"Oh, and," Feng Yiping remembered something and added, "Knowing who your neighbor is is actually a security guarantee, right? Otherwise, you don't know whether the person living next door is a law-abiding citizen or a terrorist,"

"This, at least in Silicon Valley, we don't have to worry about this issue," Mike felt that he had to defend himself. "Silicon Valley security has always been very good."

"It's pretty good, but it's not better to have more security?"

Moreover, I know that in more than a month, when the Twin Towers in Manhattan collapse, you will not think so again.

"This is what I think now, the name of this website, I thought of a neighborhood, nextdoor," Feng Yiping concluded his statement, "What do you have any opinions and opinions?"

Because I have been in China later, I have only heard of Facebook, but I have never used it, and I don’t know about Facebook’s development history. Therefore, Feng Yiping didn’t know at this time that Facebook was almost the same when it first started at Harvard.

However, because it is mainly for college students, Facebook registration does not correspond to the home address, but the student ID.

"It sounds good," said Jin Ling, "but how to make a profit, advertising?"

"Yes, according to your idea, each community is separated. Will the advertising delivery effect be good?" This is Hong Haoran's opinion.

"Mike, what do you have?"

"I heard what you said, this is indeed a blue ocean. My problem is the same as theirs, and it is also a profit problem. During the growth period, there are not many registered users. Large companies will not spend money to invest in advertising. According to this view, before the registered users are not up to scale, the company's financial situation will not be very optimistic."

He was just talking tactfully. He just wanted to know if there was so much money to burn in the early stage.

"Advertising is definitely an important means of profit, but the main task of the website in the early stage is to develop registered users, and to develop registered users, so that these users feel that going to nextdoor can solve practical problems, help each other, and promote neighborhood harmony. As long as we have a large number of such sticky users, we will be successful."

"But, this investment?"

"Don't worry, the initial investment is completely fine," there are still hundreds of millions of dollars in the account!

"And, although each community is separated, the businesses in the community are not good at advertising, right?"

As for how to make profits after having a large number of users, please, is it difficult to get Feng Yiping, who has come from the mobile Internet era?

Even if you don’t advertise, there are too many profitable means. For example, if you cover tens of thousands of communities and have tens of millions of registered household users, then you can do group buying casually, and won’t you make money?

For example, Dianping.com can also be derived from it. It can also sell virtual products, hold various paid surveys, and share third-party application funds...

Also, with so many real family users, I guess those who run for various public offices in the future will use this website as a treasure land for chasing votes. Isn’t it also a way to make money?

"If everyone understands, then I think this project should be carried out like this. While formulating the overall plan, create a website and find a community to test the operation. After that, it will be possible to quickly expand to the whole country?"

The three nodded.

"The General Jin was responsible for formulating a plan, and Mr. Hong and Mike helped to determine an action plan first, such as how much money to invest, how many personnel to be equipped, and the corresponding timetable for each step.

Mike understands the national conditions of the United States better, and the website design is mainly about you, and Mr. Hong assists.

Let’s make arrangements like this first, how about it, no problem!”

"I just have one question. What are you going to do?" Jin Ling asked.

"I have been working hard all these days, and now I feel very tired, very tired, and need a vacation.

Besides, in terms of planning, I am not as good as you, in terms of technology, I am not as good as Mike and Mr. Hong. So you elites are discussing these things. Before the start of school, I want to relax and observe the customs and beauty of the United States,"

Jin Ling knew that he was like this! But there was nothing he could do. Who told him to insist on being a student now? He was not satisfied with his studies in China and even came abroad.

But his vision is indeed amazing! Sometimes she wants to open his head and see how it works inside.

"Yiping and I are preparing to drive along Highway 66. After arriving in Chicago, we will fly to New York and Washington from there," Huang Jingping said to Jin Ling in a low voice.

This is also what they planned. After the autumn school starts, there will be no such long vacation. In a few months, there will be a holiday. Maybe you will be pregnant by then, so it is not easy to travel for a long-distance self-driving tour like this.

Of course, there is a reason Feng Yiping didn't say that the situation in the United States before 911 and after 911 was completely different.

"You two are absolutely not allowed," said the others. When Jin Ling heard this statement, he immediately opposed it. "It's not in China, I'm not familiar with the place. Besides, Highway 66 is very deserted now. You are planning to drive yourself, spanning 3 time zones, 8 states, and extending thousands of kilometers. What if something happens? I absolutely do not agree,"

Highway 66 was originally built along the terrain, with ups and downs and winding road conditions, not to mention that it was abandoned for many years after being replaced by an interstate highway, and it was not even marked on the map.

If it weren't for some people who had feelings for this "mother's road" calling for various measures to protect it, this road would probably have become history and would not have returned to the American highway system.

Even so, because there are few passing vehicles, the various facilities along the highway are not as good as those newly built highways, and it is not convenient for food, accommodation or repairing cars.

There are not many cars passing by, what if they break down in the wilderness? The countryside of the United States does not have as thoughtful services as big cities, and the deserted countryside of the United States will naturally not be as safe as the noble residential areas of big cities.

"It's just over ten days," Feng Yiping said with a smile.

"No, I firmly disagree," Jin Ling interrupted him, "If you go to the east by plane or train, I agree, and drive by myself, I will never agree. Otherwise, let's call your parents now and ask their opinions?"

In order to show respect, they were all said in English, and Mike heard it all. He realized now that Jin Ling and Feng Yiping did not seem to be simple relationships between employees and bosses. He smiled and said, "If you insist on going Yiping, this problem will be easy to solve. I sent two security guards from the company, one man and one woman, and drove a car to follow them."

Huang Jingping gave up now, "Yiping, let's go to Los Angeles first, and then take a plane to go directly to the east, okay?"

Can you disagree? Feng Yiping regrets what he said just now. If he didn't say it, how could so many troubles come from? What does Jin Ling want to do after he goes back? Who can stop him?

Can you not agree now? You have to go to your parents to complain, okay? "Okay, it's actually easier,"

"This reminds me, Mike, please remember, or draw two people to be responsible for their safety. They are fine in the city. As long as they leave San Francisco, there must be someone to accompany them," Jin Ling made another domineering decision.

She is not worried at home. Feng Yiping has now made the dealings to Zhongnanhai, but in the United States, they have nothing to do with it, and they are not in sufficient staff, so they should try to eliminate the hidden dangers in terms of safety.

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

Feng Yiping did not object to this matter. In addition to being safer, the key is that many things are done on their own, just like Jacob the last time, why not do it?

"I'll give you, Mike," Feng Yiping took him to the parking lot. Seeing that no one was following him, he asked quietly, "Is there any news over Georgetown?"

"I asked someone to find out," Mike also whispered, "I went through the school leave procedure in May, but the reason for the school leave is unclear. I have asked someone to go to her house to find out the situation. When there is any news, I will give you timely feedback."

"Thank you!" Feng Yiping patted his shoulder, but stopped talking.

"Don't worry," Mike said, "Lisa doesn't know about this." (To be continued.)
