Nirvana of Rebirth

Zach appeared in the meeting room of Sequoia Capital in Shanghai, and then put forward ten almost unreasonable reasons in front of everyone. This deviant approach does not prevent people from being excavated in later generations to form an interesting legend that will be talked about many years later.

And in all these reports and stories that have been expanded through newspapers and magazines, through television media, and through Internet consultation, there will always be the most true source of exaggeration and interpretation. This story is seen by the outside world. "The heavy punch of the redwoods" is like the bleak cold wind this winter, the camphor trees swaying outside the building, the black benches near the park, and the pedestrians hurrying past the streets through the ridges. It is so natural and 〖true〗 Really to blame. Fastest update of novel chapters

"On top of the trend that swept years later." When Zach was interviewed by a famous American TV show in person. The beautiful and outstanding host asked Mark about this obsessive and entangled incident in the world. .

"Because Sequoia Capital was in the industry at that time." As the leader of a global venture capital company, saying that this company was an eagle, then the Facebook at that time was a baby bird. But a nestling can be an eagle. You used practical actions to fight back against those Silicon Valley venture capitalists, once called heroes. Is this just a display of the distinctive personality and domineering facial makeup? Now that I think about it, even I feel sorry for those capitalists who are not seen by Facebook.

Zac looked a little shy on the screen where his figure was slightly distorted on the cameras and behind the camera in the live TV room, but he still spoke like a gunshot. He recalled the scene statement of the year "When I spoke to that When performing a slide show. They listened very politely throughout the process, so that I am very, very, made, and I was late that time" and wearing pajamas and pajamas to show their contempt for them. I later thought that I might indeed offend them at that time. Things are doing a little badly. They are very serious people. They go to Shanghai, China from all over the world, just to make a good investment. But I wasted their time because I wanted to target the individuals in them. If I do it again, I think I will change it, not so radical "but it should be clear at the time."

"It seems that you are a lot more mature and stable than your impulse and omissions since then." The beautiful host smiled, "If we remember it well, the reason why you partnered with the top executives of Sequoia Company at that time People did it this time because of the one in your company, right?"

Realizing that he had said something wrong, the host changed his words, "Oh" I'm sorry, technically speaking, it is no longer a co-president. No matter how you say "At the time, you were friends, right?"

Zach, in the midst of various public opinion storms, suddenly pondered in front of the camera," and then nodded" "Yes, he is the best friend."

The host has mixed feelings, "From that time to now", you personally think, will there be a feeling of fooling people in the world. "

Zach's eyes were dull, not knowing whether it was a memory or he was really staying, even the host admitted that from the beginning to the end, she hadn't seen the twenty-four-year-old man in front of her, who had read countless people.

He is on the Forbes list of the youngest richest people in the world with a worth of 6.5 billion US dollars. His name and companies that have also aroused hot discussion frequently appear on the covers of American magazines. But he still seems to be troubled at the moment. He seems to be wearing With the coldness of the ruler of the empire, the seemingly dull gaze is not completely apathetic." But as long as you look closely with some eyesight, you will see that he is actually caught in an extremely fine memory.

It wasn’t until long enough for the live broadcast that he slowly spoke, and every word seemed to weigh more than a thousand words. “We dived into the backyard pool from the roof of the rented house. We used to drive. I took that second-hand Ford Mustang for hundreds of kilometers to eat koala meat that smelled like a cedar tree. We sat on the road and vomited because we drank too much. We sat on the eaves together and looked at Orion and the only visible in the northern hemisphere. The Andromeda Outer Galaxy "At that time, we all thought of entrepreneurship" The future, dreams, blueprints, prospects, these things will never change in the passage of time"..................

In January 2003, Zach and his party arrived in Shanghai. In terms of news, several large domestic Internet companies, which are no less than Sequoia Capital, have sent invitation letters to them.

Zach rejected the appearance of Sequoia Capital, but he has not been well-known. "After all, several of Sequoia Capital’s partners and senior executives gathered in Shanghai." It will not be publicized, but the industry seniors who are slightly qualified to get in touch with these insiders have naturally spread. Obviously, this is a big move.

It's just that the shock from the outside world turned into a shock. From the time Zach arrived in Shanghai on the 14th to the 20th, he originally thought that Zach, who came to China for the first time, would run around, but on the contrary, he stayed at the Holiday Inn next to Nantah University. Next, I asked for a very luxurious large suite.

Then I wore slippers, jeans and shirts that lasted forever. "At most, I put a thin coat on the outside. Although Shanghai has the icy cold wind, even in the high school Exeter Middle School, New Hampshire is enough. On a winter day when Houhai Lake in Exeter was frozen, he still dressed up like this." This makes it uncomfortable for everyone who is worried that he will be pierced by the cold Shanghai wind in such a dress.

The end of the NTU term on the 14th is completely over. "The winter vacation is coming. Most of the people left school 6 days later. Cheng Congcong from Tang Wu’s dormitory returned home. Ruan Siming and his friend returned to Suzhou with a friend. Tong Tong seemed to go directly to his hometown in Hunan. Li Han The girlfriend is from Shanghai, so when he got on the train to Shaanxi," the two people are said to be hard to separate at the station. Xiao Xu also left. Zhang Xiaoqiao was still at school, anyway, no matter he went back to the dormitory, he was still at Nanda, so he stayed at school with Su Can."

Su Can told the family that it might be later to go home this time, so Tang Wu also postponed the time to return to Rongcheng. I heard that Tang Wu’s home trip is undecided. Ning Dong, who was studying at Shanghai Foreign Language School, called Tang Wu frequently after the holidays. When Tang Wu came to Shanghai, "Ning Dong often came here, but as time goes by, it’s now compared to hers." Three days a group of people's circle of friends" Tang Wu prefers to go shopping with them. So after that, Ning Dong tried his best to meet Tang Wu alone by himself, "putting behind the people in the circle of friends who complained and asked for introduction.

On the 15th, Su Can only received a text message from Lin Luoran. The content of the text message was simple: "It's winter vacation" I left Shanghai, don't miss it. "

Of course, Su Can couldn't reply with the same frivolously, so he had to type, "Where will I go this time and when will I return to Rongcheng."

"Classes in Beijing. Time is short" may not go back. "

"So diligent?" Su Can replied. "In fact, looking at Lin Luoran at ordinary times, she seems to like to be playful, but once she calms down and immerses herself in researching something," she can also be quite invested. This is why she has always been in the school, although the various disciplines are not top-notch", but the top students still can't hide their reputation.

"I can't go out of the country, I can't take the sea turtle route. I have to do my best to enrich myself to enhance my competitiveness and take precautions." There is a postgraduate training class in the School of Economics at Peking University. It’s just my first glimpse of the path to graduate school, and now I can learn more without reading me as a dinosaur. It’s said that the chest hides a lot of money and absorbs more ink. Only then will I be able to spit out the face of a harsh thesis subject teacher."

Su Can directly passed a few ellipsis.

Lin Luoran responded with a bright smile, then turned off the phone, and "arrived in the capital two hours ago...................

Facebook has opened up a special "café" covering an area of ​​more than 100 square meters. It is an informal office meeting place. Most people like to come here with their laptops while drinking coffee and writing programs.

When Zach came to Shanghai, Zach and Su Can and others sat in a coffee shop when Zach visited Facebook. "Qiao Shuxin, "Financial Officer Kate," and Li Pengyu were accompanied. Mentioned that Facebook currently has nearly 200 employees, Su Can Jiu said, "We pay a monthly housing subsidy of 1,000 yuan to each employee", which allows more employees to choose to settle in a residence close to the office. "The current nearly 200 employees on Facebook" have a certain degree. Follow the example of American Facebook, mostly through campus recruitment.

Compared to some positions that require a lot of social experience," Su Can knows how to make full use of academic resources. Many of the Facebook employees are graduates from schools such as Tongji, Shanghai Jiaotong, and Nanjing University. Most of them are between the ages. Between the ages of twenty-three and thirty-five, these are the backbones, but after that, some people who can meet them continue to join, such as Zhang Guo and Shanbi M who are technical experts." Some people with considerable experience in management and operation.

The management mode of Facebook is a kind of reckless and reckless behavior, relatively loose, and it is not simply a production at the desk. Most people can ask two friends to go to the coffee shop to chat and play cards when they are tired. You can also go to the theater supporting the building to watch discounted movies. You can also play a live football game with a game console equipped by the company.

And this was a kind of disorganized work attitude that Qiao Shuxin completely opposed. In the past, Qiao Shuxin thought that this could completely destroy a company." But after the reality of this system, most people are very dedicated and effective. This makes Qiao Shuxin sometimes find it difficult to understand.

"I heard that some employees work very hard. One day they drove home after working overtime. They rushed to the community almost in the early morning, hit the Hua station in the middle of the community, and fell asleep directly?" Some things even go overseas. Gram is clear.

"It's true. So after that, we don't encourage employees to drive home by themselves after working overtime, and even use housing subsidies to open up dormitories near the company." Qiao Shuxin said hastily.

Many people are looking at them from a distance at the entrance of the coffee shop. For the entire company, Su Can and Zac are the two most mysterious and awe-inspiring beings.

One or two years ago, perhaps these arrogant graduates from prestigious schools, or engineers and managers with real experience, who would be willing to work for two stunned young men who are less than two years old? However, in the following year or two, the rapid development of Facebook has been far imagined. There were about 1 million users in the United States in 2001, reaching 3 million at the end of 2001, and then in May 2002. It reached five million, and then at the end of 2002, it increased to eight million.

Facebook has also gotten a lot of progress this year, from its initial creation of only 100,000 users in July 2002 to over one million members in January 2003. To some extent, this growth rate has exceeded the spread of American Facebook, so Zach flew to the sea to celebrate when there were millions of members, which means that he is actually very concerned about this.

Even the people in the public office can feel this pressure. When many people talk in private, they will be very interested in discussing some major decisions and problems. How did Su Can and Zach deal with it? , Often in the handling of some things, they are more calm and composed than ordinary people, which is enough to make people have a kind of leader's awe of them. Now no one will look at them in terms of pure age and appearance.

The continuous growth of Facebook users is actually a double-edged sword, which means that the spread of public company technology must keep up with the growth of members. Most of the technicians are dealing with the daily crisis. Often the database is about to be overloaded, solve it. Users cannot send e-mails. Any problems must be solved quickly. The server was almost overloaded this week, which means that the next week will definitely be overloaded, the website will not work, the load capacity must be increased, and hundreds of thousands of equipment will be added to the data center and network equipment.

"Under the current situation, as long as we maintain normal operations, we can strengthen the trend. In this way, it will only take another two or three years. There will be no one kind of website that has the possibility to challenge us. Similarly, we will get closer to Google. Such a giant enterprise.

Created the social network of the Empire State. It is not easy to just maintain normal operation. Zach said to Su Canti, "Many young engineers make some seemingly small but serious mistakes. The basic software code of Facebook consists of a very long instruction file, which violates the basic standards of such websites. This means that some basic errors can paralyze the entire website. Once, because the source code stream of the source code company was released, an engineer wrote the wrong program, so that the user could log in to any account at will. Another summer intern on Facebook made a coding error, which caused the entire website to click on any one to be linked to a customer. Therefore, it is necessary to be cautious, and details determine success or failure. "

There is a saying that being better than others is whether you can make fewer mistakes than others. Zach's words probably have the same effect.

The capital injection of the venture capital group is in place, in addition to maintaining the normal display of Facebook, a small part of the 63 million US dollars can be left to Su Can and Zach.

"I will allocate 15 million U.S. dollars to support Facebook's acquisition of the shares of World of Warcraft sister. At the same time, this matter must be carried out in secret. On the venture capital side, I will have a more reasonable explanation." Privately, Zak said to Su Can, " Don’t forget that we occupy three of the five-seat board of directors. The Huashengdun Post Group and we are old friends. They will also support us at critical moments."

Su Can’s Big Pineapple Holdings needs 25 million U.S. dollars to acquire 30% of World of Warcraft’s shares.” Su Can’s self-raised funds are around 80 million U.S. dollars. There is still a funding gap of 95 million. The 15 million US dollars from Facebook is more than enough.

Su Can knows why Zach spared no effort to support his acquisition of Blizzard's World of Warcraft, in order to "", in line with Zac's strategy of building a future entertainment social software platform.

In the history of the software technology industry ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ to become a software platform for other applications to run on it is one of the most glorious ultimate goals of this industry.

Two ten years ago, "Microsoft placed its Windows software in a monopoly on the personal computer operating system platform, which dominated the software technology industry for two ten years. Anyone who wishes to design applications for personal computers Software people have to use the Windows operating system.

Creating a platform allows the company to become the core position of the entire ecosystem and the most indispensable part of it. All participants must rely on this company. As for the core position of the ecosystem, competition can hardly shake such a throne.

The realization of this is also advantageous to Apple, which uses its operating system, and Su Can knows that Apple will be successful again in the future. Become an "ie" artifact of an arcade machine.

"I have a hunch, whether we can finally build a social entertainment platform, which determines our future direction. How much money-making ability is is the second thing. We don't need to think too much. If we really have to consider, how to build Such a platform to strengthen our market position. To an unshakable point?"
