Chapter 1997: Where is the profit point?

The first thing to tell everyone is the concept of a foreigner.
To be precise, it is the concept of western developed countries.
They never encourage others to donate or help others for free. What they advocate is that people who help others can get enough remuneration.
This reward includes both spiritual and material.
A very simple example.
In China, if you pick up a wallet or mobile phone, can someone else say thank you, you are very happy and feel very happy?
If someone rewards something, most of the time, our honest Chinese will not want it, right?
If the value of the thing you picked up is very high, then you hope that others can show it properly, and they will usually be scolded as "drilling into the money", right?
But it is different in Europe and America.
For example, the United States and China, they have clear regulations.
If someone else finds other people ’s objects, including wallets and other items, then the owner should be rewarded and rewarded according to the value of about 10 of the found things.
If it is not given, then others have the right to sue the owner and demand more compensation.
In the end, the loser must be the owner, not only giving more, but also being ridiculed by people with knowledge.
Yin Jun feels that this regulation is very good and should be implemented in China.
Because it is the same as Confucius said his apprentice, if you do n’t ask for remuneration for doing good work alone, then you kidnapped others invisibly, so that the social moral cost of others doing good work increased, then they did not damage their reputation Directly unwilling to do good deeds.
The owner had lost something, but 100 was lost. Then someone else picked it up for you. You are equivalent to getting such a valuable thing. Should n’t you give someone a little reward?
It should be!
If the owner mischievously crooked, or simply said "you rush back to me, otherwise how do I drop", then the person who picks up something must be suffocated.
If you are grumpy, just give it to you to endure the gutter or the grass, and the worse one, such as picking up your phone, will fall directly on the ground, regardless of who you are.
Look, it was originally a matter of joy for everyone, but in the end, both people were unhappy and lost. Why is it so painful?
Skip this little topic for a while.
At this moment, people in Europe and the United States are very confused about Gu Ge.
They never believe in free lunches, especially when it comes to starting a company.
You have to say that if you set up a charity, it may be doing charity and not making money.
But if you start a company or an Internet company, you just make a search link for free, and let people get what you want through your search network. You don't make money by yourself. Isn't that a bit too incredible?
It's okay for two days a day. If you do this for a long time, if you don't make money, wouldn't Gu Ge face the risk of failure?
If Guge.com goes down, how can we find such a good free search site?
Do you say is there any other company to continue to do?
What a joke!
The richest man in the world can't stand it any longer. It takes people who have more money and no more to do this search website?
We must find a way to make money, then this search site can continue to develop, and we can use it better.
Therefore, many people have started to write letters and call the Kirin Group to ask what will happen to Gu Ge and what will be their future development plans.
Most people mean the same thing, "Brother, you must be stable. We all depend on you. How do you make money? Let me talk in advance so that we can rest assured."
Regardless of whether these companies are related to Gu Ge. Anyway, as long as it is Yin Jun's company, they all write and call, making these people in the company's delivery room cry and laugh.
Yin Jun was filming at this time, of course, he would not care about these things.
Ye Linqinwa, who received the news, also felt that this matter was not very important, so she naturally pressed it down and waited until Yin Jun finished the film.
She knows that once Yin Jun started filming, she almost ignored it and focused on the filming.
But Ye Linqinwa also began to think about it in her spare time.
Ye Linqinwa did not have too high a business talent, which was determined by her vision, knowledge and surrounding atmosphere, and had little to do with her personal talent.
If Bill Gates was not a mother of banking executives and a father of lawyers, he would not learn electronic programming, which seemed to have no future.
If Buffett's father and grandfather weren't bigwigs in the financial industry, he wouldn't be an eye-catcher from an early age, and he ended up in this stock trading business.
Ye Linqinwa was born in a country like Czechoslovakia where modern technology is extremely poor. The three generations of the family are farmers and grew up in the suburbs of the city. How much insight do you want from people like her?
Certainly not!
Even after arriving at the university, she continued to study and continued contact with foreign cultures, which was also a very basic contact, and it was impossible to jump to the point of contact with Goldman Sachs Merrill Lynch, Intel, Motorola and other giants.
Even if she followed Yin Jun, she had been desperately supplementing her various knowledge and desperately accepting all kinds of new things for such a year, and she could not grow up suddenly.
This is also the case with Gu Ge.
Ye Linqinwa knew that there was such a company under Yin Jun, and she had already seen its step plan for testing, internal testing, public testing, etc., and also went to see and understand the development model of Gu Ge.
But she didn't expect that just after launching for such a short period of time, Gu Ge.com became very popular and has become the most concerned network company. Compared with Microsoft, it is more popular and more provocative. endlessly.
Free is always the most powerful marketing tool.
Just like Yin Jun's "Kirin Daily", it's hard to start from a small place like Xiangjiang. In such fierce competition in the newspaper industry, it has played a big game. Isn't it relying on the free trick?
If it were not "Kylin Daily" free of charge, there were more than 100 newspapers in Xiangjiang, some of which made the Qilin culture, which was still weak at that time, uncomfortable, unable to open the situation for several years, and may even be directly crushed.
But once the free killer came out, all the newspapers in Xiangjiang were frightened, and all surrendered in just a few months. They watched "Kylin Daily" ascended to the throne of the first newspaper in Xiangjiang.
If the ancient song network, the same is to use this trick.
In addition to Internet and electricity costs, people can find what they want on Gu Ge without spending any money.
Or it's boring, and find some new and interesting news, short stories, celebrity anecdotes, etc. These are also very interesting.
The biggest function of the online world is to connect the whole world.
This world is not just the reality we live in. It can be connected for thousands of years before, so that the distance between space and time can be reduced to the extreme.
In this way, it becomes much more interesting immediately.
It's like when you use Weibo to brush news and douyin brush video, all the interesting and fun news will appear in front of you, and links will jump from link to link, making you reluctant to turn it off Web page.
Even if the current web page opening speed is very, very slow, it can make people wait positively and enthusiastically.
Such a thing will happen to Chinese netizens 10 years later.
At that time, everyone didn't think it was a waste of time, only that it was interesting to wait. Staying up all night to read the content of these webpages, I felt relish.
Ye Linqinwa used the computer provided by the hotel to surf the Internet on weekdays, and used Guge to search for various things.
Although many materials related to intellectual property rights are not presented, there are many web content that can be found.
For example, Ye Linqinwa checked the history of Czechoslovakia, and even went through the webpage to find the origin of the Slavic group, and then checked the migration of medieval people ... Unconsciously, these four years she went to university Knowledge, as long as she read it on the Internet, she already knew it.
Think about it ~ EbookFREE.me ~ If the channel to get knowledge is so simple, then what role should the Internet play?
As a result, Ye Linqinwa increasingly confirmed the greatness of the Internet, and also determined the importance of sites like Gu Ge.
But still that problem.
By virtue of its high popularity, there is no way to promote the continued development of Gu Ge.
The maintenance of the website, the technical updates of various engineers, as well as other server purchase costs, labor rent and other operating costs are not a small sum.
As Gu Ge becomes more precise and professional, the money will be an astronomical figure every year.
But if it is declared not free?
Announce how much you have to pay for each webpage you visit, or the more professional website content, the higher the fee?
So Gu Ge is not so powerful. In other words, almost all websites can be the same as Gu Ge. From then on, it will not be unique and irreplaceable.
This is a dilemma.
Collecting money will destroy today's good situation, if you don't collect money, you can only lose money.
For the sake of fame and continuous loss, in the long run, for a business man, it is absolutely unbearable.
Even if Yin Jun has enough money, he can sustain losses for decades or even hundreds of years, but why is that necessary?
Ye Linqinwa thought left and right, not even thinking about how Yin Jun should solve this problem.
It's just that after she thinks too much, she smiles secretly.
If you can think of these things, you can compare it with Jun Shao, how is it possible?
But Ye Linqinwa also firmly believed that Yin Jun must have thought about how to make Gu Ge profitable, otherwise he would not put this website online at all.
For this guess, Ye Linqinwa has very strong confidence!
