Chapter 507 - Facebook Project (1/5)
In Los Angeles, an office building next to Hoop Sports, Seawater Investment has moved back one after another.
Qiao Hai was in charge: "The innermost is the director's office, move this computer into it......"
"This is the conference room, assemble the big round table!"
“……”
The director's office was cleaned first, and here, Qiao Zhishui first reported to Qiao Hai on the cash-out work in the recent period.
"All 70,000 shares of Amazon have been sold, $2 million was bought, and after the sell-off, we got $20 million, and the investment has directly multiplied tenfold."
Amazon's investment netted $18 million, which can be said to be a big profit.
Qiao Hai nodded and said directly: "This money will be put on the company's account first, I found a person through the headhunting company, and he will come to the company later, let's meet together, and the money will be used on that person." ”
Qiao Zhishui nodded, although he didn't know what Qiao Hai was going to do, but most of the money of the seawater company was Qiao Hai's, and he wouldn't interfere with anything, in this regard, Qiao Zhishui was more like Qiao Hai's property consultant.
Qiao Zhishui continued to report to Qiao Hai on the progress of cashing out: "Alibaba's shares are gradually cashing out, and it is expected to be able to cash out $120 million in ......."
Qiao Hai nodded: "As soon as the money arrives, it will be directly injected into Google." ”
Cashing out Alibaba's shares, compared to later generations, will definitely lose a lot, but there is no way, Qiao Hai needs money to implement his future plan, if successful, he will earn more than Alibaba's tiny shares.
……
The conference room was also quickly cleaned up, and Qiao Hai and the others arrived, and they met in the conference room.
There were two of them, one looked young and seemed to be still in school, and the other was already middle-aged with a full beard.
"Hello, I'm Qiao Hai, and this is Mr. Qiao Zhishui, the director of Seawater Investment."
The older one stood up first: "Mr. Qiao, Mr. Qiao, hello, my name is Rolf Pagano, and I used to work for Google. ”
The young one then also stood up and drew a scoop on the gourd: "Mr. Qiao, Mr. Qiao, hello, my name is Mark Zuckerberg, and I am currently a sophomore at Harvard University, majoring in computer science and psychology. ”
Qiao Zhishui glanced at Qiao Hai with some confusion, meaning: "Why is there still a college student?" ”
Qiao Hai shook his head and didn't explain.
He took out two documents and handed them to the two interviewers in front of him: "Mr. Pagano, and Mr. Zuckerberg, I came to you to develop and build a website. ”
"The software is tentatively called Facebook, and its main purpose is to provide a platform for Internet users in North America to communicate online, with the help of this platform, Internet users can post their own news, post their own photos, and chat with their friends......
"Specifically, you can look at the document in your hand......"
Qiao Hai specifically introduced the project he said he was preserving, in fact, Mark Zuckerberg, who was sitting in front of him, was the real founder of Facebook in his previous life, but in this life, Qiao Hai is going to say sorry.
In fact, there is nothing to be embarrassed about, even Mark Zuckerberg has been sued by his university alumni in court, accusing him of stealing the idea of Facebook, and no one knows who the idea of Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook came from, except Zuckerberg himself.
After talking about the creativity, Qiao Hai gave the two people in front of him specific treatment.
Rolf Pagano will be Facebook's CEO and will be responsible for building the company, while Mark Zuckerberg will be the technical director and will be responsible for building the website.
Both signed a work contract and an agreement was quickly reached.
……
After Rolf Pagano and Mark Zuckerberg left, Qiao Hai asked Qiao Zhishui to contact Google, and when the website was launched, he also needed to use Google's search engine to promote his Facebook site.
This is also the reason why Qiao Hai is not afraid of Mark Zuckerberg stealing ideas.
Because Mark Zuckerberg does not have an anti-natural promotion channel like Qiao Hai, Qiao Hai's Facebook is the first to seize the market, and even if Mark Zuckerberg wants to create a new Facebook by himself, he will definitely not be able to reverse the situation.
……
……
After half a month of dealing with affairs in Los Angeles, Qiao Hai returned to Houston, at this time, the time has also passed by mid-September, and the Rockets' preseason training camp is about to begin.
Before the pre-season training camp began, Qiao Hai also received a call from Aoshen's side.
Aoshen coach David Blatter's contract is about to expire in one year, and general manager Zheng Ming asked Qiao Hai for his opinion on whether to renew David Blatter's contract.
Qiao Hai's answer is, of course, no, David Blatter and his coaching staff will take away more than 4 million RMB a year, which is equivalent to 500,000 US dollars.
This money, Qiao Hai can naturally save it, for the Aoshen team, the role of foreign teachers is not so big.
However, David Blatter's contract expires, and Ao Shen needs a new coach, which is a very important issue.
Qiao Hai's solution was - "Lao Zheng, you find three local coaches with strong understanding and learning ability, and I will give them a chance to study with me for a year, and the best one will return to China as the head coach, and the others will be assistant coaches." ”
So, before the preseason training camp, the Rockets' coaching staff welcomed three new people.
Ma Jian, who has just retired from Aoshen, Yang Xuezeng of the U20 men's national basketball team, and Wang Fei, the former coach of the Bayi team, arrived in Houston and joined the Rockets coaching staff.
Qiao Hai also reassigned the task, and Tang Yi changed from the original video editor to a special teaching assistant, responsible for some chores.
New arrivals Ma Jian, Yang Xuezeng and Wang Fei will be the team's new video editors.
……
At the beginning of the preseason training camp, Qiao Hai also has to consider what kind of tactics the Rockets will play in the new season.
In the new season, the Rockets' lineup configuration is not much different from last season, still with Yao Ming as the absolute core, and several breakthrough points on the outside that can hold the ball.
The slight difference is that there are more outside ball points in the new season, from two last season, to three, and the distribution of the ball is a big problem.
However, Qiao Hai has also figured out a solution, at the beginning of the season, he will first let the experienced Gary Payton control the ball, and then let Wade gradually take over the rein.
And Ron Artest will be more focused on the defensive end, and his possession will be greatly reduced.
Of course, this does not mean that Ron Artest's shots will decrease, on the contrary, Joe Hai will increase Artay's off-ball runs, through some air cuts, attract defenses, catch and shoot to score.
On the inside, Yao Ming, who started the game, was not in charge of protecting the frame, and Chris Anderson was in charge of protecting the frame.
But after Chris Anderson leaves, Yao Ming will have to enter the inside frame, and Boris Dior will come on and occupy a high position.
On the offensive end, Yao Ming must also play low to enhance his aggressiveness.
Qiao Hai knows very well that Yao Ming wants to become a big killer on the inside, and it is inevitable to increase the confrontation, there is no way, who will make him the center!
