Fan Kang is in the Fan family, basically playing the role of a rich idler, compared with the gentleman, the difference is that he is more dedicated, and at this time he still only loves Xiao Qiang.

In fact, as the eldest son who integrates the excellent genetic lineage of the Fan family, Fan Kang's overall quality is not bad at all, but he does not have as much advanced experience as Fan Wuxian in his brain.

It's just that he doesn't have any competitive pressure, so he usually always revolves around Xiao Qiang, and he doesn't find a stage suitable for his own development. But this time, Fan Wuxian introduced him to the vigorous Internet industry, which finally aroused the interest of the eldest son of the Fan family, and he became more and more interested in acquiring shares in major websites.

After the family reunion, she was naturally very happy, Fan Ting and her family came back early, and for a while, Fan Ting handed over most of the company's affairs to Wang Xuyun to take care of, and it was also well organized, so she was also very worry-free, as for Han Zhu, she rarely participated in the programming in person at this time, but just controlled the general direction, and naturally had a lot of time to entertain.

Looking at Fan Kang, who had just rushed back, Fan Wuxian said with a smile, "In the first ten years, it was the elder sister who was struggling for the family's wealth, and in the next ten years, it was the turn of the elder brother to contribute." ”

Ten years has been the time of the Internet industry. In the ten years when the industry was booming, Jackie Chan was still an adult, and it was clear in these ten years, so Fan Wuxian was very happy to see that the old brother had found an industry that could achieve his life goals, at least he didn't have to be that rich idler anymore, but had his own usefulness.

Zhang Mei said, "Speaking of which, you are still old. Dad is hard, but the Standing Committee doesn't have his own personal freedom, and everything in the world has to be contributed. ”

At present, Fan Heng is only replacing Xiang Gangyu. The position of vice premier is only the remaining three years of term, but in this way, Fan Heng's current age is still relatively young among the members and members of the Standing Committee, and he will not be 60 years old in three years, for a Standing Committee member with three years of experience, it is obviously very possible to continue to be elected and succeeded, so it is no wonder that Zhang Mei has such worries.

Although it is said that the position is high and powerful, the price paid is also obvious. Whether it is time or health, the two most important things for an individual, basically have to be dedicated.

Fan Wuxian understood his mother Zhang Mei's worries, so he smiled and comforted, "Mom. You don't have to worry so much, as the so-called people live a lifetime, grass and trees in autumn, in just a few decades, you always have to try your best to experience all kinds of life in order to live in vain, as for health problems, don't we still have me as a miracle doctor? ”

"I think you're more like a god stick, with a mouth more than a crow. Effective. Fan Kang said to his brother with a haha.

Fan Kang said so too. It was because Fan Wuxi's estimate of the current situation was too accurate, and he asked him to acquire the shares of those Internet companies, which also provided a lot of opinions and strategies, so that Fan Kang was fully prepared and invincible, and made considerable gains.

When talking about this, Fan Wuxian had to ask a few more questions, "By the way, brother, how is your acquisition going?" How's the major websites doing? ”

"It feels very lively, although everyone is busy in the dark, but I think that for the time being, the major websites have not found their own positioning." After Fan Kang thought about it for a while, he expressed his feelings very clearly.

In mid-January, the China Business Times announced the top 10 commercial websites in China at that time, namely Sina, 163 E-mail, Sohu, NetEase, Guozhong.com, People's Daily, Shanghai Hotline, ChinaByte, Capital Online and Yahoo China. As can be seen from the types of websites selected, they are all news and information portals, almost none of which have a profit model, and the criteria of the selection bodies are ridiculous, they openly claim that traffic is the most important thing, followed by content, and then aesthetics. As for making a profit, it seems like it's a very distant thing.

As for why the Huafeng network, which has a high demand and a large number of visits, is not included, it is because they believe that the scale of Huafeng is no longer suitable for comparison with other websites, and there is obviously no comparison between such websites of different levels.

After all, at this time, Huafeng.com can already rely on advertising revenue to achieve self-sufficiency, and there is no need to continue to invest money in it.

In this way, Sina.com, which ranks first, certainly attracts the most attention.

At this time, the rapid response of the Internet in news reports has been beyond the reach of traditional media, Fan Kang said to his family, "Sina.com's news editors are in a state of first-level combat readiness at all times, and 24-hour duty has become a fixed system, which has an absolute advantage in the timeliness of breaking news." For some sensitive news, Sina can release it half an hour after the incident. This is simply an impossible task for newspapers or television media. ”

"That's pretty impressive!" Several people in the family were not ordinary people, and immediately said.

Fan Wuxian said a little disappreciatively, "What is this? In fact, within Huafeng.com, it is already possible to go online for some breaking news within ten minutes. ”

"How is this possible?!" Fan Kang suddenly said with a stump.

"What's impossible?" Fan Wuxian shook his head and said, "The main thing is to reward individuals who provide news clues in a more timely and accurate manner, which is the prerequisite for ensuring that you can get first-hand information first. ”

"You have a lot of moneyβ€”" Fan Kang nodded, believing that what Fan Wuxian said was true, but he remembered what he had seen and heard recently, and couldn't help but smile and talk to everyone about some interesting things about Internet companies.

As the founders of Sina, their most urgent desire at that time was to seek a listing, and in addition to being acquired by Fan Kang in exchange for current development funds, they also selected Morgan Stanley, a well-known multinational investment group, as a partner.

In fact, at this time and age, even big investment banks like Morgan Stanley know very little about the Internet, let alone Chinese Internet companies, and the only thing they know is that it must be a lucrative business.

"I met a female employee at Morgan Stanley, and she later told me that before I came into contact with Sina, many of the company's top executives knew little about these new things, and very few had browsed Sina's website. However, in order to show that the company is extremely proficient in high-tech and the Internet, the leaders deliberately found the person in charge of the project ten minutes before the meeting, and made up for it. Not only did they memorize jargon like click-through rate and ICP, but they also figured out that Sina wasn't a toy company. During the negotiation, when the Sina team mentioned that the future strategic direction is to build a portal, a senior executive of Morgan Stanley lowered his head, covered his mouth, and quietly asked the project leader sitting next to him, I have always thought that Sina is an Internet company, why do they want to build a gate? ”

After hearing this, Fan Wuxian couldn't help laughing, in fact, among these people, that is, he is more familiar with the definition of portals, and the family really doesn't know much about it, Fan Heng, as one of the earliest members of the Politburo to go online, has also asked his son for advice on this, so he has a general understanding of the situation.

Although it didn't understand the difference between a portal and a door, Morgan Stanley's enthusiasm for Sina grew day by day. In order to improve Sina's popularity in the U.S. capital market, Morgan Stanley also specially invited Mary Mick, the most legendary technology stock analyst on Wall Street and known as a female magician, to visit Sina.

It can be seen that this kind of trendy thing is indeed not something that everyone can understand, at least not now.

But in any case, there are two growth directions for China's Internet industry this year. One is the hot portal represented by Sina, NetEase and Sohu, whose potential value has been significantly amplified. Then there is the e-commerce community, whose efforts seem very unusual and ridiculous to many, but Fan is well aware that they will become another mainstream in six or seven years.

Of course, there are also some market makers who want to make money in the stock market with the concept of online bookstores and e-commerce, and these people are not a few.

"As for me-" Fan Kang looked at Xiao Qiang beside him, and then said to everyone, "I suddenly feel that I seem to be very suitable for the venture capital industry. ”

After Fan Wuxian and others listened to Fan Kang's words, they were suddenly scorched by thunder, and after a long time, Fan Wuxian said, "Brother, your mode of thinking is probably the mentality of the nouveau riche!" ”

Although Fan Wuxian thinks that Fan Kang is a nouveau riche mentality, he also knows very well that in China now, venture capital, especially venture capitalists like Fan Kang with loose conditions and great investment intensity, are definitely idols worshiped by everyone.

Angel investors are the kind of people they are! It doesn't seem to be a bad thing to make a career out of it.

However, Fan Wuxian attacked Fan Kang very viciously, and he said to Xiao Qiang, "Sister-in-law, you have to take a good look at my brother in the future, without you by your side, don't let him go to meet female customers alone, those little vixens are very good at seducing people, especially those angel investors!" ”

There are no pop-ups
