Chapter 262 Everyone has their own aspirations

After getting the hard drive, Lin Baiyao called Yao Chunfeng directly.

As agreed before, the next day a young man from the Tsinghua Computer Science Department came from the capital.

His name is Song Zhemu, and his name is very strange, but his resume is very impressive and he has won many awards from Tsinghua University and China.

That is to say, there is no Yao Bandhiban and Cross Information Institute now, otherwise I would definitely be one of the most awesome ones.

Song Zhemu's mentor is a great master in the industry, and he is also a life-and-death friend of Yao Chunfeng's mentor at University. They are very familiar with each other.

This time Yao Chunfeng asked him to introduce several masters who were proficient in program architecture, functional design, communication programming and other technologies. However, when he heard that the workplace was in Yuezhou and it was a little-known small company, no one really wanted to come.

Because of Yao Chunfeng's face, Dada sent his favorite disciple Song Zhemu over, saying that he wanted to see the situation here first, but in fact it was just to deal with errands.

After meeting Lin Baiyao, Song Zhemu was shocked by the office environment of Huantu Network. The 800-square-meter high-end decorated office building was completely different from other entrepreneurial companies.

You must know that the Goose Factory, which was just founded last month, is still renting two rooms in a dilapidated building in Huaqiangbei, next to the toilet, which is full of stench.

A year later, when Ali started his business, the eighteen Arhats were crowded into a small house to attend classes, and the conditions were so poor that the boy who delivered the things mistakenly thought it was a pyramid scheme.

This is also the current situation of most entrepreneurs. One penny is split into two cents, and they rely entirely on the leader's chicken blood and chicken soup to survive.

It’s true that there are people as generous as Huantu Network, but it’s extremely rare.

After a brief acquaintance, Lin Baiyao said with a smile: "Brother Song, do you know anything about the field of instant messaging, oh, we like to talk about network paging systems in China?"

"You mean icq? Isn't it just something that four young people from Israel with no technical background worked on for two months? It's very good abroad, but it's not easy to use in China. It's all in English but not Chinese. The operation logic is impressive and has no future."

Song Zhemu spoke in an understatement, not hiding his disdain.

Lin Baiyao asked in a tentative tone: "What if we develop a similar software program, localize it, and make it easier to use?"

Song Zhemu frowned and said: "What happens after it is easy to use? Mr. Lin, you are a businessman and do not understand technology. For things like icq, the code is not difficult, which means there are no technical barriers. You don't need me, just the computer department of Suhuai University

If you recruit a few masters who know how to use C, you can work it out for a few months. But the problem is that there is no point in making such a thing. As of now, icq has nearly 10 million registrations worldwide, but it has not yet found a way to make money.

Burn money, burn money, burn money again, and when all the money is burned, it will be over..."

"But I heard that icq was sold to American Online AOL. The purchase price was more than 400 million US dollars. Doesn't it still explain its value?"

Seeing Lin Baiyao's persistence, Song Zhemu became impatient and said: "I understand the current trend. As long as the concept of the Internet is involved, everyone wants to get in and get a share of the pie, regardless of whether they have money or not. But have you thought about it?

However, if there is any prospect of imitating icq, countless Internet companies will immediately follow suit..."

After saying that, he pretended not to mean it and tried to smooth things over, saying, "Ha, Mr. Lin, don't blame me for being blunt. You are in the publishing business. Just because the revolution of learning sells well, it does not mean that you can also sell well in Internet products. It's a big deal.

Chances are, by then your product will just be a trial run for others. With a star leader like Sohu, or a new giant like Sina that was just established last year but has become the largest Chinese community website due to mergers and acquisitions, you simply can’t survive.

Come down..."

He paused, his tone became serious, and said: "There is another thing that cannot be ignored, that is, NetEase.nic (Domestic Internet Information Center) voted for the top ten Chinese websites, and NetEase ranked first. There was another vote in January this year.

Judging from the current ranking data, NetEase is still ranked first. Mr. Lin, Sohu, Sina, and NetEase all have portals, which are the support points that connect users to the Internet. What about you? Maybe you only have the name Huantu Network and 800 square meters.

Luxurious office. I didn’t even have time to register the website domain name, and I started to imitate icq. To be honest, I don’t see a one-ten-thousandth chance of success.”

Song Zhemu spoke eloquently, and Lin Baiyao listened quietly to him expressing his views and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Brother Song has not graduated yet, but he knows so much about Internet companies, and he has both business acumen and Internet thinking. I admire him."

"

Song Zhemu smiled reservedly, with a look of superiority and arrogance in his eyes that he could not hide, and said: "Mr. Lin may not know that Tsinghua's financial management is also second to none..."

This is understandable.

With his background as a top student at Tsinghua University and a technical master, it is understandable that he would dislike Lin Baiyao, an upstart who sells books.

In fact, overall, Song Zhemu's vision cannot be said to be bad.

After the birth of qq in the previous life, other companies rushed to the market. Indeed, many competing products appeared within a year or two, but no one could have imagined that qq, which could not even raise funds at the beginning, would survive in the end and become a towering tree.

Why did QQ survive?

There are too many reasons, including strength and luck, and I have been on the verge of death several times, but I always turn disaster into good fortune.

However, these are not enough for outsiders.

Lin Baiyao offered a few more words of caution, symbolically offering an annual salary similar to Yao Chunfeng's, but Song Zhemu declined both of them.

"To be honest with Mr. Lin, I am quite optimistic about NetEase, and I also have a relationship with NetEase CEO Ding Lei. He plans to move the company's headquarters from the south to the capital this year, and has also invested 500,000 to collaborate on a project with my mentor. If the project goes well

, I will most likely join NetEase after graduation..."

This is because everyone has his own ambitions, and good birds choose trees to live in. Lin Baiyao can't compare with NetEase now, and his aura is not very compatible with Song Zhemu's. He didn't say anything more, just had a light meal and packed five hundred yuan.

Travel expenses, buy a plane ticket and send him back to Beijing as a gift.

But this matter cannot be delayed. Just when he was scratching his head, Ye Sushang met him in the cafeteria and sighed: "It's a pity, Wei Zhu only has three days of New Year's Day holiday, and she went back to class to work on her computer today. I was wondering, the computer

What’s so fun and how interesting is making money?”

Lin Baiyao suddenly remembered that Wei Zhu had gone to Qiantang City to participate in a four-school computer competition. The four schools included Jiangnan University. The computer major of Jiangnan University was worse than that of Qingbei University, but it was also among the top three in the country.

"Ye Zi, you are studying philosophy. You have escaped from low-level tastes and have reached the second level of what a master said. Seeing mountains is not mountains, and seeing water is not water. Wei Zhu is still the first level. Your qualifications are too low. Don't be the same as her.

."

"Yeah?"

Ye Sushang looked at Lin Baiyao doubtfully and said, "Why do I feel that you don't mean what you said?"

Lin Baiyao picked up the big chicken drumstick on his dinner plate and stuffed it into Ye Sushang's little mouth, and said: "I still have something to do, so I'll go ahead and remember to put away the dinner plate later..."

Ye Sushang took a bite of the chicken leg, curled his lips, and said, "Some people have a guilty conscience. If they want to go find their old classmates, they can go find them. They have to tell me that they are wrong in front of me first... They want to hide it, bah!"
