Zero: "Yes."

Host: "How much is this car worth?"

Zero: "This car has not been sold in the US market yet. It is shipped from Europe. I can't remember the specific amount. It's quite expensive."

Host: "Okay, I don't remember how much money I bought a luxury car. I can only say that you must have made a lot of money. Did you make it on Twitter?"

Zero: "No, Twitter has only exceeded one million users recently, and it is not expected to make a profit. This money is the money I make in China. I have a relatively large website in China. Otherwise, I don't have the money to come to the United States to study."

Host: "It seems that your website has been a few years. I accidentally found that you have a website called Wei·Bo in China, with more users than Twitter. Why is this? Did Wei·Bo do it earlier than Twitter?"

Zero: "No, the original version of Wei·Bo was in English. This is actually the prototype of Twitter. However, I have a lot of promotion resources in PRC, which is where my career started. In addition, most of the developers are from China, so Wei·Bo will have a larger number of users. However, the US market is the largest. Once the number of Twitter users increases, it will immediately have a relatively high value. Currently, venture capital institutions have valued Twitter at $100 million."

The host said in surprise: "Wow, good guy, I have interviewed a lot of Billionaires. You seem to be the youngest, are you twenty-one?"

Zero: "Yes, you have a good memory. I'm telling this valuation here, and I want to say to VC, don't look for me if it's lower than this valuation, if it's lower than this valuation, but if you want to control the valuation, don't come to me if you want to control the valuation. When I was in China, I had solved financial problems. Continuing to start a business is to do something interesting, so Twitter must fully reflect my will. If you want to control the valuation, I will not agree."

Host: "Why is Twitter so valuable? What exactly does it do? Of course, I have used your website, but most viewers may not have heard of it and don't know what it is. And I also want to hear you, why does it make such a website? What is the concept of the product?"

Zero: "This is the idea I came up with when I was waiting for the train. The radio in the waiting hall will register which train arrives, which train will take a few minutes to leave, which train will be late, etc. The focus here is on the timeline, time is very important, or status is very important. Twitter is the purpose of telling the people who follow you what your current state is. It is important to contact friends, but some friends are separated and some friends cannot be together often, how do you keep in touch? Tell others that your current state is the same

A good way. I want to study in the United States. Stanford, Caltech, and Harvard University offered me an offer. I chose Stanford. I also went to Harvard to take a break from school and prepare to go to the school there in the future. And so on. In addition to the friends who have been by your side, your middle school classmates, your childhood childhood, your teacher, your EX, and friends you just met at a party. Many of them don’t have the chance to get to know you better, and at this time you need a tool. This is the most original spirit of Twitter. Some states are not just your attention.

, your friends will also follow you. You are afraid that your friends will miss a certain information, so Twitter has the function of forwarding. This kind of forwarding has amazing efficiency, so Twitter naturally has media attributes. A certain emergencies spread on Twitter very quickly, which is a good supplement to your traditional media. I suggest media practitioners look for news points on Twitter. Not only will people pay attention to the status of people, but also people pay attention to the status of institutions, so they can open a Twitter account.

The idea of ​​an individual account is also feasible. Our Twitter company has an account, and you can refer to the status mode posted on it. Not all statuses are suitable for holding a press conference and writing a long article. For example, when will we move to a public office, when will we plan to move? When will we start moving? When will we move? A series of timelines will give everyone who follows us a clear picture. This information status between important and unimportant will be well displayed on Twitter."

Host: "Oh, the amount of information is very large. It seems that Twitter is really good. I noticed that you just said, is it true that you are going to Harvard Biology?"

Zero: "It's true. My two major hobbies are the Internet and the other is biology. Biology is my major when I was at Dongda University in China. Biology is very smart. Among Americans, most people believe in religion, about 80%. It dropped to 40%. The top scientists, represented by the American Academy of Sciences, have a proportion of religious beliefs to 7%. Among the academicians, the proportion of mathematicians who believe in religion is the highest, with a dozen percentage points, followed by the academicians, about 7%. The proportion of biology scholars I love is the lowest, below 5%.

Host: "...Oh, Boy, we are live broadcasting around the world. You also know that the proportion of Americans who believe in religion is so high. You say that, it is simply a bombshell. I guess even your Twitter valuation will be affected. Even the US president dare not say that. I must give you a chance to clarify."

Zero: "I don't need this opportunity. I have said that Twitter's valuation is not a problem. What I need is not making big money. American politicians need to please the people without bottom line, I don't need it. I like the United States, not the American president. I especially don't like the Bush you just elected. This guy actually said that we atheists should not have the right to vote! What is this logic? Puritans, Buddhists, and Muslim can promote their own gods. Can't we promote no gods at all? In almost all religions, pagans are going to be killed, burned to death, and only we atheists are the most tolerant. We just tell you that there is no god at all. You believe in this and that, you are completely blinded by things passed down by ancient charlatans."

Host: "Maiga. Your words are so intense. I like you and I am very worried about your future."

Zero smiled faintly: "Thank you. This should be beyond the scope of this interview. Are we going to change the topic?"

Host: "Oh, it's okay, Boss said that in addition to the explosion, this interview can also be regarded as a personal interview with the founder of Twitter. You can say whatever you want, and you also said that the goddess of Liberty will protect you, haha, goddess, this is a god!"

Zero: "Hehe, this is just a beautiful statement. Religion is not so unbearable in my eyes. Faith is like people's customs and etiquette, like wearing swimsuits in serious occasions is unacceptable. I see Christians crossing their chests and Buddhists holding their hands together, and they feel normal, as long as there is joy or peace on their faces. I don't hate them, and I even feel relieved for their happy life. However, in formal occasions of big and big issues, religion should not cause trouble. The United Nations World Health Organization has encountered this many times.

It's a strange thing, to go to poor and backward places in Africa to do good things, vaccinate the children there, or something, but they will be resisted by the ignorant religious elements in the local area, saying that injections will hurt the body, soul, or something contrary to God's will. This is ridiculous. I am not a person who pursues nobility. The selfish genes of human beings determine that ordinary people cannot pursue this kind of thing. I am a person who talks about the bottom line. I don't oppose everyone's faith, but I dislike you to interfere with my unbelief, and even I promote freedom of not faith. This is the bottom line of freedom and fairness that has been violated."

Host: "It makes sense. You should have the freedom to believe, you should have the freedom to believe, you should have the freedom to promote your beliefs, and you should respect others' freedom to promote your beliefs. Alas, you think so much about this child. Sometimes I can't regard you as a twenty-one-year-old child."

Zero: "Twenty-one is not young anymore."

Host: "Will you become a US citizen in the future?"

Zero: "Yes, my career is here, and this choice is natural."

Host: "You really dare to say that as far as I know, in your motherland, you are not so tolerant. Your public claim to be a US citizen will have a great impact on your business in PRC."

Zero: "So I'm not suitable for business. Really, I like to start a business. When the business is mature, I'll leave it to people who can do business."

Host: "This is also a good idea. I wish you success! Anyway, let's go back to the topic of this interview. This explosion caused four cute children to lose their lives, including your good friend and roommate. I believe he is your good friend because you borrowed a car to drive for him. Yes?"

Zero: "Yes."

Host: "I didn't know you were so rich. Now I know, I'm worth 100 million. Someone asked on Twitter just now, would you do something for these students who suffered?"

Zero: "Of course. I will do my best to help them. I will help them with the aftermath of the students who died, the treatment of the injured students, and the damaged buildings. I have no idea about this. Let's discuss what to do in the future. I don't know what to do now."
