Chapter 1201 The Facebook Idea Was Born!

Lawrence had just collected all the evidence he could leave when James Keane called his father, Paul Keane.

3321 was originally the best springboard prepared by the Keene family for James Keane. Lawrence's sudden attack brought great shock and dissatisfaction to the entire Keene family.

Originally, the Keene family planned to use their own methods to remove Lawrence from Harvard after the 3321 US station went online, but now it seems that this plan is to be brought forward.

However, James Keane has another concern.

He felt that Lawrence had never dared to make trouble with himself before, but today he suddenly broke his face with himself. This must have a lot to do with Li Mu coming to Harvard. Although Lawrence himself did not mention a word about Li Mu, James Key En was certain that there must be a big reason for this from Li Mu.

So, James Keane proposed to his father: "We can't just let Lawrence go, the power of this project is ultimately in Li Mu's hands, can I participate in it and get a key position in it, it is still up to Li Mu Just nod."

Paul Keane also realized this, and immediately said: "Don't worry, I will let Lawrence get out first, and then I will negotiate with Li Mu. I have a way to get him to hand over the power of 3321 America to you."

For Paul Keane, he has a different kind of detachment and self-confidence in his heart. He always feels that with the influence of the Keene family in the United States, anyone should give some face. In his subconscious, Keane The aura of the family is extremely strong, so strong that the halo itself can be used as a kind of charity.

Paul Keene and other members of the Keene family have a very profound experience, that is, in most cases, the Keene family asks for help from others, and others will not only do their best to help, but also in the Keene family. He hummed in front of him, as if being able to help the Keen family was their greatest honor.

Moreover, the Keen family adheres to the nature of profiteers. In their eyes, they never have the concept of repaying favors. On the contrary, they regard favors as a resource. Everyone thinks that helping the Keen family will definitely get the Keen family in the future. Rich rewards in other areas, but only the Keene family knows in their hearts that they never return favors.

What Paul Keen thought was to use the influence of the Keen family to make a worthless deal with Li Mu. He felt that as long as he cast out the identity of the Keen family, and then implicitly indicated to Li Mu, the Keene family would be able to do so in the future. Provide assistance to him and his career in all aspects, then Li Mu will definitely agree. After Lawrence gets out, it should not be a problem to ask Li Mu to ask his son for a general manager of the 3321 US station.

James Keane is not as optimistic as his father, because he has always regarded Li Mu as his greatest enemy and competitor,

So he vaguely felt that Li Mu was extremely difficult to deal with, so he subconsciously asked, "Dad, how can you deal with Li Mu?"

Paul Keane sneered disdainfully and said, "It's just a damn Chinese boy. Although he is very famous and has made some progress in the United States, his foundation in the United States is still very unstable. Now he must be looking for it. A good opportunity lays a firmer foundation, so at times like this, as long as I show him a little political resource, he will immediately post it with a wagging tail."

James Keane couldn't believe it and said, "Dad, this Li Mu shouldn't be as easy to deal with as you think..."

Paul Keane laughed and said contemptuously, "I have always been very accurate in my judgments on people. Don't think that Li Mu is usually high-profile, calm, and seems to be impeccable. In fact, the more such a person is, the more insecure he feels in his heart. He is very strong in all aspects, but only without the US government relationship, as long as the conditions I offer can hit his core needs, he will definitely use it for me!"

...

In the in-house dining room of Harvard University, Li Mu met Mark Zuckerberg, who was still shy.

Mark Zuckerberg was taken into the restaurant and then led all the way to Li Mu, his excitement and excitement were beyond words.

Li Mu greeted him like an old friend and said, "Hey-Mark, Long-time-no-see, How's-it-going?"

"Hey Mark, long time no see, how are you doing?"

Mark Zuckerberg scratched his head shyly and said, "Thank you for your greetings. I have been doing well recently. I have been thinking about new product models, and now I have some clues."

As soon as Li Mu heard that he had an idea for a new product, he immediately asked him curiously, "Oh? What a good idea, let's hear it."

Mark Zuckerberg was even more embarrassed, and smiled slightly nervously: "This is just a simple idea, and the specific details are not sorted out clearly."

Li Mu laughed, waved his hand and said, "Don't be so nervous, let me know a few words about it. Don't forget that I promised to invest five million dollars for you."

Mark Zuckerberg nodded, organized the language, and explained: "Some time ago, I came across a book of "Fae-Books"..."

Just hearing this, Li Mu's heart skipped a beat!

Fae-Books? This name is almost the same as Facebook, except that one is plural and the other is singular.

And Facebook, Li Mu is too familiar, this word can be said to be thunderous to Li Mu!

This is a super behemoth product that is expected to have a market value of four to five hundred billion US dollars in the future!

Excited, Li Mu desperately suppressed his emotions and continued to listen to Mark Zuckerberg's introduction.

Mark Zuckerberg is seriously explaining to Li Mu at the moment: "I was inspired by Fae-Books, and I want to be a platform for college students to show themselves and interact with each other. The name is best to use Faebook."

Having said that, Mark Zuckerberg explained again: "But I don't have a very perfect idea yet, so I need some time to think about it slowly."

Hearing this, Li Mu, who was almost on the verge of screaming, deliberately pretended to be calm and asked Mark Zuckerberg: "This kind of project has a certain overlap with my YY, the first self-display page, in YY Space can be done, and interactive communication is the core function of YY, with the existence of YY, do you think your idea is easy to do?"

In fact, Li Mu has long thought about this issue.

Facebook was really awesome in the world in its previous life, but at that time, there were no competing products of the same type in the United States or even the entire Western world. Facebook is equivalent to creating a new model by itself and developing it step by step.

To put it bluntly, the primary product positioning of Faebook is an open personal space. It is a page product, and it is produced by more customized development on the basis of Blog products. The core positioning at the beginning is actually to rely on the creativity of electronic photo collections to promote online social networking in colleges and universities.

However, the current YY space already has all the functions included in the early and even mid-term of Facebook. The only embarrassing thing is that Li Mu knows very well that whether YY space or QQ space is comparable to that of Facebook, which covers the whole world. A hundred and eight thousand miles away.

Li Mu personally couldn't figure out the root cause of Facebook's success. In this era, only Mark Zuckerberg can understand this.

Faced with Li Mu's question, Mark Zuckerberg suddenly fell into contemplation.

Li Mu was right, his immature Facebook idea, in terms of product function, was completely killed by YY Space, and he didn't know how to answer Li Mu's question for a while.

Li Mu comforted him at this time: "Don't worry, eat first, and we will communicate slowly in private after dinner."

...

A question from Li Mu left Mark Zuckerberg in a trance for a noon.

He ate the whole meal absent-mindedly, thinking about his Facebook idea repeatedly in his mind, researching how this thing is different from YY Space, or how it can be played differently.

After dinner, Li Mu asked Xie Huairu to ask for a lounge, and sat facing Mark Zuckerberg, waiting for Mark Zuckerberg's answer.

Mark Zuckerberg kept his brows furrowed, looking like he was thinking very hard, Li Mu didn't interrupt, just sat opposite him and waited quietly.

After a long time. Mark Zuckerberg suddenly raised his head and said to Li Mu, "Mr. Li, I just thought about it carefully. The more popular blog itself is mainly uploading text, while Facebook itself is positioned to upload photos. YY space is mainly based on the fusion of the two;

In comparison, the content production of blogs is relatively difficult, because not everyone can calm down and write a blog. Among the 10,000 daily active blog users, those who can insist on writing a blog article every day may even be a hundred thousand. There are none, but photos are relatively easy to produce. Now that digital cameras have become more popular, the threshold for users to create picture content is much lower than that of blog articles. "

Hearing this, Li Mu nodded in agreement: "That's right, continue."

Mark Zuckerberg added: "Actually, whether it is displaying text or photos on the Internet, it is actually the user's display and show-off mentality at work. I wrote an article with great literary talent, I don't want to. Only I can see it, and I hope more people will see it, so I post it on my blog, hoping to get more recognition and praise;"

"I have a very good-looking personal photo, or I went to a place with beautiful scenery. I also hope to post the photo on the Internet so that more people can see it, and at the same time, it can be recognized and praised;"

Having said this, Mark Zuckerberg paused and said: "Although YY space can now upload photos and publish personal blogs, its positioning is too large, facing all YY users around the world, However, among YY's huge user base, there are very few people who have the ability to digitize photos. Such users either have their own digital cameras or can convert photos into electrons through other means. Therefore, in the face of YY's huge user base , the proportion of picture social networking is very low, so it is difficult to cultivate the atmosphere and behavior habits of picture social networking.”

Afterwards, Mark Zuckerberg changed his words and said: "My positioning for Facebook is actually a photo social platform for college students. College students themselves have a strong sense of superiority. If you make them the same as everyone else Playing YY Space, their enthusiasm must be difficult to mobilize, but if they are given a platform for college students to engage in photo social networking, their enthusiasm will definitely be greatly improved."

"Moreover, college students generally have the equipment and ability to digitize photos, so they are more suitable for such photo social platforms."

"In addition, I think that in this kind of personal homepage, you can also increase your emotional state, your hobbies in music, books, and film and television, and even include your own courses at school. Users can adjust this information according to their own needs. Display, this can not only highlight the college positioning of this platform, improve the favorability of college users to it, but also increase the desire to make friends among college students. The ultimate goal is to enable all college students. High viscosity, while making it the most important social platform in college life.”
