Chapter 690: Expanding Production Capacity
Is antivirus software free?
Jiang Yong looked confused.
They spend so much effort and money to get anti-virus software just for free?
"Qin Feng, how do you make money back from this?" Jiang Yong felt that he was very easy.
Qin Feng's words made him feel unable to understand and accept them.
If all software is free, what's the point?
Will anyone still develop software in the future?
"Actually speaking, anti-virus software is not very useful. It doesn't mean much!" Qin Feng said, "Any company that develops an anti-virus software can kill almost all viruses in the world!"
Viruses are not terrible at all. In fact, strictly speaking, they are a mutated program set up by some programmers. It’s just that this program has flaws.
Most of these viruses are very simple to kill. Because they have very obvious flaws, for any software engineer who specializes in this field, most viruses are very simple and easy to detect and kill.
Therefore, the charges are inexplicable.
As for why so many viruses are rampant and the viruses are constantly being updated, this is just a gimmick created by the anti-virus software companies themselves.
It can be said that many viruses are originally spread by some anti-virus companies. The reason is also very simple. If there are no viruses, then who will buy anti-virus software?
If no one buys anti-virus software, how can anti-virus companies survive?
Obviously, this is a chicken and egg relationship.
"There is no charge for anti-virus software. We can gain more popularity and let all Internet users have our company's software on their computers!" Qin Feng said, "We can seize the market by relying on free software."
"But there are so many engineers, and we have to pay them!" Jiang Yong said.
"After this, we can all make money back. Besides, once anti-virus software is truly mature, it will not require many professional engineers. On the contrary, we must invest more energy in software security!" Qin Feng said seriously, "
This is the key. Especially as an Internet company, if you cannot protect user data, that will be the biggest failure."
Jiang Yong nodded. He recognized this.
"Okay, let's work hard. Try to seize the market as soon as possible. Especially, our social media software must be released as soon as possible!" Qin Feng said.
Take advantage of the fact that there is no awareness of this aspect in the country, and come up with it first. Once you seize the market, the future will be stable.
Although according to history, it will take two years for the first social software in China to be released. Qin Feng still has a lot of time.
But the sooner you come out, the sooner you can feel at ease. In particular, Qin Feng came up with the cable modem in advance, which increased the domestic broadband speed by more than a hundred times.
It is currently completely unknown what the final result of this network speed acceleration effect will be.
It is uncertain whether other companies will develop it in advance. After all, due to the butterfly effect, many companies may be aware of the business opportunities in this area in advance.
Therefore, Qin Feng must seize every opportunity.
There must be no neglect!
Then, after a busy week.
All universities and colleges across Beijing have installed wired broadband and have entered the Internet world.
Naturally, with the opening of the Internet, there has been interaction between major universities.
Jiuzhou Portal has become a must-see portal for all college students and a platform for them to obtain the latest information every day.
It can even be said that it is the only platform currently.
As for the private sector, many companies are currently applying for broadband. However, the limitations of cable modems make it impossible to improve productivity.
This has also led to the fact that the current network traffic has huge potential, but it cannot be converted into real traffic and data.
Naturally, without data, there are no business opportunities.
"Qin Feng, we are in a bit of trouble." Wang Leilei found Qin Feng.
"What's wrong?" Qin Feng asked, "What's wrong with game development?"
"It's not a game development problem, but we are currently not putting all our energy into online games. However, our mud game is currently played by tens of thousands of people, basically in colleges and universities. In the future, if we
When we launch "Jin Yong Heroes Online", we have two problems, one is the charging problem, and the other is the problem of the number of people online in the game." Wang Leilei said.
"First of all, this game cannot be accessed on the campus network, so it will lose all its current user groups!" Wang Leilei said.
Qin Feng nodded helplessly. Qin Feng naturally knew this. When the campus network was built, the school had an agreement with them that games would never appear.
This point is also agreed upon by all schools at present, and it is absolutely impossible for the school to allow games to enter the campus.
Therefore, it is impossible for games to appear on campus.
Although the campus has Internet access, how can I play games if I cannot download the client?
Of course, Qin Feng and the others could install the client on every computer. But in that case, they would be doing something wrong with the school. This kind of result is definitely not a good result.
"Currently, among the people, the number of computers with Internet access is too small." Wang Leilei frowned and said, "This is also the second thing I want to say, that is, the number of cable modems we produce every month is too small. Our
The production capacity cannot be reached!”
Currently, the production capacity is only 10,000 units per month. Even if it can be increased, the speed of production capacity increase is limited. In this case, only 10,000 cable modems are released every month, so how many of them can be converted into game users?
?
"Currently, the cable modems we supply are mainly supplied by schools and companies. There are very few individuals!" Lei Jun explained.
This is also very helpless. After all, computers have not yet entered thousands of households.
This makes the current network the first choice for schools and companies. Naturally, cable modems will also be given priority in these places.
"So, we must increase production capacity! Otherwise, not many people will use the games we develop here! And all our energy is currently focused on games, which means that our income will depend on online games!" Wang Leilei said.
"We are indeed making money here. But compared to the previous expenses, our current capital chain is also very tight. We must expand production capacity to make money back." Lei Jun said aside.
"And for us, if we don't have enough users, everything we do will be a waste of money!" Jiang Yong also added.
Buying so many servers and hiring so many IT engineers all require money. If you don’t have money, you’ll be in trouble!
