Two days later, another good news came: Qiandu’s Tieba was online.
Originally Qiandu Kan, Sohu and other companies' forums were doing well. Interested people gathered online to exchange and discuss, which was very popular. So people from Qiandu suggested to Li Yanhong that Qiandu could also create a forum. .
However, this proposal was rejected by Li Yanhong.
The forum is good, with a large amount of information, fast information updates, and strong interactivity. However, there are too many forums now. With better resources, Naohu has occupied the largest market share. Behind it, there are also emerging websites such as Xici and Tianya, etc. Shangxinlang, Wangyi, etc. are also building forums. This forum has reached an era of competition among the best.
Isn't there an old saying that I have what others don't have, I have the essence of what others have, and I can transfer the essence of others.
Not only do others have it now, but they have already mastered it, so how can you go in and grab the market
So Li Yanhong came up with another idea, that is, making a Tieba.
The biggest difference between a Tieba and a forum is that you can build it yourself regardless of the sections. For any topic, you can build a Tieba, relying on Qiandu's powerful search function to support the development of this business. In the future, Tieba can also carry out value-added charges, such as membership and so on.
Such an online communication platform, without the constraints of other forum moderators, will definitely develop faster.
And this other company cannot be imitated because it is a communication community based on keyword topics and is closely integrated with search. Accurately grasp user needs and create for interest.
It is not that there are no other search engines in China at this time, but their scale and functions are not comparable to Qiandu. In this way, the core technology is in the hands of Qiandu Company and it can monopolize this market.
Without competition, natural development can occur faster. Even if similar products appear in the future, users have become accustomed to Qiandu’s Tieba. Based on user inertia, Qiandu’s Tieba can still come out on top!
The most important thing is that Tieba was pioneered by Qiandu. Foreign ancient songs or other core search engine companies do not have this product. This makes Qiandu lead its global peers for the first time!
Once it reaches global leadership, the brand value will rise sharply, which will be of great benefit to Qiandu when it goes public next year.
The more anticipated a company is, the faster its stock price will rise after it goes public, and the entrepreneurs who were rewarded with original shares will be able to share more profits.
Li Yanhong once promised those who started his business with him that in the future everyone will become a millionaire, multi-millionaire, or even a billionaire.
The simplest way is to let the company's stock price soar, so that all employees will benefit. Let employees' interests be closely integrated with the company's interests, so as to create the best working atmosphere and allow employees to work harder for the company.
At this time, Tieba has just ended its internal beta and officially started its public beta.
Feng Yu clicked on the page, entered it, and found many problems.
First of all, Tieba has no categories. Although Tieba is an online community where any hobby can become a theme, if someone wants to find similar topics without classification, it will be difficult.
Although Tieba does not need to be managed by the moderators of each classified forum like a forum, without classification, it is still not convenient enough, and it is impossible to steal the users of the forum.
Another thing is that the login page of Tieba is not clear enough. After entering, it is equivalent to a visitor to the forum. It is necessary to cultivate the habit of users to log in, so that when value-added services are launched in the future, they can better generate revenue. Otherwise, no one needs to spend money, and you still have to provide various paid services. When will the compensation be due
…
"Mr. Li, this is Feng Yu. I just heard that Qiandu Tieba has been launched for public testing. This product is the first of its kind in the world. Mr. Li is indeed a great talent." Feng Yu first praised.
"Mr. Feng was very complimentary. This is an idea that everyone put together. I don't dare to take credit for it. However, we are all very confident in this product. We believe that in the future, this product will replace the forum and become the most commonly used online communication community for people." .”
Li Yanhong is also a very proud man. He gave up his high salary in the United States and returned to China to start a business. It has been a very bumpy journey, but now I have finally achieved some results.
Many people did not support many of his ideas at the beginning, but Feng Yu was very supportive, which is also an important reason why Qiandu is able to achieve what it is today.
For example, Qiandu originally provided search engine support to various Internet companies, which was also the source of all Qiandu’s income at that time. Later, Li Yanhong decided to become independent, build an independent search engine website, and start bidding and ranking.
This idea was opposed by all the executives of the company at the time. There would be no income in the short term from doing bidding rankings, and they would lose the source of income from those websites. Qiandu was seeking death!
But Feng Yu told him to just go ahead and do it. If the funds are not enough, it may be a loan or another capital injection by Feng Yu. He will definitely support it to the end.
For this reason, Li Yanhong launched a lightning plan, which was to catch up with or even surpass Guge Company in technology in the short term. Fortunately, they succeeded.
Although most of the search engines on domestic portals use Guge’s technology, and some even use South Korean and Russian technology, Qiandu has survived and is truly technically comparable to Guge.
Of course, Qiandu also spent a lot of money on this. Fortunately, there was Feng Yu's support at the beginning, otherwise Qiandu might not have been able to survive.
If Feng Yu didn't support it at that time, then Feng Yu would have had the opportunity to completely take Qiandu into his pocket. Others didn't know it, but Li Yanhong knew that Gu Ge's major shareholder was also Feng Yu.
He still remembered that Feng Yu had said to him that China should reach the top of the world in search engine technology. I think you can do it. Now he can proudly say loudly: I did it!
Now, Qiandu is the first in the world to launch Tieba. He believes that Qiandu will definitely develop better and better.
"Mr. Li, there is no need to be modest. I just tried this post and found a small problem. I would like to discuss it with you."
"Mr. Feng, please tell me." Li Yanhong frowned a little. Mr. Feng, a person who doesn't understand IT technology, discovered the problem, but those who did the internal testing didn't find it
"First, Tieba does not have categories. I know that any topic can become a discussion community, but what if I want to specifically search for Tieba on a topic of interest? For example, big stars. This is on other forums No, but we can have a celebrity bar on Qiandu’s post bar. I believe we will use the power of stars to attract many fans to join.”
"Second point, the search for Tieba must also be optimized. Some bar owners are just like forum moderators on the Internet. They also have many supporters, so why can't they search by author?"
"Third point, the login page of Tieba is not clear enough. There are a lot of text descriptions on it. I know it is a guide for novices, but it is too complicated. It is also fun to let users discover it by themselves... Of course, these are all These are some of my humble opinions and are for Mr. Li’s reference only.”
Li Yanhong was silent for a long time, then replied with Feng Yu's words just now: "Mr. Feng is a great talent!"
