It has to be said that Penguin's hierarchical system is indeed one of the best solutions to save QQ in the early days, because this hierarchical system completely hits the vanity of users.For users with stars, who would like to have the most stars among their friends?After someone is out of the moon, they start to compare the moon; finally, they compare the sun and the crown... Today, the rewards attached to the qq hierarchy system are actually meaningless, but there are still countless users who want to improve their qq To buy super members, annual memberships, super qq, to ​​use Penguin's software that is not excellent.

After all, Mr. Ma is engaged in Internet operations. When Liu Miao clarified the hierarchical system and the rewards that can be attached to the hierarchical system, Mr. Ma immediately understood that this is a big killer to increase user stickiness.In particular, the ability for high-level users to customize their avatars and increase the limit of friends is a catalyst to stimulate users to hang up on QQ. If you can do it yourself, can others not?

As if seeing Mr. Ma's idea, Liu Miao took out several patent documents.Of course, the hierarchy and custom avatars cannot be patented, but the idea of ​​a hierarchy and related rewards (including functions such as custom avatars) on instant messaging software is enough to apply for a patent.This means that if instant messaging software such as MSN, Yahoo Messenger, and ICQ want to use this hierarchical system, they must obediently pay the patent fee to Penguin to obtain the authorization to use it, or they must find ways to bypass the patent wall.

But the problem is that Liu Miao's patent system was written by the best patent lawyers, which means that there are hardly many ways to get around it.So if anyone dares to use this solution behind Penguin's back, waiting for it must be Penguin's endless patent litigation.And Penguin doesn't care how much compensation they can get in the end, they just need to use patent litigation to let the court freeze the other party's software use is enough.Internet competition is like this, one step earlier often means the final victory.

After seeing the future of QQ through the hierarchical system, Mr. Ma still expressed his biggest worry, "If we don't have any profit point, then we will not be able to support it for too long in the end. Listing is a dream for us."

"Are you afraid that there will be no profit point if you have users?" Liu Miao responded with a smile.

In fact, the early Internet companies often focused on the so-called pv, which is the number of page views.As for whether there are users, they don't care at all; on the contrary, various software and game companies care about the number of users.But in the later stage, who dares to say that he doesn't care about the number of users?Why did the Chinese Internet later form the three bat giants? Isn't it because these three giants have almost monopolized all Internet users?Why is the big penguin empire able to run amok in the end? Isn't it supported by the base of [-] million users?

But at this time, it doesn't make much sense to talk to Mr. Ma about the user's future. He gave Mr. Ma the plans for QQ membership and QQ Red Diamond.Compared with Mr. Ma's one-size-fits-all fee plan, Liu Miao's QQ membership plan is actually more free.If you are not willing to become a member, you can still use the basic functions of qq; but if you are willing to become a member, then you can get custom avatars, user name red names and top ranking measures without level restrictions, the most important What's more, members can set up two groups for free.

This group is also a function that Mr. Ma thinks is very interesting. High-level QQ users can create one group, but members can get two groups without level restrictions.With these additional value-added functions, Mr. Ma has seen the prospect of user payment.After putting down the plan book for the membership function, Mr. Ma opened the plan book for the red diamond function.

Compared with the membership function, Mr. Ma has to admit that Red Diamond will be the biggest source of acquiring a large number of paying users. The QQ show function is already amazing, but the function of red diamond members enjoying discounts, free wear, and early wear is the fundamental reason to stimulate users to pay.Mr. Ma is now very sure why Liu Miao dared to ask for more than [-]% of the shares, because if he were to go to another company, it would only be a matter of time before he would defeat oicq, icq and other software.

"I should say that I am very glad that Mr. Liu Miao finally chose our Penguin company instead of any other company." Mr. Ma closed the proposal. "We will step up the development of new functions. If there are no accidents, we will release the first version at the beginning of the new semester. Then what functions will we open up next? I would like to ask Mr. Liu Miao to enlighten me."

"Look at this plan." Like a robot cat, Liu Miao took out another plan from his schoolbag.

This is a plan book for QQ game platform and Blue Diamond users. Mr. Ma and Zhang Zhidong glanced at each other, and opened the plan book with wry smiles.After reading a few pages, the eyes of the two were amazed.Because this qq game platform is completely running for the Zhonglian game platform. Compared with the Zhonglian game platform, which only has traditional chess and go games, the qq game platform even introduces modern chess and card games such as mahjong and poker, especially mahjong. There are three types of Mahjong in Sichuan Province, Mahjong in Guangdong Province and Baodao Mahjong. Poker also has familiar or unfamiliar games such as bridge, 50k, running fast, and fighting the landlord.In addition, there are games that I have never heard of such as Bubble Bobble, Find Differences, Lianliankan, and Zuma.

But when he turned to the appendix on the development of new games at the back of the planning book, Mr. Ma was completely stunned by Liu Miao's amazing imagination.If someone is born knowing it, Mr. Ma believes that this word is used to describe Liu Miao.No wonder Liu Miao said that this will be the main function of qq2000. It will indeed require more than half a year of development, and many games in it are estimated to require more than a year of development.

Compared with the Zhonglian game platform, the qq game platform has a level system and a ladder system, which ensures that when users play more advanced matchmaking functions, they will encounter users of comparable strength.After all, playing this kind of puzzle game is fun only for equally matched users.Moreover, in addition to the normal game levels, the qq game platform also introduces five levels: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, and King. , then it will be downgraded directly.

The blue diamond is another vanity function, mainly because it has special effects when entering the game room.There is also the function of kicking and anti-kicking. The qq game platform allows the game host to expel a certain game user, but it must be supported by half of the other players in the room. However, blue diamond users can kick out non-blue diamond users without voting. or non-host players.

"Although the kicking function is a bit overbearing, if it is used in the matching mode, wouldn't it destroy the balance of the game?" Zhang Zhidong expressed his concern.Getting kicked in the entertainment game won't lose anything except being unhappy, but getting kicked in the matching game mode will destroy the upgrade route of others, which is simply a deep hatred.

"The function of kicking people will be prohibited in the match mode." Liu Miao explained, "And the rooms of the match match are randomly assigned. After one match, the next match will be randomly matched. It is very difficult for everyone to meet again."

After chatting with Mr. Ma and Zhang Zhidong, the rest is about the contract.Because neither party had any opinions, a basic contract was signed.Of course, with the establishment of other affiliated companies in the future, Liu Miao will have to sign other agreements, but the current work proposal has been completed.After talking with the Penguin people, Liu Miao, Dad Liu and others were ready to meet Baoqing.It's not that Pengcheng is not fun, but that Baoqing Commercial Group has something to wait for Liu's father to deal with, so Liu's father had to rush back.

When I got off the expressway, it was already around eleven o'clock in the evening, but now it was at least three hours' drive away from Baoqing.The rest of the journey is on the provincial road. Because this provincial road undertakes too many transportation functions, the road conditions are not particularly good.Especially between Baoqing City and Shuangxing City, there is a road around the mountain. In fact, Liu's father usually does not want to take this road at night.But Uncle Zhang was in a hurry, so Dad Liu had to make an exception and drive home at night.Because it took too much effort to talk to the Penguin people, Liu Miao had already fallen asleep on Liu Yan's lap.Liu Yan was not much better, children at this age are still very sleepy, so Liu Yan also fell asleep on Liu Miao's back.

Just when Liu Miao was in a daze, a sudden sound of brakes woke Liu Miao up, and then saw several bright lights shooting over, and then felt the inside of the car turned upside down.Fortunately, both of them were wearing seat belts on the back seat, but even so, the violent shaking caused Liu Miao to crash into the cold compartment several times, and finally passed out.The moment he fainted, Liu Miao was sure of one thing, that was that his group had encountered a car accident.Is it possible to cross again?Liu Miao's eyes darkened.

Although it was already midnight, Mother Liu still didn't sleep, and she felt a little uneasy.Because according to the usual time, Father Liu should be home at this time, but until now, he has not seen Father Liu and others.At two o'clock in the morning, the phone rang and woke up Liu's mother who was waiting for her husband and children to come home in the living room.Mama Liu answered the phone, but the news on the phone made Mama Liu faint.Perhaps it was because of the commotion that Grandpa Liu also came out to see what was going on.Seeing his daughter-in-law fainted, Grandpa Liu, who was in a bad mood, took the call.

Grandpa Liu hurriedly shouted: "Old woman, come out quickly! Shu Ping has passed out, you should come out quickly!"

When Grandma Liu came out, she looked at the distraught Grandpa Liu and Mother Liu who had fainted on the ground, and hurriedly asked, "What happened!"

"You write to help Shuping to the sofa!" Grandpa Liu called Uncle Liu at this time, "Jianjian! I am your father, and your brother had a car accident in Zhaoyang County! Yes, you should drive here quickly! "

"What are you talking about?" Grandma Liu was also anxious at this time, "What happened to the National Day? And what happened to Miaomiao and Yanyan?"

"When I came back from the National Day, I encountered a car accident and the car overturned down the mountain." Seeing that Grandma Liu's expression was not good, Grandpa Liu hurriedly said, "Sit down first, if you fall down, no one will take care of you." ——National Day is okay , just broke a few bones, nothing life-threatening. Miaomiao and Yanyan passed out directly, and they haven't woken up yet, the doctor is already in critical condition."

"Critical illness? Old man, don't scare me! How old are they?" Grandma Liu burst into tears.

"I've asked Jianshe to find a car. Don't worry. I'll see when I rush over." Grandpa Liu sighed.
