It has been more than half a year since Li Moyan resigned as the president of Wanli Travel and currently does not hold any position in the company.
However, she had only cashed out half of her shares in the company before completely withdrawing, so she was still a shareholder of the company. Strictly speaking, she was the second largest individual shareholder besides Lin Yi.
Coupled with her status as the co-founder of Wanli Travel, it is natural to be invited to participate in the listing ceremony.
"Didn't Han Xue come?"
"I didn't ask her to come. Han Xue is no longer a little secretary at Muse. She is my most important right-hand man. When I am on a business trip, she will be in charge of Shanghai for me. She originally wanted to accompany me, but I thought
It’s best not to leave both of you at the same time.”
After the senior sister left, Lin Yi had very little contact with her. Apart from public information, he also knew very little about Muse's inside story.
"It sounds like you're traveling a lot now?"
"Yes, because Muse's business and development direction are mainly overseas. I have already established an office in Singapore. The next step is North America and Europe."
Lin Yi seemed to be able to imagine her working status, because the senior sister always looked energetic.
He originally wanted to talk about something lighter, but found that he didn't know how to speak, so he had no choice but to continue talking along with what his senior sister said.
"I read public reports that Muse's current user growth momentum is very strong?"
The senior sister nodded in confirmation.
"After taking over Muse, we followed the agreement with the original management team and increased investment to resume the growth trend."
"Of course, I also spent a lot of money. To be honest, the high cost of acquiring customers from overseas users scares me. Fortunately, Goose Factory has given me a lot of support."
"Muse's domestic business is handled by Han Xue. Although it has grown smoothly under the promotion of Goose Factory, there is still a clear gap between Muse and Byte."
Lin Yi smiled and said: "Zhang Yiming is an opponent that cannot be underestimated."
The senior sister replied: "Don't underestimate it. Zhang Yiming's first-mover advantage in the country is too great. There may not be a good solution in this regard in a short time."
"However, we do not belittle ourselves. Our position in Europe and the United States is still unshakable."
"The first stop for overseas development of his TT is the East Asia region at home, but it is currently difficult to distinguish it under our sniper attack."
Lin Yi interfaced: "I know."
Gu Caiwei told him this because GIVE ME FIVE, led by Xiao Gu, is now Muse’s global image spokesperson.
This is a big title, but that's certainly not why Gu Caiwei attaches great importance to this endorsement.
She often paid attention to the promotion of Muse overseas, so Peng Yuchen had to pay attention to it, and then he made a surprising discovery.
With GIVE ME FIVE’s active release of works and Peng Yuchen’s professional operation, as well as Muse’s official targeted support, they have become the users with the most fans on Muse’s overseas version.
The European and American markets are too far away, and the aesthetics and culture are indeed very different, so I can't see the splash for a while.
But in the closer Asian region, especially the East Asian region where TT has spent a lot of effort to promote, GIVE ME FIVE is conquering cities and territories together with Muse, constantly expanding its influence outside the circle.
Phenomenal platform, and phenomenal artists.
Peng Yuchen said excitedly at the time that GIVE ME FIVE, especially Gu Caiwei herself, is probably the first female idol in mainland China to have a huge fan base across Asia.
If I use the description that fans brag about, she can be called "the woman who unified the aesthetics of all Asia".
Gu Caiwei's amazing overseas influence has not only brought her many honors, but has become the only one in the entertainment industry.
Moreover, this effect, which has been named the "Gu Caiwei phenomenon", has aroused widespread discussion among mainstream media and the general public, and everyone is talking about it.
After years of talking about popular culture going overseas, it finally comes to life.
Except for a handful of "dissidents" who consistently cynicized, most people believed this was an important milestone in cultural soft power.
Peng Yuchen originally allowed them to join the new platform Muse at Gu Caiwei's request. How could he have thought that it would be like this?
As the actual controller and manager of Muse, Li Moyan is certainly aware of this and can even be called the driving force behind the scenes.
In other words, mutual success.
Senior sister and Gu Caiwei, a very strange combination in Lin Yi's opinion, actually produced a wonderful chemical reaction in an unexpected place.
Even so, Lin Yi learned from Gu Caiwei that she had never met her senior sister when she participated in the Muse endorsement event.
This is definitely not a coincidence.
"Speaking of this, she kept telling me to let me thank senior sister on her behalf when I have the opportunity."
Of course the senior sister knew who Lin Yi was referring to.
"There is no need to say thank you. Although GIVE ME FIVE has benefited from Muse's traffic bonus, their existence has also helped us promote our promotion in East Asia. This is the reward they deserve."
"From the perspective of the endorsement itself, this can be regarded as a win-win cooperation that is worth every penny."
"If I must say it, it was actually GIVE ME FIVE who extended an olive branch to us first, which led to this cooperation, so I should be the one to thank her for her support."
Senior sister has always had a clear sense of grudges, but Lin Yi always felt that discussing this topic with her was not a wise choice.
"Has Muse encountered any obstacles in Europe and the United States?"
The senior sister didn't know if she noticed his change of topic, but she still replied: "We still encountered some obstacles, because Muse's popularity in Europe and the United States has never happened before."
"Although the regulatory authorities there have not yet taken action, Muse can already feel their concern, and the reason is nothing more than data security."
"In order to cope with this possible pressure, we need to prepare overseas offices as soon as possible and try our best to achieve local operations and local management to meet strict and even harsh regulatory requirements."
Senior sister is still on guard.
Lin Yi felt that the way they looked now was no different from when they discussed work together during Wanli Travel.
Of course, the reality is that everything is different.
Thinking of this, Lin Yi felt a little embarrassed and reminded him slightly unnaturally.
"Beware of Americans."
The United States is Muse's most important overseas market, and it is the most important foundation and prerequisite for Muse's further development.
This is not the first time Lin Yi has issued such a reminder, and each time it is more specific.
The senior sister understood what Lin Yi meant. He reminded her repeatedly when the acquisition was made. But seeing what happened this year, it is self-evident where this advice came from.
But she wasn't too worried.
There are also some short music video products that imitate Muse on the market, but they have not become popular.
At present, except for Byte's Zhang Yiming who has put some pressure on them domestically and in Asia, Muse has not encountered any comparable competitors in Europe and the United States.
