Seeing Mr. Ma questioning himself, Xu Yiyang smiled slightly and said, "It's not really a high opinion, it's just a little bit of my own superficial opinion."

Ma Huateng hurriedly said, "President Xu, please tell me."

Xu Yiyang smiled modestly, "I'm an amateur player, so if I say something unprofessional, please don't mind Mr. Ma and Mr. Zhang."

"Where is that!" The two waved their hands in a hurry, looking serious.

Xu Yiyang said humbly, "Actually, I personally think that it is okay to imitate the product form, just like you produced the world's first pair of jeans, I can also follow suit, as long as I don't completely copy your style, there is no There's nothing wrong with stealing your brand."

Speaking of this, Xu Yiyang changed the subject, and said again, "But, if I even imitate your brand name, then something will really go wrong."

Ma Huateng said with some embarrassment, "What Mr. Xu said is that I also considered this issue. I also wanted to make a coincidence at that time, so I named it oicq."

Xu Yiyang nodded, and said, "Mr. Ma, let me tell you the truth, I personally feel that you are a bit lost in the authority about imitating the name of ICQ."

Ma Huateng hurriedly asked, "How?"

Xu Yiyang said, "Look, the name icq, in our country, only a very small number of people who have a relatively in-depth understanding of the Internet know what it is and what it means, but now you just grab someone from the street or from an Internet cafe , Most of them don’t know what icq is, so if you call icq, not only can you not borrow money, but you will also plant mines for yourself.”

Both Ma Huateng and Zhang Zhidong nodded slightly at the same time, with serious expressions on their faces.

Afterwards, Xu Yiyang said again, "And to be honest, the name oicq is first unpleasant to hear, second hard to remember, third hard to say, and it's really hard to pronounce."

After finishing speaking, he smiled and said, "Look, when the two met, A asked B, do you know oicq? Do you have an oicq number? What is your oicq number? Does it sound awkward?"

Ma Huateng thought about it seriously, and said, "What Mr. Xu said is indeed reasonable. The name is indeed longer and more difficult to pronounce..."

As he said that, Ma Huateng asked, "Mr. Xu, do you have any good suggestions?"

Xu Yiyang smiled slightly, "My suggestion is very simple."

talking,

He stretched out two fingers "it's called qq"

"qq?" Ma Huateng asked back, "what does qq mean?"

Xu Yiyang asked back, "Does it need meaning?"

Ma Huateng asked subconsciously, "Don't you need it?"

Xu Yiyang nodded, "No need."

After speaking, he said again, "What do you care what it means? You just need to know that the name is easy to remember and easy to say!"

"As soon as users talk about your product, they will ask if you have played QQ? What is your QQ number? Compared with whether you have played OICQ, what is your OICQ number, is it more fluent?"

"Besides, we Chinese people say that the word duplication itself is intimate. Many parents give their children nicknames and nicknames between couples are all duplication of characters. QQ just happens to be the same."

As he said that, Xu Yiyang asked again, "As for the meaning, do you think that domestic users will pay attention to the meaning of video act disc?"

Ma Huateng realized in an instant, and immediately replied, "No, I believe domestic 99 users don't know what video act disc means."

Xu Yiyang said, "Yes, because English is not our mother tongue, why do we need to know what vcd means? We only need to know that vcd is a disc player. As for why vcd is not kcd or fcd, they don't need to know at all , and there is no need to know."

Ma Huateng said pleasantly, "Mr. Xu, you really enlightened me!"

In Ma Huateng's eyes, Xu Yiyang was almost a genius.

A genius who had the courage to spend 4.8 million to invest in a start-up company at the age of eighteen.

An eighteen-year-old can see through the essence of many Internet things, and even meet future geniuses.

If oicq continues to use this name, it is likely to be discovered by icq and sued for infringement in the next year or two or even shorter.

Therefore, it is an extremely wise decision to change the name in advance now.

Moreover, Xu Yiyang awakened the dreamer with one sentence.

Ma Huateng himself is an entrepreneur with a technical background, so he has a deeper pursuit of Internet things.

He knew that icq's name took the homonym i seek you, which means "I seek you".

So he named his product oicq. Among them, the meaning of icq is the same as that of its creator, icq, and the meaning of o is oeng, which can be understood as an open platform.

However, Xu Yiyang's analogy about VCD made him understand a truth.

Huaxia users who speak Chinese as their native language will not care what your oicq means. In the future, they will only know that oicq is a chat software, and they will also think that this name is annoying, hard to remember and difficult to pronounce, I don't understand who has a brain twitch and came up with such a name.

Instead of this, why do I need to stick to oicq? After all, your own users don't even bother to figure out what oicq means.

And qq is really nice and easy to remember!

Xu Yiyang picked up the teacup at this time, poured a small puddle of water on the surface of the round glass coffee table, then dipped his finger in the water, and wrote two huge letters of qq on the glass surface.

When writing, he deliberately made these two letters more cartoonish.

Afterwards, Xu Yiyang looked at Ma Huateng and Zhang Zhidong, pointed to these two letters, and asked with a smile, "Look, these two letters are written like this, don't they look like two cute big eyes?"

The eyes of the two immediately projected over, and upon seeing this, their eyes immediately shone with excitement!

What Xu Yiyang said was right, these two letters were written by him in this way, and they really looked like two cute big eyes.

It immediately gave people a feeling of finishing touches.

In contrast, the four letters oicq, no matter how they are written, seem very mediocre.

The two of them were really impressed by the QQ written by Xu Yiyang.

Ma Huateng even thinks that if based on this idea, if you design lo or visual materials, users will definitely feel very charming!

Almost at this moment, Ma Huateng made the decision to change the name of oicq to qq.

But just to be on the safe side, he turned his head, looked at Zhang Zhidong, and asked excitedly, "Zhidong, what do you think?"

Zhang Zhidong was also very excited, and blurted out, "I think it's very good! If we change the name to qq, then our promotion will also save a lot of worry."

As he said that, he said, "Promoting this kind of thing is to compare who can make the other party remember it at once. From this point alone, QQ is countless times stronger than OICQ!"

Ma Huateng nodded in agreement, then looked at Xu Yiyang, and said excitedly, "Mr. Xu! Your suggestion is really precious! If you hadn't reminded me, I might never have discovered this problem until I received the icq The lawyer's letter..."

Xu Yiyang smiled slightly, agreeing in his heart.

In fact, Mr. Ma really didn't think of this in his previous life. He just wanted to catch the popularity of ICQ, but he didn't get it right.

Later, icq sued oicq, and Mr. Ma had no choice but to change his name to qq.

But I didn't expect it to be self-defeating.

After Fujixun changed the name of oicq to qq, it has made rapid progress and developed rapidly, and has established its own giant foundation in a short period of time.

And Xu Yiyang used his own mouth in advance to tell Mr. Ma's own future in advance, and he just told him in advance.

But this can help Fujixun avoid some detours, and it can also avoid the risk of legal proceedings.

But Ma Huateng didn't know that the wonderful idea that Xu Yiyang told him turned out to be a flash of light that he produced under the stressful state in the future.

At this time, deep in his heart, his gratitude to Xu Yiyang had sublimated to a new height.

He felt more and more that he was really a lucky one, as if he had been walking for a long time, and then God suddenly favored him and sent him such an amazing investor.

So, after thanking Xu Yiyang repeatedly, he blurted out, "I'll have a meeting with everyone to explain when I go back, oicq will officially change its name to qq in the next version!"

Xu Yiyang nodded and said, "It's best to find a talented artist, find a way to make the two letters qq into a more detailed cartoon, and it's best to reflect it on the company's logo and company virtual image."

Ma Huateng was instructed and said, "Okay Mr. Xu, don't worry, I have written it all down!"

Unexpectedly, Xu Yiyang kindly reminded Mr. Ma to avoid legal risks, but Mr. Ma was full of gratitude to him.

A good investment relationship is a good start. If it continues, the cooperation between everyone will be easier and more enjoyable, and it may even become a good story in the industry.

...

The drafting of the contract is a technical activity.

Both parties must ensure that the contract not only reflects all the details negotiated by everyone, but also avoids all possible loopholes.

This is like a technician developing a piece of software, not only to develop the functions of the software, but also to find potential bugs in the software, and then fix them all, so that the software is as impeccable as possible.

The three lawyers sat together for a whole morning, and the text of the contract was only 70% completed, so Xu Yiyang said straightforwardly, "Let's go, let's go downstairs for dinner first, and then continue to sort out after dinner."

In the luxury box of the Hilton Hotel, Xu Yiyang ordered a table of high-end meals.

Six people ate more than 10,000 yuan for a meal, equivalent to more than a year's wages of ordinary workers in Guangzhou.

Not to mention a hard-working entrepreneur like Ma Huateng, even a lawyer like Fang Junhui who often assigns clients was shocked by the luxury of Xu Yiyang's meal.

Xu Yiyang did not care about it, he hoped to create an impression that he was not short of money and generous to the Fujixun team, so as to give them more confidence.

Since they want to be the sponsors of Fujixun, they have to give them the illusion that the sponsor's father is rich.

After lunch, the six returned to the room, and the lawyers continued to work on drafting the contract.

After several rounds of exchanges and revisions, as well as the confirmation of Xu Yiyang and Ma Huateng, after the contract was finally finalized, it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon.

Later, Xu Yiyang signed an investment agreement with Ma Huateng on his personal investment in Fujixun Company in his personal capacity.

After Xu Yiyang signed his name and pressed his fingerprint on the contract, Ma Huateng also stamped the official seal of Fujixun on the contract.

Now, as long as Xu Yiyang puts 4.8 million into Fujixun's company account, this contract will come into effect officially!

Xu Yiyang was excited and excited, but he was always strong and calm, but Ma Huateng couldn't hide his inner excitement. He stretched out his hand to Xu Yiyang and said seriously, "Mr. Xu, thank you for your support and trust! I wish us a happy cooperation!"
