"Dear, dear!" There was a sound of cheerful footsteps in the corridor, and the joyful laughter and shouts of people had already entered the study, and Danny, who was happily wagging his tail, rushed in first, Wang Yang and Chen Shijun, who were talking, turned their heads to look, only to see Jessica, who was dressed at home, rushed in, she had a bright smile on her face, and kept running to Wang Yang: "I'm recovered! I'm completely recovered!" Only then did she find Chen Shijun, and hurriedly stopped, suppressed her excitement, greeted and smiled: "Oh! Hello, you must be Steve Chan, Jan told me about today, I'm Jang's wife, Jessica. ”

Of course, Chen Shijun knew who Miracle Yang's wife was, and the love story between the two was very eye-catching from the beginning, and he stood up politely: "Hello Mrs. Wang, Steve Chen. Wang Yang made a brief introduction, Chen Shijun is not well-known in Silicon Valley, but he claims to be "except for Magic Yang, I am the most fashionable person in the IT industry", which is one of the reasons why he found this fashionable Chinese engineer with an explosive head, earrings, and pointed shoes, but he thinks Chen Shijun is much more fashionable than him, anyway, he will not wear earrings through ear piercings.

"Wait!" Wang Yang suddenly heard Jessica's shout clearly just now, and suddenly shouted out in surprise: "Oh my God, are you all right?" Jessica nodded excitedly, all the indicators on the latest inspection report are normal! Wang Yang pressed his hands on the top of his head: "Wow!" If it weren't for the presence of others, he would have hugged her tightly and kissed her, he couldn't help but smile and wave his fist: "Great, great!" Chen Shijun, who was a light bulb, blessed with a smile on his face: "Congratulations." ”

"Thanks, Steve, sometimes the sudden onset of illness is a terrible disaster. The two thanked each other, and Wang Yang couldn't help but sigh that these months were really different, he looked at Jessica and smiled: "Fortunately, we have rebuilt our home now." ”

Welcoming his smile, Jessica's heart is full of sweet happiness, from the moment of onset on the set, he took meticulous care and care, so that she has a deeper understanding of her husband, marriage, love, etc., and also remembers that for so many years, he has always cared for and cherished her so much, this touch of gently brushing and penetrating deep into the bones often makes her like now, have an impulse, desperate to rush into his arms.

"Oh!" Wang Yang hugged her unexpectedly, bowed his head and kissed her forehead exposed because she was wearing a headband, and smiled at the light bulb guest: "We are so happy." Chen Shijun shrugged his shoulders with a smile. Jessica simply tiptoed back and kissed Wang Yang on the cheek, smiling like a child, knowing that he still had some serious things to talk about in the video blog, she smiled: "Then you continue to talk! I'll go prepare some refreshments." She glanced at the tea set on the coffee table, then walked outside with a sweet smile: "Danny, come with me, don't disturb Yang...... There are desserts to eat!"

Danny, who enthusiastically circled around Chen Shijun, immediately turned around and ran, and the most fashionable IT engineer was not as charming as desserts. The two sat down on the sofa again, and Wang Yang smiled: "I'm sorry if the flesh is numb to you." Chen Shijun laughed when he heard this: "No, no, I'm a fashionable person." Wang Yang nodded and smiled: "I know, so let's make a trendy website together, what do you think?" The two continued the topic just now.

In fact, the two have talked about it, he has become a millionaire after many years in Silicon Valley, Chen Shijun is naturally not a stupid person, but he is not a treacherous and ambitious person, just like many IT people who can write program code for a few days and nights, he is a big boy who is full of energy, enthusiasm, and occasionally has a shy expression, likes fashion and loves trends, is afraid of living a dull and boring life, and is afraid of being bound by the traditional Asian and Chinese label image, just like Yang Zhiyuan, Ma Kaiwen and others, are rebels of different eras.

Chen Shijun, like young people of the same age, was the first to know "Ghost Shadow Record", "Singing and Dancing Youth", knew the video blog Shoyourself, and knew the text and picture blog Blogger, although the former's popularity, traffic, and value are far inferior to the latter, and it is basically in a state of exile, with such and such problems, but it is still the leader of many video sharing websites. On February 1 of this year, Jenny Jackson "exposed her breasts" at halftime in the Super Bowl, and not long ago, on October 15, comedian Joan Stewart accused the two hosts of the show of negligence on CNN's live debate show "Crossfire...... Even Shoyourself wouldn't have been able to get a glimpse of these events if the TV news sites hadn't provided the video, as he and Chad Hurley had recently talked about at a party, and their friends who missed the stream called, emailed, and searched the Internet to lament that they couldn't "see it for themselves." This shows that people want to watch and share with others as they want and conveniently, rather than waiting for the "one-way indoctrination" of TV stations, and it also shows that Shoyourself is outdated, and a new video website that adapts to the times is about to come out.

Maybe in a few years, everyone will know this, but now, not many people have thought and done this, and they realize that this is a good entrepreneurial direction. However, at this time, the "laggard" Wang Yang confidently and leisurely told him more, not only what to share emergencies, not only some funny short films at parties, self-built paid videos, and cooperated with film companies to build online theaters...... Wang Yang said: "I have a complete plan, one day, the video website will hold a presidential election debate." ”

When he saw Wang Yang so sober-minded and long-term thinking, Chen Shijun, who had a sudden sense of enlightenment, knew that Video-Blogging was indeed a promising business opportunity, but it was a better choice to cooperate with Magic Yang, not to mention who he was looking to build a new website with, as long as Shoyourself completed the upgrade and reform, it would be difficult for other new and old video websites to do anything. Why not? There are many technicians and engineers, and ideas, opportunities, etc. are the key to the success of the IT website.

This is a very fortunate partnership opportunity, he has the technology, the magic Yang is better than the venture capital, has the financial resources, creative ideas, promotion ability, and contacts from all walks of life...... "Yang, of course, I am happy and honored to have this partnership!" Chen Shijun thought about it for a while and had the answer, and happily agreed, "One day, the video website will hold a presidential campaign debate." The prospect described by this charismatic voice before made his heart surge with excitement, a kind of excitement that rushes forward and is unique to entrepreneurship! Over there, Wang Yang also suddenly laughed: "Very good, this is good!" Chen Shijun suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "However, I hope to get my two friends to come in and partner, Chad Hurley and Joyd Karim, their skills are very good, but if I am alone, it is not enough to complete the upgrade of Shoyourself, we need brainstorming." ”

"GOOD-GUY?" WANG YANG ASKED NONCOMMITTALLY, HE KNEW THAT WORKING ON PROGRAM CODE WAS LIKE PREPARATION AND EDITING, IT WAS ALWAYS DIFFICULT FOR ONE PERSON TO BE THOUGHTFUL, AND MULTIPLE PARTNERS THEMSELVES WERE EXPECTED, AND HE NEEDED TECHNICAL TALENTS.

Chen Shijun nodded with a look of praise and introduced: "GREAT-GUY! Chad Hurley is 27 years old, married for four years, mature and stable, he is particularly good at personnel and management; Joyd Karim is 25 years old, German, he is a very rigorous technical expert, many core components of PayPal, including the real-time fraud prevention system are designed and written by Karim, they will be an important member." ”

Since he invited Chen Shijun to come over to partner, Wang Yang has already had some inquiries about him, including strength and conduct, otherwise the two of them are not familiar with each other; now the two friends he recommended should be reliable, and now it is only a preliminary intention. After thinking about it for a while, Wang Yang nodded without any opinion, and said with a smile: "If that's the case, I'm welcome, you know I have too much to do, I originally wanted you to be the CEO of the new company, but it sounds like Chad-Hurley is more suitable?" Seeing Chen Shijun say YES, Wang Yang said: "OK, Hurley is the CEO, and you are the CTO." And ......"

His calm and earnest tone revealed a decision: "I have 51% of the shares, you 20%, Hurley 15%, Karim 9%, Evan Williams 5%. I will contribute 5 million founding funds, and you will contribute technology. ”

This is like a child's play, who is a superman and who is a villain, but listening to these leader-style words, Chen Shijun feels a little breathless, this ratio is not too much at all, 20% of the shares are 1 million, but these seemingly depressed and excited emotions are not because of money, but because of the inexplicable pressure brought by Magic Yang, what is it? Just when he wanted to say something, Wang Yang laughed: "But don't think that this 5 million is for everyone to live in a villa, and call a group of beautiful women to have a party, absolutely don't think about it!" It's good to have a garage for you, we won't have excess funds, we want the smoothest server, the best website!Don't think I'm going to throw money at it again soon, or take out a loan, no! Everything starts from scratch, it's our new company, and not only does it have nothing to do with Shoyourself, they're still enemies! We knock it down, we knock down Wang Yang, we knock down all the video sites now, understand?"

"Yes!" Chen Shijun felt that the repression gradually dissipated, replaced by the gradually burning passion, 5 million is an excellent starting point, but it must not be comfortable at the beginning, and hit the momentum of entrepreneurship and programming!

"I'm going to make one thing clear now, you don't want to sell your website to Yahoo, Microsoft, Google or something, and I won't agree to it. Wang Yang looked at Chen Shijun very seriously, Blogger Evan Williams was tempted to accept Google's acquisition plan, and was finally persuaded by him to come back, his goal is to create a sharing world on the Internet, and there is enough power to support the world of flame movies, blogs and video blogs are an important part. Wang Yang said seriously: "We don't need the support of a large company, we are a big company, a new monster, do you have this confidence?"

“…… Of course!" Chen Shijun nodded with a smile on his face, if others told him that, such as Chad Hurley, Mark Zuckerberg, Sean Parker, and others, he might not have confidence; As far as he knows, the Flame Group owns websites such as the women's portal iVillage, Wang Yang is the largest shareholder of Blogger, and has an unknown number of Google shares, and now it seems that the long-dormant Shoyourself is about to make a splash, more precisely the new website.

Thinking of some of his previous "outdated" contempt, Chen Shijun couldn't help but praise heartily: "Yang, you should really put more effort into Silicon Valley, so that everyone can see your greatest energy, haha!"

"No, no, no, no. Wang Yang burst out laughing, why has some people been advocating him to go to Silicon Valley all day long since middle school? Is he really that talented? Even if he contacts computers to play games and watch movies instead of programming? Glancing at the door of the study, Wang Yang shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "My high school girlfriend said this all day long, Stanford, Stanford, Stanford...... She just wanted me to go to Silicon Valley. But seriously, man, I could edit for days and nights, programming C++? I really don't have the talent, and now that's it, don't worry, I'm very, very interested in vlogging. ”

Chen Shijun laughed, if the interests and hobbies did not match, the two would become very tedious and dull, he asked, "For the trailer of "Firefly"?" Wang Yang raised his eyebrows, winked and smiled, "That will be the first video of the new website." "Youth Musical" gave birth to Shoyourself, and "Firefly" brought a new website, and Chen Shijun sighed: "The value generated by its success will be huge." "It's still unknown whether the concept of a video blog will work, and if it succeeds and sells it to a big company in due course, does he think it might be worth 100 million dollars? 300 million, 500 million?!

"I have to say, don't despise the box office of "Firefly", haha!" Wang Yang heard Chen Shijun's meaning that "the value of the website may exceed the reason itself", smiled and quipped, and said seriously: "Do you know? Doing anything for me now, making commercial movies, engaging in IT websites, and making money is not the goal, otherwise I would have retired a long time ago." Listening to these heartfelt words, Chen Shijun nodded, after receiving 2 million from PayPal, he also felt this way.

Wang Yang shrugged his shoulders and said: "When I was a child, I thought that if I had one million, I could travel around the world with peace of mind; later, considering my family and girlfriend, 10 million was always enough, right? And now he ...... "Now he has a lot of money, and he can travel around the world countless times; but his career and pursuit are not so simple, doesn't Helen know? He likes to make movies and TV series, and he likes the feeling of making the audience laugh and make the audience cry in "Paradise Cinema", and he likes to see and create some scenes that he wants to see.

It's not just the infinite world of omnipotence on the big screen where you can realize your ideas to your heart's content, just think about how interesting it is to have various spoof versions of "Firefly" trailers all over the Internet! Just as "The Big Bang Theory" may change people's minds about nerds in the future, "Brokeback Mountain" will change people's minds about homosexuality, and "Fireflies" will also change some ideas...... How interesting!

Of course, money is a good thing, it can make life better for yourself and your family, you can invest independently in making various movies and televisions without restrictions, you can change the world, you can help those in need, and you can also make the Flame Group go on without being swallowed up and becoming more and more influential.

Many thoughts flashed through him, but Wang Yang became more interested in this new vlogging site, looked at Chen Shijun, who was also thinking, and asked with a smile: "Do you have any ideas about the name of the website? I always think of Shoyourself, but we need a new look." ”

"Hmm......" Chen Shijun has discussed this topic with Chad-Hurley, and after thinking about it, it is also the direction of ShoYourself, such as Broadcast-Yourself, but the name is too long, and Broadcast is much more difficult to remember and type than Sho, so they think it can only be used as a propaganda slogan, the name of the website? Suddenly remembering the "Internet TV station" that Wang Yang said, he frowned and thought: "Uh, OLTV? O-L-T-V？YOUTUBE？T-U-B-E？”

"YouTube?" Wang Yang shouted and stopped, sounding a little familiar, as if he had appeared in "The Big Bang Theory", who knows what changes will happen to the orbit of this and that world! But it obviously makes people more confident in Chen Shijun and the others, as for YouTube, the name ...... Wang Yang muttered a few times, OLTV seems to be more simple and straightforward, but it reminds everyone of the traditional concept of TV, and even seems to be the official website of a certain TV station, resulting in resistance. The name of a successful website must be trendy and cool, like Yahoo!, Google, simple and beautiful letter combinations, two-syllable domain names, and new and unique with a youthful atmosphere, so as to be extremely attractive.

TUBE is a slang term for TV and TV set, and YouTube is your own TV channel, which sounds like YouTo and looks like YouToBe, which is very interesting. Wang Yang snapped his fingers and showed a satisfied smile: "OK, just YouTube!" Chen Shijun nodded happily, and Wang Yang said again: "I will spend another sum of money to take down all the similar domain names YouToBe, YouTuB, YuTuBe, and YoungTube, and designate them to jump to YouTube, so as to save trouble in the future." ”

"That's for the best. Chen Shijun has no objection, although this move is precautionary and a little arrogant. Wang Yang didn't have this kind of awareness, and said with a smile: "Let's divide these domain names, they are all good websites, YoungTube is mine, which one do you want?YuTuBe?" The initial intention of the new website is negotiated, and when I heard his words and vaguely learned his "plan" in the conversation just now, I acquired iVillage and Blogger, refused Google's acquisition, and rebuilt the video blog...... This must be a big plan, Chen Shijun thought about it for a while, and said seriously: "Yang, if you want to invest in any good website, I recommend The-Facebook, I just left there, but this college student social networking site has a lot of potential, you can keep an eye on it." ”

There are many online communities, message boards, and social networking sites, such as Classmates, the earliest campus student directory website launched in 1995, Linkedin, a business social networking network launched last year, and The-Facebook, a social networking network of the former Harvard University and many universities launched this year. However, in September this year, The-Facebook was caught in a lawsuit on the one hand, and on the other hand, it received about half a million dollars in angel investment from PayPal founder Pete Thiel.

As a former The-Facebook employee, Chen Shijun explained all these things in detail, and talked about the reasons why he is optimistic about this website, as if he was sending a vote, and he finally smiled: "Mark Zuckerberg's girlfriend Priscilla Chen, she is your fan, and he is often jealous." ”

"It's not your sister, right?" Wang Yang grinned strangely, and Chen Shijun suddenly shook his head: "No, no." Wang Yang also laughed: "I'm a married man, if that guy is jealous, will he refuse my investment?" Steve, why did you leave The-Facebook? ”

The-Facebook?Wang Yang nodded thoughtfully, whether it is speculated from now or the information of "The Big Bang Theory", social networking sites do have a great future, but they really can't raise any IT interest, otherwise they would have chosen Stanford a long time ago, and it is okay to invest like Google, he smiled: "OK, I'll pay attention, it's not bad to have the opportunity to make investments, don't mess with me with too many things! My God, "Firefly" and YouTube are enough for us to be busy. But ......," he asked, "why don't you just take The away and call it Facebook?"

"Yes, I remember it seems like at AboutFace, they offered a lot of money. As soon as Chen Shijun said that, Wang Yang suddenly burst out laughing: "I thought of a good idea! This guy is even more overwhelming than Sean Parker, and Chen Shijun doesn't know what to say: "That's a good idea." ”

The two chatted a few more words, and then Danny suddenly rushed in excitedly, and then Jessica walked in briskly with a plate of refreshments, and said with a lovely smile: "Gentlemen, refreshments are here!"

"Wow, that's great......! It's too late, we're all done. Wang Yang pretended to hit her in frustration, and was putting down the tea tray on the coffee table, Jessica was surprised, she looked left and right at the frustrated Wang Yang and the smiling Chen Shijun, she thought of a good idea and clasped her hands together and smiled: "ELL, let's talk about it for a while?" Wang Yang laughed: "Okay! Anyway, there are too many topics, Steve." He looked at Chen Shijun, took the refreshments, and asked with a smile: "Halloween is coming soon, are you going to watch any horror movie?"
