This is definitely a good thing, and it is also from Li Yifan's selection, and after being with Li Yifan for a long time, Heidi especially believes in his vision.

Because from the beginning of knowing him to the present, there is really no loss-making business for any investment project he fancies.

Li Yifan asked her to be in the United States this time, looking for this called Jack. Dorsey's guys then set up a company to develop the website and software, and Heidi agreed almost without much thought after learning about Li Yifan's idea for this Twitter.

However, she also put forward one of her own requirements, that is, she herself also wants to invest in this network company, and for Heidi's request, how could Li Yifan refuse?

Of course, I agreed without the slightest hesitation, in fact, although the two of them have no name now, they are actually the kind of family that does not distinguish between each other, you and me.

Heidi agreed to her request, and with her ability to do things and her network in the United States, Li Yifan knew that the Twitter company that would stir up the Internet in the United States in the future would definitely belong to her.

When he thought of this, he couldn't hide his joy in his heart, and the development of this company could be said to have suffered a lot.

The idea was born two years later than Google, but it was four years earlier than its other competitor, Facebook, but its development experience is one of the most bumpy among these companies.

Google went public in 2004 and quickly became the new darling of the Internet sector, with not only two bosses becoming billionaires, but also many company employees becoming millionaires.

Facebook was launched in 2004 and went public in 2012. It has also created a miracle of listing a network company with one of them. And before Facebook went on the market. This company has been hyped again and again by the news media, in short, it has been hyped very hot, and when it was announced to be listed, it immediately led to crazy netizens and directly paralyzed the fact that the website of the US Stock Exchange was paralyzed.

Facebook, on the other hand, has created a miracle with a market price of more than 100 billion yuan after its listing, and as a website covering only 53% of the United States, it is not as good as Microsoft and Google. It's not even as good as Yahoo's website, and creating such results can't but be said to be the power of hype.

This is also the main reason why Facebook's stock price once fell rapidly after experiencing the initial frenzy of listing, and even caused panic among shareholders and investors because of the crazy decline of the stock price.

But fortunately, the operators of Facebook did not mess with themselves, and they quickly expanded overseas by changing their business model.

And by changing the concept of business model, Facebook has become the website with the largest number of uploaded pictures in the world. It was by virtue of this expansion that they gradually stabilized their position. And it has really caught up, and even surpassed Microsoft for a time to become the number one Internet company in the industry.

But Twitter, on the other hand, can be called an ugly duckling compared to the above two companies.

Its idea was born in 2000 and its founder, Jack. It took Dorsey nearly a year to refine the concept of the site.

And after the idea is perfected, Jack. Dorsey didn't develop the site, for the simple reason that he didn't have the money.

It wasn't until six years later that he gathered a few like-minded friends to develop the website and officially launch it, two years after the idea was born after him, Facebook.

At this time, Facebook, which is the same as him as the cornerstone of the social platform, has become popular in the online world at this time and has begun to be sought after by investors.

Many Wall Street investors come to visit Mark with checks. Some of Zuckerberg's doors want to be able to finance his company, while others are even throwing a lot of money and simply want to buy his company.

At this time, Twitter's network was completely sparsely populated in front of the door, with only a few hundred users after it was launched, and most of them were the company's own employees, which shows how bleak the situation was at that time.

It wasn't until August 2006, when someone retweeted the news about the San Francisco earthquake through Twitter, that people began to realize that this was not just a boring app where they could just greet each other and have breakfast and dinner.

AFTER ENTERING 2007, WITH APPLE'S LAUNCH OF THE IPHONE, AND THE BUNDLING OF TWITTER AND THIS SMART PHONE, PEOPLE BEGAN TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THIS SOFTWARE.

But there are still many people who regard this software and website as a junk software and website, and not many people start to actually use it.

It wasn't until the appearance of Ao Xiaohei, who had signs of a dark horse in the election, and the news that he announced that he had opened Twitter and actually interacted with his voters, that people began to notice the importance of this software.

And after Ao Xiaohei opened this software, another more famous figure in the United States, NBA star, the big shark O'Neal also opened this software, it is with these two celebrity effects, this software began to really be paid attention to by the majority of consumers.

It was in the same year that he received his first million-dollar investment in the software, and his company was valued at just $5 million that year.

In 2008, with the heating up of the presidential election battle and the final victory of Ao Xiaohei, this software suddenly became famous all over the world, and more celebrities chose to open their own Twitter.

And the addition of these stars from all walks of life has also brought enough followers and users to Twitter, and it was in this year that Twitter received his first financing of more than 10 million, that is, 22 million US dollars.

From then on, Twitter really went on a healthy path until they went public at the end of 2013.

It is the bumpy road that Twitter has taken that is what makes Li Yifan pay the most attention to him.

If he chooses Facebook to invest, he will be able to become a shareholder of Facebook at best, but if he chooses Twitter, then he will be the chairman of Twitter in the end!

This is why, although Twitter may not be as large as Facebook in the future, he still chooses Twitter as the key to his first entry into the American Internet industry.

As a strong person, he prefers to be in charge of a company, even if he is not involved in the day-to-day operation of the company, but it is much better to be in full control than to be an important supporting role in a company.

But on the other hand, Li Yifan is still a little unwilling.

You must know that in later generations, after several years of baptism and adjustment, Facebook is after all a large-scale Internet company that has confirmed its position as the first platform for social networks.

At this time, if you don't start, when he is really born and formed, it will be a little late, and it will inevitably make him feel like he missed it.

As a person who has come before, it is like knowing that Google will have a great future, but I have the feeling of tasting the first cup of soup, which is very bad.

He also wants to get involved in the development of Facebook, but after all, Mark has only just entered Haval and has not dropped out of school to start a website.

And the idea of Facebook, although it has always existed in his mind, he has not thought that this website will be put into practice.

What kind of investment are you talking about at this time?

Did you tell Heidi yourself, you go and send me to Haval in the United States and find someone named Mark. Zuckerberg's people, let him quickly develop a social network, and then we put money in him?

Isn't that a madman's idea? You must know that the biggest difference between Mark's Facebook and Twitter is that Mark's Facebook is that after he had an idea, he started to create it.

Twitter, on the other hand, is in Jack. Dorsey had an idea, and after basically perfecting the idea, he ran around looking for funds, but it took six years to start the launch.

Jack now. Dorsey was just refining his idea, looking for like-minded partners, and looking around for funding to start Twitter.

So at this time, I gave him a check, and after proposing some business ideas that they would figure out in later generations, I could become the major shareholder of Twitter, and finally I could become the real big boss of Twitter by increasing the publicity expenses and financing a few more times.

But for Facebook, it will never go as smoothly as this.

So about how to meddle in Facebook, he felt a headache in this matter, although he also felt that he was a little greedy and too long.

But as a capitalist, who is not like this, in the face of such huge profits and promising companies, who does not want to step in.

What's more, the funds on hand now happen to be very sufficient.

Isn't it a pity that the money is going to be invested in a project anyway, and such a good project can't be interfered with now?

As soon as he thought of this, Li Yifan was a little upset.

"Yifan, your idea is very good, I didn't expect you to have so many ideas about the Internet. If you can, I don't think you really need to go to this university, you have so many good ideas, I think you might as well go to the United States and start an Internet company. We have funds, ideas, and in the United States, as long as you have these two things, you don't have to worry about finding talent, if we start an Internet company in the United States, I believe that the future development will definitely not be worse than Google, Microsoft......"

Heidi was very confident in Li Yifan, but she didn't know that her very casual words set off a huge wave in Li Yifan's mind...... (To be continued......)
