Chapter 272 Entrepreneurship Turtle

   "What? Are you leaving?"

   Looking at the resignation letter on the table, Xia Jingxing frowned and asked.

  "Dalun, thank you very much for the company's cultivation of me. Here, I am also very happy to work.

  However, I always have a dream of starting a business.

  So, I’m very sorry, I can’t accompany you to NASDAQ to ring the bell. "

   After finishing speaking, Yang Haoyong, who looked like a baby, lowered his head flushed red.

  He feels a little guilty for Xia Jingxing. The other party respects him very much and promotes him as the head of the cyber security department as soon as he enters the company.

  Furthermore, Facebook has issued a lot of options to him.

   But he is going to live up to this trust now, so when facing Xia Jingxing, he has no confidence.

   "Sit down and talk!"

  Xia Jingxing's expression was flat, and he pointed to the seat opposite to him.

  Yang Haoyong sat down and said nothing.

  "If you go now, you will lose a lot of options."

Xia Jingxing squeezed his resignation letter and said lightly: "I asked Luo Li, your options are only two ten thousandths. If you stay for another three and a half years, you will still have four opportunities to grant options. Add up to at least Eight out of ten thousand.

  If the future market value of Facebook reaches tens of billions or hundreds of billions of dollars, it will be eight million or eighty million dollars.

  No more consideration. The risk of starting a business is not small, and the possible benefits are not as good as those on Facebook. "

  Yang Haoyong saw that Xia Jingxing didn’t mean to challenge himself, and his expression eased. “I know that entrepreneurship is risky, and I believe that the company’s future valuation and market value can reach tens of billions and hundreds of billions of dollars.

  But I still want to try my own business!

  Dalun, I have always had the idea of ​​starting a business in my heart. I thought about it for several years. I was thinking about my last job, and now I have a prototype in my heart. "

Xia Jingxing sighed, "Well, if you insist on leaving, I won't force it."

  Yang Haoyong was a little surprised. He thought that Xia Jingxing would keep him a few more words, but he didn't expect it to be so refreshing.

  Xia Jingxing noticed the surprise on the other's face, and said with a smile: "I actually understand you very well. The more capable people are, the less commonplace they are.

  If I guess right, you should be planning to return to China to start a business, right? Which company's business model is copied? "

  Yang Haoyong was stunned. He felt that Xia Jingxing was too good and he could see through everything.

  Now that he was seen through, he simply said: “The mature Internet business model in the United States has been copied to China and has been successfully replicated. This is true for the three major portals, including Baidu, Ari, and Penguin.

  This is a very suitable path for sea turtles to start a business, and I am also going to take this path.

  In fact, this is not ashamed!

  Because these models cannot be directly copied to China, if they are just copied casually, they are doomed to fail.

  We have to make certain transformations and optimizations according to China's national conditions, Internet penetration, etc. "

  Xia Jingxing waved his hand, "I didn't say it was bad, knowing how to learn and adapt to changes, these are the basic qualities that entrepreneurs should possess."

  Yang Haoyong nodded and said, "Yes, I think so too."

  "Which website in the United States did you see? If it is convenient, you can share it."

  Yang Haoyong hesitated, after all, this thing cannot be revealed casually.

  Xia Jingxing smiled, "Do you think I might leave this stall in the United States and go back to China to start a business?"

  You can tell your business plan directly, if you can move me, I can be your angel investor. "

  Hearing Xia Jingxing's words, Yang Haoyong felt that he was really worried, and he used a villain to save the gentleman's belly, because it is impossible for Xia Jingxing to lose the watermelon and pick up sesame seeds.

  "Daren, have you heard of Craigslist?"

  Xia Jingxing smiled and said, "You are talking about the free classified advertising website Craig established in 1995?"

  Yang Haoyong nodded, "Yes, that's it, but they are not completely free now.

  New York, Los Angeles, Washington, Boston...people in these big cities have to pay for advertising.

  There are no pictures on this kind of website, only dense text, marked with various life information, it is a huge combination of online classified ads and BBS.

  Enterprises and individuals can post information such as job hunting, housing rental sales, second-hand product transactions, housekeeping services, and regional activity guides, and they can even find dates.

  There is no such website in China, but there is obviously such a demand.

  People usually advertise, that is, in the media, including TV, newspapers, and so on.

  Although the three major portals are involved in Internet advertising, they are all in contact with large companies. Small companies cannot afford to advertise on them, and they do not meet the needs of small companies.

  As for the classified advertising website I plan to do, the user can choose the city and the classification.

  In this way, for companies and individuals, they can spend the least money to find the ideal audience for advertising. "

  Xia Jingxing nodded. This is Ganji. That's right.

  In fact, Ganji.com is also an imported product, founded by Hai Turtle Yang Haoyong.

   Right now, Yang Haoyong insists on leaving Facebook, which has an infinitely bright future. It is obvious that he has seen the blank of such websites in China.

  It's done, Nasdaq will ring the bell, just around the corner, and it's still C position.

  On Facebook, if you ring the bell, Yang Haoyong can only stand in the corner.

  What's more, now that Facebook is ringing the bell, the character hasn’t been written yet.

  Xia Jingxing looked at Yang Haoyong and asked, "What is the name of the classified information advertising website you want to do?"

"Ganji!"

  Yang Haoyong blurted out directly.

  In Xia Jingxing’s view, this man has obviously been planning for a long time, and the name of the website has been figured out.

  Yang Haoyong continued: “The reason why I am called is that I hope that netizens can browse Ganji.com, just like a rural market, and they can see and buy the goods or services they want.”

  Xia Jingxing nodded, "Sounds pretty good!"

   Then he changed his words, "Have you ever thought that once you start this kind of website, a large number of people will follow suit immediately."

  Although you found it early, it is not necessarily the one who can laugh last. "

   "Yes!"

  Yang Haoyong did not refute this, but honestly admitted: “Whether it is in the United States or China, there will never be a shortage of commercial speculators and followers.

  Everyone competes together. In addition to comparing first and second movers, it also depends on many factors such as team, resources, money and so on. "

   "Needless to say, this kind of website is also a very down-to-earth website."

  Xia Jingxing raised his eyelids, looked at Yang Haoyong, and said with a smile: "You are a turtle, this is an advantage, but also a disadvantage.

  The advantage is that you can access the latest overseas Internet models and have overseas resources, such as contacting angel investors like me who like to invest everywhere.

  The disadvantage is that because you are a sea turtle and have lived overseas for a long time, you lack the background and resources in China, and you are even unfamiliar with many domestic situations. "

  Yang Haoyong smiled and said: "Dalun, you are joking, you are not a random investment. LinkedIn and Tesla are both very good startups.

  And the advantages and disadvantages you mentioned, I admit that they are very objective.

  For me, the domestic business environment and lack of domestic resources are the biggest shortcomings.

  But I have another advantage, you didn’t say it. "

  Xia Jingxing asked: "What advantage?"

   "I have been working on Facebook for a year and a half!"

  Looking at Yang Haoyong's serious look, Xia Jingxing couldn't help but laughed.

  "Dalun, I am definitely not trying to please you, but from the bottom of my heart.

  I am very grateful for this entrepreneurial experience. I have witnessed the expansion of Facebook from millions of users to tens of millions of users, and witnessed the emergence of YouTube.

  We also had a confrontation with many competitors, and the media and public opinions sometimes boasted and disparaged.

  In addition, I have also seen how the team forms cohesion and combat effectiveness.

  It can be said that this year and a half of work experience has greatly helped me to start my own business. "

  Xia Jingxing nodded, "I believe it now, what you said is definitely from the bottom of your heart."

  Yang Haoyong smiled.

  "Then you return to your country to start a business, do you have any start-up capital?"
