Poor Student Office Website: From Only 42 Yuan To Profit Millions.

Xiasha network, Hangzhou Xiasha almost no one knows, the daily traffic volume of up to 150 thousand people.

His founder was a boy born in 1983, named Shang Zhentao.

Today, his identity is the marketing director of Hangzhou Yi Sha Network Technology Co., Ltd.

So young, is he an able man?

In 2001, Shang Zhentao and his brother went to university together.

Because his family was poor, he only had a train ticket and 42 yuan, and he came to Guangshui from Hubei to study marketing in Zhejiang Sci-Tech University.

For the first time, he didn't know how to turn on the computer. It was the first time he had touched the computer.

"You can't open your computer?"

My classmates were surprised.

His rhetorical question made him hit hard.

Since then, with the help of his master, he quickly immersed himself in the computer world, and soaked himself in the computer room almost every day.

He is very proficient in computers.

In 2003 summer vacation, he and a classmate got the chance to practice.

"When the company heard that we were Xiasha, they asked Xiasha what to do over there. The place was very desolate.

At that time, I thought there was a comprehensive information carrier about the University Town, the industrial park, the house and so on.

Shang Zhentao said, "at that time, there was only a website called Hangzhou economic and Technological Development Zone in Xiasha, but the popularity was not high enough, and many people did not know it."

When he was bored during his internship, he and his classmates decided to find a website to do it, and also test their computer skills by the way.

So he spent 200 yuan with his classmates, bought the space and domain name, and launched the "www.xiashanet.com" website.

"It was very simple to make a website at that time. We moved the official online stuff and opened several forums."

It was not long before I returned to school and found that many people were on this website.

There are more and more people here. "

Shang Zhentao said, "later we realized that when the students searched for the word" Xiasha ", only our website was displayed on the page, so the click rate was particularly high.

"Through this website, I have met a group of partners and formed a Xiasha net studio."

Before long, a company in downtown Hangzhou found Shang Zhentao and was willing to work together to create websites.

Funds, equipment...

All at once.

It will not last long, and the country will begin to clean up the Internet in half a year.

Xiasha network was forced to close, investment companies withdrew and removed the server.

"On that day, I was disappointed and hurt."

The five or six people who worked together disbanded and returned to calm.

A pile of equipment spread out there, and Shang Zhentao had no intention to pick it up.

I will come back from winter vacation.

"I asked myself if I wanted to hold on.

Asked the partners, there are still two people willing to work.

Among them, a slightly better student took out the 10 thousand yuan tuition fee, and we bought the server with this money.

"Xiasha net" is reopened.

Since then, Shang Zhen ran the government, ran the streets, promoted his own technology, built websites for different departments and people, and made some income for the website.

Xiasha Internet has gradually restored popularity, and businesses are starting to take the initiative to advertise on the website.

In 2005, when Shang Zhentao was busy looking for a job when his classmate graduated, he was busy registering his own company.

Now, his profit has reached millions, with more than 30 employees, and Scheming Companies is developing horizontally.
