Chapter 45 Registrations Break Through 30,000! (3.1K)
There is a cool breeze in Room 206 on the second floor of the Entrepreneurship Park.
A dozen young people sat in a circle. Everyone was dressed casually, some in white T-shirts and shorts, some in shirts and jeans, and some even in slippers. Everyone held a popsicle in their hands.
"Brother Sen, I have an idea, called Fox Tao! It not only echoes the brand image of our website, but also allows people to know at a glance that we are an e-commerce company."
Zhuang Rui pushed his glasses and said something that suddenly occurred to him.
"Arui, this is a good idea! I agree!" Xiang Pengfei frowned and thought about it carefully for a while. He felt that Zhuang Rui's idea was indeed good.
"Song Yuncheng, what about you? As a UI designer, didn't you give a name to the brand image you designed?"
Chen Yansen wrote the three words "Fox Tao" on the whiteboard, then stared at Song Yuncheng and asked.
"I thought of two. One is Little Fox Save Money, which is friendly and cute, and directly points out the money-saving function of the product. The other is Fox Profit Network, which has a similar starting point to Zhuang Rui's idea."
Song Yuncheng was well prepared and spoke slowly and calmly.
At this time, more than a dozen alternative names had been written on the whiteboard, such as Hu Xiaohui, Hu Libao, and Hu Lishe.
"How about we decide by voting?" Zhang Wenbo suggested.
"Brother Sen, which one do you think is better?" Xiang Pengfei asked, and everyone else looked at Chen Yansen.
"How about this? Let's set up a voting activity on the website, put these options up there, and decide the result based on the number of votes. Users who participate in the voting can share the event prize money together."
Chen Yansen thought for a moment and gave an unexpected answer.
There are two advantages to doing this. First, by promoting the website through activities, you can attract the first batch of seed users at a low cost and complete the cold start of the product efficiently. Second, college students have a good sense of the Internet, and their choices are more in line with the times.
Everyone quickly realized the cleverness of Chen Yansen's approach and responded one after another.
"Wenbo, Pengfei, how long will it take to finish it?"
Jensen clapped his hands, looked at the two of them and asked.
"It's not difficult on the technical level. We can just use the ready-made template, set up data embedding points, record user IDs and voting actions, and we will definitely be able to go online before leaving get off work." Xiang Pengfei said without hesitation.
Zhang Wenbo on the side nodded in agreement.
"The prize money is tentatively set at 10,000 yuan, and it will be adjusted according to the number of participants. We will start the promotion from Xucheng College first. At least we need to let everyone understand what rebate shopping is all about."
Chen Yansen nodded slightly and announced loudly.
"OK, we'll do it right away." Zhang Wenbo clenched his fists, looking very motivated.
"Don't worry, pay the salary first!"
Chen Yansen smiled slightly and took out a black plastic bag from the chair behind him. With a "click", several thick stacks of banknotes fell out.
College students find it convenient to use, cheap and durable. If you want to pay social security for them, they will get angry with you.
The status of a fresh graduate is extremely important, and it will come in handy in job hunting, settling down, and taking civil service exams in the future.
"Brother Sen, you counted wrong. You gave me one thousand too much!" Zhang Wenbo was the first to receive his salary. He counted the money and asked subconsciously.
"You guys come to the company every night, use the internet and air conditioning, do you think I'm blind? The extra money will be counted as overtime pay."
Chen Yansen rolled his eyes at him and cursed in annoyance.
Overtime pay? Zhang Wenbo was stunned, then grinned. Five thousand a month, no one would believe it if he told others.
"Thank you, Brother Sen!"
“The boss is generous!”
“…”
After receiving their wages, everyone rushed to flatter him. Basically everyone received "overtime pay" and "bonus", and Song Yuncheng was no exception.
"I hope we can win the first battle!" Chen Yansen waved his hand and said to everyone, and he was also saying this to himself.
The words 'Humanitarian Fire +0.5', 'Humanitarian Fire +0.4', 'Humanitarian Fire +0.3' kept floating before my eyes. Soon, the Humanitarian Fire column on the panel had 4 more points.
Chen Yansen focused his mind on his physical condition. A familiar chill came over him, and in the blink of an eye, his physical condition value changed to '1.42'.
The feeling of adding points this time is not as strong as last time, but I can still feel that my body strength is slowly increasing.
When I make money, I will definitely enter the food delivery and online car-hailing industries, and arrange for the five social insurances and one housing fund, commercial insurance, and supplementary pensions. By then, millions of employees will be able to rise on the spot! Chen Yansen thought secretly, with more expectations in his heart.
The morning passed in a flash. Chen Yansen slowly stood up and stretched. He glanced at Song Yuncheng across from him, thought for a moment and said, "Now that I have received my salary and bonus, do you have to treat me to a meal?"
"Here's the meal card. You can pay for whatever you want to eat."
After hearing this, Song Yuncheng took out his meal card expressionlessly and placed it on Chen Yansen's desk.
"What if I want you to eat with me?" Chen Yansen looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he said in a low voice.
"Boss Chen, don't forget, you have a girlfriend."
Song Yuncheng gritted his teeth and warned word by word.
"Don't you have a boyfriend too? I don't mind." Chen Yansen continued to joke.
"But I mind!"
Song Yuncheng put away the meal card, turned around and left, decisively and angrily, looking like a prickly kitten.
Chen Yansen shook his head and called Zhang Wenbo, Zhuang Rui, Xiang Pengfei and others, and the group headed towards the cafeteria in a mighty manner.
Along the way, it attracted a lot of people's attention.
A month ago, Chen Yansen became famous in Xucheng College. However, as he devoted himself to website development, the popularity about him gradually faded. But there are still many people paying attention to him, and they are all betting on whether his entrepreneurial project can last until the end of the year.
"Brother Sen, the product is about to be launched. Do you want to recruit an operator who is proficient in SEO and advertising?" Zhang Wenbo asked as they walked.
He has the most experience in projects and knows what Chen Yansen needs to do most at this point. He only took the initiative to remind his boss when he saw that he hadn't taken any action.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Chen Yansen replied with a chuckle.
The Internet ecosystem in 2010 was very different from that of more than a decade later. If you had no money, you would do SEO and keyword search. The poorer ones would post and promote on QQ groups and campus networks. Only those with deep pockets would buy keyword rankings on Qiandu and Google.
Chen Yansen is well aware of the importance of traffic, but he has limited funds on hand, so in the initial stage, he can only use economical strategies.
For example, private domain operation, commonly known as QQ group advertising.
Before WeChat became the mainstream social software, QQ was undoubtedly the undisputed king, with all kinds of groups such as classmates groups, interest groups, and friendship groups. Instead of spending money on advertising on Baidu, it is better to spend money on social platforms.
In the previous life, Pinxixi, which was despised by thousands of people, took advantage of the momentum of WeChat and started its business with viral price-cutting activities.
"Let Pengfei and Wenbo put the development of the bargaining function at the top of the priority list."
Chen Yansen was secretly calculating in his mind.
After lunch, most people went back to 206 and 208 to enjoy the air conditioning. After all, there were free drinks and ice cream. Going back to the dormitory would be a torture.
At 4 pm, the voting plug-in was officially launched after passing the test.
The rules of the activity were gradually improved through communication between Chen Yansen and Zhuang Rui.
The prize pool is a floating system, with an additional 10,000 yuan added for every 3,000 new lottery users. The winners share the prize pool, which is random and ranges from 2.8 yuan to 888 yuan. The prize will be distributed to the user's balance and can be withdrawn to Zhifubao.
In order to improve user retention rate and first-order transaction rate, Chen Yansen set a withdrawal threshold of 5 yuan. In order to withdraw cash, winning users had to place an order again.
After making sure there were no bugs, Chen Yansen sent the website link to the freshman communication group: "@Everyone, students, the new product developed by Room 206 of our Entrepreneurship Park will be launched soon. This is a discount website for shopping through Taobao and getting rebates. The product name has not been decided yet. Please help vote for the most suitable one. In addition, students who participate in the vote can share a minimum of 10,000 yuan in cash, and a maximum of 888 yuan..."
The minimum bonus pool is 10,000 yuan! The maximum individual can get is 888 yuan! Driven by the interests and Chen Yansen's influence among the new students, the number of registered users in the background has been rising steadily.
Afterwards, he copied and pasted this message and sent it to the campus card agent group and high school class group.
Xiang Pengfei, Zhang Wenbo, Zhuang Rui and others also helped to forward the message.
“@陈彦森Is this the website you built? It looks like something real. Are you starting a business?”
"@陈彦森I heard that Brother Sen is the general agent of Xucheng College's campus card. He must have made a lot of money, right?"
“@陈彦森 is really rich, just voting and you’ll get 888 yuan in cash?”
"@张老师Could it be a Trojan virus? Chen Yansen's account has been hacked?"
Ding ding ding! Chen Yansen’s high school class group suddenly became lively, with former classmates discussing fiercely.
"The event is real and effective. The prize will be drawn in three days. Maybe you will win 888 yuan!"
Seeing that Chen Yansen did not reply in the group, Meng Jie stood up to testify for him.
"Brother Sen is in a meeting. What sister-in-law says is as effective as what Brother Sen says!" Wang Zihao suddenly said in the group.
“@王子豪 you idiot, you’re asking for a beating! Retract the message immediately!”
Meng Jie cursed angrily.
Sister-in-law?
Are Chen Yansen and Meng Jie together?
For a moment, old classmates from all over the world showed surprised expressions.
They thought that Chen Yansen would become a couple with Zhou Keyuan after going to college, but the ending was unexpected.
"@萌洁@陈彦森Congratulations, you can have a relationship, but you can't fall behind in your studies. The teacher wishes you all the best."
After a while, the head teacher Zhang Li replied.
Zhou Keyuan, who had been peeking at the screen, turned pale and blue. From the words she read, she could tell that Chen Yansen was doing well in college. He was the general agent for the campus card and had also started his own business.
"If I had known, I wouldn't have left him alone." Zhou Keyuan felt a little regretful, and at the same time was full of resentment towards Meng Jie: You can't take away things that I don't want.
The links sent by Chen Yansen spread to all parts of the country with the support of college students and university towns.
It was not until the number of registered users exceeded 30,000 that Chen Yansen realized that he had greatly underestimated QQ's dominance in 2010.
At this time, the amount of the bonus pool has been increased to 110,000! The first promotion activity for freshmen and e-commerce startup projects has given out hundreds of thousands of bonuses! The combination of these keywords immediately became the focus of self-media and gossip bloggers.
Even some corners of the three major portals, Sohu, Sina and NetEase, have reported on Chen Yansen and his entrepreneurial projects.
The number of registrations began to rise wildly! (End of this chapter)
