Chapter 407(1/2)
"About online payment, Simon, I am not optimistic that the Igrit online payment tool can form a sufficient scale in the short term. In my opinion, ordinary people's ability to accept new things is not as strong as we imagined, and the online content that can be consumed is not rich enough. Moreover, in order to ensure the security of online payment, the early opening and payment process of Igrit online payment tool will definitely be very cumbersome, which will limit the development of online payment."
"so what?"
"The market potential of online games should be no less than that of console games and PC games, but we must find more convenient and fast online payment channels."
In the office, Simon heard Nancy say this and asked, "You must have an idea?"
Nancy nodded and said, "Any user must pay telecommunications fees regularly as long as they access the network. Moreover, most people often pay more in order to save time and energy. If they can use their operator accounts to directly spend on the Internet, the problem just now will be solved."
"Actually, some people have made similar suggestions from Nancy and Egret. However, have you ever thought about it? It's just that in North America, the number of Internet service providers has exceeded one hand. If traditional telecom operators are included, the number will increase further. We may be able to deal with companies such as American Online and Bell Atlantic, but if we want to open up all other telecom operator accounts, we will probably invest more resources than directly promoting online payment tools."
"Operators can withdraw payment commissions, which will involve great benefits. Let's first bring in several companies to try. When other telecom operators see the profits, they will naturally gradually join this joint payment network."
"Maybe that's the case, but your idea has another serious shortcoming. Even if users usually recharge a certain amount of excess fees to the operator's account, it won't be too much, which will greatly limit the scale of online payments. Moreover, operator commissions," Simon recalled the experience of using his mobile phone account to directly deduct half of the handling fees. He couldn't help but shake his head again, saying: "If it's a small payment, it's nothing. The larger the amount, the more sensitive the user will be to the handling fees. This can easily make consumers turn to other free payment tools. Therefore, even if a carrier payment network is successfully built, it is doomed to not last long."
Nancy thought for a moment and had to agree with Simon's point of view: "Since that's the case, we can only think of other ways."
Simon's thoughts did not stop.
Nancy's judgment on online payment tools just now was not wrong.
The promotion of online payment tools is indeed not a matter of overnight success. It only takes about a year to develop the payment system. In order to ensure security and other factors in the early stage, the activation and payment process will indeed be more cumbersome. In addition, the lack of consuming content on the Internet platform will hinder users' enthusiasm for opening online payment tools.
Therefore, there may be some excessiveness in the meantime.
Some kind of guiding tool that can stimulate users to make online payments.
When thoughts came here, Simon quickly had an inspiration.
Of course, I also went to Internet cafes to play games in my previous life. When "Legend", "Zhengtu" and "World of Warcraft" were popular, tools such as Alipay were far from popular. At that time, if you wanted to spend money on the game, you could only buy a point card.
Click the card!
Simon couldn't help but snap his fingers.
Prepaid phone cards have become very popular in this era, and online consumption point cards are easily accepted by users.
Igrit can fully issue an online payment point card tool, where users purchase point cards through current retail channels for online consumption, and it does not need to be limited to online game consumption, but can also be used to purchase software or pay online fees, etc.
At the same time, payment point cards can also be used as a "spark" to cultivate users' online consumption habits.
As long as users are accustomed to online payments, Igrit's Ypay tool can naturally turn temporary point card users to official users who bind credit cards.
After sorting out his thoughts again, Simon explained his thoughts to Nancy, while opening the email address and quickly knocked down his thoughts and sent them directly to the senior executives of Egret.
Today is the day of the Oscars.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Simon still got off work on time, but did not rush to the Holy Citizens Auditorium, where the award ceremony was held, but went to the own villa of Trausdale Manor in Beverly Hills.
Sofia Fessi lived here with her children two days ago to facilitate the arrangement of the Gucci brand party to be held at the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills nearby.
The little guys rushed back to the East Coast yesterday, and the woman still lives here.
Villa bedroom.
After a refreshing joy, it was already dark outdoors.
The sound of the award ceremony being underway was heard from the TV in the bedroom.
On the big bed, the two of them were covered with thin quilts, but the woman under the thin quilt was covered by the man, revealing only two fair jade arms and a beautiful face that still looked extremely rosy even in the dim light.
The man's body was very heavy, but Sophia had no intention of letting him leave.
I even enjoyed the heavy feeling that makes people breathe hard.
His chin was stumbled on his arm, and he looked casually at the TV "Dance with Wolves" winning another award, casually telling him about all kinds of recent events.
Daniel is actually smarter than Gemma, and learns Spanish very quickly.
Simon's mansion in Paris was almost broken into, but the thief was frightened by the alarm.
Gucci bought the abandoned factory where the catwalk was held in the outskirts of Milan, and planned to rebuild it as a brand display center after it was rebuilt.
My father accidentally caught a large sea fish. The whole family ate it for a whole week and probably won’t want to eat seafood again for the next year.
...
The woman said in slightestly, and Simon also listened patiently and occasionally echoed a few words.
On the TV.
Before I knew it, I had already arrived at the Best Actress Award.
Susan Sarandon, who replaced Cathy Bates in "Ten Days of Danger", successfully defeated several opponents such as Meryl Streep and became the Oscar winner this year. This is another achievement of the film produced by Daenerys Entertainment.
The woman under her waited for Susan Sarandon to finish the award speech and said, "Simon, I heard you have established a vase fund?"
"Yes, you want it too?"
"I don't need it, but the girls in Europe who help you manage your property should also enjoy this kind of benefit, right?"
Simon didn't go to Europe after his honeymoon trip last year. He thought for a while and said, "You should first organize a piece of information to the Vase Fund team of Cersei Capital."
Sophia thought about it, but shook her head: "In Europe, what I chose for you is just real maids, they don't have the potential to start a business."
"Then let's change a group of people," Simon said with a smile. "Pick from the top universities in Europe, pay according to the standards in North America, and the share of the Vase Fund. I think I can definitely pick out the best ones."
"What are you doing this for?"
"Actually, it's an investment. I won't do business at a loss. However, by the way, I can cultivate a large number of top vases with a net worth of billions."
"Well, I feel you're so evil."
Simon smiled, watching the TV show that the best director nomination has begun, and he lowered his head and kissed the woman's face, saying, "Do you want to take a shower?"
Sofia knew what Simon meant, shook her head and said, "No hurry. All the work should be done. Angela stared at the Hilton Hotel. We just need to show our faces there a little before the party is over."
Simon actually didn't have much intention of attending the party, so he nodded.
Sofia soon remembered another thing: "You asked me to look for a team of detectives in Europe. I found several investigation and consulting companies and could poach some people. But what should I do next?"
"Each team is controlled within 10 people and set up a separate detective firm. The salary of these people is paid by Westeros' overseas accounts. On the surface, they are still operated according to traditional detective firms. They can accept investigations on their own on weekdays. Once they receive orders, our work is the highest priority."
"What are you going to let them do?"
"For example, investigate whether you are looking for other men behind my back."
“…”
"Are you guilty?"
Sofia gave the man a blank look, but couldn't help asking, "If, if I did, what would you do?"
“Not doing much.”
"Um?"
"As long as you don't murder me with a man, it's nothing, I just pretend that I have lost a vase."
“…”
"Why, do you think I tie you and that man into a sack and throw it in the high seas?"
"Um."
At least I don't care so much about myself.
Simon stroked his fingers across one of the woman's arms and said, "I only care about those who care about me, and of course I don't care about those who don't care about me."
Sophia turned her cheek and rubbed it against the back of the man's hand, and murmured softly: "Simon, I care about you very much."
"Oh, let me show it?"
“…”
"Look, the lying has been exposed?"
"Westero, you're a bastard."
"I really care a little when I hear this tone."
"asshole."
"Continue, grit your teeth and get some more...ah, don't really bite."
He gently bit the man's arm and pretended to start a cold war.
On the TV screen, the 61st Academy Awards Ceremony officially ended.
I still couldn't help but speak out: "Actually, if you want to build a private intelligence network, there are quite a lot of opportunities in the past two years."
"Um?"
Simon asked a question.
A few days ago, when discussing the security of online payment tools with the butler Alice Ferguson, Simon had the idea of organizing some private investigation teams to deal with security issues such as possible attacks and theft on online payment tools.
The plan has begun to be implemented soon.
In North America, Janet personally took over this job that women think is interesting.
In Europe, although Igret has not yet expanded, Simon also asked Sophia to start looking for a team in advance.
As long as the time is right, this team will develop to several other states in the future.
