, it depends on the CEO's decision.

"There is no way to make money from ordinary players. Except for a little advertising revenue." Qin Feng said.

Advertising revenue? The finance department frowns.

Advertising revenue is really not big. At least the advertising revenue brought by cloud space cannot make up for its investment and operation and maintenance costs.

Of course, if it can attract a lot of popularity and maintain the company's overall operating income, that is also feasible.

For example, if you shut down the cloud space, will the loss of benefits be greater than maintaining the cloud space? If the loss of benefits is greater, then keep it. Otherwise, you cannot keep it.

This is an account.

"The future is a cloud world!" Qin Fengxiao said, "Of course, there are many other aspects of progress needed. For example, big data and AI intelligence!"

Cloud computing, big data, and AI intelligence are the three pillars of the future Internet economy.

Any company that masters these three, even if it only masters one of them, can bring huge and generous profits.

At this stage, it is indeed not profitable. However, the merits are in the present and the benefits are in the future.

However, Qin Feng didn't say much. Some things don't need too much explanation. If you say too much, it will be easily leaked. As long as the core personnel know.

This company belongs to Qin Feng, Jiang Yong and a few others and is not controlled by any capital. Therefore, they can do whatever they want.

The remaining departments are responsible and have the right to question, but they must obey orders.

Otherwise, get out of here if you don’t want to do it!

"Haha, I just said I was right!" Wang Zhidong laughed.

Before this, when Ding Sanshi published the soft article, he was criticized a lot. After all, he followed Qin Feng closely. In Ding Sanshi's soft article, he seemed to be particularly uninformed and stupid.

And now, Qin Feng's soft article has undoubtedly proved his wisdom.

Perhaps, he is not forward-looking on some things, but he has a vision for people.

What does he call this? This is called winning without any moves but with one move at a time.

He doesn't know what he's doing or what's the use. But he just needs to know that Qin Feng has a vision. He can just follow Qin Feng. That's no different.

No, Ding Sanshi kept his 1000m station unchanged, and as a result, many people opened it on qq. Of course, many people also opened his icq.

As a result, Ding Sanshi was the first to launch Cloud Space, but not many people used it.

Do you think this is embarrassing?

Feel aggrieved or not aggrieved!

The more he thinks about it, the happier Wang Zhidong becomes. Now, he’s not at the bottom, is he?

Now he still has Ding Sanshi at the bottom, which is very satisfying.

Of course, he also has something unhappy. That is that the monetization ability of "Need for Speed" is too weak.

Although many players have spent money to buy gold coins to upgrade their cars, there are too few people who spend money. At present, it has been in operation for a month, and the total revenue has only been more than 1 million.

This amount of money is not enough for servers, bandwidth usage, employee salaries and other expenses.

This money is too little.

All I can say is, lose money and make money.

After all, icq's popularity can be maintained at around one million, which is already very good.

This also makes AOL and Boss Jiang very satisfied.
