Become the richest man in the world starting from the rebirth of college entrance examination

Zhou Hao signed in with his company name, and then went to the conference center with other participants. The conference center was very large and could accommodate at least a thousand people. Four doors opened on both sides. There was a stage in the front row, and a huge spray-painted background behind it read : National 2001 Internet Conference.

There are hundreds of tables and chairs neatly placed under the stage. There is a card on each table with the company name written on it. There is a separate podium on the stage with ten on each side. Arranged in a fan shape, facing hundreds of seats, the cards placed on it are very delicate. Some of them are marked with the names of the leaders of the information department, and some are marked with the company + name.

Zhou Hao took a quick look and saw that the ten tables on the left side of the stage were all for big names.

The CEOs of NetEase, Sohu, and Groom, three companies that have been listed on Nasdaq, are all listed. In addition, there are Yahoo, Microsoft, and hardware manufacturers such as Lenovo, IBM, and HP.

Looking at this seating arrangement, Zhou Hao couldn't help but sigh. The biggest Internet celebrity he has dealt with since his rebirth is Baidu's Mr. Li. However, Mr. Li can only be considered second-rate in the industry.

The current front line is still big guys like Ding Lei, Zhang Suiyang, and Wang Zhidong. In the future, the bat troika will only be considered juniors in front of them.

Zhou Hao took the seating arrangement provided by the organizer of the conference and saw that the seat number of Haobo Technology was 232. According to the seat distribution, it was in the middle of the second row. Zhou Hao looked at the two companies around him. Laughing, 231 is Baidu, and 233 is Shen Haoshun’s venture capital company Mingshun Capital.

It would be normal if it was next to Baidu. After all, he was invited to the conference through Baidu in the first place, but it was a bit interesting for Mingshun Capital to be next to him. Shen Haoshun must have deliberately changed the seats.

Zhou Hao was looking at the seating chart when a hand suddenly put his shoulder. Turning his head, Shen Haoshun looked at himself with a smile: "I didn't even say hello to this conference. Fortunately, I had a whim yesterday and asked someone to find out if Haobo Technology was on the list. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known you were coming today."

Zhou Hao smiled and said, "Did you adjust the seats?"

"Yes." Shen Haoshun said casually, "I just wanted to say hello last night."

Zhou Hao nodded, Shen Haoshun was quite magnanimous.

Shen Haoshun said at this time: "You must be careful today. Haobo Technology will definitely be watched by the big guys attending the meeting today."

Zhou Hao asked him: "Is it because of the explosion of Tieba and Q Bar?"

"Yes." Shen Haoshun said: "Your Haobo Technology is now the most watched company in the Internet investment circle. The influence of Tieba has really shocked the industry. After this incident, Tieba will definitely reach a higher level. It will soon become a national hot spot, and Tengxun really made a wedding dress for you this time.”

Zhou Hao said with a helpless smile: "You guys are still well-informed about investing."

Shen Haoshun laughed, "After this incident is over, you can strike while the iron is hot and melt the B round, and you will definitely be able to estimate a good price."

Zhou Hao smiled lightly and said, "Let's take a look."

Although Zhou Hao seems to be in no hurry about round B financing, he has been thinking about round B financing in his heart.

Haobo Technology is about to usher in a spurt of development. He has to find connections and backers for the B-round financing, so he has several hard requirements for the B-round financing.

First, it accepts investment from Internet companies, and second, it does not accept investment from overseas investment banks. It's best to find investors with strong backgrounds and connections. Even if you suffer a little loss, it doesn't matter. You can quickly get a backer to join the team to ensure your safety after the B-round takes off in the future.

Zhou Hao also thought carefully about who to pull into the B round of Haobo Technology. Shen Haoshun has been showing favor to him in various ways, and his original intention is to invest in Haobo Technology. However, although the Shen Haoshun family is very powerful, Shen Haoshun's status in the Shen family A little worse, last time he was slapped in the face by his cousin Shen Haohua in the bowling alley. He basically has no ability to resist.

However, Ye Shao is a son of an official family and has a close relationship with him in the capital. He also has a good temper with me. If he can come in, Haobo Technology will have a solid background. However, Ye Shao certainly cannot directly invest in Haobo Technology. It’s like buying a stake in a nightclub and finding a spokesperson. From this point of view, Shen Haoshun is Ye Shao’s best choice for spokesperson. It would also be a good thing for Haobo Technology if they are allowed to come in in round B.

As soon as Zhou Hao and Shen Haoshun sat down at the corresponding seats, several people immediately gathered around them, asking about Zhou Hao's position at Haobo Technology, and even took out their business cards to exchange them with Zhou Hao.

I don’t know who suddenly said: “The people from Haobo Technology are here.”

As a result, more people gathered around.

Many people present have been staring at the location of Haobo Technology, waiting for people from Haobo Technology to appear. Recently, no Internet company can compare with Haobo Technology's popularity, and Haobo Technology has always been very low-key in the industry. It has a sense of mystery, which makes the industry very interested in the person behind it.

A lot of people gathered around hoping to exchange business cards, but Zhou Hao had never printed business cards before, so he had to tell the people around him: "I'm sorry, everyone, I haven't printed business cards yet, but I will keep your business cards and bring them back to the company." "

As soon as these words came out, everyone's interest in Zhou Hao suddenly decreased a lot. Zhou Hao's words easily made people think that he was just an ordinary employee who was arranged to go through the motions for the company. The reason why everyone was interested in Haobo Technology at the conference was, It was more about getting close to the boss of Haobo Technology, but no one guessed that the young man in front of him was the boss of Haobo Technology.

However, there were also sharp-eyed people who stared at Zhou Hao for a long time and said, "Oh, aren't you the Zhou Hao who was covered all over the TV stations some time ago?"

As soon as these words came out, people who had lost interest in Zhou Hao gathered around him again.

Someone asked Zhou Hao: "Zhou Hao, aren't you a ray of hope? Are you also involved in Haobo Technology?"

A person next to him said: "Haobo Technology, Haobo...Zhou Hao, Haobo Technology was founded by you, right?"

Zhou Hao knew that the industry was very well-informed. He really wanted to find out the details of Haobo Technology but he couldn't hide it, so he nodded openly and admitted: "Thank you for your concern. Haobo Technology was indeed founded by me."

At this moment, dozens of people around were stunned.

Although it had been expected for a long time, when Zhou Hao said it himself, many people still found it unbelievable.

Zhou Hao became famous in the Internet field because of the Ray of Hope. That project had too much exposure in the media, so everyone in the industry remembered Zhou Hao because of the Ray of Hope. They knew that this kid had built an online trading platform for college tutors. But like a fool, they announced that Light of Hope would not make a penny and would invest all net profits into the student fund.

At that time, many people in the industry lamented that a high-quality project with stable profits and strong cash flow was not designed to make money. Is this Zhou Hao's brain a fool?

Unexpectedly, there are still big money-making projects secretly. Haobo Technology was worth at least 300 to 400 million before the split. Although it has declined after the split, the influence of Tieba has been so great recently that it is enough for capital. Re-examining the valuation of Tieba, there may be capital now willing to give the valuation before the split.

A 19-year-old boy built an awesome website by himself, but not for the purpose of making money. This story makes people in the industry feel sad, and it can also help people in the industry find a psychological balance. Geniuses can also make fools, and geniuses who make fools are not jealous.

But now, the story has changed. The genius is not stupid not to make money from the Light of Hope, but has other ways to make money. The Light of Hope, Haobo Technology, and Wangwa Technology are all three projects he Yes, these three websites together are enough to crush most of the "well-known people" in the industry present today, and even throw away the well-known individual webmasters in China thousands of miles away.

Mr. Li from Baidu also arrived at this time. He squeezed through the crowd in surprise, only to find that the focus of the crowd was actually Zhou Hao.

Seeing Zhou Hao again, Mr. Li had mixed feelings. He originally thought that Zhou Hao's post bar would suffer heavy losses due to the Q Bar's offensive, and he wanted to take advantage of it when he was unable to defeat the Q Bar. Unexpectedly, the post bar exploded with millions of people. I gave Q Bar a loud slap in the face, and this slap was slapped in front of the whole country, which is equivalent to Q Bar being slapped. I also helped Tieba complete an unprecedented exposure. Now it’s better. Tieba’s popularity is not only The skyrocketing increase, along with the traffic volume, was also rising, which was simply a shocking reversal.

Mr. Li has always asked Luo Chenyi to monitor the data of Tieba. From the time when millions of people exploded on Tieba to now, Tieba's traffic has grown by an astonishing 30%. A large number of users come here with admiration for Tieba, and are attracted by Tieba's community attributes. As well as retaining a large amount of high-quality content, this result made Mr. Li very upset. Baidu had just converted its shares from Tieba to Wangwa.com, so why did he take off without paying attention?

Millions of people exploded. Others may not see the clues, but Mr. Li knew it. He knew that this matter must be done by Zhou Hao, because he knew that Zhou Hao had already raised a Zhihu Forum under his hands and organized a forum in it. A large-scale naval force.

"This guy is so smart..." Mr. Li looked at Zhou Hao with complicated eyes and sighed in his heart.

Wait a minute, this guy Zhou Hao is so smart, how come he is obsessed with navigation website?
