Chapter 61: The Rise of an Empire
"What are you peeking at me for?"
At this time, Jiang Hai noticed Jiang Chen's gaze, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Jiang Chen stared at Jiang Hai and said, "Brother, don't you like your Chinese teacher?" ”
"Nope."
"Then why do you always write some bad things about Teacher Liu in the Chinese papers?"
"You don't understand." Jiang Hai pursed his lips, and when he talked about it, he was suddenly very excited, "Okay, let me tell you, the first time I wrote Teacher Liu in the test paper, the teacher read my test paper, and the whole class laughed, I felt very funny, and Bi Han also liked the composition I read, praising me for being talented......"
Jiang Chen was extremely speechless when he heard it, it turned out that Bi Han liked to watch it.
He discovered a fallacious reasoning, God created a creature like a woman, that is, to subdue men.
……
……
The days are getting dull and dull.
During this period, the TV station Lin Xiao came to the house several times, in order to sign Jiang Chen, it can be said that he looked at the thatched house three times.
However, this is destined to be a failure.
Not to mention Lin Xiao, other TV stations invited Jiang Chen to participate in the show, and advertising companies asked Jiang Chen to shoot commercials, but Chi Haidong refused them one by one.
Father Jiang Yuan has been home for a significantly smaller number of days recently.
Sometimes, when Jiang Yuan comes back, he is also entangled in affairs, his mobile phone rings non-stop, and the time for making calls in the study occupies most of the time, he is extremely busy, and he has no heart to take care of things at home.
Jiang Chen was very envious that his father had a mobile phone, but it was useless for him to ask for a mobile phone. At this time, the function of the mobile phone is very simple, generally a single-frequency machine, and my father used this is the world's first commercial dual-frequency mobile phone, which has a lot of style.
One day a guest came to the house.
In the living room where peonies are placed, a coffee table is placed to receive guests.
The TV was not turned on, and my father sat on the sofa and chatted with the guests. Jiang Chen didn't know this guest, but looking at the guest's dress and tone, he also knew that this guest was not simple.
Through the conversation between the two, Jiang Chen soon knew the identity of the person who came, it was Zheng Jianzhong, the president of Tongmao International Business Company.
This was the first time Jiang Chen had eavesdropped on his father's business.
Zheng Jianzhong is the founder of Tongmao International Business Company. What the company does is to buy goods from overseas and sell them to Chinese people, or buy goods from China and sell them to international merchants without reprocessing them to earn the difference in price.
As soon as the company was listed, it raised 30 million yuan, and his father was one of the founders, who used to be the technical officer of Tongmao International Business Company, responsible for the construction of the online trading platform, and became one of the shareholders of Tongmao International Business Company, occupying one percent of the shares.
In recent years, most of the shares of Tongmao International Business have flowed into public ownership, and technical officers have gradually become public positions, so my father decided to resign and start a new business, targeting the Internet industry, and selling programs and integrated systems abroad.
Jiang Yuan majored in computer science in college and was obsessed with the Internet, so he ran away with his team and went to the sea to start his own business, using the money he earned over the years to establish a new company.
Of course, Zheng Jianzhong and Jiang Yuan are still very good friends.
Zheng Jianzhong asked Jiang Yuan: "You kid, do you really want to sell the shares of Tongmao?" I really don't know what you think, it is necessary to set up a new company? ”
"You know my temper, once I make a decision, ten cows can't pull it back." Jiang Yuan smiled, pointed to his head, and said, "My mind is on the computer network, and trade is not attractive to me, so it is better to sell the shares." How, I will sell you this part of my trade shares for five million. ”
"You're going to throw money into the network? The Internet is a bubble, the more money you throw into the Internet, the more you lose, and there are few Internet companies that can make a profit. Zheng Jianzhong shook his head and said, "However, since you want to sell the shares, of course I am willing to buy them." ”
"President Zheng is happy."
Zheng Jianzhong asked curiously: "What projects is your company going to work on recently?" So short of money? ”
"A new search engine called Google."
"I don't want to hit you, but there are too many search engines, how many can make a profit?"
Jiang Yuan said with a smile: "The search engine we do is different, there is a web rating mechanism, a new search engine, solid and reliable, and has applied for a patent." My confidence is very full, I will give you a chance to make a fortune, you also come to join, you invest 1 million, you can harvest 10 million in the future, and you will make a steady profit. ”
"I don't know what Jiang Yuan thinks about you, what you say is good, so I won't be fooled by you."
Zheng Jianzhong scolded with a smile, had no intention of buying shares, and left soon.
On the side, Jiang Chen was a little stunned when he listened.
Google?
The company that my father founded was Google?
There are many companies that make Internet search engines, but Google is the most successful case in that time and space. The end of the dot-com bubble marked the end of Google's IPO.
Founded in September 1998, Google has since surpassed old search engines such as Yahoo and has become the world's largest search engine with an annual turnover of $68.9 billion.
In this time and space, Huaxia has a strong scientific and technological strength, although the computer is developed by the United States, but Huaxia has made great contributions to the construction of the World Wide Web, and the search engine is the most done by Huaxia.
His father did Google?
Exactly the same name?
Jiang Chen was a little confused, he had already discovered that many people and things in these two planes and planes were the same, but their respective developments were completely different. My father's career is different, and Google does not appear in the United States, but in our country, so in other words, the Google that my father made will definitely not reach the level of that time and space.
But at this moment, Jiang Chen suddenly had a strange feeling.
Google?
Is this to help his father build Google's empire?
Jiang Chen couldn't calm down, and began to eavesdrop on his father's phone in the study, eager to know about his father's situation.
For an afternoon, Jiang Chen had been eavesdropping on his father's phone calls, and gradually learned about his father, whose father Google was still in the beginning of development, and had only established a database center.
"Believe me, Mr. Yan, as long as you are an expert who is familiar with the Internet, you all agree that Google is superior to other search engines. You invest 1 million now and earn 10 million in the future, absolutely yes. ”
"You hesitate because you don't trust me...... Why not? ”
In the study, Jiang Yuan talked to people on the phone, always smiling, showing invincible confidence.
But when he put down the phone, his brow furrowed, and he couldn't raise enough money to mobilize all his connections.
Due to the dot-com bubble, wealthy businessmen are now afraid to invest in Internet companies easily, and the company's economic turnover is very difficult, and the situation can only be reversed unless it goes public. However, the total share capital of the company's scale is insufficient, and it cannot meet the requirements for listing for the time being.
Now my father lacks money the most!
Although his father was short of money, his father still didn't think about making money from Jiang Chen's identity as a child star.
Jiang Chen was a little moved, and also realized that although the time and space are different, this era is still the era of the most rapid development of the Internet. Jiang Chen didn't learn computers, and of course he didn't know how to build an Internet company, but his father seemed to want to show his skills on the Internet.
When it comes to the most successful companies on the Internet, we have to mention Alibaba, founded in 1999, is a business-to-business online trade marketplace platform and the second largest online company in the world. At the beginning, when Ma Yun founded Alibaba, there was no financing from investment institutions such as Chaoyin, and it was likely to go bankrupt.
Now, my father is doing Google and is short of money?
The corners of Jiang Chen's mouth outlined a smile, as if it was not very difficult for him to make money......
In the era of the Internet bubble, many people are most worried that the Internet will run out of investors' money, and they dare not throw money into the fire, for fear that they will not make any profits. Many online companies are unable to make a profit and have closed down.
However, Jiang Chen knows that the intangible value of the Internet has a strong attraction to people. Now Internet service companies are unable to make money because the public has no awareness of paying for the Internet.
The advertising monetization model pioneered by Google has always been the main way to make money on the Internet. Therefore, Google's listing ended the era of the Internet bubble.
That's right, it's an advertising monetization model!
Although the father of this time and space founded Google, it only has a mechanism for page rating, but it seems that the profit model is not taken into account.
Jiang Chen smiled, stretched out his hand to open the door of the study, and walked into his father's study.
ps: It turns out that the search engine founded by Jiang Yuan is not Google, so in order to make it easier to understand in the future, it was directly changed to Google.
