Taking the opportunity to attend Liang Jun's engagement banquet, Liang Wenjiang went to Haizhou to find Ding Chunjian to try his luck, hoping to solicit some sponsorship for the Kunteng online website established by several of their Tsinghua classmates.

The profit of domestic portal websites is expected to be delayed to 2003 and 2004. Before, the most important business investment opportunity was to use the first network wave to list and cash out the websites in the stock markets of Hong Kong or the United States. According to this model, Zhang Kezhen intends to intervene in the Internet industry. He should cooperate with other investment institutions around 1998 to find a relatively mature comprehensive portal for investment, then package it for listing, cash it out and withdraw in 2001, rather than intervene in a station that can only be called the prototype and has a single and narrow function in 1996.

Due to Liang Wenjiang's relationship, Zhang Ke is willing to invest 1 million in the private name in advance. However, in Liang Wenjiang's view, since the establishment of a website is the interest of several of their Tsinghua classmates, he hopes to get the company's sponsorship, rather than causing any personal burden to Zhang Ke; He didn't know Zhang Ke's wealth at this time, and deliberately refused Zhang Ke's kindness.

Zhang Ke told him that it is OK to sponsor in the name of IDA electronics, but business is business. First of all, we should see the interests of IDA electronics in this sponsorship.

Although Liang Wenjiang is one of the main creators of Kunteng online, he, like Ding Chunjian, has expertise in technology and has little experience in the operation of the website. It is only because of his interest that he established such a website with others, but he doesn't think much about the future profit model of the website.

As for what benefits IDA electronics can get from this sponsorship, Liang Wenjiang still can't answer.

Zhang Ke asked Ding Huai to invite several student creators of Kunteng online, Liang Wenjiang's Tsinghua classmate, to the company in the name of the company. Even if there is no result in the website construction, such contact is also conducive to attracting these technical talents to work in Aida. After all, Haizhou is not a first-class big city, so it is necessary to attract top talents in this industry, In addition to a good salary, we should think carefully.

After the engagement banquet between Liang Jun and Sun Li, the rest of his brother-in-law's family went back first. Liang Wenjiang went back to school for the time being,

Zhang Ke now needs to focus on the HKCEE. It was not until June 18 that Liang Wenjiang and the student creators of Kunteng online arrived in Haizhou by train again. This is a city that he doesn't think about. The key is that there are his incredible cousins in this city.

He didn't know how to explain all this to others, so he simply explained vaguely that his little uncle's family had investment in IDA electronics and was very interested in new things such as the Internet. He didn't say much about others.

Haizhou only opened its train in 1992. Although it was not early to build the station, it was only a small-scale stop in planning. During construction, the local subsidies were also quite limited, and it was built in the desolate northern suburbs. To tell the truth, when Liang Wenjiang first came out of the station, he couldn't help being disappointed at the desolation outside the narrow station.

Now Ma Xiangdong and some of them feel very similar to Liang Wenjiang's first visit to Haizhou. Standing on the platform and looking at the farmland under the platform, they all doubt that investors here will be optimistic about the prospects of the Internet industry. After all, the Internet is very fashionable in metropolises such as Beijing and Shanghai. Ma Xiangdong joked: "Your little uncle is the legendary local rich man? I had some expectations for Aida electronics. I really doubt what an excellent enterprise can be produced in such a place..."

"It's desolate here, but the city is not too bad..." Liang Wenjiang said with a smile.

"Liang Wenjiang, Ma Xiangdong..."

Liang Wenjiang turned his head and saw Zhang Ke and Ding Chunjian standing at the exit not far away. Ding Chunjian waved them over. There were two people around them. When he was in Haizhou, he had no chance to know Fu Jun and Du Fei.

In order to make students pay attention to the HKCEE, Haizhou No. 1 middle school specially postponed the final exam to the beginning of next semester. Without the burden of the final exam, Du Fei spent all day with Zhang Ke these days.

Liang Wenjiang looked at Qingli's disappointment with Haizhou. Zhang Ke could see more or less. He smiled and waited for them to come and walk out of the platform. The outside of the platform was more desolate. It was four kilometers away from the center of the city. Except for the straight and spacious Beiguan Avenue, there were almost no buildings with urban characteristics. The scope of the center of Haizhou was small, and it had developed eastward and southward in the past two years , the development of Beiguan District in the North lags behind.

Zhang Ke stood on the steps and said with a smile, "in the countryside, did you just discuss that Aida Electronics was just made up by a few local rich people?"

Liang Wenjiang smiled and introduced Wu zhengjunfeng to Zhang Ke.

Among the main founders of Kunteng online, Ma Xiangdong and Liang Wenjiang are undergraduates, and the other three are graduate students. The initiator is Ma Xiangdong, who will graduate from Tsinghua University this year. He organized Liang Wenjiang and them to create Kunteng online in his junior year. Compared with Liang Wenjiang, Ma Xiangdong has excellent organizational ability, which Ding Chunjian also praised. He helped him in the beginning Their busyness could not resist the encouragement of three inch lotus in Ma Xiangdong's mouth.

Previously, Kunteng online was just a BBS website for college sports enthusiasts. In early March this year, Yahoo was officially listed on NASDAQ. On the first day, it created a legend on Wall Street and a fanatical transaction, making an average of six turnover per hour. On that day, Yahoo's market value soared to more than 800 million US dollars. Yahoo's success greatly inspired the domestic Internet Industry pioneers are also the most direct reason for the expansion and upgrading of Kunteng online.

In addition to software upgrading, hardware equipment also needs to be expanded and upgraded. The cost is not what they can earn from looking for workers elsewhere. Ma Xiangdong graduated immediately. For this matter, he just chose an electronics research institute in Beijing, and then put all his energy on Kunteng online.

Kunteng online more reflects Ma Xiangdong's personal vision for the future of the Internet. Liang Wenjiang and his colleagues were invited by Ma Xiangdong to participate in technology development.

Limited by energy and funds, their expansion and upgrading this time is only to establish an information classification list and customizable database for the previous BBS website. There is no specific plan in terms of operation. In Zhang Ke's opinion, Kunteng online can develop into a more professional sports website at most. At least in 1996, such a website has no value worth investing in, However, after contacting Ma Xiangdong, he knew that he had a relatively complete concept of the Internet industry at this time, but it was not possible for several Tsinghua students to build a complete and technologically advanced Chinese application platform in their spare time of two or three months.

Although Zhang Ke doesn't know those technical things, he has invaded the Internet for more than ten years, which makes him have a clear understanding of the industrial characteristics of the first and second generation Internet that people in this era don't have.

The transformation and use of Internet technology play a key role in the rebirth and development of websites. The successful model of the first generation Internet industry in China is dominated by technological innovation. For example, Sina started with technology platform, Sohu started with search technology, Tencent started with instant communication technology and Shanda started with online games. In the creation stage of these websites, The technical trace is quite heavy.

Technological innovation needless to say, in Ma Xiangdong's idea, Kunteng online should become a platform for new Internet media, and collect value-added service functions such as entertainment, interactive forum, e-mail and search. The importance of news information itself is an important feature of portal websites. Whether it is early financing or later profit, it only depends on huge click traffic and huge user group, and fully reflects the eye economy color of the first Internet wave.

Unlike Liang Wenjiang and Ding Chunjian, who only have technical expertise and can only run in libraries and laboratories all day, Ma Xiangdong has an outstanding understanding of website operation in this era.

Of course, Zhang Ke didn't see Ma Xiangdong among several people who later emerged from the Internet. In this era, opportunity is a very important thing. Having different talents may only mean a pretty good job. It still needs some opportunities to become a public figure attracting worldwide attention.

From the railway station to the R & D center of Aida electronics, after only one afternoon's conversation, Zhang Ke decided to invest in Kunteng online. He said to Ma Xiangdong: "I'm only interested in the network platform you envision. If you are interested in developing Kunteng online into the website you envision, I can invest..."

"Take Yahoo as the goal?" Ma Xiangdong asked suspiciously.

"At present, Yahoo is the goal..." Zhang Ke calmly sat there. He is a layman in technology. He can't tell them at this time that the portal is only the first step of the Internet industry. With the development of Internet technology, yahoo still has a lot of development space.

"But..." Ma Xiangdong hesitated. The communication time was so short. He doubted whether Zhang Ke was fully aware of the difficulty of making a comprehensive network platform. "To make such a network platform is not an ordinary project."

Zhang Ke said with a smile, "what's the matter? I don't have any expectations for Aida Electronics? I'm one of the main investors of Aida electronics at least."
