Do a line, you must love a line; Otherwise, it is impossible to do well.
Originally, Wu Tao also felt that if he sprinkled water into the Internet business, he could send out many buds and grow into towering trees. He just had to wait for his achievements.
However, when we really do and really layout, we find that it's not that thing at all.
From Google's financing interview, he found out. Know nothing about the Internet industry, and even people will despise your money.
Therefore, for the idea of blog and the web technology needed to establish the campus network, he decided to learn from Yang Zhiyuan first, and asked him to introduce some talents. After everything is ready, he will do it on a large scale.
After making a decision, Wu Tao finds out Yang Zhiyuan's business card and makes an appointment with the other party.
Although there were some accidents, Yang Zhiyuan was very straightforward and immediately said that he would have time this afternoon.
So Wu Tao dealt with a working meal at the Apocalypse investment branch and rushed to the first avenue, Yahoo headquarters.
Wu Tao also found some tips after visiting foreign companies in recent days.
Foreigners have a strong sense of time. According to the agreed point, it's not appropriate to be early, and it's even worse to be late.
So when he arrived at the first avenue, it was a little early. Wu taoleng didn't get off the bus. He waited on the bus for a few minutes before finishing his shirt and getting off the bus.
Compared with the shabby palm headquarters, the building of Yahoo headquarters is much more magnificent. Although the floor is also not high, it covers a wide area, has many green spaces, and the architectural style is also full of a sense of science and technology.
Of course, the whole Yahoo headquarters is in an open layout, with no yard and no gate. Multiple entrances can be accessed, and there are plenty of parking spaces on the ground.
Therefore, seeing Yang Zhiyuan's first sentence, Wu Tao expressed his appreciation for Yahoo headquarters.
Such compliments sound comfortable and not offensive.
Yang Zhiyuan smiled humbly and said, "it's all because I caught up with a good era. Otherwise, Yahoo won't be so easy to pass the market in the past two years."
That's true.
In the two years since Yahoo went public, it was still operating at a loss. As a result, the popularity of Internet concept stocks rose all the way, setting off the prelude to the outbreak of the Internet industry.
Today, Yahoo's profit model tends to be stable, and its profitability has been exposed, which is reflected in the loss of momentum in its share price.
Crowning calamity, Yang Zhiyuan even worried that YAHOO would be more vulnerable than other Internet companies when the Internet bubble collapsed.
Therefore, we are considering expanding our business to China and the Asia Pacific region to explore new profit growth points.
Otherwise, if you take the shareholders' money and don't do anything, the shareholders can't agree.
When the secretary left after the coffee, Wu Tao came straight to the point, "President Yang, this time, I mainly asked you for advice on some Internet technology problems."
Yang Zhiyuan was obviously surprised.
Through the contact at the last charity dinner, he thought Wu Tao was just a young man optimistic about the Internet industry, with some capital at most.
Such capital owners usually don't care too much about specific technical matters.
Maybe it's just some simple questions. Maybe it's even looking for topics deliberately to make friends with yourself.
With this idea, Yang Zhiyuan pushed his glasses and listened to Wu Tao without changing his face: "most of the current portal websites take the unilateral release of information to users as the main mode, and measure their profitability by click through rate and user group scale."
"... this technology model leads Internet users to passively accept the content published by the website, and even lack interactivity, so they can't give a good or bad comment."
"... so I was thinking, if you build a website, you should give the editing right of the content to the users themselves. So that they can easily and easily publish the content they pay attention to and want to say, and even interact with other users online. Can it be realized with the current technical conditions? "
Yang Zhiyuan paid more attention to this problem.
This is not like a question asked by an Internet layman. Not only that, but also he is very expert and knows the way.
"You raised this question very well." In order to gain time for himself to think, Yang Zhiyuan habitually affirmed the problem first, and then thought: "it is said that this Internet model based on users and dominated by content is not difficult to realize technically."
"... since ordinary programmers can edit the content of the website, ordinary people should be able to do it with a little optimization and packaging. However, the difficulty of this form of content publishing lies in how to realize the update push and subscription mechanism of a large number of distributed web content. "
Sure enough, as soon as the expert stretched out his hand, he knew whether there was one.
For Yang Zhiyuan's analysis, Wu Tao can't agree more.
Yes, as long as the problem of pushing and subscribing to web content and link updates is solved, the concerns and concerns between different people on the campus website and the subscription problem between blogs will be solved.
Otherwise, relying solely on users to remember and actively browse like visiting portal websites not only limits the communication between different content publishers, but also can not perfectly realize the social function attribute between bloggers or between campus network users.
So he couldn't wait to ask, "Mr. Yang, can you introduce me some talents in this field? I want to clarify this problem."
Yang Zhiyuan put his right hand on the table, knocked his fingers rhythmically on the table and said, "so you are optimistic about this content-based network model?"
In this regard, Wu Tao did not cover up and said, "yes, content is king, which is the inevitable trend of Internet development in the future. Only by allowing more users to participate in the Internet can the content be richer and a more complex data world be built. This, in turn, will attract more users to join and finally achieve the goal of interconnection and sharing. "
Yang Zhiyuan was also touched after listening.
Just knowing the technology trend is one thing, but using this technology trend to form a product popular with Internet users is another thing.
Therefore, Wu Tao is not worried about what will be revealed in this conversation.
A thousand cups of wine meet a bosom friend.
This exchange made Yang Zhiyuan's impression of Wu Tao to a higher level. Together with his talent recommendation requirements, he also promised: "OK, I'll help you pay attention to this. I'll give you a result for a week at most."
"Thank you, Mr. Yang." Having achieved his goal, Wu Tao will no longer stay long.
On the contrary, Yang Zhiyuan had some unfinished feelings. Holding Wu Tao's hand, he repeatedly said, "come and sit down when you're free."
