334 [Traffic Explosion]
Larry and Sergey had long had the idea of starting their own company, and when they discussed the name of the company, they simply said the name "Google".
Google is Googol, or 10 to the 100th power, which is more than the total number of elementary particles in the universe, meaning "infinity".
In comparison, Song Weiyang is not so domineering, he didn't even bother to occupy "Baidu", and directly named the new company "Sogou". Animal-based, it's hard to listen to and easy to remember, and you'll get used to it when you hear it a lot.
Three days later, Song Weiyang traveled to Port City and then to the Cayman Islands.
In the name of Taurus Capital, Song Weiyang registered a "Altair International Venture Capital Company" in the British Cayman Islands, and then established Google with Larry and Sergei in the name of "Altair Venture Capital" and Song Weiyang himself.
As a result, Google's shares are composed as follows: Altair Ventures (49%), Song Weiyang (6%), Ali Page (23%), Sergey Brin (22%).
In addition, the 6% stake held by Song Weiyang is permanently granted to Larry and Sergei 3% of the voting rights each.
As a result, Larry and Sergey, although combined with only 45% of the shares, have the equivalent of 51% of the voting rights and have absolute control over Google's board of directors.
Or rather, Larry and Sergey will control Google forever.
Even if Wall Street capital comes in the future, the two of them can still fully control the company through a dual-class share structure (one vote is equal to several votes of others), and they don't need to look at the faces of any investors.
The idea came from Sergei, who was not only a Soviet immigrant, but also a Jew with an innate gift for commercial capital.
Returning to China, the search engine project was separated from Sohu.com, which owns 5% of the shares of "Sogou Network Technology Company".
For a more intuitive understanding, we list the composition of the company's shares invested by Song Weiyang -
Xifeng Company: Song Weiyang (60.5%), Song Qizhi (20%), Guo Xiaolan (8.5%), Yang Xin (5%), Zheng Xuehong (5%), Chen Tao (0.5%), management (0.5%).
Xianjiu Group: Song Weiyang (10%), Song Qizhi (30%), Song Shumin, Guo Xiaolan and his wife (24.5%), entrepreneurial veterans, management and employee shareholding (35.5%).
Shenghai Light Textile: Song Weiyang (1.5%), Chen Tao (7.5%), Cai Zhiping (66%), other shareholders (25%).
Kingsoft: Song Weiyang (25%), Zhang Xuanlong (25%), Qiu Bojun (25%), Lei Jun (15%), employee stock ownership (10%).
Shenzhou Technology: Song Weiyang (40%), Shen Fuxing (1%), Taurus Capital (56%), management (3%).
Sohu: Song Weiyang (55%), Zhang Chaoyang (39.5%), Ding Ming (5.5%).
Sogou search: Song Weiyang (30%), Taurus Capital (30%), Ding Ming (35%), Sohu Network (5%).
Google searches: Song Weiyang (6%), Altair Ventures (49%), Ali Page (23%), Sergey Brin (22%).
Altair Ventures: Taurus Capital (100%).
Taurus Capital: Song Weiyang (79.3%), Citi China (5.9%), Oriental Hope (2.6%), New Hope (2.1%), Shenghai Textile (1.8%), BBK (1.3%), Fosun (0.9%), Xifeng (1.6%), Xianjiu Group (1.5%), Geely (1.2%), Gangcheng Sitong (0.8%), Zheng Xuehong (0.46%), Chen Tao (0.46%), Guo Xiaochun (0.08%).
After two consecutive personal investments in Google and Sogou, Song Weiyang had insufficient funds and could only sell 1.5% of the equity of Golden Bull Capital to Citibank (China), which previously held less than 5% of the shares of Golden Bull Capital.
Let's talk about Taurus Capital, which is quite famous in China and Southeast Asia at this time.
One is because he keeps drinking soup with Soros, and the other is because he invested in Shenzhou Technology.
As long as you are not blind, you can see how profitable the PHS business of Shenzhou Technology is, and this investment can be called a million profits!
Because of this, when Citi China learned that Song Weiyang wanted to sell the equity of Taurus Capital, it hurriedly spent a huge amount of money to eat, so that Song Weiyang now has a very surplus of cash in his hand.
Since the headquarters of Golden Bull Capital is located in Hong Kong City, the tycoons in Hong Kong City are also red-eyed, but due to the financial crisis, it is difficult to do their own business, so they did not come to talk about buying shares.
At the same time, Song Weiyang went to Hong Kong City this time and improved the management of Taurus Capital.
Custody manager Zhu Jialiang officially resigned from Citi China to serve as the head of Taurus Capital; chief trader He Guoming also resigned from Citi China to serve as the head of the securities department of Taurus Capital; and his brother-in-law Guo Xiaochun still served as a corporate legal person, holding 0.08% of the shares, which was enough for him to eat for a lifetime.
……
On the second day of February, the dragon raised its head.
February 28, 1998 in the Gregorian calendar.
With a protracted recession in China's stock market, Ning Caishen no longer knows what to do. He has a seat on the exchange, which he has partnered with a friend, and now he can't find any clients, and they don't dare to invest in securities themselves.
Ning Caishen made the money in the past few years, but now he has only lost about 100,000 yuan, and he laughs at himself for being a poor person in the north, and he only knows how to surf the Internet and play games all day long.
wrote another ghost story and spread it on the Internet, Ning Caishen clicked on Sohu News, and the social headlines were: Shuozhou fake wine has flowed into many places, causing 27 deaths and hospitalization.
The content of the news made people angry, a farmer in Wenshui used 34 tons of methanol and mixed it into 57.5 tons of fake wine for sale, and the methanol content exceeded the standard by 902 times.
Ning Caishen pulled the webpage to the bottom, and suddenly saw a text input box, and there was a line of red words on it: I'll say two sentences (please don't make remarks that violate national laws and morals).
Can you still comment on watching the news online?
Ning Caishen was quite surprised, and immediately turned his attention to the comment area, and there were already more than 300 comments from netizens at this time.
"Making and selling fake liquor is not shallow to people, and it should be killed!"
"You have to shoot, not shooting is not enough to make people angry!"
"Wenshui fake wine is well-known all over the world. ”
"I've been to Wenshui, and it started selling fake wine 10 years ago, and Wenshui fakes are only inferior to Wenzhou. There is a sentence that is very appropriate: except for *** is true, everything else is fake. ”
"Haha, and Wu Zetian is true. ”
"Your mother is a fake, everyone who insults Wenshui people will die!"
"Stupid garbage, only knows how to swear. ”
"What's wrong with me scolding you, you're a mongrel!"
"Okay, don't quarrel with the two of you, I'm also a Wenshui person. There are indeed a lot of fakes here, but there are fewer than before, and we are correcting them step by step. ”
"Nirma!"
“……”
The content of this news is very short, Ning Caishen read it in three minutes, but the following netizens commented that he watched it for eight minutes.
The comments are better than the news, and the quarrels are so exciting!
Ning Caishen was also about to type and scold a few words, but when he clicked send, he received a prompt: You are not a member of Sohu.com, please log in or register.
After successful registration in minutes, Ning Caishen saw a prompt again: You have become an ordinary member of Sohu.com, and you can get points by logging in, clicking and commenting, and the point use function will be opened in seven days.
"Yo, can you still earn points to upgrade?" Ning Caishen seemed to have discovered a new continent.
"Fake wine harms people, kills, kills, kills, kills!"
When a comment is posted, the words "+0.5 points" immediately appear.
"I'll kill again!"
did not receive a bonus point prompt, Ning Caishen clicked into the background to take a closer look at the rules, only to find that the comments made within 3 minutes were only counted as one valid points.
Then click on the news, and there is indeed 0.1 points for one click, but only one valid click is counted within 3 minutes.
Even under those ordinary news, there are at least 30 comments on average, and the content is basically: work hard to earn points, I will earn points too, points are so difficult to earn, I heard that you can earn points, what is the use of points, I don't know, I will earn it first......
Ning Caishen was idle and had nothing to do, all kinds of clicks, all kinds of comments, and finally stayed up until seven days later.
As soon as you log in to the user background, you will receive a prompt - your points are greater than 50, please select race: human, elf, orc, dragon......
Ning Caishen chose "orc", and received a hint - you are already an orc warrior, you have a strong physique and bloodthirsty will, and the weak only deserve to be trampled under your feet......
Let's look at the advanced schematic diagram behind, 500 points can be upgraded to an orc berserker, and 5000 points can be upgraded to an orc god of war.
And when Ning Caishen comments under the news, his ID is displayed as "Junior Orc Warrior (Ning Caishen)".
Each profession can learn skills, and there is no winner in the comment area, and users can also log in to "Sohu MUD" for heads-up, and the data on both sides is connected.
Ning Caishen spent points to learn a charging skill, and couldn't wait to find someone to fight alone, and as a result, he had to download the game program.
The two sides quickly enter the word game screen:
"The junior orc warrior (Ning Caishen) roared angrily and used [Charge] to kill the human mage (big brother), dealing 18 damage. ”
"The apprentice human mage (big brother) is not afraid of danger and creates [magic shield] for defense, which temporarily increases defense by 5 points for three rounds. ”
"The junior orc warrior (Ning Caishen) slashes the giant axe, dealing 4 damage to the human mage (big brother). ”
"The apprentice human mage (big brother) raised his staff aloft and shot out a small fireball, dealing 5 damage to the junior orc warrior (Ning Caishen). ”
“……”
Nine rounds later, Ning Caishen was killed by the magician with a small fireball, and the magician was only left with a pitiful 4 points of blood.
When there are only the same number of skills at the same level, the damage of Ping A is random, and it all depends on luck, and the magician is lucky, and there is a "dodge".
Switching back to the webpage, the apprentice human magician (big brother) has already begun to mock in the comment area: "Your subordinates are defeated, and you dare to make noise, suffer death!"
Lao Tzu wants to earn points, Lao Tzu wants to upgrade, and Lao Tzu wants to learn skills!
Ning Caishen began to click on the news everywhere, frantically commenting, and contributing to the surge in Sohu traffic.
When Wall Street venture capitalists came to China, they were dumbfounded when they looked at Sohu's traffic data in recent months, and thought that Sohu was cheating and cheating on financing.
