The second company that Roy invested in is called Twitter, and the CEO recommended by HR Vera is Masamitsu Kawaguchi, an excellent Japanese-American manager with the shrewdness and rigor of an island businessman, as well as more than 30 years of American culture.

He roughly described the two business models of blog and Weibo, confirmed the company's development focus, and then said: "Zhengguang, tell me what you think." ”

"Mr. Roy, I can understand what you mean, focusing on blogs in the early stage, focusing on Weibo in the middle and late stages, aiming at daily active users, inviting well-known people to join, continuously outputting news on blogs, activating website popularity, and increasing user stickiness. Masamitsu Kawaguchi's posture is very upright, not radical and offensive, nor flinching flattery, faithfully and concisely repeating Roy's train of thought.

With the large-scale popularity of the Internet, people have some immunity to online content, and it is difficult to have the patience to read a lot of long-form content, so at that time, meager messages within 140 words will occupy the mainstream market of users.

The core of Weibo's monopoly market is the "network effect", which is very similar to worry-free payment, as long as the order of magnitude of users goes up, most netizens are used to using it, it becomes an insurmountable moat for other similar enterprises.

Therefore, Roy will lay out the layout first and seize the minds of users. As long as he grasps the product experience and does not get too bad, he can win.

In fact, what Roy wants to do is similar to QQ, extending from chat software to games, communities, movies and television, email, shopping, search, browsers, and anti-virus software...... And so on and so forth, an Internet empire that comprehensively covers all aspects of clothing, food, housing, and transportation.

However, he thought that at this time, Microsoft was facing charges of antitrust and unfair competition from the Department of Justice, just because the sold Indos system was bound to a free Internet Explorer browser, which caused an uproar in public opinion, and its reputation was declining little by little, and the sympathy of the American people for another vulnerable Netscape browser, Gates had to come out to donate more money, participate in more public welfare activities, and mobilize the media to help Microsoft reverse negative public opinion.

Microsoft's anti-monopoly judicial accusations, if placed in the United States 50-100 years ago, the court would definitely rule that Microsoft violated the law, forced him to divide the company, and announced the core technology, but now, this kind of antitrust prosecution is nothing to Microsoft, and it can't be said to hurt the muscles and bones. (The specific reason involves the anti-monopoly law, which will be discussed later)

However, people don't decide what they like or dislike based on court decisions, and when Microsoft bundles free browsers and bullies small companies, public opinion is overwhelmingly in favor of the weak.

For example, a large company like Google will not go to a patent infringement lawsuit with a small company, even if the small company infringes on many of its patents. Because he won the lawsuit, he lost his reputation. People always have compassion for the weak.

Therefore, the more unattainable and powerful the large company, the more it will try its best to please users in order to win the trust of public opinion.

Roy, who has witnessed Tencent's growth, knows very well that a company like Tencent, which wants to do everything by itself, can't play in the United States at all, and he wants to do everyone's business alone, that is, to be the enemy of everyone.

Many students who have played Facebook, Twitter, and Amazon will feel that their pages and functions are too simple, and they are simply crushed by QQ for 10 streets. Look at our QQ, there is everything, you can play whatever you want, it's so convenient. Some people have made endless ridicule about this on various post bars and forums, and they can't understand why foreign countries are so backward and don't need to use our big China's QQ artifact.

This part of the people is right, but when Tencent does all the Internet business, that is when Tencent can dictate the world.

Therefore, the glory of the QQ empire cannot be replicated in the United States.

In order to avoid anti-monopoly and unfair competition with the Ministry of Justice in the future, which will affect the company's image, Roy tried his best to dominate the world. In the future, when conditions permit, we will make multiple layouts in the political, media, academic and other circles, and eventually tend to be infinitely close to a business empire that can do whatever it wants.

The initial venture capital of 5 million was sent away by Kawaguchi Masamitsu, Roy was a little idle again, the chess pieces had been settled in advance, and the territory of his small business empire gradually took shape, as if he could already see his domineering demeanor of covering the sky with one hand and calling for wind and rain in the future.

A soft knock on the door sounded, and a woman walked in, she saw that Roy seemed to be thinking about something else, and didn't notice her, she was slightly nervous, her heart beat faster, and she felt that her whole body and mind were sucked away by the person opposite, and after a few seconds, she straightened her waist and said softly: "Boss, this is the information you want, the address, scale, business, performance, and personnel of the new company of Cleaver are all in it." ”

"Hmm. Roy looked up, and a young white-collar beauty broke into his eyes, only to see her willow eyebrows, starry eyes, apricot face and peach cheeks, slender waist, autumn water, black suit, white shirt OL dress, fresh and refined. If Debra is a fine piece of wood and a sharp piece of ice from Alice, then this woman is a jade pendant like water, pleasing to the eye.

The girl was one of the three newly recruited intern assistants, named Su Xiaojie, and was a standard Chinese American. Although the three newcomers are the title of interns, they are not the kind of newcomers who have just graduated, they all have a certain amount of experience and experience, and they don't need to need a long time of training and adjustment like Debra, they only need to participate in the company's internal retraining occasionally.

The other two interns are both native American girls, recommended by Doyle and Vera respectively, named Tasha and Olena, who assist Roy in a lot of decisions, meetings, plans, itineraries, parties, dinners, life and other trivial matters.

Su Xiaojie was about to leave, and Roy asked again, "Hasn't Alice come back yet?"

"Oh, I'm back, I've just come back, I'll probably be coming soon. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Alice walked in.

Roy smiled, "How about Alice, look at you, it feels pretty good." ”

Alice glanced at the departing Su Xiaojie, a trace of contemptuous pride appeared in the corner of her eyes, she looked excited, her whole person was in excellent condition, and her eyes also flashed with confidence, as if she had received a hymn baptism.

The fact is similar, she represented Roy at a charity gala last night, with Roy's title of "wonder boy" in the entrepreneurial world, Alice participated as Roy's assistant, attracted the attention of the audience, almost everyone cast curious eyes for her, and she kept being accosted by people throughout the show, and the people who accosted her were just to meet Roy, or to negotiate business, or to exchange feelings, or to greet with pure kindness, and the most she did was to refuse those guests who were not very famous.

This kind of scene that requires continuous rejection of passionate accosting people is as deceptive as rejecting a fanatical suitor.

So much so that when she went home to the hotel at the end of the dinner yesterday, she barely slept all night of excitement, and for the first time in her life, she felt vanity shining like a star in the spotlight. At least for a moment, the world revolved around her.

"Hmm. Alice smiled with a rare smile, "Boss, you really should go to this kind of dinner in person, everyone is looking forward to your mysterious and legendary identity." ”

"Ha, it's good if you're happy, the point is, how much money have you donated?"
