The two chatted casually, and they could talk about wherever they thought. From Zhou Shi's entrepreneurship, from now on, from domestic and foreign, what impact did different entrepreneurial environments have on him?

"When your domestic companies have not grown up yet, why do you think of investing in youtube?" Wu Xiaobo

"This matter sounds quite complicated, and may be related to my previous thinking pattern. For example, if I want to solve a certain problem, what I think of is not a simple method, but a more complex and difficult method. For promotion..." Zhou Shi told the method of using variety shows to promote Internet companies at a low cost. Then in order to maintain his relationship with Mango TV and to sell the copyright of variety shows overseas at a high price, he talked about investing in youtube.

“…”

"Mr. Zhou's thinking is really... I don't know what adjective to describe it. Perhaps it is this spirit of facing difficulties that pushes you forward." Wu Xiaobo

"The main reason is that I couldn't think of any good solution, so I had to use a stupid method. And no one believed me at that time. In order to prove myself, I had to constantly find ways to prove myself in a strange field." Zhou Shi

"Sometimes this method is the best way." Wu Xiaobo

"I think it's luck. Many things may just fit the needs of this era, so it's so easy to achieve the goal." Zhou Shi

"For example, web2.0, now it is recognized in the world that you are the first to propose the concept of web2.0. Almost at the same time as Zuckerberg, it has created a new generation of web2.0 social network, and has achieved their own glory in their own country." Wu Xiaobo

"I just proposed the concept, and many people have made contributions to turning this concept into reality." Zhou Shi

"For example, Wang Huainan and Lei Jun, what made you decide to hand over control of the company?" Wu Xiaobo

"In the process of development, you need to constantly understand yourself and talents. If my existence hinders the development of the company, why not give it to people with more ability?" Zhou Shi

"Aren't you afraid of losing control, and you will never have such a chance again?"

"I thought about it, but I don't worry. I have too many ideas to try. Many times I can't suppress my own ideas. So after I have money, I always buy and buy, so many people say that I am actually an acquisition maniac." Zhou Shi

"Is this also the reason why you sold youtube to Amazon and then left Amazon soon?" Wu Xiaobo

"It's almost the same, but the main reason may be that Bezos and I have similar personalities. Although we have many similarities, we have more different places. It's better to leave earlier for a long-term friendship. My thinking is still active, so I'll make new attempts earlier." Zhou Shi

"Why did you choose Amazon instead of Microsoft and Google?" Wu Xiaobo

"Those two companies are already legends. I want to create legends instead of joining legends. In addition, youtube and Amazon cloud computing have cooperated very early. The merger of both parties will help reduce youtube's hardware bandwidth and operating costs! And I have always believed that e-commerce and cloud computing are the mainstream directions in the future. Amazon's future will not be worse than Microsoft and Google, and it may even surpass them in the long run." Zhou Shi

"Amazon surpasses Microsoft and Google?" Wu Xiaobo

Amazon's market value is about $150 billion, Microsoft's current market value is about $3,500, and Google's market value is about $3,700. Well, you can still see hope.

"Is Yahoo confident that it will surpass Microsoft and Google?" Wu Xiaobo

"If I were an American, there was this possibility!" Zhou Shi

"Did the Chinese identity limit your development in the United States? Why didn't you become a US citizen?" Wu Xiaobo

"I already have a US green card, so there is no need to become an American citizen. I either have an American citizen or an American. I don't want to rely on others and become a second-class citizen in other countries. There is another very important issue, that is, the development of China's economy will inevitably greatly impact the economic order dominated by the United States. In the future, the conflicts between the two countries will further intensify. It is not ruled out that the possibility of a war breaks out. If I become an American citizen, I will swear allegiance. This is something I cannot accept!" Zhou Shi

"Do you think the United States and China will have a war?" Wu Xiaobo

"And this time node is not long. According to our speculation, it will be reflected in the next 5 to 10 years." Zhou Shi

"Peace and development in the world are the mainstream today. The possibility of war breaking out between two major powers is very small. Everyone has nuclear weapons!" Wu Xiaobo

"I have never said that war must be a military means, and finance and trade may become the focus of US attacks. Some domestic high-tech companies, especially communication equipment manufacturing companies such as ZTE and Huawei, are almost the inevitable choice of targets!" Zhou Shi

"Is there any evidence to prove your point of view?" Wu Xiaobo

"Why do I need to prove it?" Zhou Shi glanced at Wu Xiaobo and said.

"I still can't imagine the consequences of a war between China and the United States." Wu Xiaobo

"You can understand it in another way. The United States is equivalent to a country's monopoly enterprise, but there is no global anti-monopoly law! The rise of China will inevitably impact the United States' monopoly position. The European revival and Japan and South Korea, and the development experience of Southeast Asian countries have also proved that as long as someone wants to challenge the United States' status, they will inevitably be suppressed." Zhou Shi

"That seems to make sense!" Wu Xiaobo

"Peaceful development is not an inevitable result, but a product of constant struggle and mutual compromise. The contradictions between major powers may cause a fatal blow to companies that have many business dealings between China and the United States. Although the United States has many advantages, I am always a Chinese, and I pursue the interests of all mankind." Zhou Shi

Wu Xiaobo did not agree with Zhou Shi's opinion. After all, there was no sign at all. However, since this was from the mouth of a giant like Zhou Shi, he would think seriously.

"Then what do you think of the United States?" Wu Xiaobo

"This may be the best country in human history. It has many things worth learning from. But like a sharp sword, it may bring the best life to the world and create a paradise on earth; it may also cause the world to be in endless trouble and turn the world into a hell on earth." Zhou Shi

"..." Zhou Shi's views are always so unique, and Wu Xiaobo dared not listen to them.

"By the way, why do you want to buy sports clubs such as Liverpool football teams and Golden State Warriors? I heard you don't like these sports very much." Wu Xiaobo

"I don't like it because I can't achieve their professional level even if I work hard now, and what I like is the positive spirit shown in sports competitions. The reason I invest in them is that sports naturally carry a large amount of social currency in European and American societies. That is, I chat with strangers, and starting from sports competitions is often the most convenient way. Later I found out that I didn't need these..." Zhou Shi

"..." Wu Xiaobo gave up a little. He couldn't get any normal answers here in Zhou Shi.

Zhou Shi is actually very innocent. He has too much money, either paying taxes or investing in shopping. He buys clubs, planes, or yachts because he has too much money, so he wants to pay less taxes. In addition, when he encounters a good opportunity, good subject matter naturally has many incredible and coquettish operations.
