Chapter 15: 6 Degree Division Theory

Chapter 15 The Six Degrees of Separation Theory

…

“Wonderful business model, genius idea!”

Tim George couldn’t help but marvel after reading it.

“Recruiting solutions, marketing solutions and business users. Among them, recruiting solutions and marketing solutions are for enterprises, and business users are used for individuals. For enterprise users, our recruiting solutions will be based on the level of talent they need. We charge an intermediary fee ranging from 100 to 9999 US dollars, and we recommend 20 people for each position. If they are not satisfied, they need to pay another fee. The marketing solution is mainly the advertisements that companies put on their respective homepages, which are based on the click-through rate. Charge, $1 for 10 clicks.”

“Finally, there are commercial users, that is, individual users. For individual users, we mainly pay annual fees and monthly fees. The monthly fee implementation standard is 19 US dollars, and the annual fee implementation standard is 199 US dollars. If you choose continuous monthly subscription, you can enjoy monthly fees. $9 discount. For those users who don’t pay, they can only follow their teachers, classmates, friends, colleagues, etc., but can’t add people beyond the ‘three degrees’!”

The so-called “three degrees” is a concept derived from the “six degrees of division theory”. According to the Six Degrees of Separation Theory: There will be no more than six people between you and any stranger. That is to say, through a maximum of six people, you can meet any stranger, even if he is the President of the United States.

“…Those who don’t pay membership fees can only add up to fifteen friends. Also, you can’t view the VIP content in the comment area….Okay, that’s all I can think of. Take this information back and look at it, what’s there? Comments can be emailed to me in time. After three days, the trial will be launched.”

“Yes, boss!”

“By the way, the Nasdaq is still falling into the abyss. The whole Silicon Valley, and even the entire United States, is full of unemployed people. We have to seize this opportunity to seize the market at a lower cost than those headhunters. As for capital, you don’t have to Worry, I will get at least $20 million in VC funding for the company in two months!”

Feeling the ambition revealed in Guo Shouyun’s words, Tim George nodded vigorously.

“Tim, when LinkedIn’s registered users exceed 100 million and become profitable, we can consider going public. As a company veteran, I will not treat you badly!”

“Thank you boss!”

Tim George said gratefully.

There is nothing more inspiring than tangible benefits.

“carry on!”

Guo Shouyun, who was very satisfied with the effect of his words and deeds of ‘painting a big cake’, waved his hand.

After Tim George left, Guo Shouyun looked at the calendar card next to him. It was May 5th, and there were only 19 days before the start of the Champions League final held at the Stade de France in Paris, France on the 24th.

The reason why he went to great lengths to get this $80 million cash reserve for himself was to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune from the football lottery.

This is the only chance Guo Shouyun could think of to make huge profits in 2000, apart from writing books.

“I used to be complained about by my family. Playing games, watching football games, and reading online novels delayed my studies. I didn’t expect that it would still be useful for a day?”

Guo Shouyun, who recalled the past, sighed and shook his head.

Like the vast majority of football fans in China, he only gradually understood and completely fell in love with the world’s No. 1 sport after China’s football entered the World Cup in 2002.

At the time, his favourites were Real Madrid and Manchester United. Both are star-studded and have a successful commercial promotion in China. In contrast, Barcelona will be inferior.

However, because of the long history, apart from the Champions Cup and the World Cup, he doesn’t remember the winners of the European Cup 10 years ago, and the winners of the five major leagues except the Premier League.

Of course, Guo Shouyun didn’t need to remember too much. He just used his pre-knowledge in football to make the necessary capital accumulation. In a few years, he may not even see this money.

“Wendy, come in!”

Guo Shouyun pressed the phone and said.

“Boss, are you looking for me?”

Not long after, the beautiful and intellectual Wendy Solo pushed the door and walked in.

“Hmm! How’s the survey on the American game industry going?”

“just started!”

Guo Shouyun nodded, “Go and apply to Tim and add two more employees to form the secretariat directly under the chairman. You are the team leader.”

“Yes!”

“In addition, you registered a new company called ‘Matrix Pictures’ for me, whose main business is cultural entertainment!”

I have listened to so many songs in my previous life, but I don’t remember most of them except for a few who pretended to be X. But most of the movies and TV shows he watched were clearly remembered. Also, pictures are inherently easier to remember than words. Therefore, with this foundation, Guo Shouyun certainly will not be indifferent to the hugely profitable entertainment industry.

“Matrix Films?”

Wendy Solow was a little surprised, this is “incompetent” with the Internet social industry of ‘LinkedIn’.

“Is there a problem?”

“No!”

Wendy Solo shook her head quickly. As an assistant, the boss’s decision is not her responsibility.

“Then get busy!”

After Wendy Solo went out, Guo Shouyun looked at the hundreds of folders in “My Documents” and focused on “Pirates of the Caribbean”, “Fifty Shades of Grey” and “Island Bookstore” that had already been written.

However, the “Fifty Shades of Grey” trilogy made Guo Shouyun very tangled. Because after the publication of the book before time-travel, almost all the negative comments in the critics were overwhelming. However, it will sell a set every 2 seconds after it goes on sale, and the sales volume of the complete set of books exceeds 100 million, surpassing the sum of the total works of “Harry Potter”, which really makes Guo Shouyun unable to give up.

Moreover, what he lacks most now is funds. “Fifty Shades of Grey” is the most suitable object. Moreover, the domineering president fell in love with the female hanging silk, Mary Suwen, and wrote it in Guo Shouyun’s writing style, which is most likely to sell well.

“Forget it, I won’t change it. Anyway, I just made my debut. The level of UU reading www.uukanshu.com is generally normal. But in this case, “Island Bookstore” cannot be published at this time!” Guo Shouyun thought.

In terms of pure literature, the level of “Island Bookstore” exceeds that of “Fifty Shades of Grey” by a hundred streets. The two are not at the same level at all, and it is easy for people to associate that the author is not the same person.

However, without “Island Bookstore”, minus “Fifty Shades of Grey”, and relying on “Pirates of the Caribbean”, which has not been verified by the publishing market, Guo Shouyun is not confident that he can impress those savvy “publishing agents”.

After thinking for a while, he turned his attention to another novel he had just written halfway through.

“”The Da Vinci Code”?”

In later generations, both in film and novel, it was extremely successful. Among them, the rigorous and unexpected reasoning plot and the brain-burning plot have allowed it to break the sales record of American novels with 7.5 million copies, and the cumulative global sales volume has exceeded 65 million copies. 76 weeks long and translated into 42 languages, it even rivals the popular British bestsellers Harry Potter books in sales.

But after thinking about it, Guo Shouyun quickly denied it again. Although he has read the novel many times and the movie several times, it involves too much knowledge in religion, mathematics, history, philosophy, and cryptography, and he can’t finish writing it in the next half month. Moreover, like “Island Bookstore”, it exceeds the level of “Fifty Shades of Grey” by too much.

“It seems that it is the most suitable for going around!” After thinking for a long time, “That’s it!”

Guo Shouyun clicked the mouse, and the automatic printer next to him quickly started working. After a short time, a piece of A4 paper slowly slipped out of it, and on its surface, there was a line of black English: “Where are the Fantastic Beasts”!
