The Internet wave has been brewing violently, but this time Tao Zhiming no longer has to worry.

The Sanyou Foundation has gained a stable foothold, the Heisei era has officially entered a stable period, and otaku culture is already brewing.

A Gwa, a financial defense battle for Hong Kong Island, Tao Zhiming, a blue force, has brought two far-reaching exercises to the island, and has also established true mutual trust and tacit understanding between himself and the bosses of the hub.

Now, another exercise on an invisible level begins that will last for many more years.

The erosion of ideas brought about by media and cultural products through new forms of methods.

In the United States, Tao Zhiming also spent a special honeymoon with another person whom he had not seen for a long time.

"You have become a figure denounced by many people, a financial devil." Monica Bellucci, who has reached middle age, has become more charming, and her deep eyes look at Tao Zhiming, who is already a influential figure in the world.

"Then what do you think?" Tao Zhiming disapprovingly threw his arms around and sunbathed in the early winter.

"I don't see it very much, but I feel that the world is just like that." The literary artist said in literary terms, "Human nature is greedy, how can you be an exception?"

Tao Zhiming looked at her profile.

Over the years, from an actress to a female director, Monica has always wanted to express her observations and thinking about human nature through her works.

This kind of work, in addition to the attraction and selling point of "beautiful thing" that she always brings when she appears on the screen, the work itself is destined to be just a highbrow literary film. Winning some awards and gaining some reputation does not allow her to have her own thoughts.

Inspires a resonant sense of satisfaction.

To put it bluntly, how much real and profound understanding can she have of the world? Without enough talented perspective and thinking, and without rich accumulation, she cannot produce a truly masterpiece.

Tao Zhiming suddenly said: "Do you want to do something that can truly go down in history and inspire people to think about human nature to the greatest extent?"

Monica turned to look at him curiously: "What's the matter?"

Tao Zhiming smiled, sat up and walked to the terrace, enjoying the wind blowing in the mountainside villa in Hollywood.

Holding the beer bottle, he said slowly: "I am going to open a documentary channel under Bravo Media, just like the BBC has always done."

"Documentary?" Monica was a little curious, "A documentary that will go down in history? And it also inspires people to think about human nature to the greatest extent?"

"The main thing is the scale, span, and depth." Tao Zhiming looked at her, paused and said seriously, "You can understand it as a history recorded with real images and sounds starting from the new millennium."

Monica still didn't understand, but what Tao Zhiming said next immediately shocked her: "At least 5 billion yuan of production cost is invested every year, covering most countries and most classes in the world. If it is 20 years

How many people's real lives can be recorded across the span? What kind of special new history book of mankind will this be in 20 years?"

If the span is 20 years, wouldn’t it be 100 billion yuan?

Monica looked at him blankly: "Are you serious?"

"Of course." Tao Zhiming's eyes were deep, "If you find it interesting, I want you to do it."

"...The kind without a script?"

"No." The corner of Tao Zhiming's mouth turned up, "Only the selection of materials. Since it is a new form of history book, of course it must cover as many subjects as possible. I don't do nature, I don't do technology, I only do contemporary humanities. It's different.

places, and the lives of people from different classes. For example, if I had been prepared, how many people's lives would have been changed by this incident of me being called a devil? If many stories were recorded, in this process, there would be

How much of human nature is worth thinking about?”

Monica's eyes flashed, as if she was moved by the grand narrative he described.

Tao Zhiming raised the beer bottle: "Respect the world! A 'big man' like me is destined to change the fate of many people. You can record the fate of the world. There is no director, no script, and no real actors. 20 years, 1,000

100 million yuan, leaving behind an epic of the times."

"...Why spend so much money to do such a thing?"

Tao Zhiming laughed: "Just think that I am tired of making money, and start thinking about how to spend money in a fun way."

After so many years, Monica has always felt that he is a mysterious man with a depth of thought that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, and he always has so many wild ideas.

Now, has he come up with another idea?

"How about it? Miss Monica." Tao Zhiming invited again, "Do you want to participate in this unprecedented special documentary? The New Millennium Human Epic Project."

"...Sounds very interesting, but I don't have a clue yet."

"There are many themes. It records major events of competition or cooperation between countries, records the rise and fall of a city, records a person's transition from youth to middle age, records a company's creation to prosperity or destruction, records the joys and sorrows of a family."

Tao Zhiming said casually, "Everything is good, but in the end they are all spliced ​​together to form a scene of an era at a certain moment. It may not be comprehensive, but it takes into account both the dimensions of time and space."

He looked at Monica and stretched out her hand: "It's very romantic, isn't it? The world is dancing like this, heading towards a new future. Whether it is a cliff, an abyss or a paradise, when you reach a certain step, you will have enough material to look back on. This is

The difficulty lies in how to make good use of so much money and make our records more comprehensive as much as possible."

Monica kept up with his dance steps and listened to him continue: "Just like the huge changes that neon has undergone in the past ten years, just like the financial tsunami that happened in Asia last year and this year, just like the life of Europeans after the collapse of Hongsu

If there are enough recorded materials, we can find many interesting clues in the future. Where will the humanity of all people in the world lead the world in the end? We don’t know, but this is a real epic.

.”

"...Bravo!" Monica was able to murmur to herself, "This is indeed... very romantic."

"You want to do it?" Tao Zhiming's words had profound meaning.

"...Which director can refuse an investment of 100 billion yuan? It is still a unique work." Monica's red lips spread, "But I will be very tired."

"No, you will be crowned queen in a brand new field." Tao Zhiming said in her ears, "Let the epics of the times judge those of us who change the world. Whether we are heroes or devils will depend on the passage of time.

Only through trial can we be convicted, right?"

…

The anticipation for the new millennium has indeed begun to spread around the world.

In 1000 AD, the world was still divided into major civilization regions with minimal exchanges, and many places were not discovered by major dynasties.

The Liao and Song Dynasties were in confrontation in the east, and the Holy Rome and Byzantium were competing in the west.

But standing on the eve of the year 2000, the world has been very closely connected. "Globalization" and "global village" have become very popular terms. Overall peace has lasted for more than 50 years. Computers have set off a new round of

technological revolution.

Entering the Xia Kingdom at the turn of the century, as college graduates were no longer assigned, young people were looking for more paths.

Studying abroad and working abroad no longer have as many restrictions as in the past.

The New Dongfeng Training School, which has been established for 6 years starting from making up classes on the campus of Yantai University, has ushered in a new chapter. They have a teaching building of their own, and their core selling point is to go abroad for language training. They are following the trend of the times.

Officially entering a new stage.

Starting from January, the government's Internet access project was officially launched. At the same time, the dominant telecommunications company also began to split up.

There are always so many people who sense the opportunities of the times.

The "fathers" of the Internet era are now officially embarking on a journey.

Portals, e-commerce, social networking, games, online travel...a group of well-known Internet companies that will cover almost all Internet product forms in the next 20 years were born at this point in time.

Traditional industries, facing the opportunities of the WTO era, are also facing an almost crazy development period.

And a net that has been laid out long ago is waiting quietly on Xiang Island.

The first one to get into this network was Xinchao.com, which was only officially established for 2 months and has already been blown to the sky by the wind of the times.

This is the first IT company in the Mainland to introduce venture capital. Having tasted the benefits, they have clearly set their sights on the capital operation path of going public.

The best partner in front of them is naturally a Xia native who has strong influence and strength in Xiangdao, Neon, and the United States. He is also a Xia native who started to seriously engage in the industry because of the poor reputation.

A high-rise building in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong Island, is now named Tao.

After the turmoil last year, this property originally belonged to the Li family. Because the Li family needed a large amount of money to "take care of their funeral affairs," Tao Zhiming "lent a helping hand" and sold it to the Dow Group at a "fair" price.

It is indeed fair. After all, since the financial tsunami the year before last year, Hong Kong's property market has stopped growing for so many years and has also fallen sharply.

"Dr. Tao!" Wang Dong from Xinchao.com shook hands with him excitedly, "I have long admired your name! You have always been the idol of our Xia entrepreneurs!"

Tao Zhiming smiled and shook hands with humility: "Thank you. Last year, we carried out financial operations as before. Unexpectedly, someone acted out of common sense, which caused a setback and ruined our reputation."

"Where, where..." Wang Dong didn't know whether he should go in depth, and the topic immediately changed, "Our Xinchao.com is now the largest Xia people portal in the world. Domestic information is still blocked, and we still have no understanding of internationally accepted practices.

We need to study and research more. For the development of Xinchao.com, we also need to consult Director Tao more."

"Xinchao.com is indeed good." Tao Zhiming smiled half-heartedly, "It's just that my current reputation in the mainland is not very good. Mr. Wang hopes to introduce us for a second round of investment. Aren't you afraid of being criticized?"

"This Director Tao is overthinking." Wang Dong replied firmly, "The policy of economic development will not waver. The Internet is a high-tech industry, which is also strongly supported by the country. Regarding our introduction of foreign investment and rapid development abroad, the leaders

I also strongly support it. Mr. Tao, just looking at the popularity of the Internet sector in Nasdaq, investing in Xinchao.com is definitely a grand event that we all share, creating history and having great prospects."

He paused and then said firmly: "We want to be the first Xiaguo Internet company listed in the United States!"

Tao Zhiming looked at them with great interest and surprise, and then praised: "It's amazing, your thinking is very clear! It has only been officially established for more than 2 months, are you already preparing for the listing?"

"Of course! We are the first Internet company in the Mainland to introduce venture capital, and our management concepts can keep up." Wang Dong did not plan to do it all at once, and sincerely invited, "Although Xinchao.com has only been officially established for more than 2 years,

However, there has been a foundation of 6 years before. If Director Tao can arrange the time, I also hope that Director Tao can go to Yanjing to see what we are doing and give some advice."

"You don't need to look at it." Tao Zhiming seemed to be very satisfied with their enthusiasm, "You are two years younger than me, just call me Brother Tao. After contacting Lao Zhao, he has already done a background check. I have read it.

The potential is indeed great. How much do you want to raise this time?”

Wang Dong's heart suddenly moved, and then he tentatively expressed his previous thoughts: "Our risk round was completed based on the pre-money valuation of 8.5 million yuan, and the post-money valuation was 15 million yuan. In this round,

Our pre-money valuation is 45 million yuan, and we want to raise 15 million yuan. We plan to promote the third round of financing within this year, and the goal is to go public next year!"

Tao Zhiming looked at him meaningfully: "If we plan to go public next year, we will indeed start operations this year."
