Chapter 217: Papa Ma's idol
Ren Yi's father worked in the General Staff of the Jiangning Military Region, and although his position was not high, his grandfather was an old revolutionary. Until now, he is still in a high position in the Jiangning Military Region.
When Zhang Chen heard this, he was strange, since he was a military family with a family of scholars, and if Ren Yi joined the army, it was the best arrangement, why did he choose the three universities of Qingbei instead of the National Defense University?
Ren Yi explained a few words, mainly because there are two children in the family, his eldest brother is two years older than him, and he has already entered the National Defense University as a soldier. Ren Yi's academic performance is relatively good, and he is ready to enter politics in the future, which can be regarded as allowing his family to develop in multiple directions.
Zhang Chen knew that families with a little background now would not put the future of the family in one basket.
Ren Yi asked Zhang Chen about his selection, and Zhang Chen also told Ren Yi truthfully. When Ren Yi heard that Zhang Chen had arrested two bank robbers, he was so interested that he forgot the original intention of testing Zhang Chen's background for a while.
The two chatted for a while, seeing that it was not early, and they would have to get up early tomorrow, and just wanted to get up and check out and leave, they heard someone speaking Mandarin in Jiangsu and Zhejiang: "Excuse me, are you Zack, the founder of ICQ?"
Zhang Chen turned around and poofed, fortunately he was not eating, otherwise he would definitely spray rice.
The sceptranny, the forehead occupies half of the face, the thin neck, the provocative ears, the cheeks behind the ears, the lower lip slightly covering the sky, and a pair of eyes dripping and rolling.
Daddy Ma!
Seeing Zhang Chen's surprised look, Ma Yun was a little puzzled, but he still looked at Zhang Chen with a smile.
Zhang Chen came back to his senses and experienced a lot, so he was not surprised, after all, he was a person who even Jobs had seen.
is also because Ma's father's sentence "I don't like money, the thing I regret the most is that I founded Alibaba" is so pretending that when Zhang Chen saw the young version of Ma's father, he always felt that he was followed by a Sa Beining who couldn't hold back his laughterγγγγγγ
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was a little distracted just now, I'm Zhang Chen, and my English name is Zack. Zhang Chen stretched out his hand and shook it with Ma Yun.
Ma Yun smiled and had a wrinkled face, which looked similar to what he looked like twenty years later.
"My name is Ma Yun, you can call me Jack. Young Daddy Ma grinned.
Ren Yi was curious, "Zhang Chen, what's going on? What is the founder of ICQ?"
Ma Yun glanced at Ren Yi, and Zhang Chen touched his nose in embarrassment, "This is mine... Belch... Friends, Ren Yi, we all came to Kyoto to participate in the selection of national outstanding student cadres. β
Ma Yun suddenly praised and said: "I saw you next to me just now, and I felt like you were the Zack from ICQ, but I didn't dare to recognize it." Now you are very popular in the domestic Internet circle, Zhang Shuxin of Yinghaiwei just mentioned you to me yesterday. I watched your interview with CNN and your speech at Stanford in her office. I really didn't expect to meet you here, and I came to run for the National Outstanding Student Cadre. Back then, as the chairman of Lin'an ****, I didn't have any ratings. β
It turned out that Zhang Chen's speech at Stanford was filmed by the students present at the time and uploaded to the Internet, although the video is not clear enough, and now there is no real video website platform, but with the hand-to-hand transmission among students, it has actually spread to China and become a similar manuscript.
Zhang Chen glanced at Ren Yi, only to see Ren Yi's confused expression, "That, I'm sorry, who are you?"
Ma Yun patted his head, "Oops, I forgot to introduce myself, I am also engaged in the Internet, and now I have done an Internet entrepreneurship project, called Huaxia Yellow Pages." In the past few days, I have been discussing cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign Trade, so I came to Kyoto for a few days. Ma Yun looked calm and breezy.
Zhang Chen couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw Ma Yun's face unchanging and pulling the tiger skin. Who doesn't know that at this time, you hit a wall in Kyoto every day, the documentary of "Scholar Ma Yun" has been broadcast, and the National Sports Commission has ignored you at all.
In later generations, Ma Yun's family history and inspirational experience have been rendered by various media and articles as well as success studies. Needless to say, half an insider like Zhang Chen, even if he asks the aunt who dances the square dance on the street, he can say one or two golden sentences of Ma Yun.
Zhang Chen didn't debunk it, and there was a Ren Yi next to him, so it wasn't good for people to stand there and wait. So he pretended to look at his watch, "That's really a blessing, Mr. Ma, you see it's late today, let's talk another day?"
Before Ma Yun could speak, Ren Yi preemptively said: "It's not too late, it's not too late, it's only nine o'clock now, and we can talk for a while." Brother Ma, what do you mean by that ICQ you just said?"
For Ma Yun, being able to meet any successful Internet entrepreneur in the United States is a living legend. After recognizing Zhang Chen, he was already excited, and he was willing to let it go easily.
Ma Yun saw that Zhang Chen did not object, so he told Ren Yi about the miracle created by ICQ in Silicon Valley and the role that Zhang Chen played in it.
The talk is more detailed than what Zhang Chen actually didγγγγγγ
Ren Yi was shocked when he heard it, the first thing the children of the family have to learn is to praise them, and when they want to praise the clichΓ©s, ordinary people really can't stand it.
Zhang Chen was a little embarrassed to hear it, being praised as an idol by the famous Father Ma in later generations was indeed quite satisfying to vanity, and he pretended to be compulsory. But Ma Yun praised too much, what is his idol, the first person on the Chinese Internet, changing the world, another Chinese who shocked the United States after Yang Zhiyuan, and so on.
Ren Yi's expression was also a dance of eyebrows, he didn't expect that Zhang Chen, who was younger than himself, would have such a resume.
When he heard that ICQ's valuation had exceeded $100 million, Ren Yi's expression went out of control for the first time. He had seen the world, how could he not know what 100 million dollars meant, and the eyes that looked at Zhang Chen also brought more meaning.
Zhang Chen was really embarrassed, and was humble, "Mr. Ma, you are too famous, I am just a coincidence, and now I am only a minority shareholder of ICQ." I think your Huaxia Yellow Pages is quite promising, how is it doing now?"
When it comes to his entrepreneurial project, Ma Yun burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm. Through Ma Yun's introduction, Zhang Chen learned that it was only last month that Ma Yun's Haibo Network had the ability to make its own web pages. Previously, Ma Yun was only the equivalent of the American VBN company's distributor in Huaxia.
VBN is an ISP service provider in the United States, and one of its departments is responsible for web page production. After Ma Yun and VBN negotiated the agency, they looked for customers in China, EMS the customer information to VBN company in the United States, and then VBN company made the homepage and printed it out, EMS returned to China, and Ma Yun took the printed photos to collect money from customers.
Of course, there are many problems with this business model, so the operation of Haibo Network has been difficult. It wasn't until a few months ago that the DDN line was opened in Shanghai, and a programmer named Li Qi joined in to give Haibo Network the ability to make its own web pages.
It was from this time that Haibo Network really began to make profits, and now, the cumulative turnover is about 3 million.
3 million, at this time, is no longer a decimal number.
Although Ma Yun was satisfied with the development of Huaxia Yellow Pages, it was never so smooth.
Referring to the current development of Huaxia Yellow Pages, Ma Yun complained: "Our current major shareholder is Yue Telecom, a state-owned unit, which is very domineering. It is inexplicable that a layman commands an insider, and an insider is not allowed to speak. β
"Recently, the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission is planning to set up an electronic platform, come to me, and say that I will give a part of the shares, and I plan to go and see. Ma Yun sighed a lot.
