Chapter 339 The man behind the new boss

  The foreign girl trusts Xia Jingxing very much, and she trusts her without reservation.

  The next morning, as soon as she arrived at the company, she recruited all the executives and held a meeting together.

  At the meeting, she proposed two topics: "opening public homepages to more institutions and organizations" and "developing Twitter".

  The foreign girl stood on the stage, playing the PPT, repeating the content that Xia Jingxing told her yesterday, adding some own understandings, and repeating it.

  "Opening the public homepage to more organizations, institutions, and celebrities is to enrich the content of the platform and at the same time increase the social influence of the platform..."

  Xia Jingxing did not sit in the first place, but in the first place on the left of the conference table.

  This used to be the position of foreign girls, but now the seats of the two have been reversed.

  He quietly leaned on the chair, looking at the foreign girl wearing a white professional suit on the stage, listening to the latter carefully introducing two major products, and nodding from time to time.

  The foreign girl's understanding ability is still very good, and the things he tells are not very different from what he taught yesterday.

  "The public homepage is open to celebrities, celebrities, governments, various associations, etc., which is understandable.

  But what is this tweet? Can you still send messages using mobile phone text messages? "

  Evans shrugged, with a look of disapproval, "What is the difference between this and Facebook's site news and personal dynamics?"

  All the executives subconsciously looked at Xia Jingxing.

  Although both issues were raised by Christina today, all executives can feel that this is definitely from Darren's handwriting, and only he has so many whimsical ideas.

  Xia Jingxing noticed these strange eyes, and said nothing, as if the old monk had settled down.

  He wants to maintain the authority of the foreign girl, so naturally he can't go over and over.

  The foreign girl also saw some executives' reliance on Xia Jingxing, saying that there is no complaint is a lie.

  But if you want to prove that you are worthy of this position, it is useless to complain about others. In the end, you have to rely on your own performance.

  She faintly said: “There are enough functions on Facebook, and no more functions can be added. That will only make the interface more and more complicated, and the user experience is not good...

  The reason why Twitter chooses to incorporate the function of "SMS Tweet" is to lower the threshold.

  You always carry your mobile phone with you, not as cumbersome as a computer.

  The Twitter system will have a receiver. As long as the user sends a message to the number specified by Twitter, the Twitter system will distribute the message to the user’s followers. "

  Evans spread out, "Isn't this just a group SMS?"

  "It's different. In addition to receiving tweets on mobile phones, users can also use PC devices to receive tweets and reply to the tweets in the information input box on the web page."

  Yang Niu explained: “In the imagination, Twitter is an open source website. In the future, mailboxes, instant messaging tools, etc. will all be combined to make information dissemination easier, more convenient, and faster.”

  Not only Evans didn’t quite understand it, but several other executives also felt that it was a useless thing.

   "Why use Twitter to tweet? I use mobile phone text messages, even communication tools, emails are fine?"

   "Yes, I feel that this product is unlikely to be popular."

  "I think we should focus more on the growth of Facebook users."

  ……

  Several executives all said what they were saying, and no one was optimistic about Twitter.

  Xia Jingxing knew this would happen. Yesterday he spent a lot of time to convince the babes to convince her that this is a promising product.

When   Past Life Twitter was born, it was called "the dumbest idea ever" by analysts.

  Why do you say that? Just because it looks too tasteless and a bit redundant.

  Does not cause quantitative changes to cause qualitative changes. When there are tens of millions or hundreds of millions of users, this short information transmission method suddenly shows its power.

  The reason why Twitter incorporates the "SMS Tweet" function is that the trend of the mobile Internet has been predicted very early.

  After the development, almost no one on Twitter is using text messages, emails, instant messaging tools to send tweets, all using "mobile apps".

  The CEO of Twitter later had his account stolen, and hackers used his account to post a lot of racially discriminatory and inappropriate remarks.

  Twitter accused the telecom operator of something went wrong and was easily broken by hackers.

  Later, Twitter simply turned off the "SMS Tweet" function permanently to prevent hackers from hacking accounts again.

  But there is no smart phone at the moment, so you can only use these native methods.

  In fact, this is also the real secret of Twitter’s early start, which is a bit similar to the “mobile QQ” back then.

  In the era when there were no smart phones, Penguin used the GSM, SMS, and WAP systems of the mobile communication operating company to interconnect with its own QQ system, so that mobile phone users could directly communicate with QQ users through text messages.

  Xia Jingxing was silent, as if nothing was related to him.

  The foreign girl glanced at him, but chose to believe in Xia Jingxing and insisted on promoting the establishment of the Twitter project.

   Evans had no choice but to ask Xia Jingxing for help: "Dalun, you can say something too!

  Twitter’s technology is not difficult to implement, but the difficulty is to make a large number of users like it and use it for a long time. "

  Xia Jingxing said indifferently: “You only need to be responsible for the execution of development tasks, and you don’t need to worry about operations.”

  Evans stopped talking, and other executives were silent.

  In this way, the Twitter project was formally established when all the company’s executives were unanimously not optimistic.

   Facebook has been constantly recruiting troops after completing its B round of financing.

  Now there are more than 300 employees in the Optics Valley headquarters, and the recruitment has not stopped.

  As far as technical manpower is concerned, there is still plenty.

  Yang Niu transferred more than 20 people, set up a Twitter development team, and arranged these people on the 6th floor of the new lease, and started research and development in a low-key manner.

   Facebook used to have only three floors of office buildings. Now it has leased all the 1-6 floors of the entire building. In the next period of time, the Silicon Valley headquarters will have more than 500 employees.

  …………

  …………

   "Boss, it's out~ it's out~"

  The little dog knocked on the door and walked into the office, and started yelling as soon as he entered the house.

   "What's wrong? Panicked."

  Xia Jingxing was writing the development outline of Facebook on the computer. He looked up at the dog and asked.

  "Didn’t you ask me to inquire about News Corp’s acquisition of Juyou.com? Now that the news has been officially announced, News Corp. bought Juyou.com for 100 million US dollars."

  Xia Jingxing smiled and said, "It's only 100 million US dollars?"

  Previous News Corporation spent 580 million US dollars to acquire Juyou.com.

  In this life, because of the early appearance of Facebook, Juyou.com has been ranked second in the industry, and its value is definitely not comparable to the previous life.

  However, 100 million US dollars is not a small amount, and News Corp. may have paid a premium.

  The little dog squatted his mouth and said: "They are also worth the price at most. The number of users of Juyou.com has not exceeded 10 million, and because we launched the information flow function, their active users are still losing..."

  Xia Jingxing nodded first, and then asked: "What about Chris and the management? Have you stayed?"

   "Remaining, Murdoch offered Chris an annual salary of 10 million U.S. dollars. Others, like Sean Parker, Zuckerberg, etc., also each got a well-paid contract."

  Xia Jingxing has a little bit of meaning. Murdoch doesn't know how to play the Internet, so he wants to spend a lot of money to keep these talents.

  Paying so much, the picture is naturally not small.

  "Don't notify me first, please notify Christina first."

  Xia Jingxing did not give any guidance, and waved his hand to rush people.

  The little dog had complicated eyes, and he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

   sighed and turned around to go out.

  Xia Jingxing yelled the little dog and said, "Be happy, it's not that I will not meet again in the future.

  After I'm gone, you have to cooperate more with Christina's work. "

  The little dog nodded, "Boss, don't worry, Christina will be my boss from now on."

"what about me?"

  Xia Jingxing asked with a smile, as expected to be a person who has been familiar with the Three Kingdoms since childhood. This change is not vague at all.

  The little dog winked his eyes and said: "You are the man behind the new boss!"

  Xia Jingxing picked up the mouse and was about to hit someone.

  Hidden, the little dog ran out with a smile.
