Chapter 97: Imperative
After the number of registered users exceeded 100,000, the school intranet released a homepage announcement announcing the good news, which immediately caused a wave again, and its own users were also very excited.
Because of Mingqiao's huge fame in the field of online novels and pop songs, many people expected that the growth rate of registered users on the school intranet would be very fast.
But a brand new website has more than 100,000 registered users in just one day, which still surprises many people.
In addition to the websites and media outlets contacted by Tang Jining, many other media outlets also automatically joined the ranks of reporting on the intranet, because the results of the intranet were enough to be news.
Of course, many of them also reported on Ming Qiao's new song "Chinese Words", and then reported on the school intranet by the way.
In addition, the intranet of the school has not only been paid attention to by Wang Xing, but also entered the field of vision of many Internet giants and venture capital institutions.
However, these formal institutions are not as liberal as Wang Xing, and they need to meet to discuss, then evaluate, and then meet to make decisions before they can reach out to the intranet.
What's more, Wei Mingrang's age is too young, and everyone is still waiting to see if he can really do it on the school intranet.
Therefore, on the day of December 2, only Wang Xing put it into practice and boarded the plane to Chongqing.
In the evening, Wei Mingrang, who had returned to the dormitory after eating the celebration banquet with the company's employees, received a call from Lu Junjie, the programmer on duty: "Mr. Wei, a person named Wang Xing just called and said that he wanted to be the first round of angel investors in the school's intranet, and asked if it would be convenient to visit the company tomorrow, and then talk to you." ”
Hearing the name Wang Xing, Wei Mingrang was taken aback.
In the original history, the founder of the intranet was Wang Xing, and Wei Ming made the intranet tense during this time, and Wang Xing's name often appeared in his mind.
Later, Wang Xing created Meituan and became a celebrity on the Forbes China Rich List.
However, the name Wang Xing is too popular, and the re-naming is very high. Is this Wang Xing that Lu Junjie said the founder of the school intranet and Meituan in his mind?
So, Wei Mingrang asked, "Did you ask him what his background is and how many assets he has?"
Lu Junjie said: "I didn't ask, he introduced himself, saying that he was a doctor of computer science who came back from studying in the United States, studied at Tsinghua University as an undergraduate, and had millions of funds in his hands. ”
Hearing this introduction, Wei Mingrang felt that ninety percent of the nine was the Wang Xing who originally founded the school intranet.
However, Wang Xing said that he wanted to come to the angel investor, but in fact, could it be that he came to Xingshi to ask for the guilt and question himself for plagiarizing his ideas?
Because he didn't know that Wang Xing only took a few days from the idea to the launch of the website in the original history, Wei Mingrang thought that even if he launched the website 8 days earlier than the original history, there must be a collision between the two sides.
However, his intranet has more functions than in the original history, and the registration mechanism is not the same, and he just imitates Facebook, has no intersection with Wang Xing, does not plagiarize his ideas, and the other party has nothing to do with him.
If you avoid it, you will appear empty-hearted.
What's more, this is still the founder of Meituan, and Wei Ming's assets reached about 40 billion before Wang Xing's rebirth.
Such a super-rich man, Wei Mingrang couldn't see him at all before he was reborn, let alone sit down and chat.
The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and when they see him first, they will also be regarded as rising knowledge.
So, Wei Mingrang said to Lu Junjie: "Please tell Wang Xing and welcome him to the company tomorrow." ”
Lu Junjie responded, hung up the phone, called Wang Xing back, and told Wei Mingrang that Wang Xing was welcome to visit the cloud company tomorrow, and informed the other party of the specific address of the cloud company.
In a hotel in Nanping, Wang Xing, who got a reply from the other party, clenched his fists.
At this time, he was searching the computer in his hotel room for today's report on the intranet on the Internet.
The school intranet exceeded 100,000 registered users in the morning, and now I don't know how much it has risen.
The more Wang Xing thought about it, the more he felt that he had to seize the opportunity of the first round of investment, and perhaps in the future, he would make as much money as those who invested in Google in the early stage.
However, thinking of the growth momentum of users in the school's intranet, Wang Xing also felt a little hazy in his heart.
That's a lot of growth.
Facebook, founded in February 2004, received its first $500,000 angel investment in July when it had less than 500,000 registered users, but investors only took a 10.2% stake.
In other words, Facebook was valued at more than $5 million when it was founded less than half a year ago and had less than 500,000 registered users.
In May of this year, Facebook received another $12.7 million venture capital from the investment company, and the investment company took a 10% stake.
In other words, Facebook, which was founded in February 2004, has only grown for a little over a year, and in May 2005, when there were only about four million registered users, it was valued at more than $100 million.
With the development momentum of Wei Mingrang's intranet, I am afraid that in less than a week, the number of registered users will exceed 500,000.
If Facebook's valuation method is followed, the school's intranet will be valued at more than $5 million, or more than 40 million yuan, in a week.
And a year later, if the development goes smoothly, Wang Xing is a little unimaginable.
Any reasonable entrepreneur will not be in a hurry to accept investment and sell shares when encountering this situation, especially when Wang Xing only has more than 1 million funds and is not of great help to the company.
It only depends on whether Wei Mingrang will accept Wang Xing's investment because he has not seen so much money, lack of funds, lack of connections, lack of knowledge and other factors.
Even if the shares are less, Wang Xing is bound to win.
……
Saturday, December 3, was supposed to be a weekend, but the company was created and it was the first weekend of the website, and everyone volunteered to work overtime.
Of course, there is overtime pay for overtime.
After having breakfast at the school in the morning, Wei Mingrang walked to the company, and along the way, classmates and alumni kept greeting him.
Wei Mingrang has become a celebrity at Chongqing Technology and Business University.
When I arrived at the company, the number of registered users on the school intranet was close to 200,000, and the growth rate was still super fast.
After 9 o'clock in the morning, Wang Xing followed the address to the Lanhutian business district, found the network cloud company, and after Daoming came, he was led to Wei Mingrang's small office by Zhou Xuening, the cashier who acted as a receptionist.
Zhou Xuening knocked on the door, Wei Ming gave a "come in", and then Zhou Xuening unscrewed the door and said, "Mr. Wei, Wang Xing, who made an appointment last night, is here." ”
Wei Mingrang, who was coding words, looked up and saw the young face of the founder of Meituan that he had seen on the Internet, stood up and left the computer desk, shook hands with Wang Xing while greeting him, and said, "Hello, I'm Wei Mingrang, that is, Mingqiao, please take a seat." ”
Wang Xing, who was only 26 years old, shook hands with Wei Mingrang, nodded and smiled: "Hello, I'm Wang Xing." ”
Then, the two sat down on the sofa, and Zhou Xuening helped Wang Xing make a cup of tea, and then went out.
