That evening, Xue Jianfeng invited Sun Jian out for a meal alone.
The other three people in the dormitory teased Xue Jianfeng for not being interesting enough and only invited Sun Jian. But Li Mu knew very well that Xue Jianfeng should communicate with Sun Jian about Chen Jiao.
When Li Mu came back from swimming, he happened to see Xue Jianfeng helping Sun Jian come back from outside. When he asked, he found out that Sun Jian was a little drunk.
Li Mu asked him: "How much did you two drink during the meal?"
Xue Jianfeng spread his hands and said: "I wanted to drink some beer at first, but as soon as I talked about it, Brother Jian wanted to get some white beer. We both ordered a bottle of Erguotou and split it in half (half for each person)."
Li Mu was a little surprised. He glanced at the drunken Sun Jian and asked, "What's the big deal? Is it a big deal?"
"No, it's mainly because I have something else to do. Send Brother Jian back first and I'll talk to you alone."
"good."
The two of them supported Sun Jian together and sent him back to the dormitory to sleep. Xue Jianfeng asked the brothers in the dormitory to take good care of him. I’ve been serving drunkards since I was a kid, and I’m almost an expert.”
Xue Jianfeng nodded: "Thank you Zhengdao."
After saying that, they gave Li Mu a wink, and the two brothers went downstairs to the playground and found a corner to sit down.
"Boss is actually quite miserable." Xue Jianfeng lit two cigarettes, handed them to Li Mu, and took a puff.
Li Mu asked: "How to say?"
Xue Jianfeng said: "I had a girlfriend I had been dating for two years in high school. She only held hands and kissed. She was very innocent. They made an appointment to go to the National People's Congress together. However, more than a month before the college entrance examination, he discovered that the girl was actually I took a nap with him, and he failed the exam that year. The two of us stayed together and flew to Wuhan University, and he repeated his studies for a year before he got admitted to our school."
Li Mu asked: "So today he mainly brought up sad memories?"
"Yes." Xue Jianfeng nodded: "He doesn't have any feelings for Chen Jiao. He just felt that they were pretty good friends when we were dating. After we came back, we chatted through text messages. If Chen Jiao didn't agree, he didn't take it seriously. After I took the initiative to tell him today, he said that I could consider him, and he was very grateful. Then he remembered that he was a child and was in a bad mood, so he drank more."
Li Mu nodded and said, "We can't help him with his worries, but it's good that you two have talked it over."
Xue Jianfeng hummed, hesitated for a moment and said to Li Mu: "Li Mu, when Chen Jiao crawled into my arms that night, you saw it, right?"
Li Mu asked curiously: "Why do you ask this suddenly?"
Xue Jianfeng sighed: "Originally, I didn't plan to tell anyone, but I vaguely felt that you had seen it, so I confessed to you when I came back that morning. To tell the truth, I felt a little dirty at the time. Thinking about it now, I feel quite unjust."
Li Mu threw away his cigarette butt and stood up: "**********, you and I agree, there's nothing dirty about it, and it doesn't mean it's unjust. It's just that if you choose to hold it back and not say it, it will look a little shameful. Be particular about it.”
Xue Jianfeng nodded: "Yes, brothers must be careful when getting along with each other."
…
It was the first weekend after the class started. This weekend was connected with the National Day holiday, from the 29th to October 8th. It was a holiday just a week after the class started. Li Mu felt very happy, but Li Mu couldn't buy a ticket to go home. , these days are the peak travel period, so he discussed with Zhao Kang that he would stay in Yanjing for a few days after the holiday and buy a ticket for the night of the 2nd to go back.
On the evening of the 28th, Xue Jianfeng invited the girls from dormitory 606 and the female dormitory of Yan Da to have a meal together. At this meal, he and Chen Jiao officially announced that they were together. Sun Jian expressed his blessing on the spot and could not see any discomfort. Everyone felt relieved and celebrated.
Originally they said they would continue singing in the evening, but Zhao Ziqiu and another girl said they wanted to go back and read a book, so everyone dispersed after eating.
Li Yawei and Han Xiaoxiao were locals in Yanjing, so they took the bus directly home for the weekend after dinner. Xue Jianfeng bought four movie tickets and wanted to invite Chen Jiao, Hu Zhengdao and Wang Yanan to watch them together. Movie.
So the two pairs also left.
Zhao Ziqiu and the two remaining girls in the dormitory said goodbye to Li Mu and the others. In a blink of an eye, only three bachelors, Li Mu, Sun Jian and Liu Nian, were left on the scene.
On the way back, Sun Jian, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke: "Li Mu, Liu Nian, you said that the three of them have girlfriends, but we don't. Does it have something to do with the names? Xue Jianfeng, Hu Zhengdao, Li Yawei , their names all have three characters, but the three of us all have two characters."
Liu Nian smiled and said, "Brother Jian, Brother Mu doesn't want to talk, otherwise Zhao Ziqiu wouldn't have become his girlfriend long ago?"
Sun Jian scratched his head and said angrily: "That's right."
Immediately, Sun Jian said to Li Mu: "By the way, Li Mu, our school's Nansu Province Fellows Association is holding a party tomorrow at the typhoon shelter at the south gate of the school. They say the activity fund is thirty yuan per person. Are you interested?"
Li Mu smiled and said, "Are you telling the truth?"
Sun Jian immediately understood what Li Mu meant and said hurriedly: "Just go with me. My hometown will be a good place to pick up girls. Maybe I can reap my own happiness there."
Since Sun Jian said so, Li Mu had no objection: "Okay, I'll go."
"terrific!"
After looking at the time, Sun Jian said, "What are the three of us going to do? It's a bit boring to go back to the dormitory now, isn't it?"
Li Mu nodded: "Let's go to the Internet cafe and play for a while. I'll treat you."
Neither of them had any objections, so they went straight to the Internet cafe.
There are several Internet cafes near Renmin University, but the Internet cafes at this time were very average in terms of scale and environment. The three of them chose the largest Internet cafe, which was crowded with more than 30 machines. Although the space was narrow and the ventilation was not good, Okay, but this is the best environment in the neighborhood.
Nowadays, CS and Red Alert are very popular in Internet cafes. Not many people are playing in the Stone Age anymore. Sun Jian and Liu Nian are also fans of CS. When they arrive at the Internet cafe, they look for a room in the LAN, but Li Mu can see their strength at a glance. It's worrying, because they only play warehouses and don't touch pictures like deserts and suspension bridges at all.
Li Mu doesn't like the smoky environment of the Internet cafe. In Yanjing, where land is scarce, the owner of the Internet cafe is not as open as Er Bin from Haizhou. At least Er Bin has a private room on the second floor. The environment is much better than here. .
However, Li Mu also saw a first-line business opportunity. Now that Internet cafe certificates are easy to obtain, if a high-end Internet cafe is opened, there should be a huge market. The current Internet fee standard in Yanjing is not low. In such an environment, it costs three yuan an hour. From twelve o'clock in the evening to eight o'clock the next morning, it costs twenty yuan. Basically, it is certain that the Internet cafe machines are almost idle all day long.
A rough calculation shows that the profits of Internet cafes are astonishing. If a computer is turned on for 20 hours a day, 12 hours are billed by the hour, and 8 hours are included overnight. This is 56 yuan. How much does a computer cost? ? The number of machines that can be built in batches will not exceed 5,000 or 6,000, and the current configuration is already very good.
For a computer of 5,000 to 6,000 yuan, the gross profit can only be repaid in half a year at most. What is this if it is not huge profits
Li Mu suddenly thought that once he had a certain amount of cash flow, it would be good to open an Internet cafe to earn pocket money. At least he would have a place to have fun.
In the past few days, Li Mu has not paid much attention to Yiting.com and Tieba. Although the dormitory has access to the Internet, he has not been able to use the computer to do anything serious these days. The main reason is that there are many people in the dormitory, and they are trying hard to grab the computer. Didn't follow up.
At noon today, Kong Lingyu called and said that the traffic of Yiting.com has reached the 1.5 million mark, and Tieba is even more powerful. The independent traffic of Tieba is more than 2 million every day, which is simply a miracle.
Tieba has also opened celebrity Tieba in other fields. Some well-known celebrities in film, television, sports, variety shows, entertainment and other fields have their own Tieba. These celebrity Tieba have also attracted a large number of netizens to participate.
A few days ago, the homepage of Tieba also opened the service of building a self-built Tieba. Netizens can search for keywords by themselves. If there is no Tieba for this keyword, they can apply to establish the Tieba.
After several measures, Tieba started late, but after the singer Tieba was incubated with Yiting.com in the early stage, it began to soar into the sky. Now it is far beyond the comparison of Yiting.com.
Nowadays, Tieba has become very popular. Not only netizens like it, but people in the industry are also very concerned about it. Some celebrities are even smart enough to realize that they need to maintain their own Tieba and maintain their fan base, so they will even take the initiative to go to Tieba. Come on, the current development of Tieba is sitting on a rocket.
But rapid development also brings huge problems.
The biggest problem is funding.
The technical maintenance of Tieba requires a larger technical team and more powerful hardware support. Recruiting people and purchasing servers are all costs. Moreover, the content maintenance of Tieba also requires a large number of part-time workers and a small number of full-time personnel. This The cost of one piece is also very high.
The hundreds of thousands in the Yiting.com account had been used up a few days ago.
Li Mu urgently transferred 100,000 yuan from his savings to Yiting.com's account.
He doesn't want to trouble people with simple plans to provide money for him anymore, because this project is no longer a simple music and audio-visual website plan. More and more money will be invested in the future, and capital must be relied on to solve this problem.
Li Mu feels that it is time to obtain Series A financing. After receiving the money, Tieba can enter the money-burning promotion mode, and its development speed will be faster by then.
However, before taking the Series A round, there are two most important questions: Who should get it, and how much should it get.
Different investors will have different valuations for Tieba. At this point, you cannot just choose the one with the highest valuation. Instead, you must consider the level of resource replacement and comprehensively evaluate the strength of the investor. Just giving money is not enough. Those who contribute are naturally not as good as those who give money and contribute. However, how much money is given and how much effort is required also needs to be compared.
Moreover, different investors have different ambitions. Some investors think that as long as they can get on the train, it will be fine, so the requirements for shares are not too high, usually within 10%. Cars are not enough, they also need to have a certain say, so they will have higher requirements for shares, and these must also be measured.
Judging from Li Mu's inner expectations, he hopes to take Baidu's money.
Because Baidu search has huge traffic that can be directly transferred to Tieba. After all, Tieba is originally a product of Baidu. Under the Baidu platform, Baidu search is the best soil for its survival.
However, the financing offer given by Baidu’s Jack Zhou last time was really ridiculous!
Today is the first update. Within the first 24 hours after it was put on the shelves, we received nearly 100 monthly tickets. Now the last place on the new book monthly ticket list is around 680 votes. There are still more than ten days in this month. Everyone feels that there is still hope. A rush? Bu Ge feels that people have to dare to think in order to win, so please help brothers and sisters, we work together, you vote, I explode!
