Rebirth starts with small money

Chapter 374 Do you want to buy Fujixun?

"Brother Ma~ I was sorry before."

In the community where Chen Li rented, when Chen Li sent Ma Xiaoyun, Cai Yixin and Zhou Hongyi away, he planned to apologize to Ma Xiaoyun.

Because when we were at the wine table before, in order to prevent Ma Xiaoyun and Ma Xiaoteng from reaching a certain kind of deal, Chen Li spoke a little seriously.

Although the things he said~ are actually quite reasonable, but in terms of his relationship with Ma Xiaoyun, even when explaining the crucial relationship, generally speaking, he wouldn't say so seriously.

At that time, in order to stop the second horse, Chen Li was almost blaming Ma Xiaoyun.

So after avoiding Ma Xiaoteng and Zeng Lijing, Chen Li decided to speak out. After all, he and Ma Xiaoyun are friends now, and his previous approach of accusing Ma Xiaoyun seemed a bit disrespectful to Ma Xiaoyun.

If this Ma Xiaoyun was a careless person, he would probably have a rift with Chen Li because of this!

"It's okay, it's okay~!"

"Actually, what you said just now, Mr. Chen, is quite right!"

"Although I was actually... Mr. Chen, what is the word you said?"

"Yeah! Actually, I was talking about it at the time, but now that I think about it, it's really inappropriate."

"And just as you said, Mr. Chen, it was indeed my mistake to directly talk to people about this without telling you and Lao Zhou."

"Mr. Chen~Lao Zhou~I will learn from the lesson in the future and try not to make such mistakes again."

"Old Cai~ From now on, you should also keep an eye on me."

Ma Xiaoyun's attitude is very sincere, he is actually very aware of his problems.

But since the fault is a fault, it means that it is not easy to restrain it.

Take the situation just now as an example. Strictly speaking, the topics he talked with Ma Xiaoteng were not very rigorous.

But he really couldn't control it, and because he drank some wine just now, he subconsciously started talking to the other party.

In fact, there is another problem, that is, Ma Xiaoyun's visit this time was invited by Chen Li.

He subconsciously thought that since Chen Li invited him, it meant that Chen Li might be interested in Ma Xiaoteng's Tengxun.

He thought Chen Li called him here because he wanted to use his communication skills to bargain with the other party.

This kind of tacit understanding that Ma Xiaoyun thought~ caused him to make a wrong judgment on the banquet tonight.

It was only later that Ma Xiaoyun figured it out. If Chen Li was really interested in Fuji Xun, he would definitely have explained it to him on the phone before.

To put it bluntly~ this can be regarded as a certain deviation in the tacit understanding between Ma Xiaoyun and Chen Li.

But generally speaking, this does not affect the "friendship" between Chen Li and Ma Xiaoyun.

The reason is very simple. Most of the "friendship" between Chen Li and Ma Xiaoyun is actually linked by interests.

It's not that the friendship between Chen Li and Ma Xiaoyun is not a real friendship, but that the conflict of interests between the two of them accounts for more of it.

Some people may think that the "friendship" generated by interests will be unreliable, but in fact ~ most of the time, the relationship between interests is more reliable than feelings.

Of course~ the premise is that this interest is enough to maintain this relationship.

Just like the current Chen Li and Ma Xiaoyun, if you really want to say that the two are good friends, it would be somewhat false.

The current relationship between the two of them is at best a friend, but more often than not a partner.

Chen Li needed someone like Ma Xiaoyun to help him with many things!

And Ma Xiaoyun also needs someone like Chen Li to provide him with the "help" he needs!
In the context of the relationship between the two, as long as the mutual interest relationship is not broken, there will be no problems between the two because of Chen Li's little accusation.

Unless one day ~ Chen Li no longer needs Ma Xiaoyun to help him deal with those things, and Ma Xiaoyun no longer needs Chen Li to help him, then the relationship between the two will return to the most primitive "friendship".

It's just that Chen Li was not very optimistic about how reliable the "friendship" was at that time.

After all, Ma Xiaoyun is not Li Yuan, talking about friendship is somewhat nonsense.

But~ also because of this conflict of interests, Ma Xiaoyun now naturally holds a "positive" attitude towards Chen Li.

And under this premise, as long as Chen Li doesn't point at Ma Xiaoyun's nose and scold, or doesn't touch Ma Xiaoyun's "bottom line", the relationship between the two will be fine in a short period of time.

Not to mention that Chen Li took the initiative to apologize at this moment, then Ma Xiaoyun would naturally take the "face" that Chen Li handed over.

But regardless of Chen Li's previous accusations and current apology, the matter itself still made Ma Xiaoyun a little puzzled.

"But having said that, Mr. Chen~ What kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?"

"To tell you the truth~ I thought at first you called me over tonight because you were planning to buy Fujixun!"

"I saw that kid Ma Xiaoteng just now, but he was actually talking to the lion."

"What 500 million~ is pure nonsense."

"I checked the bottom just now. I estimate that it cost 200 million. That kid should be able to sell it."

"I'm thinking. If this OICQ is half as successful as that guy Ma Xiaoteng said, the 200 million should not be a loss."

"Anyway, it's only 200 million. I think it's still possible to do it!"

Don't look at Ma Xiaoyun's mouthful of 200 million now seems very easy, but in Chen Li's view, this is actually a bit ironic!
If we compare the timeline of this time and space with Chen Li's previous life, in fact, at the end of May of 200, [-] million was definitely considered a lot of money for Ma Xiaoyun at that time.

Many people know that Ma Xiaoyun received 500 million US dollars in his first financing in his previous life, and later even relied on his personal charm to impress Softbank's Masayoshi Son within a few minutes, and received an investment of more than 2000 million US dollars.

But how many people know how many times Ma Xiaoyun's Ali Baba failed before he got the first financing?
Ali Baba's venture capital is only 50 yuan, which is not even a splash in the Internet industry.

So. Not long after Ahri Baba was founded, Ma Xiaoyun started Ahri Baba's financing.

In his previous life, Chen Li had read a report, saying that Ma Xiaoyun had run into a wall dozens of times in terms of financing.

At that time, Ma Xiaoyun was talking about his career with people, and they thought he was a liar, and he talked about profits with them~ but he was regarded as a pyramid scheme.

Every time Ma Xiaoyun was rejected, after returning home, he would tell his team that he was the one who rejected that VC.

At that time, Ma Xiaoyun experienced dozens of failures, but each time, he worked hard to "warm" his team.

Because he knew very well that if he couldn't warm up his team, then the team would definitely be "frozen".

Until later~Cai Lixin joined, because of his early work experience, Cai Lixin helped to bring in the first financing of 500 million US dollars.

A lot of people said that if it wasn't for Cai Lixin's joining, Ari Baba might not be able to make it so big in the future.

There is nothing wrong with this sentence!
But if it weren't for Ma Xiaoyun, Ali Baba's Arhat team would probably have disbanded long ago.

At the very least~ If Chen Li and Ma Xiaoyun were switched, Chen Li felt that it would be impossible for him to have the courage to seek financing after experiencing dozens of failures.

To put it bluntly, Chen Li should not have insisted on the number of dozens of times.

Chen Li estimated that he could hold on to ten times or more at most, but it was absolutely impossible to exceed twenty times.

This is already a standard that Chen Li set for himself after he infinitely improved his psychological endurance.

This also means that if Chen Li was placed in the position of Ma Xiaoyun in his previous life, he would not be able to succeed.

Even though e-commerce definitely belonged to the "outlet" of the Internet at that time, Chen Li still felt that he should not be able to fly.

So. To be honest~ 20 years later, among the big businessmen in China, one will count as one. In fact, none of them is simple.

The same principle can also be applied to Zhou Hongyi.

This buddy was scolded bloody on the Internet in later generations, but to be honest, if you change to Zhou Hongyi's position at that time, it's hard to say whether there will be a company like Qishi 20 in 350 years.

Chen Li still remembered that he had seen some information about the company Qishi 350 in his previous life. This Internet security company has a bad reputation in the eyes of ordinary people, but it is actually "famous" in the industry.

In particular, the security team of Qilion 350 enjoys a high reputation even in the world.

So ~ even Zhou Hongyi, whose reputation is almost stinky, is actually not within the reach of ordinary people.

Regardless of whether it is Ma Xiaoyun or Zhou Hongyi, they have actually experienced many setbacks in the early stages of their business.

But that was the previous life!

And now, whether it is Ma Xiaoyun or Zhou Hongyi, their life trajectories have undergone tremendous changes because of the appearance of a man.

In the previous life, Ma Xiaoyun failed 37 times in financing. It is said that Ari Baba couldn't even pay the employee's monthly salary of 500 yuan.

But now Ma Xiaoyun. After following Chen Li to make a fortune on the Y200K patch, he no longer thinks highly of funds at the level of [-] million.

In fact, this has a lot to do with Chen Li, not just because Chen Li made a fortune with Ma Xiaoyun.

The bigger reason is Chen Li's donation of US$5000 million to Project Hope.

For 5000 million US dollars, Chen Li donated as soon as he said he would donate, and Ma Xiaoyun later followed suit with 200 million US dollars.

And it's precisely because Ma Xiaoyun spent the 200 million US dollars. This guy really doesn't feel much about the 200 million Huaxia coins now.

You know, the conversion of 200 million Huaxia coins into US dollars is even less than 25 US dollars.

And just a few days ago, Ma Xiaoyun directly donated 200 million US dollars.

With this comparison, Ma Xiaoyun naturally felt differently about the 200 million Huaxia coins.

To put it bluntly ~ because of Chen Li's appearance, Ali Baba and Ma Xiaoyun, who should have been under financial pressure, have become rich and powerful at the end of May of [-].

Coupled with the influence of Chen Li, Ma Xiaoyun got a lot of "plans" for the development of Internet companies from Chen Li!
Such as throwing money!

Yes~ When Chen Li and Ma Xiaoyun talked about Internet business operations, Chen Li would subconsciously tell Ma Xiaoyun the experience of some Internet companies in later generations.

As for Chen Li, who was reborn, the basic operation of Internet companies he is familiar with is probably throwing away money.

In later generations ~ almost all Internet companies ~ will carry out certain "money-throwing" behaviors in the early development process.

And the purpose of these money-throwing behaviors is to attract more user bases.

As long as there is a sufficient user base ~ Internet companies can raise more funds, and then continue to spend money, continue to attract more user bases, and then continue to raise funds and continue to spend money
And this process is not only attracting more users, but also cultivating the corresponding market.

Finally ~ when the market is mature, this Internet company can start to cut leeks.

On the premise of a huge user base, even if a large part of the customer base is lost, the part of the remaining users~ is enough for Internet companies to start making profits.

It doesn't even matter if it is not profitable, because at this time, the company can go public.

Then through the listing ~ make another sum of money, and then find a suitable time to exit successfully.

Although doing so may lead to some infamy~ but in the face of enough interests, that little infamy is really insignificant.

And the so-called "infamy" is actually just a guide to public opinion.

The big deal is to donate a large sum of money that is enough to change the direction of public opinion, and it will be enough to turn those "infamy" into praise.

Then start a business again ~ burn money ~ again.
Okay~ This may seem ridiculous, but it is indeed reality.

When Chen Li talked about these things with Ma Xiaoyun, he actually had some emotions.

These emotions are the emotions of ordinary people in the previous life, and the emotions produced by those unscrupulous businessmen.

But the same thing, heard in Ma Xiaoyun's ears, had an impact in another aspect.

It turns out that the user base is very important ~ traffic is very important!At the same time ~ willing to spend money is also very effective!

In the end ~ Ma Xiaoyun came to a conclusion ~ that is the Internet ~ really amazing!
And at this moment~ Ma Xiaoyun learned that Fujixun's OICQ was improving at a seemingly outrageous speed, and he subconsciously felt that the acquisition of Fujixun was a tricky thing.

To put it bluntly ~ because of Chen Li's influence, Ma Xiaoyun's understanding of the Internet industry at this moment definitely exceeds the time limit of [-].

Ma Xiaoyun's current understanding of the Internet is absolutely advanced, and it can even be said to be cross-generational.

After all, next year is the year 2000, which also means that we are about to enter a new century, so there is nothing wrong with saying "cross-era".

And after possessing such advanced cognition, Ma Xiaoyun can easily discover the meaning of Fujixun and OICQ.

As long as OICQ can maintain or even continue to improve its development speed, then Fujixun is definitely a potential Internet company.

Once the user base of Fujixun and OICQ reaches a certain amount, it will definitely be a great thing for Red Pony Technology Co., Ltd., which is in urgent need of traffic and user base.

So Ma Xiaoyun wanted to try again, he tried to discuss with Chen Li, he really wanted to buy Fujixun!

"Uh!"

Chen Li looked at the serious Ma Xiaoyun in front of him, and suddenly felt helpless!
After listening to Ma Xiaoyun's narration, he suddenly discovered that
If it is possible to acquire OICQ, it will be beneficial to OICQ itself, Red Pony Technology Co., Ltd., and even Ma Xiaoyun and Chen Li.

So. Do you want to acquire Fujixun?

At this moment~ Chen Li was also tempted suddenly!
