The next day, Wang Zixuan slept in again.
After getting up at around ten, he posted four Weibo updates: "I love the internet, I love freedom, I love sleeping in, I love showing off, and I love spending money. I'm not Wang Zixuan; I'm a Weibo addict."
"I love picking locks, I love climbing through windows, I love wearing masks, I love wearing gloves, and I love telling the elderly, 'I'm your son's colleague,' and telling kids, 'I'm your dad's friend.' Sometimes I even say, 'I'm a salesman.' I'm not a god, nor am I a cloud; I'm a thief. I'm always looking for my home. If you see me, call 110 immediately."
"I love making phone calls, I love sending messages, I love phishing online, I love pretending to be a QQ friend, I love pretending to be a police officer, a judge, a prosecutor, a tax official, and a bank employee. I also love saying things like, 'Your phone bill is overdue,' 'You've won a prize,' 'You've received a court summons,' and 'Your relative has been in a car accident.' Don't trust your family, don't trust your friends; they're not as trustworthy as I am. I'm a scammer. The police are always looking for me. If I contact you, call 110 immediately."
"Spring Festival is coming soon. I'm sending out two Weibo updates to remind everyone to be careful of thieves and scammers."
These Weibo updates quickly attracted a lot of comments from netizens.
"My husband is being naughty again."
"My husband is so talented."
"I was a bit confused at first, but when I saw 'I'm a thief,' I burst out laughing. My husband is so naughty."
"Thieves and scammers are so funny."
"The scammer is so vivid. Once my mom was scammed, and no one could stop her. It was only after calling 110 that we managed to stop her."
"Best public service announcement."
"My husband is the master of witty posts."
While commenting, many netizens also forwarded the first three Weibo updates.
Some netizens even imitated Wang Zixuan's style to create their own posts.
Soon, the "Weibo style" spread rapidly across the internet.
After having lunch and resting at home, Wang Zixuan finally set out with a group of people for the Huaxia Grand Hotel.
As the CEO of Wang Corporation, Wang Zixuan signed a shareholding agreement with Sina, officially acquiring 40% of Weibo's shares.
Major media outlets also reported on this news.
After being embarrassed by "The Voice of China," the experts became much more cautious.
Most of the comments on Wang Zixuan's investment were positive, believing that Weibo had the potential to become China's Twitter, even though it currently showed no signs of profitability.
Netizens were so engrossed in playing with the "Weibo style" that they paid little attention to this news.
After the signing ceremony, Wang Zixuan attended a cocktail party organized by Sina.
Recently, Wang Zixuan had achieved great success and rarely participated in social activities of the upper class, so many CEOs of internet companies came to this cocktail party, making it a peak event in the internet industry.
When Wang Zixuan saw someone, he suddenly paused.
Lei Jun.
The founder of Dami!
The man who created a myth of fraud from start to finish.
Turning no profit into significant profit, suspicious sales figures, unstable operating systems...
There were too many frauds in Dami's development, perhaps only the wealth myth was real.
If he had taken on this project, the wealth myth would have been realized even faster, and with substantial investment, he might have created a true Chinese Apple.
Thinking about this, Wang Zixuan felt a bit excited.
Even if it failed, at worst it would become an ordinary phone company, and losing money was impossible. His fan economy was much better positioned than Lei Jun's.
If it succeeded, it might really become a Chinese Apple!
The thought was quite thrilling!
At this moment, Wang Zixuan made another decision.
Tourism and technology, walking on two legs.
Lei Jun felt someone staring at him and, seeing it was Wang Zixuan, walked over with a glass of wine.
Wang Zixuan, seeing Lei Jun approach, snapped back to reality.
Lei Jun walked up to Wang Zixuan and greeted him first, "Hello, Mr. Wang."
Wang Zixuan smiled and nodded, "Hello, Mr. Lei."
Lei Jun smiled, a bit surprised, "I didn't expect Mr. Wang to know me."
"Mr. Lei is a famous angel investor. How could I not know you?"
Wang Zixuan, who had previously traded stocks and often read financial news, was not unfamiliar with Lei Jun. Lei Jun's investments in companies like Joyo, Xiaoyao, Shangpin, LeXun, UCWeb, Duoyou, Laka, Vancl, Letao, Kenu, Haodaifu, and the Great Wall were all very successful.
Lei Jun laughed, "You flatter me. Compared to Mr. Wang's moves in the capital market, we're just playing small ball, not worth mentioning."
Wang Zixuan and Lei Jun chatted casually for a few moments before someone else came over.
After the cocktail party, Wang Zixuan got into his car and immediately searched for Dami Technology on his phone. Finding no information about Dami, he immediately asked a headhunting company to investigate Lin Wenwu.
Most of the staff at the Predator Fund were recruited through headhunting companies, so Wang Zixuan was very familiar with the process.
Lin Wenwu was the CEO of Dami.
Wang Zixuan wanted to cut into Lei Jun's business, so he decided to poach his top talent.
Soon, the headhunting company sent over Lin Wenwu's information.
Lin Wenwu was currently working at Google, serving as the deputy director of the Google China Engineering Research Institute, engineering director, and global technology director, fully responsible for the team building and engineering research and development of Google's mobile search and services in China.
However, on January 13th of this year, Google announced that it would no longer censor search results on its platform and hoped to operate a search engine without filtering in China. If China did not allow it, Google might exit the Chinese market.
Wang Zixuan naturally knew that China would never allow it, and Google would soon leave the Chinese market.
After some thought, Wang Zixuan personally called Lin Wenwu.
Perhaps because the phone number of the "prodigal son" ended in six eights, Lin Wenwu did not hang up the unknown number.
"Hello."
As soon as the call connected, Wang Zixuan introduced himself, "Hello, I'm Wang Zixuan. I just attended a cocktail party hosted by Sina, and I had an idea, so I'm calling you. I hope I'm not disturbing you."
Lin Wenwu was taken aback when he heard Wang Zixuan's name, and when he learned that Wang Zixuan had just attended Sina's cocktail party, he knew he was talking to the most legendary genius in China. He quickly replied, "Not at all. What can I do for you, Mr. Wang?"
Wang Zixuan smiled, "I want to invest in a company and would like to invite you to be the CEO. When would be a convenient time for us to meet and discuss this?"
Lin Wenwu had already been thinking about starting his own business, and hearing Wang Zixuan's invitation, he was immediately interested.
Who didn't know that Wang Zixuan had a keen eye and a generous personality? Following Wang Zixuan would not only allow him to achieve something significant but also earn a substantial reward.
"Whenever it's convenient for you, Mr. Wang. Please set a time, and I'll definitely be there."
Hearing Lin Wenwu's response, Wang Zixuan knew he was mostly successful and smiled, "How about the day after tomorrow?"
"No problem."
Wang Zixuan then arranged a meeting place with Lin Wenwu.
