Global monopoly of technology

Luo Sheng couldn't help but froze for a while, his prediction was wrong, it seems that Xiao Zha is mostly "deleted" by this world.

It turned out to be the social network MySpace created by Chris. Think about it, the original World Xiaozha only officially founded Facebook next year.

After all, the world has changed, but Luo Sheng has full confidence no matter what, even if Facebook or MySpace, even if they all come out, he is not afraid. The advantages of Bluestar Technology have begun to take shape, plus I have the advantage of understanding the direction of the future era, and I have full information to defeat it.

Putting away his thoughts, Luo Sheng looked at George Charles and said: "George, you will be the president of Bluestar Technology in the Americas from now on. You will return to North America tomorrow. I will give you US$20 million to establish the Americas Division. , The address is set in Menlo Park, California Bay Area. There will be no branch in the European area for the time being. You will temporarily take care of the European business."

Luo Sheng paused for a while and then went on to say: "Before the end of this year, BlueSpace must have 10 million users in North America, and 15 million users worldwide except for the Greater China market. What I want is the dominance of the regional market, and I must pay enough attention to MySpace as a potential opponent."

After speaking, Luo Sheng stared at him motionlessly.

"Yes, BOSS!"

George Charles, who is in his thirties, doesn’t mind him being ordered by a boss who is more than ten years younger. He has not been in Bluestar Technology for a long time, and he has not been in contact with Luo Sheng for a long time. However, several contacts include During the interview and appraisal, he felt that this Chinese boss was unusual, and even gave him the same feeling as an experienced entrepreneur.

Luo Sheng nodded in satisfaction, no one opposed his decision, he also showed a vigorous and resolute side.

I saw the whole person leaning back on the chair, glanced at the professional executive hired from Silicon Valley by the entrusted headhunting company, and said: "Complete the goal, 20% salary increase plus option stocks, but I have not reached the goal, I can only request another Clever."

Originally, they were professional managers hired at a high price, and they came with money. If the development is not good, these professional managers will at most pat their buttocks and leave. For George Charles, Luo Sheng will not be like domestic people. Talk to him with affection and reason.

It's useless. Foreigners don't eat this set very much. Simply put, you can use money to do things, and if you do it, you can share more surplus value.

It's straightforward, which is actually not bad.

The attending financial steward Irene also silently made a memo. The 600 million funds just raised, Luo Sheng has such a mouth, Xiao Ai thought about the real-time exchange rate in his heart, the ratio of 8.277, this 20 million US dollars is equivalent to approximately RMB The budget scale is around 164 million.

George Charles said immediately: "BOSS, I hope to sign an agreement in the form of a business gambling."

Xu Yong, Feng Yi and others at the scene wanted to vomit when they heard this. The foreigner hadn’t done it yet, so they bargained on the spot. It’s too...For the sake of colleagues, everyone didn’t say anything and they all looked at it. Luo Sheng, who was sitting in the chief, was taken.

"No problem!!" Luo Sheng looked at George with a smile with one hand, and readily agreed to him, and immediately let Qin Weimu deal with it, and an agreement was settled on the spot.

After half an hour, George confirmed that there was no problem to sign the agreement, and he immediately lifted his spirits.

Luo Sheng commissioned a headhunting company to recruit a Silicon Valley executive for the purpose of overseas markets, mainly for business expansion in the North American market.

After signing the agreement, George Charles left the meeting in advance and prepared to fly back to North America. Before leaving the meeting room, Luo Sheng also explained to him that the international version of BlueSpace website has now expanded to a larger scale in North America. Universities and colleges, such as Berkeley, Harvard University, Purdue University.

The next international version of BlueSpace’s overseas expansion strategy is to target most of the smaller universities and colleges in North America, in addition to Europe, to expand to 21 universities in the UK, ITESM in Mexico, and the University of Puerto Rico. , And the University of the Virgin Islands, including the goal of next year to launch the BlueSpace website for universities in Australia and New Zealand.

Luo Sheng hopes that by next year, a total of more than 2,000 college and high school students overseas will be able to use the BlueSpace social product, and the number of users will exceed 50 million.

As soon as George Charles left, Luo Sheng looked at Feng Yi and others who were present at the meeting and laughed: "When dealing with Westerners, we have to follow Western thinking. Our goal is to get things done. As for the question of way, Yes, the goal is achieved."

Everyone couldn't help but smiled. They certainly didn't dare to make such a request to Luo Sheng, and would not do so. After all, the difference in culture and customs between the East and the West is quite huge.

But the biggest advantage Easterners have over Westerners is that Easterners can also play well in the West, because they can quickly accept Westerners’ gameplay, but many Westerners will encounter unacceptable situations in the East. Because it is difficult for them to accept the Eastern Mind's gameplay, and even arrogantly refuse.

As a result, many European and American companies burst into confidence before entering the Greater China market, and finally failed miserably.

The meeting entered the next topic.

"After the A round of financing, the company will inevitably usher in greater development. Then there will be a shortage of human resources. How many employees does the company have now?" Luo Sheng looked at the company's human resources director after speaking.

Zhang Bowen said: "The company currently has 288 full-time employees, and the HR department is still expanding."

Luo Sheng nodded. The meeting has lasted for more than 40 minutes since it was held, and it has basically confirmed Bluestar's strategic policy and specific expansion and operation ideas in the last quarter of this year.

Luo Sheng said: "The domestic and foreign markets of Bluespace website are advancing according to the original plan. At the same time, I decided to set up a brand-new project to enter the domestic search engine market."

Everyone is curious, to be a search engine?

Luo Sheng continued: "No need to think about it on a global scale. Google search has already occupied the dominant position in the global market. However, although the domestic search engine market has the largest market share in whiteness, the pattern is still uncertain. There are also Yahoo search, Google search, etc. In the end, who can stand out from the encirclement, in fact, everyone has a chance."

Everyone has no objections. Xu Yong, Feng Yi and others who followed him to start a business have blind worship to Luo Sheng, and the professional executives hired in will not object, and there is no objection to objections. Luo Sheng is the only one in the company. people.

In the long run, this is not a good thing for the company's development, but it is also very far in the long run. Luo Sheng is not yet full at the age of 19.

Luo Sheng is arbitrary in making important decisions, but other places are still very willing to discuss together, such as irrelevant naming issues. In the end, everyone discussed and unanimously decided that the name of the search engine would be Yunge.

The search engine project was confirmed and handed over to Feng Yi. Luo Sheng occasionally participates in the development sequence. He is undoubtedly the number one developer with the strongest technology in the entire company, followed by Xu Yong.

However, Xu Yong is the chief technology officer, so Feng Yi is the best for the development of search engine projects. Luo Sheng is optimistic about him, but one code is one code. Feng Yi does not have the ability to lead an important project alone, so Look for a headhunting company to dig people, and Luo Sheng has already found this person.

Obviously, Luo Sheng intends to take Feng Yi as the company's core staff for key training. As the company's CEO, he needs more experience to steer the ship of Bluestar Technology.

After all, no matter how good he is, he is also a person. If he can bring out a group of capable personnel who can be alone in the future, this is the result Luo Sheng wants most, because it is related to the company's future expansion.

The Internet is not Luo Sheng's main energy. Bluestar Technology will eventually be listed on the market. Not surprisingly, it will go public in the United States.

In his heart, a few months ago, he had already begun brewing another technology company focusing on technology research and development and high-end manufacturing. This company is also extremely important to the future of Bluestar Technology. He has not disclosed this idea to anyone. .

If Bluestar Technology is the branches and leaves of a huge tree, then the company that Luo Sheng has brewed in his heart is the trunk and root of the huge tree.
