Ma Yun had a bad year, very unpleasant.

At the end of last year, Ma Yun sold the Huaxia Yellow Pages that he had painstakingly managed, and with a few loyal followers, went north to Kyoto, cooperated with the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, and became a semi-institutionalized member.

Ma Yun made this choice, but he was also forced to be helpless and survive. Huaxia Yellow Pages is essentially a company that makes a website for others, and it is not a homepage, just a simple page like an address book, the content is very simple, basically hanging the company Logo, writing a few words of company introduction and contact information, and putting it on the Internet.

It is conceivable how brain-dead a company that can do this kind of business for tens of thousands of dollars must be.

Basically, the business of Huaxia Yellow Pages is all based on Ma Yun's blind foolishness, and the products taken out have nothing to praise.

Previously, Ma Yun was promoted everywhere in the Huaxia Yellow Pages, and was considered a liar by many people, because he was a liar now.

On the premise that you know that you can't bring any actual benefits to the customer, you can make a web page and charge 20,000 yuan, and the customer can't see the finished product, what is not a liar?

Therefore, although Ma Yun also found a few businesses, the money he earned couldn't even support the team. If it weren't for his pyramid scheme leader-like incitement, the team would have fallen apart long ago.

Mental strength is important, but you can't do anything by relying on mental power alone. After a long time, Ma Yun also realized that he had to transform. After all, he is one of the first people to do the Internet in China, and he has been reported by CCTV, so he has some social relations. Through a friend's introduction, he got to know some small leaders in the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, and his team became one of the three industries of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission.

This Huaxia International E-commerce Center sounds like it is lofty, but the business it does is actually no different from the Huaxia Yellow Pages, and it also helps various institutions to make websites. It's just that customers have changed from guesthouses, hotels, and private owners to large and small state organs.

Ma Yun's life in the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission is quite comfortable, his business is not too worried, and he is paid a salary, if he is mixed like this, maybe he will be able to become a department-level cadre in seven or eight years.

But if Ma Yun is willing to do this, he is not Ma Yun.

Soon, he grew tired of this half-system of 9-to-5 living. He is a native of eastern Zhejiang, and he was born with business genes. When he made the website of the Canton Fair to the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, Ma Yun suddenly realized that the reason why the Canton Fair is valued by all businesses in the country is that it provides a platform for buyers and sellers to communicate.

The hardest part for purchasers is not to negotiate with suppliers, but to find the right suppliers. And for suppliers, the most difficult thing is to find the target customers.

The annual Canton Fair provides a very good platform for these merchants and buyers.

What if the Canton Fair is moved online?

Create a website for interested merchants to settle in, and offer products on the website, for customers all over the world!

Ma Yun immediately realized that this was a gold mine, and used the resources of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission to conduct a detailed investigation, and soon, Ma Yun realized that this was a gold mine, a completely untapped gold mine!

It was also at this time that the miracle of wealth created by Amazon and eBay in the United States made Ma Yun believe that e-commerce is the future of the Internet, and he must hurry up. Once these big foreign websites expand to China, they can't compete at all by virtue of their capital advantages.

Ten years later, the competition between China's local Internet industry and international Internet companies is still very fierce, and no one can say for sure that China's local Internet companies can really defeat these large international companies in China.

Ma Yun excitedly reported to the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission and wanted to cooperate with the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission to make this website. However, the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, as an administrative organ, is not interested in this, nor does it see what the use of this model is. Ma Yun applied again and again, but he was like a stone in the sea and did not get any approval.

After this idea was generated, Ma Yun was like a demon, thinking in his heart and reading in his mouth, all he had in his mind was the e-commerce website that had not yet been formed.

If the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission doesn't do it, then do it yourself!

Ma Yun is not like an ordinary entrepreneur, who does things with a hot brain. Enthusiasm is of course important for entrepreneurs, but more importantly, capital.

To do business, we must first have capital, and where does it come from, which is the biggest problem.

Ma Yun found a few rich fellow villagers and wanted to raise money from them, but most of these people were not interested, and a few were interested, and when they heard Ma Yun's offer, they all retreated.

Half a million.

500,000 yuan doesn't sound like much, but this is in 97 years, when a house in a first-tier city was less than 100,000 yuan, and an ordinary family could have a deposit of 50,000 yuan, which was already a good era.

There are a lot of rich people in eastern Zhejiang, let them take out 500,000 yuan to invest in industry, they may still be a little interested, but invest in the Internet? Sorry, I heard that this thing is very popular in the United States, but in China, few people have really seen this thing, what should I do if I lose it?

If you lose money in the investment industry, at least there will be some factory machinery left, and it will not be a full loss after bankruptcy and liquidation.

"The Chinese youth who rule Silicon Valley?" When Ma Yun saw a report in the Huaxia Youth Daily, he couldn't help but cheer up.

Yahoo's market value has exceeded $25 billion, and Yang Zhiyuan, a young Chinese man, has become one of the richest people in the United States, becoming the idol and pride of Chinese people around the world. Moreover, Zhang Chen, the founder of X Computer Company, who has been successful in the United States, is also a Chinese teenager, and he has also invested in two of the most successful e-commerce sites in the United States, Amazon and EBAY, and his wealth is not much different from that of Yang Zhiyuan. A year ago, he developed the world-renowned ICQ software, which was acquired by AOL for $700 million six months later。。。。。。 ”

Jerry yang...... Seeing this name, Ma Yun smiled bitterly in his heart.

Yang Zhiyuan came to China last week, and he became Yang Zhiyuan's translator by trusting his relationship, and accompanied Yang Zhiyuan to the Great Wall, when Ma Yun felt that the two got along well, after Yang Zhiyuan returned to the United States, Ma Yun sent an email to Yang Zhiyuan with great interest, clarifying his plan, hoping to get Yang Zhiyuan's investment, but this email was like a stone sinking into the sea, and did not get any reply.

Ma Yun didn't give up, and made another international call to Yang Zhiyuan, but Yang Zhiyuan answered the phone, but his attitude was very cold, and he didn't have any enthusiasm in China.

Although Ma Yun was a little resentful in his heart, he could only accept the reality. The other party is already one of the richest people in the world, and he is just a little translator, and he uses his hot face to stick to the other party's cold ass, and he thinks that the other party appreciates him more, which is too funny.

Do you want to contact Zhang Chen? Ma Yun thought about it, he and Zhang Chen also had a relationship a year ago, and they had a good chat at that time.

Zhang Chen's current wealth status is not under Yang Zhiyuan, and the possibility of being able to take care of himself is very low, but what if there is a chance?

With the mentality of giving it a try, Ma Yun wrote an email to Zhang Chen carefully and carefully.

Ma Yun regretted sending the email, this email was a little too reserved, and he should have put his attitude lower.

"Yongming, check your mailbox and see if there's any reply. Ma Yun patted a young man in his early twenties on the shoulder.

Wu Yongming was redoing the system and couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Seeing this, Sun Tongyu next to him took the initiative to say: "I just connected to the Internet here, I'll check." With that, he entered Ma Yun's username and password and began to log in.

These two people are young people who have been starting a business with Ma Yun since two years ago, and they entered Beijing with Ma Yun a year ago, and they are one of the few henchmen of Ma Yun now.

"Nope. Sun Tongyu spread his hands.

Ma Yun was disappointed in his heart, but he still smiled on his face: "It's okay, I shouldn't have seen it yet, it's already eleven o'clock in the evening, and there should be news tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." ”

Wu Yongming retorted: "But Zack is in the United States, and Silicon Valley is exactly nine o'clock in the morning, so I should have seen it." ”

Ma Yun laughed dryly: "Let's check it tomorrow." ”

Sun Tongyu's fingers unconsciously clicked the mouse to refresh, the computer "ding", Sun Tongyu raised his eyes and looked, "Replied!"

I'm sorry, but the day before yesterday, my wife ate her own pickled kimchi, got food poisoning, took care of it for a day, and broke off。。。。。。
