In the eyes of Li Mu, Mark Zuckerberg is a BUG.
Not only because he is the youngest billionaire USD super rich, but also because of his super vision and ability in his entrepreneurial career.
Ordinary people start a business, can it be said that creating a internet Big Mac such as Facebook's hundreds of billions of USD level, the key is that until 2013, Mark Zuckerberg's shareholding ratio in Facebook can still stick to around 30%, Compared with the domestic 4-5 ten-year-old internet Dana, it is much stronger, so he can surpass the founders of all domestic internet companies in personal assets, which is where he is quite awesome.
Countless rebirths who appear in the novel will not miss the thighs of Mark Zuckerberg. The way of holding thighs is also strange. Some people went to the other side of the ocean to invest in him when Facebook was founded. Someone went to the United States to find him, and he became friends with Facebook before Facebook was established, but Li Mu didn't think so.
First of all, if you wait for Facebook to start, and then go to the United States to invest in Mark Zuckerberg, it is logically unreasonable. There are so many internet companies in the United States, so many companies and projects are born every day in Silicon Valley. How can a China person Wanli went to find a Harvard university student and offered him money? It is estimated that even Mark Zuckerberg will be startled.
Moreover, it is not so easy for China people to invest in American entrepreneurship, especially when it comes to the issue of corporatization, direct investment is very troublesome, and the other party is not willing to accept it. The most important thing is to have a registration in the United States. A perfect company with complete procedures, and throwing hundreds of millions of USD lying on the account, seeing good projects directly sign contracts with the investors in the name of the company, this is much more convenient and formal.
The risky investment is not suitable, and the initial investment is not very safe. Mark Zuckerberg was first a Harvard university student, and then had the idea of starting a business in the school, became an entrepreneur, he From a student to an entrepreneur who gave birth to the idea of Facebook, this is the established route that has been planned for a long time. If you do not intervene in advance, then Mark Zuckerberg on the other side of the ocean will follow His original rhythm is advancing. He will surely set up facemash in 2003, and he will certainly create Facebook idea at the end of 2003 and start to realize it in 2004.
Then the most critical link is finally here.
Since Li Mu did not interfere with Mark Zuckerberg to follow his established route, he will definitely try to buy the domain name of Facebook at the beginning of his business. The holder of the domain name quoted 10,000 yuan USD level at that time. Poor student Mark Zuckerberg, if this domain name is in his own hands, by the end of 2003 and early 2004, Mark Zuckerberg will definitely contact himself to try to buy the domain name, and Li Mu's's ultimate purpose is not for At the end of 03, he sold this domain name to him, but took this opportunity to invest directly in him.
Li Mu's sorted out the time nodes of Facebook's development.
In February 2004, Mark. Zuckerberg ’s facebook went live, starting with Harvard and gradually spreading to other colleges and universities. At this time, he was an ordinary student and used facebook as an after-school entrepreneurial small project to operate .
In September 2004, Mark. Zuckerberg got Facebook ’s first angel investment, the 500,000 USD invested by PayPal founder Peter.Thiel, and Facebook at that time had already shown its extraordinary Expansion capacity.
Li Mu's can't help but make up a picture.
If you pull the timeline to a certain day in 2003, Mark Zuckerberg, who is in a classroom at Harvard university and has a small class, and finally bites the 58th pencil, finally thought of this Facebook. Idea, and the more he thought about it, the idea was really great, and it was too feasible, so he went to class hard, rushed to the bedroom, turned on the computer, and prepared to register for the domain name registration agent website , Pre-registered the domain name Facebook, he does not know whether this domain name has been registered, but he must be silently expecting this domain name is still pending registration.
When he filled in the top-level domain name facebook.com in the domain name query box, then, he was distressed to find that the dog is gone! I am such a genius idea, it will be taken by others first. It seems that the phrase Facebook is not the first one I thought of. Someone who had a dictionary hoarding domain names thought of this phrase before.
Then, he ca n’t wait to see what the **** is this Facebook.com.
After opening, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, because there is nothing on this page, only In short: "This domain name can be sold." Then there is an MSN for contact.
"It turned out to be a ghost who saved domain names."
At this time, Mark. Zuckerberg breathed a sigh of relief. He would not immediately think of registering with Thefacebook. He would think: "Doesn't this domain name sell for too much money? Thousands of USD will reach the top, if Bargaining, maybe even small advantage, he will certainly not be like me, he can combine the concept of university with high social network station, and Facebook's slightly strange phrase together! "
Then, Mark. Zuckerberg added this MSN.
At this time, Li Mu, which had been waiting for Mark. Zuckerberg for two years, came online with a smile on his face.
Mark. Zuckerberg said on MSN: "Hello, sir, I want to buy the Facebook domain name in your hands."
"Oh? How much are you willing to pay?"
"I think, such a domain name, five hundred dollars should be a good offer."
Li Mu sent him a laughing expression: "Sorry, I am not really inclined to sell this domain name, I prefer to use it to make an social network network, starting with university, and I have already started Ready to get started, initially prepare to take a few million USD out for fun. "
"I'm really a dog !!"
Think about it, when Mark. Zuckerberg heard his idea and was spoken by someone with a Facebook domain name, what would he think?
It ’s over, this person is ahead of himself, and most importantly, they are rich and willing to invest millions of USD to test the water.
There is a big difference between starting a business with a rich person and starting a business with no money.
If you compare entrepreneurship to a large car rental company, all the rich have to do is buy a bunch of cars and build an operation team;
The way for people who have no money is: first find a way to save the most small advantage car, and then try to save one or two to come out first, the process of saving is naturally needless to say, the purchase of various parts, purchase is not Come or DIY that you can't afford, and then mix and do various tests.
After this series of work is completed, he has finally proved that he can save one or two cars. At this time, if an investor approves the car they saved, he will vote for them and let them save another one. Approved, this is the legendary angel round investment.
Get angel investment and save a certain amount, but it is still not enough to run a real large car rental company, and then go find someone to invest a second, this is the A round of financing;
Finally, the A round came together, barely enough to save the amount, this time to start building a better operation team ...
This is almost half a century slower than the rich, that is, the turtle and the rabbit race. If the rabbit does not make a big mistake, the turtle can never catch up with him.
The although analogy is not very appropriate, but this is the whole internet entrepreneurship. If Ma Yun was founded in Alibaba, it won the vacuum in the domestic market. If someone directly took tens of millions to do the same thing with him, he might be in It has already failed from the beginning.
At this time, Mark. Zuckerberg, 80% was already discouraged. He did n’t know how to do it at once. It might take a few days to think about it, but more likely to give up this entrepreneurship idea.
Just when he was unsure, Li Mu suddenly asked him: "Right, can you tell me something, what do you want this domain name to do?"
"Me?" Mark. Zuckerberg laughed at himself: "I also want to be a social network station, but now, I think I might need to think about it."
Li Mu suddenly said generously: "Everyone even thought of going together. This is really fate. In fact, we have the opportunity to sit down and talk about this common idea between you and me. If the concepts are the same, I can put The domain name is for you, and you will invest a sum of money to help me complete this plan. After all, I am really too busy, and I want to do some other things, and give it to others. I am afraid that he will not understand me. Planning. "
"Really?" Mark. Zuckerberg is hard to imagine that someone is willing to vote for such an unknown **** who has nothing, but the other party ’s reason is also very good. You can go with me. This proves You are very close to my mode of thinking. If you are able to pass the level, you can rest assured of investing in you.
Li Mu smiled and said: "Of course it is true, but I have something to do recently. I want to go to Cambridge, Massachusetts. I do n’t know where you are. When I come back from Cambridge, we can make an appointment. On the one hand, I can ask my assistant to book a round-trip ticket for you. "
Mark. Zuckerberg is actually at Harvard university, and Harvard university is in Cambridge. The reason why Li Mu is saying this is actually to make the fish bait more deadly.
So, it is conceivable that when he heard this sentence, he would probably believe in fate like China people, and he would be crazy and excited ...
"Gosh, sir, I am in Cambridge! Actually, I am still a university student at Harvard! If you come to Cambridge, can we take the time to see the previous side?"
"My God, this is really the magic of the Creator! How come there are so many coincidences and coincidences in us? This is so destined! Anyway, I must meet you, then you wait Let me know. I will contact you when I get to Cambridge. "
"This is really the will of God, then I am waiting for you in Cambridge!"
"OK, wait for me boy!"
This is the complete concept of Li Mu's. To sum it up briefly, it can be called: domain name setting, fate singing.
After that, Li Mu can be sure that no matter where and what you are doing, the first thing to do is to buy a ticket to Cambridge, the United States ... (to be continued.)
