Chapter 330 China Internet Development Research Association

After the banquet, both the host and the guests had a great time, and the two of them quietly left the box.

Qin Shaoyan returned to the company with a happy face, turned on the computer, logged into QQ, opened Wang Wei's account and sent a message.

P Station: "Alliance leader, are you there? I have something important to discuss with you."

Tudou.com: "What's the matter, little brother?"

P Station: "I have a friend who works for the China Internet Development Research Association. He recently wants to do a special report on video websites to provide research reference for relevant departments."

"My friend needs some data about video websites. Tudou.com is the top two video websites and is the focus of research. Alliance leader, can you provide some data?"

Tudou.com: “China Internet Development Research Association?”

P station: "Yes, the vice presidents of this association are all Internet giants, such as Ding Sanshi, Zhang Sohu, Ma Huateng, and Jack Ma."

Tudou.com: "Is that so? Then ask your friend to contact me directly."

P Station: "Okay, I'll let him go straight to you."

Qin Shaoyan frowned. This guy didn't fall for it, so he opened the Youku account again.

P Station: "Boss Gu, I have a friend who works at the China Internet Development Research Association. He made a special report on video websites, which he used as a reference for relevant departments to conduct research."

"He needs some data from video websites. Youku.com is the top two video websites and is the focus of research. Can you provide some data?"

Youku.com: "China Internet Development Research Association? I don't think I've heard of it."

P Station: "Then I'll let him come to visit."

Qin Shaoyan threw the keyboard away in dismay. These people are not easy to deceive. What should he do?
We can't really find a China Internet Development Research Association, can we?

Qin Shaoyan picked up the phone and called Ma Huateng directly, "Brother Xiao Ma, please help me."

"I have a friend who works for a think tank affiliated with a relevant department, called the China Internet Development Research Association. He would like to invite you to serve as vice president."

"Okay, okay, thank you, Brother Xiao Ma."

Then it was Ding Sanshi's turn, and he agreed readily.

Qin Shaoyan had made great efforts in the Ice Bucket Challenge and the "Golden Keyboard Award" events. Ding Sanshi would not refuse such a small matter for any reason. This was a matter of favor.

Next was Zhang Sohu's turn. Before Qin Shaoyan could finish speaking, the other party fell silent.

"Boss Qin," Zhang Sohu suddenly said, "How is the online game you promised us?"

"What online game?" Qin Shaoyan was stunned.

Zhang Sohu said sarcastically, "Boss Qin, you are really forgetful. You promised our Vice President He that you would customize an online game for Sohu. Now that 2005 is over, where is our customized online game?"

"Oh, this is actually the case." Qin Shaoyan just remembered it and pondered for two seconds, "I did promise Mr. He to customize an online game for Sohu, but during the cooperation, there was a small problem."

"What little problem?"

"It's just that your operating philosophy is not consistent with our online game design ideas." Qin Shaoyan answered slowly, "Your operating philosophy is still focused on time-based charging, while our design is more inclined towards free games, so there is a disagreement."

"I talked to Mr. He at the time and suggested that we put this matter on hold for now because we were about to launch a free online game. I asked Mr. He to observe the market's acceptance of free online games first."

"We are setting a precedent for Sohu. We are also taking a big risk."

"Boss Zhang, what's wrong with what we did? Have we done anything wrong to Sohu?" Zhang Sohu was silent. It was indeed impossible to say that Qin Shaoyan did something wrong. However, he changed the subject and said, "Boss Qin, I heard that your Qvod.com is doing quite well. When can you come and give lectures to our Sohu Video employees and share your experience?"

"That's easy. I'll definitely go there when I have time." Qin Shaoyan laughed. "Boss Zhang, if you don't want to be the vice president, I can help you turn it down."

"No, this association is pretty good." Zhang Sohu said immediately, "I can join it."

Qin Shaoyan immediately said, "Then I'll have someone send you the certificate issued by the association tomorrow, and you also need to put a group photo on the official website."

"Ah, okay."

After dealing with these three people, Qin Shaoyan immediately called over the representative who played the role of Cash Ability Co., Ltd. last time.

This representative is a distant relative of Qin Shaoyan’s mother’s family, named Xun Ziliang, and he is the owner of a small company.

Although he is old, he is younger than Qin Shaoyan in terms of seniority.

"Hello, uncle." The middle-aged man greeted warmly as he came in.

"I've told you so many times, when you're working, you should address each other by their positions!" Qin Shaoyan waved his hand, "Also don't call me uncle, let's talk about our own things, I'll just call you brother."

"Then let's do as Mr. Qin says." Xun Ziliang sat on the chair with a smile, "What are Mr. Qin's instructions?"

"It's not really an order, I need your help with something." Qin Shaoyan took out a few certificates and said, "From today on, you are the Secretary General of the China Internet Development Research Association."

"Ah?" Xun Ziliang was stunned, "But I don't understand the Internet?"

"It's okay. There are not many people who understand the Internet industry right now. You can invite a few experts to come and put their names on the list. If you have any questions, just ask them. They will write it for you." Qin Shaoyan reminded, "If someone asks, just say you are a think tank of the relevant department. Don't say anything else."

“This association is subsidized.”

Xun Ziliang's eyes lit up, "Uncle, does this association have a staff?"

"Not yet. You are a temporary outsourced worker. If there is a vacancy in the establishment, I will help you find one." Qin Shaoyan assured, "Don't worry, we are all family members. If there is any benefit, we will definitely take care of our own people first."

Xun Ziliang became visibly excited, thinking that his uncle was really capable and could be put into the administrative agency.

The newly appointed Secretary-General of the China Internet Development Research Association left with a pile of documents. According to Qin Shaoyan's instructions, he went to Ding Sanshi and Zhang Sohu one by one to take photos and present certificates. After that, he had to go to Shenzhen to find Xiao Ma Ge.

After sending Xun Ziliang away, Qin Shaoyan called Zhang Pingyi over again.

"Master Zhang, please do me a small favor."

Zhang Pingyi frowned, "What's the matter first?"

"Build a website for me." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile.

"You can just find a programmer for this little thing, why are you looking for me?" Zhang Pingyi was very confused, "I'm busy here."

"This website is a little special, and it's not suitable for outsiders to know about it." Qin Shaoyan smiled frivolously, "Besides, making websites is your strong point, so it's something you can easily handle."

Zhang Pingyi instinctively felt something was wrong, "What website?"

"It's called the China Internet Development Research Association."

Zhang Pingyi was shocked, "Are you trying to commit fraud again?!"
