It turned out to be that madman.

Elon Musk has a lot of popularity among many entrepreneurs in the United States.

First of all, he is a billionaire, but after becoming a billionaire, Musk took the money and turned non-stop to his space dream - he wanted to turn humanity into an "interstellar species".

In order to be able to go around the universe at the lowest cost, Musk began to look for rockets all over the world.

The European asking price was too high, so he went to Mauritius, where an intercontinental missile costs $7 million a piece.

Musk took $21 million and planned to buy three, but he didn't expect that in the end, the Maoists repented, and they said that 21 million could only buy one.

Musk left angrily, and then he came up with a shocking idea: he wanted to build his own rocket! This is Musk's third startup, SpaceX.

Many people in the United States call him crazy, thinking that his ideas are unrealistic, and the cost of space exploration is not something that a private company like him can support.

As for building rockets, it is even more impossible, it is a technology that NASA has only mastered.

Jax frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "Let them wait in the reception room, the board of directors is discussing the specific agreement method of development cooperation." ”

This time, the company's business development is too fast, so fast that many people are not ready, and many measures can only be discussed on an ad hoc basis and decisions made urgently.

"The computer engineer named Hawke said he had a proposal and wanted you to look at it before deciding whether to meet them." The clerk handed a computer-printed document to Jax.

Jax hurriedly scanned a few paragraphs, and his expression suddenly became serious: "Invite them to a separate reception room, and I'll be right there." ”

The clerk left the office quickly.

Jax also tidied up his appearance a little, said hello to the board, and left the computer....

Hawke hadn't slept all night, and he felt very tired at this time, but he still bothered himself and sat quietly on the sofa with a cup of piping hot coffee to refresh himself.

】

Elon Musk, who was sitting next to him, was also a little sleepy, but overall he still looked very confused.

He used to be the largest shareholder in Hawke's company Paypel, but last October the company was bought by eBay for $1.5 billion.

And he also got $165 million of it.

Few people know.

Many years ago.

One summer afternoon in my youth.

He lay on his desk and had a wonderful dream that he had become a billionaire, but when he woke up and mentioned it to others, he was ridiculed by his classmates, who called him an idiot.

In South Africa at the time, billionaires were simply out of reach.

However, at the age of thirty-one, he truly realized his childhood dream in the United States and became a veritable billionaire.

Personal assets amounted to $200 million.

Because he was familiar with Hawke, after knowing that he was ready to quit his job and start a business, Musk was very interested in his plan, so he came to the New York Internet company with him.

By the way, let's see if there is an opportunity to reach further cooperation with New York Internet Company.

After all, his Space X company also needs excellent software engineers to help them design intelligent identification and guidance modules for their rockets.

The door to the reception room opened, and a middle-aged man walked in.

The three of them looked at each other, smiled, and stretched out their hands.

"Jax, General Manager of New York Network Technologies!"

"Hawke, computer network engineer."

"Elon Musk, CEO of Space X."

After they shook hands and saw each other's appearance, they couldn't help but tidy up their appearance, and then laughed at the same time.

"Looks like you haven't slept all night!" Jax sat down next to him.

He felt that sitting across from a customer would give them the impression that they were in a hostile situation, so he used to like to sit next to the customer when he was doing sales work.

Everyone is like like-minded friends, and the atmosphere is more harmonious.

"I originally wanted to go to bed early, but I didn't expect you to launch such an unprecedented network, which made me addicted to it, no way, only insomnia!" Musk shrugged his shoulders and gently complimented the other party.

Hawk sat on the side and nodded, deeply impressed by Musk's words, he realized the opportunity, so he wrote the business plan overnight.

Jax laughed, "I see in the plan, you're going to rent our line at the regular price, right?" I don't understand, how do you make money then? ”

Hawke smiled slyly: "If you follow the previous way of doing business, you really can't make any money just by providing customers with email addresses or something, but you launched this network, which makes all the impossible possible, even our small individual companies may also make a lot of money!" ”

"Can you elaborate on your plans?" Jax poured himself a cup of coffee, then crossed his feet and chatted with him.

Hawke hesitated for a moment, but when he thought that his plan had to be supported by the other party, he said: "I live in a place where the income of the residents is relatively high, there are senior employees of large companies, and there are some owners of small and medium-sized companies, and I have a good relationship with them, not only can I convince them to join our network, but at the same time, I can also provide them with some value-added services." ”

"Huh?" Jax nodded intriguingly, encouraging him to continue.

"For example, make a business website for them..."Hawk smiled and said softly, "So, I would like to ask you to provide technical support, because, what I want to do most is a comprehensive e-commerce platform." ”

"Even though there are companies like eBay and Amazon in the United States now, their business is also limited to auctioning and selling online books, and I think there are many categories that can be sold online......"

Jaxten stood up suddenly.

E-commerce platform!

That's a very lucrative project!

This engineer, what he is holding, is actually such a plan!

Jax himself plans to develop the business operation of the Internet in the next step, and this e-commerce platform is the focus of his consideration.

Of course, if you want to build an e-commerce platform, what must be solved is the problem of electronic payment.

But he is not worried about this.

Because at this time, the online finance in the United States has been relatively mature, and there are many online payment platforms such as 2checkout and PayPal to choose from.

They only need to send someone to negotiate with the other company about access.

It's just that he doesn't understand why the company's board of directors has purchased so many advanced network software from Infinity Corporation, why not even the business development department entrust the other party to develop it?

He didn't know that Chen Weidong put forward the concept of commercial development at the beginning.

However, the process of computer networks in China is still relatively backward.

In the past few years, most banks still use manual bookkeeping, even if you want to build an online payment platform, it is not an easy task.

BWI's website prior to launch.

Infinity sent people to six or seven departments and communicated with the presidents of several major banks many times, but did not get any specific answers.

The other party is always polite, but when it comes to the core issue, he plays a role.

It's not that it's too risky, it's that the network is not secure.

In short, troublesome.

Because for banks, the third-party payment business will cause diversion to their users, and the situation of high profitability and high monopoly in the banking industry will also be broken.

So, how could they easily let go.

In the end, Chen Weidong was really forced to have no choice, Chen Weidong found Director Zhang, poured bitter water, explained the pros and cons of many aspects, and even did not hesitate to take out the matter of the Xiangjiang financial crisis a few years ago.

In the end, due to the situation, after several studies and discussions, the one made a decision and said to try it, but there are still many restrictions.

For example, the amount of a single transaction is limited to 200 yuan.

But in the United States, such restrictions do not exist, they already have a well-established credit system, and the means of electronic payment, both in terms of hardware and software, are mature.

At home, it's too easy to solve, but in the United States.
