Chateau Lafitte Hotel in the northern suburbs of Beijing
Che Qiuping is the vice president of Tencent's Interactive Entertainment Group (IEG). In recent months, he has presided over some of the actions of the "Glory of Kings League (KPL)" against Phoenix Immortal Pavilion.

It is said that Pony has a very good personal relationship with Mr. Jing of the Phoenix Group, and they can have dinner and drinks together. However, the boss's personal relationship is a personal relationship, and the competition among the companies below is competition.
Phoenix Group's recent series of actions in the entertainment field have aroused the bosses' departments above. At the monthly meeting, some people have already raised concerns about Phoenix Group's expansion in the entertainment field.
Phoenix Group's expansion method is exactly the same as that of LeTV in previous years. It moves high and strikes high, with sharp and swift movements, and spends money like water.
The Phoenix Group is currently undergoing a comprehensive transformation, aiming to compete with iQiyi, the Internet giant and the king of streaming media, Netflix. It also has a self-built film and television website from Phoenix Films to compete with HBO in the United States, as well as being spun off from iQiyi and inherited.
Its original business style is Qiyi TV.
You must know that the so-called entertainment is actually simply film and television, music, games, and sports event broadcasts.
The intrusion of Internet capital into the film and television industry relies on three major video websites: Youaiteng. Now, the Phoenix Group has launched three websites, and they operate independently of each other and have different management teams. This is a big deal for Tencent Video.
The pressure is huge! The pressure on Youku, which is affiliated with Alibaba, is also huge.
Moreover, the Phoenix Group also owns 30% of the shares of the short video station B, and controls Sina, Sina Weibo. It competes with Tencent in short videos, live broadcasts, and news. Just last week, Di belongs to the Phoenix Group’s Boss Jing
Tiangong Games announced its entry into mobile gaming.
At this point, Phoenix Group’s “pan-entertainment” strategy and Tencent’s cultural entertainment empire are already in full competition.
Tencent’s internal meaning is: Phoenix Group is not allowed to become the second NetEase (NetEase has direct competition with Tencent in the fields of games, music and other fields. Games are the cash cows of the Tencent empire), and Phoenix Group is not allowed to become the second NetEase.
ByteDance.
Killer applications such as ByteDance’s “Today’s Toutiao”, “Douyin”, and “Tiktok” have actually threatened Tencent’s status in the world.
Of course, that's what it is said. After he implemented the suppression policy, Mr. Jing asked his Ma Zi and one of the main players of the e-sports club, Mr. Zhu Yuzhu, to send him a message: "Don't be a worker and act like a master."
.There are some things you can’t afford to interfere with!”
This made him feel helpless. He didn't dare to say that he would work at Tencent for the rest of his life. If he really wanted to leave Tencent and be stared at by Boss Jing like this, his career would basically be ruined. But he could do it at Tencent.
The vice presidents of the six major business groups are not stupid either.
In today's meeting, he invited Ying Shulin, who has great influence in the field of e-sports competitions, as his guest. Jing Gao has shares in VSPN. He also had interactions with Ying Shulin at the Internet Conference in Wuzhen.
In the conference room on the second floor of the hotel, Zhu Yu and Deng Ran sat down respectively to discuss with Che Qiuping and Ying Shulin. Secretaries, assistants, and helpers were waiting outside the luxurious conference room.
Che Qiuping, who was forty-six years old, took a sip of tea and asked with a smile: "Master Zhu, what are the regulations of Boss Jing? I see that Tiangong Games announced last week that it will enter the mobile game field. This basically means that we have started a war.
."
His attitude is still very tough.
Ying Shulin was born in 1981 and is 37 years old this year, which is considered young among the billionaires. But he is just a figure promoted by venture capital, Huayi, Tencent and others.
Think about it, how could a person who dropped out of East China Normal University go to Standard Chartered Bank for a three-month internship and learn about investments? Is this a treatment that ordinary people can have?
He drank tea with a smile and looked at the famous beauty boss Deng Ran in the e-sports circle: she was 1.7 meters tall and her thick winter clothes covered her beautiful figure, but it could not hide her appearance and skin.
She is fair and tender, has a bright face, and wears exquisite glasses. She has the charm and maturity of a twenty-three-year-old girl, and also has a bit of workplace style after taking charge of an e-sports club. Very nice.
From this look, you can tell that she has been developed and nurtured by Mr. Jing until she is mature. It is estimated that Dong Xuanzi can do thirty-six tricks. Everyone in the industry knows that she is Mr. Jing’s concubine. Mr. Jing has a really good taste in picking women!
Zhu Yu is two years younger than Jing Gao. He is 27 years old this year. He is tall and thin, wearing expensive winter clothes, and his temperament is much calmer than before. After all, his family's catering group "Wei Chun Qiu" and the affordable hotel chain "Chun Qiu Inn" are both
It has developed very well. Its total assets are four to five billion.
As Shaodong, the only heir, although he hangs around in the capital every day, eating, drinking, picking up girls, playing cars, and giving advice on a small amount of money, he is known as the fourth young master in the capital, but he is still very confident in his heart, isn't he?
"Mr. Che, what you are talking about is business competition! Tencent can do whatever it wants, and I don't think Brother Jing will say anything to you, Mr. Ma. But the Phoenix Fairy Pavilion e-sports club is just a hobby of Brother Jing.
, if you don't abide by the rules now and use your power to suppress me, that's a personal grudge.
Think about it clearly. Is it true that Brother Jing is the only one who has personal hobbies? Not all the 16 big bosses at the Tencent General Office meeting do? It’s easy for Brother Jing to target him. Are you sure you want to get things done like this?
step?"
Che Qiuping is tough, Zhu Yu's attitude is even tougher!
Whose boss has no personal hobbies? As long as you have hobbies, you may be targeted by Brother Jing. Who wouldn't be disgusting? You, a small vice president, are you sure you want to do this to flatter the bosses above?
Che Qiuping was silent. He just didn't dare, so he had the negotiation for today's meeting.
There are rumors in the world that Mr. Jing is a very powerful and shady person. He often murders the management and strictly supervises internal work. He often makes decisions based on personal preferences rather than the amount of profit. Mr. Jing cannot be regarded as a rational person.
economic man.
So angering Jing is always a very threatening thing, at least he can't resist it.
Ying Shulin tried to smooth things over, adjusted his glasses, and said with a smile: "Master Zhu, it's not like that, it's not like that. Let's talk slowly, there will always be a solution, right?"
He is the actual controller of VSPN. Hero Interactive Entertainment is his foundation. It has been listed on the New Third Board and has many investors. He is mainly responsible for mobile game development. Its valuation is nearly 10 billion.
This valuation is meaningless. It’s just capital blowing bubbles. A mobile game company’s annual profits are only a few hundred million. If it is actually listed, how can it have such a high valuation? It’s not that Huayi is helping to blow bubbles. This bubble
Bubbles are really so valuable!
If you are so awesome, why have you failed to attack A-shares in recent years? Who dares to take responsibility for this big bubble?
Ying Shulin's real "power" in the e-sports circle comes from vspn. This company is deeply bound to Tencent and is the organizer of leagues for most of Tencent's games. For example, the LPL of League of Legends and the KPL of Honor of Kings.
Therefore, we have a close relationship with major e-sports clubs. This is inevitable. The current e-sports environment seems to be prosperous, but in fact it needs blood transfusions! And the owners of major e-sports clubs are the blood transfusions.
This is the trend brought about by Principal Wang!
It's a bit like Chinese football.
Therefore, as the organizer of the event, the relationship between vspn and the owners of the e-sports clubs is not an absolute strong one, but an interdependent relationship. If the sponsors don't play, then can you still run this league?
Are you still making money? Your energy will definitely be severely damaged during the season.
In 2016, Ying Shulin was invited to the Wuzhen Internet Conference. He was at the big bosses’ dinner parties. But he went downhill after that.
You know, who wouldn’t be optimistic about a mobile game company that was valued at tens of billions at its peak and was less than two years old? But then the tide of capital receded, and his underwear was exposed.
A mobile game manufacturer and an organizer of game events, after the valuation has dropped, it is obvious that it can no longer be compared with the Internet giants!
Zhu Yu's face changed, he would do this, and Ying Shulin complained: "Mr. Ying, Brother Jing's request is very simple, that is, not to target the Phoenix Fairy Pavilion Club in the LPL and KPL leagues. Brother Jing is spending money.
Looking for fun, not spending money to find pain."
Ying Shulin nodded: "That's right!"
He once met and chatted with Mr. Jing at the Wuzhen Internet Conference. Mr. Jing was always a very proud person and seemed not to be very good at socializing. It is said that after NetEase’s dinner that night, he and Ma Yun from Alibaba met outside Wuzhen.
After meeting in the villa, the conflict between the two became completely public. The two Internet giants then began to compete in multiple fields.
Recently, Mr. Jing seems to have received guidance from an expert and is specifically focusing on Alibaba's entertainment industry! Alibaba is known as the "entertainment paraquat", and as long as they acquire entertainment companies, they will basically kill them.
He came across information that Alibaba's corporate culture was too strong and would often assimilate its subsidiaries and subsidiary companies and then kill them.
Tencent can definitely afford to be at odds with the Phoenix Group. But Che Qiuping may not be able to endure it personally. Mr. Ma treats his own people quite well. He cashed in the equity shares given to his subordinates before going public. But who dares to say that he will work at Tencent for the rest of his life?
?
The mobility of private company executives is still very high.

Jing Gao was also at the Chateau Lafitte Hotel, but he did not participate in the negotiations between Zhu Yu and Deng Ran below. He was too lazy to care about such trivial matters.
Chateau Lafitte is a well-known hot spring hotel in Beijing. Not far to the north is the headquarters area of Phoenix Group. The building is rising from the ground.
However, he did not go to the hot springs this time. Instead, he was resting in the presidential suite upstairs, reading a book, accompanied by Yang Chun and Cen Yulu. There were also Yue Jia, the assistant that Deng Ran brought to the capital, and the assistants from Phoenix Immortal Pavilion.
The beautiful KPL league commentator raised by the club is light and smart.
Zhang Li met him last Saturday night and was passionately in love, working with him as an assistant.
Jing Gao put down the "Cai Gen Tan" in his hand, looked at the WeChat message sent by Xia Lingling, and replied: "Lingling, you are here. You have to wait for a while, I will go back to Yuntu Villa in the afternoon."
