After listening to William's words, Wilson's forehead was sweating and he stammered,
"Are you planning to use our reputation as a lure to attract all ordinary people to step on you?"
"That's right, but I told you to only show what you are good at," William reminded angrily.
"I'm not asking you to strive to be the best in the world, I'm just showing the positive side of the descendants of nobles to the outside world.
If ordinary sports can’t compare, why can’t they compare with etiquette, horse riding, golf, cricket, and other aristocratic sports?”
"It's easy for you to say," Wilson covered his forehead and said with a lack of confidence, "Even if there are some of us who are powerful, can we still compare with our peers all over the world?
Once the competitive spirit of ordinary people is aroused, we will definitely be trampled to shame, or even beaten one-sidedly."
Looking at Wilson who had no fighting spirit, William said angrily, "Hell, I want to beat you up right now.
There are so many aristocratic children, isn't there any one who is good at something?
It’s not like we are asking you to compete with the world champion. Even if you are not good at other aspects, how can you not compete with equestrian?”
"It's really hard to say," Wilson was silent for a moment and said helplessly, "Most aristocratic movements have now become popular.
Many children from wealthy families even start training equestrian when they are five or six years old. We may not necessarily be able to win against them.
After all, compared to the number of nobles, the number of wealthy people is too large.
In addition, many nobles are not even rich, how can this compare?"
"I,,".
William was so angry that he almost cursed, but what Wilson said was also true.
After lowering his head and thinking for a moment, he could only settle for the next best thing and said, "Then find an excuse, some charity competition or academic discussion,
Downplay the atmosphere of the game and highlight the sports spirit that focuses on participation and hard work.
It makes people feel that the nobles are not just a group of people who just hang around and wait to die. There are also some of us who can work hard and study hard."
"Okay, okay, that's pretty much it. In fact, many of us are still keen on sports," Wilson said with a sigh of relief, "As long as it doesn't cause confrontation, there should be some people participating."
"Um?"
When Wilson said opposition, William couldn't help but be stunned.
I suddenly understood that it wasn't that Wilson didn't want to compete, or that he wasn't a good person, or that he didn't want to make money with him, but that he was afraid of being too high-profile and causing the resentment of the entire society.
After all, the situation of the nobles is indeed not good, but William just wants to stir up the topic on the new website,
Keep young people, the main force of the Internet, in the website, and he doesn't care much about the others.
"I'm warning you, Wilson, if there are bad people from the descendants of the aristocracy causing trouble on the website,
Or if you guys can't make a difference, our previous shareholding agreement will be invalidated."
William said with a straight face, "It's not that easy to make money after me.
In my estimation, the market value of this website will be at least 10 billion pounds in five years. If it does not reach 100 billion pounds in ten years,
There is no point in retaining the young people's social market by taking over all the federal countries in England and occupying half of the market share in Europe.
The survival situation of Internet companies in the future will be a winner-takes-all situation."
"One hundred billion pounds in ten years?"
When Wilson heard this, he stuttered in excitement.
"Then, then, that 5% is five billion pounds?"
"What do you think?" William said, "If England were not my base, and I myself was a hereditary noble,
Now that you can use it, do you think the money will be so easy to make?
So, I’m warning you, if you want to be worth a billion, take care of those aristocratic little guys who want to hitchhike and become billionaires.
You are not the only ones who are topical. If you cannot satisfy me, I will find celebrities.
Maybe the price paid is only tens of millions of dollars.
Moreover, if you make me unable to see the effect in the future, I cannot guarantee that the shares you hold will not be diluted before listing."
"Understood, I will carefully select the right people and never let the bad apples slip in."
Wilson felt that William's ability to make money was higher than the prestige that his grandfather had left in his mind over more than ten years.
After all, not everyone can start from scratch and reach tens of billions of dollars in just two years.
Even if there are people who have the same ability as William, they will never make money with them.
At the same time, if William was too young and could not chat with other adult nobles, he would not be interested in them, the descendants of young nobles.
Wilson, who was extremely excited by the bright future of money, hurriedly left the space center after chatting with William about some details.
One phone call summoned his housekeeper, lawyer and confidants.
Seriously deal with the matter of buying shares in ITV that William told you.
He knew very well that if the matter of buying a stake in the TV station failed, he would not have any share in the subsequent affairs of the website.
And William will rope in Wilson, on the one hand, it will reduce the chances of Abi and the others appearing in public, so as not to be threatened by others who will find their weaknesses.
On the other hand, it was to return a favor to King Philip.
During this period of time, although Philip did not publicly express his support, he did not want anything to happen to William, so he secretly helped to deal with many people and forces who had designs on Lina.
From the perspective of maintaining the aristocratic system, William absolutely believed that Philip would not want to see himself, who was already somewhat of a spokesman for the English aristocracy, die young.
Since they are allies and have expressed goodwill with practical actions, they should also give appropriate feedback.
After hanging up the communication with the space center, William opened the portal and threw the alien corpse to Planet X17 for Sunday to deal with.
He opened the door and returned to the basement of Oxford Castle, checked the authorized Sunday, secretly checked Blue Star's existing website code, and combined the requirements he gave, and created the website.
A few hours later, a website named Facebook was successfully registered, and as soon as it was launched, it rented nearly half of the vacant servers in major countries around the world.
William thought there would be one billion users online, but judging from the results of Sunday’s survey,
Although there are billions of people watching live TV in this day and age, the number of Internet users is only about 500 million.
Facebook does not need to increase the number of online users to one billion for the time being.
After a night of testing, I have learned to use cloud technology, Sunday Hui reported,
"Sir, the rented servers and our free server group can already support 100 million people online at the same time.
If necessary, we can rent nearly a thousand large-scale servers in more than a dozen major countries to the limit, allowing 200 million people to be online at the same time.
However, the chat and comment functions of the website can only provide simple text replies.
More features require continuous testing, server and source code upgrades.
If we are too impatient, the network technology of the entire society will not be able to keep up with our needs."
William, who tried it out for one night, knew very well that Facebook's online social networking was actually very simple, even rudimentary.
However, the functions of other social networking sites are also in the stage of simple text communication.
Not to mention 100 million online users at the same time, even 1 million would be considered an industry leader.
