Chapter 453: Crisis of Confidence 4

"Mr. Zhou, something happened!" Zhou Shi, who was watching the scenery in the villa, heard Chen Wen rushing in from outside.

"What's the matter, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Zhou Shi was indifferent, what could he do, anyway, it was impossible for the friend network to close, and other industries were not on the right track, even if there was a black swan event, it was nothing to him.

"Nearly 10 million pieces of Facebook user data, including account numbers and passwords, have been leaked, and some people are openly selling them on the dark web. "Chen Wen

"This is really bad (good) news!" Zhou Shi said thoughtfully

"yes, these hackers are so rampant that we don't know if we're going to be attacked next. Chen Wen said seriously

"Did you inform Lu Qi of them?" Zhou Shi

"They already know about it, and they've arranged for people to observe. "Chen Wen

"Are there any media reports?" Zhou Shi

"Yes, but it doesn't have much impact now. "Chen Wen

"When necessary, we can condemn these hacks," Zhou Shi

"We're already prepared, these hackers are too rampant," Chen Wen said

"Help me make an appointment with Shirley Sandberg, we'll meet today" Zhou Shi has been back in Silicon Valley for a few days, but he hasn't been to Yelp. After nearly a year of development, Groupon has stepped out of Chicago under the pressure of Yelp, but Yelp has taken the lead and completed the layout of first-tier cities on the east and west coasts of the United States. The number of employees has exceeded 1,000 and the huge workforce is preparing to open up the European market. However, the company's chaos also began to appear, and even if it did not arrive in the company, it began to get the support of venture capital, Accel Partners and Ne Enterprise Associates invested $30 million in Groupon this month because of Yelp's rejection, and the greatly growing Groupon began to compete head-to-head with Yelp.

"Shirley, I want you to change jobs and help me put a company in order. "Zhou Shi

"Friends Internet Cafe!" Shirley Sandberg knew what it meant as soon as she heard Zhou Shi say it, and it was Friends Network that could make Zhou Shi so worried.

"That's right, you also know that some people deliberately use the network of friends to open up, deliberately guide public opinion, and then want the government to take action. "Zhou Shi

"It's a bad point, but it should be difficult for friends to deal with," Shirley

"There is really no good way, but recently Facebook has also had problems, and it is more ......serious than ours," Zhou Shi said

"yes, this is really troublesome, now it's not a problem with the friends network"

"Who's to say it isn't? In addition, Time.com and Palantir have teamed up to help me find some hackers who have attacked my friends.com, and we've notified the FBI. "Zhou Shi

"It seems that the problem of the friend network is basically solved, why do you want me to go" Shirley

"I wanted to build a global social network, but the world structure made it very unlikely, so I set up multiple independent branches around the world, but in the United States, this is not enough, and some people are still prejudiced against me. I think you should be clear about these things, let you preside over the operation of the friend network, and let the technology lead the development direction of the company. Apart from this, I can't think of a more suitable way" Zhou Shi

Actually, I'm quite interested in social networking, and if you count Huaxia's Friends, it's the world's No. 1 social networking company. "Shirley

"Huaxia's friends network, I can't help it. "Zhou Shi

"Forget it, let's talk about the Friends Network, what do you think about the future development of the Friends Network?"

"Mobile, All in mobile!" Zhou Shi did not hesitate to say the future strategy, the vast majority of traffic sources in the future will be based on mobile, which is absolutely not wrong.

"What about his profit model?" Shirley

"One is CPM, which is the cost per 1,000 impressions, and the other is CPC, where advertisers pay per click, such as clicks, likes, comments or shares. In addition to these two, some ads can also be paid according to CPA, that is, the actual conversion effect, such as the use of a certain coupon or app download, etc., but this billing method has relatively high requirements and is very small. The most important model is to charge according to CPM...... "Zhou Shi talked eloquently, some things he knew before, and some things he summarized, such as the profit model of Toutiao.

......

"It's been such a pleasure to work with you, and I really can't think of a reason to fail after listening to your proposal. Shirley Sandberg stretched, with some exaggeration

"But I don't think a good idea compares to a strong executive team!"

"I know, the group buying didn't do a good job, so you want to kick me out of myself" Shirley

"You're mistaken, that's not what I thought. Zhou Shi hurriedly explained

"Haha, whether it's or not, I'm willing to take over Friends.com, which is much better than your group buying. "Shirley

"Then let's compare!" Zhou Shi smiled noncommittally

"Okay, let's see who's more successful!" Shirley held out her right hand

"Okay!" Zhou Shi also stretched out his right hand and high-fived him in the air!

Facebook had an accident and was attacked by hackers, and finally pulled the friend network out of the quagmire, which shows that it is not that the friend network is not capable, but that hackers are too rampant. The two major social networking companies have been attacked one after another, which has finally caused a bigger storm, coupled with the friend network, Twitter has intentionally or unintentionally fueled the flames, and the disgust for hackers has finally suppressed the spurning of the friend network. At the same time, the boycott of Facebook has also begun to increase and become more and more popular.

Friends.com only leaked millions of data, why did Facebook leak tens of millions of data. Many people have asked again and again that they will not let the scope of discussion of the matter be far away from the friend network, and they will not forget that Facebook is more serious than the friend network.

"Mr. Zhou, it's not good, something happened again!" Chen Wen took out a Wall Street Journal and saw that it was written: Goldman Sachs was attacked by hackers and suffered serious losses!

"Why are they so careless, should we help them?" Zhou Shi

"I don't think so, after all, everyone is not very familiar with each other, what if they misunderstand?" Chen Wen thought for a while and said

"That's right, maybe the kindness is not reciprocated, so let them be!" Zhou Shi

"Well, our business matters!" Chen Wen affirmed

"What else do we have to do now?" Zhou Shi

"I want to think about it, I have to check it first, and I found it, the CEO of Tianhe Securities has not yet taken office, should we urge it?" Chen Wen

"What is he dragging?" Zhou Shi was instantly unhappy, and his originally very happy mood was suddenly destroyed.

"I'll contact him!"

"Hmm!" Zhou Shi nodded in agreement, during this time, he and Shen Haoyu had communicated, and the chaos of Yelp made Zhou Shi very unhappy, and wanted him to preside over the work of Yelp. Shen Haoyu was a little reluctant, but after thinking about it for a few days, he finally gave in. Although he was a little disappointed to go from a company with a valuation of 10 billion dollars to a start-up company, he also knew that if it weren't for Zhou Shi's support, he would not have been able to do it for so long. And his presence more or less limits the development of the network of friends. Plus if he goes to Yelp, there won't be much financial loss. Or for various other reasons, Shen Haoyu finally decided to stay and assist Zhou Shi.

"Mr. Zhou, I just contacted Gorman, he said that the time of a month has not yet arrived, so please don't rush him!" Chen Wen

"Ah~~" Zhou Shi was a little surprised, that guy is really here!
