The source of funds for bargain-hunting Wangnan

The original protagonists of this meal were Ding Sanshi and Ma Xiaoteng.

But after two uninvited guests were added, the protagonists became Chen Li and Xu Xing.

To be honest~ This time Chen Li came to see Ding Sanshi just because he wanted to meet the future richest man.

In total, Ding Sanshi is the third future richest man he has ever seen.

Ma Xiaoyun~Ma Xiaoteng~Ding Sanshi!

Of course~ Chen Li's purpose of coming here this time is not pure. He is hoping to establish a relationship with Ding Sanshi and prepare to make a fortune when he rises in Wangnan in the future.

Don't blame Chen Li for having this idea, there is nothing he can do about it.

The system took away more than 50 million US dollars from him, leaving Chen Li with basically very little personal funds left.

It's not that Chen Li has no money, but that all his money is spent on ideal fried chicken.

Now Ideal Fried Chicken is expanding rapidly, so in the short term, Ideal Fried Chicken will not pay dividends, but will continue to invest the profits earned in the expansion of the company.

During this period of time, the only income Chen Li can get from Ideal Fried Chicken is salary and bonus!

Yes~ Chen Li is now a salaried person.

His current position is the general manager of the Ideal Fried Chicken chain, and his monthly net salary is as high as 6,000 yuan.

And it's not just salary, there are also bonuses that should be paid. He even has a year-end bonus, and it's the one with the most.

However, these two amounts of money must be a very high income for ordinary people, but for Chen Li, this amount of money is completely insufficient.

In fact, it’s not like Chen Li doesn’t have other income, such as the ideal chicken farm.

As early as when he took Su Mei and Zhou Xiaoli into shares, he separated the Ideal Chicken Farm from the Ideal Fried Chicken Restaurant.

Nowadays, Ideal Chicken Farm is regarded as the supplier of Ideal Fried Chicken, and the profits generated by the chicken farm actually belong to Chen Li personally.

It's just that after receiving Chen Li's investment of two million US dollars, Ideal Fried Chicken developed too fast, and the chicken farm couldn't keep up with the progress of the fried chicken restaurant.

And because the scale is limited, the income of chicken farms is actually limited.

Again~ This income can be said to be very good for ordinary businessmen, but for Chen Li, it seems a bit tasteless for the time being.

Speaking of which, when Chen Li was planning to open his first fried chicken restaurant last year, tens of thousands of dollars was already the limit of what he could afford.

But less than a year later, Chen Li already looked down on funds in units of tens of thousands. To make him interested, funds in units of at least millions or even tens of millions were required.

There was no way~ After being taken away by the system with more than 50 million US dollars, Chen Li already looked down on that little money.

Today, the majority of Chen Li's real income lies with Red Pony Technology Co., Ltd.

He previously changed the "350 Security Guard" redeemed from the system into "Red Pony Security Guard" and gave it to Ma Xiaoyun.

At that time, due to an Internet attack and defense war, Chen Li exchanged this security software that should not have appeared at this time on the premise that he did not want to and could not expose his computer skills.

Moreover, under the modifications of System Xiaomeng, this security software, which was not originally very powerful, became the best choice to resist hacker attacks in early 1999.

In that Internet attack and defense battle, the Red Pony Security Guard shined, and its performance was highly praised by industry professionals.

It was also for this reason that Ma Xiaoyun saw the business opportunities and found Chen Li to operate this security software.

Naturally, Chen Li would not refuse. He exchanged this security software for this purpose in addition to providing support to the red pony, which was almost unable to withstand hacker attacks at that time.

After all, this thing was obtained by exchanging real money with the credit limit of the system mall, which caused Chen Li's debt to the system to skyrocket.

Now that it has been redeemed, it is natural to apply it. If it is just for an Internet offensive and defensive war, then Chen Li's personal losses will be a bit big.

Moreover, the "Y2K Ultimate Patch" he redeemed before brought him huge profits. Although he did not keep the money in the end, it had nothing to do with the value of the "Y2K Ultimate Patch" itself.

Similarly~ the value of "Red Pony Security Guard" was also quite high in 1999. As long as Ma Xiaoyun operates it properly, I can't say that it will make more money than the Y2K patch, but it will definitely make a lot of money.

The bowl is full.

Moreover, this time, Chen Li accounted for 80% of the profits gained from Ma Xiaoyun's operation of "Red Pony Security Guard".

Ma Xiaoyun wants to use this security software to open up Red Pony Technology Co., Ltd.'s reputation in the industry, but he doesn't care that much about how much money this software can make.

Ma Xiaoyun is not stupid. He knows very well that the impact of such a security software on the Internet security industry is definitely not as simple as how much money he makes.

Compared with the direct benefits brought by this security software, Ma Xiaoyun cares more about the things behind it.

For example~user!

For example, popularity!

For example~user trust!

For example~ Industry recognition!

These things cannot be expressed directly in numbers, but they are real and very important.

For these things, not to mention that Chen Li left him 20% of the profits. Even if Chen Li took away all the profits, he was even willing to give money to help with the operation.

And even so, he still had to accept Chen Li's request.

After all, a proven and mature product is really important for a newly established Internet security company.

This helped Red Pony Technology Co., Ltd. save a lot of time and money. You must know that Ma Xiaoyun originally planned to spend one to two years developing a security software.

But now, this time has been omitted.

Moreover, this security software is different from the mainstream anti-virus software currently on the market. Anti-virus software is designed to detect and kill computer viruses, while Security Guard has the ability to detect and kill Trojans, clean plug-ins, repair vulnerabilities, perform computer physical examinations, clean garbage, and clean traces.

function.

This is definitely an excellent choice for the vast majority of novice users in China.

You know, many users in China these days don’t even know what network security is.

Not to mention network security, many people don’t know how to use computers.

But with this security guard, it will be much easier. The security guard will remind the user what the computer needs, and the user only needs to install the corresponding security software on his own.

In addition, Security Guard's original firewall relies on preemptive detection and cloud identification to comprehensively and intelligently intercept all types of Trojans and viruses, protecting user account privacy and computer security.

In short, although this security guard has deleted many functions compared to the previous 350 security guard, due to the "blessing" of the system Xiaomeng, this software has become extremely powerful in this period of 1999.

It can be said that as long as you have this security software, in 1999, you can basically avoid most of the dangers that can endanger computer security.

And the most important thing is that the team behind Chen Li also provides update services!

In fact, Chen Li will redeem the next version at the appropriate time.

Xiaomeng will upgrade the system according to the current situation of the Internet industry, and of course it is chargeable.

It's just that compared to the cost of exchange, this upgrade fee is relatively gentle, and at least Chen Li can afford it.

Therefore, both Ma Xiaoyun and Chen Li are actually very optimistic about the prospects of the official operation of "Red Pony Security Guard".

But unlike the free strategy implemented by Zhou Hongyi in his previous life, today's Red Pony Security Guard implements a paid model.

In fact, at the beginning, Chen Li also thought about whether to operate it for free, but after he made this suggestion, not to mention Ma Xiaoyun and even Zhou Hongyi looked at Chen Li as if he were a fool.

Later, when Chen Li thought about it, he found that he had actually entered a misunderstanding.

The reason why Zhou Hongyi made it free in the previous life was because the Internet security market at that time had basically been divided up by several other major companies.

Moreover, there were foreign security companies also seizing the domestic market at that time, so if Zhou Hongyi wanted to open up the situation at that time, she could only kill them.

But the situation that Red Pony Technology faces now is completely different from the situation that Zhou Hongyi faced at that time!

Although Red Pony is also a newcomer to computer Internet security, there was "The Ultimate Patch for Millennium Bug Vulnerability" before, and later "Red Pony Security Guard" shined in the Internet offensive and defensive battle.

With these two points, Red Pony can directly seize part of the market share in the field of Internet security.

In this situation, the red pony does not need to engage in any free strategies at all.

Even if we want to do it, it’s not now!

When Chen Li thought about it, he found that it was indeed the case, and there was another more important point.

That is, if it were free, Chen Li wouldn't make much money.

Unless Chen Li directly sells "Red Pony Security Guard" to Red Pony Technology, implementing a free strategy will definitely be a good thing for the company, but there will be no profit for Chen Li and the "team" behind him.

So the final plan was finalized and "Red Pony Security Guard" will be operated on a paid basis.

This also means that if this security guard is recognized by users, it will bring huge wealth to Chen Li personally.

However, this security software is not without its shortcomings!

Because the security guard is mainly aimed at protecting and killing Trojans, etc., it does not have the function of killing viruses.

Originally, Chen Li planned to exchange for another anti-virus software. After all, the security guards had come out, so the corresponding "350 Anti-Virus Software" was fiddled with and there was nothing wrong with it!

But when Chen Li proposed this point, he was opposed by Ma Xiaoyun and Zhou Hongyi.

Chen Li was a little surprised by the two people's objections. Once he got to know each other, he realized that the old boy Zhou Hongyi had gotten some inspiration from the source code of the security guard.

Recently, Zhou Hongyi is leading people to work overtime to develop corresponding anti-virus software. This guy even handed over the operation of 3721 to Ma Xiaoyun.

Upon hearing this, Chen Li didn’t feel surprised!

When a copycat encounters an original version, it’s not normal for something to happen!
