10 September 2007.

Early in the morning, in the presidential suite of the Four Seasons Hotel, Andy walked out of the bathroom wearing a pair of shorts and a tight white T-shirt.

Yesterday afternoon, as soon as he arrived in San Francisco, he held two meetings with his two companies non-stop, and he was very satisfied with the development of his IT company, in the current world, only Internet unicorn companies can quickly accumulate wealth, which is set by various successful precedents, which is why the Silicon Valley in the Bay Area will attract the attention of the world, and every entrepreneur with ideals will plunge into Silicon Valley.

PUSHING OPEN THE BEDROOM DOOR, ANDY LOOKED AT THE LITTLE ASSISTANT WHO WAS STILL SLEEPING THERE COVERED WITH A BLANKET, AND COULDN'T HELP BUT SIGH LIGHTLY, HE WAS GETTING LAZIER AND LAZIER, OKAY, SHE WAS STILL VERY COMFORTABLE SERVED BY HER LAST NIGHT, AND SHE NOW HAS BECOME MORE FOCUSED ON HOW TO SERVE HIM.

Bent down and picked up a black jumpsuit from the void and the carpet, a set of Air France air uniforms that she didn't know where she got them, last night I saw her wearing a tight and flat black dress when she appeared in front of her, with a bright red bow belt, a black trench coat and silk A, it was indeed very amazing.

At the beginning, Andy was still a little crying and laughing, but she played role-playing, aviation service, and has always been a super VIP service in clothes, cough cough, well, it is indeed a high-quality enjoyment, and at the same time, I feel extremely pleased with the intimacy of the little assistant.

It was quite hilarious last night, but it was already past eight o'clock in the morning, and this Tori seemed to want to be lazy again, so he didn't care about her, picked up his laptop and a black notebook from the table next to him and walked out of the bedroom.

In a moment, he will also go to the newly formed new company that has not yet started operations to make an appearance, and hand over the source code of the Instagram wall that he has written during this time to the new company's CEO, Noah Glass.

This Noah Grass is one of the founding members of the original Twitter four-person group, and participated in the programming of Twitter throughout the process, but because of the division of labor at the time, the other three put their energy and time on the development and promotion of Twitter, and he was responsible for the company's previous technical services.

It is tantamount to betrayal, when the headhunter targets according to Andy's requirements, Noah naturally becomes the primary target, contact, persuasion, and promise, everything is extremely smooth and natural.

Andy's Instagram Instagram has changed from the simple fast, wonderful and fun way to share pictures with each other at any time, and decided to join the social platform, plus the content of the push text, in general, it is a bit closer to Facebook, but the text can be sent by text message like Twitter.

Although this is a social application running on the mobile terminal, but because of the social platform, it naturally competes with Facebook, of course, the Instagram photo wall is going to form a threat to Facebook, don't think about it for a while, but he knows what the status of mobile social applications will be in the future, and he will naturally not let go of this field.

In the dining room, Andy was eating breakfast while looking at the email on his laptop, heard footsteps, and looked up at Torrey, who was wearing a nightdress, with a fair and rosy face, and walked in with a lazy look.

"You're not afraid of Christina and the two of them. Andy looked like she had just woken up, and her hair was still a little messy and ran into the restaurant, complaining a little speechlessly.

"Even if they know, they don't dare to talk nonsense, the confidentiality agreement of the contract they signed has a lot of special terms, and they won't joke about their careers. The little assistant was no longer a simple newcomer in the workplace at the beginning, walked to the refrigerator and opened the door, took out a bottle of lemonade from it, unscrewed it and drank it, put it aside, and took out a box of corn chips and fresh beef nai from it.

"You still have to be aware that no one can always keep a secret, even if there are constraints. Andy warned with a serious expression.

"Oh, I see. Seeing the big demon king's serious expression, the little assistant couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and hurriedly agreed.

"Yes, it's good to know. I said, there's so much to eat here, what nachos do you eat?"

The little assistant stuck out his tongue and said, "I like to eat, okay, I'll go wash up first... ”

After saying that, he walked quickly out of the restaurant, and Andy looked at her curvaceous back and shook his head.

"Click-"

The sound of chewing corn flakes in his ears sounded in his ears, Andy closed the newspaper in his hand, looked up at Tori, who was using a spoon to feed the corn chips soaked in the cow nai to his mouth, stood up and walked out of the restaurant with the newspaper.

"You go buy an evening dress during the day, and come to dinner with me in the evening... ”

Hearing the words of the Great Demon King, Tori couldn't help but smile in his eyes, narrowed into a crescent moon, and while eating breakfast, his thoughts had long been unknown where he had flown to.

"100% free custom designed filters and borders such as...

Real-time sharing to its own social platforms, Facebook and other social platforms,

Parallel and radial tilt-shift blur effects provide additional depth-of-field effects,

There is no restriction on uploading, and you can share it when you shoot it;

interact with friends by receiving and sending likes and comments;

Full support for the cameras of various mobile phones.

You can send a 140-word text message to a social media platform, yes, in the same way as a Twitter push, but our Instagram is a mobile app.

Although our social platform is open, I think users will prefer the micro-community formed by Instagram, after all, this app will automatically retrieve users who also use this app in the phone book, and select and establish links. ”

With the curtains closed and the dimly lit and spacious conference room, Andy held a small remote control in his hand, changed the slides, and explained in detail the general idea of the Instagram photo wall to the new company programmers who filled the room.

Although Andy wrote out the source code of Instagram, he knew very well that the source code was just for him to firmly control the copyright, and it was really more than N streets away from the finished software, especially to add the function of Twitter.

Of course, in order for the patent copyright to belong to him, he shamelessly said that the function of pushing messages is an auxiliary function, and the main body is still composed of a photo wall and a micro-community, so that there is no need to worry about the company being poached because of a team of programmers, which makes the company in a passive position in patent copyright.

Noah Grass is an excellent manager and a genius software development engineer, hearing the words of the new boss, he couldn't help but look at the people sitting in the conference room, and couldn't help but feel as if the new boss is going to complete this application software, the current new company's developers are not enough.

The establishment of social platforms and the development of software applications require the formation of their own teams to implement the plan separately, and they can be compatible with each other, and finally achieve a perfect fit, so that this variant version of Instagram will finally take shape.

After Andy finished introducing the whole software application, turned off the projector, opened the curtains, and restored the bright environment to the conference room, Noah, the CEO of the new company, asked: "Boss, this is a very genius idea, which is more advantageous than monotonous text pushes, but I have a question I want to ask." ”

"Excuse me. ”

"Platform strategy is the way for Internet companies to become bigger over the years, but the way the platform plays has its own way, not that an open platform can achieve good results. I used to be involved in the development of Twitter, and one of the problems that I couldn't solve from the beginning was the means of monetization. ”

Andy smiled calmly, looked around, and saw that everyone was focused on him, because he had signed a confidentiality agreement before, and he was not afraid to say it.

"The verification of Instagram celebrity accounts, the sale of business accounts operated by the popularity of Instagram, the printing of users' photos on Instagram, and even the creation of calendars and stickers, the design of more personalized digital photo frames for online sales, etc., are all means of making money, of course, advertising targeting based on big data analysis will be the most important means of profit. ”

When Andy's words fell, everyone in the conference room was amazed and stunned, especially Noah was shocked and exclaimed with a wry smile: "This may be the most correct career choice for me." With this idea, and a reliable means of making a profit, it will be very easy for us to raise funds!"

Andy can only smile in return, in fact, he knows better than anyone else that in addition to targeted advertising and enterprise accounts, the rest of the profit methods are all petty fights, making a service fee, hard money, but it is always a means of making money, no matter how small the mosquito meat is, it is also meat, and it is enough to fool venture capital.

In addition to the game company, the app software application store will not seek venture capital, the remaining Internet companies will develop to a certain extent when external financing, this is the best way to expand rapidly, unless he is crazy will choose to use his own money to burn, he also knows that there are already many people waiting for him to loosen his mouth, open the opening of external financing, not only silently waiting, many times, to participate in the cocktail dinner, some bankers, tycoons, investment banks will actively communicate with him, hoping to get financing opportunities。

With Andy's deeper understanding of the American political and economic superstructure, the more he understands the benefits distribution system that has always existed in American society, only by abiding by the rules of the game, can we get help, otherwise it will be squeezed out and suppressed.
