Intermediary transaction SEO diagnosis Taobao guest Cloud host technology Hall

25th, the theme of "Reflection on 2006 lessons 2007" Sing 2007 interactive tour and the laggards Forum six anniversary of the meeting held in Beijing, the conference attracted more than 800 webmaster and related companies to participate, is unprecedented.


, click on Technology president Zhidong, Qihoo President Zhou, stragglers webmaster Dong Qin Peak and Sequoia Capital Director Ji Yue and other internet pioneers made a wonderful speech. Among them, is called the angel Investor's Zhou 祎 especially eye-catching, its to individual stationmaster how attracts the venture capital the point solution to win bursts of applause.

One, concentrate on doing things, less want to finance

Zhou: Others said Fry into shareholders, I was invested into employees. Today came to no speech, we posted a good post, I even did not squeeze the sofa, just pour some water.

Many webmasters are concerned about how to do financing, but I want to pour some cold water on everyone. I personally feel that the more I want to deal with VC, the more I want to find Angel investment company, the more may not be desired. Our company, it is impossible for each to become Sina, become Sohu, here is the man, the outcome in the days. The company's success must have luck and opportunity, but at the outset do not utilitarian, can not be listed, in order to get rich.

I saw the company in the process of investing, a strong feeling is that they have found a real problem, they can help others solve problems through their technology and products, create value, they are interested in this matter, such a company may not necessarily do very big, but do very meaningful, Such companies are likely to be truly rooted in netizens. For example, I want to discount, the beginning if it is to solve the female netizens want to buy fashionable things, and cheap, do meet this point, there is value. As for the future of this value, it is decisive. And some companies, despite a lot of money, are not as good as they are when they do something hot.

I was the first to support the Thunderbolt, also did not think of his today. At that time is to want you to download software and entertainment things, need a download tool, often a simple idea can change the world. So, we want to really succeed, we must ask ourselves, do this thing is not really interested, is not very love this thing, at the same time this thing is not really create value? The last thing to do is to do much, and God says it depends on luck. So, you don't want to change your money from the start, if you do something worthwhile, you'll find it.

Second, venture capital is more than money

Recently I saw some forums on the internet to discuss venture capital, many people have misunderstandings about venture capital, many people complain that they can not find money, there are some media do not know the details of the situation, to interview the so-called after the company did not make a person, tell VC how black heart, how the capital kicked out.

I am personally disgusted with this view. There is no need to take money, but if you find VC and angel investors, you have to understand that you take more than money. This industry is not short of money, but why also talk about venture capital, mainly venture capital can bring money after the intangible resources. Specifically, it's a game rule. In the company, how to establish a good profit distribution mechanism, how to do the company's original shareholders, founder, Senior advisor and core consultants, we need to have a common interest goal, and finally the company to succeed. Any company, no matter how lofty ideals, if not a long time to think, or do not small, or is dirty uneven, the last company into several.

Foreign VC is not Lei Feng, they come to China is to make money. Money is not a fault, the most important thing is how legitimate and reasonable, and make a lot of money. For VC, they create good rules of the game, help your company and capital docking, this is the most important. I often say that VC is actually a disadvantaged group, such as IDG, red shirts and so on, once they have invested, they can only wait for your company or die or live. Before investing VC is big ye, once put money into, entrepreneur is big ye, we can only resign to fate. I hope that our entrepreneurs will be able to get the money, but before I invested and many entrepreneurial team is not how to grasp the money, but the VC game rules, only people know the rules, the game can be done. Moreover, your company must have a good plan, before you make money to VC, at least you can believe.

If you can't get the money, don't complain about VC. Just like you chasing girls, how can you make sure you meet a girl to marry you? Zhidong in Silicon Valley to invest in, see more than 30, only one or two interested, you do not get some success stories, said the last toilet there are 30 million dollars. If you don't get the money, you're not ready, but you should be beaten up, they'll tell you what doesn't work, and finally make your ideas real.

I hope to help you and become a bridge between you and VC. But before that, I hope that we can change the position of thinking, to understand the VC, do not demonize it.

Three, more learn to ask to stand on the shoulders of predecessors

Many individual stationmaster, including small company, face the biggest challenge not from zero to 100, but from 100 to one billion. There are several community platforms in China, but why discuz! To stand out? Including when I took over the Thunderbolt, do not say and flashget than, even VERYCD can not compare, but it is how from shareware, finally become today even Google is willing to vote for a billion company?

The development of personal website often starts not to ask to do very big, but very interesting, also can support oneself. In this way, even if the end of the small, you can get a lot of experience, they are very happy. Of course, there will be a few lucky and the best, found that you inadvertently go in one direction. For example, Dai four years ago to do community software, originally BBS very simple, but today's community hot, he was this tide pushed up.

You bet the right direction, the rest is when the road choice is right, how do you occasion the company to do, this is a reflection of a problem. I suggest, do your best products, such as adding some traffic, whether it is the means of quasi-rogue or what, these do not need me to teach you, you must be green out of the LAN-sheng blue. However, I hope that everyone has an open mind and can be a team player. In the industry can find more like Zhidong, Ji Yue and so on these experienced people as consultants.

The technology is talented, the product has the genius, but the marketing is not talented, the management also has no genius. No matter what mode, the last to bigger, must be a business, capital and management clearance. Of course, if you do not rely on the help and support of the past, you may also be successful, it is either luck, or on their own constantly beat, but always better to stand on the shoulders of predecessors to succeed faster. I love the discount net just now said not to raise money, this idea is wrong. The investment chamber such as the red shirt brings a lot of cooperation resources and business model, how to turn the business model from small product to big industry, this is very big challenge. Therefore, we are good at using the invisible Force, in the team must also take out the company's shares, to the competent people. You have to use your own ideas, a lot of people to pull in, your ideas do not grow, so that your company will succeed.

Four, quietly into the village, shooting the Don't

Question: My blog is very hot, but I do not see the future, VC will like which point, so that he can pay?

Zhou: Today, if anyone says that I know how blogging makes money, there's no chance of you today. Because the community represents the future, this is full of unknowable development, so just give us a chance. China has 500 million netizens, hundreds of millions of bloggers, but it will be 35 years before the force is discovered. That year Fang Comrade Fancy blog, but he discussed the business value of the blog too early, the result caused the attention of Sohu and Sina, now the biggest website is to become Sina blog, Sohu Blog. Therefore, we must be tolerant of loneliness, quietly into the village, shooting the not. Today you do not see the future is normal, if you see it is not normal.
