959, cybersquatting
appeared in the class, and at noon I had an AA restaurant with a few roommates in the dormitory on the commercial street, and Wang Bo didn't want to go to the afternoon class. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info returned to the apartment, and he began to prepare for the establishment of more than ten years later, worth 5 billion real money / point / things.
When was it established, Wang Bo didn't have any idea, he probably remembered it was 01 or 02. The names of several founders still have an impression, what treasure blade, Jianzang Jiangbei, etc., after all, several future figures in the online literature circle were once the top bosses of his top boss, and they were the big bosses he couldn't even look up to.
Wang Bo first checked the Internet, but didn't find it, only found a "Chinese Fantasy Literature Society" on the West Road BBS forum.
"What is this?" Wang Bo looked at the English name following the name of the website: Chinese/magic/fantasyunion, and suddenly realized, isn't this the full name?
Any group of old bookworms who read books early in the morning/point/reading will probably be familiar with this website. Wang Bo, who used to log on to this website almost every day, has always wondered, this "start/point/" why is it not called", and the bull head is not called "" is strange, but now when I see the English words Chinese/magic/fantasyunion, it is suddenly clear.
"So, the 'Chinese Fantasy Literature Society' is the predecessor of the beginning/point/before its establishment?" Wang Bo pinched his chin, and the first thing that came to mind was to register this first-level domain name first.
And when he thought of preemptively registering a domain name, he found that the website he could preemptively register seemed to be more than just the starting point, and he remembered that many famous Internet giants seemed to have no shadow in 2001 now, and these unborn websites, he seemed to be able to preemptively register them, and when the time came, he would sit back and wait for the appreciation, either sell at a high price, or buy shares, and he would open the price.
Wang Bo remembers very clearly that two years later, Tengxun spent nearly 1 million yuan to buy the first-level domain name q/q, which is in the hands of Americans. And more than ten years later, the price paid by Tengxun is eight figures, 30 million RMB!
However, Tengxun's 30 million yuan is dwarfed by 360 CEO Zhou Hongyi, who had to vomit blood and spend 100 million yuan to buy 360's top-level domain name.
In addition to the domestic Internet giants that have not yet been established, some foreign countries can also be preemptively registered, such as Facebook, which will be established in 04, and Twitter, which was established in 06, Wang Bo found that he can go to the preemptive registration and dig the pit first, waiting for the bigwigs to jump down a few years later. If these Internet bigwigs find out that someone has preemptively registered and changed their names, such as what "Facebook" ends up being "nose book" or "ear book", uh, so what? Anyway, he has nothing to lose, except for a small registration fee.
Think of it.
Wang Bo immediately took action and began to inquire about the method of registering the domain name of the website.
After some inquiry, Wang Bo quickly found China Wanwang, a domain name registrar established in 1996. In other words, if you want to register a domain name, you can apply online on this website, which is very convenient.
However, when the excited Wang Bo opened the query column of Wanwang to check the ,,,, 360 he was going to preemptively register, he was surprised to find that all these websites had been registered.
"It seems that I am not the only smart person in this world!" Wang Bo tilted his head and sighed abruptly, feeling that he had lost at least hundreds of millions of dollars at once. Later, he also listed some domain names that he was ready to preemptively register, but they were not as famous as the previous ones, so he didn't bother to look them up.
Registering a domain name is like this, the hand is fast, the hand is slow, and there is no half-point. Wang Bo, who was half a beat slower, was depressed, so he had to temporarily give up the domain name and start contacting several founders of Qi/Dian.
There is contact information on the forum of the "Chinese Fantasy Literature Society", but it is an email address, and I don't know if it is a dead email or a living mailbox, and whether several founders will pay attention to it. Wang Bo thought he would be concerned. Not to mention the current starting point of this kind of book reading forum under other people's websites, even some book stations with their own websites, most of them are personal book stations, jointly founded by a group of novel lovers and creators who don't have much money, and all of them can't make a profit, so they can't afford to hire people, and the founders themselves are employees, and they are all hands-on.
Wang Bo wrote according to the email address on the forum, and did not beat around the bush, directly pointing out his identity, saying that he was Wang Bo Wang Zi'an, and he was very interested in their literary talk and wanted to cooperate with them. There are two ways to cooperate, one is that he invested 50,000 yuan to fully acquire the current resources of the "Chinese Fantasy Literature Society", and several of their founders took the money from the acquisition and left.
In the second case, he injected 500,000 yuan and only acquired 90% of the shares of the "Chinese Fantasy Literature Society", and the remaining 10% was divided between their founders, and they became partners with each other. The start-up capital for the business, including the salaries of several people, is all taken from the 500,000 yuan. If it is not enough, he will continue to inject funds in the future depending on the situation. Wang Bo promised that no matter how much capital he injected, whether it was 1 million or 10 million, he would reserve 5% of the undiluted shares of the founding team.
The purchase price of 50,000 yuan is a price that Wang Bo put forward after careful consideration.
In December 1999, Doremi acquired 16 of the top 20 personal websites in the Huaxia personal website list at a price of 4 million yuan, including famous domestic websites such as Golden Book House, China Football Network, Haikuo Sky Download, and Xiaolin Guangji. On average, the purchase price of each personal website is only 250,000. But don't forget, these 16 websites are the top 20 highest-ranked individual websites in China, and they are far beyond the current starting point in terms of popularity and influence. Moreover, the Internet environment in 2001 was much worse than in 1999, when the Internet bubble had not yet completely burst, advertising revenue shrank sharply, and even no advertisements could be found at all. The reason is simple, you need space to start a website, and with the bursting of the dot-com bubble in 2000, most of the free space disappeared and earlier personal websites were closed. Personal websites either go to hug the thighs and rent other people's space, such as the earliest starting point, Dragon/Sky, Hundred Battles, Sky/Eagle and other very popular novel forums are all to hug the thighs of the West Road and rent the space of the West Road at the beginning, or you can buy an independent server at your own expense. But in 2001, buying an independent server was like asking ordinary people to buy a BMW or Mercedes-Benz, unless there was something akin to a venture capitalist.
Secondly, Wang Bo was also worried that his bid was too high, and a few "young people" who were not a few years older than him had a greedy attack, lost their fighting spirit, and divided up the money to enjoy life, so that he really wanted to cry without tears. After all, whether he invests in Teng/Xun, the starting point, or other Internet high-tech companies in the future, he doesn't want to do it himself, but just wants to be a hands-off uncle, at most in terms of strategy and overall situation, of course, this is limited to the company he holds. The 5% original shares that he opened for a few "young people" later, which will never be diluted, are also to keep talents and drive him to work hard.
5% of the original shares, according to Tengxun's purchase price of Shanda 5 billion yuan more than ten years later, also has 250 million. At present, there are only two or three founders at most, and everyone is a billionaire by them.
In the future, if there are new talents worth retaining to join, Wang Bo will also take out another part of the shares for option awards to retain important talents for the company.
Good price, future security, and most importantly, the starting point is a big celebrity named Wang Bo Wang Zi'an, a celebrity gathering effect generated by the genius boy holding the platform, Wang Bo believes that as long as the founders of the starting point are not stupid and a little ambitious, they should know how to choose in the face of his two choices.
As for the unlikely event that none of them chose to say no to the olive branch he threw out, uh, Wang Bo didn't think about this possibility at all.
But it's never too late to think about it. In case these people refuse his temptation and want to be their own boss to start a business and establish a foundation that is not easy for generations, Wang Bo will have to start from scratch, or acquire or build his own, and now there are not too many personal book stations, and then use capital to teach those blind "little youths" to be people, so that they will regret it for a lifetime.
