Chapter 1406 On the Airplane

Rebirth of a Perfect Future · 第1406章 飞机上

The signing ceremony ended quickly. Zhao Fusheng did not attend the celebration reception; instead, he had Dong Chenxi participate in all these matters as his representative.

Then, after several phone calls with Zuckerberg, Tan Kaixuan, and others, Zhao Fusheng left the United States.

Shortly after he left the US, Facebook officially announced a board restructuring.

"Why did you suggest Zuckerberg restructure the board?"

Sitting on the plane, Dong Chenxi asked Zhao Fusheng with some confusion.

As a witness, she naturally knew what Zhao Fusheng had said to Zuckerberg and Tan Kaixuan, so she couldn't understand why Zhao Fusheng was pushing for the Facebook board restructuring.

With a chuckle, Zhao Fusheng blinked. "What, you think the Facebook board restructuring is a bad thing?"

"It's not about good or bad," Dong Chenxi said to Zhao Fusheng. "Doesn't your approach give Zuckerberg even more control over Facebook?"

Clearly, Dong Chenxi was also very wary of Zuckerberg.

Zhao Fusheng was a bit surprised; he hadn't expected Dong Chenxi to have such thoughts.

"What, surprised?"

Having known each other for so many years, although Zhao Fusheng was good at hiding his emotions, Dong Chenxi could still detect a hint from his reaction and smiled as she asked.

Zhao Fusheng didn't deny it. He nodded. "Yeah, I originally thought you had a pretty good impression of Zuckerberg."

"My impression of him is neither good nor bad." Dong Chenxi shrugged and explained slowly. "But you know, as the person in charge of the Facebook project, I had to do some research on him. But you know what? What I saw in that research report, combined with the Zuckerberg I've interacted with, showed me two completely different images."

It was clear that Dong Chenxi had done a thorough analysis.

"Tell me more, in detail." Zhao Fusheng became interested in what Dong Chenxi was saying. He had only asked casually, but he didn't expect Dong Chenxi to give him such a pleasant surprise.

"It's nothing much." Although a bit puzzled by Zhao Fusheng's attitude, Dong Chenxi still explained. "I just think that Zuckerberg is very good at performing."

She paused, tilted her head in thought, reorganized her words, and repeated, "To be precise, he seems to have a desire to perform, always liking to show people different sides of himself."

"When it comes to Facebook, Zuckerberg acts like a tyrant." Dong Chenxi said to Zhao Fusheng. "I believe you know that too, right?"

Zhao Fusheng nodded. "That's right."

He knew this better than anyone. Whether in his past life or now, Zuckerberg's importance to Facebook was the same. Anyone who coveted Facebook would become a thorn in his side.

That was why, even if he had to sell his Facebook shares through financing, Zhao Fusheng tried not to fall out with Zuckerberg.

This guy was destined to be a man worth tens of billions of dollars. Being remembered by such a super-rich person was definitely not a happy thing.

"And have you noticed that in daily life, Zuckerberg interacts with us like a program?" Dong Chenxi suddenly said to Zhao Fusheng with a smile.

A program?

Zhao Fusheng was stunned, clearly not understanding what Dong Chenxi meant.

Seeing Zhao Fusheng's confused look, Dong Chenxi explained seriously, "It's as if it's pre-set, step by step, completely following each procedure."

Zhao Fusheng was taken aback. After thinking carefully, it really seemed that way.

"I'm not saying Zuckerberg is deeply scheming. I just think he is extremely rational and never does anything without reason. He must calculate and consider thoroughly beforehand, then choose what benefits him most." Dong Chenxi said slowly.

Zhao Fusheng remained silent. He had to admit that Dong Chenxi's words made a lot of sense.

From a behavioral psychology perspective, everyone's actions have traces. The saying 'character determines destiny' actually has a scientific basis.

Although Dong Chenxi's analysis was just her own opinion, even Zhao Fusheng had to admit that her analysis, to some extent, really matched Mark Zuckerberg.

"See, I wasn't wrong, was I?" Dong Chenxi saw Zhao Fusheng's expression and reaction and knew he agreed with her.

"That's right." Zhao Fusheng smiled helplessly.

He couldn't deny it against his conscience. After all, not everyone, like a certain esports player who never forgot his original intention, could treat facts as invisible. That wasn't youthful ignorance; that was an esports giant baby.

"So I think we will eventually fall out with Zuckerberg." Dong Chenxi cautiously glanced at Zhao Fusheng's expression and said slowly, "That's why I think restructuring the Facebook board is not a good thing."

Zhao Fusheng nodded. He had to say that from a commercial interest perspective, Dong Chenxi's consideration was understandable. In fact, if he didn't have his foreknowledge, he would have been convinced by her words.

But the problem was that Zhao Fusheng was a reborn person.

Although reluctant to admit it, Zhao Fusheng had to say that Zuckerberg was too important to Facebook.

In the original history, after losing the operational expert Sean Parker, Zuckerberg alone brought the website to its peak and became one of the top ten richest people in the world.

Although some say that Zuckerberg secretly caused Sean Parker's departure, in Zhao Fusheng's view, that was purely a conspiracy theory.

For Mark Zuckerberg, who saw Facebook's development as crucial, losing Sean Parker was a loss far greater than what he gained.

"Do you think anyone in our company is suitable to run Facebook?" Zhao Fusheng casually asked Dong Chenxi.

Dong Chenxi was taken aback, then smiled bitterly and shook her head. "Of course not."

In fact, although she wanted to mention Dong Guoxiang's name, Dong Chenxi had to admit that Dong Guoxiang's ability to run a booming social networking site like Facebook was still lacking.

Back when they were working on the virtual community, her ex-boyfriend Wang Zhen and Dong Guoxiang worked together, and she knew very well what Dong Guoxiang's capability level was.

Simply put, even if Future Investment now gained control of Facebook and handed it over to Dong Guoxiang, Dong Chenxi thought it would at best maintain the status quo. Further development would be difficult.

This, she knew, and Zhao Fusheng knew too.
