Rebirth Lord of Time and Space

Chapter 115 You Tube
Now youtube is still very simple, the interface of the beta version is like a fake website, and there are very few video content. Lin Fei pretended to watch a few short videos uploaded by users, thinking.

Compared with Facebook, which needs to wait for ten years for long-term investment, the value of YouTube will be reflected more rapidly. It can only sell 16 billion after its establishment, and the growth rate is quite amazing.

This world does not simply travel through, it should be said that the earth is developing faster than the previous life, so time is more valuable.

Lin Fei is short of an industry that can be realized in a short period of time. He has not counted on Facebook in the past few years. Even if he is behind the scenes to promote it, it will not meet the requirements in three to five years.

But YouTube is different. Its value is more directly reflected. If you can hold it, you can realize it properly when you are short of money, and it is also easier to manage.

Because in his previous life Lin Fei often watched videos over the wall, he was also familiar with various domestic video software, and he had a clear grasp of the advantages and disadvantages in his heart. He only needed to spend money on it, and development would not be a problem.

After having an idea, Lin Fei chatted with Steve: "Why can't we continue?"

Seeing that he was interested, Steve chatted: "With the growth of data traffic, there are many things we can't do with a small team alone. For example, we want to support various mobile phones and search categories on the site. The team is almost exhausted."

"Another important point is the issue of funds. This type of enterprise has high requirements for servers and bandwidth. I used to treat it as a hobby, but now the focus is on Facebook, and I have no time to take care of it."

"That's right." Lin Fei thought about it for a few seconds, and then looked at him: "If I'm interested in this piece, I can buy it from you and give you enough funds to develop it, how about it?"

A group of his friends were the first to react: "Congratulations, Steve!"

Zuckerberg also congratulated: "Based on His Royal Highness' previous understanding of the Internet, the website will definitely flourish in his hands."

Steve didn't agree, but said good and bad: "This kind of website is indeed very new at present, and it has a promising future, but if you have the idea of ​​making money from advertising, I'm afraid it won't be possible for a long time. "

"There is another important problem. Not only can it not be profitable in the short term, but it will also consume funds continuously. If you want to expand abroad, you also need to compile the website into different languages ​​and arrange the content according to your preferences."

"I know, it needs a powerful data center." Lin Fei summed up the other party's concerns in one sentence. In fact, it was sold to Google because the latter had the strength to operate it.

Does Lin Fei have the strength of a big company now?

No!But he has money, at least he has a lot of ways to get money,

If you need money urgently, it’s a big deal to walk the road of the Golden Triangle again, play a little bigger, and get tens of billions at a time.

In addition, unlike the history exhibition, he became a major shareholder of Facebook, and because of his forward vision and insight, the team respected and agreed with his opinions, and Facebook will definitely be a big data user in the future.

With these guarantees, Lin Fei is very willing to play big.

Taking a step back, even if you can't hold on to it for more than ten years, it will be a lot of income if you sell it halfway. He will not sell cabbage at a price like Steve Chen. consider.

But now he can only secretly say sorry to Steve, man!

Youtube's cabbage price must also be sold, and it will be lower than what he sold in his previous life.

For a newly established video website, Lin Fei's offer was to acquire 2% for US$9 million.

Unlike the social networking field that already had a large scale and he was not familiar with, he was sure to do a good job of the video website, so he bought it in one go while the other party was just getting started.

The remaining 1% is reserved for the founding team's shares. In order to prevent them from taking money to break up the partnership, Lin Fei also emphasized that he will invest an additional 200 million US dollars after the acquisition condition of 5000 million.

Adding up these conditions, a combination of 2 million acquisition of 9% was reached.

Like those young people, Steve is not very interested in the pursuit of ideals. He is more realistic. When he thinks that he can get 2 million in one go, not to mention food and clothing, he can also get 5000 million investment for his hard work. heartbeat.

The most important thing is that he still controls its destiny. After investing 5000 million yuan, he believes that relying on his own ability, it will be easy to double its value. In the end, he owns a small amount of shares, which is another kind of value-added guarantee.

Lin Fei looked at the other party who was thinking, and warmly invited: "How about my qualifications? Compared with working at Facebook, I think you are more suitable for YouTube."

This sentence made the Facebook team dissatisfied: "Hey! We are still listening!"

Of course they were joking. Historically, Steve had only been on Facebook for a short time, and he himself was aware of this. After a little thought, he decided to devote himself to his favorite field of video sharing.

"I will go back and discuss with my partners." Steve was already moved. "This is a good opportunity. With the assistance of sufficient funds, I have the courage to show my strength."

"Then wish us a happy cooperation first!"

Lin Fei shook hands with him with a smile. Of course, the smile is full of sincerity. Not to mention buying youtube at the price of cabbage, he also retained the founding team, which will ensure a faster start of the website.

Even if he doesn't care about anything now and lets the founding team play freely, after more than a year, it will definitely sell for a higher price than Google's 16.5 billion.

Let it operate for a few more years, and it will be worth tens of billions easily. This is the huge profit of foresight, and the joy of being a reborn person is perfectly interpreted at this moment.

……

Lin Fei felt that this trip to the United States was totally worth the fare.

Not only has he become the largest shareholder of a social giant, but he has also swallowed up the future video giant. The most optimistic calculation is that these two companies already have $2000 billion in assets in their hands.

After ten years of stable development, Lin Fei can proudly declare that the assets of the world's richest people are no more than that in front of him, and the sum of the top three is barely enough for him to see. Brother is the real treasure.

"We're here, Your Highness?" Nangong Jingyu's voice interrupted Lin Fei's fantasy.

"Notice to prepare for a meeting."

Lin Fei didn't show his complacency on his face, he was always cautious in this aspect, and he didn't like to talk about it and brag about it until the results were not sure.

What's more, it's just started now, and ten years is too long, because what will the future look like because of the butterfly effect I induced?No one can predict.

He can only rely on his own memory of the future to ensure the normal development of the industry.Now he's on his way to YouTube's offices with a whole upgrade plan in mind.
