At first, he chatted online. After chatting for a while, he got bored and began to read something he thought was "interesting". Because of his good English, he has almost no obstacles in browsing English web pages, which broadens his horizons. Slowly, he learned that people can build communities through the Internet, buy and sell goods online, contact schools through the Internet, and even realize their entrepreneurial dreams. ...
At this time, Lan, who is extremely imaginative, suddenly felt almost dull. He smiled and said that he seemed to face a brand-new world, and the world under the mouse was far more attractive than the world of reinforced concrete. The "72-hour survival on the Internet", which can be called "the earliest e-commerce game in China", is led by a website and is collecting applicants online. When he saw the news, his first reaction was to sign up, so he quickly filled in his own information and the mouse was sent at a click. At this moment, he felt very lost: this is how I filled in the information, and I will wait here for the "ruling" like all the contestants. This feeling is not very good, so I will take the initiative.
The next day, he sat in the office of that website in Beijing. The other party only left 10 minutes for the child, but after just five minutes of talking, he gushed about convenience and initiative: they found that the young man's knowledge in front of him was really out of proportion to his age. His questions hit the nail on the head, which is exactly where the website finds it difficult. "Any good suggestions?" The tone of the other party has become much more humble. "I think, now make network survival, is actually a kind of commercial speculation, can't bring qualitative changes to people's lives, so our work should focus on propaganda, specific to some practical problems, such as contestants don't have a phone, how to do? We can use VoIP, as long as we provide a microphone. In addition, you can provide network fax ... "
Lan Yu Ning talked about this in Kan Kan. People on the website listen carefully and take notes. Later, they simply forgot. They asked Lan to plan the content of "72 Hours of Network Survival" in Beijing. Lan Yu Ning readily agreed, and that night she sent an elaborate idea by email. The website did not choose to let him participate in the finals, nor did it contact the child again. However, Lan found that some key links involved in the "Beijing 72-hour network survival experiment" adopted his creativity.
"Be silly? There is nothing to gain from tossing a meal. " His friends said that about him. LanNingYu smiled and said nothing. This experience gave him an initial sense of accomplishment and a small lesson. In the middle of winter, the north wind roared in Beijing, and Lan ran wildly on her bicycle in the North Third Ring Road. The cold can't restrain his enthusiasm. He knew it was all his choice-
He is really tired of eating books every day. The students in the class are so busy that they don't even have time to go to the toilet to review their exams. In the classroom, everyone is playing hard in their seats, like passers-by. He thinks this kind of life is very funny. The young life is suppressed in the shadow of the senior high school entrance examination, and there is no happiness at all.
He didn't want to live like this, and all kinds of social activities didn't give up because of the pressure of entering a higher school. Parents said that he didn't know how many times, and gave an ultimatum-you can't get into college, just wait and see!
In order to make his parents less angry and get into a good university, he studied crazily, his grades went up slowly, but his smile almost disappeared. One of his good friends knows his heart best and gave him an idea. "If you can't stand this kind of life, you can take an examination of special students, can't you?"
Do you have a musical background? "yes! Lan Yuning woke up from a dream. When he came home at night, he looked at his piano and wiped the dust off it. When I was a child, the scene of learning keyboard music in Baotou Children's Palace came to my mind like a movie, and the pride of winning the prize in the autonomous region also came to my mind. Let me start my relationship with music again. He immediately expressed this wish to his parents, but he expressed it strategically. He said that he had delayed his study because he had done nothing. The only remedy now is the exam. I hope you can support my bright future. For this child who is full of tricks, his parents have no choice but to let him go.
He met Zhang Lijuan, a vocal music teacher, through friends. Teacher Zhang studied in Bulgaria, and his teaching was particularly good. Thanks to her good teaching methods, Lan soon got used to it. During that time, he went to school every day, rode to school, and then rode from school to his teacher's house to study.
His efforts were not in vain. Under the training of Zhang Lijuan, he passed the vocal examination and entered the Computer Department of Beihang University as a special student.
There is also a small turning point. It turned out that he was admitted to the automation department of the school. Lan was dissatisfied and took the initiative to find the director of the computer department and asked to be transferred to another department. The director asked him why he came to the computer department. He said, I want to develop in business and culture, but I think computers are too important. Only with a deeper understanding of technology can I help my other development.
The director looked at the brave child and nodded in agreement. "Why hasn't your boss come yet?" This is the first sentence that investors on the other side of the ocean said after seeing Lan.
"Boss? What boss? " LanYuNing asked.
"This is Lan, who provided us with a business plan," said the investor with respect in his eyes.
"I'm LUC· You Lan looking for. I wrote the business plan, and I can tell it all. " Lan said.
"Really?" Investors with a dull face immediately became excited.
Lan is certainly excited, too. He speaks freely with investors in fluent English. Investors are full of interest in him, a freshman. "Tell us how you thought of coming to us," the investor made a very modest and serious appearance. Lan said that China people are very particular about the word "destiny". We are predestined friends, so we meet. Then, he talked about his efforts before fighting for venture capital-in the summer vacation after the college entrance examination, Lan often looked at Beihang campus not far from home through the window. Going to college soon, you should have more initiative. I can't study and become a bookworm. But what should I do?
He surfs the internet almost every day. Suddenly, a report about venture capital jumped into his eyes. This is a very boring report. Lan Yuning can't stand a lot of data and technical terms, but he can think and dare to think: venture capital is very interesting and uses other people's money to realize his dreams. Since others can find it, can I also find it?
An idea flashed, and he began to "work hard here" with the mentality of trying. He really wants to set up a website, preferably related to music. After determining his own ideas and profit model, he began to write his own business plan based on the introduction of online venture capital. He found a successful sample on the Internet and wanted to learn other people's ideas, even all the details. In order to figure out the 30-page plan, he did 15 days! Even looking up information and calling, I finally learned it bit by bit and made a business plan of "painting a tiger according to a cat".
He found more than 300 overseas venture capital companies online and sent letters one by one according to the email address provided online. A week later, four or five companies came back with news, but all of them just expressed their initial intentions. A few days later, a Dutch venture capital company called and traveled across the ocean to find him for a long time, and had a sincere talk with him for half an hour. Later, after several discussions, some substantive issues were identified, and it was promised that if the cooperation was successful, about $65,438+0,000 would be injected in stages to promote this cause.
Lan was so excited that she told her parents about the situation. However, I didn't expect to be strongly opposed by my parents. They were too worried-a child, who finally got into college, should study hard and make a difference in the future, but now he wants to do business. Isn't that crazy? His parents gave him an extremely strict education. Lan has never seen her parents so angry. In order not to make them too sad, she had to put it down for a while. It happened that there was a music festival in Inner Mongolia, so he went with Tu Tu, the keyboard player of Tengger Singer Band, to distract himself. There, he met Qin Si Grille, and Lan Yu Ning sincerely told her what had happened to her. Ge Zile said that in the United States, children reach the age of 18 and have to decide their own future. This sentence gave Lan Xin strength. Yes, I am an adult!
Shortly after his return, Dutch investors called to say that the matter fell through because China was too procrastinating and insincere to follow the schedule. Lan burst into tears. Then, continue to look for investment.
This time, his business plan is more complete, and he has cast a net and distributed more than 200 copies. Later, it attracted the interest of an American venture capital company. After several telephone discussions, investors decided to visit China.
"Great!" After listening to his story, American investors laughed. They think that "2 1 century is the century of China" is true. A 18 college student has such knowledge, which is really beyond their imagination.
The investor said he 18 didn't even think about doing it, but you did it, which means you will be better than us when you are 40 years old.
Subsequent negotiations went smoothly, and a few months later, the "Together Music Network" was formally established. 18 years old, Lan became the youngest CEO in China. After the rapid expansion of the internet bubble, it quickly fell into the cold winter. Some big websites have closed down. Including the website that Lan went to hold "72 hours of network survival" that year. However, although his music website didn't make any money, it still stood firm in the cold wind.
One day he was watching TV at home, and there was an advertisement for a treadmill on TV. He watched, his thoughts racing like a runaway wild horse. Treadmill is a conveyor belt that turns the static ground into relative ground movement, and plays a role in fitness anytime and anywhere. So, can people's displacement be minimized when swimming? If we can make water move relative to the ground, can we solve this problem? He thought and wrote it down on a piece of paper. A lot has been written in this paper. This is his random book. He used to record some strange ideas that came to his mind at any time ... A few months later, American investors came to Lan and said that the golden age of networking in China had passed, and we could no longer make meaningless investments. We should give us better plans and projects, otherwise we may withdraw our capital. LanNingYu said, well, you wait another week.
A week later, he brought a new business plan about developing an automatic swimming device. Investors took the business plan and went back to study it for some time, saying that we could invest in this project. He didn't know that in order to make this project feasible, Lan invited experts from the Department of Fluid Engineering and Automation in Tsinghua University to demonstrate.
With new investment, we will immediately enter the research and development stage. Half a year has passed and he and his team are promoting their products. This kind of automatic swimming device, which costs about 8,000 yuan each, has attracted the attention of some institutions, restaurants and gyms. A company that produces bathtubs found Lan and wanted to buy out the production right of this swimming device patent, and the price was not low. But the whole company doesn't agree: this is our child and we can't just give it to others!
"We also have a very good invention, that is, the automobile braking system. If you use this device, you can greatly solve the braking accident caused by inertia ... "
He didn't tell me everything he did, because he said it wouldn't take a while to finish. For example, he is the lead singer and keyboard player of a band called "Excellent"; For example, he has been invited by Beijing TV Station for many times to host the Olympic bid English program; For example, he is considering cooperating with an electronic education institution to develop English teaching software; For example, his book about his growing up will also be published. ...
When chatting with him, there are calls for him from time to time. It's always 7788. I'm tired of listening to it, but he is still full of enthusiasm for everything. "I like to fantasize about hearing the sound of flowers, which is especially wonderful. I don't ask every flower to bloom in my own garden ... "He said.
On February 9, 200 1, 19, Lan said goodbye to his last day 19, and he was very sad that day. He fiddled with the goblet and accidentally spilled red wine all over the table. He wiped it with a napkin and said, "I'm 20 years old, I'm 20 years old ..."
