Chapter 101: Windfall

"I now believe more and more in the word fate, maybe my acquaintance with Mr. Lin is fate. ”

Lin Fan chuckled, "It seems that Mr. Chen is in a good mood." ”

"Of course, the company has a future. Chen Shijun's face was full of satisfaction, "The most important thing is that Carl paid the price for his arrogance this time. ”

Lin Fan didn't answer this sentence, Carl paid the price, but Lin Fan took a big advantage. Besides, he also does not agree with Chen Shijun's attitude and way of dealing with problems, doing business is not destined to be smooth sailing, and he will encounter all kinds of people and things, and the best solution is to seek common ground while reserving differences, rather than opposing each other.

Originally, Lin Fan was also going to tell Chen Shijun that this chance encounter was arranged by him, and he wanted to use this confession to gain Chen Shijun's friendship, after all, Chen Shijun is a talent. But now that Lin Fan decided to give up this idea, and after only five days of getting along, he could see the arrogance in Chen Shijun's heart, this is a conceited person.

In history, after Chen Shijun sold YouTube, he was young and rich, and he was naturally full of frivolity, until he was diagnosed with a brain tumor later, and his temperament gradually recovered in the process of cure.

Now Chen Shijun is not a good friend, and in Lin Fan's mind, he can only be regarded as a business partner, "Mr. Chen, I will be consistent with you on the board of directors, and my voting rights will be fully granted to you." ”

"This is the best news I've heard in recent times, and I'm sure I won't let Mr. Lin down. ”

Lin Fan didn't feel much about Chen Shijun's surprise, YouTube's previous brewing operation, will soon explode in the next few months, in July and August, the number of YouTube views exceeded 100 million, this data will shock the world, and it is this data that has attracted Google's attention and laid the groundwork for the next acquisition.

"Mr. Lin, there is a request that I hope to be able to get your consent to. ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

"I'm hoping to withdraw some of my money. Chen Shijun's gaze was very frank, "The members of the company have been working for more than ten months, and I feel that they need to be rewarded." ”

However, Lin Fan thought more, maybe it was normal for Chen Shijun to sell YouTube in history, this is a person who loves money, and he doesn't really take technology to change life as his lifelong pursuit and ideal. Many promising companies have encountered acquisitions by large companies in the process of development, such as Facebook, which has faced a takeover from Google, but Mark refused. Why do some people accept and some people reject? Look at their future, Mark has taken the world by storm and changed the world, Chen Shijun is still just an ordinary billionaire.

"I can understand this demand, how much you want to have. Lin Fan is not ready to refuse Chen Shijun, in the history of this financing Chen Shijun received 8 million and can make YouTube so good, not to mention his own 10 million, besides, knowing that Chen Shijun loves money, he will be in charge of YouTube for a few more months at most, and he doesn't mind maintaining a good relationship with Chen Shijun during this time.

"How about 1.5 million?" Chen Shijun licked his lips, he could finally get hundreds of thousands of this amount, he could change to a relatively comfortable apartment, and then live a more happy life.

"I don't think I can find a reason to say no. ”

The hands of the two men were clasped together........

San Francisco Chinatown, the investment with Chen Shijun has been finalized, Lin Fan is ready to leave the United States, go shopping with Liu Yifei in the afternoon, as gifts from relatives and friends, and go to Chinatown for the last meal in the evening.

"Ah Hua, it's old. ”

"Okay. ”

Liu Yifei pouted, "It's not sincere to invite me to dinner, and I won't even be allowed to see the menu." ”

"Most of the dishes in the old ones are your favorite dishes, and you still need to look at the menu?"

"Don't you know that girls like to be respected? ”

"It's too tiring to live like that. ”

Liu Yifei was helpless, she couldn't see through Lin Fan at all, she was obviously a young man, but she didn't have the vitality of a young man, she was old-fashioned in her work, and she was old-fashioned in her talking, but the more Lin Fan was like this, the more curious she was.

"Hey man, we're meeting again. ”

Lin Fan looked at the white man who greeted him in some surprise, "Jack?" and then smiled, "Should you still come here to punish yourself?"

"Do you mind if I sit here?" with Lin Fan's permission, "I've fallen in love with Huaxia cuisine, and now it's a treat for me, and I'll come once a week as a reward for me." ”

"Your problem has been solved?" Lin Fan was very curious about this question, after all, he was the one he had encouraged.

"You know, the problem is going to be there all the time, it's not that easy to succeed, the important thing is that I'm doing it and I'm enjoying the process. ”

Liu Yifei blinked, "Doesn't that mean you still haven't solved the problem?"

Lin Fan immediately glared at Liu Yifei, is this girl stupid, not to mention that everyone is not so familiar, "Jack, does Miss Liu mean that you are experiencing great difficulties?"

Jack smiled kindly, he was not angry, this is also related to the fact that he has a speech disorder since he was a child, and the illness makes him more calm, "Mr. Lin doesn't need to explain, the problem we encountered is not unspeakable, this problem should be a problem that every startup will encounter." ”

"Lack of money?" Lin Fan couldn't help blurting out.

Jack nodded in surprise, "I didn't expect Mr. Lin to know so much about startups?"

"I'm also in this industry, and I'm here to invest in a company. When Lin Fan said this, his mind moved, "Jack, if you don't mind, you can tell me about your company, and I may be able to give you a little advice." ”

"Two colleagues and I founded a company, which is based on blogging technology, but the company is not very good, our products have been successfully developed, but there is no market prospect, and most importantly, no one wants to pay for our company. ”

"Blogging, as far as I know, blogs should be very popular in the United States and other countries. ”

"No, we're a microblog, and the name of the site is Twitter, because Twitter is a bird's call, and the characteristics of the call are short, frequent, and fast, and that's what we're doing here. ”

Lin Fan's heart twitched fiercely, Twitter, this is a foreign Weibo, one of the ten most visited websites on the Internet in the world, and he was encountered by himself? Is this a reward for missing Facebook? Although Twitter was only more than 40 billion in assets in its heyday, it was not as good as Facebook's 400 billion, but as long as Lin Fan founded Weibo in China, when the time comes, Twitter with his left hand and Weibo with his right hand, public opinion will be in his own hands, it is not too wonderful.

But at this moment, Lin Fan showed a hint of curiosity on his face, "Microblogging, this is an interesting concept, Jack, can you talk to me?"

Jack suddenly heard what Lin Fan said before, Lin Fan came to the United States to invest in a company, so?

"I'm glad that someone is willing to listen to me share, Twitter is a social networking site, and we are committed to spreading the word in a shorter, more convenient way......"
