Chapter 916 917 A Powerful Opponent
Hearing Zhang Quan say that the eDonkey lawsuit in the United States has already gone to court for sharing the video works uploaded by users, and the probability of losing the lawsuit is very high, Chen Fan immediately thought of his company.

Before Chaofan Network Company, some users uploaded their favorite music and movies to their webpages to share with friends on the Internet. I was also reminded by Lin Haotian when chatting with Lin Haotian that there might be copyright infringement issues involved, so I decided to In the past year, he has purchased a large number of copyrights for various music and film and television works.

Now it seems that Lin Haotian's warning was correct.

In fact, Chen Fan also knew that this thing was infringing, because those copyright holders had also contacted the involved websites before, but most people didn't think so, because this market was originally developed by users who uploaded it by themselves and unintentionally.

After seeing the huge traffic it brought, the website was naturally unwilling to waste it. Even if the entertainment company sent a lawyer's letter, it still went its own way. After all, it was the user's personal behavior, although it deteriorated a bit in the later stage.

"You mean that man named Jed, the company he started before may be doomed now, so he chose the bitcoin market as his new entrepreneurial goal?"

Si Xu, who was floating far away, was quickly arrested, and Chen Fan returned to the news Zhang Quan had brought before, and immediately asked.

"There is a possibility that once eMule loses the resources shared by users, the website will have nothing left and can only be closed, so it seems that Jed McKaleb is likely to transfer all his energy to Bitcoin. In the market, eMule is about to be abandoned.”

Zhang Quan replied.

"The bitcoin transaction he designed is also an online transaction? The kind of continuous bidding?"

Chen Fan is still a bit unwilling to give up. Although Zhang Quan has said before that what Jade wants to do is an online trading platform, he still hopes that what he does is actually the type of over-the-counter trading.

"Judging from his speech, it should be similar to what you did."

Zhang Quan hesitated a little before speaking.

"Is he starting to develop now, or does he already have a product that will be launched soon? Is there any further news?"

Chen Fan frowned, then asked.

"This is not sure. In his speech, he only said that it will be launched soon. Maybe there are already modules. After all, this kind of trading software is still being developed by some software companies. It should be easy to buy. It only needs to target Bitcoin It is enough to modify and improve some characteristics of currency transactions.”

Zhang Quan said on the other end of the phone.

Chen Fan thinks about it and thinks it may be the case. It is much faster to buy a trading software from other software companies and modify it than to develop it from scratch. Doesn’t Chaofan Network Company also use the software that was originally intended to trade game equipment after modification? Out of the trading system?

This is what I do here, and of course others can, which is why Chaofan Network was able to come up with this trading system in less than a month. From this, it is speculated that even if the person named Jed sees The decision was made only after the news of the bitcoin market, so it may take another half a month or a month for his trading platform to go online.

"Continue to watch the news over there, and tell me immediately if there is any situation."

At this moment, Chen Fan was considering whether to let Tang Zhongwei speed up and test the trading system again. He felt that his mind was a bit confused. Chen Fan just said to Zhang Quan at the end, and hung up the phone after speaking.

Chen Fan rubbed the phone in his hand, thought for a while and put it down.

During the day, I talked to Tang Zhongwei about speeding up the test, and the other side also said that it would be arranged immediately. Now it seems that it doesn't make much sense to call it by myself. I can't stop the test and go online directly.

However, at this time, Chen Fan was more concerned about how the price of the Bitcoin market would change under the bombardment of two consecutive news.

After sitting quietly on the sofa for a while, Chen Fan finally picked up the phone again and called Zheng Xiaopang.

After the two waiting tones ended, the call was connected.

"Hey, I'm still in Shanghai. When will the platform be launched?"

Zheng Xiaopang answered the phone and asked Chen Fan.

"understood?"

Chen Fan asked back.

"Understood, I knew in the morning that some players wanted to build a bitcoin market to promote the circulation of bitcoins. Tonight, it was even more exciting. Ed McCaleb actually wanted to end up doing bitcoin transactions. He was a reseller of game equipment. Also know about Bitcoin.”

Zheng Xiaopang said on the other end of the phone.

"What reselling game equipment? The one you're talking about is called Jed?"

Chen Fan heard Zheng Xiaopang say a lot of words, he didn't understand, and asked suspiciously.

"What did you hear?"

Zheng Xiaopang was a little puzzled. He originally thought that Chen Fan called for two news today, especially tonight, but it seemed that Chen Fan didn't know.

"There is a man named Jed in the United States who wants to build an online bitcoin trading platform. This man has capital and resources, and he owns an Internet company called eMule."

Chen Fan frowned and replied.

"That's one person. Jed McCaleb should be the Jed you mentioned, one of the founders of eMule. Damn, the company couldn't keep going, so he ran into the currency circle to mess around."

Zheng Xiaopang said still a little bluffing.

"How much do you know?"

Chen Fan heard something and hurriedly asked.

"The kid just posted in the currency circle that he wanted to use the Mt.Gox trading website in his hand to do online bitcoin transactions. He said that he was testing the stability of the transaction and that it would be put into use soon. He also made various Such a guarantee, I wipe it, I want to beat someone just looking at it."

Zheng Xiaopang said loudly on the other end of the phone.

"MT Trading Network, what is this?"

Chen Fan focused his attention on the Mt.Gox trading website that Zheng Xiaopang said, and asked directly.

"A website for trading game equipment. This is similar to Li Yihong's idea. It is also directly changed by the trading software for game equipment."

Zheng Xiaopang said.

"You mean, he should put the trading system online soon?"

Chen Fan asked immediately.

"I don't know. I'm not a technical geek. By the way, when will Shencheng go online? Last time you called, you said that it was already testing, and the test results haven't come out yet? Can't wait any longer, the currency price can't be suppressed now. Yes, it has risen to 8%

Zheng Xiaopang continued to babble, while Chen Fan was a little dumbfounded.

Seeing that it was time for everything to be ready, unexpectedly, two opponents popped up all of a sudden.

For the first opponent, the so-called bitcoin market, Chen Fan didn't pay attention at all.

But the guy named Jed who jumped out now made Chen Fan feel a little tricky. This is a player with considerable experience in the Internet, so it should be difficult to deal with.

Chen Fan gave him such an evaluation in his heart.

Although he managed to make a lot of money in the Internet bubble in the United States, Chen Fan has virtually no experience in the Internet field. He doesn't think he has the ability to easily defeat this opponent, not to mention that this kid is about to lose the lawsuit because of the eMule company. It may even go bankrupt, and maybe all his attention will be transferred to the bitcoin market.

I know that because of the news, the number of people who are willing to sell bitcoins has been greatly reduced. According to Zheng Xiaopang, basically no one wants to sell bitcoins, and they all want to buy them, because after those platforms go online in the future, the transaction will be even more intense. convenient.

The current currency price is really too cheap. You can easily pay tens of meters and save tens of thousands of bitcoins. Even if you need them in the future, just sell them directly on the trading platform. At such a cheap price, no one I feel that buying now will lose money.

This is the general view in the market now that Bitcoin will rise.

Of course, there is another reason, but few people mentioned it in the forum, that is, it is becoming more and more difficult to mine bitcoins, and many people have not been able to get the right to bookkeeping for a long time.

"Don't tell me, the mining factory has only opened one set of equipment, and [-]% of the bitcoins have entered our pockets these days, cool."

After Zheng Xiaopang complained about the market, he still brought the topic back to the mining factory.

"Is it stable?"

Chen Fan asked.

"Of course, yesterday and the day before yesterday, I grabbed more than 1, at least 5+ per day. Now that the price has risen, you can say that you are happy, but you should be happy, but you are always a little bit unhappy. The time for us to lower the price is too long. It's too long, if you sweep it earlier"

While talking, Zheng Xiaopang began to complain again. In fact, he was the one who insisted on staying here for a longer time, because he wanted to get more bitcoins at a low position.

But now, of course, Zheng Xiaopang has forgotten, he only knows that they seem to be a little late in sweeping the goods, and now they can only passively increase the purchase price.

"OK OK."

Chen Fan finally interrupted Zheng Xiaopang's complaint, "You mean, the market is now at a point where there is a price but no market?"

"Yeah, most of the posts are bullish on Bitcoin, who will choose to sell at this time."

Zheng Xiaopang said immediately, not at all dissatisfied that Chen Fan interrupted him.

Chen Fan revisited the issues that he had paid attention to before and after the establishment of the Bitcoin Global Exchange. He felt that in terms of technology and trading rules settings, he could not see the advantages and disadvantages before the other party's trading platform was launched, but Chen Fan Van also noticed a difference.

The difference is that the helm of the Bitcoin Global Exchange they chose is Tang Zhongwei from Shanghai Stock Exchange, who is an insider who is familiar with the financial market.

But the only trading variety on the exchange is Bitcoin, which is a new thing, different from the trading varieties included in previous exchanges, and based on things that exist on the Internet.

That Jade is an Internet trend-setter, immersed in the Internet market, and should know how to attract Internet users through the Internet.

From what Zheng Xiaopang said and Jed’s post, we can see that his expectations for this Bitcoin exchange are actually similar to Chen Fan’s, but I don’t know if he has any plans to manipulate the price of Bitcoin. After all, he is just a The person who created the market, unlike Chen Fan, already has a certain ability to manipulate the market.

But whether it is Bitcoin Global or Mt.Gox, it is to compete for Bitcoin players at the beginning of its launch, and to attract as many people as possible to its trading system. Since he posted on the currency forum at this time, he has made various guarantees. It can be seen that he wants to be the first to win, and establish in the player's mind that Mt. Gox is the first mover in the market.

At this time, Chen Fan regretted it a bit. When he knew about the Bitcoin market, he should have insisted on letting Zheng Xiaopang reveal the news that they were going to be an online Bitcoin trading platform in the currency circle forum. Maybe the one named Jie German guys will not drill into this circle.

Now that he got the news he wanted to know from Zheng Xiaopang, Chen Fan didn't know what to say.

But since he didn't speak, it doesn't mean that Zheng Xiaopang stopped talking.

"I said, when will the Bitcoin Global Exchange be launched? Is there a fixed time, so I can start promoting it here."

Zheng Xiaopang asked Chen Fan, at this moment, Fatty also panicked a little.

He read the news of the Bitcoin market, and he didn't feel any pressure. It was a trading model that changed the soup without changing the medicine.

But at night, this guy in the Internet circle jumped out to build a bitcoin trading platform, which reminded Zheng Xiaopang that before Chen Fan asked him if he wanted to create momentum in the currency circle forum, he was against it at the time Yes, because he knew from Chen Fan that the Global Exchange still needs some time to complete the test.

He felt that it was not a good thing to reveal the news too early, but now it seemed that he had lost the initiative again.

"I talked with Tang Zhongwei in the afternoon, and he has combined the second and third phases of testing into one, and it is estimated that it will take another five days."

As soon as Chen Fan finished speaking, Zheng Xiaopang interrupted directly: "Don't let it take five days, just give him two days to get it done. Problems found in the transaction will be corrected and improved in time. After those games with multiple rounds of testing are launched, nothing will happen. It’s normal to have loopholes, and it’s fine to find them in time and deal with them in time.”

"But what we do is a financial exchange."

Chen Fan immediately retorted.

But obviously, his voice was not as loud as Zheng Xiaopang's.

"What kind of financial exchange? It's just a thing. It's something that players are joking and joking about. Don't think it's so tall. With the current size of the market, even if there is a problem, we can afford it. I think it will be launched next Monday. , In the past two days, I have started to promote and build momentum, it can't be too late.

The government positions Bitcoin as a special commodity. The reason why the word "special" is added is because this thing cannot be retrieved and can only be stored on the Internet.

If we were a serious exchange, then the system would definitely pursue stability, but no, we have the strength and time to change slowly. The only thing that cannot be delayed now is the time to go online. "

Zheng Xiaopang's voice was a bit loud, but Chen Fan understood the meaning.

Before, he considered Bitcoin as a financial tool, so he pursued the security and stability of the trading system a bit too much.

Thinking of what the guy named Jade said, his Mt.Gox will be launched soon, Chen Fan lowered his head and thought about it again, thinking that he probably thought of it because of a flash of inspiration after seeing the news of the Bitcoin market Such a project.

Judging from what he said in the post, it is estimated that it is similar to what Zheng Xiaopang thinks. He just considers bitcoin transactions as game equipment transactions. Although it is a bit of a joke, it is still a method. very small.

"Tomorrow Saturday, it seems that overseas testing companies will not participate."

Chen Fan said hesitantly.
