"What was the harvest of this trip to the United States?"

Li Yifan asked Heidi with a smile that he and Heidi had been discussing the future development of the Internet before, and they were all about several Internet companies that were stirring up a storm in the future.

There's Google, there's Twitter, there's Facebook.

At present, Google has basically matured, has a large audience, and is a strong rising star in the Internet industry in the United States.

Microsoft and Yahoo are eyeing Google, and now Google has become a big trend, and recently I heard that their two bosses are running around to contact several big banks in the United States to talk about IPO listing.

However, things are going very secretly, and the progress is not fast, according to the historical trajectory of the original world, if nothing else, this company should not officially start their crazy IPO journey until next year.

Li Yifan and Heidi originally wanted to get involved in this company, especially Li Yifan, who was quite obsessed with the original shares of this legendary company in later generations.

So after breaking up with Heidi last time, the task given to Heidi was to contact the people of Google as much as possible after going to the United States, give them financing, and obtain their original shares.

Even if Google's people don't agree, they should try to find a way to get the company's original shares by going to the periphery.

However, Heidi's answer was that Toutou gave him a basin of cold water.

"Daling, things are not going very smoothly at Google, and it can even be said that they are not going well. Now they have entered the profit mode, and their financial situation is very good. There is no need for external financing. And currently the two founders of the company. The potential of the company has also been realized. It is easy not to agree to external financing. In addition, the way you mentioned to get the original shares of their company from the outside method, I tried it, but it didn't work. First of all, the shares they give to the ordinary employees of the company are not large, and they are all dry shares, and once they leave the company, they must leave the shares. And some employees are also aware of the potential of the company's future development, so not many people are willing to sell their original shares. Even if some people are in a hurry to use the money to buy it, it is a mosquito leg and it costs a lot of money to get it. It's not interesting...... And several other investors in Google are also wary of our presence and have shown considerable hostility, so I think it's better to forget it. ”

Heidi's words didn't surprise Li Yifan too much, after all, they are not the only ones staring at Google, if Google is really so easy to deal with, then it is not Google.

And Google is not without people behind it now, Sequoia Capital, which gave them the first financing, is not easy to deal with. Those Jews are not something to be easily offended in the United States right now.

Offend one. It means offending the entire group behind them, and now he can only say that he is getting full-fledged, but it is not yet time to wrestle with the Jewish consortium, so why should he endure it.

"Well, I didn't get it, so forget it. Anyway, there is no hurry, their listing is not so fast to complete, even if we can't get the original shares, we can eat as many of their shares as possible in the secondary market. ”

Li Yifan also knew that what he thought before was too simple, since he couldn't get Google now, forget it, he still had Twitter and Facebook.

These two network companies, as long as the time is ripe, are not worth hundreds of billions of enterprises.

"The other two Internet companies, I did as you told me. That Jack. Dorsey has found it, he is very happy with the news that we have invested in him, I only spent 500,000 yuan, I got 51% of the shares, if he needs financing in the future, he will also contact us, and then we can get more by expanding the means of financing. ”

Speaking of Twitter, Heidi was interested, after all, according to Li Yifan's description to her, this Twitter network is a very promising network software.

Just that Jack. Dorsey can do it, so even if it takes three or five years, as long as this software is accepted by everyone, then this company, maybe there will be a Google.

You must know that the Americans' ability to accept this kind of innovative software is quite fast, especially since this thing has been hitched a ride on Apple's side by the future.

Even if the impact of Twitter is not large, but you should not underestimate Apple, the glory of Twitter in later generations, it can be said that at least more than half of the credit of Apple's mobile phone.

After Steve Jobs became a god, Apple's influence in the electronics industry was absolutely unparalleled.

"I gave him 500,000 yuan, found him an office location, and helped him recruit a team, not big, only a dozen people, but enough for him. The young man was very confident, and he told me that within two years, I would see results. After the results are obtained, it is time to promote it, and it is time for us to expand our stake in this company again! ”

Heidi's vision is very accurate, and after several years of training, she has already gotten rid of the image of the motorcycle girl back then, and a strong woman in the new century is gradually taking shape.

Li Yifan patted her arm with satisfaction: "By the way, how is our Facebook team?" ”

"Everything went well, and you know, in Silicon Valley, there is a lot of talent in networking, and although the price is not cheap, it is not a problem for us at all. A comfortable working environment, a good salary, and a creative idea are enough for these young people to help you with your efforts. Now Silicon Valley is full of too many young people who want to get rich overnight like Larry Page, and everyone is very interested in new ideas. I sent someone to form a technical team, and after telling them your idea, everyone thought the idea was very interesting, and they were already working on the website......"

From Heidi's point of view, she is actually more optimistic about the future of this Facebook network, even more optimistic than Twitter.

She was born in the Western world, but she knows the human relationship in the Western world, after completing her studies and entering the society, once you choose a certain direction, then you will live in that small circle, and it is quite difficult to make friends outside the circle.

So many Westerners are actually very eager to get extra attention and be able to make different friends through different circles.

A social network like Facebook will be a big push for the entire online world, and once this website is successfully built, it will definitely lead the online world to set off a new revolution@life.

And of course Li Yifan knows the power of this thing, in fact, the purpose of this Facebook construction place is to use @cannon for those young men and women who have excessive hormone secretion in college.

What social network, in fact, is synonymous with beautifying it, Western men and women, there are many meat eaters, and there are many hormones in the body, so there is a lot of demand for a certain aspect, plus the concept is open, and not everyone has enough money in their pockets, go clubbing every day, soak horses.

Before Apple and Twitter were not mature, in a world without little penguins, the poor dicks in the West needed a weapon similar to Momo in later generations, or prestige.

And Zuckerberg's Facebook network appeared at this time.

Actually, this thing is another variant of personal web logs, the tree structure, where you can search for the person you want to follow, and then look at the traces they left on the Internet, such as diaries, or photos.

Then look at the photo to decide if you want to date him @gun, and then it is a sassy nature to show your talent on the Internet, attract the attention of the other party, and then hook up with each other......

After this initial stage, many people will find out that this is a very good online platform to show themselves, so at this time, the new term social network appeared......

"Well, when will it come to fruition?"

"It's going to take some time, I guess it's going to take a year or two. After all, there's a lot of data to sort out, and there's also advertising. ”

Heidi said that she is so confident in the site that she has even organized a marketing team to figure out how to promote the site in the future.

Li Yifan nodded, fortunately, this time Heidi's trip to the United States, except for not being able to get Google's original shares, the other two things were done beautifully, which was enough to make him happy.

Twitter and Facebook are not in a hurry to grow right now, and they need to be given enough time when the time comes...... At that time, I only had to hide behind the scenes and count the money.

"By the way, you asked me to come back some time ago, is there anything wrong?"

Heidi remembered the text message Li Yifan sent to herself a few days ago, during that time, she happened to be in the United States and couldn't get out, so she told him to wait for two days.

"Well, there is such a thing, you know a lot of people in the United States, and you have a wide range of connections, is it possible to help me get some technology."

Heidi started from his arms violently, her lover, she couldn't be clearer, she was a bold person, and any laws and the like were no longer in his eyes.

In other words, this guy is a lawless person, and morality and law are things he despises.

Now he actually uses his brains on the head of the Americans, listening to the meaning, he wants to steal some technology from the United States, and he can find himself, which means that these technologies must be quite sensitive.

"What technology can interest you so much?"

Heidi is also interested, in fact, she likes Li Yifan very much, that is, when she is with this guy, he always has some amazing ideas.

And what she likes more is the feeling of breaking the law with him and breaking through the shackles of the world. (To be continued......)
