Chapter 23: [VC invests in the entire track]

Venture Capital Fund Headquarters.
文 Liu Wen, who was sitting in the office, called his assistant and asked, "How has the BlueSpace website developed recently? Is there any market research data?"
Assistant Assistant Nodded and said, "General Manager Liu, we have obtained the latest data on the BlueSpace website. So far, the cumulative number of registered users has reached 14.8 million, 9.5 million active users, and 257 million page views."
"What?" Liu Wenyi was shocked, and subconsciously said, "Why is the proportion of active users so high?"
Not only that, the monthly user growth rate was nearly ten million. This is his most shocking place. This data is too crazy. Compared with the growth data of QQ over the same period, the BlueSpace website almost completely exploded QQ.
The assistant continued: "More than a month ago, BlueSpace launched the photo function. This photo sharing function became popular once it was launched, driving the explosive growth of users. According to the data, only in the recent month, BlueSpace users have uploaded more photos than any other website. "
It is not surprising for Luo Sheng to upload more photos than other websites, because photo sharing is one of the core social functions of BlueSpace. Now even one can be removed. On the current BlueSpace website, the photo function is the core. none of them.
文 Liu Wen thought secretly: "Not to mention absolute success, but the prospect of Bluestar Technology's success is indeed getting brighter and brighter. With the current momentum, maybe we can challenge or even surpass QQ."
I thought that Liu Wen now regrets that she was one step late and didn't get Blue Angel's angel round financing, so Xu Chenghua took the lead.
I can't help but sigh, QQ's sense of smell in the field of social networking is sharper than others.
Judging from the current development momentum, BlueSpace website is definitely the most eye-catching social networking site in the Internet world at present, and the growth rate of users has been comparable to that of QQ. You must know that it has been 5 years since the establishment of QQ and its listing .
BlueThe BlueSpace website of Bluestar Technology has only been more than three months. Although the accumulated users are now less than 15 million, it is still very different from QQ users.
But BlueSpace's growth momentum is too fierce, that's the point.
Liu Wenlima asked: "Can you find out the current financial status of Bluestar Technology? I remember Xu Chenghua was showing off in front of me, as if angel round financing had only taken 1 million. With this data now, users share photos in large numbers It ’s enough to pay for a pot of Internet expenses alone. One million ca n’t help but hit.

His assistant replied: "One month ago, Bluestar Technology expanded the team. Now their company has about 20 or 30 people, and the current development situation, the amount of funds used is getting larger and larger, it is not difficult to speculate that they are combined. The funding should bottom out soon, and I think Bluestar Technology will definitely seek a new round of financing within this month. "
"That makes sense." Liu Wen nodded and said decisively: "Missing the angel round of financing, the pre-A round of financing must not be missed anymore. You should prepare the materials as soon as possible. I will personally visit the founder of Bluestar Technology. "
文 Liu Wen dare to pack tickets. Now it is estimated that not only one of his VCs is staring at Bluestar Technology, but most other venture capital agencies have already followed.
The large investment companies are all strategies of Guangsha.com. They are not investing in any company. They are investing in the entire track. Bluestar Technology may be an outstanding rare racer on this track in the Internet field. Naturally, his VC will not be less.
Since the cold winter, the Internet industry has not been in this situation for a long time, and industry insiders have even concluded that the models that the Internet industry can basically do.
The "BlueSpace phenomenon" now emerging is undoubtedly a slap in the face.
With the passage of a month, the BlueSpace website reached nearly 15 million user registrations. During this time, several new social networking sites suddenly appeared in the industry, all of which are highly imitation BlueSpace models.
However, most of the on-line products are basically semi-finished products, and there are a lot of BUGs, and there is no photo function, because it is still under development, and it will take at least a month or two to go online.
Luo Luosheng launched the photo function is a time difference, development takes time.
The industry is staring at the development of BlueSpace, especially some of the people who research the B community, and found that this company likes to update the website and upload some new content at around 3 or 4 am, so many people stare at midnight.
A typical example is the website development department of QQ, which has one person dedicated to it.
In this situation, Zhao Peng wanted to get R to copy the rhythm.
On the other hand, Blue Star Technology is also staring at the R agency, Xu Yong is spontaneously staring. The rhythm master has recently taken off with a rhythm band online. The R agency on the QQ side is facing his crazy ridicule, basically Treated silently, it was mainly three points weaker.
After all, the eyes of netizens who eat melons are clear. Doing this kind of thing silently is enough. It is reasonable to say that this rhythm is getting more and more fierce, but it is not good for R.
Zhao Peng's strategy is very simple. I think this is "bearing humiliation" and working quietly. As a person of Teng Xun, he knows one thing-user habits.
User habits are a terrible thing. Once established, they are basically stable.
As long as the user develops a user habit in R, the retention rate will go up.
Xu Xuyong also registered an account of the R agency, which is one of his main offensive positions. The R agency did not delete his account. In fact, he wanted to delete it, but the R agency did not think it was a bad thing.
"Boss, sure enough, the shameless R community has finally launched the photo function." Xu Yong shouted immediately, adding a look of indignation and sarcasm, adding: "However, the interface is rotten, and it is not very smooth. Can't wait for the results of rushing online. "
Luo Sheng, who was sitting in the lounge, immediately said to Bai Lang and Feng Yi: "Let ’s wait for R to launch the photo-sharing function. Yes, our main competitor is R agency, followed by [51 Personal Space], and others are classified as 'Other', but we must pay attention to the situation in North America. "
Luo Sheng is most worried about whether North America ’s truncated Xiaozha will create Facebook again. The key is that North America is now the world ’s largest single Internet market. At present, there are 140 million Internet users in Laomei. Scale, followed by domestic.
Luo Sheng obviously will not give up the overseas market. The international version of BlueSpace is inevitable, so he has a sense of time urgency, and immediately said: "Bai Lang, Feng Yi, ready to launch our label function, let's do a little bit, That is to be copied, never to be surpassed. "
"Always plagiarized, never surpassed?" Xu Yong pondered this, and couldn't help but hold on for a while, then immediately gave a thumbs up: "It is indeed the boss, wonderful!"
Feng Yi said, "Do you want to update now? Nowadays, millions of users are using BlueSpace during the day. Should you wait until midnight to push the code? Even if the code goes wrong, it will not affect many users."
Luo Luosheng shook his head firmly and said, "Fast action, break the routine, of course, now online, tag function has been developed more than a month ago, has been used internally for so long and continues to optimize so far. Do you worry about code problems?"
Boss said so, naturally the two of them who maintain the website had no opinion, and immediately pushed the code according to Luo Sheng's request.
The photo tagging function is quietly launched, and there is no doubt that the BlueSpace website is one step ahead in user experience.
Uh ...
