MTL - Since 2000-Chapter 81 : you happen to have

Zheng Guangsheng got a 20 million bridge loan from Lin Feng as he wished, but, hehe...

He was carried out.

However, his treatment is much better than that of Jack Ma. In the future, I am afraid it will be another thing worth showing off.

On the way to start a business, I believe that everyone has the experience of seeking funds.

Ma Yun once rejected 37 VCs, and Ma Huateng once planned to sell QQ because he could not raise funds.

For many years, capital has always favored only those entrepreneurs with overseas experience, such as Zhang Chaoyang and Li Yanhong.

Because they have experienced the waves of the Internet abroad, imitating their operating model is also more handy.

But Zhou Hongyi has never been an imitator, and the Chinese online mode he created is also the only one in the world.

At the beginning of his business, he also experienced difficulties in financing, but he has always been lucky.

He never went to school, but he got investment from Wall Street. He didn't imitate anyone, but he broke into a world by himself.

Now, even more so.

Standing in front of the Yahoo office building in Silicon Valley, Zhou Hongyi was very emotional.

His mood was very different from the previous months.

The building with a playful LOGO not far away is still like a beast, but Zhou Hongyi's heart is no longer in awe.

Walking into the Yahoo office building, Zhou Hongyi whispered her name to the hostess at the front desk.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Yang has instructed you to meet him directly when you arrive. Please come with me."

Looking at the bright smile of the blonde beauty at the front desk, Zhou Hongyi felt that her whole body felt much more comfortable.

Yahoo and Google are both giants in the Internet industry, but the attitudes of the two companies towards themselves are vastly different, and it is this difference that makes Zhou Hongyi feel a little bit of identification with Yahoo. .

The lady at the front desk brought Zhou Hongyi to Yang Jieyuan's office.

If Lei Jun was a super idol in Zhongguancun ten years ago, and Zhang Chaoyang was the wave of the Chinese Internet, then these people are not worth mentioning in front of Yang Jieyuan.

Jerry Yang was born on November 8, 1968 in Taipei, a treasure island in China. It only took him four years to enter Stanford University with honors in 1990. He obtained a bachelor's and a master's degree and met David Filo.

Jerry Yang and David Filo co-founded Yahoo Internet Navigation Guide in April 1994, and incorporated Yahoo Inc. in March the following year.

In the first quarter of 1996, Yahoo had more than twice as many visits per day as its competitors. By the end of 1997, the average daily number of visits reached more than 90 million.

You must know that at this time, Huaxia Internet has just started.

But Jerry Yang was not satisfied. He built Yahoo into a website with a group of loyal readers like Time magazine, and achieved great success. "

As Yahoo became the darling of Wall Street, Yang's fortune also rose.

In 1998, "Forbes" magazine launched the top 100 high-tech billionaires. Jerry Yang jumped to the 16th place with a fortune of US$1 billion, surpassing Wang Jialian, the CEO of Guanqun, to become the richest Chinese in high-tech.

But this is just the starting point, Yahoo quickly completed the transition from inexperienced to mature in the following.

As Yahoo's influence has grown, its expansion has never stopped.

Globally, Yahoo has a presence and great success in many places.

Yang Jieyuan, while reaping huge wealth, ignited the fire of the Internet in China.

It is no exaggeration to say that the current three major portal giants of China Internet are all established on the basis of imitating Yahoo.

Because of Yang Zhiyuan's identity as a Chinese, he has become the object of worship of countless people in the Chinese Internet industry, and Zhou Hongyi is one of them.

Standing in front of Yang Jieyuan's office, Zhou Hongyi straightened his tie.

"Please come in." Hearing the knock on the door of the beautiful woman at the front desk, a warm voice came from Yang Jieyuan's office.

The secretary smiled at Zhou Hongyi, then pushed open the door.

Yang Jieyuan was processing some official documents, when he saw Zhou Hongyi coming in, he put down his work and stood up quickly.

"Xiao Zhou, right?" Yang Zhiyuan said in Chinese.

Zhou Hongyi was stunned.

In China, everyone called him Lao Zhou, and Yang Zhiyuan's name made him a little uncomfortable.

However, in front of the other party, regardless of his seniority or age, he was indeed a junior, so Yang Zhiyuan was right to call him that.

"Hello, Mr. Yang." Feeling the intimacy emanating from Yang Jieyuan, Zhou Hongyi hurriedly bowed.

"Don't be restrained, sit down." Yang Zhiyuan smiled and brought Zhou Hongyi to the sofa and sat down.

"I only have coffee here. I wonder if you are used to drinking it?" Yang Zhiyuan asked gently.

"I'm used to drinking, I'm used to drinking." Zhou Hongyi said quickly.

Back then, in the coffee shop not far away, Zhou Hongyi could drink cold coffee, so this cup of hot coffee would be no problem.

Yang Jieyuan handed the brewed coffee to Zhou Hongyi, and asked with a smile, "Have you seen the email I sent you a few days ago."

Zhou Hongyi stood up and took the cup that Yang Zhiyuan handed over, and nodded quickly.

Yang Zhiyuan looked at Zhou Hongyi's restrained appearance and smiled slightly.

"Actually, Yahoo has always been very concerned about 3721." Yang Zhiyuan looked at Zhou Hongyi and continued: "Yahoo Huaxia has been unable to make progress in the domestic market. I think these reasons should be due to incompatibility, so we It has also considered acquiring some small local Internet companies.”

Zhou Hongyi raised her head slightly, is this why you looked for Lin Feng and Li Yanhong in the first place?

Yang Jieyuan said openly and honestly: "Actually, I looked for 168 and Baidu before I looked for you."

"Then why didn't this happen?" Zhou Hongyi asked in a low voice.

But then, Lao Zhou felt that what he said was nonsense. Didn't Lin Feng and Li Yanhong reject Yang Zhiyuan himself?

Thinking of this~www.novelbuddy.com~ Zhou Hongyi smiled awkwardly.

Yang Jieyuan laughed at himself and said, "They rejected me."

Zhou Hongyi paused, he did not expect Yang Jieyuan to be so frank.

"But I think it's a good thing for Yahoo."

Zhou Hongyi looked at Yang Zhiyuan suspiciously, he didn't understand why the other party said that.

"Baidu and Yisou can gain a firm foothold in China, relying on nothing more than technology and capital. Do you think Yahoo will lack these things?"

Zhou Hongyi was stunned for a moment, thinking that this was indeed the case.

Baidu's proud search technology is probably not worth mentioning in front of Yahoo, and the financial advantage of 168 is like a joke in front of Yahoo, and the two sides are not of the same magnitude.

Yang Zhiyuan looked at Zhou Hongyi and said seriously: "We need a complete channel market, and more importantly, a leader with rich local combat experience, and you just have all of these."
