If an employee wants to leave, it is nothing more than two reasons: 1. The money is not in place. 2. The heart has been wronged.

This sentence came from Ma Yun's mouth, and it was also widely circulated by netizens in his previous life.

After Liu Yun hung up the phone, he was in a state of excitement, but this sentence suddenly flashed in his mind. Perhaps, in the old horse's opinion, nothing that can be solved with money is a problem.

In the next ten years, Alibaba will continue to merge with various high-quality Internet companies, and then build a huge Ali empire, and the process is realistic and cruel, in order to facilitate the control of these acquired companies, many founders will be disgraced.

The only thing Lao Ma can do is not to discredit these founders in terms of the purchase price, so that they can get a good amount of money. He likes to use money to solve problems he encounters, and this time is no exception.

For such a liquidated damages of $2 million and an interest-free loan of $1 million, Liu Yun accepted it very calmly. With this funding, Yoyo Network's financial situation will be much better, and this money can be burned until next year's commercial operation of "World of Warcraft".

He came directly to Liu Yueru's office and explained the general situation to her.

"Is the agreement invalid?" Liu Yueru leaned back in the chair and rubbed her eyebrows, and said with a wry smile, "In other words, we no longer have an advantage on the payment side." ”

Liu Yun squinted his eyes slightly and replied: "That's not necessarily, we settle with those cooperative hotels once a week." What's more, this market is on a first-come, first-served basis, and since we have won most of the market share, it is difficult for those new travel websites to achieve results without large-scale cash burning. ”

Liu Yueru had recovered from her surprise, nodded and said: "You are also reasonable, as pioneers, we have spent more than 7 million US dollars to achieve this point without any competitors, and latecomers entering this industry are like snatching food, and the money is enough for them to burn." ”

Liu Yun said: "Now it has just entered December, and there is less than $2 million in the Yoyo Holiday account, I mean leave $300,000 as the employee's salary, and the rest of the money will be burned this month." ”

Liu Yueru looked at Liu Yun with bright eyes and said with a smile: "Which market are you eyeing again?" ”

Liu Yun got up and walked to a huge map of China, pointed to it and said, "I once hesitated whether to go north or south, but I suddenly remembered the coastal strategy of YOYO milk tea. ”

Liu Yueru raised her eyebrows and replied, "Are you eyeing Guangdong Province?"

Liu Yun replied with a smile: "The answer is correct, the next step is to seize the Guangdong provincial market." We were divided into two groups, one group was responsible for the market development in Guangdong Province, and then continued to expand to the north, and the other group slowly expanded to the south under the condition of stabilizing the market in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, and finally the two groups successfully joined forces in southern Fujian Province. ”

Liu Yueru said: "I personally recommend setting up a branch in Guangdong Province. ”

Liu Yun nodded and said: "I also have such an idea, Yoyo Holiday Network has a branch in Guangdong Province, a branch in Shanghai, and the head office is in Ningjiang, so this arrangement will help our market expansion." Of course, in the near future, the priorities will be reordered, the head office in Shanghai will be the head office, and Ningjiang will become a branch. ”

Liu Yueru looked at the time on her watch and said, "Now it's time to get off work, the two of us will get off work again, how to spend the 3 million US dollars, make a rough plan." ”

Liu Yun pulled a chair and sat down, and said, "Okay, no problem." ”

In addition to the company's operating costs, almost all the revenue is invested in the promotion of "World of Warcraft", and the advertising fee of at least 2 million yuan per month will last for at least 10 months.

Liu Yun knew very well that compared with the nine cities in his previous life, Yoyo Network spent less on promotion fees, because he was shy in his pocket. Now he has received 3 million US dollars from Ma Yun, which can be said to be a timely rain that solves his urgent need.

"I made a rough estimate, about $1.5 million, which would be enough for us to stay on until the end of the World of Warcraft Open Beta. As for whether this game can make money, I don't know, anyway, you are very optimistic. Liu Yueru flashed her eyes and looked at Liu Yun and said.

Of course you can make money, make a lot of money. Liu Yun knows this better than anyone else.

"Go on. He did not continue on the topic.

"In this way, there will be a balance of $1.5 million in our company's account, what are you going to do with it?" asked Liu Yueru.

The Internet in 2004 was full of treasures to be tapped and full of opportunities, and entering the industry at this time did not require a frenzied burning of money like a few years later.

Liu Yun was silent for a moment and said: "This $1.5 million is not enough for us to expand a new business, and now we have a project in our hands that we choose to promote online in a low-key manner because of insufficient funds." ”

Liu Yueru raised her eyebrows, and said abruptly, "You mean Yoyo Browser?"

Liu Yun nodded and said, "Yes, half a year has passed, how many users have we used in the Yoyo browser?"

Liu Yueru replied: "It's almost 5 million." ”

"Now that the money is enough, the big step can be taken, and I am ready to spend all 1.5 million US dollars on the promotion of Yoyo Browser, and seize market share with lightning speed. ”

"What do you think the effect of investing this $1.5 million will be? ”

"In today's browser market, even conservative estimates have a 30% market share. ”

Liu Yun tapped his fingers on the table, thought for a while and said, "In this way, you go back and prepare first, how to spend this money, how long it will take, make a specific plan, and let me look at it when the time comes." ”

Liu Yueru nodded and responded, "Okay, I'll go and prepare after I go back." ”

Time is about to enter 2005, the number of Chinese Internet users has also exploded, and people's requirements for Internet access are getting higher and higher. The system comes with IE browser, and its defects are constantly being magnified, and more and more users complain that the IE experience is too bad.

The dream just now made Liu Yun understand that instead of constantly calculating the other party, it is better to do it in the market. The Internet industry will always be a place where big fish eat small fish, and the weak eat the strong, and it is a battlefield where the brave win when they meet on a narrow road.

Even if one day Yoyo Browser gave that Zhou Hongyi the inspiration, resigned from Yahoo China ahead of schedule, and founded 360 Company, what is he afraid of.
