"That\'s the case. According to the information learned by our overseas contacts, three of the eight teams in Silicon Valley who previously worked on stranger projects have received investment, and the remaining five are either transforming or supporting themselves."

On the special plane from Yanjing to San Francisco, Huang Siyi, the head of Huizhong investment department, who came back from Hong Kong, briefly reported to Fang zhe about Momo\'s overseas launch.

Because of Huizhong\'s support, Momo\'s online promotion is quickly, accurately and ruthlessly promoted around the world, following the original playing method of Huizhong wechat, whether it is recommended by major app stores such as Appstore and 91 assistant, or various channel resources such as advertising exposure.

Although most ordinary people overseas do not understand China\'s Internet entrepreneurship competition, with the support of various resources, Momo, which has only been online for less than a week overseas, has won nearly 10 million registered users. For Momo\'s achievements, the global Internet industry, especially Silicon Valley, has shown enough vigilance.

The lesson of wechat has been praised as a disgrace to the Western Internet industry by many peers in Silicon Valley and the Internet industry in Europe and America. If wechat had not held a few legs when global users exceeded 100 million, I\'m afraid wechat would have been divided and run by various large Internet companies and a bunch of start-ups in Europe and America. Therefore, the Internet industry in Europe and America, In particular, Silicon Valley, known as the leader of the global Internet industry, does not allow similar things to happen again.

Although the idea of strangers\' social networking comes from the project called Tangyan and Momo in China, who says hundreds of millions of Americans and Europeans can\'t think of such an idea?

Therefore, this time, many people in silicon valley no longer worry about the so-called innovation and plagiarism debate, all in order to protect the U.S. and global markets regarded by Silicon Valley as the bag, or better, all in line with money.

Fang zhe has long expected these situations in Silicon Valley. Although Silicon Valley boasts that it is a leader in protecting innovation and the global Internet industry, all these have to be counted separately in the face of interests.

"President Fang, recently, there have been some voices overseas that Momo is a tool for our Chinese government to steal and collect the privacy of overseas users. In particular, Momo uses the user\'s geographic location information. The media and some politicians in many countries have said that Momo should be banned for the sake of protecting the privacy of citizens and national security!"

"Block? Momo has just launched overseas. How could it cause such a big reaction?" Fang zhe said with a sneer.

"You mean?" Huang Siyi thought.

Fang zhe nodded: "I\'m afraid some overseas Internet companies have already made a move. Although they disdain to quarrel with a small company like Momo on the surface, just saying a few words behind their back is enough to control the overseas situation! Moreover, I have an intuition that their goal is not only a Momo that few foreigners have heard of!"

"We?" Huang Siyi said two words and didn\'t go on.

Fang zhe looked at him and said slowly: "As you know, many people in the United States and Western countries have always been very hostile to China. Even if we try our best to weaken the Chinese element of wechat, and even most overseas users do not know that wechat is a Chinese software, there are still many negative voices against wechat overseas all the time. Our overseas public opinion monitoring department alone collects global negative opinions against Huizhong and wechat every day There are thousands of news.

More importantly, can those large overseas Internet companies tolerate us to eat this big cake? With the transformation of wechat from a social communication tool to a social platform since we started the platform strategy at the beginning of this year, the potential and development space of wechat have become more and more huge. The board of directors opened two days ago, and the equity representatives of Softbank of Japan and Carlyle of the United States said I hope we can carry out the next round of financing as soon as possible! "

"Financing?" Huang Siyi immediately understood the intentions of Softbank and Carlyle. Huizhong\'s current development is not poor. They want Huizhong to further finance. Obviously, they want to increase investment and further control Huizhong to win greater interests!

Huang Siyi didn\'t answer Fang Zhe\'s words. Although he wanted to ask Fang zhe about his plans and ideas, it was obvious that he couldn\'t worry about this kind of thing. However, Fang zhe didn\'t hide it from him. Huang Siyi was a veteran and capable cadre who started his own business. Inspired by Huizhong\'s equity in the past two years, he already belonged to the vested interests of Huizhong\'s senior management and was firmly tied to Fang Zhe In fact, Fang zhe trusted him very much, otherwise he would not be responsible for such an important department of Huizhong\'s foreign investment business.

"Hum, greed is human nature, but now we have 600 million users in WeChat, millions of media and businesses are using our official account numbers and subscription numbers. We are no longer a child. They don\'t want to divide more cakes with them."

The good development of wechat in the world has given Fang Zhe and Huizhong different confidence and confidence. Even if Huizhong still has a big gap with the multinational giant like Microsoft and Google, it is also a quasi multinational giant. With the accumulation of time, wechat\'s global roots will only be deeper and deeper, and its ability to cope with and resist external difficulties and attacks will be stronger and stronger.

"On the whole, our wechat development strategy in the past two years is still changing from tool to platform. Since more people outside want to share this cake, it\'s better for us to take the initiative to send it to them. At least we can maintain enough initiative. Therefore, we only need to succeed in the negotiation with eBay in the United States this time, not fail!"

When Fang zhe said this, he sent Huang Siyi away and rested alone in the cabin chair. The main purpose of Fang Zhe\'s trip to the United States is to talk about cooperation with eBay.

EBay is one of the giants in the overseas e-commerce industry. Like Taobao in China, it mainly does C2C and B2C business. Interestingly, in China, Taobao and Alibaba, which are very similar to eBay, far exceed JD, which is very similar to Amazon. In foreign countries, the two are just the opposite.

Of course, Fang zhe has no intention to intervene in the overseas e-commerce industry. Although his girlfriend and sister-in-law have started vertical e-commerce, he and Huizhong do not intend to do it himself, because in this field, even if Fang Zhe is a reborn, he laments that he can\'t do better than Ma and Alibaba.

The main goal of Fang Zhe\'s cooperation with eBay is actually PayPal, a payment tool under eBay.

PayPal, like Alipay, is a third party payment tool. It was founded by the realistic version of iron man Elon Musk and his friends at the end of last century.

In 2002, PayPal was bought by eBay for us $1.5 billion. Up to now, PayPal has more than 200 million payment users worldwide, with an annual transaction volume of more than US $200 billion. It is also the world\'s largest third-party online payment tool in non Chinese regions. The purpose of Huizhong\'s cooperation with PayPal is to connect PayPal to wechat payment in overseas regions!
