Entertainment: Starting With A Net Worth Of One Trillion, I Chose To Lie Flat

The word "godfather" becomes particularly domineering once it is given the prefix of a certain industry.

For example, a certain godfather sounds very powerful.

At this moment, when Wang Sicong heard that Chen Mo was called the godfather of the Internet, he was stunned.

"Mr. Zhang, are you kidding me?"

Wang Sicong subconsciously looked at Zhang Xiaolong and asked.

But then he shook his head.

obviously.

Zhang Xiaolong would not use such jokes to amuse himself for no reason.

as expected.

Ma Huateng on the side heard this and said: "He's not kidding. Don't you know? Your teacher invested in many domestic Internet companies back then. Without his initiative, more than half of our current domestic Internet companies may not be the same." It can start."

hiss!

Hearing what Ma Huateng said, Wang Sicong suddenly took a breath of air.

For Ma Huateng, who has always been extremely calm, to say this, it seems that Chen Mo has really done a lot.

Chen Mo was very calm. He waved his hands and said, "You two, don't talk nonsense about godfather and not godfather. I am a serious businessman."

"You can't say that."

Zhang Xiaolong on the side said: "If nothing else, without you, how would Zhang Chaoyang have the money to run Sohu?"

? ? ? ?

? ? ? ?

Wang Sicong was stunned immediately.

Information about Zhang Chaoyang and Sohu quickly emerged in his mind.

Zhang Chaoyang graduated from the Physics Department of Qinghua University, and later became a publicly funded international student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States, and eventually received a doctorate.

But after graduation, he did not engage in work in the field of physics. Instead, he developed a strong interest in the Internet after being exposed to the Internet in the United States.

After he returned to China in 1996, he determined that the development prospects of the domestic Internet industry were good, so he returned to the United States and began to look for investment. Finally, he received the first investment of US$500,000 and returned to China to found Sohu.

After that, it has developed all the way to the present, and it is already the number one portal website in China.

Could it be said that this has something to do with Chen Mo?

Thinking of this, Wang Sicong looked at Chen Mo with curiosity on his face.

Chen Mo shrugged: "Actually, it's nothing. It's just watching him go around Wall Street begging grandpa and grandma to find investment. It's a bit too pitiful. After all, we are all descendants of the Yellow Emperor, so I helped him."

"yes."

Ma Huateng said quietly from the side: "I just gave him half a million dollars and asked him to come back and start a business. I asked you to borrow half a million yuan, but you didn't lend me any."

"nonsense!"

Chen Mo said angrily: "You want to sell the penguin, it's weird if I can lend it to you."

"Ahem!"

Ma Huateng was immediately embarrassed when Chen Mo complained about it.

Seeing Wang Sicong's confused look, Zhang Xiaolong on the side explained: "You don't know, Penguin's development was not good at the beginning. Five of the six founders of the company were not confident. Only your master was confident, even though he was abroad. , but sent us an email every day to encourage us to stick to it, and even subsidized the company’s expenses from his own pocket.”

"yes."

After hearing Zhang Xiaolong's words, Ma Huateng recalled those days and said with a smile: "I remember that at that time we thought very simply. Even if we could sell the company for two to three million, it would not be considered a loss."

"Two or three million?"

Wang Sicong felt bad after hearing what Ma Huateng said.

Penguin Group is now listed on Hong Kong Island. Although it has experienced troughs before, its market value has skyrocketed and has reached a market value of more than 200 billion Hong Kong dollars.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is absolutely jaw-dropping.

But who would have thought that the goals of the founders back then were only 3 million yuan.

This is really unimaginable!

"what is this."

Chen Mo saw Ma Huateng's look and smiled and said, "pony, do you still remember that on New Year's Eve in 1999, the company had no customer service, and you pitifully pretended to be a customer service girl in the company's computer room."

"Ahem..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Huateng coughed and his face turned red.

Zhang Xiaolong on the side was already laughing. It was obvious that what Chen Mo said was the truth.

As for Wang Sicong, he blinked and suddenly felt that he had heard something remarkable.

wrong,

This should be regarded as Ma Huateng’s biggest dark history in his life!
