Looking at the man in the yellow jacket in front of him and following them into Lianzhong Company, Cheng Ran inexplicably had a lot of quotations about him in his mind.

He said: "Today is cruel, tomorrow will be even more cruel, the day after tomorrow will be beautiful, but the vast majority of people die tomorrow night." ”

He once said, "To be successful, you must have the spirit of never giving up, but when you learn to give up, you start to improve." ”

He also said: "Free is the most expensive thing in the world......"

He also said, "When you are successful, everything you say is the truth." ”

Of course, this last paragraph may be closer to the truth.

Cheng Ran had listened to his speech at an investor forum in his previous life, and at that time there were already a lot of blessings on this man, and below were many eyes that were full of energy or worship or appreciation, applauding or laughing with his every movement and witty words. There are also some people who scoff or gossip behind their backs and talk about his company's model and plan to end sooner or later, but there is no doubt that he is always on stage, and there are all beings off the stage.

He was one of them.

Most of the admiration in the world comes from the envy of the fish in the abyss and the shame of the crane.

Everyone only sees the abundant fruits of success, but ignores the hardship and luck in it.

Just like the yellow jacket in front of him, he only brought a chessboard with him from the capital back to the suburban junction of Hangzhou at this time, in fact, it was the failure of the business that the capital could not mix with nothing, except for the chessboard that could give him a little spiritual comfort, "the world is like chess, the wind and clouds are treacherous", there is no life-saving straw.

But in fact, some failures are not a bad thing, strictly speaking, Ma Yun's China Yellow Pages was kicked out, at that time, Hangzhou Telecom accounted for 70% of the shares, and the two sides had the most common and bloody conflict of development concepts, Ma Yun wanted to be China's Yahoo, focusing on building a brand, and Hangzhou Telecom wanted to snowball to make money as the first priority. As a result, when his team returned from expanding its business in the capital a few months later, he found that the wholly-owned subsidiary of Telecom had received resources and quietly expanded. So the road in front of him has been completely blocked, and the two families actually made trouble to the point that the People's Daily had to come to interview them.

And his team helped the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation to build a website in the process of developing business in the capital, and the repeated failures made him return to Hangzhou to start a business, which should be a few months after Ali was founded.

However, failure is not worthless, it is the experience of trial and error that can avoid many fatal mistakes in the future, because some mistakes you did not make in the past, do not make them now, does not mean that you will not make them in the future, when the ship is in a big trouble and turns around, maybe a mistake is to lose all the games, and some mistakes are made early, but lucky.

In the final analysis, the terrible thing about failure is not that the hard work of building becomes a ruin, but that on the way to the collapse of this ruin, a person's heart also collapses. That's why World of Warcraft has to pile up DPS when playing PVE, and playing arena focuses on the pursuit of toughness, and the skin and flesh are thick and can't die, so there is output.

Successful people may have their own methods of success, and it is difficult to replicate, but at least one thing can be confirmed, that is, they have more or less experienced some trial and error, or have seen failures come and dance on the tip of the knife and achieve temporary success.

So there is some truth to the famous sentence "Whatever doesn't kill me makes me stronger".

In front of Cheng Qi, the entrepreneur Boss Ma from Hangzhou, although he is also the first wave of Internet entrepreneurs, his "prestige" is still much weaker at this time, and now Lianzhong has 100,000 people registered and 20,000 people online at the same time. In terms of momentum, Lianzhong has the title of the first game platform in Chinese, and Cheng Qi is even more in the newspaper, everyone in the Internet circle knows that such a college student founded the inspirational story of the Lianzhong platform, which is probably an enviable goal for Gao Chuan in front of the start-up Ali.

Therefore, Ma Yun, who incarnates "Feng Qingyang", is still playing chess within Lianzhong, and at this time, I don't know how many bigwigs are "diving" in this first game platform. Ma Yun is mainly because of Cheng Qi's development of Go, which has allowed many professional chess players to start chess battles every week, which has invigorated the Go section and attracted many people to watch the game.

"I've been playing games lately to see you...... Is the business very busy?" While taking Boss Ma to visit, Cheng Qi asked with a smile the daily life of the Internet entrepreneur in Hangzhou.

Boss Ma smiled calmly, "There are some, we don't look like you." It's logical to pull people into the game to join the war, I'm busy talking about business, and some VC agencies have come to me recently, and I have to deal with all kinds of things. ”

There is a kind of oiliness in his words, which makes people feel that he is calm from the tone, creating the impression of "I am hot". There is no doubt about it. In front of Cheng Qi, Boss Ma, who is already in his thirties in front of him, has experienced "failure" and can make seventeen subordinates be beaten loyally by his set of Tai Chi boxing.

But at present, he has never reached the level of cultivation in the next generation, and in Cheng Ran's eyes, he is not invulnerable, at least in the process of saying these words, the slight flickering in his eyes and the lack of confidence in his tone are still like candles in Cheng Ran's eyes.

Seeing Cheng Qi's younger brother's smile facing him, although he didn't know where it came from, Boss Ma could intuitively feel Cheng Ran's different kind attitude towards him, and he immediately felt that this was a flank that could be fought for.

Boss Ma smiled, "Little brother Cheng Ran often comes to help your brother?"

"I attend classes on weekdays and come here occasionally on weekends. ”

From this, Boss Li Ma has already gotten the information he wants to know, the two brothers are separated from the company, and Cheng Ran has not reached the point where he can participate in Cheng Qi's company.

Boss Ma smiled slightly, "In which school?"

This time, it was Cheng Qi who answered, "My brother is in Rongcheng No. 10 Middle School, which is the best Guozhong Middle School in Xichuan at present." ”

"Then you should have a good grade. ”

"It's ok. ”

Boss Ma smiled and changed the topic with embarrassment, he didn't have any common language with Xueba, but it wasn't because he wasn't a scholar, at least the foreign language level was still top, although he took the college entrance examination three times that year, the first time he took the first two math tests, and the second time he scored nineteen points in eighty-three years, it wasn't his pot, because when he was in high school, he didn't study mathematics in liberal arts at that time, he wanted to study foreign languages, so he didn't study math in three years of high school.

The third college entrance examination he experienced, that is, the mathematics paper of 84 years, can be called "recorded in history", and the proposition group at that time was in line with the principle of "living questions, testing the foundation, and testing ability" At that time, the average score of candidates in Beijing was 17 points, the average score in Anhui was 28 points, and the national average score was only 26 points, and Boss Ma took the test under the supplementary mathematics, about 80 points, and the national average score, although in the end it was still a few points behind, and was admitted to the normal school by virtue of foreign language conditions, but this kind of perseverance and results of reviewing and catching up with the pressure of family and reality three times in a row, in mathematics from scratch to review and catch up with the perseverance and results, this is not something ordinary people can do。

Cheng Qi took him to visit and explained some questions to him, Boss Ma shook hands with Ren Qi again, and then came to the computer monitor with his back hand and listened to Ren Qi explain the data to him. And the employee named Sun Yu brought by Boss Ma took a film camera, and the flash "clicked" and took a photo.

Boss Ma said to Cheng Qi, "When the time comes, the photo will be washed out and you will be given one." ”

This year, seeing a netizen, especially to visit Lianzhong Company, for Boss Ma, it is also a meaning of coming to Rongcheng this time, belonging to a card to light up the achievements of life, and when Lianzhong develops in the future, this is a photo in his album, turn it out, and I must feel a little glorious.

Cheng Qi smiled and nodded shyly.

Then everyone had a chat, probably because Boss Ma asked Cheng Qi about the founding process and future vision of Lianzhong, and his views on the Internet. Cheng Qi mentioned that Lianzhong was founded with the support of Cheng Ran, and they are still heading for the highland of the first online game platform in the future.

Boss Ma was keenly aware that Cheng Qi was talking about "support" when he mentioned Cheng Ran, a word with equal status or top-down meaning, but he still didn't think too much about it.

Unconsciously, when it was time to eat, Cheng Qi said that there was a small fried restaurant at the Normal School that tasted good, so a group of people walked out of the office building from under the staggered overpass, and sat down at the restaurant in the snack square in Rongshi, and ordered around the round table.

At this time, all the students who came at this time were students of the normal school, and Cheng Qi was a celebrity in the school, so when he sat down, many people passed by and greeted him and called him "Brother Cheng".

When they came over just now, they chatted all the way, Cheng Qi and Ren Qi, the two partners of Lianzhong, naturally no Boss Ma can talk about, Boss Ma is well-informed, talking about his own experience, the establishment of China Yellow Pages and the like, it is really ups and downs, and both of them are immersed in it. And Sun Yu next to him looked at his boss and smiled silently, he had seen Boss Ma's ability to fool people, and the seventeen of them who worked hard with him could be called his brain-dead fans, and now he watched Boss Ma perform the "Shenkan" stunt, and the two founders of the Lianzhong platform were confused, and he didn't know how much he had a sense of achievement. As for the cousin beside Cheng Qi, he was attracted by the charm of his boss from the beginning, and he was even more unchallenging.

At this time, Boss Ma was talking about his acquaintance and deep friendship with Yang Zhiyuan, and he rolled up his sleeves, "The Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation invited him to come and see the webpage we made, and I led him to climb the Great Wall, and we imagined the future of the Internet industry. Of course...... I later told Zhiyuan that the current Chinese Internet is a pioneering period, and they can bring Yahoo's experience to China to use, I said this for a long time, but it was not until the second half of last year that Yang Zhiyuan opened up China Yahoo, but unfortunately, the opportunity is always fleeting, if you fail to seize it, you will be picked up by others, at this time Xie Gan's Sitong company has taken the lead, Sitong company knows, that is, the current Tonglang network ......"

"Speaking of the origin of Tonglang.com, you know?......" Boss Ma squinted, intending to continue to talk and open up the topic. He is too expressive and expressive.

Sun Yu beside Boss Ma is quite a little "listening" and pours tea for everyone with a smile, first Cheng Qi, then Ren Qi, then his Boss Ma, and finally Cheng Ran, he and his colleagues in Hangzhou have heard more than once about the history and friendship between Boss Ma and Yang Zhiyuan, the founder of Yahoo, and they were once fascinated.

The darling of countless capitals in the NASDAQ market, the shining existence in the world's Internet industry, is also a different look at their own horse bosses, regardless of the identity gap, which is a very face-saving thing to say anywhere, and it can also prove the personality charm and outstanding communication of the horse boss they follow.

At present, no one who is engaged in the Internet does not know the existence of Yahoo, the current No. 1 giant, and thinks that the big killer of his own boss Ma has not stunned the two young founders of Lianzhong in front of him?

Cheng Ran smiled and said, "Yes, when Xie Qian wanted to start an Internet business, he mentioned it to me, and I told him to put the news on the Internet and then buy advertisements and take the road of Yahoo, and he did it immediately, so the decision and execution of the leader are indispensable, the former decides whether to go the right way instead of going astray, and the latter determines the height you can go on this road." ”

Boss Ma on the other side suddenly froze for a moment.

followed by a column of water poured from Sun Yu's teapot next to him.

They looked at it intently, and it was indeed the boy who had been smirking since just now.
