Time was in a hurry, and within a few days of Lu He's return, he began to communicate with 21st Century Fox, Time Warner and Legendary Pictures.

In order to put more pressure on YouTube, the cases began almost simultaneously, and Zhou Shi and several others had to take charge of a company by themselves. Zhou Shi was responsible for docking Time Warner's lawsuit, but within a few days, reality dealt a hard blow to these giants, and someone found that a certain law firm was the lawyer of Universal Pictures in the morning and the lawyer of YouTube in the afternoon. Then it caused a wide discussion, these law firms are brain-dead, is there a problem with YouTube? The more direct effect is to let them know that YouTube is still very familiar with the rules of the game.

Once again, public opinion has been detonated, and all kinds of excessive explanations have been emerging. Michael Jackson also spoke out in support of YouTube, and the majority of Internet users finally stood up and marched to protest against the hegemony of traditional media and the abuse of intellectual property regulations, stifling Internet innovation.

Shirley also went to the lobbying firm and launched lobbying to get many members of the Senate and House of Representatives to support YouTube. The rest of the world has also begun to discuss the lawsuit, and YouTube has received a lot of support for sympathy for the weak and antipathy for the media. Soon, public opinion on the Internet had suppressed their accusations against YouTube. At the same time, there is evidence that the IP addresses of Sony Columbia, Universal Pictures and related companies have uploaded pirated video resources from other companies. There are also hackers stealing related film and television companies' discussions on how to break down the oil pipeline. Among them, there are a lot of legal and illegal, true and rumored information, and the truth corresponds. These events have allowed conspiracy theories to dominate coverage of the event, and the profile of several media companies has plummeted.

Therefore, in the United States, money is the uncle, paid a great price, with the help of lawyers and public relations companies, as well as the guidance of the critical moment of YouTube, the technical support of the three founders, the help of hacker friends and other joint forces, public opinion finally developed in the direction of favoring YouTube. Public opinion influences politics and can also affect the judiciary, and oil pipelines are becoming safer and safer.

But things will not end so simply, and they are not willing to fail, and they are once again making a fuss about funds. After Dai Furui and Lehman compromised on the payment method and time, Zhou Shi signed his name on the contract. This time, the contract was signed in the name of an individual, and the time period for payment was extended to 18 months.

Then the other party finally made a new move, and the media quickly gave up the negative report on YouTube, but questioned Zhou Shi's source of funds and speculated about his red background. Things seem to be obvious, Zhou Shi is just from an ordinary family, where will there be so much money, his entrepreneurial process is also smooth sailing, basically there is no shortage of money, if it is not for someone behind the support, where does such a large amount of money come from.

In just a few months, Zhou Shi spent the following on YouTube: 200 million US dollars in YouTube shares, nearly 340 million US dollars to take over the shares of Twitter and Lehman, and 300 million US dollars in Alibaba, with a total expenditure of more than 800 million US dollars.

However, Zhou Shi's assets on the surface are these: about 4 percent of Baidu's shares, although Baidu's market value exceeds $8 billion, and the value of Zhou Shi's shares is about $300 million; Time Friends may be about 30 percent, according to the valuation of 500 million yuan at the time of the last financing, the market value of Zhou Shi's shares is about $150 million; before YouTube had no financing, it was less than 24 percent, and now it is almost 48 percent, even if it is calculated at $2 billion, it is now only more than $600 million. The total assets add up to about $1 billion. But why can it get 800 million US dollars in support, even if it is a loan, it will not have such a percentage. Zhou Shi may have to pay more, such as taking over $400 million worth of YouTube shares in Sequoia and Google.

What's more, since Zhou Shi started his business, he has never been short of money, and there has always been a mysterious fund supporting him, whose fund is it, why will it give him huge financial support, and who is the biggest shareholder behind Time Friends? Is it the efforts made by the mainland government to control public opinion in the United States? Lehman and several major media giants shouted hoarsely: Don't let *** dominate the Internet in the United States!

Zhou Shi fell into a crisis of trust in his identity, and it was a crime to have too much money, so the SEC came forward to investigate. Where did Zhou Shi get the start-up funds, not only the outside world speculated, but even the company began to doubt. Although some people still think that all of Zhou Shi's assets add up to more than $1 billion, but now his liabilities are also more than $800 million, is it really understandable? More people still have doubts about him, why do you an ordinary person have so much money? Moreover, the valuation of the two billion dollars of the oil pipe was set by Zhou Shi himself, and if the oil pipe goes bankrupt, how can Zhou Shi's debts be repaid? The financial institutions are not good men and women, and it is impossible for them to lend so much money in the face of such a big risk.

On the Internet, in the media, the discussion of Zhou Shi between the public and netizens suddenly overshadowed the copyright disputes between YouTube and several major media giants. The youngest billionaire in history (should it be?) or the spokesperson of ***? genius or devil? Is his war with the media just or evil? Zhou Shi and YouTube's fame has once again spread to every corner of the world. As for when Zhou Shi will go bankrupt, there has been a lot of discussion at home and abroad.

But there are still different voices: Why is it that Friend Time is a multinational company, but his valuation is still $500 million? Friends' companies in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan are not worth much? Friends' American companies are not worth anything? Why is YouTube valued at more than $5 billion in the early stage, but why is it expensive to say $2 billion now?

With all kinds of controversies, the number of visits to the pipeline has further increased, and the global market share has been further consolidated.

Galaxy Capital was also suspicious of Lehman's acquisition of Friendster and threatened to file a lawsuit, which delayed the merger process. However, the cooperation between Friends and Facebook, and the crackdown on media companies launched by YouTube, finally began to impact MySpace's market position. The pace of development has also accelerated further, and the combined market share of the two companies has finally surpassed that of MySpace.

Zhou Shi and Lu He were also entangled, and the discrimination against Chinese in the United States still broke out at this moment. These doubts about Zhou Shi actually don't stand up very well, but there are still so many people who doubt it. This may be a question of Zhou Shi's identity, why is he not an American, and he can still achieve such great achievements, even more than all the post-80s generation in the United States!

Faced with such a dilemma, naturalization of American citizenship may be the best and easiest way. But Zhou Shi's entry into the United States and Lu He's entry into the United States are two different options.

"Let's join the American citizen!" Lu He spoke up first, taking the initiative to take the matter.

"Why?" Compared with Zhou Shi, in fact, they are the most family and country feelings after the 60s, as a generation after the reform and opening up, who has experienced the "wine" learning & trend, if he wanted to join the United States, he would have joined a long time ago, and the reason why he has not joined until now is self-evident.

"I've wanted to join the United States for a long time, but I haven't had the courage to do so, so this time it can be regarded as a relief for me!" Lu He

"Have you really decided?" Zhou Shi said to him for a reason, half-convinced, and the results were mixed. People like Lu He obviously have their own perseverance and feelings.

"It's decided, don't change it!" Lu He

"Sister-in-law, can they understand?" Zhou Shi thought that his child was not a few years younger than himself, and he was now a senior in high school, and he was embarrassed to call him sister-in-law.

"It's okay, Lu Liangwei has long wanted to study in the United States, and this time it's just right!" Lu He's child is called Lu Liangwei, and he feels weird.

"Since you have decided, we have no more choices, then okay, let's be so passive this time, we must always show something to them, otherwise, we will take the opportunity to extinguish the Lehman Brothers sacrifice flag, and officially declare the world: I come, I see, I conquer!" Zhou Shi stood up, walked to the window, and looked up at the sky.

"......" Lu He was covered in cold sweat, Zhou Shi wouldn't have a nervous disorder, why was he always so intermittently crazy. However, Zhou Shi's idea maybe, maybe there really is a chance!!

I originally wanted to write about 100,000 words of this story, all kinds of responses, all kinds of counterattack methods, all kinds of behind-the-scenes deals, etc., but I didn't even vote for recommendations, and I still have a lot of ideas behind me, which makes me very worried that I can't persevere, for fear that one day the eunuch will be a eunuch, so I have to learn how to write, while taking time to revise the previous ones, while speeding up the pace. To be honest, a lot of the sentences in front of me don't make sense, and it's no wonder that the grades are poor, and the collection is so small, but it should be much better now! If you can, please give me a few more recommendation votes, at least let me know that there are still people watching. Thank you!
