In the days that followed, friendbook immediately became the hottest topic on the Harvard campus, and everyone loved the "online roster" that appeared. It's subtly replacing the traditional roster in the Harvard dorm room, and although it's called a friendbook, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that the people around you are using it.

Unlike the traditional roster, the photos posted here will show the most positive and endearing side of the students, and each one will be full of great style, rather than the awkward and unsettling photos taken in the first week of school.

The difference in culture between the two countries made Xia Ruxuan more clearly realize how wise he was to promote this website through Mark Zuckerberg, the two sides are also social networking sites, but the progress and popularity are completely different. By the end of the first week of the rollout, more than half of Harvard's undergraduates had registered on the site. You must know that in China, it took nearly two months to get half of the undergraduates to use this website at Sunan University.

"We're having some problems with the operation and maintenance of the website right now," Zuckerberg, who was in an excellent working condition in Kirkland's dormitory, suddenly turned to Xia Ruxuan, who was next to him with data on the viewer's computer. "It's okay for me to do it all on my own now, but in a week at most, I'll need people."

In the midst of these interactions, Xia Ruxuan has begun to gradually become familiar with this young programming genius.

He doesn't always babble as he did the first time he saw him, most of the time he was silent and silent. But if Xia Ruxuan said something very inspiring, when Zuckerberg turned on his speaking state, then don't want him to stop for a short time. Although silent, he was a man of extreme self-confidence, as he had already seen when he had opened his mouth that he was forty percent of the shares.

"Hey, man." Suddenly, a guy in the back said angrily, "I'll help you." ”

Just as Xia Ruxuan and Zuckerberg were talking, a guy behind him leaned over. During this time, Xia Ruxuan was able to match the names of the legendary people he knew before, and this was none other than Dustin Moscowitz, the future CTO of the website, who was said to have not even been able to program when he first joined the small group.

"But man, you know, you don't even know how to code." Zuckerberg looked at him helplessly, and sure enough, Xia Ruxuan secretly said in his heart.

"It's okay, I'm going to buy books and study today." Moskowitz grinned and winked at the two of them, "I just think this site is fantastic, and I want to join you." ”

Zuckerberg was stunned for a moment, looked up at Xia Ruxuan, and the intention of the inquiry was already obvious.

"It's up to you," Xia Ruxuan shrugged his shoulders and whispered in Zuckerberg's ear, "my dear friend, you are our future CEO. ”

Listening to Xia Ruxuan's words, Zuckerberg looked at him brightly, and then said to Moskowits, "I can sign an employment contract with you first, and if you perform well, I will give you five percent of my shares." ”

"Hey, it's a deal." Moskowitz laughed and ran out of Zuckerberg's room. "I'm going to buy a primer on Perl programming today."

In Xia Ruxuan's laughter, Zuckerberg added depressedly, "Man, the website is not written in Perl language. After saying that, he suddenly turned his head to face Xia Ruxuan, "I will give him five percent from my shares, so that I will be forty-four percent, and you will be fifty-one percent." ”

"Huh?" Xia Ruxuan was stunned for a moment. "I said one and a half."

"It makes no difference to me, I know your country is used to being polite, but I think very clearly, I can't accept it all for nothing. That's what you deserve based on your contribution. I like dealing with you because you're not a businessman and don't have that copper smell, but are you sure you're going to be back home soon? ”

Xia Ruxuan quickly came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Yes, maybe three or five days, maybe a week." But what is certain is that I will definitely go back. Xia Ruxuan has been here for ten days, and it stands to reason that the negotiations in Las Vegas in the summer should be able to come to an end, even if it is difficult, and he should have received the news of the summer a long time ago, and they should have started planning a trip back home.

But until today, Xia Ruxuan's mobile phone, which was temporarily set up for the convenience of contact, has not ringed. For a while, Xia Ruxuan was faintly worried about the summer in Las Vegas. He didn't know if Xia was in trouble now, but Las Vegas was not Sunan, and there was no Xia family who sheltered them, and everything was on their own.

In Gain's memory, the summer has always been good, and Xia Ruxuan has eliminated so many worries, maybe he just gave himself a short vacation by the way in the summer.

Zuckerberg was stunned for a moment, "But now is the peak of our development." ”

"Email." Xia Ruxuan shrugged his shoulders, "I don't think there will be any important decisions in half a year, you can do it well." I will come back in the future. ”

…… With sufficient financial backing in the early days, the promotion of the website was much faster than the trajectory of history. Zuckerberg's once-one-man social networking site lacked sufficient funding for the first six months, so it took a long adjustment period to find a way to add its own servers for each additional school he joined. But this time, all the obstacles were shattered by Xia Ruxuan, and all the website had to do was to attack, attack, and attack.

In the official mailbox of the website, I have also received application letters from several universities, all of which hope that the website will enter those campuses. But at this point, Xia Ruxuan was not in a hurry, the first step of the battle must be placed in the Ivy League first, only by making the founder group of the website all elitist, can this website have amazing vitality as in history.

On December 10, the website was opened to Columbia, on December 11, Stanford students could register, and a day later Yale students were allowed to enter. On December 13th, with Dartmouth College and Cornell University becoming the target of the website, all Ivy League universities were successfully included in the coverage of FriendBook. And this was the beginning of the user surge, and on this day, there were already more than 6,000 users within Harvard University.

Once again, the theme of "The Scarlet Newspaper" is directed at Mark Zuckerberg, a strange Asian teenager, and the entire boiling social networking site, FriendBook, which is undoubtedly one of its outstanding points, rather than explicitly uniting users together as romantic social circles, but rather more readable personal surnames.

On this night, Xia Ruxuan finally received a call from Xia - before that, he only left his contact information for Xia, but he didn't know how to take the initiative to find Xia, and he had even made a plan, if there was no news by December 15, then he would return to China through his own channels.

"Boy," Summer's voice said with his characteristic flirtation, "How's your trip to Boston going?" ”

"It went well." Xia Ruxuan said truthfully.

"Let's get ready to leave for Las Vegas, we fly back to Sunan on the 17th." At this moment, Xia Ruxuan seemed to feel a little relieved when she heard the summer.

"Why did it take so long?"

"It's a long story, you get back to Las Vegas and we'll talk." Summer was silent for a few seconds, and he didn't seem to know how to express it, as it seemed that he had encountered some trouble that was difficult to solve before.

"I'll book my tickets now, and I should be able to get to Las Vegas tomorrow night." Xia Ruxuan nodded. There's no need for your own monitoring to grow your own website, and with the first $200,000, everything will go a lot easier. There will be no major problems in half a year, and there are still a lot of things to pay attention to in China.

"Then say so, I'll pick you up." Summer hung up the phone succinctly.

December 14th, afternoon.

"Natsu, are you really leaving?" Walking on the campus of Harvard, Zuckerberg finally couldn't help but put on a coat, but he was still wearing the pair of Adidas flip-flops under his feet, he suddenly stopped, turned his head and looked up at Xia Ruxuan slightly.

With a height of only one meter and more than seven years, he looked a little thin in front of Xia Ruxuan, who was already one meter eight, but Xia Ruxuan could already feel that the young Zuckerberg already had his courage. Now he sometimes makes some people look sideways on campus, but it's better than a week ago that there will be no more girls who suddenly burst out to glare at him.

But more people are also beginning to wonder who the Asian who often appears next to Zuckerberg is. In this promotion of the Harvard campus, Xia Ruxuan did not give too much of his own color to the website, and he needed Zuckerberg to be able to play freely. At least for now, the results seen are good.

"Yes, I'll leave this afternoon." Xia Ruxuan stretched, and the Harvard campus looked more like a community with a beautiful environment.

"I don't think there's a reason for me to let you stay," Zuckerberg walked briskly up the stairs at the door of Kirkland's dormitory, where a young man with a violin played a melodious tune.

Xia Ruxuan remembered that the song was called contemplation, and Zuckerberg in front of him then spoke, "But it's a pleasure to work with you." ”

During this time, the Kirkland dormitory became almost their home base. Several of Zuckerberg's roommates also knew Xia Ruxuan, and in their opinion, it is definitely not ordinary people who can join forces to create a friendbook with Zuckerberg, so they have paid more and more attention to Xia Ruxuan in recent times.

"This sentence should be said by me," Xia Ruxuan smiled faintly, "I almost don't have to do anything during this time...... In fact, all Xia Ruxuan did during this time was to check how the email addresses of other Ivy League universities were set up, and the rest was to talk to Zuckerberg, more because he was listening to what Zuckerberg was saying.

Sometimes he even thinks Zuckerberg just needs an audience, which is a real genius.

"You've done enough," Zuckerberg blinked, "isn't it, how would we have dared to expand so quickly without you having the audacity to invest $200,000?" Good news for you, the Dartmouth Students' Union has also started promoting our website online, and since yesterday afternoon, a third of the 4,000 people in their college have become our users. The situation at Stanford, Yale, Columbia and other universities is not far behind. In another half month at most, we will become the social networking site that dominates the entire Ivy League. Zuckerberg's eyes shone brightly.

"Ivy ......," Xia Ruxuan smiled, "Soon, we will take control of all colleges and universities in the entire United States." ”

Zuckerberg was stunned for a moment, then stopped and looked at Xia Ruxuan standing with his hands in his hands, as if he was looking at the overlord in the distance.
