Unlike the Facebook network of later generations, Li Yifan pays more attention to this Twitter network.

The reason is the unique development experience of this Twitter network, and on the other hand, because of the development model of this website, it has also had a great development experience in China in later generations.

Different from Facebook, after the birth of Facebook, there are also many websites in China that follow the trend of plagiarism, such as Ren X.com, or open X.com, the essence of these two websites is also developed by borrowing from the development model of Facebook.com.

However, because of the education of Chinese people, the later development of personality is not obvious, and the domestic social moral habits also pay attention to seeking common ground while reserving differences, and do not pay much attention to the pursuit of individuality, so the development model of Facebook has not become popular in China.

These two websites, at the beginning of their creation, were popular for a while, but then quickly declined.

But Twitter is different, especially under the character of Chinese people who like to chase stars and blindly worship, when the domestic imitation of Twitter's model and the launch of Weibo as a carrier in China.

With the participation of Internet big V, the communication mode of Weibo soon flourished in China, and developed to the point that later, the state had to intervene in the control.

Although the state's crackdown has had a great impact on the microblog model, it does not prevent this news carrier model from continuing to flourish.

This is a network development model that can cross China and the West, so Li Yifan's attention to this network construction is even higher than that of Facebook, which was particularly popular in later generations.

Another key issue is that Facebook's history is very different from Twitter's.

You must know that after Facebook was crumbled out by that Mark, because it started from some campuses on the West Coast of the United States. What I receive is high-grade. Sought after by educated personnel.

So this site. It easily attracted the attention of the middle and upper classes of the United States, and at the same time aroused the interest of many investors.

So since the birth of this website, it has been a sweet spot in the eyes of many investors, and there have been countless companies that have planned to finance this website, and even many companies have planned to spend a lot of money to simply acquire this website.

So if you're going to hit the idea of this site, then you have to beware of competitors, especially before going public.

This company is because of the novelty of the concept. In addition, the electronic sector of the U.S. stock market, which has just experienced the madness of Google and Apple, people, especially investors, have paid a lot of attention to this new type of network concept stock.

Therefore, this company has been popular with many American investors since its birth, and it has been hyped before it was listed.

It is precisely because of the craze of many investors that it has also created the glory of this company after its listing, but hot speculation is hot speculation. This company went public, after the initial madness. It immediately fell into a situation where the stock price fell back.

There was even a crisis at one point, where many people claimed that the company's stock was overvalued, but it didn't have much real value in itself.

Therefore, Facebook also had a crisis at one time, and it was not until later, because of the support of a large number of users, that the company's status was guaranteed.

As a latecomer, the competition between Twitter and Facebook has the flavor of being the last.

Unlike Facebook, which focuses on popularization, Twitter focuses on the celebrity route, which mainly relies on the drive and publicity of celebrities, and these celebrities come from different fields.

There are entertainment movie stars or singers, political stars, sports stars, or science stars, and even many companies or government departments have their own tweets.

The effect of such a leader is far stronger than Facebook's promotion method of relying on self-promotion and focusing on personality.

In the East, which does not promote extreme individualism, Twitter's model is more appropriate.

People prefer to pay attention to their favorite celebrities, or people who are more outstanding in a certain way, rather than excessively promoting them on the Internet, or exposing themselves.

This is also the main reason why blogs based on Twitter in China in later generations are far more popular and sustainable than people X network, or X network.

And it is precisely because the concept of Twitter was born early, but it has not been very popular with investors, and even when it went public in 2006, it did not attract much attention.

In its first two years, Twitter's path to funding has been difficult.

It wasn't until a year after the website was built that they raised $1 million, and the company's total valuation was only $5 million, and it wasn't until 08 that they got their first financing of more than 10 million, and this also happened after Ao Xiaohei took Twitter as the key to his grassroots campaign, and relied on this weapon to help himself get votes among the people, and finally entered the White House.

In fact, it was Ao Xiaohei who relied on Twitter all the way and successfully moved into the White House, which created the myth of Twitter and played a vital role in the future development of Twitter.

But until then, Twitter has always been an ugly duckling that doesn't get attention.

It is precisely because no one has noticed the importance of the Twitter website before that Li Yifan pays more attention to this website.

In recent years, this smash hit website has just been born with an idea, and even his original founder, Jack, has not yet had the idea of building this website software.

And if I join in now, I can accelerate the birth of this website, and the most important thing is that Jack, the founder of Twitter, happens to be a poor ghost.

You can give him only a small part of the shares as a reward on the grounds of injecting funds into him, and you can become the big boss of this Twitter.

At that time, even if he doesn't agree, he can kick him away and find someone else to develop this website, after all, in these years, there is no way to register a patent for ideas.

What's more, now Jack, even the concept of Twitter, has not yet been fully formed.

If he is smart, his best choice is to join the company we have set up, take the salary and a small part of the incentive shares, and work for Lao Tzu, otherwise, he can completely bypass him and find someone to perfect the concept of Twitter.

And it is very different from the development of Twitter in the previous life, with the help of his own abundant funds to promote it, as well as the influence of Heidi's rich overseas connections.

In this life, the road to fame after the appearance of Twitter must be much smoother than in the previous life.

Maybe this Twitter will be born earlier than Facebook, and maybe, it will be able to rely on the model of appearing early, becoming popular early, and making profits early, and finally swallow Facebook.

At the earliest, the founder of Facebook once wanted to sell Facebook to Google for 100 million, but in the end, because of the huge disagreement between the two sides on the acquisition price, the final deal was not completed.

But in this life, if you have to participate in the Internet competition in the United States, then it will definitely be much more interesting, and maybe the United States will give birth to a completely different Internet development history from the previous life.

After Li Yifan explained to Heidi what he knew about Twitter's business philosophy and the model of this software, Heidi also felt that this idea was very worth investing in.

You must know that after the birth of the Internet, its biggest role is in the work, liberating many people from the original paper work, and greatly improving the efficiency of work.

Another very important effect is to connect people closely, originally a person wants to contact people in another corner of the world, out of the phone, write letters, there is no other way.

However, with the advent of the Internet, people can inform each other of the new things they learn every day through real-time chats on the Internet, and they can also communicate with each other through video communication.

And the concept of this kind of Twitter is to connect ordinary people with the people they care about, and it is also a real-time contact model.

For example, if you like a certain celebrity, but before there is no such software website, you can only be a silent bystander, maybe when the celebrity comes to the city where you live, you can choose to attend his concert, or live press conference or something, only then can you get in touch with the star you say you follow and worship.

But now with this kind of software, if the star you follow has opened Twitter, you can post the latest situation he encounters on his Twitter in real time, and you can always pay attention, and you can also leave a message on his Twitter to interact with him, you say that such a software, for some fans who chase stars, is it good enough?

And those celebrities after learning about such software, in order to maintain their fan base, do you think he will use it?

And this kind of software can not only allow celebrities and fans to interact with each other, it is even a star-making software.

If you, as an ordinary person, can find enough news or noteworthy material on your own body or around you, then your tweet will attract the attention of many people, including ordinary people, or those big Vs, so that you will naturally become a grassroots celebrity.

If one or two grassroots celebrities really come out, do you think other people will be willing to use this kind of software?

When she understood the effect of this tweet, Heidi agreed to Li Yifan's request almost without blinking. (To be continued......)
