"We are all peers and are all from software engineering majors. We don't have to be too polite. Yiming, just call me Li Yue."

Li Yue smiled and intended to bring the relationship closer with Zhang Yiming.

He and Zhang Yiming are both born in the 1980s. The other party is only one year older than him. He belongs to his peers and has the same major and has technical background, so it is easier to have common topics.

Among all the entrepreneurs born in the 1980s, what he admires most is Zhang Yiming, who studied technology and founded a distinctive technology company. He earned hundreds of billions of dollars at a young age, and it was before the Toutiao system was listed.

This is a leader of the future Internet. Even Lao Ma loves and hates him, but he can't do anything to him!

Zhang Yiming is still dormant and has not yet established a Toutiao company. It is a great time to win him over.

"It turns out that Mr. Li is also a major in software engineering!"

Zhang Yiming smiled shyly. When he heard that Li Yue’s major in college was the same as himself, he felt that his relationship with each other was much closer.

However, although the other party is the same age as him, his identity is there. After all, he is the chairman of a group company. He dare not be too presumptuous and argue with the other party's peers.

"Look, I've called you Yiming. You're so flirting with me, Mr. Li. Li Yue, Fuda Computer Department, majoring in software engineering at level 03."

Li Yue said with a smile.

Although he studied software engineering, he did not develop in technology after graduation.

Zhang Yiming is different. He can also develop software himself. In addition to being an entrepreneur, he is also a senior technical talent.

"Haha, I'm from the Computer Department of Nanjing University, a major in software engineering at Level 01. I'm a little older than you, so I'm not polite, so I'll call you Li Yue."

Zhang Yiming smiled and said that both of them graduated from prestigious universities and were both from technical backgrounds, so it is easier to get involved in their relationship.

However, he still admired the other party from the bottom of his heart.

With the same technical background, Li Yue is younger than him and has become the president of an investment company, and he is just a small engineer.

Of course, he has always had the idea of ​​starting a business and becoming a boss, but it is too difficult to start a business. He feels that he still needs to accumulate experience for a few years.

"That's right. I'll call you Yiming, just call me Li Yue. Don't be too distant."

Li Yue smiled and said, "Jinwei, have the tea be brewed? Come and serve it to Yiming."

"Boss, don't worry, it's time!"

Jin Wei gave Li Yue a blank look, then brought Li Yue and Zhang Yiming freshly brewed tea respectively.

"Come on, have tea first, this is the best Dahongpao on Wuyi Mountain in Fujian Province."

Li Yue smiled and greeted Zhang Yiming for tea.

"Well, good tea! It's indeed the best Dahongpao on our Wuyi Mountain!"

Zhang Yiming took a sip of tea and couldn't help but praise.

"Just like it, Jin Wei, prepare a pound of this kind of big red robe in a while and bring it back to Yiming for drinks."

Li Yue said to Jin Wei.

"Boss, this top-notch Dahongpao costs more than one million yuan per pound, and it is priceless. It is your favorite tea. We have less than two pounds in stock in total!"

Jin Wei couldn't help but curl her lips and said.

This Dahongpao was obtained by her boss for auction, and the auction price of two pounds was as high as more than three million.

Zhang Yiming looked ordinary, but the boss was so polite to him that he even gave half of the precious top-level Dahong Pao.

"Jinwei, you're talking a little too much today. As the saying goes, a sword gives heroes, a good tea gives friends, and a confidant is hard to find. What's the point of a pound of big red robe?"

Li Yue criticized Jin Wei.

"Okay, boss, you're right. I'll prepare later."

Jin Wei dared not to contradict her boss, and surrender immediately, as long as the boss is happy.

"This is impossible. I can't accept the reward without any merits. I can't want such a good big red robe."

Zhang Yiming was shocked when he heard that the big red robe he had just drunk cost more than one million yuan per pound, and he waved his hands to refuse.

"Haha... I've said it's hard to find a confidant. You and I hit it off at first sight. This little thing outside of me is nothing!"

Li Yue waved his hand and did not give Zhang Yiming the chance to refuse.

"Let's talk about the main business first. Li Yue, you said on the phone that you want me to develop an interesting product with very market demand. What kind of product is it? Can you tell me in detail?"

Zhang Yiming started by just cutting the topic, but he was still interested in technical products.

"Okay, then I'll just say it. I'm asking you to lead the technical team to develop a recommendation engine product based on data mining, recommend information to users, and provide services that connect people and information. I call it headlines!"

Li Yue directly threw out the concept of headlines in later generations.

Zhang Yiming's first project after starting his own business was Toutiao, so he definitely couldn't refuse this request.

At the beginning, after Zhang Yiming graduated from Nanjing University, a senior brother read his background information on BBS and asked him to start a business together.

At that time, the senior brother simply told Zhang Yiming on the phone that he was about to develop a product that was in demand, and that the products on the market were not done well, but as long as he followed his ideas, he could make good and useful products.

Later, Zhang Yiming recalled: "This kind of conversation is easier to attract me. There is no need to talk about going public and making money. Make a phone call first and then have a face-to-face meal."

Two weeks after that conversation, Zhang Yiming decided to join the senior brother's entrepreneurial team.

The headlines are undoubtedly more attractive to Zhang Yiming.

"Top news? Are you talking about a recommendation engine product, not a simple media news?"

Zhang Yi obviously became interested.

Headlines, just listening to the name, think it is a traditional media news product, but in fact it is a recommendation engine product.

"Yes, the product I want you to develop is based on personalized recommendation engine technology, and personalized recommendations are based on multiple dimensions such as each user's interests, location, etc. The recommended content not only includes news in a narrow sense, but also includes information such as music, movies, games, shopping..."

Li Yue explained the product characteristics and concepts of Toutiao to Zhang Yiming.

The more Zhang Yiming listened, the more frightened he became, and he became more moved.

This is a product that has never appeared in China. It is an epoch-making product of the Internet. Once it is made, there will be a bright future.

"Developing such a product requires a lot of artificial intelligence technology and many advanced algorithms..."

Zhang Yiming frowned slightly. It is not easy to develop products like headlines, especially when a large number of advanced algorithms are used. Without hundreds of senior engineers working together, it is difficult to develop them in a short period of time.

"It's okay, I'll pay, people, and venues, and you just need to lead the team and develop the product."

Li Yue said domineeringly, he wants money and people. As long as Zhang Yiming is willing to lead the team, the headlines can be released in advance.
