Reborn 2005: The Internet Myth

Zach obviously saw Wang Zheng and recognized him.

Seeing Wang Zheng toasting to him, Zach hesitated on the spot, then strode over and stood opposite Wang Zheng.

"Hello Phil."

"Zach, hello."

The two of them are similar in age now, so even if they are competitors, they are not indifferent to each other, so Wang Zheng still greeted each other with a smile: "Facebook is doing great, but it's a pity that I can't register an account."

At this time, Facebook is not open to the public and is only developing on university campuses. However, the concept of Meta is relatively advanced, the content is richer, and it has traffic monetization as a killer, so even in the campus market, the number of users has already increased.

No longer belongs to Facebook.

Hearing this, Zach immediately replied: "Perhaps you will be able to register soon. We are considering developing registration for the whole society."

Wang Zheng knew that he had misunderstood, making him think that he was releasing hostility, but he did not refute, and still smiled kindly: "That's really great, I hope I can use it to make friends with George W. Bush."

Facebook's dating model adopts the "six-dimensional space" theory. This theory means that you are connected to anyone in the world, and you can build this connection through up to six people.

If this thing is useful, it is indeed useful.

For example, I can show off to others that the son of my distant cousin’s elementary school classmate’s mother’s grandmother’s distant cousin is a United States General.

To say it is useless, it is indeed useless.

Because the general commander of the American Federation has no time to pander to you.

Upon hearing this, Zach was a little anxious. He took a few breaths to restrain himself from continuing the laning. He hesitated again and asked: "Is the A2V image format used by Meta developed by you yourself?"

Wang Zheng nodded when he heard the words, and then understood the purpose of Zach's visit.

The image compression ratio of A2V is too high, and the compression loss is very small. Moreover, due to the small size of the image, both storage and bandwidth save a lot of costs for social media. Another advantage is that the web page loads very quickly, making it easier for users to use.

The experience will be better.

The disadvantage is that pictures downloaded from the web are still in A2V format and cannot be opened at all without a decoder.

After getting the answer he wanted, Zach immediately asked eagerly: "This format is so powerful. Do you have any plans to open source it or license it to external parties?"

Open source? Licensed? No kidding...

Wang Zheng suddenly felt that there was something wrong with this guy. You wanted to shoot me down, and you came to my house to borrow a gun.

Even if we want to license it to external parties, it will take a few years, at least until our online streaming business is launched.

So he simply shook his head and replied calmly: "There is no such plan in the short term. Meta needs to give investors enough confidence."

Zach was obviously very disappointed. In fact, he knew very well that if it were him, he would not authorize anyone else.

This is a big killer. No matter who it is given to, it will reduce IDC's business costs to an extremely low number. In this period of competition for market dominance, it is impossible for Meta to cultivate opponents for itself.

Watching Zach's leaving figure, Wang Zheng suddenly felt like he was swollen in an instant - this horse is Facebook, which will have a market value of one trillion US dollars in the future!

This hasn’t even started a targeted confrontation, and Facebook already has no chance of survival.

"Hey Justin, you seem happy."

Wang Zheng turned around and saw that it was Elizabeth Holmes and Louis Bryan. A young man and woman were accompanied by Bryan.

Wang Zheng had seen the woman in a pure white dress. She was one of the people who accompanied Brian into the venue. She was even more stunning when seen up close. Her dress and temperament showed off her personality from head to toe.

Her noble aura, almost flawless face and blue eyes give her a unique charm.

She was also holding the arm of a man, a man with blond hair and brown eyes, who was also very handsome, about two-thirds the size of a plum, and exuding full arrogance.

"Good evening, Brian, Elizabeth."

Wang was greeting a few people, and Brian immediately introduced: "This is Justin Fehr, these two are Jeff..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jeff Rothschild immediately stepped forward, stretched out his hand very gentlemanly, shook Wang Zheng's hand vigorously, and said with a smile: "Mr. Phil, I finally meet you. Let me introduce myself.

, Jeff Rothschild, head of Enyi Capital Internet Fund, this is my sister, Diane Rothschild.”

Hearing the surname "Rothschild" that was deliberately emphasized in his mouth, Wang Zheng couldn't help but look a little suspiciously.

If someone engaged in economics has not heard of Rothschild, it is as ridiculous as if a soldier has never heard of Napoleon, or if a person studying physics does not know Newton.

This is not what Wang Zheng said, it was said in "Currency War".

What Song Daxian wrote is also a novel, not a biography, regardless of whether it is true or false.

But when this mysterious family that allegedly "controls the world's 50 trillion U.S. dollars" surfaced, everyone realized, oh, it turns out there really is such a family in the world.

Of course, no one knows the exact amount of the family's wealth, and no one knows whether it really controls the world behind the scenes.

But it is undeniable that it is a family with a very long history, which can even be traced back to before World War II.

The giants of the American League who stayed after World War II, such as Rockefeller, Morgan, DuPont, etc., were all influential.

And how could a family that was older than them and passed down the family be any worse?

In the American League, the surname Rothschild is not common.

There is no doubt that these two are probably the real legendary Rothschilds.

Moreover, Wang Zheng noticed the title of head of the Internet Fund of Enyi Capital mentioned by Jeff. Isn’t this the same Enyi Capital that led the investment in the Meta community?

If it hadn't been for Enyi's deep pockets at that time, even if the Meta community could have raised 150 million, the negotiation process at that time would have been very difficult.

Wang Zheng also responded with a smile: "Nice to meet you, thank you Enyi Capital for its importance to Meta."

In fact, capital investors can also see that Meta has huge potential and its profitability is very good.

If Wang Zheng didn't really have any funds and was eager to capture the market quickly, it would definitely not be their turn to drink this hot soup.

However, you still have to say what you need to say in the situation without being embarrassed.

Jeff immediately responded: "I am very optimistic about you and the Meta community, Phil. You have created many miracles in Silicon Valley, Meta, WeChat, Crowdfunding Network, and there has never been a startup in Silicon Valley that can make money so quickly.

We can have a good chat some other time. Enyi Capital is very interested in every project of yours. We believe in long-term holding and mutual growth, rather than quick exit."

If someone sent money to the door, Wang Zheng would definitely not mind. He immediately replied: "Of course, it's no problem. It's a pleasure to cooperate with Enyi Capital."

Jeff nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, and smiled at a few people: "I have some other things that I need to leave first. Phil, please take care of Diane."

???

Wang was looking at Diane Rothschild opposite, confused, but Brian smiled and changed the subject: "Justin, I want to talk to you about the crowdfunding network."
