The development of the Burn After Reading app was not smooth in the early days. Fastagram was like two mountains standing in front of it, but it was still much better than the Burn After Reading App in the main world.
The self-destructing version of the main world was launched in July 2011, and until the end of summer, there were only a pitiful 127 users.
The World's Burning After Reading APP was launched later. The extra time was mainly for optimization. One month after it was launched, the number of users exceeded 20,000. Compared with the 100,000 registered users of Instagram's AppStore in one week, this number is not
Inconspicuous.
Li Jie was not anxious at all about this situation. On the contrary, it was Spiegel who was the first to lose his composure. He was very ambitious at the beginning. After Li Jie's deception, he felt that he would become the second Zach.
Berg.
However, the cruel reality poured cold water on him and made him feel cold. The start-up capital of half a million US dollars seemed a bit too much for a fledgling company, except for the fixed server and traffic costs.
, and small batch promotion expenses, there is really no place to spend the remaining money.
Spiegel couldn't help but complain to Li Jie a few times, and at the same time he felt sorry for the current situation because he felt that he had betrayed Li Jie's trust in him.
"Li, the current situation of snapchat is very bad. How about you recover some of your investment?"
"I'm really not a qualified person in charge. A good start has made me what I am now. I'm sorry, I betrayed your trust!"
Li Jie smiled slightly, indicating that he didn't mind, and comforted him.
"Spiegel, don't worry. It's too early to mourn now. Look at the group of people who have come out of Silicon Valley. Who has not experienced a dark time? The situation in front of us is very good. I am very satisfied. After all,
Everything is going in the right direction, isn't it?"
"By the way, let me tell you a recent news. Someone from the Ministry of Education is proposing to keep middle school students away from Facebook. They plan to disable Facebook on the IPADs issued by schools. If this policy is officially implemented, then this will be a great opportunity for us.
!”
Spiegel perked up after hearing this, grabbed Li Jie's arm excitedly, and asked urgently.
"Really? Really? Li, is this news true? Where did you hear it?"
Li Jie smiled mysteriously, patted his shoulder, and said earnestly: "Don't worry, I heard this from a friend. He is very well-informed in this regard. I don't know the specific time yet, but it will be soon.
Don't be anxious, everything needs to be patiently waited."
Spiegel still knew something about the partner in front of him, a mysterious second-generation rich man from China. Li Jie did not tell him his specific identity. He said some words vaguely, and Spiegel let Spiegel know the rest.
Geer figured it out on his own.
Sometimes imagination is the scariest thing. The few words Li Jie revealed from time to time later came true one by one. Spiegel had long regarded his words as a treasure and unconditionally trusted this partner with a somewhat mysterious background.
Later, things developed as Li Jie said. It didn't take long for the media to start discussing the bill. It would not be too far away from the official implementation. The remaining funds were enough to support them until then. Spiegel temporarily gave up.
The worries in my heart.
After appeasing the tool man Spiegel, a piece of news from China broke the harmonious relationship between the Su family brothers and sisters.
Su Mingcheng is getting married!
It has been two years since Su Mingcheng got engaged. The main reason why he delayed getting married until now was because of Su Mingcheng's fiancée Zhu Li. Zhu Li had been assigned to work for two years due to a job transfer and did not return to Suzhou until recently.
city.
In the concept of the young couple, marriage is a lifetime event, and a wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event. Neither Su Mingcheng nor Zhu Li wanted to hastily handle it.
Although the two got engaged early, the wedding room was decorated, the certificates were obtained, and they were officially a legal couple, the wedding has not been held. Last month, Julie got her wish and was transferred back to the local office.
The couple planned to hold a make-up wedding.
Su's mother, Zhao Meilan, had been waiting day and night for this day. Her eldest son was far away in the United States on the other side of the ocean. He rarely returned to China on weekdays, and he never showed any intention of returning.
She was even more at odds with her younger daughter. Mother Su knew clearly that only her second son, Su Mingcheng, who stayed with her, would be her support for the rest of her life. Her whole heart was focused on her second son.
Su Mingcheng's marriage is undoubtedly the top priority of the Su family. His daughter-in-law Zhu Li's family background is better than that of the old Su family. Zhao Meilan is such a face-conscious person, and of course she doesn't want her relatives to look down on the old Su family.
At the first moment of the wedding, Su's mother, Zhao Meilan, thought of her eldest son who went to the United States.
Su Mingzhe is the face of their old Su family. He graduated from Tsinghua University and studied abroad at Stanford. Now he works in the United States with an annual salary of four to five million. Everyone in the neighborhood praises her. After many times, only the eldest son of the Su family can give her enough money.
Facade.
So, Zhao Meilan made a phone call to the United States and told Su Mingzhe to return to China to attend her brother's wedding.
Su Mingzhe didn't know the fact that Su Mingyu had broken up with his family, so he casually asked if he should call Mingyu and they go back together. It wasn't that he wanted Su Mingyu to go back to show off, but because he thought they were a family after all.
Although Mingcheng and Mingyu usually don't get along well, you, the younger sister of Su Mingcheng, have to go back no matter what happens when Su Mingcheng gets married.
Zhao Meilan was strong-tempered and kind-hearted. She didn't want her eldest son to know about these troublesome things, so she hesitated for a long time without explaining clearly, and finally let Su Mingzhe figure it out on his own.
Because of this incident, a fierce conflict broke out between Su Mingyu and Su Mingzhe.
That night, when Li Jie and Su Mingyu were having dinner, Su Mingzhe called and said happily.
"Mingyue, your second brother is getting married next month. The wedding has been postponed for so long and it is finally going to be held. Then you can go back with me."
Su Mingyu was bullied by Su Mingcheng since she was a child. When Su Mingcheng got older, instead of getting better, it got worse. In Su Mingyu's heart, who is the most annoying person in the Su family, the first one is not the cold-faced and mean mother, but the overbearing and domineering one.
The second brother, Su Mingyu felt unhappy every time she saw Su Mingcheng's face.
Besides, she has now broken up with her family, and she will never go to Su Mingcheng's wedding.
"Brother, I won't go back!"
Su Mingzhe advised earnestly: "Mingyu, I know you usually don't have a good relationship with your second brother, but it wouldn't be appropriate for you not to go on this big day, right?"
"Brother, it's not that I don't want to go back, but I really can't leave here. It's not like you don't know the courses in the business school. There are so many courses assigned by the instructor. Recently, I just have a paper to write and collect materials.
Sorting out the data makes my head hurt.”
"Take me to apologize to their family, that's all for now. I'm still busy here, so I'll hang up now!"
Su Mingzhe wanted to persuade her again, but Su Mingyu on the other end of the phone had already hung up. Su Mingzhe put down the phone and sighed, and said angrily to Wu Fei beside him.
