"Although the controlling stake in the express navigation network is in my hands, but in this matter, I still listen to you, what do you think?" Long Yu said.

"From the current point of view, your team needs more funds to support the development of Baibao.com, and Pioneer Fund Company also needs to withdraw some funds for reinvestment, so I think we are striving to sell the express navigation network as a whole in the first half of the year, do you have any comments on this general direction?" asked Li Feng.

"You're right, our team's financial pressure is indeed relatively large, especially after the launch of Baibao's promotion plan, the marketing costs are increasing day by day. Long Yu said, "If the express car navigation network can be sold as a whole in the first half of the year, it will be the best, but the time left for us is very short, we want to expand the express car navigation network in the short term, and strive to obtain an ideal valuation, which does not seem to be easy." ”

"It's true that it's difficult to make a big valuation in the short term. Li Feng said, "So my idea is that we want to strive for a cooperation with Wandu Search, and import some more traffic for the website through Wandu Search." ”

"Cooperate with Wandu, they are the top large companies in China, and we are very difficult to talk softly. Long Yu thought for a while and said.

"At the Information Economy Summit Forum, I had some exchanges with Huang Youde, the boss of Wandu, and I don't know if he is willing to sell a favor. Li Feng said, "But we also want to give our sincerity, my idea is to implant the Wandu search box in the most conspicuous position at the top of the home page of our express navigation network." ”

At the beginning, there was no search bar on the express navigation network, and users could only click on the URL recommended on the homepage to enter the website they wanted to go to.

After joining the Wandu search box, users can not only click on the website link, but also directly enter keywords in the search box for search, which is equivalent to directly entering the Wandu search engine, which is more convenient to use.

And now the traffic of the express navigation network is not bad, more than 300,000 unique IP visits per day, it can be regarded as a medium-sized navigation website, by implanting the Wandu search box, I believe it can also bring great benefits to the Wandu search engine.

"It's a good idea, we give the best quality resources to exchange their traffic imports, which is a win-win situation for both parties. Long Yu said, "After I finish all the publicity plans of Baibao.com, let's take the time to go to the headquarters of Beijing Wandu Company and visit Huang Youde." ”

"That's exactly what I thought, the time to run the fast car navigation network is running out, and we have to do our best to raise its valuation and then sell it all at once. Li Feng said, "When you finish the work at hand, let's leave for the capital immediately." ”

......

On Friday evening, Li Feng brought his laptop to the professor's building of Jiangzhou University of Technology.

I have already gotten along with Xie Changgeng before, and we will discuss the framework of the paper together tonight, and if the framework is appropriate, we will start writing.

Jiangzhou University of Technology and Julong College are only one road, and the original Julong College campus belongs to Jiangzhou University of Technology.

In the evening, when the sun sets, walking into this top university in China gives people a completely different feeling.

If Julong College is full of vigor and vitality, then Jiangzhou University of Technology gives people the feeling of rigor and seriousness.

The academic style of this university is the best in Jinshan Lake University Town, and the students are also the best.

These high-achieving students from all over the country have all gone through the college entrance examination, and many of them are the top students in the college entrance examination in a local school or even a small county.

In the whole of East China, Jiangzhou University of Technology and Jiangzhou University are known as twin stars, Jiangzhou University of Technology focuses on science and engineering, and economics is also its strength. Jiangzhou University is better in liberal arts, and it can be said that it has its own characteristics.

In the quiet campus, the students are sven and orderly, and there is no noise and shouting of Julong Academy, it seems that this top university in China is really not built.

Along a path between flowers, Li Feng came to a more tranquil faculty dormitory area.

The number of faculty members at Jiangzhou University of Technology is very large, and the size of the entire dormitory is equivalent to a small market town. There are apartment buildings for ordinary teachers, or villas where professors live.

As the top professor of the school, Xie Changgeng lives in the best professor building, a two-story villa, located at the north end of an arc-shaped pond, looking at the microwave sparkling, birds singing and flowers, beautiful, just like a high-end health resort.

Ding dong......

Li Feng came to Xie Changgeng's professor's building and rang the doorbell.

Xie Changgeng opened the door: "Li Feng, please come in, please come in." ”

Li Feng walked into Xie Changgeng's luxurious mansion, which is exquisitely decorated and fully equipped, and Jiangzhou University of Technology, as a top university, has also applied some of its own research to the building, making the whole villa very modern, even if it is placed more than ten years later.

"Professor Xie, I have written a preliminary framework, you can take a look. Li Feng opened the laptop.

Xie Changgeng looked at it carefully: "This first part is to analyze the macro entrepreneurial situation in the Internet field and the current development trend of the Internet in the world. Yes, yes, but why did you use the subtitle of the first part, 'The Lotus Pond Effect – A New Investment Model for the First Half Endgame'?"

"Suppose on the first day, there is a lotus leaf in the pond, two new ones grow one day, four new ones grow two days later, eight new ones grow three days later, maybe until the 47th day, we only see that less than a quarter of the pond still has lotus leaves, and most of the water surface is still empty, and the jaw-dropping thing is that by the 48th day the lotus leaf covers half of the pond, and after only one day, the lotus leaf covers the whole pond. Before the 47-day "tipping point", the information may be in a slow growth period, difficult to attract attention, and once it reaches the last day, the impact of an instant explosion will be jaw-dropping. ”

Entrepreneurship in the Internet field is exactly in line with this characteristic, and in the future, Internet companies will develop more and more in the way of the lotus pond effect. That's why I've used the subtitle 'The Lotus Pond Effect – A New Investment Model for the First Half of the Endgame' to summarize the trend of the world's Internet development, not only in terms of its popularity, but also in terms of the company's growth model. In other words, a successful company may remain unknown until the 47-day "tipping point", but soon it will burst out, and then invest in the first half of the lotus effect, which is the end of the first half. ”
