Chapter 49 Weibo or Twitter

Yahoo was caught off guard by a flurry of combo punches. Zhou Shi's strategy at Baidu is clearly successful, which can be seen from Baidu's daily growth in traffic. Not to mention the resurgence of Tieba, which has brought huge traffic to Baidu.

Zhou Shi also began to interview candidates for investment funds one after another, and after the Chinese New Year, crude oil prices rose again, giving him enough confidence. In half a month, Zhou Shi also met about ten people through various channels. From the selection of people recommended by Chai Congxin and Wang Zhanshen, one person was selected to be responsible for the formation of two trading teams, and there was also a president of Peking University as the general leader.

The two who actually led the team were experienced, and they didn't let go of any big mistakes, and obviously they didn't have any big achievements, but they were also the normal personnel turnover of other teams in Hong Kong, and they were replaced. It has more or less something to do with the CFO of the two sessions, and Zhou Shi's treatment here is not cheap, so he came to try. Originally, this person was Lu He, a 36-year-old researcher at the Macroeconomic Research Department of the Development Research Center of the State Council, who suddenly wanted to change careers, but unfortunately he had no practical experience and did not have many commendable research results, so the results were naturally cool. Zhou Shi had to meet for the sake of face. As soon as he chatted, Zhou Shi knew how awesome this person was. Not to mention that his prediction of domestic real estate and the stock market is basically correct, even if the real estate in the United States he is clearly aware of the crisis, especially the development of the domestic and world economy to promote the price of commodities, one by one, Zhou Shi simply doubted that he was reborn, but theory and practice are obviously not the same thing, and it is also a very difficult process to transform theory into practice, especially in the face of such a powerful person, Zhou Shi is really a little afraid.

After being distracted in the process of snapping twice in a row, Zhou Shi was not only punished by Wang Xirui, but also finally made a decision. Let him be responsible for the formation and management of the entire investment company, including a complete set of information management and risk control, and allow him to start with a certain amount of trading funds, and set up his own trading team at the right time. Except for finances and signatures, Zhou Shi ceded almost all other rights.

For convenience, the investment company was set up in Shenzheng, and the recruitment of domestic traders was handed over to Lu He, and Zhou Shi had roughly decided which stocks to buy in China. And due to policy reasons, the domestic part is a new company newly established, called Xinghai Investment. This name is also drunk, obviously the sea abroad is the river, and the country is the river, but it is the other way around here in Zhou Shi. In order to correct these small defects, Zhou Shi established the parent company of Galaxy Investment, Xinghai Investment, in the Cayman Islands. Whether it is the recruitment of personnel, the establishment of a company, or the cooperation bank, account, capital and other issues, it will take time to deal with them. Zhou Shi ushered in several unexpected people in BJ.

The development of time friends, under the influence of the real-name system of the campus network, has gained a very big outbreak, and after the year, Wang Xin began to promote the friend network to other colleges and universities across the country, and the development is gratifying. And Baidu's series of moves began to establish her leadership position in China. Zhou Shi's status, age and wealth have attracted widespread reports. Naturally, it also attracted the attention of many people, and there were many people who came over and wanted to make friends. Although the media interview was rejected, the invitation of some peers could not be refused casually.

On this day, Zhou Shi met the former vice president of NetEase, Dai Furui, and the senior of Peking University, Zhuang Chenchao. The two of them are going to set up a travel search website and want to compete with Google in the niche. At this time, when I met Zhou Shi, I probably wanted to exchange ideas with him and expand my thinking. Zhou Shi roughly figured out their resumes. Fritz Demopoulos was born in Los Angeles, USA, and is an American. I used to be the manager of the business development department of News Corp., and later I had the experience of working in Shark Wei and NetEase, and this time I was obviously unwilling to be lonely and wanted to start a new business.

Johnson Johnson, Department of Electronic Engineering at Peking University, co-founded Shawei Sports with Dai Furui, and later went to work in the World Bank, with first-class technical ability. Now he may have been persuaded by Dai Fury.

One China and one ocean, such a team combination is really interesting.

"I think such a company could be, but I have a better idea to discuss with you. Zhou Shicai will not say where to go, but where to go before Baidu is obviously different from where to go after Baidu.

"What a good idea!" said Davry

"What do you think of the self-media, does this have a future?" Zhou Shi asked first

"I think the Internet has been decentralized from the beginning, and the development of self-media obviously echoes this trend, which I think is very promising. "Johnson Chao

"Although the big media is authoritative, the self-media will also be a great supplement, and it is likely to challenge them. "Dai Fury

"Then I will treat you all as if you all recognize the self-media, in this case, can we create a corporate platform to promote the development of the self-media, if there are enough self-media people to join, I think the market value and income should not be a problem, maybe it can also subvert the traditional media, become the world's largest news platform. Zhou Shi thought about the Weibo plan that had been stranded by himself, and it would be even better if it could become a global enterprise.

"What pattern are you talking about?"

"You don't mean blogging, do you?"

"Similar to blogging, but not blogging, more precisely, microblogging. Zhou Shi said excitedly that the success of the team in his previous life made him believe that this would be a good team. As long as you find the right direction, you may be able to achieve unexpected results.

"Weibo?" Dai Furui obviously didn't understand

"Blogging is more of a showcase, and in my vision Weibo is more of a communication. We use a strict word limit on the length of each Weibo, so that everyone can read the entire Weibo content in less than one minute. Add more and easier functions to follow, comment, like, dislike and retweet. In addition to computers, we can also develop a system to send users' information and pictures to our background through mobile phone SMS and MMS, and then publish, which is more efficient than traditional news agencies, breaking the information monopoly of large companies, so that more high-quality content creators can publish content instantly and freely. Zhou Shi said a lot in one breath.

Next, they didn't talk about the Qunar travel website, but kept talking about the development of Weibo, which is undoubtedly a new field that can play a better role in a global market. It was also a relatively unfamiliar environment for them. But the temptation of Weibo is simply deadly, to change the world with information and technology, or more accurately, the human spirit to change the world.
