Chapter 468 The Charlie Rose Show

Feng Yiping was sitting in a simple studio in New York at this time, with the lights accurately projecting on a round table in the studio with only two water cups. The surroundings were pitch black, and the overall look was very dreamy.

If you only look at this set, it is a bit like a corner of a Chinese restaurant, and it is a Chinese restaurant of average grade, but it is better hygiene.

If Feng Yiping hadn't done his homework in advance, he wouldn't have believed that this place was the scene of the famous American Charlie Ross show.

The old man opposite is more like a university professor or a corporate executive, and he is really the host of other talk shows in the United States that he remembers.

"Feng, then let's start?" Charlie Ross took a stack of paper in front of him and said to Feng Yiping with a smile--there is not even a computer on this table.

"OK,"

The on-site staff began to count down, and soon, Charlie Ross talked to the camera, "In the past year, a young man from ancient China has frequently received attention from the world in the fields of technology and capital. The deeper he has learned, the more he can discover his extraordinary things."

"He is a world-renowned strategic management expert; he is the chairman of the board meeting of the youngest listed company in the United States; he is an investor and executive of famous American high-tech companies such as Apple and Google; he is the founder of social networking websites with the most users in the world; he is the proposer of several advanced concepts; he is the pioneer of several fields; he is the richest man in mainland China; his investment in the United States not long ago set a new record of single investment in China and the United States...,"

Feng Yiping put his hands on the table and watched Charlie Ross quickly say this long paragraph without missing a word, and was a little impressed.

This level is no less than our later good tongue Hua Shao.

Young Master Hua is just hosting the column I love to remember lyrics. This old man can not only host, but with his memory, he will definitely achieve good results as a guest.

"We are very happy to invite Yiping Feng to the scene today. Welcome you," he turned to Feng Yiping opposite the table.

"Thank you, I'm honored to be here today," he said politely, and a question came over there, "Sorry, do you don't have an English name?"

This question cannot be vague. Later you see, any businessman or celebrity who wants to make gold in China must show off a few Chinese words. You are doing well in the United States, but you don’t even have an English name. Not to mention respect, first of all, this is a question of attitude.

"In 2000, when I was invited to the United States for the first time, I chose a name in English, Vincent, but I found that everyone still likes to call me Feng. Gradually, this name was rarely used later,"

"I understand, because you are the unique 'Von'," said Charlie Rose. "So, how do you feel as an entrepreneurial idol in the minds of young people around the world?"

Feng Yiping, who was sitting very properly, moved his body, "I am really under a lot of pressure."

"Why? Aren't you happy, or proud?"

"There is happiness, but there is no pride. As for the pressure, it is mainly because idols are the sustenance of the beautiful and perfect wishes in most people's minds. This is a heavy burden, because I know that I am not perfect, and I am worried that in the future, those who regard me as idols will disappoint,"

"I'm actually just a very ordinary person, but I'm just lucky."

This is also a foreshadowing in advance.

"I think your pressure comes more from the business side? I heard that you often work late into the night?"

"Yes, you know, San Francisco is 16 hours apart from China. When I was working in Silicon Valley, it happened to be midnight in China. When I went to work there, it was already night here. Sometimes I would be busy until late at night to handle some work,"

"Do you enjoy this kind of life if you don't go to parties, don't go to exercise, don't go to leisure with friends?"

"I enjoy this kind of work, I think it's the norm for many entrepreneurs, it's no big deal, and I'm lucky that all the projects we are currently operating are going very well,"

"We know that you are the richest man in mainland China and you have billions of dollars in wealth. What is the main reason for you to be so successful?"

"The main thing is the goal. I think we must first set the goal as big as possible. For example, not only to pursue one person's wealth, but to focus on driving more people to become rich, then your achievements should be relatively greater, because with such a goal, you will formulate a corresponding action plan."

"We have seen relevant reports. Under your direct guidance, at least in your hometown, more than 200,000 people have become rich. I have to say that this is one, this is a very great move," when he said this, Charlie Rose finally had some feelings, not as stable as before.

"No, I didn't think about making myself great, I just tried my best to make myself noble,"

"So, let me briefly say, what benefits does so much money bring to you?"

"It must be said that there are many benefits. First of all, you have the ability to do something according to your own wishes, and sometimes you can even ignore gains and losses, such as the investments I have in my hometown."

"You have more and better opportunities?"

“Of course, but those investments are something I think are very valuable, and I’m increasing significantly every year.”

“What about other aspects?”

"You have to admit that even if you don't bring money in your pocket, even if you wear clothes that add up to less than $100, you can still look at each store on Fifth Avenue without any guilt. Now I have this courage,"

The waiters in some domestic luxury stores, like domestic flight attendants, have a high opinion of themselves. Whether they look at others or themselves, they are too superficial.

However, qualified luxury goods sales personnel all have the same vision as actuaries. There are many such people on the old luxury streets like Fifth Avenue.

"To be honest, when you were so young, I didn't have the courage like you. I believe many people don't have the courage like you,"

Feng Yiping discovered that Charlie Rose is suitable for telling cold jokes. Some of the things he said were very humorous, but he himself always had that tepid expression.

"You said that the idea of ​​doing business was to change your life. So, now there are many young people who want to change their lives. What successful experiences do you have to share with them?"

"First of all, it is naturally the goal. Of course, it is a big blue ocean. The reason why it is said to be a blue ocean is that everyone is working hard on the direction of the people. Perhaps the market potential is great, but the chance of success is very small."

"Secondly, we need to have a clear profit model, especially for companies like the Internet that will definitely burn money,"

"We can actually combine these two points. First, we can choose a small goal, which is to see what problems we can solve for some people. If you see this problem, that is the target market. If you can solve it, then there will be a corresponding profit model."

"Finally, in addition to standardized management, etc., entrepreneurs must focus, especially in the early stages,"

In the early stage of starting a business, you throw a lot of work to others to complete, so your chances of success are definitely not high.

Not everyone can have the conditions like Feng Yiping. Not only do they have funds, but they also have a very accurate grasp of the future. Only then can they dare to delegate power with confidence and boldness.

"All your projects follow this pattern?"

"Yes, without exception, and it is becoming more and more detailed. For example, our acquisition of Netflix, the entire acquisition process, I mean, from the preliminary evaluation, preparation, to the final end, the accumulated text information can almost be loaded with a truck. We should know Netflix better than most of Netflix's employees,"

This is also his informal response to the report on USA Today.

"So you have already had a very clear plan?"

"Yes,"

Feng Yipingman thought he would talk about youtube next, which was also their main purpose this time.

However, Charlie Rose asked another question, "As far as I know, you have a good relationship with many people in the American business community, but you also have some conflicts with some people, such as Ms. Whitman of ebay,"

Feng Yiping couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. It turned out that this old man was also mean. (To be continued.)
