Chapter 107: Time Friends Internationalize

The next morning, the two of them were tired for a while. Zhou Shi used his strong willpower to curb his urge to come to a morning exercise. The two came to the school together and found that there were a lot more sharing bicycles at the school gate.

"These are for the convenience of visitors outside of school. Wang Xirui explained.

"I didn't expect you to develop such a money-making channel. Zhou Shi said with a grin.

"We are also here to make things easier for others and meet everyone's needs. Wang Xirui argued.

"I didn't say you guys did a bad job, something valuable is always easy to spread. "Zhou Shi.

Riding on a shared bicycle, the two went their separate ways. Zhou Shi came directly to Mr. Wei's office, and he still went directly to him if he had something.

"How do you have time to go to school?" said Teacher Wei in a weird way.

"Look at what you said, I'll be back as soon as I'm free, just because I'm afraid of delaying the school. You can be more considerate and considerate of my hard work. Zhou Shi complained bitterly

"I understand you, who understands me!"

"I'm not here. Zhou Shi said, without the eyes that you would be despised by the teacher, "Teacher Wei, do you say that our Yuanpei is a little less than other colleges?"

"What's missing? Why don't I know!"

"Of course it's a little money!" Zhou Shi

"Do you want to donate money?" Mr. Wei

"Yes, it's not" Zhou Shi, "How much can I roll alone, I want Yuanpei to have his own hematopoietic function"

"Oh, tell me about it!" Mr. Wei was also interested

"I think so, I donate 1 million US dollars, which is 8 million yuan, and then Yuan Pei sets up a securities account, I put the money into it to buy a few stocks, and a year later, if the funds in the account are less than 10 million yuan, I make up for it. Then this account will be handed over to Yuanpei for management, and the proceeds will be used for Yuanpei's study, research and entrepreneurship. "Zhou Shi

"You want to set up a college fund," Mr. Wei

"That's your business, I don't have time to care about this" Zhou Shi

"Why a year later" Mr. Wei

"Our researchers believe that the bull market in A-shares will break out within a year, and we are worried that you will ......"

"Are you so confident?" Mr. Wei

"I can have today because I am confident," Zhou Shimian said nonsense without changing his color

"Okay, I'll give it a try, let's talk about your graduation defense first!"

"There's no rush for this, even if I can't finish my studies, it doesn't matter, I'll go directly to Stanford" Zhou Shi didn't seem to care, "Let's do the donation first." ”

"......" Teacher Wei looked at Zhou Shi speechlessly, this kid is really ignorant.

It's a pity that Zhou Shi is not a fool, it is really difficult for him to graduate if he doesn't have enough credits, how can there be such a good exception, in addition to donating, you may have to think of more ways, donations are just handy, if you achieve the goal according to his vision, that is the biggest gain.

After leaving the school, Zhou Shi came to the friend network, everyone was here, and they were waiting for Zhou Shi to start their meeting today.

"What do you think of the globalization of the friend network?" Zhou Shi sat on the rostrum, looking around, although he is not a strong soldier now, but he is also fully prepared.

"Isn't it too early for us to internationalize?" said Huang

"Then when do you think it's not early? There are almost 50 million registered users of Friends.com, and there are about 100 million netizens in China, so will we not develop in the future or focus on the remaining 50 million netizens?" Zhou Shi

"We don't have international experience!" said Li Ying

"Experience is tempered, no company is born successful, we can tolerate failure, but we can't tolerate cowardice. What I need is a partner who has the courage to innovate and challenge. "Zhou Shi

"But what about the funds?" said Pan Haocheng, the CFO of Friends.com.

"Let's find venture capital financing or Time Holdings to continue to invest!" Zhou Shi, "Internationalization is inevitable, Galaxy Capital has bought the domain name, and now the question is how to start internationalization, North America, Europe or Asia-Pacific?" Zhou Shi still lamented the high cost of this domain name, which really made him feel very distressed.

He didn't know how much impact his sudden toughness had on everyone, and several people looked at each other, not knowing what Zhou Shi's sudden change meant. However, no one spoke out against it, and Zhou Shi's consistent success made them have no confidence to refute.

Zhou Shi actually doesn't want to be arbitrary, but the problem now is that there is Rattan Xun and Facebook after it, unless Time Friends don't want to be big, otherwise internationalization is almost the only way. While Facebook has not yet begun to internationalize, it is better to seize a few markets first than to eat dust behind him later. Maybe if you slow down now, you won't have a chance to catch up later. The experience in Europe has made him realize that there are not many competitors in overseas markets, and in terms of Internet innovation, except for the United States, there is only China. And even if he fails, Zhou Shi can accept it, and at most he can't see the hope of success and go to buy Tengxun stocks.

The first meeting may have been too rushed and didn't have much value. At present, this group of people is relatively familiar with the American market, and basically does not have much research on other overseas markets. Zhou Shi himself doesn't know why, he doesn't want to compete directly with Facebook now, maybe Facebook's strength in his previous life made him not have enough confidence! Not entering the US market for the time being is basically equivalent to excluding English-speaking countries. The European market is relatively competitive, but the language environment is complex and the American market is quite closely connected, and the remaining Russian-speaking countries, South America, Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea are quite narrow.

After the meeting, Zhou Shi left Huang Huainan behind.

"How about it, is Wang Xiaochuan willing to come to us?" Zhou Shi has always had a good impression of this person, and after more than ten years of hard work in Sogou, he has survived many opponents. Then the company he was in charge of finally went public on the NASDAQ and started looking for a girlfriend. He also changed from a young boy to an old boy.

"I've talked to him a few times, and I feel very hopeful!" Huang Huainan.

"Then make an appointment for me again, I'll go and see for myself" Zhou Shi actually didn't want to poach people directly, but Wang Xiaochuan's status in Sohu was a little difficult now due to several failed attempts, and at this time Wang Feng thought of Zhou Shi and recommended Wang Xiaochuan to him. He did not hesitate to belittle himself, saying that Wang Xiaochuan's ability was ten times better than him. Faced with such a situation, Zhou Shi must give face.

"Okay, I'll arrange it!" Huang Huainan

The bigger a company grows, the greater the challenges it faces. Although Time Friends did not accept venture capital, it is not a small company at all. Investment in safety and technology has also gradually increased, and Zhou Shi's thirst for talent has not diminished. If Wang Xiaochuan is pulled into his own camp, it will definitely be a good addition. Wang Xiaochuan should have been injured by mistake by Zhou Shi at Baidu's work. Sogou search technology is useless,Under the triumvirate,Sogou can't see a little hope,What's more, Sogou input method has not yet come out and has been hit hard。 Baidu input method has monopolized this market in almost the shortest time.
