9GAG has become one of most visited websites worldwide. Ray Chan, 9GAG’s CEO, told us about how he invented 9GAG (which was unintentionally born), with one original intention: to make others happy. It was firstly designed as a photo-sharing website with only few users.

As a Hongkong-based startup, Chan claimed that it wasn’t that hard for 9GAG to collect investments since there are tons of wealthy people in hongkong. Finding someone who understands about digital business was the real challenge. In this week’s DScussion, he shared about his journey in developing 9GAG, getting a mentor from Silicon Valley, his opinion on growth hacking and user experience, how to profit from content business, and 9GAG’s vision for the future.
