Chapter 2524 The Factors of Success

Any intelligent person has his moments of confusion and negligence.

Take Milner in front of him as an example. In his previous life, he only saw the huge controversy caused by Uber and felt that it was too much trouble, so he did not invest in Uber. In the end, this became a very big regret for him.

Xiao Qi's "waterfall picture loading mode" developed rapidly in the next few years.

No one expected that such a simple model could attract so many users, making the website the third largest social networking site in the United States, with traffic higher than that of LinkedIn.

The name of this social networking site is Pinterest, and the Chinese name is Pinqu.

Two months before Xiao Qi’s reincarnation, Pinterest led a new round of financing with a valuation of $3.8 billion.

Before going public, a social network company with a valuation of 3.8 billion US dollars is rare in the United States. After listing, it will break through 10 billion US dollars, and there is no problem at all.

And its investment is not too much. Xiao Qi estimates that it can reach the listing level with 1 billion US dollars, but this Pinterest Xiao Qi thinks it is quite interesting, it does not involve sensitive aspects, and the profit model is very clear. It is the master who can make money.

Therefore, he does not intend to use it for listing and financing, and just keep it in his hands as an excellent asset.

As for the first crowdfunding website, Xiao Qi copied the most famous and pioneering crowdfunding website in his previous life - Kickstarter.

The model of a crowdfunding website is actually very simple. The main thing is to create a preconceived and fair environment. Only in this way, people will be more inclined to raise funds and invest in projects with you.

The Kickstarter in the previous life was established in April this year, but when they applied for a patent in this life, they were told that someone had already applied for a patent in 2006. change. To be a crowdfunding website.

Hearing that the group of entrepreneurs were extremely frustrated, they did not expect such a good idea. It turned out that others had already thought of it.

If they are asked to make changes, it is not a simple matter, because a change in one link will lead to changes in more links, and it takes a lot of time to sort out ideas.

But they don't know why others have applied for a patent in 2006, but there is no such website now?

Actually. It's not that Xiao Qi forgot to start a crowdfunding website, but because the timing was wrong.

What is the reason for the rapid development of crowdfunding websites?

Because of the financial crisis and the sovereign debt crisis, many angel investors, investment banking companies, etc., have tightened their money, and they are no longer like before. Just don't invest at all.

At this time the platform is wider. Crowdfunding sites with lower barriers to entry quickly gained opportunities.

Countless project entrepreneurs, countless individual investors and investment companies. They all found their place on the crowdfunding website, and then they jointly promoted the development of the entire crowdfunding website.

This is how Kickstarter has been inflated in value. It has become a billion-dollar valuation company.

Xiao Qi thinks the crowdfunding website is very interesting, because here you can realize the first step of angel investment, and let everyone help you find valuable companies.

In fact, the most famous crowd-funded companies in Kickstarter have all achieved success later in life.

Since 2014, Xiao Qi has no memory of reincarnation and rebirth, at most he has some previous judgments about the future, so it is impossible for him to invest in one successful one.

At this time, you can't blindly cast a net for investment, but you must choose.

Softbank Huaguo Ventures invested together with Sun Zhenyi. There are also funds invested in Milner, all of which are means of borrowing other people's ingenuity to obtain success rewards.

Kickstarter is another big platform. After the big waves wash away the sand, the remaining companies that have succeeded in the first step are worthy of Xiao Qi's investment.

Anyway, with Xiao Qi's wealth and status, there is no need to start investing in the smallest companies, and wait until these companies have achieved a certain degree of success before investing. Although the gains are relatively small, they will always make a lot of money. That's enough.

Always thinking about investing in a business that earns 100 times, that can only be a dream, and sooner or later, one day, the family property will be ruined due to random investment.

So the crowdfunding website Xiaoqi will also keep it directly, no matter whether it is worth 1 billion, 2 billion, or 5 billion US dollars in the future, it will not be released.

...

Milner is a restless man.

After discussing with Xiao Qi, he went directly to the airport.

In his words, after sleeping on the plane, he can just go back to Los Angeles, and maybe have dinner with the company's employees before taking a rest.

There is really nothing to say about Milner's work attitude. He just had a meal with Xiao Qi and chatted for a while. websites.

But from Milner's point of view, it didn't feel that special.

He used to be poor, so if he wants to live a prosperous life, he must work hard. What are these hard work? It's better than not having enough food and clothing, right?

Only a person like him who has been honed from suffering can have such an attitude and be worthy of the success of his past and present lives!

In contrast, Xiao Qi has many shortcomings. First of all, he has never experienced too many hardships, and his real strength is not too outstanding. If he has no memory of reincarnation, at most he will be a well-off life.

But if you think about it the other way around, Xiao Qi also has many advantages.

First of all, Xiao Qi will be very focused on doing one thing, and the requirements will be very harsh. He will not accommodate at all for the things he wants to do well, so he was rated as "the most demanding one" by Fairy Lab and Mingxiang Holdings North America Lab. demon".

It is also because he has this advantage that a group of engineers who have been tortured to death by him are able to produce high-quality products such as Dream Pad, Dream Stars, and Dream Snow, so that Huaguo Manufacturing is no longer an OEM and inferior products.

Then Xiao Qi was very willing to give.

Whether it is the people of Fairy Company or the partners who cooperate with him, Xiao Qi is willing to give benefits, so that the people of the company can concentrate on their work, so that everyone's cooperation can go smoothly.

Otherwise, how many people do you think would be able to accept Xiao Qi's extremely harsh request?

That is to say, to spend money, not only on the equipment, but also on the experience of the experiment, and also on the people. This made the staff work hard after being scolded and crying, which led to the Huaguo R&D department of Fairy Company, which applied for every year. More than 10,000 patents have been issued.

In the end, Xiao Qi was very kind.

Don't underestimate this good character that will be laughed at in today's society. In fact, it plays a very important role in many cases.

When people lack this kind of good character, they will yearn for this kind of good character, and then give respect from the heart to those who can possess it and show it seriously.

Niu Ruzheng and Yu Chengsheng treated Xiao Qi better and better, and even regarded him as their own son, not only because he was the "brain tank of the country", but also because Xiao Qi was in the past disasters and when others needed his help. They all stood up without hesitation.

It would be too heavy to describe Xiao Qi's contribution by destroying the family and relieving difficulties, but what Xiao Qi paid shocked everyone.

Since 2006, Xiao Qi has started the construction and support work of Mingxiang Primary School. Hundreds of Mingxiang Primary Schools and Mingxiang Middle Schools have become solid shelters for hundreds of thousands of people when the super earthquake comes. The players earned a rare respite.

There are also those high-quality roads, which not only facilitate the daily entry and exit of the people in the mountainous areas, but also play an important role in the event of a major earthquake. Whether it is running out or going in for rescue, roads are more convenient than dirt roads. Walk much!

During the snowstorm in 2008, Xiao Qi spent tens of billions of funds to forcefully break out passages to help the besieged people, get rid of many difficulties, see hope, and wait for hope.

In the following super earthquake, Xiao Qi’s material donations alone exceeded 30 billion RMB, not counting his other direct and indirect donations.

After the earthquake, Xiao Qi also actively participated in the reconstruction work. He not only donated money to build the road again, but also worked hard for the livelihood of the people. It was obviously a very hard investment and a long operation, but Xiao Qi never shouted A bitter, serious attitude has never changed.

In the words of Boss Bian of the mansion, in this respect, Xiao Qi has already taken over half of the government's responsibilities, and he has done a better job than the government's. He is indeed the most conscientious businessman.

If a person can do this, he shouldn't be a bad person.

Since he is a good boy, Niu Ruzheng and Yu Chengsheng admire him very much, they are willing to escort Xiao Qi's career, and they are willing to teach Xiao Qi a lot, so that he can become a more accomplished person.

If Xiao Qi is a penny-pinching iron cock, then although Niu Ruzheng and Yu Chengsheng will use Xiao Qi's power and give Xiao Qi the necessary care, it is just an exchange and will not come from the heart. I hope this child can go on in a safe, stable and smooth way for the rest of his life.

In a common saying, it is best described.

Good people have their own rewards! (to be continued ~^~)
