Wall Street Legend

It's good to have a hobby. Ye Dongqing has no intention of letting Zhao Liuli eat this bowl of rice in the future. It all depends on her own hobbies.

His current assets are not too large, but considering the growth space of the stocks, shares, and start-up companies in his hands, it is very scary. If nothing happens, there will be a wave of skyrocketing in value in two or three years. In the first two years, The Internet bubble crisis of 2008 has passed its trough and is gradually undergoing a correction.

Let’s look at Facebook.

He has never tried to start a business in the Internet field before, but it can be seen that the current development speed of this company is not good.

In almost half a month, the number of registered users only increased by more than 4,200. After registering, the vast majority of them seemed to have forgotten about it and stopped opening it. They encountered difficulties in promotion. In fact, Ye Dongqing himself has used it. I think the experience is okay, and it already has the core selling point of the Facebook I used in my previous life - picture and text sharing.

It was redesigned last week and the page has become more beautiful. However, the number of users is still not large, and some users are losing. Yesterday, the number of logins was only over 600.

Came over early in the morning, Mr. Alfred House, the director of Facebook, who was reporting on work at the moment, told Ye Dongqing: "The biggest problem now is the lack of promotion. There is no inflow of new users, so the loss of users will be obvious. .

In fact, many users like it, but if someone takes a very good-looking picture or writes a long paragraph about their feelings, but no one comments or sees what they wrote, this will definitely not work. Users will choose to give up after one time. Our products must increase the number of users as soon as possible to form a virtuous cycle. "

Under the premise that the program is not bad, this problem has become the most fatal flaw.

It's not that Ye Dongqing doesn't know, he also wants to spend a lot of money to let more people know about the products developed by his company. However, the problem is... there is no money, and most of the money that can be used is invested in the futures and stock markets. He feels that it is more necessary to invest now.

Facebook is also the focus of concern and told Mr. Alfred: "I understand what you mean. Now that schools are still on spring break, you can organize some employees to leave messages in the forums of universities and middle schools. You can also follow the forums Contact the administrator and ask how much it costs to advertise in those popular related forums.”

"These are very good. It's time to invest more money in promotion. If our product is not good, I will definitely not suggest this, but I think it is very good and worthy of your careful management." Mr. Alfred asked : "Then I'll arrange for someone to try it now?"

"Yes, as long as it has an effect, it doesn't matter how much it costs."

In Ye Dongqing's view, once the initial stage is done well, the user base will definitely grow rapidly through word of mouth among users.

If it is already developed Internet companies such as Microsoft, Google, and Amazon, they can use the resources at their disposal to convert existing users into users of another program. He also suggested this to the Chief Operating Officer of Tencent some time ago, However, the problem before him is that Ye Dongqing does not have those resources and can only accumulate them from scratch.

After Mr. Alfred left the office, he leaned back in his chair and wondered how much money it would cost to "steal" users from other Internet companies, such as putting Facebook's name on the Google search page or in the Amazon store. Sold as a free product.

I'm short of money recently, so there's no need to contact me yet. I plan to try again when the time comes...

There is no need for Ye Dongqing to worry too much about Facebook. Even if he wants to worry about it, there is no chance. He can't learn programming by himself. He only needs to grasp the general direction and do a good job in promotion.

Some time ago, I was busy with Tamsui Fund, and I was a little lax in terms of promotion. I was about to spend money on promotion and cultivate the size of the user group.

Perhaps because of the compensation, Ye Dongqing's aunt did not come to see him again after they broke up, but Teacher Nash called him once to communicate with him about giving a speech at the school's graduation ceremony next June. Give a speech as a graduate representative.

In fact, he didn't really want to go. The main reason was that graduating from this public middle school was not a great achievement. However, he still agreed and said that we would communicate with him when the time came.

There are still a few months until the university registration season. He can go to the school to experience it and get a degree to get gold. But he doesn't plan to stay in school for a long time, and he doesn't think he has the patience to stay in school all day long. Ordinary people It's a bit difficult to get a degree without going to school, but Ye Dongqing is different, he has money...

***********************

Laura's community service sentence has just passed halfway, and there is no requirement that it must be completed during the sentence. Recently, she has begun to live a decadent life. Apart from going to work, she just lies in her new house and watches TV. She is determined to finish watching "" before the end of her sentence. "Friends" complete series.

Ye Dongqing is not the only one who is in trouble, her family is not happy either.

Laura's alcoholic mother finally discovered that she was missing and went to the police station to report that her daughter was missing. Fortunately, there was a record in the archives and the police told her mother's registered address, which was the newly purchased Puchuan. Building new apartment.

The mother and daughter met last week. Ye Dongqing didn't know what they said. Anyway, Laura was in a bad mood recently. I stopped doing yoga, fell in love with ice cream, and didn’t lose focus on cooking. It was completely different from my previous attitude of trying hard to learn cooking.

You can probably understand her mood. Ye Dongqing also experienced a period of decadent adolescence, which happened a few months after his parents passed away. He doesn't think Laura is happier than him. At least he can say with certainty that his parents passed away. She loved herself very much before, but Laura seemed to be in a state of abandonment. It would be better to have nothing at all.

This made him feel uncomfortable and felt sorry for Laura.

Speaking more carefully, Ye Dongqing is by no means a good person. For example, the last time he bought a full position in crude oil futures, it was an extremely irresponsible approach to investors. He has felt that no one in the world really cares about him since he was a child, and this has developed over time. This kind of character is not surprising. He has become a refined egoist.

There is not much emotion between him and Laura. If this girl suddenly said that she was in love one day, Ye Dongqing would probably be upset for a while and then feel relieved. After all, there is no promise, let alone a lifetime relationship. kind.

In the past few days, he had really cared about Laura. The reason was similar to when he took care of Zhao Liuli. He could always see his shadow, so he came up with the idea that he should help.

When returning home from Facebook, I bought a few tubs of ice cream of various flavors on the way, so that when Laura saw it, she couldn't help but show an indescribable weird look, probably a little secretly happy.

She told: "It seems you are not as mean as I thought. I thought there was only sex between you and me. Thank you for your kindness. Unfortunately, I have a stomachache these days and I don't want to eat it yet."

Ye Dongqing was noncommittal, changed the subject and said, "Then put it in the refrigerator. My fish hasn't arrived yet?"

"Someone is finishing the scenery in your study, as well as the fish in this fish tank. They said it would be best to wait a few days after changing the water before sending them over. I don't know the details. You can ask yourself."

Laura walked to the kitchen holding the paper bag. They had just officially moved in yesterday. The large tank for raising the arowana has been completed, and the large cylindrical fish tank in the study is also about to be completed.

Having raised this kind of fish, Ye Dongqing knew that they would die if the water quality was not good in the early stage. After going to his study room to communicate with the aquarium staff, he lay on the sofa unwilling to move.

He has been a little bored recently, mainly because there are not so many things in the company that need Ye Dongqing to deal with, and he is gradually starting to get on the right track.

A young body contains an overly mature soul. Whether you want to admit it or not, at this age, life is indeed not as interesting as when you were young...
