Chapter 14 Technology Deep Throat

This time, Cao Shen received a total of 192 messages and missed calls from 145 institutions.

In the current capital market of Dongguo, there are about 4,000 equity investment institutions, of which there are about 3,000 PEs that mainly invest in mid- and late-stage companies, less than 500 early-stage venture capitals, and some mixed ones.

Among them, only about 20% are active.

Only the top 100 of these 4,000 companies can achieve results.

Therefore, it seems that among the approximately 80,000 practitioners, there are less than 2,000 people in the core circle, and only 200 of these 2,000 are famous.

It seems that not many people contacted Cao Shen this time, but it was already a big hit in the circle.

However, Cao Shen did not reply immediately. The key point is that he was not free at all!

Finally, two days later, Uncle Cao replied to all investors with a message:

Thank you very much for your attention. I am flattered.

I am sorry that I have been closed for the past two days to develop new products.

Tongcao Technology's "Tech Deep Throat" news website was officially launched at 8 am today.

This website uses our latest website building technology, which is now open source and can be downloaded for free and provides APP production and application hosting services.

The website address of Tech Deep Throat, the APP download link and the website open source website building tool address are as follows:...

After two days of waiting, the investors began to doubt whether this mobile phone number was a mistake.

A crisp "ding" sounded.

Replied!

Live number!

The person!

What? Released a new product again?

Technology website?

There are many technology websites now. You said you are doing instant messaging well, why do you want to go off track?

How much money can technology media make? How much can the valuation be!

This kid!

No, we have to get him back quickly!

Let's take a look at the website first, so that we can encourage and comfort it later...

So Tech Deep Throat welcomed its first batch of "angel users".

As Qian Ming, a partner of R&F Angel who has always had a keen sense of smell, he naturally belongs to the group of people who received text messages.

He was eating breakfast on the rooftop of a five-star hotel near the river in Shanghai.

As an investor, business trips are commonplace. He just arrived in Shanghai last night and has six projects lined up to look at today.

Tired?

Tired!

But passionate!

Especially when he received Cao Shen's message, he was more excited than drinking coffee.

No, there are too few excellent projects.

He looks at two or three hundred projects a year, and only three or four are really worth investing money in.

And Tongcao Technology must be the most eye-catching cub this year!

As soon as he saw the message, he directly and decisively clicked on the APP download link of Technology Deep Throat.

Then he opened the web link to look at it first, although it consumed a lot of traffic, and it was roaming traffic.

But investors,

This traffic is spent!

Although the hotel also has WIFI, too many people use it, and the slow speed affects his galloping heart.

Hey, this strong dark style is like the preserved egg in his hand.

Just this UI style is different from the technology websites that are used to using blue.

Wait, this webpage is well adapted to mobile phones!

No need to zoom in and out, it is extremely comfortable for the eyes.

The section on the homepage is not today's news, but called:

The God of Complaints is here.

A closer look shows that they are all categorized, with pictures and texts, and small operation videos,

APP reviews!

Click on each review, and you will find not only information about the product, but also company information, founder background information, company registration address and contact email.

Qian Ming was excited just by this content section.

This is simply a tailor-made information source for investors to find projects!

I like it, I like it so much!

And this strong style of complaining is simply a perfect match for the dark UI style.

No, no, no, it can't be called complaining, it's a very professional and objective review.

Look at them, every APP has subdivided review categories.

Weaknesses in product design concepts, fantasy points in business intentions, slots in functions and operations, technical defects, lack of imagination, weaknesses in user type scalability...

Very professional! Richer than the evaluation indicators they usually use for projects!

Moreover, many of the entries make sense.

Some of them even gave Qian Ming a sense of enlightenment.

"Highlight! Highlight! This is the biggest difference of Tech Deep Throat! No wonder it is called Deep Throat!"

The current technology media are all stereotyped porters. Except for the UI, the content is similar.

Tech Deep Throat has style! Attitude! Practical information!

Most importantly, it is so valuable to investors!

Wait!

I found it again!

While browsing unconsciously, Qian Ming realized that he did not have endless clicks today:

"Next page"

but just kept turning down naturally, always and always!

Comfortable!

This interactive method is really fucking, how did they come up with it!

After scrolling for a while:

"Shh, there are comments under this app called Le Tianqi, and the comments have been liked 23 times!

Cao Hong! Starlight Angel Investment!

This old man is very quick, very impressive."

Not wanting to fall behind, Qian Ming also wanted to join the comment army immediately.

"Do I need to register to post? Register with my phone number? Register!"

I found an APP for a music community and posted a few comments.

I continued browsing by the same application type, tools, games, entertainment...

There are thousands of APPs, everything you need, and I can't stop scrolling.

This interactive method is so creative! So practical!

It turns out that this is the new website architecture released by Tongcao Technology!

It must be used!

I immediately sent the URL to my assistant:

"Send this website to the more than 40 companies we invested in, and especially emphasize that this is the future browsing and interactive method for mobile phones!

Let them all use it quickly. The link address at the back is a free open source download, and you can also apply for APP production outsourcing and service hosting.

This matter is urgent, do it now!"

With the excitement of not wanting to be left behind and the mood of discovering a new world, I arranged the most important work of the day.

Qian Ming continued to experience "Technology Deep Throat".

It's very special that the God of Slots is here, go and check out the news section!

Although everyone does the news similarly, there is no expectation, but what if...

Come on, give me another surprise! Early in the morning, have a good day!

Then, Qian Ming couldn't stop browsing...

I don't know what kind of black technology this website has, but the next news is always what he wants to see!

For example, when he reads automotive electronics news, he will scroll down from the whole machine to the parts, to the upstream and downstream industrial chain, to the competitive relationship, to the prediction of technology and market development direction, to industry gossip...

It is a complete knowledge map!

It leads him to understand all aspects of the industry from a piece of news!

Qian Ming spent the whole morning browsing on the hard chair in the restaurant, his tailbone was tingling, and his mobile phone was almost out of power...

Oh my God!

This technology deep throat is really a fucking deep throat!

Wait, I have been browsing for a whole morning, so many pictures and videos, and it has not been shut down!

What a compression level!

Awesome!

I resisted the urge to continue browsing and returned to the main interface. A banner appeared on the homepage:

Today's Best Commentator: R&F Angel Investment Qian Ming

Likes: 631 Comments and replies: 72

Related applications: Dolphin Music

What, I am on the headlines!

Qian Ming's face flushed. Who can see Tech Deep Throat at this time?

Colleagues!

Entrepreneurs!

Gaining recognition from peers and entrepreneurs, this is the real style!

Taking advantage of the last bit of power, Qian Ming quickly commented on multiple applications.

Until the phone automatically shut down.

Hurry up and go back to plug in the power to see other people's likes!

Ouch, rubbed the numb and stiff buttocks.

Old, old,

The young are formidable, the future is all for the young.

Cao Shen, you are the brightest star this year!

That's right, Tech Deep Throat's website not only uses the ultimate image compression technology, but also uses the "recommendation algorithm".

Let you run like a stunner, can't stop.

However, the system is determined not to open source the recommendation algorithm again, so that it will not be the same twice!

Moreover, the algorithm module is not provided, and the system is limited to data processing by itself.

However, for Cao Shen, this is enough.

The reason why the instant messaging module and website building tool are open source is that sooner or later someone will do these two things.

Even if the compression technology is not as good as the system, as long as time is given, it can be done so that it is not obvious to the naked eye and hearing.

As for the waterfall-type browsing method, it is even simpler. As long as you can think of it, it is not difficult to do it.

Technology will only have advantages within a time dimension.

And creativity is even easier to be copied.

Therefore, instead of taking these two things that can be tinkered with sooner or later as your core capabilities, it is better to spread them out and do something else.

As for the recommendation algorithm, it is difficult to surpass it.

First of all, your algorithm mechanism, and then you need a lot of data for training.

This includes not only technical issues, but also engineering issues.

Moreover, the algorithm can form a certain degree of barrier through accumulation.

Therefore, Cao Shen never thought about open-sourcing the recommendation algorithm. He wants to use this thing himself.

As for Qian Ming's "Best of the Day", it was obviously manually selected by Cao Shen.

R&F Angel Investment is the first sponsor that Cao Shen got "agency fees" by complaining.

So when the name of this organization appeared in the system, Cao Shen noticed it and searched for Qian Ming's photo on the Internet. Oh, the elevator guy.

He immediately arranged for him!

Of course, it was definitely not for "repaying a favor".

The typical model of angel investment is to cast a wide net and try your luck. One project will cover all losses.

Therefore, angel investors need to be active in the market, need exposure, and need to establish a persona so that more entrepreneurs can know them and find them, so that they can conduct auditions.

This can save a lot of effort compared to finding projects one by one.

And because they invest in early-stage projects, each project does not cost too much money, and there are the most early-stage projects in the market, so they have more projects in their hands than mid- and late-stage investors.

Early-stage projects have no psychological barriers to using ready-made open source modules. In order to save time and labor costs, they are also happy to outsource APPs for 10,000 yuan.

Therefore, people like Qian Ming are very good "setters".

And they will definitely be active online to "drive traffic" for themselves.

Unlike mid- and late-stage investors, they are more reserved and do not have many projects in hand, because there are not many mid- and late-stage projects in the entire market.

Not only did Cao Shen give Qian Ming, but he also generously voted for investors from many other angel institutions.

There is not much difference between them, and there is enough motivation.

Let's compete, elevator guys!

The first battle was a victory. With the release of the technology deep throat, those who hesitated to apply for the editor position earlier no longer hesitated.

Not only that, Cao Shen also set up a recruitment page on the website.

Various resumes came in.

People must be recruited, and not all of them can work from home.

The technology deep throat is just a small step to prolong life.

Therefore, Cao Shen needs a formal office.

The reason why he asked the system to rent a commercial and residential apartment was that he planned to put the office in the same building.

This can save time on the road, and renting a studio instead of a large house is not something Cao Shen cannot afford with his current financial resources.

Instead, it is small, but fully functional, and the key is that it is close to the door!

You can go out by just lifting your legs, saving time as much as possible!

The promotion method of "Tech Deep Throat" is undoubtedly very efficient, because the most frequent visitors to technology websites are actually investors who are always looking for projects, and entrepreneurs who are always paying attention to the dynamics of the industry and competitors.

Of course, there are also a large number of practitioners in the technology circle.

But for a new website, the most important thing is to capture the early wave of "angel users", that is, the so-called "opinion leaders".

As long as they are the basic base, a cold start can be done well, and the next wave of users can be quickly attracted.

The system has been doing very well recently, with more than a hundred APP production applications every day, and the number of new applications is only increasing.

But the system doesn't want good business at all!

As a dignified system, it has now become a "tool man"!

How embarrassing, where is the dignity of the system!

If the anger value of resentment can be transformed into substance, Cao Shen would have been burned more than ten or twenty times.

A great revenge is being deliberately brewed by the system.

Next time, the next random task and random reward, hum! Hum! Hum!

People sit at home, money comes from the sky.

That's probably it.

Although it looks good, making an APP is a one-time income.

The APP is outsourced once, and the team can modify and maintain it by themselves in the future.

So, Cao Shen is still very calm.

Whether it's money or not, it's all incidental to the extension of life.

Moreover, he has no time to spend money!

It doesn't matter how much money he makes.

Zhang Beixin is a little entangled. She wants to send a text message to Cao Shen to say hello.

But now Cao Shen is famous, and it seems snobbish to send it at this time.

But she really wants to get in touch with Cao Shen. She thinks Cao Shen can bring her a different career.

Just as she was hesitating about what to say and when to send it, the text message sound of the mobile phone suddenly rang.

It turned out to be Cao Shen!

My heart seemed to have skipped a beat...

I quickly wiped the sweat off my hands on my clothes, although the weather in Beiji was dry and I didn't sweat.

"Sister, are you going to change jobs?

I need to hire a general manager for my company, come and help me.

After tax, 20,000 a month, five insurances and one housing fund, and three salaries at the end of the year."

Zhang Beixin picked up the phone with both hands and replied seriously with one word:

"OK!"
