The Pope of Basketball Community

Yang Rui and Thomas flew to Los Angeles and met Thomas' good friends at Columbia University, Ilf Rosenberg and Hannah McFarlin.

Both of them found jobs in Los Angeles after graduation, and both were small white-collar workers. During the meal, Thomas showed them Yang Rui's plan, and the two immediately decided to resign and join the "Facebook" company to be established.

A top student in the economics department of Columbia University, he can naturally see the potential of the IT industry, and its rising trend is unstoppable.

Half of the 10 most lucrative jobs in the world will come from the IT industry in the future. In the future, people's lives will be inseparable from the Internet.

Creativity is very important in the IT industry, and some companies rely on a good idea to succeed. Now, Yang Rui has given more than one good idea.

Entrepreneurship also requires people who can do things. A strong leader can have the tenacity to overcome one obstacle after another. In the minds of friends, Thomas Bentley is obviously such a person. He is an orphan, no matter how poor he was when he was young, he can overcome negative emotional influence and keep moving forward.

Ilf and Hannah are good at planning marketing strategies, and this kind of person is also necessary for the company to grow and develop.

The two of them had a meal with Yang Rui, and their impression of him completely changed, and there was no trace of Jerry back then, it was a completely different person.

They were surprised to find that Jerry, who used to be obsessive, is now covering Thomas. The idea is his idea, and he also contributed the initial capital to start the company.

After making an appointment with a friend, Thomas and Yang Rui went to register the new company non-stop.

Silicon Valley is located in the northern part of California and the southern part of the San Francisco Bay Area. It is another name for the Santa Clara Valley in California, where high-tech businesses gather. It was the place where silicon-based semiconductor chips were first researched and produced, hence the name.

Here is the kingdom of today's electronics industry and computer industry. It is the pioneer of high-tech innovation and development. The venture capital in this region accounts for one-third of the total venture capital in the United States. The number of computer companies in Silicon Valley has grown to more than 1,000. Home.

It is very simple to open a company here. Find an address, think of three names (two spares), and register with the Santa Clara County government. Finally, you have to go to the state government to register and fill out the form to complete the whole process.

The name of the company uses "Facebook". Yang Rui explained: "I want everyone to log in to the little yellow man's account and see the little yellow man's face when they turn on the computer in the future. As for the book, no matter where it is In this era, besides food, clothing, housing and transportation, the most important thing is books, and people will never be able to do without.”

In fact, he chose this name just because he was lazy. In the previous life, the Facebook company was too good, so they plagiarized it directly, so as not to rack their brains to think about the name. As for what Zuckerberg will become in the future, he doesn't care.

The company is located on the third floor of a small office building. For the time being, the company has few people and a small scale, so it doesn't need a big space.

It is a must in Silicon Valley, convenient to operate, next to the famous talent base Stanford University.

Stanford University has laid a solid foundation for the formation and rise of Silicon Valley, and has trained many high-tech product leaders and entrepreneurial talents, including the founders of Hewlett-Packard, Yahoo, Nike, Logitech, Cisco, and other companies.

After interviews, the company finally formed a team of seven people, all of whom were young and aggressive.

Talent is the ultimate driving force behind great ideas. If there are a group of people who lack passion and wit in the entrepreneurial team, then they may become the seeds of failure.

Thomas knew that he couldn't make it bigger in one go, so he made a plan to focus on developing chat software first, and then compete with similar products for users, and then promote the implementation of larger plans after the user bonding is high, step by step.

When he talked about the original idea, several programmers said that it could be easily done.

The programming of communication software is actually very simple, and the operating system is the same. The difficulty is to come up with ideas, ways to make money, and a complete system.

Yang Rui has done the most difficult work, and the rest is for professionals to realize the idea.

The company opened smoothly, Thomas is the legal person of the company, and the major shareholder filled in "Blessed People Company Investment". Yang Rui's name is not used, he doesn't want to be on the financial news, he is afraid of being said to be not doing his job properly in the basketball world, and he still wants to reach the top in the NBA.

The company purchased a computer and a desk, and immediately developed a minion chat software as the first project. Now the company doesn't need to raise investment, and chat software can't burn much money.

The two will live in Toronto in the future. Ilf is responsible for the daily operation of the company, and Hannah is responsible for assistance. Both are professional managers.

Yang Rui and Ilf are very relieved. This is a typical white nerd, very thin and wearing glasses. Seeing him, Yang Rui first thought of Spider-Man starring Tobey Maguire, before being bitten by a spider. This kind of honest person can't do bad things.

After finishing the company affairs in two weeks, Yang Rui returned to New York alone, and the reality show was officially on the agenda. Thomas stayed in Silicon Valley and split into two groups.

The company is new, and if the manager is indifferent to operations, it will affect morale. With programmers being paid $2,000 a month, Thomas didn't want to see anyone slacking off.

With no movies or TV drama roles to shoot, Melanie attaches great importance to this reality show, hoping to increase Scarlett's exposure and popularity. She doesn't think reality shows will affect her daughter's image. Americans like food, and girls with a good appetite are also cute.

After a period of discussion and planning, the crew decided to visit the 19 eastern states and Washington, D.C., and the host tasted the local specialties of each state, combined with tourism, to bring the audience a taste of the food culture.

They don't go to high-end restaurants, and simple and cheap food can attract more audiences, because Michelin restaurants are not affordable for ordinary people.

Yang Rui happily signed the contract to be the guest host of the first season and brought money into the group. This program will be aired on NBC Radio Food Channel. As long as the effect is good, there will be a second and third season in the future...

NBC is one of the three major commercial radio and television companies in the United States. It is headquartered in New York. It was established in 1926. It is the oldest and most powerful commercial radio and television company in the United States. It produces a large number of news, sports entertainment programs and TV dramas every year. The most popular TV series "Friends" is produced by this radio station.

The program was finally named "A Bite of the Tongue", and because Yang Rui provided the overall structure of the program, he became a "co-planner" and enjoyed part of the copyright. As long as the filming continues, he can also participate in dividends in the future.

Yang Rui never thought of getting so many benefits, and now his interests are tied to the Johnson family.

If Scarlett's grandfather Einar hadn't come forward, Yang Rui would not have been adopted because of his creativity. He is only a program creator in name, and the key is to rely on the influence of the Johnson family.

He is very much looking forward to the start of the reality show, and soon, he can be called the number one foodie in the basketball world.

PS: Today is also the third watch, Chapter 2 at 11 o'clock. The main character is not a robot, he can't do nothing but basketball, and he can't jump directly from June to February 1999. I don't know what readers like journals, but I personally don't. Reality shows are related to important plots later, so there must be one, and I will explain it here.
