Since 2000 - VChapter 59: : think beautiful

Bao Yueqiao didn’t even realize that he had been taken in by Shaker, and Zhou Hongyi was also immersed in the compliments from his peers, unaware that he had been missed.

Although this year’s West Lake Discourse on Sword is not as bright as the previous two, many people have gained something.

I feel that the most rewarding is Zhou Hongyi.

Not only did he reflect his status in the arena, but a word that he used to keep away from before also quietly appeared in his mind.

Zhou Hongyi has always positioned himself as a product creator, but after this discussion on the West Lake, he felt that the identity of a successful entrepreneur is also worth having.

How to measure the success of an entrepreneur is to control a public company.

When she went public, Zhou Hongyi had always felt far away from herself.

It’s not that he hasn’t considered this issue, but the lessons learned from Sina founder Wang Zhidong and 8848’s Wang Juntao over the past two years have always made him deeply fearful of the capital market.

In Zhou Hongyi’s opinion, such a thing is not allowed for the child who has worked so hard to raise it, but eventually becomes someone else’s.

But after hearing Liang Jianzhang’s words, Lao Zhou suddenly confronted the problem.

Going public doesn’t seem like a big deal.

The listing of 3721 was not discussed, but it was rejected by Zhou Hongyi every time.

In Lao Zhou’s view, going public will only put a curse on his head, but it will not be of great help to his career.

But after this trip to the West Lake, Lao Zhou suddenly realized that the difference in status between him and Zhang Chaoyang and Fatty Ding might be due to this.

Isn’t the three major portals so powerful just because they got money from their listing in the United States?

In fact, their wealth is not necessarily more than their own.

“I also listed thousands of dollars myself?”

This thought flashed through Zhou Hongyi’s mind, but it lingered for a long time.

Zhou Hongyi found Wang Gongquan, the contact person of IDG, the company’s investment agency.

The last incident between the U.S. and Google made Zhou Hongyi angry with Wang Gongquan. He had ignored each other for more than a month.

However, IDG is the first investment institution of 3721. At the beginning of the establishment of 3721, Wang Gongquan helped Zhou Hongyi a lot. He even taught Zhou Hongyi to write a business plan.

Therefore, although IDG’s ability is not enough to guide the development of 3721, Zhou Hongyi has long been habitually discussing with Wang Gongquan when a major event occurs.

Knocking on the door of Wang Gongquan’s residence in Beijing, Zhou Hongyi threw off her shoes and went straight to the sofa to sit down.

“What’s wrong?” Wang Gongquan made Zhou Hongyi a cup of tea.

Zhou Hongyi raised his legs and sat down cross-legged.

“Pharaoh, what do you think about our company going public?”

Wang Gongquan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “When did you figure it out?”

Zhou Hongyi put down her crossed legs and said, “I’m just asking, don’t you want 3721 to go public every time you have a meeting?”

Wang Gongquan smiled and said: “Of course it is good to go public. Not only can the company get financing to grow rapidly, but also the reputation of the company will be qualitatively improved.”

Having said this, Wang Gongquan breathed a sigh of relief: “If 3721 is listed, we can successfully cash out, and the investment I am responsible for can be retired perfectly.”

Zhou Hongyi paused, then slowly raised his head.

“You just want to leave?”

Wang Gongquan said with a smile: “We are an investment institution, and we will naturally withdraw after making a profit.”

Zhou Hongyi still looked at Wang Gongquan seriously.

“I’m talking about you, not you.”

A trace of unnaturalness appeared on Wang Gongquan’s face. He sighed deeply and said, “You are no longer the young man you used to be, and I can no longer guide you.”

“But you once said that you would accompany 3721 to become the greatest Internet company.” Zhou Hongyi suddenly became excited.

Wang Gongquan stepped forward and patted Zhou Hongyi’s shoulder, and said, “3721 is great enough now.”

“Have you forgotten our competitors? Have you forgotten the shame that Google brought us?” Zhou Hongyi asked loudly.

There was a hint of bitterness on Wang Gongquan’s mouth.

“Let’s discuss the listing together.”

Zhou Hongyi waved: “I will not go public. I will never consider going public until 3721 becomes the greatest Internet company.”

For some reason, Zhou Hongyi suddenly felt that he was disgusted by the word listing. He seemed to feel that his entrepreneurial dream seemed to be tainted by this word.

Wang Gongquan looked at Zhou Hongyi, and then said helplessly: “You, you, you are such a big boss, you are still like a child.”

Zhou Hongyi turned her head away in a fit of anger and remained silent.

Zhou Hongyi suffered many setbacks when he founded 3721, and it was not until IDG invested in 3721 that the situation gradually improved.

It was at that time that Zhou Hongyi and Wang Gongquan forged a deep friendship.

Zhou Hongyi always thought that they would continue to cooperate until 3721 became a brand like Google and Yahoo.

But he didn’t know until today that the other party really had always wanted to retreat.

This made him feel a sense of anger after being betrayed, as well as a sense of confusion about the future.

Looking at Zhou Hongyi’s appearance, Wang Gongquan smiled slightly.

He came to the bottom next to Zhou Hongyi, and then said softly: “The 2 million we invested in you at the beginning has been able to get a dozen times the return, and the company has long had the idea of ​​withdrawing capital~www.mtlnovel .com~ but it has always been suppressed by me.”

Zhou Hongyi looked back at Wang Gongquan and said, “We will become the largest search company in China, and withdrawing at this time will be your biggest loss.”

Wang Gongquan smiled slightly.

Zhou Hongyi hurriedly said: “What I said is true, don’t think that we are technically behind now, but it won’t be long before we can overtake in the corners.”

“You still hope that Google can help you?” Wang Gongquan said with a smile.

Zhou Hongyi shook her head and said, “You know I invested in a game company, and that company won the agency of Legend 3, and soon we will have a lot of R&D funds.”

“You actually pin your hopes on a game that hasn’t been released yet?” Wang Gongquan shook his head with a wry smile, and said, “And technology isn’t something you can have if you have money.”

“Just wait and see.” Zhou Hongyi said confidently.

Wang Gongquan looked at Zhou Hongyi and sighed softly.

After a long time, he hesitated and said, “If you really want 3721 to become the largest search company in China, I have a solution.”

Zhou Hongyi looked at Wang Gongquan suspiciously.

Wang Gongquan said slowly: “A high-level executive of Yahoo met me in the United States last month, and they were very interested in 3721. They are willing to make 3721 a successful search engine, but… They have one condition.”

“What conditions?” Zhou Hongyi’s emotions instantly became excited.

Wang Gongquan said slowly: “They ask for holding.”

“Mom drop a slap.” Zhou Hongyi jumped off the sofa.

“Think beautiful.” Zhou Hongyi looked at Wang Gongquan gritted his teeth.
