Giant of the times

Tina Gates then launched an acquisition offer to Web Game Workshop on behalf of Facebook, offering to acquire the other party entirely for US$30 million.

Unexpectedly, this acquisition was extremely easy, but the other party stated that the web game workshop had the right to independently develop the game.

As a result, within three days, Facebook completed the acquisition of Web Game Workshop.

On the fourth day, Facebook and Web Game Workshop jointly held a press conference.

This time, William, Tina and the CEO of the Web Game Workshop appeared at the press conference. This is William and Tina's first media appearance as founders of Facebook.

In William's view, Facebook has succeeded. He has proven his strength and can appear in front of the media. At this time, people only pay attention to Facebook, and no one pays attention to the FaceToFace website anymore.

On the morning of June 5th, it was as clear as blue.

The entrance to Facebook's corporate headquarters is bustling with activity.

When William and Tina appeared at the press conference, everyone was surprised.

When William walked on stage and introduced himself as the founder of Facebook, everyone was stunned.

“Chronos Li’s son is actually the founder of Facebook????”

"Sure enough, the tiger father has no dog sons!"

At this moment, the flash lights in the audience kept flashing. William smiled slightly, faced the camera, and said loudly: "Welcome to attend Facebook's press conference. Today I will announce two things. The first thing is that Facebook denounces It spent a huge investment of 30 million US dollars to fully acquire the game development company Browser Game Workshop of "Happy Farm"!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar in the audience. Obviously, everyone is very surprised that Facebook acquired Web Game Workshop, but at the same time, it is understandable that "Farm Farm" is so popular and it will be of great help to Facebook.

William continued: "Everyone, please be quiet. The second thing I want to say is that from today on, Facebook will no longer restrict whether registered users are college students or high school students. Facebook will be open to netizens around the world!!!"

This news is even more shocking than the previous news.

There are many people in the audience who are engaged in the Internet industry and know very well what it means to develop Facebook to netizens around the world! This means that the number of Facebook users will increase dramatically, and Facebook will become one of the Internet giants!

…

…

After Facebook's press conference, the content of the press conference immediately spread wildly on Weibo and Facebook.

Immediately afterwards, tens of thousands of netizens began to register Facebook accounts.

Celebrities have already experienced the benefits of the Internet on Weibo before. Now that a very popular SNS social networking site has appeared, these celebrities are naturally rushing to join.

"Farm" is one of Facebook's most popular products, and celebrities have begun to play "Farm" instead of doing their regular jobs.

Stephen Chow: "There was once a ripe vegetable placed in front of me but I didn't pick it up. I regretted it until it was stolen. The most painful thing in the world is this. If God can give me another chance, I will Say three words to that food thief: 'Go to hell!'"

Jay Chou: "Oh, not bad, I stole a lot!"

…

Fans couldn't help but be surprised to see so many celebrities having so much fun.

"Let me go, celebrities really know how to play!!!"

"Haha, I'll steal their food at night!"

…

At this moment, Mark Zuckerberg felt very sad and helpless. When he started his business, he met Chronos Li's son. He was extremely unlucky! The failure of FaceToFace was not due to war, but because the competitors were too powerful!

"Zuckerberg, I'm afraid FaceToFace won't be able to continue operating. Think about the transformation!" After a while, an executive director of DFJ called and said.

"Transformation? How to transform?" Mark Zuckerberg felt bitter in his heart.

But right now, it seems that there is only one way to go: transformation. Otherwise, if it continues to develop like this, FaceToFace will definitely go bankrupt!

After thinking about it all night, Mark Zuckerberg still couldn't come up with any good ideas. He turned on his computer and browsed the news boredly, trying to find some inspiration.

"Skype Internet call?!"

Suddenly, Mark Zuckerberg thought of an idea, his eyes glowed with a strange look, and he murmured: "Maybe this idea can work!!! FaceToFace can be transformed into a video and voice Internet phone software, with the requirements for IM functions, such as video chat, multi-person voice conferencing, multi-person chat, file transfer, text chat, etc. It can also have high-definition voice conversations with other users, and can also make domestic and international calls, whether it is a landline or a mobile phone. Make calls, and can realize call transfer, text message sending and other functions!!!”

Mark Zuckerberg suddenly became excited and quickly called Norman Virginia, CEO of DFJ.

"Oh, damn, it's only 4:1 in the morning. Mark Zuckerberg, you better have good news to tell me!" Norman Virginia cursed. The failure of FaceToFace will cost Norman Virginia more than half of it. All the responsibility for this was put on Mark Zuckerberg, and I was very dissatisfied with him.

Mark Zuckerberg doesn't care about Norman Virginia's attitude, as long as DFJ can continue to invest in FaceToFace.

"Mr. Virginia, I have thought about how FaceToFace should transform!"

When Norman Virginia heard this, her spirits were shaken, and she was half asleep. She quickly asked: "How to transform?!"

"FaceToFace can be transformed into a video and voice Internet phone software..." Mark Zuckerberg immediately began to introduce the development direction of the transformation to Norman Virginia in detail.

After hearing this, Norman Virginia pondered carefully for a long time, and finally said: "Okay! Then I will give you another chance, and I will convince the board of directors of DFJ to continue to support FaceToFace!"

Mark Zuckerberg was overjoyed and said: "Thank you, Mr. Virginia, then I will hang up the phone and won't disturb your sleep!"

"Um."

…

Li Zetian didn't know that FaceToFace had decided to transform into a product similar to Skype, which would make Li Zetian very depressed. As Michael Powell, Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, said, “When I downloaded Skype, I realized that the era of traditional communication, where you can use it to call anyone for free and with excellent call quality, is over. End. The world will inevitably change."

The Sprint telecommunications company under the name of Li Zetian is exactly the representative of the "traditional communication era" and makes money by collecting phone bills!

But no matter what, Internet telephony is the general trend. In the future, many people will use data to send voice and video calls. This will cause countless telecommunications companies to decline in revenue and suffer heavy losses. Sprint can only adapt to the development of the times and make adjustments.

The duel between Facebook and FaceToFace has basically settled, and Li Zetian is relieved a lot. After all, Facebook is still very important.

At the end of this month, "World of Warcraft" was officially released in China.

Ma Huateng called to tell Li Zetian, but at the same time another bad news came.
