rebirth from small pockets

Chapter 486 Ma Xiaoyun is acting like a fool

"I have no classes in the afternoon, but there is a professor's lecture today, and I want to go and listen to it."

"After listening to the lecture, I will take the bus back by myself, and you won't have to pick me up."

At the north gate of Yan University, Liu Qingqing waved her hand at Chen Li after getting off Chen Li's Cherokee.

"I think I'd better buy you a car!"

"This will be more convenient for you."

"Anyway, I bought a house here and there is a parking space."

Chen Li once again mentioned buying a car for Miss Liu. He had mentioned this before, but Miss Liu refused.

Girls these days are like this. If Chen Li wanted to buy Liu Qingqing some clothes, a set of cosmetics, etc., Liu Qingqing would naturally not refuse.

But when it comes to buying a car or a house, it's impossible for Miss Liu to agree.

No~ To be precise, this girl was directly frightened by Chen Li's proposal.

This is different from many girls later. At that time, girls simply wished that their boyfriends could buy them houses and cars.

But when Liu Qingqing heard that Chen Li wanted to give her a car, the girl immediately refused.

Of course, this actually has certain reasons of the times and concepts.

After all, these days, whether it is a house or a car, they all have different meanings.

Even if the relationship between Chen Li and Liu Qingqing is a couple, a couple and a couple are different.

Unless Liu Qingqing and Chen Li are married now, it is impossible for Liu Qingqing's tutor to accept such an expensive gift from Chen Li.

Sure enough~ Chen Li's proposal again was rejected by Miss Liu.

"No need~ I'll just take the bus. I'm not in a hurry anyway."

"And I think it's actually very convenient whether you take the bus or take a taxi."

"Okay~ You drive carefully, I'm going to class!"

Making a face at Chen Li, Miss Liu closed the door of the Cherokee and walked towards the school.

Chen Li shook his head. He didn't expect that he couldn't even send a car away, so this matter was caused by trouble.

However, Chen Li didn't care too much about this matter. In fact, as Liu Qingqing said, it is actually quite convenient to take the bus or take a taxi.

After all, Liu Qingqing is a college student now, and there are not many places where she needs to use a car.

In addition, Yanjing is a big city. Even in 1999, this city often had traffic jams.

If he didn't have to take Liu Qingqing to and from school, Chen Li would usually go out during the morning and evening rush hours.

Nowadays, Chen Li’s daily routine most of the time is to go out at 10 a.m. and come home from get off work at 4 p.m.

Of course, in case of unexpected circumstances, other arrangements will naturally need to be made.

Anyway, living in a big city like Yanjing, traveling is still a bit troublesome.

Chen Li had made appointments several times before, and he made arrangements according to the agreed time, and even reserved a certain amount of time each time, but in the end, he was still late.

This is very helpless, but it is very realistic. After all, no one can predict such things as traffic jams.

After watching Liu Qingqing enter the north gate of Yanda, Chen Li drove away. His destination was actually not far from Yanda, in Zhongguancun.

After parking the car in the parking lot of the building, Chen Li walked into the building carrying his backpack.

Today, because he was sending Liu Qingqing to school, Chen Li ran into the rush hour.

Looking at the elevator that could no longer accommodate people, Chen Li felt a little headache.

So Chen Li simply turned around and left the building, found a coffee shop nearby, and ordered a pot of tea.

Selling tea in coffee shops is actually a Chinese characteristic. After all, China’s tea culture has a long history.

After all, coffee is an imported product, but it is also a typical representative of Western cultural traditions.

In China, coffee shops are closely related to business development to a certain extent.

Therefore, there are always various cafes near commercial buildings.

But China’s tea culture is too deeply rooted, so when the Western coffee culture comes to China, it also needs to know how to adapt.

Therefore, drinking tea in a coffee shop is not something surprising. Even the tea in the coffee shop is not bad.

It's really not bad. Even though Chen Li doesn't know much about tea, he can still tell the difference between "good" and "bad" after drinking too much.

After taking a sip of tea, Chen Li took out his laptop from his backpack and opened a document inside.

This document ~ is the current domestic information related to the high-tech computer and Internet industries that Song Xiaolan helped him collect.

Although Chen Li is a reborn person, he was just an ordinary netizen in his previous life. He only knows a few well-known companies about the development of the computer and Internet industry.

For example, the three giants of the Internet, and Jingbei Mall ~ Pinxixi, etc.

But even for these companies that later became famous, Chen Li actually didn't know much about their development.

Just like Qiandu among the three giants, Chen Li thought that this company already existed, but in fact there was no such company in China in 1999.

This company was only founded in January 2000. Of course, its founder should have returned in 1999.

However, Chen Li didn't know this information at all. He only remembered that although the establishment of the three subsequent Internet giants was not as early as the first batch of domestic Internet companies, they were also relatively early.

Speaking of which, two of the three Internet giants in the future were influenced by Chen Li.

Needless to say, Ali, which later became the largest e-commerce empire in China, has now been destroyed by Chen Li.

Ma Xiaoyun, who was originally supposed to be an e-commerce business, is currently fighting a bloody battle with other competitors in the Internet security industry.

And the most ridiculous thing is that with the current development momentum of Red Pony Technology, it is estimated that it will be difficult for Ma Xiaoyun to go back to his previous life and lead him to the glorious e-commerce industry.

As for Brother Xiao Ma’s Tengxun, to be honest, Chen Li couldn’t understand it.

At the beginning of the year, Brother Xiao Ma came to Yanjing, trying to find opportunities to raise funds for Tengxun.

In the previous life of Tengxun, it is said that no one was optimistic about it in the early stages of financing. This also caused Tengxun's development to be severely restricted due to financial pressure.

The previous situation has indeed proved this point. No one is optimistic about Tengxun these days.

But after Brother Ma came to Yanjing at the beginning of the year, Ma Xiaoyun suddenly made a bold move to acquire Tengxun. As a result, Tengxun seemed to have embarked on a path that Chen Li could not understand.

As we all know, the reason why Brother Xiaoma didn’t sell Tengxun in his previous life was because the other party’s asking price was too low.

But after Ma Xiaoyun stabbed him, this situation changed.

Although Xiao Ma failed to secure funds from Yanjing in the end, it was precisely because of Ma Xiaoyun's three million quotation that Xiao Ma suddenly gained confidence in his own Tengxun.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this confidence that after returning to Shencheng, Brother Xiao directly met with several other founders of Tengxun for a meeting.

Chen Li didn't know what this meeting said, but he later learned a piece of news. The Five Tigers of Tengxun raised a full million from nowhere.

They plan to continue Tengxun!

This news surprised Chen Li, because what he remembered from Tengxun was that when it was raising financing, these founders had indeed increased their capital.

At that time, Tengxun was developing too fast, which led to a great increase in the company's financial pressure. In the end, the founders were forced to raise a sum of money each in proportion to their shares.

If Chen Li remembers correctly, the amount should still be 500,000!

It is undeniable that the economic conditions of the founders of Tengxun should be pretty good these days.

Well... this is actually nonsense. After all, those who can open a company these days, even if they are a partnership, generally have the same conditions.

But this million Chen Li probably basically wiped out the savings of these few people.

But ~ this is actually not the most important thing.

The most important point is actually the change in concepts of Brother Xiao and others. This is where Chen Li is a little speechless.

Many people in previous lives may not have known that when Tengxun was first founded, it was actually due to a bidding for network paging software for paging stations.

However, the wireless network paging system developed by Tengxun at that time did not win the favor of Party A in the end.

In other words~ At that time, no one else bought the things that Xiao Ma and his gang produced.

But the things have already been built, so it’s impossible to lose them, right? So the last few people bit the bullet and decided to run it themselves.

That’s right~ This thing is the QQ that later became famous!

Of course ~ at the beginning, this thing was called OICQ.

The reason why Chen Li chose this name is that Xiaoma Ge and others wanted to get some exposure from foreign ICQ.

Facts have also proven this. Although the name almost caused Tengxun and Xiaoma Ge to get into a lawsuit, OICQ, a software that was obviously a bit of a blur, was indeed developed.

But in fact, in the era of OICQ, in the eyes of Xiao Ma and others, this thing was actually just an ordinary product.

Since this thing was developed, its ultimate goal is to be sold.

It's just that Party A didn't like it at that time, so Xiao Ma and his gang invested some money to try to operate it themselves. They planned to wait until the operation was completed. Maybe they could sell it at a high price.

But the reality has given a few young people a blow. Although the product is operating very well, it is a product that cannot bring profits.

Do you have a hammer to use?

What makes Xiao Ma and others even more confused is that not only did this product not make any money, but they invested more and more. The most ridiculous thing is that they don't even know how to make money with this product.

Therefore, selling Tencent and OICQ is an imperative choice.

Then~ the domestic Internet industry has just started at this time, and there are not many people who can see unlimited business opportunities from OICQ's rapidly growing number of users.

Um. Well, actually not at all.

Although some people are more interested in OICQ, this is definitely not a reason for them to make a bid that satisfies Xiao Ma and others.

After all, no one is stupid. No one is willing to pay a suitable price for such a product that has no clue how to make a profit.

In fact, even Xiao Ma Ge and others seemed to think so. They even discussed privately whether they should sell this thing at a low price and then use the money to do other projects.

Chen Li didn't know how Xiao Ma and others in the previous life persisted until the moment they obtained financing.

But now Xiao Ma and others have chosen to persist. Chen Li knows very well.

It’s because of the high price of three million offered by Ma Xiaoyun!

Ma Xiaoyun. When the previous Shitengxun was probably sold, this guy was still working on the original e-commerce website with his dozen or so Arhats in Lin'an.

But now Ma Xiaoyun is the hottest rising star in the domestic Internet industry.

Especially in the past six months, Ma Xiaoyun has caused a stir in the domestic computer security industry by relying on the red pony security guard he obtained from Chen Li.

This guy used the free Red Pony Security Guard to attract a large number of user resources, and then launched the matching Red Pony anti-virus software.

In just one and a half months, Red Pony Technology made a profit of more than 35 million in anti-software.

This is pure profit! Pure profit without all costs and expenses.

And 70% of the 35 million miles belongs to Chen Li. This was the condition of Chen Li's original promise to Ma Xiaoyun to operate the security guard for free.

It's just a pity that Chen Li didn't get all the money.

In fact, the money that Chen Li received was only five million, and the remaining money and the subsequent increasing share were all deducted by the red pony.

Well~ to be precise, it was Chen Li who lent the money to Red Pony Technology.

There is no way~ If Red Pony Technology wants to expand its development, it will definitely need enough funds to operate.

Once Chen Li directly takes away 70% of the profits, although Red Pony Technology cannot be paralyzed, it will definitely be regarded as a strain.

It is obviously unrealistic for such a red pony to continue to expand and develop.

So one night, Ma Xiaoyun found Chen Li with a box of Maotai, and then drank himself to death.

To be honest, although Chen Li knew that Ma Xiaoyun's drinking capacity was not very good, he still suspected that the guy was actually pretending to be drunk that night.

Ma Xiaoyun almost behaves in a playful and cute way. Actually, it is quite appropriate to say that he behaves in a playful and rogue manner.

Anyway, this guy was in a "drunk" state at the time, almost in tears, pulling Chen Li away, trying to get Chen Li not to take all the profits away at once.

What could Chen Li say? He couldn't say anything.

In fact, when it came to running Security Guard for free, Chen Li actually voted in favor.

Because he knew very well that in his previous life, Zhou Hongyi directly won the domestic computer security market by relying on free services.

If Ma Xiaoyun had chosen to discuss it with Chen Li in advance instead of bringing investors with him to put pressure on him, Chen Li would not have tormented Ma Xiaoyun so much.

Just one year's profit from killing software is not a small amount, but if you say it's a lot, it's really not so much that Chen Li would have a falling out with Ma Xiaoyun.

To put it bluntly~ Chen Li was actually warning Ma Xiaoyun not to play so many tricks with him. If there is anything, just talk to him directly.

But Chen Li never expected that this guy Ma Xiaoyun could actually apply what he learned.

So this time this guy brought a box of Maotai directly to Chen Li. So what can Chen Li do?

He is the majority shareholder of Red Pony. The better the development of Red Pony, the more beneficial it will be for him.

So in the end, Chen Li only took away five million of the money, and the rest was temporarily kept in Red Pony in the form of a loan.

No matter how Ma Xiaoyun behaves and wallows in Chen Li's house, this guy is definitely the number one figure in the domestic Internet industry.

Then the news spread out from nowhere that Ma Xiaoyun was very optimistic about OICQ, and then...

Then someone approached Brother Ma.
