"How would you rate the game StarCraft?"

"I'll send out the race, and you'll score."

"Rationally discuss whether the Zerg is the weakest race among the three races in StarCraft."

"Why can't I beat my friend to death?"

The Yahoo game forum is also launched. Relying on the traffic of Yahoo, it has obtained a large number of user registrations after its launch.

In just two days, the number of registered users surpassed that of the fist game community.

No, the Yahoo Game Forum is not called a forum, it is also called a community.

In other words, these game forums that came out after the fist game community, one counts as one, and they are all called electronic communities.

It's like whoever doesn't call the electronic community is outdated.

The number of users quickly surpassed Riot Games, but Jerry Yang was not satisfied.

His goal is the fist game community, and the number of users exceeds the opponent, which cannot represent anything.

The number of paid and free signups doesn't tell much at all.

Jerry Yang himself is an experienced user of Internet forums.

The same is the game community, he himself prefers to spend his time on the fist game community rather than Yahoo games.

Not to mention other ordinary users.

The previous questions are all posts in the Riot game community. If it is the Huaguo netizens of later generations who see these posts, they will definitely react immediately:

Isn't this purely a citation post or a scoring post?
Yinzhan Post is active in all major social media, not just Post Bar.

From Weibo to Xiaohongshu, marketing accounts relying on traffic focus on leading the battle.

Gender antagonism and geographical discrimination are enduring examples of warring posts.

If it were a game forum, the case would become racial discrimination. The races here are not human races, but Zerg races, Terran races, and Protoss races.

In addition, there is occupational discrimination in RPG games, such as mages who look down on fighters, priests who look down on mages and so on.

Score post is also a rotten meme that I have been playing on the post bar for many years and never get tired of it.

The direct consequence of these classic reference posts being active in the fist game community is that it has brought a lot of discussion and attention.

Based on this, an original topic is derived.

Yang Zhiyuan himself also likes to read all kinds of posts discussing the pros and cons of race and the pros and cons of games.

Then go to Yahoo Games to have a look, and the attention is all on the game strategy.

This kind of post is also valuable, but the disadvantage is that after the user's question is answered, the other party will not want to continue to read the forum.

His attention will be diverted to the game, and I know how to pass this level, so I quickly go to the game to try it instead of continuing to read the forum.

The current understanding of the Internet is still at a very superficial stage, and there are no mature theories and complete concepts on how to build an online community.

Yang Zhiyuan has only one intuitive feeling, that is, the fist game community is more interesting than the Yahoo game community.

Users are more willing to spend time on the Riot Games community.

By the end of 98, the number of users in the fist game community had exceeded 70.

You must know that all of these 70 users are paid users who have purchased games through fist game channels.

The gold content far exceeds that of ordinary users.

"Kevin, why do you think our video game community is not as interesting as Riot Games?"

"Until this issue is resolved, we will not be able to compete head-on with the Riot Games electronic community."

Kevin, the head of Yahoo Games and a star executive inside Yahoo, replied:

"Jerry, I don't think this question is important.

Or it's not that important at this stage.

Fist has user accumulation, content accumulation, and a certain foundation.

Their content is precipitated.

What we need to do is to complete user accumulation. After a certain number of users are accumulated, enough interesting content will naturally be born.

Yahoo is the starting point for users on the Internet. We have more than 5000 million users around the world, and the number of clicks on neon lights exceeds [-] million every day.

Yahoo Mail has more than 1000 million users.

What we need to do is to accumulate the number of users in the game community to 1000 million.

By then, it's only natural that the content of Yahoo's gaming community will surpass Riot's. "

At the moment, the number of users is what everyone is most concerned about.

Few have been able to go further into the content from the user's point of view.

If everyone is not profitable, it means that everyone is profitable.

Internet companies are more of a concept. Since it is a concept, what else can better reflect the value of the enterprise than the number of users?

The view of Wall Street fooling investors is that sooner or later, users will generate income, and if the base is large enough, the greater the income created.

Yang Zhiyuan is not convinced by such a statement, because the number of users of Riot Games is 70, and the number of users of Yahoo Games is about to exceed 300 million.

But their content is still not as good as Riot Games.

Moreover, judging from the internal data analysis chart, the growth rate of the number of Yahoo game users is slowing down, while the growth rate of the number of fist game users is increasing.

He couldn't be so optimistic.

"Jerry, our investors focus on the number of users, the prospects of the story.

Our investors will not pay attention to what content is in our electronic community, and what content is in the electronic community of Riot Games.

They don't care!
They only care about the number of our users and how much they have grown this year.

What we need to do is this. "

Yang Zhiyuan thought about it, and it was indeed so.

Yahoo is a listed company, and listed companies need to be responsible to investors.

Wall Street veterans don't play video games. Their understanding of the Internet is only about how much traffic there is.

As for how traffic is realized, no one thinks about it at present, or no one thinks that the current Internet companies need to solve this problem.

It is precisely because of this that the fist game that has solved this problem is particularly optimistic.

However, Riot Games, which has gone through a round of transactions, will not accept financing in the short term, nor will it need financing.

Kevin continued: "Jerry, it's true that Yahoo Games is targeting Riot Games.

Riot Games is valued at $10 billion, and Yahoo Games has five times as many users as Riot Games, so our valuation should also be five times that of Riot Games.

That is to say, last year, relying on the new game community, the value of Yahoo has increased by 50 billion US dollars. We only need to build a similar concept.

Just pass these concepts on to investors. "

"Well, maybe you're right.

But we still need to keep an eye on Riot Games.

We can find employees to carry the above content to the Yahoo game community.

Yes, it's transport. "

"Great idea!" Kevin quickly realized the subtlety of this idea: "We can find some people to move the highly discussed posts on the Riot community to the Yahoo gaming community in real time.

We have far more users than them, and posts like this attract more discussion. "
