Chapter 804 King

Upon hearing this, Feng Yiping sat next to him with a lot of things, "What do I have to envy?"

Is this guy envious of my many children?

Huang Jingping and Amanda, he and Page knew about it early in the morning. They also knew about it when he and Zhang Yan got married naturally in 2009. The fastest update ┏┛

The fourth child of my family was born last year, and they all gave gifts...

Maybe they can even guess whose child is in Jin Ling's belly?

Hehe, this is really embarrassing.

"Are Facebook users almost exceeding 1.1 billion?" said Bryn.

Oh, it turns out to be this one.

"Not that fast guy," Feng Yiping smiled.

After years of hard work on Feng Yiping's efforts... After that, on February 13 this year, on the eve of Valentine's Day, Facebook's registered users finally officially exceeded the 1 billion mark!

"You know, it will be much more difficult to develop the next 1 billion users than it is now,"

Bolling shook her head, "Not necessarily, just Facebook's products, such as whatsapp, have the potential to have 1 billion users, right?"

Of course, whatsapp users have now exceeded 500 million and are also growing rapidly.

It turns out that he has never used Facebook, and Feng Yiping also knows that whatsapp is the most expensive merger and acquisition of Facebook, so how could he spend this money in vain?

Therefore, the product that Zuckerberg and others launched before Christmas in 2008 was whatsapp.

"Their users have duplicates, man," Feng Yiping explained.

"No," Bolling shook his head, "There will be some repetitions, but this is not the case in user habits. We all know that Facebook emphasizes the concept of Moments, and whatsapp focuses on instant messaging,"

"Hey, you've analyzed it correctly," Feng Yiping patted his shoulder, looking very relieved.

"And there is another product you launched in 2008, instagram. Many commentators were not very optimistic at the beginning, but the number of monthly active users exceeded 300 million at the end of last year, which also has huge potential, isn't it?"

Feng Yiping continued to hehe, "This, you know, at that time, I just thought that the visual network would develop rapidly, so online photos would increase significantly,"

Page looked at him and continued, "not to mention, the product you launched in the third quarter of last year, snapchat, once again led the trend of development," he said.

"That's it," Feng Yiping said seriously, "that's because after analyzing the rate of user growth, their usage habits, and listening to many users' opinions, we feel that a considerable number of people are no longer very happy to share their dynamics on Facebook in an all-round way, as we did at the beginning."

"After all, there will be bad aspects in anyone's life, and no one is willing to share these," he paused, "of course it's also because of privacy," he said.

"So we thought we had to make changes at the time. Unexpectedly, the response to the launch of this new product was really good,"

"What we didn't expect was that more and more users were sending trade secrets through snapchat,"

In short, the research and development of these products is a response that must be made. The success of these products is best expected... I am not very, very far-sighted.

But Brynn didn't seem to be moved. After all, they are one of the people who know Feng Yiping the most. "Others include the live broadcast you launched..."

"The launch of such celebrity products is dazzling, making your followers unable to keep up with your pace, and Murdoch is always dull,"

"That," Feng Yiping smiled, "it should be expected. From the beginning, we knew that it would be difficult for outsiders like News Corporation to run such projects,"

Brynn smiled, "Yes, that's what made Silicon Valley people happy again,"

Because of the temporary success of myspace, some people from News Corporation have made some so-called Silicon Valley, but such remarks.

But unexpectedly, the slap came too quickly. It was once worth more than $10 billion, which allowed Murdoch to issue myspace, which would generate $1 billion in revenue for at least one year. After 2008, the situation took a sharp turn.

By the end of last year, Murdoch quietly dumped this piece of assets that he had always been talking about for a price of just $30 million.

The industry estimates that his losses on the myspace project should total nearly $1.5 billion.

"Haha," Feng Yiping laughed again, "I don't believe it, you still care about this,"

As a representative of American high-tech companies, how could Google take such a disruptor as News Corp seriously?

"But compared to Facebook being so full of vitality, Google is now regarded by many users as an old company like ibm and Microsoft," said Bryn.

Feng Yiping immediately said, "How could Google, whose revenue has been growing rapidly, be an old company?"

The point of Bollinger isn't on this, "I mean, man, you haven't had any good ideas about Google lately?"

Feng Yiping had no choice but to touch his forehead, "We had a discussion about the future of search. The future should be that everything can be searched. Search is everything, but to achieve such a goal, man, we have to wait for the relevant conditions to be mature,"

"Aren't we hurry up and carry out related technology research and development now?"

He knew that this was at least Brynn personally, who had felt pressure on the booming Facebook.

Although Feng Yiping, Page, and Brin already had a tacit understanding of future development, Brin still felt the pressure at this time.

It's not surprising to say that.

In the second quarter of last year, according to data from the US Internet traffic monitoring agency Hitwise, Facebook's visits accounted for 07% of the total number of websites in the United States, ranking first in the United States. Google, which has always been leading the way, ranked second with a visit rate of 01%.

If youtube, which ranks fifth and accounts for 21%, and nextdoor, which covers most American families, Feng Yiping's company can be said to be far ahead of Google - this is exactly what Feng Yiping said to Sandberg that in the mobile Internet era, the traffic of social software should be higher than that of search engines.

"What is Google's old company? Last year's revenue was close to $30 billion. This year, based on the situation in the first quarter, I think $40 billion is not a problem, right?" Feng Yiping hugged Brin's shoulder, "Man, Microsoft is jealous!"

"The key is that no matter whether it is Microsoft or other companies, no matter how jealous they are, they can only be jealous because they have no way to get a piece of the pie."

"Of course, we have to say Yahoo, right?" Feng Yiping knew that they had a knot about Yahoo. "Mr. Sun was so aggressive at the time, but now they have no progress in the development of new fields such as social networking and e-commerce. Instead, they have retreated in the fields of search and online advertising with a certain foundation."

"I think that in a few years, if Google is interested, just pull a hair from its thigh and you can buy it,"

Brin was indeed happy, "Do you think we should acquire it?"

"If the price is right, why not?" Feng Yiping said, "Just treat you spend some money to realize your dream,"

"We can't be as rich and willful as you," said Bryn. "And, what's more difficult to develop a second 1 billion user base. Is this difficult for you?"

"It's quite difficult," Feng Yiping said seriously.

"Did you forget that you are still the largest shareholder of China's largest social software?"

"Oh, this, you see, aren't those two companies?" Feng Yiping argued, "and, it has been limited to the Chinese market at present,"

With his supervision and heavy investment, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley spent a lot of effort and finally failed his expectations. In the second quarter of 2009, they finally won the South African mih he had coveted for a long time.

As a result, he also became the major shareholder of Penguin.

But according to the original agreement, he did not interfere with the daily operations of penguins - because he felt that the development of penguins did not require any interference from his own.

"We can't get in foreign social software, right?" Bryn was really envious.

Foreign, Facebook, Twitter, and other series of products have swept the world. In China, it is also the major shareholder of the largest social software company, so it can be said that he is the king of social networks in the world.

"Dear, no matter what, you don't have to worry," said Feng Yiping. "In the field of online advertising, search has a natural advantage over social networking sites."

"You see, Facebook's search results are all derived from its users. Compared with Google's massive search results, the quality is far different. Therefore, our advertising click-through rate will inevitably be lower than Google,"

"Advertisers, therefore, will definitely favor Google,"

"Let's relax, Google will always be the king!"

But he also knew that there were some things that were time to do.
