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

Zhou Hao carefully recalled Tencent’s financing records in his previous life.

Financing for this company is very simple. At the beginning of his business, in order to raise operating funds, Xiao Ma sold 1999% of his shares to two companies as early as 40. IDG and Hong Kong Yingke Digital invested a total of US$220 million, each with a share of 20% stake in Tencent.

At the exchange rate of that year, 220 million US dollars was almost million.

Assuming that 1999 was Tencent's Series A financing, the equity transaction that took place in June 2001 was not financing, but a South African company acquired shares from Hong Kong Pacific Century Group, IDG and even Tencent's management, and had nothing to do with financing.

However, Tencent only relied on Series A financing to develop all the way until it was listed in Hong Kong in 2004 and became the first Chinese Internet stock. The reason is that they have abundant cash support.

In other words, Tencent is very good at making money. Their value-added services based on QQ have been operating for a long time and have been very successful. If they had not emerged out of nowhere and diverted Tencent's attention twice, they would have continued to develop in this way until they went public, without the need for any capital investment, because they are not only self-sufficient, but also able to accumulate a large amount of cash.

Historically, Tencent also used its strong cash flow to continuously arm its own wings. If they did not develop Q Bar or QQ Fishing Farm, they would then develop QQ games, portals, and continuously improve QQ product functions and user experience. , find better cash cows to build a powerful penguin empire.

But the current development trajectory of the Internet is no longer what it was in the previous life. There is a huge bug in the Internet industry now, and this bug is Zhou Hao.

Zhou Hao originally only planned to develop apps to seize the instant messaging market, but he did not expect that Tencent would target him. In the past, there was a Q bar that imitated Tieba, and later there was a fish farm that imitated the farm. So Zhou Hao superficially stuck to these two star products, but secretly However, it used its accumulated technology and product reserves to drag Tengxun into a vortex similar to an arms war.

At the same time, the PP that was secretly developing is about to be completed.

Zhou Hao began to look forward to the day when the app would be launched, and how Tencent would react and struggle at that moment.

After reviewing Tencent's development history, Zhou Hao set a goal for himself: Haobo Technology will not raise funds within two years and must rely on strong profitability to achieve self-sufficiency!

At 11:55, continuous firecrackers were heard outside. Yao An attached great importance to setting off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year, and the firecrackers at midnight were particularly important. Father Zhou opened Zhou Hao's door and said, "Haozi, go downstairs to set off the firecrackers. Your second uncle and your aunt are also going to the hotel."

Zhou Hao nodded, got dressed and went out, bringing with him a 20,000-ring firecracker. The whole family came downstairs. Zhou Hao spread the whole plate of firecrackers on the roadside, lit a cigarette and started to twist the firecrackers. It burned, crackled and exploded, and everyone wished each other a happy New Year.

The sound of firecrackers bids farewell to the old year. For traditional Chinese people, the new year begins after midnight.

Zhou Hao's cell phone text messages started ringing non-stop, most of them were classmates, and a few were core employees of the company.

Zhao Yueying sent a text message: "Happy New Year!"

Zhou Hao replied: "Happy New Year dear, are you free tomorrow? I miss you."

Zhao Yueying Ye Hui said: "I miss you too, but I don't have time tomorrow."

Zhou Hao asked: "When will you have time?"

Zhao Yueying said: "I have to visit relatives tomorrow and eat dumplings tonight. I have to go to my grandmother's house on the second day of the New Year. My aunt's family will come from Beijing on the third day. I'm very busy these days, but I will definitely make time to accompany you, but I won't be able to eat with you."

Zhou Hao said: "Anything is fine, it depends on your arrangement."

Lou Xinyu also sent a text message: "Happy New Year, little rascal."

Zhou Hao smiled and immediately replied: "Happy New Year, baby."

Lou Xinyu replied after a few minutes: "Do you miss them?"

Zhou Hao was startled, when did Lou Xinyu become so bold? I flirted a few more words, but all I could think of was the scene in the car that night...

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, when I get up, I first pay New Year greetings to my grandparents, parents, and parents.

After breakfast, Zhou Hao prepared to go to his uncle's house to wish his grandparents a happy new year. He met his uncle and aunt's families downstairs. They came together today to wish Zhou Hao's parents a happy new year. Zhou Hao wished them a happy new year and drove to his uncle's house.

At the same time, Guo Kaiyu remotely directed the core technical team of Happy Farm and silently began to prepare for the new version update.

Since Happy Farm has already become a game with tens of millions of users, a lot of technical preparations need to be done to ensure the smooth update of the new version. Therefore, even Zhou Hao is not clear about the specific time node. He only told Guo Kaiyu: as soon as possible.

When the opponent Mou Zujin attacks with all his strength, only by being able to give a powerful counterattack in the shortest time can you best highlight your own strength and damage the opponent's morale. Zhou Hao wants to let QQ Fishing Farm understand one thing. Kaixin Farm's technology and product development They are more than an era ahead of them, and you can't catch up no matter how hard you run.

……

On New Year's Day, CCTV has three channels that rebroadcast the Spring Festival Gala at different times. Dreamtime is popular, Sketch King's sketches are also popular, and QQ Fishing Ground is also popular.

In 2002, ordinary people were still naive and did not understand the routines of later generations. Ten years later, when people see a certain brand in any sketch, article, film or TV series, they will think of product placement the first time, but most of the people today have not yet realized the meaning of this.

Most people think that the big scam is really interesting, and they actually play games like QQ Fishing Ground that only young people can play.

The daily activity of QQ Fishing, which had already dropped to 10,000 people, started to show signs of recovery after the Spring Festival Gala. As of 6 p.m. on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the daily activity of QQ Fishing reached one million, an increase of 20 times.

Many users who had played QQ Fishing Ground before but gave up on it came in again because of the Spring Festival Gala and found that the game had been greatly improved and looked quite interesting. In addition, there were also friends in the friend list who were active, so they gave it a try. Have fun.

Tencent is very satisfied with the response. They spent millions and special relationships to win an advertisement from Sketch King. During this period, the closed development of the new version of QQ Fishery also consumed a lot of their technical reserves. It can be said that, Teng Xun has put a lot of effort into this game. They want this game to return to one million daily users, and they also hope that this game can bring them six or even seven figures in daily revenue.

For the new version of QQ Fishery, Zuo Hongsheng replaced the previous product manager and hired an architect from South Korea at a high salary. He also transferred QQ's product manager over. The collaboration between the two has created today's QQ Fishery. Zuo Hongsheng is very satisfied with the new version of QQ Fishery. With the new processing system, the gaming experience instantly became three-dimensional and more fun to play. Now the team is also developing more processing props and working hard to enhance the playability of the game.

If it weren't for the Spring Festival Gala, Zuo Hongsheng would not let qq fishery be updated at this time. Instead, he would wait another half month for the processing system to be developed more fully before going online. However, he still adopted Mr. Ma's suggestion. Now qq Fishing Farm has been greatly improved compared to the previous version. In addition to imitating Happy Farm, it also has its own unique elements. Although the new elements are not yet mature, the Spring Festival Gala only happens once a year. If you want to counterattack Happy Farm, you must seize it. Seize the opportunity.

Just after six o'clock, Zuo Hongsheng finished writing the latest data report and sent it to Mr. Ma by email. Then he left the study and said, "Wife, are the dumplings cooked? I'm hungry."

Zuo Hongsheng came to the restaurant in a good mood. His three-year-old son was already holding the bowl and chewing the dumplings in the bowl with a spoon. Zuo Hongsheng sat next to his son and picked up a dumpling with chopsticks. "Let me try my wife's cooking first."

After saying that, he put the dumpling in his mouth and was about to bite it when his cell phone rang.

It turned out to be the person in charge of the technical department. After answering the call, Zuo Hongsheng did not expect that the other party would almost cry and say, "It's over, Mr. Zuo, Happy Farm has been updated again..."
