When it comes to the World Wide Web, the original history has changed. Not to mention the highly specialized content, the same Tim Berners Lee, who, stimulated by Jing Jian's constant advocacy of the Internet, made a formal proposal for the World Wide Web more than a year in advance, and also produced the first tools necessary for web work: the first World Wide Web browser (which was also an editor) and the first web server.

However, some historical inertia has not changed. It's the same Tim Berners Lee, he's still ...... Publicly announce that the World Wide Web is free and open to anyone, and there is no charge for it. In this way, the computer IT industry is boiling again, and the clarion call for a new era has been sounded.

And the value of the iceberg network has also risen sharply. As the first high-tech company with the concept of network, although it has been burning money, it does not prevent the pursuit of venture capital. For no reason, absolutely blindly, just a concept, those venture capital funds want to get 10% of the shares, and they also offer $10 million. Amazing, what a crazy time!

Whether or not to accept such a change in shareholding, of course, it is necessary to consult the opinions of other shareholders. Jing Jian has already contacted Bill Gates, and Bill Gates's attitude is very clear: Microsoft is a strategic investment and does not interfere in the operation of the iceberg. So they abstained, and they accepted it with or without a share increase.

Subsequently, Yasu Hirata was contacted. In the background was a burst of dance music, and Yasushi Hirata's wild laughter rang out: "Bramble, it's really my luck to know you." I want to recoup my 2 million principal and invest in other shares for a long time. If you agree, I'll send someone to give you the power of attorney ....... Wowha!"

Yasu Hirata is cunning and cunning. Quickly cash out, recover costs, and invest the remaining shares for a long time. Jing Jian joked with a smile: "Hirata-kun, save a little money, although the little stars are good, they also spend money very much." ”

Hirata Yasu laughed again: "Bramble, I will ask my mother for my pocket money, this is the money I started a business, and I will never spend it." If there are any good projects in the future, like this one, please take care of it. Waiting for you to come to Tokyo, many little sisters are looking forward to you. Hahaha!"

“……”

Bidding farewell to the crazy Yasu Hirata, Jing Jian really wants to find his two little sisters. Mai Ting and Lumina were lucky, they just gave them shares, and within a few days, they had the opportunity to cash out, and it was more than 4 million, nearly 5 million (because it was an increase in shares, the shares of the original shareholders would be diluted)

I called Mai Ting's phone first, and before I said a few words, I heard a scream: "Wow! Wait for me for a few minutes, I'll discuss." ”

However, before I could wait a minute, the call came, and to my surprise, it was Lumina: "Bramble, is it true? We're just amazing!" Lumina cheered.

"Yes, invincible beautiful girls!" Jing Jian would not get used to them, "Resist the aliens, and the safety of the earth depends on you." Hehe. ”

"Tell you're jealous. Still excited, Lumina said, "Hey, you say, should we cash out?" ”

"That's right. Jing Jian smiled, "Although my consultation fee is very expensive, I can give you a discount." ”

"Cut, who wants a discount? Actually...... Because you're a black-hearted ghost. If you come up with an idea, we'll do it the other way around, and that's right. ”

"......" Jing Jian's face was wonderful, this was completely the rhythm of friendship, "Ahem, I'm sorry, two underage girls." Major economic decisions should be made with the consent of your guardians. I promise you'll be talking about it and ruining you. Hehe. ”

"I already knew you were a stingy man!" Lumina yelled angrily, "You're done, you're done! You've offended two of the most beautiful girls! ”

“……”

There was a-for-tat relationship, but Mai Ting and Lumina quickly decided that they would hold it for a long time and not sell a single share. The beautiful name said: "Sooner or later, Jing Jian's company will be snatched over!"

……

After the other shareholders were contacted, Jing Jian answered the phone of CEO Jim: "Jim, in principle, several shareholders and I agree with this financing plan. But before that, there is a question, do you have a proper plan for the use of the money you have raised?"

High-tech companies need to burn money, but they can't burn indiscriminately, either by buying potential companies or developing new projects, or by taking a lot of cash and not knowing what to do?

Jim hurriedly replied, "Sir, the company is going to recruit a group of programmers. According to your plan, Padlock 1.0 has been developed. We are ready to promote to major companies and build and maintain corporate homepages for them. Strive to seize this market share as much as possible. ”

Due to Jing Jian's "guidance", before the World Wide Web appeared, Bingshan was already developing a padlock program, that is, a program for making a home page. So with the advent of the World Wide Web, Padlock will be one step ahead of the market. And those big companies, big enterprises to create their own homepages, will definitely become the trend of the future.

Jim: They are very positive, and of course Jing Jian will not pour cold water: "Not bad." But Jim, did you ever think that more and more people would learn how to make a homepage, and maybe it would be quite short?"

"......Mr. Bramble, I have an idea for a custom computer in collaboration with the White Lotus?" asked Jim.

Jing Jian was a little speechless, isn't this the model of Dell? After thinking about it, "Jim, I personally suggest that we should be specialized." It's okay to do this in the short term. But software development, sooner or later, will not be able to compare with Microsoft. And the competition for hardware sales will be quite fierce. In fact, we have our own direction, portals, and search engines. That's enough for us to put all our energy into. ”

"But sir. Jim hesitated, "We need to make a profit as soon as possible, no matter how much, but there must be." Otherwise, it will affect our listing on NASDAQ. ”

That's a real problem. Jing Jianjian carved out the idea: "Think of more ways to start a training course for programmers, publish a textbook for making a homepage, and even find a buyer to sell the padlock at a high price." We guarantee a leading edge in the field of networking, and that is enough. In the field of software, hardware, etc., the competition is too fierce, and our advantage is too small. So try to avoid it. Got it?"

"Understood. So, sir, what's your bottom line on this financing?" asked Jim again.

"Of course, the higher the better, you can talk about it. Don't forget, you're the CEO. Oh, I almost forgot, there was a shareholder who wanted to cash out some of his shares, and this time ......"
