Although the two giants Apple and Google are far less powerful than later generations, they are already top giants in the eyes of most people.

It is not only Apple and Google who are interested in the newly born Facebook, but their reaction is far less rapid than Apple and Google.

At 3:00 pm, after a full hour of work, a new server that can be launched with millions of people at the same time is always online.

The Kirkland dormitory, which was originally very empty, is now much crowded, but for Facebook registered users, the waiting for more than an hour is long.

When Facebook went online again, it soon spread again, and those who had only heard that they had not had time to register flocked to Facebook's website one by one.

Comparing Facebook's current photos, he and her only have celebrities and college students, which made some high school students dissatisfied.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, when the number of registered users exceeded 150,000, Facebook's official account message showed many requests to add photos of the best high school students.

Mark Zuckerberg finally decided to join the best high school comparison, and in a few days he will join some photo comparisons in hot industries one after another.

But just after he released the best high school student review, his phone showed an unfamiliar number.

After answering the phone, Mark Zuckerberg shrugged and looked at his partner: "The phone number of Apple, they wanted to inject capital into us, and then proposed the idea of ​​acquiring us."

"Steve Jobs' Apple, want to acquire us?" Chris Hughes was very surprised, although Facebook's popularity exceeded all of them.

But he never expected that the website could attract the attention of giants like Jobs in less than a day after it was launched.

Eduardo Savilin is responsible for financial management while helping to create Facebook.

All expenses need to be managed by him. Originally, when Chen Tian and Mark Zuckerberg first talked, he was not counted.

Later, when Mark Zuckerberg and Chen Tian discussed, they decided to give Eduardo a 7% stake. This 7% came from Chen Tian and Mark Zuckerberg each with 2% of the original 40%, while Chris Hughes and Dustin Moscowitz each with 1.5% of the 10% respectively. This formed Eduardo's 7%.

Looking at Mark Zuckerberg, he asked, "Mark, how much did they pay? Ten million dollars?"

In his opinion, it is so popular and has endless potential. It is normal for Apple to offer a guaranteed price of 10 million, unless the other party is unsincere, or treats them as a group of students who don’t know anything. They deliberately offer low prices to buy and make a profit.

"They offered an acquisition proposal of 80 million, or they invested 10 million to get 20% of the shares." Mark Zuckerberg did not expect Apple to be so generous.

Eighty million US dollars made several people present gasp.

This is not a small amount, at least for them who are still in college.

Just as several people were lamenting the madness, Google also called.

When Mark Zuckerberg found out that it was Google's phone call, he was less shocked. Even though Google claimed that it could invest 50 million to grow Facebook, it even offered an acquisition contract of up to $100 million.

"Sorry, Mr. Rand, Facebook is not my own, I am just a partner, this is not something I can decide by myself, I hope you can give me some time to consider before replying."

Chris Hughes and others looked at Mark Zuckerberg with their eyes. They just heard the word 100 million.

If they guessed correctly, it was probably the acquisition price, otherwise Mark Zuckerberg would not have said that Facebook is not his own.

"I hope you get good news and contact me next time!" Rand was not disappointed. After all, this was his first contact, and it was impossible to expect success in one go.

"Mark, what's going on? I just heard 100 million?" asked Dustin Moscowitz.

"The Google phone calls are similar to Apple, but the price is higher.

We look very popular, otherwise they wouldn't have offered such a price on the first day." Mark Zuckerberg at least hasn't heard of any company that will attract other people's attention on the first day of its establishment.

At the same time, he can get such a high acquisition offer. If he sells it, he will immediately become a rich man of 40 million.

"God, I became a millionaire, even though it was just a offer, which shows that we have full potential, right?" Chris Hughes showed an incredible exaggeration.

"Justin. Just now Apple and Google called me, and they both proposed the idea of ​​injecting capital or acquiring?"

Chen Tian, ​​who was browsing on Facebook, received a call from Mark Zuckerberg. When Chen Tian heard the news, he frowned.

He didn't expect to attract the attention of giants on the first day, which is good news, not good news.

In the capital market, Facebook will definitely go public unless it does not want to continue to grow and make money.

Once listed shares are diluted, it is inevitable. Chen Tian didn't remember how many shares there are in Mark Zuckerberg in his later generations, but he seemed to have only about 10% left in his impression.

Chen Tian didn't understand business operations, but his intuition told him that this time was not good news. He thought of the Ellison brother and sister, and maybe they could help.

"Mark, we won't sell it now. Since they can offer such a high price now, it means that our potential will be greater, otherwise they would not have been like this.

Mark, when the number of members reaches 500,000, the function of ordinary people uploading photos to their respective accounts, and then adding photos of Kolau Moretz to make her photos a hot spot. I want many people to see them.

You need to operate the specific operation, I don’t understand computers!” Chen Tian said with a smile.

"OK, this is OK, it's OK, leave it to me." Mark Zuckerberg agreed.

Facebook's user registration number is like a snowball, and the growth rate is getting faster and faster.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, the number of registered users exceeded 300,000.

This growth rate made Mark Zuckerberg feel a little depressed about his mistakes before he could prepare to launch Khloe Moretz.

For Apple and Google, Facebook is growing too dazzling, and it is impossible for them to miss it.

After the comparison of the newly added best high school students, a large number of high school students quickly attracted to participate, which is also one of the reasons for the rapid growth of registered users.

"Bryan, I saw your photo. On this social networking site called Facebook, you are going to be famous, and you seem to be ranked sixth."

Brian Lively looked at her friend Ruth in confusion. She had never uploaded any photos.

"Oh my God, you don't know. I bet someone who has a crush on you must have uploaded it." Ruth said confidently, and she was very envious of Brian Lively.

I quickly opened the Facebook page, quickly logged into my account and found the best photo page for high school girls.

Brian Lively ranked sixth. 676 people already praised it.

"This girl will definitely become a superstar when she grows up, and she is very elegant."

"I like you, you are so beautiful. If you star in a movie or TV series, I will definitely watch it."

"Blonde girl, the future super beauty, Burbank High School is not far from where I am."

"it's beautiful!"

...

Brian Lively looked at comments with a smile on his face.

Her dream is to become an actress. She is now in the 10th grade in Burbank, Los Angeles, and after graduation she wants to try acting.

In fact, she did become a big star in the future and eventually became famous for her role as the heroine Serena in "Gossip Girl".

Although she didn't know what this evaluation was for, it should be very good to be ranked sixth, but her attention quickly looked at the five people in front of her.

"Dianna Agron?" Brian Lively murmured softly. The girl in the photo was also a blonde girl, with a slightly similar face to her, but a little rounder than her.

The eyes are bright, and the overall facial features are really beautiful. There are almost all the positive comments below the photo. The number of likes has reached 3,656.

The number of people she liked was almost a fraction of Deanna Agron's, and her original good mood suddenly became a little bad.

"Russ, my photo is not the best, right?" Brian Lively said with some depression. In fact, the photos uploaded on the computer are already very good.

"Of course. Your best photos will definitely be ranked higher when uploading them. Do you have them on your computer? I'll upload them for you."

As Brian Lively's best friend, Ruth knew what the other person was thinking.

The enthusiasm of high school students to participate is no worse than that of college students, and Facebook is getting more and more intense.

After being online for 24 hours, the number of Facebook registered users officially reached 500,000.

On this day, Facebook also attracted a lot of media attention, and the careful reporter naturally discovered the direct contact between Chen Tian and Facebook.

Mark Zuckerberg launched the selection of post-90s girls photos at 10 o'clock in the evening. Khlo Moretz quickly won the top three, and the number one was Julia Roberts' niece Emma Roberts.

Many popular actresses born in the 1985s appeared in Facebook's selection, and the next day, the media across the United States reported on Facebook.

"USA Today" even used the title "Social Miracle" to praise Facebook's incredibleness. The Disney Scouts Department, which has always focused on the development of young girls, has even turned its attention to the selection of young girls born in the 1990s.

Facebook is getting more and more popular. Chen Tian, ​​who is hidden behind the scenes, has appeared in the newspaper for the first time as a role that is not a scandal or a director film.

The Wall Street Journal even put Chen Tian and Mark Zuckerberg on the headlines of the economic page when Facebook was launched in three days after it reached 1 million registered users.

It also asserted that if Facebook can maintain growth, its market value will reach $500 million within one year.

"The Little Sunshine Beauty" starring Khlo Moretz has not yet been released, and the post-90s girl who has relied on Facebook has become the focus of countless people's attention.

Compared with Emma Roberts, who was born to live in the spotlight, people obviously prefer to pay attention to Khlo Moretz.

This directly made many people who didn't know "The Little Sunshine Beauty" decide to enter the theater and see how this self-destructive image of Kolau Moretz plays Oliver's performance.

However, the film market that did not burn due to the release of many new films made Eric Lomis worried that "The Little Sunshine Beauty" which coincided with "Lord of the Rings 3" will become cannon fodder.

Compared with "Super Burger King", "Fruit Hard Candy" and "This Man from Earth" combined with less than $5 million in promotion.

"The Little Sunshine Beauty" has been promoted in just ten days to $5 million. This does not include the promotional expenses that will be handed over to Harvey Weinstein to attack the Oscars after it was released.

Eric Lomis conservatively estimates that the promotional cost used on "The Little Sunshine Beauty" will reach 10 million. Although this is not a large amount, it is not a small amount for MGM.

If "The Little Sunshine Beauty" is as bad as the box office of the previous films, the pressure he faces will be greater.

Especially in the recent internal rumors within the company that MGM will be sold to Sony are becoming more and more real, if he does not perform well in his work, he is likely to step down. This is not what he wants to see.

Once "The Little Beauty of Sunshine" has excellent performance, he can at least have some self-provement chips with four films he collaborated with Chen Tian.

On December 16, 2003, there is still one day before "The Little Beauty of the Sun" and "The Lord of the Rings 3" are released.

Facebook's third server replacement was changed because the number of registered users has reached 10 million in just ten days.

Chen Tian invested $5 million again, and Mark Zuckerberg will rent an office building in Boston and recruit employees.
