Fight to the third generation

Nangong Tian, ​​who heard the news, was speechless at the moment, with black lines all over her forehead, and said in surprise, "So...you plan to spend so much money to buy a piece of land next to it because of the little hippopotamus defecation? More than 2 million Hong Kong dollars , Just buying a luxury house is enough, even if you have money, you can’t spend it like this.”

Su Yehao disagreed, and argued:

"The price of the land has dropped, and it won't reduce their value just because I expand the yard. It's like investing. I haven't thought about how to plan it. Didn't you say that some manor, the garden is beautiful? After buying the land You can imitate the construction, and if you dig a large man-made lake and take a walk after dinner, it will be very comfortable. As for money, I can always earn more in the future, so I don’t seem to need to think about it.”

Nangong Tian thought for a while, and reminded: "The Canadian Butcher Garden in the magazine?"

After a few seconds of her heart fluttering, reason still overwhelmed her impulse, and she couldn't laugh or cry: "I really admire you. You always have an idea every day. If you really buy such a large piece of land and use it as a yard, you will be scolded to death."

"No, they will scold me and envy me at the same time."

Su Yehao spread his hands, sighed and told, "Impulsive consumption, how can I not be impulsive, I have been weighing the gains and losses, the desire to consume has been suppressed for too long, and it is rare to find something that I want to spend money to enjoy."

"...You said the same thing before buying a private jet."

Nangong Tian was surprised for a moment, then after thinking about it, she felt that it was not a big deal.

As Su Yehao said, even if they are built into courtyards, their value will not be changed. When they want to build a house in the future, they can still apply for construction, and transfer to the outside world is also feasible.

Facing Su Yehao, it was always difficult for her to maintain her own opinion.

Between three words.

The two of them began to discuss how to plan and design the land if they really bought it.

From an investment point of view, it is necessary to consider the income, the market, the risk cost, etc., but when buying land to expand the size of the yard, there is no need to think about it. How to make it comfortable and beautiful is all about enjoyment.

When he calmed down, Su Yehao had a new idea.

He told Xiao Nizi: "If I really do this, I should give a lot of limelight. Considering the value of my house itself, it may be no problem to compete for the title of No. [-] mansion in Hong Kong City. It will be good for me at that time." The benefits may be scolded miserably, but the rewards are even more astonishing."

"Return? Where?"

"On the Internet companies and venture capital companies I founded. Think about it, as long as the news spreads to the mainland, how many people will know me? They will notice the software I invest in. Popularity often equals wealth, just like celebrities. Others can also be more confident when talking about cooperation. Low-key has the advantage of being low-key, and high-profile has the advantage of being high-key. The reason why the products I develop are not popular may be because I am too low-key and lack of exposure.”

Su Yehao's words sounded like he was making excuses for impulsive consumption, but after thinking about it, Nangong Tian felt that it made sense.

She frowned slightly, thinking a lot in her head, and finally said with a serious tone:

"That's right. Other businessmen rushed to the news, but all your interviews were pushed. You said that the growth rate of users was slower than expected. The problem may be due to the popularity. The company lacks a star entrepreneur. The richest man is Lao Li. The family is often called a vampire, but the business has not yet taken off, because everyone knows that he is rich, and everyone wants to cooperate with him..."

Chapter 280 International Version TAT

When playing investment, it doesn't matter if you keep a low profile.

Now if you want to sell your products, you need popularity and marketing strategies.

Simply choosing rigid advertisements for publicity will not only cost a lot, but the effect may not be very good. The more Su Yehao thinks about it now, the more he feels that it is better to "proactively dedicate himself" and create some topics to attract attention, which may be able to achieve miraculous results.

Others in the company couldn't bear the burden of supporting the scene. Only Su Yehao himself could gain attention for this matter.

It is undoubtedly not an easy science to create topics and create a persona in the minds of the public.

Everyone is happy when the positioning is set, but if it is not set well, it may be criticized by thousands of people, so Su Yehao made a temporary decision to ask people to set up a special public relations team to recruit talents from the entertainment circle and the official circle, and brainstorm...

Pei Xinyao and his wife came to Hong Kong City that night and invited Su Yehao to dinner at the golf club.

Regarding the villa land, Su Yehao wanted to buy it, and the couple wanted to sell it. It took 5 minutes during the meeting to negotiate a price of 500 million Hong Kong dollars, which was more than 2000 million yuan lower than the price they offered last time. Land prices are trending down all the way, and everyone is happy.

Xiao Nizi accompanied him to dinner, and found that Brother Hao was very calm when talking about business worth more than [-] million yuan. He thought to himself that he was different from before, and became mature, stable, and super attractive.

It's just a simple transaction, and there is no difference that needs to be played.

Before leaving, the couple specially gave Su Yehao two bottles of whiskey. It is an old wine brewed by Yunding Distillery in 1919. It has been bottled for 79 years. It was bottled in 1970. It is packed in a gift box made of cowhide. Today the market price is around £[-] a bottle.

Su Yehao has never been used to drinking whiskey, but this stuff has already belonged to his collection. After thanking him, he went home with a gift and contacted the bank again to pay for himself.

If there is no accident, a large open space next door can be taken within two or three days.

As for how to plan and design, professional designers will be invited to help. Counting the construction cost, the total value of the garden is as high as [-] to [-] million Hong Kong dollars.

……

First Quanye Bank is still so reliable.

As long as Su Yehao's demand is reasonable, they dare to provide loans, the approval speed is extremely fast, and they can lend money at any time.

The land transfer contract was still being drawn up, so Su Yehao first took the time to have a meal with Uncle Qiu's son, Qiu Yaohe, in the Taiping Pavilion. During the period, they drank and chatted, and the atmosphere was a bit chilly.

There is a few years difference in age between the two parties, and the conversation is not speculative.

After eight o'clock, after Su Yehao came home, Nangongtian prepared a cup of yogurt for him, and asked curiously:

"Come back so early, how did you chat with him, did that guy give up?"

"Generally, I want to persuade him to invest, but that guy is thinking about my TAT communication company, and he said that he bought my project for 8000 million. It seems that he is determined to enter this business."

When I first heard about the Chinese New Year, Su Yehao was nervous for a while, but after a few days, he is quite calm now.

For my own side, I need funds and talents, and there is no lack of long-term planning. When Qiu Yaohe tosses out the products, maybe the mainland and the surrounding markets of Hong Kong City have been completely taken over by TAT. The second generation rivalry.

Nangongtian exclaimed after listening, "8000 million? Brother Hao, your company is so valuable!"

"It's only Hong Kong dollars. The business has just started. 8000 million is nothing. If you give me [-] million, I won't sell it."

Su Yehao took off his jacket, and then said: "Don't act like you haven't seen the world, my company is going to the giants like Microsoft and Oracle, and then I will make a fortune and go to Hawaii to buy an island for me. you play."

"Okay, you will be the owner of the island, I will be Mrs. Yazhai, and Jiang Yu will be the maid."

As soon as Xiao Nizi finished speaking, Jiang Yu, who was innocently involved, looked blank, and then rolled his eyes, too lazy to answer this.

After only drinking half a bottle of red wine, Su Yehao was not drunk at all. Sitting on the sofa at this moment, he continued to tell:

"Just now I saw Uncle Qiu's son showing his sharpness, and he proposed to buy my company when he came up. He interrupted what I wanted to say, and I didn't have any appetite for dinner. Facing a person like him, three cows can't be pulled back. I'm afraid it will be very difficult. It's hard for him to give up, but there are so many failed start-up companies, it may not be in my way, maybe he will lose all his money before he grows up."

Hearing this, Jiang Yu tilted his head and asked, "I heard you say before that you want to earn money in the European and American markets. How is the situation recently?"

"I don't feel very good. I am a sole proprietor of a company in Hong Kong City. Others can't make money, so of course they won't take me to play. First, there is no exposure, and second, there is a lack of support from all aspects. It is difficult to stand out. of."

Su Yehao drank the yogurt, and after thinking briefly, he said:

"TAT's personal space is too closed, which means that it only interacts with friends. We like this model, and it may be uncomfortable to put it in the European and American markets. They are careless and like to socialize. I think I should consider re-developing a product specifically for the European and American markets. Repositioning and redesigning, the speed of network transmission is getting faster and faster, the 3G standard will come out in a few years, and a new market will be born at that time."

before.

Su Yehao felt that it would be enough to take part of the mainland's Internet market share, and the profits would be so big that he could survive. However, the number of Internet users in the mainland currently does not exceed one million, and the development speed is too slow, and the ceiling is too low.

In the short term, Su Yehao's entrepreneurial enthusiasm was limited by the narrow market space.

In this case, it is reasonable to shift the target to overseas markets.

It's just that he has been worried that bringing out ideas too early will attract unnecessary competition. He always feels that he is constrained by the level of technological development and the opportunity for barbaric growth has not yet come.

For example, the TAT instant chat program, similar projects with obvious signs of imitation have appeared in the mainland and nearby markets recently. Although no more advanced products have appeared yet, risks do exist.

If Su Yehao didn't want to find a way to expand rapidly, he would be leaving room for others to develop. Even if he developed a product, it would still be easy to make wedding dresses for others.

There are people imitating it in the mainland, not to mention in the American market where masters gather.

Maybe someone else will get inspiration from Su Yehao's industry and quickly develop a more popular product. Wouldn't that be a tragedy?

Based on this consideration.

Similar to Facebook's idea, Su Yehao has never brought it up, and wants to wait until the market matures.

The so-called maturity probably means that after the network transmission speed is sufficient to support fast loading of pictures, the number of netizens will inevitably increase by then.

However, when he realized that Qiu Yaohe seemed to be stepping on his shoulders and going to the United States to open up the market, he felt that he had to speed up his pace.

We are considering making changes to TAT in response to the needs of the European and American markets, such as adding the "Nearby People" function, or an alumni function similar to Renren to enhance social interaction.

If an international version of TAT is independently split and operated separately from the current TAT, it will be easier to enter the European and American markets, obtain financial and technical support, and will not be hitched by others to occupy a share of the future mainland market. Cheap.

As soon as this idea came up, Su Yehao immediately felt capable. It was rare to indulge in work that night, and spent half an hour tinkering with a plan.

The next day, I handed over the plan to John Zhou, continued to improve it based on the general framework, and asked an agent for help, and registered a new company...

Chapter 281 TVT

In a blink of an eye, TAT Network Technology Company has been established for more than half a year.

Su Yehao likes to be a hand-off shopkeeper, which caused him to pay special attention to management experience when recruiting management personnel.

Priority is often given to talents who have been in charge and understand technology, and they always like to poach corners from large companies, which means that other companies have screened them first, and he picked up a ready-made one, and he would rather pay more for it.

The upper beam is not straight, and the lower beam is not crooked.

Up to now, although we have taken some detours, there is nothing wrong with the company's overall development direction.

Su Yehao seldom participated in specific management, and the group of executives under him were relatively relaxed, and the office atmosphere was pleasant and harmonious.

In order to keep this job with a good salary and a good future, these managements are still working hard and earnestly implementing various arrangements. Considering that the company is still not profitable today, and there is even no conflict of interest, they get together from time to time. After discussing, trying to satisfy Su Yehao.

The above is friendly, and the employees below are also comfortable.

We don't usually talk about competition, everyone is treated similarly, and there is no pressure on performance.

The salary is never delayed, and there is almost no overtime. Although the company does not make money, the benefits are quite good. The only thing that needs to be done is to honestly make the product well, that's all.

The corporate culture cultivated in a daze has deeply affected every new employee.

In this era when open source code is quite rare and development requires brains, programmers are in a happy mood and don’t have to be troubled by messy workplace worries. On the contrary, office efficiency is quite high. Although the development speed is a bit slow, it is better than being solid and reliable.

For example, the game Stealing Vegetables took nearly half a year to develop, and it was relatively mature when it first came out.

Although only three types of vegetables can be grown in total, and the image looks rustic, it is indeed the product that Su Yehao wants. He plans to wait until March when the program is upgraded before launching it on the market as a blockbuster product.

If the bosses of other companies are as idle as Su Yehao, the entrepreneurial business may have been cold for a long time.

It can only be said that he hired some excellent professional managers, and did not pay attention to short-term revenue data. He used the correct management method in the correct industry by accident.

His own management level has not improved.

However, the executives under him let go, and achieved unexpected results instead. They not only won a good reputation for the company, attracted more and more talents to join, but also formed a set of corporate ecology. Interacting with each other doesn't require Su Yehao to worry too much.

therefore.

Su Yehao often only needs to provide funds and provide development direction.

The mature executives will help solve many problems by themselves, and finally hand over the answer sheet to Su Yehao. It is a bit similar to the business model under the partnership system, but they only get wages and no shares.

Enterprises in Hong Kong City were already deeply influenced by British and American corporate cultures. In terms of professional manager system, they were far more mature than those in mainland China. This saved Su Yehao a lot of brain cells.

The plan to develop the international version of TAT started planning as soon as possible.

In order to be independent from the current TAT network technology company, not only another company registered in the Cayman Islands was created, but the corporate headquarters, management and development, finance, etc. had to be operated separately, and even the name had to be changed to avoid confusion among users and investors two products.

A few days later, when Su Yehao came to TAT.

John Zhou came to his office immediately and asked if he could think of a good name.

Su Yehao said decisively:

"After careful consideration, I think it's better to call it TVT. The new company is already registered. There is no one to help me at the moment, and I would like to ask you to help me build a framework. At that time, the global headquarters will be located in Hong Kong City or Singapore, and the headquarters will be arranged in Silicon Valley, you must consider the issue of taxes and fees, and I will find someone to arrange this. You just need to help me hire some talents, preferably Chinese, who can easily integrate into American culture.”

"..."

John Zhou is helpless, TVT, compared with TAT and TOT, only changed one letter. Does this need to be carefully considered?

Moreover, TVT used to be the internal code name of the portal website, but now it has been merged with the search engine and is called TOT.

After working for more than half a year, a tacit understanding has been cultivated.

He knew Su Yehao's temper, and he would disappear for several days if he didn't pay attention. Even if he stayed in the office, he mainly focused on fishing. If he could not disturb him, he would not disturb him. This was the most comfortable way.

"I can understand changing the name, but why do we need to register a new company? The two sides operate independently, so it costs an extra salary. We feel that there are few positionings that need to be adjusted, and the changes are relatively easy. took your money."

John Zhou had already pondered this question, but he couldn't figure it out.

After all, if it belongs to a company, it is actually quite easy, just set up an international affairs department, or arrange an overseas branch.

Su Yehao didn't say that he knew that the Internet ecosystem in the mainland would be closed for a long time, so it was better to operate separately from the beginning.

He made excuses and explained:

"The mainland business is likely to lose money for a long time, and the product demand is not all the same. I am worried that the money invested in the mainland will affect the valuation of our company by international venture capital institutions. It is better to operate separately."

"In addition, the implementation of two sets of plans is also conducive to success and avoids placing chips on the same gaming table. As for unnecessary internal friction in the development process, the two sides can maintain a close cooperative relationship. For example, TVT uses TAT's patents. Just pay according to the market price. TAT is my sole proprietorship. TVT is likely to raise funds in the short term. There is no need to save money for other shareholders. You know the rules of doing business in the United States better than me. Without the support of giants, it is difficult to open the market... "

After listening carefully.

John Zhou felt that it made sense, and with a worried tone, he asked tentatively:

"So in the future, should we focus on developing TA... Oh, no, TVT? Will my position be adjusted?"
