For (such a coquettish me) to reward and add more, I still owe a more.

The number of users is always the fundamental factor that determines the value of an enterprise. But having users doesn't necessarily mean that you will be able to convert users into sales.

For example, Wen Ming's "Plants vs. Zombies" has been online for 4 weeks, and the total number of users on various platforms around the world has exceeded 30 million, of which the number of payments has reached more than 21 million.

With such a large group of paying users, the high cash revenue brought to Wenming is not mentioned for the time being, but whether these users will continue to support Wenming's Apple company, and other products launched is a very serious problem.

In the previous life, the company that produced "Plants vs. Zombies", when it produced "Plants vs. Zombies 2", although the sales were still hot, compared to the sales and various records of "Plants vs. Zombies 1", it can be described as Waterloo.

The original users have not been able to convert into sales of new products, not only because the playability of new products is not high enough, but also because games are completely inferior to other products for the cultivation of users' habits.

To put it simply, games are not a necessity and users can discard them at any time.

Compared with games, Instagram, the second product launched by Apple, can easily become an indispensable part of users' lives because of its social performance. Just like QQ, Facebook and other social apps, they can no longer be treated simply as a software, but can be regarded as a circle of users.

"Boss, the number of registered users has exceeded 3 million!"

In just one hour, Instagram has created a miracle, a new social app, which was able to attract more than 3 million users to register in an hour after it was launched, and it has to be said that the popularity of "Plants vs. Zombies" is still at its peak.

Wen Ming is naturally extremely happy in his heart, because Instagram users are definitely different from users of "Plants vs. Zombies", these users will regard Instagram as an indispensable social app in their lives because of Instagram's function.

But this happy mood didn't last long, because Wen Ming finally received a call from Cui Chuanming.

"I'm sorry."

Wen Ming, who had just walked to his office to pick up the phone, heard this sentence that made him very, very unhappy.

Cui Chuanming said on the other side of the phone: "Although I successfully persuaded my teacher to communicate with Teresa, the result of the communication was not very good. ”

Wen Ming took a deep breath, forcibly kept his emotions from exploding, and asked in a calm voice, "What is his reason?" ”

Cui Chuanming hesitated for a moment and said, "Yesterday, my teacher went to New York, but I didn't see Teresa until this morning, you know, big people like them are always very busy. ”

Wen Ming understood why Cui Chuanming's call was only made today a week later, but he didn't want to know this reason, and after interrupting Cui Chuanming's words a little rudely, Wen Ming said: "Mr. Cui, I hope you can be direct." ”

Cui Chuanming was stunned because of Wen Ming's sudden change of attitude, in the previous exchange, whether he rejected Wen Ming or told Wen Ming the good news, Wen Ming's attitude was very polite, even if he was excited, he was able to restrain himself well.

Can now?

How did he know how important dinosaur blood samples were to Wen Ming!

After coughing dryly, Cui Chuanming omitted a lot of foreshadowing and said directly: "Teresa asked someone to investigate you, because of the results of the investigation, he thinks that you don't have enough strength to invest in the plan to 'resurrect' the dinosaurs." He believes that wanting to invest in a project that is not in your interest at all when you have just had a small achievement is a sign that your ambition is completely beyond your ability. You don't even have the ability to tell which projects you can invest in and which ones you can make money. ”

"The conclusion is that your Apple company will soon face bankruptcy because of the expansion that followed your sudden success. If a dinosaur's blood sample were handed to you, it would only be a waste of this almost unique resource. ”

After saying it in one breath, Cui Chuanming was a little worried that Wen Ming would vent his anger on him.

Teresa Roy can say these things because he is worth nearly 10 billion dollars and is the world's most famous billionaire. Moreover, because of his investment in charity, he has great prestige in all walks of life, and he also has a lot of resources in American politics.

Wen Ming, who can make Teresa look down on, is an existence that Cui Chuanming envies very much. The two are also students at Harvard University, Cui Chuanming has graduated and can even stay in school, but Wen Ming went through the procedures for suspension in the first year.

It stands to reason that Wen Ming is definitely not as good as Cui Chuanming. But the reality is always unacceptable, Wen Ming is already a destined billionaire, and Cui Chuanming still needs to pull research funds everywhere.

"Hello?"

There was no sound coming out of the telephone receiver for a long time, which made Cui Chuanming a little puzzled.

After two feeds, he heard a long exhale from the other side.

This voice, I don't know why, suddenly reminded Cui Chuanming of the pufferfish, which is the kind of person who will suddenly swell itself into a ball when it encounters danger, and will only return to its original body shape after the danger is removed.

Wen Ming took a few long breaths before he calmed down, just like Cui Chuanming thought in his heart, in front of a rich person like Teresa Roy, Wen Ming really couldn't hang up.

"Is there really such a person, who is useless in his hands, but is unwilling to sell it to me, just because he is afraid that I will waste it?"

Cui Chuanming was relieved when he heard Wen Ming's ridicule, and said: "Teresa Roy is different from other capitalists, just like the investment company under him, it is a real angel investment, not a mantle of angel investment, in fact, it is a venture capital company that wants to go public and make money." ”

Wen Ming nodded, and when Cui Chuanming told him that the dinosaur blood sample was in Teresa Roy's hands, he also inquired about Teresa Roy's relevant information in detail.

Of course, unlike Teresa Cha, the nature of the information he got was different, and what he got was all well-known information from the outside world, and the main source was the Google search engine.

"In other words, he's worried that I'll waste a dinosaur's blood sample because of a broken funding chain?"

Cui Chuanming hesitated for a moment and replied, "Actually, ......"

"It's okay, you can say anything." Wen Ming was obviously mentally prepared to take the blow.

Cui Chuanming coughed dryly again and said, "My teacher said that Teresa is worried that you will use the project of 'resurrecting' dinosaurs to cheat the investment of capital. ”

Wen Ming was stunned for a moment and smiled bitterly.

For many people in the investment industry, the most fearful thing is to meet the kind of indispensable entrepreneur who talks about the future of a project. After such a person gets the investment, he uses the money to his advantage, buys a luxury car and a mansion, and lets the project rot, and it is not his own money that is spent anyway.

is like Wen Ming's batie in his previous life, pulling a lot of people's eggs. There is also the so-called sharing economy, except for some that can provide convenience to the general public, the vast majority of them use temporary gimmicks to defraud investors' funds.

Thinking of this, Wen Ming completely understood the obstacle of getting a dinosaur blood sample.

"Mr. Cui."

Wen Ming thought of Instagram, which was skyrocketing in terms of users at this time, and said into the phone: "I hope you can do me another favor and ask your teacher to help me relay a word to Teresa Roy." ”

"Ask him to pay attention to my company's latest product, Instagram."

"I believe that it is impossible for the professionals who invest in the fund under his command not to see the value of Instagram."

Cui Chuanming was stunned and asked, "What is Instagram?" ”

Wen Ming smiled: "After hanging up, you can search for this software, trust me, you will like it." ”
