In the room.

Li Dong met Wang Xin for the first time.

He is very young. Outsiders say that Li Dong is too young. Wang Xin is not very young.

Wang Xin, who is less than 30 years old this year, set up the school intranet as early as five years ago, which caused the popularity of SNS websites.

Five years ago, Wang Xin was only 24 years old, and many people were still gnawing at the age of 24.

In five years, Wang Xin stumbled and said that he had made some money. At the end of 2006, he sold the school intranet and got 2 million US dollars.

However, this money is not all his. If you divide some, he will have several million yuan left.

In the past two years, he has invested in the creation of some websites. Last year, he had a meal, and his money had already been spent.

At this time, Wang Xin was very poor and miserable.

When Li Dong looks at Wang Xin, Wang Xin is also looking at Li Dong.

He attended the Internet Conference and saw Li Dong's supremacy. He saw that Li Dong's words were silent everywhere.

He also saw that Li Dong covered all the big men in the IT industry, chatting and laughing with ministers and mayors.

Wang Xin is jealous.

Li Dong, only 23 years old!

At the age of 24, he founded the school intranet. At the age of 25, he went to find VC financing with full of passion.

As a result, his most welcome sentence is: "you are too young, how can we believe you?"

Or: "if you are Zhou Hongyi, what do you say about the future? We trust you and can raise funds. You are not. Sorry!"

Once, he begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother for $1 million in financing, and even was willing to give up the dominance of the intranet.

However, it turned out to be frustrating, and no one paid any attention to him.

Because, he is too young!

At one time, he thought that he was too young, so others did not trust him. At one time, he once thought that it was really difficult for young people to start a business, even if you have unlimited ability.

But when he knew Li Dong's existence, Wang Xin's heart was full of despair. It turned out that being young was just an excuse.

How old is Li Dong?

Last year, his remote technology to finance, vcpe institutions around the world flocked to move!

One billion dollars?

Sorry, Li Dong doesn't pay attention to you. How far do you go.

Two billion dollars?

Keep going!

Even at last, Li Dong offered a sky high price of 40 billion RMB. In this way, there are still people who are interested in it!

At that time, Li Dong was 22 years old.

And he, 25 years old, was about to kowtow when he was seeking $1 million in financing. No one paid attention to him. Is it really because of his age?

Wang Xin once envied, envied and resented. However, when he saw Li Dong, Wang Xin's emotions gradually dissipated.

Age is not an excuse.

No matter whether Li Dong is lucky or lucky, or has strong connections, but in essence, Li Dong is no deeper than him.

Li Dong was born into a peddler's family and started from scratch. Before entering the Internet field, he laid a solid industrial foundation. Wang Xin thought that he could not do it.

At least his family was rich, so he was recommended to Aoki University and all the way to the United States to study for a doctor's degree.

At least in root, he is luckier than Li Dong.

He is older than Li Dong in his age. In any case, he is defeated if he fails. It is hard to find an excuse to say that others are luckier than himself. That is the performance of the weak and the incompetent.

The two sides looked at each other for a while, waiting for the tea to come up.

Li Dong took a light SIP and said with a light smile: "in April, the school intranet raised 430 million US dollars. How do you feel?"

Wang Xin's mouth twitched for a moment. They all said that Li Dong liked to fight in the face!

At the end of 2006, he sold the school intranet for $2 million, and Qianxiang took over. In a little more than a year, he raised more than 4 billion US dollars, nearly 3 billion yuan!

The gap among them is enough to make many people despair, so many people are distressed, they want to jump off a building and commit suicide.

This is also Wang Xin's pain. Now it is revealed by Li Dong, Wang Xin's heart twitches for a while, and after a long time, he says in a deep voice: "envy, jealousy, regret, all have happened!

However, I finally understand a truth, or their own is not strong enough!

If I'm strong enough, today, there won't be news of Qianxiang's successful financing. "

Li Dong laughed and did not go on with the topic. He said, "what's the purpose of you looking for me?"

"I'd like to practice on microblogging for a few months."

Li Dong was a little confused. After a long time, he said with a smile: "it's a little interesting. Are you for dinner?"

"Yes, Fanfu is not the first we media social networking site in China strictly speaking, but it is the most comprehensive, closest to Twitter and the most suitable we media platform for domestic people.

I always feel that whether the meal will succeed or not will lead the trend.

But I finally found that I still failed.When the remote microblog was launched, whether the rice had no competitive power and collapsed in an instant, I was very disappointed, and it was very difficult to accept this point.

When the microblog fire in the distance and several Sina enterprises follow suit, I feel that I still have hope.

What can I say about it? I have laid the foundation.

I think that if I find a financing party at this time, I can also compete with other microblogs.

But all the VC firms refused me, they told me that they didn't want to lose money, they didn't want to lose money.

Because, remote micro blog, is the most market share, the largest number of users, the largest amount of information sent on the market, rice does not have any competitiveness.

I don't understand why they have this idea?

In terms of foundation, food is no worse than remote micro blog.

Of course, it's not only for food, but also for my personal future. "

Li Dong laughed again and couldn't help saying, "are you serious?"

Wang Xin nodded his head seriously and then said, "that's why I want to go to the distance and have a real experience.

I have even moved the idea, quietly to the role of failure, to remote micro blog applications, I want to see, where is the gap between us.

I don't think it's the function. It's the idea, the management, the concept and the future that make the rice fail.

But I think for a long time, as an ordinary employee to go to the remote microblog, it may not be so real, not so real.

That's why I hope that I can enter the remote microblog through Mr. Li.

Of course, I know that this requirement is too much, but I can sign an agreement. After I come out from afar, I will no longer operate we media platform and will not compete with distant places. "

Li Dong was speechless. He couldn't help crying and laughing: "is that why you came to me?"

Wang Xin laughed and said, "of course, in addition to this, I really want to see Mr. Li.

Really, I've been looking forward to it for a long time.

Since 2007, I have been hoping to have a talk with Mr. Li to make up for my shortcomings.

I'm 29 years old, and I'm about to reach my tenth birthday.

However, I am a little confused now. I have communicated with many people, including Mr. Chen of Qianxiang, Mr. Zhou of Qihu, and even Mr. Ma of Tencent.

However, they always tell me that you are still young and there are infinite possibilities for the future.

Several predecessors are praising me, saying that I have done a good job, only because I am young, coupled with the lack of a bit of luck, which has caused this situation.

At the beginning, I also used to regard youth as a reason, as an excuse.

But when I know the total existence of Li, I think, I really failed, young is not an excuse for failure.

On a year-on-year basis, whether it is Baidu or Alibaba, or Sina, the predecessors of these companies, I have no intention to see them again.

I really want to talk to Mr. Li. What else do I lack that will make me fail again and again? "

Li Dong wanted to laugh. For the first time, someone consulted himself with a serious and expectant attitude. Why did he fail?

How far is he from success?

What is Li Dong's attitude towards life and the secret of success?

Li Dong must be too lazy to answer this question.

But Wang Xin, in the industry is also a top talent, no matter can be closed, always can not say nothing.

Li Dong pondered for a moment. After a while, he said with a smile: "the question Mr. Wang asked is actually quite profound. If you come to another person, I will definitely talk to him about the philosophy of life.

Of course, I'm young myself. If I really want to say that, it might make people laugh.

The philosophy of life will not be discussed. It is meaningless to pretend to be deep.

Mr. Wang has been here twice, and I like to deal with people of my age, so I'll say something simple. Mr. Wang understands what's right and what's wrong. "

As soon as Wang Xin's eyes brightened, he even said, "Mr. Li, I think your high theory will certainly help me."

"That's very kind of you. Forget it. I'll call you by your name. Mr. Wang is too unfamiliar.

You can just call me by my name. It's not a subordinate relationship. It's very tense to meet and talk in private. "

Li Dong said, unbuttoned a button, leaned back on the sofa and relaxed. He said with a smile, "I have known about your situation.

You ask me, why did you fail?

In my opinion, it's very simple!

First, you have no money

Wang Xin's face is embarrassed and nonsense. Of course I know that I don't have money, but who just started to start a business has money.

Don't we all go to finance and find funds for development?

Why didn't it work when you came to me?

Li Dong looked at him, not flustered not busy way: "say you have no money, you must think, this is not nonsense?"

Although Wang Xin thinks so, it's not so easy for Li Dong. Li Dong is a big man in the industry. It's not good to offend him. Wang Xin said in a hurry: "Mr. Li misunderstood me. I don't mean that."Although Li Dong asked him to call him by his first name, he chose the honorific title.

Li Dong said with a smile: "it doesn't matter if it doesn't matter. I'll talk about my understanding.

You may think that other people have no money. Why can I succeed, but I can't?

You probably forget that age is also a problem in different times and personal experiences.

When Ma Yun started his business, was anyone willing to give him a chance?

Before he founded Ali, he also made many websites, and all of them failed.

Ma Yun's Ali is the result of his failure many times.

However, Tencent was short of money at the beginning, and its business was poor. Ma Huateng almost sold it to several hundred thousand yuan. Finally, he came back from the dead. It can only be said that luck is on his side.

Baidu is more simple, people are first rich and then start a business.

Before Li Yanhong started his own business, Xu Yong gave money to help him and took him everywhere to invest. When he got the money, people began to work hard.

You're different. You don't have any experience, you start a business before you finish your studies, and no one invests in you in advance.

And the SNS website that you do, have identical website abroad, say a bit more thoroughly, that is to imitate.

You are like me, I'm not saying that imitation is bad. Baidu is also imitation. Most of the domestic Internet enterprises are imitation.

I can't make it for you.

In the field of the Internet, with the existence of the same things, your things are not worth money, at least at a certain stage of money, this thing is not worth money.

Why did I succeed?

If I was penniless at the beginning and got a distant shopping mall out, do you think someone would look after me and invest in me?

It's just bullshit!

If I have money, I will do this again. It will be different. In the initial stage, I don't need to ask for help.

When I got through the initial stage, my products were built, my customers had them, and I had successful precedents here, so others came to invest in me.

It is normal for capital institutions, like ordinary people, to act in the wind.

Therefore, young people nowadays, if they want to succeed, they have to go through many failures, or they will have money, and they will not ask for help.

Otherwise, success is too difficult.

There may be a day of success, but this time will be extended by five years, ten years, or even longer. "

Although Wang Xin felt that Li Dong said something absolutely, he still nodded to see that the other side was a big man.

Li Dong didn't mind what he thought, and went on: "second, you didn't meet a noble person. Take good care of your noble person."

Wang Xin mouth began to twitch again, or nonsense!

What you said at the Internet Conference was very good. Why did you talk nonsense when you came to me?

Of course, I know I didn't meet a noble person, but since I said it was a noble person, how could I meet so easily.

Wang Xin doubted that Li Dong was deliberately making fun of himself.

But if you think about it carefully, it's not right. Li Dong is a big man. Now he is just a small person who failed to start a business. Li Dong doesn't need to amuse him on purpose.

Li Dong looked at his face and said with a smile: "I mean it. Your ability is not bad. You also have executive power. You can see the overall situation fairly well.

With these points, we have reached the threshold of success.

But now, you need a push.

Now, if you don't have a good reputation, it's not like that. Qianxiang's financing has been successful, and you have taken the opportunity to make a fire of it. However, it's not a good reputation. There are not a few people who scold you as a fool.

Bad reputation, want money, no money, want people, no one.

In this case, if you want to start a business now, it is more difficult to succeed than before.

You want to start a business and ask for others. In my opinion, your starting point is wrong.

At this time, you should choose to settle down, settle for a few years, lay a good foundation, make connections, and attract funds. At that time, it is time for you to soar. "

Wang Xin, thoughtfully, repeated, "lay a foundation, make connections, and pull funds?"

"Yes, those are the three points. You have done it. In fact, success is near at hand."

Wang Xin smiles bitterly. It's easy to say, but hard to do.

Li Dong added: "don't think it's difficult. In fact, these three points can be carried out at the same time.

Don't you say you want to work in remote micro blog?

If you go far away, you can lay a solid foundation and lay a solid foundation. Now, various vcpe institutions are dealing with us, and they are also the top capital institutions in the world.

In addition to them, the predecessors of the Internet industry often contact with the distance.

You've gone far away, contacts and foundations, and that's it.

As for funds, with the first two points, you will be famous in the distance, and you are afraid that no one will look after you? "

Wang Xin's eyebrows fluttered for a while. He suddenly understood what Li Dong wanted to say.Struggling for a while, Wang Xincai said dryly, "Mr. Li, what do you mean?"

"My meaning is simple, you said to go to the remote microblog for a few months, what can you see in a few months? What kind of contacts can you make? What kind of fame can you make?

Give yourself a little more time, three years, three years to hone yourself, three years to precipitate yourself.

After three years, you can choose to leave or not.

At that time, if you left and started your own business, you would be more successful than now. If you do well and others don't support you, I will support you.

If you don't leave, it means that the development prospect in the distance is bigger than that of your personal entrepreneurship, so I don't need to say anything. "

Wang Xin's mouth is wide, which will make him understand!

Li Dong is not talking nonsense in front of him. He is preparing to work for him!

How many months is enough, three years to start!

You want money without money, you want people without people, you want fame without fame, you want noble people but not noble people

Now, you've gone far away, and you've got everything!

Money, Li Dong will support you in three years. Li Dong is the most important person. The premise is still three years later!

But the key point is that he just wants to study far away for a few months.

Well, it's a bit too much, but I didn't want to work for you for three years.

Wang Xin would like to refuse, and would like to say, I want to continue to start a business.

But Wang Xin was hesitant. What Li Dong said was not all nonsense. He really wanted to settle down in the distance for three years. After three years, he would go back to the mountain again. Maybe it was better than now.

At least, if he did the right thing, and Li Dong, a tycoon, supported himself, he would not have to ask for help.

And if a new venture fails, maybe three years will pass.

When he hesitated, Li Dong said with a smile: "in fact, there is nothing to consider. Go to a distance and try it. You can come to me before the national day.

If you don't come after the national day, it's OK. Again, it means that you are not decisive enough. This is not the helper I want, and I won't accept you from afar.

As far as I am concerned, there is no shortage of people, but who makes everyone young? I like to deal with young people

Li Dong said that he was old-fashioned, but Wang Xin could not refute it.

After thinking about it for a while, Wang Xin said softly, "thank you, Mr. Li. I'll give you a reply before the national day."

"I hope to have the opportunity to work together."

Li dongke set out a few words and sent off some confused Wang Xin.

When he left, Li Dongcai couldn't help laughing and said: "it's cool to deceive people. No wonder old ma always likes to cheat."

Bai Su's hand shaking while he was tidying up the tea set. After a long time, he helplessly said, "Mr. Li, I don't think you're fooling. Many people can't come far away. It's his honor."

"Nice flattery." Li Dong joked and vomited: "there is no helmsman on the microblog side. I just met a suitable one. Otherwise, it would be useless to fool him."

Bai Su's heart is shocked, micro blog helmsman?

Weibo was separated from remote technology by Li Dong last time, and the CEO candidate has not been determined.

Now, Liu Hong is still in charge of this position. Many people are thinking of this position. Unexpectedly, Li Dong thinks of Wang Xin.

Is this four eyed man really up to the task?

Li Dong didn't say much about it. Wang Xin on Weibo is really suitable. At the right time, it's not impossible to get a beauty group out.

O2o in the distance is on the right track, and the logistics system is becoming more and more stable.

With the promotion of wanjia.com, to tell you the truth, meituan's promotion in the distance is 100 times easier than that of other enterprises.

Since there are ready-made candidates, it is not a loss to recruit them.

As for whether Wang Xin will come or not, Li Dong doesn't care too much.

It's a good thing to come, but it's not good. I'll find someone else myself.

In the past two years, the reputation of remote science and technology has become more and more famous. It is not difficult to find a few senior talents.

Without thinking about this, Li Dong got up and stretched himself and said, "clean up and go back to Jiangbei tomorrow."

Bai Su nodded in a hurry and did not think about Wang Xin.
