Since Du Qiu left San Jose, Chen Dayou has lived a painful and happy life. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The pain is because of lack of money, very short of money, although his family is not bad, but he can't take out 1 million cash at once, so he adopts the method of installment investment, the first phase is only 500,000, and Du Qiu is the same, only 100,000, a total of 600,000.

Recruiting employees, renting venues, buying equipment, etc., used up nearly 200,000 yuan, and had to leave 100,000 yuan as working capital, so when he went to the United States again, Chen Dayou put together all the funds he could use and exchanged them for 40,000 US dollars.

40,000 US dollars is very valuable in China, but it is nothing in the United States, and even an IBM or Sun company can not afford a high-end server, so I can only go to the second-hand market to exchange old goods with the help of Wei Zhiqin, fortunately, the IT industry in San Jose is highly prosperous, people start businesses every day, and some people go bankrupt every day, and there are many treasures in the second-hand market.

Even with this savings, the $40,000 was quickly gone, and even Du Qiu went to the University of California, Berkeley to give a technical speech for such an important marketing campaign, and could only put up a temporary billboard, and even the model could not afford to hire a perfunctory camera......

At the beginning of April, Chen Dayou and his son teamed up to knock out 200,000 yuan from Zeng Fanhao, and then earned 15,000 US dollars from Wired magazine, temporarily alleviating the stretched financial situation, but soon fell into the dilemma of worrying about money every day, because iView's development speed far exceeded previous expectations.

When Du Qiu left San Jose, the total number of diversion downloads provided by the iview official website and O'Reilly Company was only 50,000, but only a week later, by April 15, the number of downloads actually exceeded 200,000, a full fourfold increase, which caused a lot of pressure on the server.

Happy is because competitors are more painful than him,Netscape released scape-in the form of shareware in December last year,Free but will often pop up boxes to prompt users to pay,When version 1.1 was released in March,Began to charge $49 for upgrades,Version 1.1 and version 1.0 have similar functions,So many users simply don't upgrade,Continue to use the old free product。

On March 27th, after Du Qiu gave a technical speech at Netscape, Mark Anderson wanted to integrate the iScript engine in the iView browser into his Scape-Navigator, in addition to trying to strangle competitors in the embryonic state, and also to use major technical improvements to induce users to pay upgrade fees.

However, software is the same as the human body, digging out other people's hearts, it is a very troublesome thing to put it into your own body, scape-navigator and iview are completely different from the design idea to the code implementation, plus Netscape has just been established for less than a year, and it is far less rigorous and experienced than Microsoft and other established companies in terms of personnel and code management, so the integration process is very unsmooth, and the work that was expected to be completed in 10 days has been delayed for two weeks, and it was not until April 12 that the scape-version was released in a hurry, and then toWith the theme of "Revolutionary Evolution", it was hyped up and called on old users to upgrade as soon as possible.

As a result, the propaganda made a wedding dress for iview, because in the Internet era, the speed of information dissemination and the degree of divergence are far beyond before, after a few months of fermentation, the open source software concept advocated by the four articles has been recognized by many programmers, although Netscape did not mention a word in the publicity, but the iscript engine grafted in the browser is released in the form of a CDDL license, and it can't be concealed from those who have a heart, so scape-just released, immediately sparked a big discussion.

Some people think that this is a model of cooperation between open source software and commercial companies, some people think that Netscape is a thief, and some people think that Netscape has lost its innovative thinking and degenerated into an ordinary commercial company.

Less than two days after the release of scape-, hackers discovered several serious bugs, and unsafe and unstable scandals broke out, which made Netscape anxious, suspended downloads, and released patches, exhausting and miserable.

Although Du Qiu is very powerful, but after all, he is not a fairy, iview actually has a lot of bugs, but after the source code was made public, the bug was quickly patched and fed back by various masters, in just half a month, the stable version was upgraded from 1.00 to 1.02, and the development version was upgraded from 0.01 to 0.09, not only the bug is gone, but there are also a lot more functions, and the research and development expenses of a dime are not out, but the efficiency is higher than Netscape.

On April 16, after Du Qiu converted the investment of 400,000 yuan into US dollars and transferred it to the company's account, Chen Dayou decided to take advantage of the scandal of Netscape to spend money on a wave of marketing, and completely launched the name of iView.

The previous Netscape acquisition plan of 5 million US dollars greatly stimulated Chen Zhiyang, so that he was very optimistic about the prospects of iview, these days even his own work has been relaxed, and he is concentrating on fundraising everywhere, in addition to selling a few properties at a low price under the scolding of his wife, he also dragged his second brother Chen Zhiguang into the water, and jointly raised 1.8 million, intending to expand the company's shares from 9% to more than 15%.

In addition to his own investment, Chen Zhiyang also moved other thoughts, he felt that Du Qiu shares too much, and mastered the core technology, everything can be decided, too much power, seriously threatened the interests of the Chen family, so he ran around, using various relationships and channels, said that several companies intended to invest, adding up to almost 6 million, in this way, after financing, you can use the vertical and horizontal way to obtain a controlling stake, restrict Du Qiu, let him work honestly.

After Chen Dayou heard that there was a fund of 7.8 million, he was overjoyed and felt that he could finally be on an equal footing with Du Qiu, but after only a few hours of joy, he was slapped by the information that Xiao Wu inadvertently revealed in the email.

As soon as Du Qiu returned to China, he gave 6 laptops worth nearly 400,000 yuan to employees!

Du Qiu engaged in stock and yen investment in New York, and earned hundreds of thousands of dollars in a few days!

fxxk！！！

Chen Dayou has a superior family background, talented and intelligent, and has developed an arrogant temper since he was a child, even if he is studying at Beijing University, surrounded by a pile of geniuses, he also feels that even if he is not the most capable, he is definitely one of the most capable people, when he was dormant at the Institute of Quantum Physics, he put on a leadership posture every day, not because Du Qiu speculated to use a mask to cover up his low emotional intelligence, but because he looked down on his colleagues around him at all, and deliberately showed people in a condescending posture, directly put ridicule on his face, and entertained himself.

On the way home from the institute in January, Chen Dawei once explained that as long as he gets acquainted with Chen Dayou, his attitude will improve, which is right and wrong, yes because he really can't put on a leadership role if he is familiar, not because if he doesn't have real skills, he will never get acquainted with him.

Chen Dayou met Du Qiu three times in the dormitory of the Institute of Quantum Physics, and when he met him for the first time, he felt that the four articles were written very rigorously and deeply, and the 7-zip writing was also very good, so he quickly put down the leadership style, talked to him on an equal footing as a programmer and free software enthusiast, and took the initiative to help deal with some chores on the Internet.

When they met for the second time, Du Qiu said that he wanted to make a browser, Chen Dayou both admired his vision and was surprised by his ambition, because he was worried that his ability could not match his ambition, so he stopped and did not talk deeply, but reached a verbal intention to cooperate.

When they met for the third time, Du Qiu directly subverted Chen Dayou's cognition with iview and iscript, which made him taste the feeling of being ashamed for the first time.

With frequent exchanges and in-depth understanding, the feeling of being ashamed of oneself has become more and more, and when he goes to the United States, it has become the norm, so after hearing that Du Qiu made hundreds of thousands of dollars in New York, Chen Dayou felt that it was a bit self-deceptive to be ashamed, and he should change it to be convinced and willing to bow down.

Chen Zhiyang was also very annoyed after listening to the report, very rarely lost his demeanor, and scolded a foul word, but quickly adjusted his mentality, because the more capable Du Qiu is, the better the company's prospects, as long as it can bring enough benefits, it doesn't matter whether he can hold it, so he asked: "Dayou, when will Du Qiu return to Cloud City?"

He said that he would go back to his hometown to deal with some personal matters, and he would return to Cloud City around April 25. ”

"You keep in touch with him at any time, and inform me as soon as you return to Cloud City, and I will invite him to my home for dinner and have a good chat. Chen Zhiyang gently tapped his fingers on the desk, and after a moment of silence, he said: "I have raised 7.8 million here, since Du Qiu is not short of money, it is better to simply let him give another 2.2 million and make up 10 million, so that not only is it convenient for you to do things in the United States, but also in China." ”

"I'll send him an email to mention it later. ”

Chen Zhiyang hummed, took two newspapers from the desk, read the headlines on them, and then said: "Your company has recently reported more and more in the capital, and even the local newspapers in Yuncheng have begun to reprint, maybe it will be on the national media in a few days, and when the time comes, the world will become famous in one fell swoop, and all kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods will come out to fight the autumn breeze, and there will be a lot of troubles to be sent to the side, do you want me to arrange a few knowledgeable people to go to the capital to help?"

"No, Du Qiu didn't plan to stay in the capital permanently, he planned to move Snapdragon to Cloud City after the Internet was opened in June. Chen Dayou was very dissatisfied with Du Qiu's move, and said: "The capital is far stronger than Yuncheng in terms of environment, talent and policy resources, I don't know why he has to move the company to Yuncheng, no matter how much persuasion he doesn't listen." ”

"The capital has the benefits of the capital, and the cloud city also has the advantages of the cloud city, Du Qiu may have his own ideas, but your second uncle said that the construction period has been delayed, and the possibility of opening in June is very small, and it is only possible in September or even October. ”

"That's okay, Snapdragon plus me and him, there are only 8 employees in total, and you can work at the Institute of Quantum Physics first. Chen Dayou was already scared of the money, and said with a smile: "The place over there is remote, there are many empty houses, and the rent is much cheaper than in the urban area, so it is just to save some money." ”

"Your current mentality is right, no matter how much money there is, the company's affairs must be fair and strict, although Du Qiu is a major shareholder, but you are the CEO, as long as you do a good job, the power and influence in the future will not be much smaller than him, don't ruin your image because of trivial things." ”

"I know. Chen Dayou made a joking analogy and said: "My relationship with Du Qiu is the same as the relationship between you and Lao Liu, he is the principal, you are the executive vice president, the decision-making power is in their hands, but the executive power is in the hands of our father and son." ”

Chen Zhiyang laughed, both felt that his son was sensible and promising, and felt that the father and son had never been so intimate, very happy, and after hanging up the phone, he called the secretary in, took out the notepad sent by Zeng Fanhao last time, and said: "The quality of this notepad is very good, the school plans to purchase a batch recently, you go to their company to communicate, see if their general manager is free, if you are free, book a box in Yuebin Building, I invite her to dinner, talk about cooperation." ”

The secretary was very surprised, because such a trivial matter as purchasing a notepad could not enter the eyes of the vice principal at all, and even if he wanted to purchase, it should be the merchant who came to invite the vice principal to dinner, not the vice principal to invite the other party to dinner, but he was very knowledgeable, did not ask too much, and was ready to go out to handle it.

"Forget it, you go check the address of the company, and then drive the car over, and I'll go to this company to see it myself. ”
