Chapter 416： Only making money is real

After all, Mark's IQ is not low, and he immediately understood what Xu Ang meant: "New player? Boss, you mean to create a competitor without a competitor, so as to avoid someone talking about monopoly."

Xu Ang spread his hands: "What else? You can imagine that if someone talks about monopoly before Twitter goes public, once the monopoly investigation is launched, everything will become very bad. , it is better for us to take the initiative first and take the initiative in our own hands.”

Even though Mark knew that this would affect Twitter's valuation, he also understood that this was to eliminate hidden dangers. Otherwise, once someone detonated the thunder at a key point before the listing, the fun would be great, and he would be afraid of jumping. The heart of the sea has it.

"Boss, have you already made arrangements for Twitter's competitors?"

"Don't worry, my philosophy has always been to expand the market, not to divide the market. What I like is to open up new fields, and I hate to fight endlessly in a fixed field." Xu Ang first relaxed Mark's heart before saying it. New company, "Stanford has a freshman named Tyler Winkworth, and he and his buddies are people with ideas, and I'm going to help him realize his idea of ​​making a roster on the Internet."

"Rollers?" Mark asked. "FaceBook? Student stuff. You mean Twitter's future competitors will be born in schools, and its users will start with students."

"Capturing students and cultivating students' usage habits is equivalent to mastering the future, but it is only the future, which has little impact on the current Twitter valuation. In this way, Twitter has competitors, which is enough to avoid monopoly violence. Ray, but it won't affect us going to the stock market to make money, why not?"

Mark smiled: "Indeed, why not."

Ideals, futures, and feelings are all fake, only money is real.

If it does not affect his fortune and does not prevent himself from becoming a billionaire, Mark will not have so many opinions. After all, the real major shareholder is Xu Ang.

Even Xu Ang agreed to do it. His Mark's small arm could still twist past Xu Ang's thigh.

Li Ke walked in and said to the two who had reached a consensus: "Boss, Mr. Wayne is here."

Wayne came at a good time, and it was Xu Ang who arranged Mark and determined the next development route of Twitter. After his arrival, Xu Ang just explained the second thing.

"Netscape's services are too small, you need to give users more choices, Wayne."

Wayne felt the same as Mark before, that is, he was a little confused.

How did Netscape fail before, and why did its share price plummet, and then was acquired by Xu Ang at the price of cabbage?

Wayne and Mark are still vivid in that scene, how come Xu Ang has to make the same mistake after only a few months?

Wayne asked suspiciously: "Isn't Netscape's service aim to provide the simplest and most basic services? We should let users have the right to choose, isn't that what you said?"

Backtracking?

Getting fat by breaking your word?

Well, for Wayne and the others who manage companies in the capitalist country, it's just a routine operation, but you have to have a reason to make such a big change after a routine operation.

Wayne asked for a reason, and Xu Ang gave him a reason.

"You think what I want Netscape to provide to users is the kind of rude service that deprives users of their right to choose?"

Xu Ang shook his head, that was too unskilled.

He gave Wayne a plan, which he wrote after synthesizing the characteristics of the later 360, Sogou and other browsers.

These are all mature products that have been tested by the market. In this era of the nascent Internet, they are undoubtedly a magic secret. Wayne fell into it without looking at it.

It was only twenty or thirty pages of paper. Wayne read and thought about it, and it took him an hour to read it. After reading it, he didn't put down the plan, but put it in his arms, obviously not ready to take it out.

There's no reason to spit out what Wayne got in my hand, it's mine when it's in my hand, and no one else wants to get in the way.

Taking a long breath, Wayne convinced Xu Ang: "It turns out that there are really geniuses in this world. Boss, you are too powerful. It is never a wise choice to be your enemy. As powerful as you, it is no wonder that Steve is so powerful. Proud people will listen to you."

Xu Ang asked him, "Do you really understand?"

"I see."

It is precisely because he can see clearly that Wayne admires Xu Ang so much, and today he is really at peace. As long as Xu Ang is still the boss, he will not dare to have other thoughts.

Leaning back on the sofa, Xu Ang motioned to Wayne: "If you understand it, let's talk about it."

"Boss, there are too many blank sections in the business plan you gave. If you want to fill in the content of these sections, if you just leave it to us Netscape to do it, it will take too long, and it will give others to learn from. and plagiarism opportunities.”

"And it's not a market Netscape should be working on."

"Instead of making Netscape big but not sophisticated, and the organization is bloated, it is better to set up professional small studios or small companies. In this way, it is not necessary to distract Netscape's energy, and it also avoids the danger of being beaten by monopoly sticks. , it can bring people together and make them work for us instead of our enemies. Most importantly, it allows us to make more money.”

Hearing this, Xu Ang knew that Wayne really understood the true meaning of the plan.

Xu Anfei's efforts were not as simple as showing Wayne how Netscape browsers should be done. He wanted to build Netscape into a platform that would allow many small companies to attach to Netscape, thus forming a bundle of interests.

"Netscape is already a listed company, and even if its stock rises again, it will not be able to match the wealth that at least 30 new companies can bring after the listing. These wealth will not only create a large number of new millions, tens of millions of dollars. Rich people can feed back Netscape and push up Netscape's stock price. In the long run, Netscape will not get less."

Seeing Wayne's confident smile, Xu Ang nodded, tapped his fingers on the table, and said, "Not only that, but doing so will allow us to have a large group of allies, making Netscape an aircraft carrier on the Internet. At that time, Anyone who wants to play Netscape's idea has to weigh it carefully, not that Netscape's anti-risk ability is not strong like it is now."

Of course, the most important point is that once Netscape becomes an Internet giant-level company, Wayne will have an equal status and status with Steve.

Although Xu Ang didn't know what happened between Steve Woz and Wayne when the Big Banana Boat was founded, which led to Wayne's final resignation from management, he would accept his own from Wayne. Hiring, becoming the president of Netscape shows that this guy is fighting with Steve.

It's not surprising to think about it, if Wayne is willing to be a younger brother, he can just lie down behind Steve to make money, why should he retire?

If it wasn't for Xu Ang who gave him hope, Wayne would probably have to be a wealthy and leisurely rich man, and enjoy the rest of his life leisurely.

"Two gentlemen..." Xu Ang looked at Wayne and Mark, "If you have a suitable candidate, you can recommend him. As long as he is really capable, I will not be stingy to give them a stage to display their talents. By the way, Make them rich."

A radish has a pit, and if there are more pits, a radish is needed to fill it. If it weren't for the United States, Chinese entrepreneurship was severely restricted, and there were invisible ceiling restrictions. Xu Ang would be too lazy to use Americans, and he would be more assured to directly recruit talents from China.

Xu Ang was thinking about the use of American people for the main job, and his own people for the deputy positions and those positions that are inconspicuous but important enough. This batch of American companies can be used to attract the attention of Wall Street and use them as bargaining chips. It can also be used to cultivate domestic talents, which is not bad.
