Zeng Muyang's Entrepreneurship

At that time, for Zeng Muyang, web design was still a brand-new thing, and he had to learn technology from scratch. Self-study in the company every day until evening 10, and exchange technology in the forum. He recalled: "At that time, I spent every day in the forum, and I answered everything that others didn't understand. If others don't understand what I don't understand, I will send an email to consult abroad, and then translate it to tell those in need. After half a year, my skills are not difficult, and everyone knows me. "

Later, Zeng Muyang, who was already well-known in the circle, entered Macromedia Company and was responsible for the technical consultation of all products. I am responsible for answering questions about these products. At this time, he found that there was a lack of a website for website designers and developers to exchange and learn, so he shared some experiences on his personal homepage and made many friends. Encouraged by his friends, his blue ideal forum was opened.

Soon after the website was established, it encountered the bursting of the Internet bubble, which dealt a great blow to the blue ideal. At that time, Blue's ideal space and funds came from the sponsorship of Internet companies, and with the closure of many Internet companies, the forum had to "move" frequently. Recalling this experience, Zeng Muyang said: "The Internet always needs technology. To do a good job in the website, it is inseparable from the support of technology, so our website cannot fail. "

However, the blue ideal once entered a dead end. In 2000, its server was borrowed. Unfortunately, there was something wrong with the server and all the data was lost. The hard work of Zeng Muyang and other partners for half a year is gone. Moreover, his company at that time also advised him to give up and put a lot of pressure on him. When he was about to give up, his friends did not abandon him and his blue ideal. Many members called to inquire about the situation and supported the website reconstruction in various ways. It is these that have strengthened Zeng Muyang's attitude of not giving up and made him dare to face one difficulty after another.

"If I don't do it, no one will. This is my historical mission. " Through the winter of the Internet, Zeng Muyang relied on this belief. He said, "My actions have at least inspired many people to do things well, do good things, do things to be proud of, and have good social benefits." Do a good job in the website and try your best to help others. So some people call Zeng Muyang the "old company commander" of website design.

At the beginning of 2003, the workload of the forum became heavier and heavier. Zeng Muyang simply quit his job with a monthly salary of 13 thousand, and while doing odd jobs, he developed his own forum. Although his income dropped a lot at that time, he still spent a lot of time answering questions on the forum, often busy until midnight.

Later, a company invested 4 million yuan to acquire the blue ideal, and Zeng Muyang decided to stick to his "blue ideal". At that time, he thought a lot and finally came to the conclusion that a website aimed at Internet technicians must remain independent if it wants to provide value. For example, he said: "If the forum is bought by Yahoo, people from Baidu (Enterprise Library Forum) will not contribute to the forum, and companies such as Sina (Enterprise Library Forum) will not recruit. I need a neutral and undisturbed platform to do this. I've thought about these things carefully. I think this thing has been done for decades, and there is no need to rush at this time. "

In 2005, Zeng Muyang returned to Changsha to concentrate on the forum and chose to leave Beijing. Zeng Muyang said with emotion: "The website has low geographical requirements, and the operating cost of building a forum in Beijing is too high, and the atmosphere is very impetuous. And there was too much work to do at that time, so I had to go back and do it slowly. I just want to do a good job of the website according to my own ability, give every member tangible benefits and save money for development.

Returning to Changsha for development, Zeng Muyang is even more "rigid without desire". He didn't put too much pressure on himself, and insisted on the development principle of "slow work and fine work", making him look like an "otaku". Although in the eyes of outsiders, he is a failed "northern drifter", but he does not agree with himself, but he is very satisfied with the present state. "I know what I am doing, and I am willing to enjoy the ordinary, because people will not regard you as a terrible person. This is what I like and pursue. On the Internet, I can be arrogant and behave like an ordinary person in real life. "
