Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

"Hello, ordering." Zuo Li waved to the waiter, and then he ordered two steaks for himself and a cup of pure black coffee with nothing added. Oh, and of course a large salad without adding anything.

Dressed vegetable salad.

"This is said to be the most private Western restaurant in the entire Silicon Valley, so there is no need to be restrained. You know, although I know it is somewhat rude to eat in front of a lady, but I just finished a training before I came here. I really

I'm just too hungry." Zuo Li said after finishing his order and returning the menu to the waiter.

When he returns to the United States, he needs to reserve energy for the next competition, so even though he is here for business, he still brings his own physical coach.

"No, no, no, please feel free to do it. After all, a restaurant is a place to eat." Xue Li also finished ordering. Unlike Zuo Li, she only ordered a salad. After all, she didn't really come to eat.

At the same time, she watched with interest as Zuo Li consumed two steaks, a large salad and a cup of coffee in front of her.

"Cool~~" Seeing Zuo Li eating, Xue Li couldn't help but admire, and she actually felt hungry, which was rare in her daily life.

"Huh, I'm alive." Zuo Li put down his coffee cup.

"If it's not enough, you can order another one." Xue Li also finished her salad and looked at Zuo Li's unfinished expression. Xue Li said in a funny way.

"Tsk, the taste is so-so, let's forget it..." Zuo Li shook his head. This restaurant really focuses on privacy, because the food is really average.

Xue Li finally couldn't help covering her mouth and burst into laughter. This guy actually had plans to get another one. Is he really the boss and founder of so many companies?

Seeing Zuo Li looking over, Xue Li hurriedly sat upright and returned to the intellectual woman she once was: "Ahem, I'm sorry, I thought of something funny."

Zuo Li: "..."

It turns out that Internet tycoons can also tell lies with open eyes.

"Well, I think you must be wondering why the founder of ins is a foodie. You may even wonder if I created this company. Isn't it unreliable?"

"It's a pity...it is."

"And, not only that, I also hope that you can choose to join our company and become one of us, because even if it is not reliable, you have to experience it yourself to know, you are right."

Contrary to memory, Sydney Sandberg only resigned from Google at the beginning of this year and has not accepted Zuckerberg's invitation to join Facebook.

The key to this is of course that since 2008, Zuo Li and Instagram have been sending invitations to Sydney Sandberg, hoping that she would join Instagram.

Last year, although Xue Li had the idea of ​​changing her career path and felt that Facebook would have a better future, Instagram did influence her choice to some extent.

Although Xueli feels that compared to the mature Facebook, Instagram is just a "child", the growth rate of this "child" is really beyond her expectation.

In just one year, the number of ins users exceeded 100 million, making it the most popular social media on the market. It has also successfully achieved profitability. This speed is eye-catching.

The most important thing is that it has a huge influence among teenagers. Sydney knows what this means, because controlling the next generation means controlling the future.

Therefore, the potential of ins is far beyond what is seen so far.

This made Sydney reluctant to agree to Zuckerberg's invitation because she was a little hesitant. Experience told her that joining Facebook might be the best choice, but reason told her that if she missed out on ins, she might regret it.

Therefore, she has not resigned yet, just waiting for the next development or sincerity of the two.

The Facebook side didn’t mention it, the conditions were the same as in the previous life, but the Instagram side proposed that their boss behind the scenes meet with her in person to discuss the decision.

So she came and saw another side of Zuo Li.

Completely different from other Internet giants, or those senior officials and bosses, Zuo Li does not always pretend to be aloof. On the contrary, Xue Li feels that he is real enough, which is rare in the business world.

However, this is not enough to affect Xue Li's decision. Since it is a development company, of course, the company's issues must be discussed. The most important thing is her rights and sufficient interests.

"So, what will I get if I join?" Xue Li didn't hide it and directly raised this most critical question.

"Profits are, of course, the most important thing. I believe you can see our development. Geerle is my best employee and supervisor. He will be responsible for technical matters in the future, and you will be responsible for the entire company's advertising business.

people"

"No one can influence your decision except me!"

"Moreover, Geerle took 5% of the original shares, and you also got 5%, and a salary of 5 million. Is this kind of benefit enough?" Zuo Li threw out his chips.

"5%..." Xue Li touched her chin. This number was indeed very high. At least Facebook couldn't provide it. And if ins was successfully listed in the future, she could roughly guess how much it would be.

If it goes well, she will become a billionaire.

To be honest, she was moved.

"But..." Zuo Li suddenly changed the subject: "I also want to know what you will bring to us if you come to our company."

"Is this a test?" Xue Li asked.

"Maybe, after all, what I'm looking for is someone who can lead Instagram to create glory, so I believe you can understand," Zuo Li said.

"It's refreshing. I like this kind of test, and, believe me, I have enough confidence to lead this company." When talking about work, Xue Li became more confident.

"Then, let's talk about ins' current business and my thoughts first."

…

From after lunch to dinner time, the two have been discussing how the company will develop in the future.

Xue Li marveled at Zuo Li's foresight and endless ideas, while Zuo Li lamented that people are like trees, and there are indeed no deceitful people under the great reputation.

When she left, Xue Li already regarded herself as a member of the ins company.

The next day, both parties signed the newly drafted contract. Sydney Sandberg, this female business elite, officially became the chief operating officer of ins company, responsible for all basic business.

And Gerle continued to manage his own technical department as he wished.

The first division of labor for ins was completed, and the first thing Xue Li did when he took office was to recruit from all over the world. This time, ins recruited 300 employees at once to enrich 5 new departments.

On July 28, the news that Sydney Sandberg joined Instagram became known to everyone. The Internet industry exclaimed that this time, the wolf is really coming.

Zuckerberg was furious in the office and threatened to make Zuo Li and Instagram look good this time!

This time Zuo Li cut off his beard, he gave Facebook a hard blow.

But Zuo Li didn't care. Shopping malls are like battlefields. You don't need to be soft when you can compete with competitors.

Zuo Li, who stayed here for three days and witnessed the ins sailing, returned to New York with satisfaction. At this moment, all the summer work that had nothing to do with basketball was basically completed.

It's time to get back to work and fight for next season.
