These days, Zhongguancun outside Shangdi is still desolate and tight.
The small building where Netease is located, that is, the bare sitting on the ground, is not the style, let alone the brilliance, but it is already the most prominent landmark in this area.
Because everyone knows that Netease is the first domestic Internet enterprise to start listing on NASDAQ.
This glory is incomparable to the latecomers in any case.
Since moving to the capital, Ding Lei has found that NetEase is entering a new world.
Not only all kinds of resources are within reach, but even all kinds of capital are pouring in.
Although today's NetEase does not need to refinance, the feeling of being sought after by capital is still quite cool.
All this is inseparable from Wu Tao's inspiration and support.
Therefore, seeing Wu Tao leading a team to visit, Ding Lei felt like old friends at first sight. At the same time, his mood was also very different.
So that the reception team of Tianjing company is almost the highest standard.
Holding Wu Tao's hand all the way, he sighed with emotion: "Oh, President Wu, I heard that you have come to the capital to go to school. I've long wanted to visit you. But these days, the United States is going to review this and that. I'm so worried that I really didn't care. "
Wu Tao always feels uncomfortable being held by a big man.
Then he quietly drew back his hand and said, "I'm a newcomer to the capital. I should hold your thigh."
Ding Lei's old face is red. "Wu, don't make fun of me. If you can come here today, I also expect you to give a good talk to our Netease team, give us the way of IPO in the future, and how to go after IPO, and point out the direction. "
"Don't introduce!" Wu Tao stared, "come on! Today, I'm leading a team to get scriptures, not to preach scriptures. I will organize your IT experts and project management team to talk to the people I bring. "
"... I tell you, you must speak until they understand. Otherwise, I'll lead the team and stay with you until... "
Before he finished, Ding Lei raised his hand and swore, "Mr. Wu, don't worry, don't worry. I have arranged it early in the morning, which is absolutely satisfactory to you! "
With that, Ding Lei explained to the female secretary next to him, turned and invited Wu Tao to his own office.
Watching Qiu smokeless go with the female secretary, Wu Tao strolled into Ding Lei's office and glanced with interest.
Sure enough, it is a typical programmer's office, revealing the style of technicians everywhere.
Guiding Wu Tao to sit down in the sofa area, Ding Lei personally poured him a glass of water: "Mr. Wu, look at many people in your team. Their faces are very young. You don't need money. Why do you need to find some raw melons and eggs to do the project? "
Wu Tao picked his eyebrows and said, "I have to work slowly for this project. I'm not in a hurry. Besides, the one in charge of core technology development is a technical team I dug from Netscape in Silicon Valley. At the technical level, it should not be a problem. "
Ding Lei patted his thigh, "I said, you can't make such a mistake. I actually dug a team from Netscape, so it's a foregone conclusion that Netscape will be merged? "
Wu Tao nodded, "almost."
Ding Lei couldn't help sighing, "I think at the beginning, I also saw the popularity of Netscape and Yahoo, so I moved the idea of doing Netease. Now Netease has not been listed, and Netscape will be acquired. It seems that IPO can't be easy. "
"Of course, it enterprises rise rapidly, but if they can't keep pace with the times and innovate continuously, they will decline faster!" Wu Tao said this softly, but Ding Lei tightened his eyebrows.
"You're right, Mr. Wu." Ding Lei lost his high spirited side in front of his subordinates and said with a worried face: "to tell you the truth, I haven't slept for a day since I confirmed Netease's IPO!"
"... my mind is full of a sense of crisis. But in front of subordinates, I can't say. I've been thinking about how Netease will perform after it goes public all day? In the 21st century, how should we transform and look for profit growth points... "
Wu Tao said nothing, waiting for him to finish.
Because Ding Lei talks so much, he doesn't really want to get any answers from him or point out the direction. But as an it upstart, his bones are full of this sense of crisis.
It was only because there was no one to sue that I poured bitter water and released the pressure with Wu Tao, a friend who is also a teacher and a friend.
It seems that experience can really change a person. At least Ding Lei in front of him is no longer as jumping and fun as he was when he first met.
Ding Lei said, and later sighed, full of pessimism and disappointment about the Internet industry.
Until later, Wu Tao really couldn't listen and felt that he had to say something.
"A sense of crisis is a good thing! But excessive pessimism and despair is going to extremes. " Wu Tao said in an indisputable voice, "there must be a way to the front of the mountain! Besides, even I have invested so much in the Internet industry. What else can you worry about? "
Ding Lei's eyebrows brightened when he heard it, right.
In front of the gold Lord, he has risen so far. He is what he invests and what he does. Since he dares to jump into the pit of the Internet, the situation must be far less serious than he thought.
Just as soon as the idea returned to the campus network project made by Wu Tao, Ding Lei couldn't help judging and considering with his professional vision, and then pondering for a long time, he said cautiously: "Mr. Wu, with all due respect, did you make this campus network purely in the nature of playing tickets? At least, I haven't figured out the profit model yet. "
"Then you'll think about it!" Wu Tao leaned back on the sofa and said, "I can only tell you that my product is aimed at the next generation Internet boom."
Ding Lei tilted his head and pondered over it, but his face was still skeptical: true or false?
The day's visit was fleeting. When everyone left by bus next evening, Ding Lei still couldn't understand.
Wu Tao knows that not only Ding Lei but also the current generation of it upstarts in China will think so.
This is the limitation brought by the development of the times and environment.
Back to God, the people on the bus were discussing the harvest of the day in a hot fire.
Especially in Yang Zili's eyes, "boss, after a day's visit and study, I found that President Ding and president Zhang have created an era of China's Internet!"
Many people followed, with sincere admiration on their faces.
But when Wu Tao thought that Ding Lei was still pouring bitter water in front of him during the day, he couldn't help being funny.
However, he quickly withdrew his mind and took the opportunity to encourage him: "then the next era of China's Internet depends on you!"
