In this life, in the history of FriendBook, because of Xia Ruxuan's involvement, Eduardo Saverin, who was originally in charge of the website's funding part in the early days, but later fell out with Zuckerberg because of management problems, and then sued Zuckerberg and his website, did not appear in the team of the new Friendbook.

But the history of FriendBook still has a striking resemblance to the former Facebook, for example, Sean Parker, the biggest contributor to Facebook's foreign business department, is still found by chance.

The reason why Xia Ruxuan decided to go to the United States again was because he wanted to meet Sean Parker in person so that he could have a proper assessment of him; The second is because he doesn't want to be in the awkward position of Eduardo Saverin, who used to contribute too little to the site and gradually lose his status - both Zuckerberg and Sean Parker are ambitious men.

Xia Ruxuan didn't dare to let them develop wantonly, he had to control these two fierce beasts that might stand up at any time. Now Friendbook's journey in the U.S. is going very well, and at the beginning of the spring semester of 2004, work has become even busier, and now the entire network has been opened to 34 schools, with more than 60,000 registered users, and is expanding like a sweep, and the company's previous $200,000 is now being swallowed up by servers at a visible rate.

Sitting in this restaurant, Xia Ruxuan listened quietly to Zuckerberg and Sean Parker talking about the future of the site.

Despite having no formal education and a lack of attention to business models, the man named Sean Parker still has an extraordinary business acumen, and if the words business and artist can be mentioned at the same time, there is no doubt that Sean Parker is such a business artist, he is an "aesthete with a rational surname".

The surname is erratic, as if he will fly around like Peter Pan in a fairy tale, presumably because he was once fired from his own company. These are all the news about him that Xia Ruxuan once knew through the information.

And at this moment, the impression of Sean Parker is gradually becoming clearer, he likes to talk, speaks quickly, has a warm attitude, and his ideas are innovative enough. These are the similarities with Zuckerberg. The only difference is that Zuckerberg wants to talk about topics that interest him, while Sean Parker can even talk to Xia Ruxuan about Chinese culture.

Xia Ruxuan lowered his head and took a sip of tea, the taste of tea is naturally difficult to compare with the real top tea in China, but being able to drink tea in the United States is also a warm thing, listening to Zuckerberg and Sean Parker's whimsical ideas.

Xia Ruxuan knew that he should have made a decision, after all, he didn't have much time to stay here.

"Mr. Sean Parker," Xia Ruxuan cleared his throat and waited until both of them turned their heads to look at him before continuing, "I won't have much time to stay in the United States in the short term, but I want you to become the president of the company and build this company for us." He can't see Sean Parker's abilities at a glance now, but he believes that this person has enough room to grow, and they are still young, but will it be difficult for these young people who were once able to create Facebook myths to re-enter history and create a new myth under his guidance?

Xia Ruxuan looked at Zuckerberg and Sean Parker with everyone's unpredictable smile on his face. He didn't want to beat around the bush, and as he said, he didn't have much time to stay here. He saw a hint of surprise flashing in Zuckerberg's eyes, and he knew that Zuckerberg had already had enough contacts and contacts with Sean Parker before he came to the United States, and they also had a lot of sympathy for each other.

There is an old Chinese saying that Maxima is often present but Bole is not. Xia Ruxuan laughed at himself and thought that he was not a Maxima at the moment, so it would be better for the surname Suo to be a Bole. At this moment, it is officially a low point in Sean Parker's life, although he is wearing a luxurious coat and driving a BMW car, he is still confused.

When they heard Xia Ruxuan's words, both of them were stunned, and the joy on Zuckerberg's face became more and more intense, and he must have felt that such a helper would help the company's development.

Then Sean Parker looked up at Xia Ruxuan blankly, and he didn't know what was going on in his mind at that moment, but Xia Ruxuan saw that the color in his eyes quickly became stronger, and his fluttering expression gradually stabilized and brightened, "Okay!" ”

Geeks always get along with some extremely ridiculous but reasonable feelings, originally outsiders thought that it would take repeated contact, or even a long time later, to settle the matter, at this time by Xia Ruxuan directly decided the case.

Regardless of whether the current team of this friendbook follows the footprints of history or because of Xia Ruxuan's deliberate actions, at this moment he has finally established an ideal team, the roommate who was brought in by Zuckerberger, and Moskowitz, who will become the chief technology officer in the future, has the characteristics of hard work, down-to-earth, versatile and pragmatic that every startup needs, and is responsible for the regular maintenance of the website; Sean Parker is experienced and familiar with the ways and means of the company's operation and how to get information about Silicon Valley; Mark Zuckerberg is the most indispensable figure in this company, a young and gifted geek.

As for Xia Ruxuan himself, he positioned himself as a helmsman standing on the shoulders of giants to guide the way forward, and it was definitely not a simple matter to control those talented and ambitious guys, this was his headache.

But in any case, Friendbook's ship has started at full speed forward, and it is heading for the dazzling front.

The limited liability company that Mougins had set up was not a formal structure in the full sense of the word, and it lacked management documents defining how the company operated, and there was no contract, regular employees, payroll, and a series of documents, so it was just a leather bag company.

The following March, Xia Ruxuan, who had returned to southern Jiangsu to begin his second semester of college career, received a message from the United States that Parker and his lawyer were preparing to build a new legal structure, and they had filed an application to form a friendbook company in Delaware -- including almost all new companies in Silicon Valley, and most American companies formed in Delaware because the legislation there was conducive to business development. This restructuring means that the company's most important asset, Friendbook, has been defined as owned by the company, and is no longer a personal project of Xia Ruxuan and Zuckerberg.

This reorganization of the company did not change Xia Ruxuan's right to rule the company, probably because of Xia Ruxuan's appreciation, Zuckerberg mentioned that according to the new company's articles of association, Xia Ruxuan owned 51% of the company's shares and became the company's sole director. Zuckerberg owns 36 percent of the shares, he gets 7 percent given Moskowitz's increased contribution to the company, and the last new member, Sean Parker, owns 6 percent of the company.

By the end of the month, the site had more than 100,000 registered users, and with plenty of money at the time, Zuckerberg and Parker continued to plan to roll out FriendBook to 70 more schools in April.

In the letter, Zuckerberg said that he was facing the biggest decision of his life, and that his grades at Harvard had plummeted, and that he had begun to hesitate to give up his Harvard diploma and serve the company wholeheartedly.

For this point, although Zuckerberg resolutely withdrew from his studies in history, Xia Ruxuan felt that he should not be such an instigator, so he seriously helped Zuckerberg analyze the pros and cons and gave him a long reply. As for what Zuckerberg will choose in the end, it is up to him.

Just when the friendbook on the American side was rising step by step, the domestic part did not fall behind. In Xia Ruxuan, according to the memory of being ahead of the world for many years, he plagiarized a very creative advertising clip from the memory of his mind, and let Yin Xia and Lin Wei perform it according to the previous agreement, and then put it on the homepage of the friend network as a live advertisement.

Yin Xia naturally became the campus spokesperson of the friend network, and Lin Wei ...... It was purely Xia Ruxuan who was looking for him to talk nonsense, but it also made him famous on the Internet.

As well as renting conspicuous image advertising space on several domestic portals, spending a large enough price to carry out an advertising bombardment.

The content of the short film is roughly a pair of childhood sweethearts who gradually lost contact, and they are thinking about each other.

Then after they entered the university, they found each other through the friend network by chance, and the last shot was the two hugging each other tightly, and then the huge logo of the friend network was lit up.

In this era when most advertisements still use noise bombing tactics, such an advertisement in the form of a micro-film with a plot and youthful color that is very popular in later generations can easily attract the attention of young people.

Xia Ruxuan did not come forward during the filming, and Yin Xia probably thought that Lin Wei was chosen because of his sunny and handsome appearance, but Lin Wei later shamelessly said that he entered the play when he hugged at the end, and Xia Ruxuan rolled his eyes for a while.

The sensational advertising slogan is read from the voice-over, which makes people feel quite affectionate - there must be a friend who has accompanied you through growth, faced trials with you, and accompanied you through the youth era. Please believe that friendship can last forever, and the network of friends is always celebrating the moment of reunion with you.

There is no doubt that everyone must have a friend who has gradually faded from contact.

A large amount of advertising money was not in vain, and after seeing the saturation of the market in southern Jiangsu, the website began to blossom in various points across the country. IP from all over the place began to appear in the background records, and the network of pale and weak regional relationships gradually thickened.

At the same time, there are more and more investors who have contacted Mougins, and among these investors are many companies that want to take Friends.com as their own, for example, among the people Mougins mentioned to contact him is Chen Yizhou of Thousand Oaks, who is now talking to Maopu.com about a share swap.

I have to say that his vision is unique, and in the previous life, Thousand Oaks relied on the catpounce and the two websites in the school to rise rapidly...... But in this life, with a friend network, I am afraid that there will be no such opportunity in school.

Time clapped his hands and walked away in the gap between raising and bowing his head like this.
