Rebirth 2006, creating a super consortium

"An, how is it? Are these dishes to your taste?"

After swallowing the indescribable food in his mouth, An Xin looked up at Lucy Elizabeth Morgan, only to see that she was looking at him expectantly, like a kitten waiting for praise from its owner!

An Xin really couldn't bear to dampen her lover's expectations, so she had to suppress her strong desire to complain and praised him against her will: "Lucy, that's so good!"

"Really?" After receiving An Xin's praise, Lucy Elizabeth Morgan's beautiful eyes sparkled, and her fair face was filled with joy. She picked up the chopsticks with her right hand and began to pick up food for An Xin. While picking up food, she said with a smile: "WOW, I didn't expect that I actually have some talent as a chef!"

"In that case, An, you should eat more!"

WTF!

Looking at the dishes piling up higher and higher in front of him, An Xin felt like he was shooting himself in the foot, and his heart was extremely bitter!

The meals cooked by Lucy Elizabeth Morgan herself are extremely unpalatable!

That's really disgusting!

Some are either too salty or too sweet, or even both. What’s even more outrageous is that some dishes even have a slight bitter taste!

An Xin could swear to God that he had never eaten such disgusting Chinese food in his entire two lifetimes!

Hard to swallow?

That's all compliments!

But there is no other way. I have to finish this loving dinner I have arranged, no matter how bad it tastes, with tears in my eyes!

"call…"

After taking a deep breath, An Xin quickly adjusted his mentality. He looked like he was going to the battlefield. He picked up the chopsticks with a fearless attitude and quickly started eating with his eyes closed!

About half an hour later, An Xin, who had lost all hope in life, turned into a puddle of mud and lay on the sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling, unable to come back to her senses for a long time...

Da da da…

After clearing the dishes, Lucy Elizabeth Morgan walked over slowly. When she saw An Xin, who looked like she had lost all hope in life, she walked over unhappily and patted An Xin's thigh, saying softly, "An, you actually ate all of this disgusting Chinese food. To be honest, this is not like your style!"

After rubbing his slightly sore eyes, An Xin looked up at Lucy Elizabeth Morgan, who seemed to be smiling, and said with a wry smile: "Lucy, this is the loving dinner you carefully prepared. Even if it tastes bad, I can only bite the bullet and swallow it!"

"You deserve it!" Lucy Elizabeth Morgan rolled her eyes at An Xin in annoyance, then changed the subject and said, "Of course, this is the price you pay for being fickle!"

"The price of being unfaithful?" An Xin was happy, and then she reached out and hugged Lucy Elizabeth Morgan. After feeling the fragrant jade in her arms, she said with a sly smile: "Okay, then I will exercise my right to be unfaithful now!"

"STOP!" After struggling to break free from An Xin's embrace, Lucy Elizabeth Morgan tidied up her messy clothes, then looked at An Xin who looked puzzled and said, "An, I have something serious to talk to you about!"

An Xin raised her eyebrows, shrugged indifferently, and responded: "OK, go ahead!"

“Do you know how many registered users Twitter currently has?”

"Registered users?" An Xin thought for a moment and responded, "It seems to be around 5100 million, right?"

"No, 5100 million is the data from a month ago. Twitter's latest registered users have grown to 5350 million!" Lucy Elizabeth Morgan corrected the data with a smile, but the smile soon disappeared: "Then do you know how many registered users Facebook currently has?"

"Facebook?" An Xin thought for a moment and said, "It seemed to be around 3300 million a month ago. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Lucy Elizabeth Morgan nodded slightly and said, "Ann, you are right. Facebook did have only about 3300 million registered users a month ago, but their latest registered users have exceeded 3900 million!"

"In other words, in the past month, Facebook has added 600 million new users, which is 350 million more than Twitter has added!"

"An extra 350 million?"

An Xin was very surprised by this.

This is unlikely. You know, whether in terms of playability, convenience, or even innovation, Twitter is much better than Facebook!

In this case, how can Facebook break through Twitter's siege?

After a little thought, An Xin looked up at Lucy Elizabeth Morgan and said in a deep voice: "Lucy, come on, tell me what happened in the past month!"

Lucy Elizabeth Morgan nodded slightly, then raised two fingers to An Xin and said, "Two things happened on Facebook in the past month!"

"First, Facebook launched its Series C financing. Microsoft, European Founders Fund, and Li Ka Shing Family Trust formed a joint investment group and provided Facebook with $3 million in funding, which also increased Facebook's valuation to $30 billion!"

"Secondly, Facebook changed its operation strategy. In addition to basic website optimization, in terms of new market development, Facebook deliberately avoided Twitter's edge and began to focus on developing the European and Southeast Asian markets. It must be said that this strategy is very effective. With the help of the joint investment group's channels, Facebook has achieved significant results in these two emerging markets, and the user growth is very rapid!"

After patiently listening to Lucy Elizabeth Morgan's report, An Xin fell into deep thought.

I have to say that Mark Zuckerberg is really smart. He actually found the only way for Facebook to survive!

You know, ever since Lucy Elizabeth Morgan decided to step forward and take control of Twitter, Twitter has actually had no rivals in the American market!

There is no other reason, America is still the home of the Morgan family after all!

In this era when the Internet is still in its infancy, major financial groups do not attach much importance to the Internet industry. There is even no direct descendant of a super family who is personally engaged in the Internet industry!

In this case, Lucy Elizabeth Morgan's identity is too transcendent. Even if she uses some means outside the rules to deal with her competitors, no one would dare to gossip!

After all, we all have been through this, and who doesn’t have a pile of shit on their butt?

Anxin is well aware of this advantage, and is intentional about it, letting it go!

Mark Zuckerberg is not stupid either. After several real fights with Twitter, he gradually realized that something was wrong!

They can’t afford to spend money, they dare not copy, and they dare not even think of other tricks!

But even in this situation where there seemed to be no way out, Mark Zuckerberg was able to get funds from the joint investment group. Not only did he succeed in getting the funds, he also played a game of avoiding the edge of Twitter, found another way, and walked out of another unique path!

I have to say, this Jewish man is truly a rare genius in the Internet industry!

However, although these tricks are very effective and Facebook has achieved remarkable results as a result, it is a pity that in the face of absolute strength, Facebook's final outcome is still vulnerable!

Seeing An Xin in silence, Lucy Elizabeth Morgan couldn't help but remind her, "An Xin, we can't just sit back and let Facebook continue to grow wildly. We must take necessary measures to deal with Facebook as a competitor!"

"Don't be anxious!" An Xin shook her head with amusement and continued to comfort her: "Lucy, in fact, whether it is financial resources, innovation, or connections, Facebook can never be our opponent!"

"To be honest, our only opponent is ourselves!"

"We just need to proceed step by step and steadily advance our established plans!

“As for those little Facebook tricks?”

"To be honest, those little tricks won't have any bad effects on us at all. They are just a last-ditch effort!"

An Xin's strong self-confidence made Lucy Elizabeth Morgan feel more at ease, but she still had some doubts about it: "An, having said that, social networking sites are still more dependent on acquaintances, and Facebook's fission model has a considerable advantage in this regard. We can't take it lightly!"

"Wrong!" An Xin immediately shook her head and retorted: "Lucy, you obviously confused social networking sites with instant messaging!"

"Acquaintance deduction?"

“That’s the core competitiveness of instant messaging!”

“What is the core competitiveness of social networking sites?”

"share!"
