Chapter 45 Three Hole Cards
"Yeah!" Huang He kept doing various operations on OO, making a sound of ummy inside his mouth, and the development teams around him looked at Huang He nervously, worried that Huang He would come up with any other opinions.
The previous two opinions must be revised. If Boss Huang is anxious, he might have to modify them overnight and work overtime again, which is very uncomfortable!
However, as the saying goes, what you are afraid of comes from, after watching it for about ten minutes and waiting for a complete experience of the entire 00s, Boss Huang spoke.
"There is a problem with the avatar!" Huang He pointed to the avatar on his newcomer's account, which was exactly the same as the OO icon and said, "Do you think such a avatar can attract friends to chat with you?"
"This, we can change the avatar!" Chen Shoufu said quickly, "We have provided more than 100 different avatar pictures to replace. In addition, users can also upload the avatars themselves."
"This is the second thing I want to say. What the hell is the avatar picture you provide!" Huang He knocked on the table and said, "Anime chicken? Anime duck? There are 3D graphics, landscape paintings, and even simple color combinations. Do you think such a avatar will have a first glance?"
"But the system avatar provided by QQ is basically the same!" Chen Shoufu defended, "Didn't you ask us to copy...what is it a reference?"
"Yes, but I also said that I have to copy, copy it back, and know how to copy it!" Huang He made exaggerated actions and expressed his mood. "Tengda's avatar was done when there were only two artists. Now we have ten artists, so you can give me a picture like this?"
"Then Chairman, we are not very clear about what kind of avatar you said can attract users!" Chen Shoufu said helplessly.
"I really don't know everyone's exact preferences, but I know that for a normal person, there is a need to hope to make himself beautiful!"
"So the simplest thing is to add 100 avatars of different handsome guys, 100 avatars of different beauties, and 100 avatars of various anime characters to me. Nowadays, children like anime, and this is still attractive to them.
"Yes!" The people in the art team looked depressed, it seemed that they were going to work overtime too.
"But the chairman, the avatars of these handsome guys and beautiful women require portrait rights. If you use them casually, we will be sued."
"It's okay, I'll contact you and get 200 models for you, take a set of photos, and then sign a portrait right authorization agreement!" Huang He said.
"Where is the avatar of the anime, this should be considered copyright!" Chen Shoufu said, "But most of the copyrights of the anime are in Fusang, and we will not be able to buy the copyright for a while..."
"It's okay, use it first. After using it for half a year, the user will be stabilized, and then deleted this batch of anime avatars. At that time, I guess no one in Fusang would know about this matter!" Huang He waved his hand.
Huang He was right. Until the batch of anime avatars were deleted from the official avatar library half a year later, no one noticed the infringement of these anime avatars. If it weren't for an old employee from Jiangnan who wrote a memoir and mentioned this matter, Fusang people suddenly realized it. Unfortunately, for more than ten years, no one could do anything to do it, so they could only scold Jiangnan for being shameless.
Afterwards, Huang He pointed out more than a dozen modifications one after another, which made the entire OO team look constipated. Of course, these were all seen by Boss Huang.
Boss Huang knew that after the company grew up, he could intravene employees at will, but when he started, he had to ensure the high morale of the employees. So Boss Huang added, "Complete within three days and there are no serious bugs. Everyone will be rewarded with 2,000 yuan, cash, and they will be distributed on the spot!"
"Long live the chairman!" Everyone's faces were filled with smiles in an instant, and their morale was immediately boosted to a full extent. Boss Huang nodded with satisfaction, then patted Chen Shoufu on the shoulder, signaling Chen Shoufu to follow him.
"The ones I just found are all small problems. Do you know what our real problem is?" Boss Huang asked with a smile when walking in the third workshop, which was still half empty.
"We have no problem in technology, and the real problem is still on the user!" Chen Shoufu's face was full of disconfidence. "Chairman, we can correct all the questions you just asked, but we can't change them for new users!"
"Now, all netizens who use live chat software in China, except for a small number of them use MSN, more than 90% of them use QQ. These are all loyal users of QQ, because all their friends are on QQ, and they cannot leave QQ at all, and the user stickiness is extremely amazing!"
"As for the newcomers who used instant messaging software for the first time, they were almost all pulled over by friends to activate QQ. They are naturally QQ users, and they have no choice, because they have already activated friends users and are all on QQ, so it is difficult for us to take them away!" Chen Shoufu sighed and said, "Chairman, I am frank, let alone defeat QQ, even if we snatch a group of users from QQ, the success rate is about 1%. It is really difficult!"
"What you said is the truth, but is it too late to say it at this time?" Huang He smiled slightly. "I already knew these problems before I decided to hire you, but I still chose to fight. Do you think I would have no trump card?"
"Yes!" Chen Shoufu raised his head curiously and looked at Huang He. He didn't know what kind of trump card his boss was holding in his hand.
"The first trump card is your coral polyps QQ!" Huang He said lightly. "As far as I know, there are more than 1 million users who use your coral polyps QQ to log in to QQ now! You haven't given up on your coral polyps QQ, right?"
"No!" Chen Shoufu shook his head. He had originally thought of giving up the polyps QQ. After all, he had already started to build his own products. Who would be willing to operate such a thing? However, Huang He signaled him not to let him give up. Instead, he allocated resources to the polyps QQ to allow the polyps QQ to continue to exist.
"Do you know what kind of results will be if I don't look for you and you have been operating the polyps QQ?" Huang He asked again.
"There may be some legal risks!" Chen Shoufu said honestly.
