Reborn 2005: The Internet Myth

On the afternoon of March 5th, Cheryl arrived at the company.

Because she used to work in Virginia, it would be more troublesome to return to California, as her family and children would need to be accommodated.

Wang Zheng took her to the office on the second floor and sat down. Catherine served tea and coffee as usual.

"Welcome very much, Ms. Sandberg. Meta is just a start-up, so we are honored to invite you to join us. This is Meta's honor."

Different from the people in Daxia, the American League is more unrestrained, boasting the good ones to death, and criticizing the bad ones, and is not very reserved.

Cheryl's appearance is very gentle, which is very in line with Asian aesthetics. She smiled and said: "The main reason is that you give me too much, boss."

After a few simple conversations, both parties felt that the other party could get along with each other, so they happily signed the contract.

Next it was time to talk about work, and Wang Zheng began to talk about the company's products.

Under Sheryl Sandberg's instruction, Wang Zheng can call her Shirley.

"Shirley, Meta company currently has two products. One is the Meta community, which is a sharing community website that provides users with video, music, picture and text sharing."

Wang Zheng handed her a document that described the form of the community website in detail.

"Different from Facebook's model, Meta pays more attention to sharing content. High-quality content will be recommended by the homepage, and creators can gain a large number of fans. Then we provide docking tools with advertisers to enable celebrities, Internet celebrities and other high-quality creators to

Traffic generates value.”

This Meta is actually Xiaoyunshu in China, with a different name and face.

Xiao Yunshu brought it over, and of course Ding Ding was also included.

Wang Zheng handed over another document and said: "The other product is an instant messaging product, our office communication field."

Cheryl looked at the two product manuals in her hands and was very shocked.

Originally, she was unhappy at AOL, but a headhunter told her that a start-up company whose owner was stupid and had too much money was hiring people. She took this opportunity to work for two years to enrich her qualifications and increase her worth, so that she could jump to a better place.

company to go to.

Unexpectedly, although there is only one boss in the company, there are two bosses behind him.

After working in the Midland Internet industry for so many years, she can clearly see the strength of the products, and the most exaggerated thing is that the profit model is very clear.

There are many Internet companies in Midland, but very few have found a profit model and successfully raised funds.

Apart from anything else, Facebook next door currently only has a large number of student users, but it is still early to make a profit.

Cheryl feels that changing jobs this time may be the most correct choice in her life.

But before Wang Zheng finished speaking, he took out two other pieces of information and said: "Shirley, these two businesses of Meta will require more funds in the early stage, so I decided to do two agency operation businesses.

The information is from Daxia's "Huo Rong Safety" and "365 Navigation" web pages."

"I need you to become familiar with these businesses as soon as possible and help the company find suitable talents to promote our products."

Needless to say, Huorong Security is free to begin with, and after passing Microsoft certification, it has become very popular internationally.

365 Navigation also has an urgent need to go overseas. How much money it makes is another matter. The main purpose is to increase its own value so that it can continue to make money.

Wang Zheng thought, it would be better to use Meta as an agent and run this software on an international scale. The profits generated by 365 Navigation can also be transferred back to Daxia in the form of agency fees, killing two birds with one stone.

Cheryl was stunned by four 2s and two kings.

This is not what a start-up company should be like. With just these four products, she dares to tell people that Meta’s goal is to surpass Microsoft.

"Okay Justin." After sorting out the files in her hand, Cheryl showed a charming smile: "I will build the team as quickly as possible and then start the product promotion plan."

"Thank you for your hard work, Shirley. I hope that when Meta rings the bell, you will become a member of the $100 million club."

This is a trick, telling her clearly that as long as she does a good job, the company will allocate shares to her and the company will be listed.

After taking over the keys to the Mercedes-Benz, Cheryl was full of energy.

There is no job more exciting than this!

To be honest, here in Silicon Valley, there is no shortage of talents, and high-level talents are everywhere.

Waving cash, the California offices of Korn Ferry and Heidrick & Struggles were as busy as dogs.

Cheryl went through one interview after another, and within a week a team of thirty people was formed, filling the villa to the brim.

Because there is no board of directors for the time being, Wang is serving as the company's president and CTO, responsible for product development management and managing a small team of twelve people.

Cheryl also used high salaries to recruit senior talents in finance, legal affairs, marketing, etc., and the progress was very smooth.

Meta's development work is relatively free, as long as the task can be completed within the specified time.

If you complete it well, you may even be invited by your boss and immediate superior to eat delicious Chinese cuisine.

The company's first development task is the foreign version of 365 Navigation.

According to the operation plan of "Huo Rong Safety", the hot list function will occupy a larger proportion.

This hot list function was originally a meager imitation of Twitter, and Twitter is now a small company that has not yet taken shape.

So there is no psychological pressure.

When the number of international users of 365 Navigation increases, the hot list function will be separated and the 365 hot list will be launched to take advantage of the situation. It will overthrow Twitter and gain another unicorn business.

So beautiful.

Cheryl has indeed shown strong control skills and network resources. With Gu Ge’s early employment experience, the cooperation between 365 Navigation’s search bar and Gu Ge was extremely smooth.

Thanks to my working experience in AOL, I also have the hot list content, navigation links and other services at my fingertips.

At this time, it becomes clear how valuable 500,000 flowers is.

On March 31st, after everything was prepared, Meta held a product launch conference the day before April Fools' Day.

In view of the cooperative relationship with the hot news list, all major media were also very generous and gave full warm-up to this press conference.

Moreover, this was the first time Meta opened to the world, so it made a big deal and rented the California Theater in San Jose for the press conference.

Apple has also used this place, many times.

This shows how high-level he is.

Thirty minutes before the press conference started, Meta’s main management personnel arrived at the scene, and Wang Zheng was no exception.

After all, he is now Justin Fehr. In terms of identity, he is a pure American.

Americans respect individual heroes. Note that Justin combines the elements of youth, returning home, entrepreneurship, and the Internet. He is a very typical practitioner of the American dream. This will also be a very good publicity point for the media.

Wang Zheng himself does not object to showing up. Reputation is very important abroad.

He still has a lot to do, and a good reputation will be of great help to him.

Moreover, he has never appeared in the media in China, and very few people know him. After some makeup modification, no one would suspect that he is from Daxia.
