Spring passes and winter comes, year after year.
Yao Yuan was stationed at Tuanjie Lake and watched the peach blossoms in the park bloom five times and fail five more times. He couldn't help feeling that the world was so long, like a white horse passing by. The only thing that remained unchanged was the young lady who stood at her post near the park under the street lamp/
Aunt.
Now is the time when peach blossoms begin to bloom.
He stood by the window, drinking tea and looking at Tuanjie Lake. Behind him was the sound of Yin Yin typing papers, just as fast and rhythmic as last night.
I don’t know what she talked about with sister-in-law Bai Huiming, but she became more and more enthusiastic after returning from the zoo.
"Dong dong dong!"
A perfunctory knock on the door interrupted Yao Yuan's thoughts. Yu Jiajia pushed the door open and said, ""Crazy Stone" is scheduled for July!"
"Which one is there at the same time?"
""The Phantom of the Opera", "Superman Returns", "Mission: Impossible 3", "Dragon Tiger Gate"!"
"Are you having fun?"
"It's either April or the second half of the year. I'm thinking about it, and the summer slot is the summer slot. Although the competition is strong, our type is unique. I'm tired of eating big meals and want to try side dishes."
"What does China Film mean?"
"Just be a distributor and arrange more films in the first week."
"Okay, that's enough."
"Then I'll be busy!"
Yu Jiajia left in a rage.
"Isn't China Film pursuing a blockbuster strategy?" Yinyin raised her head and asked.
"Blockbusters are useless. "The Promise" kept claiming to be a candidate for the Olympics, but in the end it was not even nominated, and it was embarrassing to my grandma's house. Besides, this year there are "The Golden Armor" and "The Night Banquet" that are eyeing it, and China Film's blockbuster won
Wait until next year, just give "Stone" a favor, it's just a little effort."
"Oh, like this!"
Yinyin understood and lowered her head and continued chattering. Yao Yuan also returned to his seat and wandered around the Internet for a while. After thinking about it, he searched the school network and 5Q network on Baidu and looked at them respectively.
Why is it said that early Internet products were all benchmarked against the United States? When the United States became popular, only people in China made them?
Because only if it becomes popular in the United States can you attract international capital.
So why attract international capital?
Because in the early days of the Internet business in China, we could neither get loans nor invest in mainland capital, so we had to rely on international capital. Therefore, if a product is popular in China, it is not considered popular, only if it is popular in the United States.
Such is the impact of Facebook.
Yao Yuan used Yinyin's school email to register the school's 5Q. After checking it out, there was nothing new. It was basically a combination of Maiwo and Facebook.
But there are still some users who are not deserted.
Just like WeChat has become popular, but some still use Momo, and some still use Soul. Although they are the same type of products, changing platforms is equivalent to changing to a new social environment, and the people you meet are also new.
"..."
Yao Yuan stared at the computer screen, sorting out the timeline in his mind.
It seems that this year, Chen Yizhou acquired Xiaonei.com and merged with 5Q. Then in 2008, he received a huge amount of financing from SoftBank. In 2011, it was listed in the United States with a market value of US$7.4 billion. It was really famous for a while.
In 2009, Sina Weibo came out.
The question then arises, how should Maiwo Community transform to Weibo? In other words, in what way should the community be abandoned? Because in the Weibo era, traditional communities are destined to decline, and they have to earn the maximum value.
Yao Yuan was thinking when the phone rang.
"Mr. Yao, Mr. Shen is here!"
"Good to know!"
He straightened his clothes, rubbed Yin Yin's hair, and came to the reception room. There sat a man in his 40s, who looked like a white-faced scholar.
It is Shen Nanpeng, the founder of Sequoia Capital China Fund!
These Chinese agents of international capital have similar resumes. Almost all of them studied in the United States, then entered the financial circle, and finally settled in mainland China.
However, Shen Nanpeng's resume is even more impressive. He is the founder of Ctrip.com and Home Inns, and is a rich man himself.
Yao Yuan just finished meeting Xu Xin, and today he meets Shen Nanpeng again. Zhang Lei from Hillhouse Capital is also queuing up - now that the environment is better, investment institutions are coming waving banknotes, and they are not afraid of spending money, but they are afraid that they will not be able to spend it.
"Mr. Yao!"
"Nice to meet you, please come in person!"
"Liu Bei visited the thatched cottage three times to invite Zhuge Liang. If I can persuade you, I can come ten times."
Put on each other's hats and follow the topic.
Shen Nanpeng and Xu Xin followed the same procedure. Their first goal was wheat nests. After being rejected, they retreated and chose Maike Eslite. The investment was definitely committed, but the details needed to be discussed.
Let's make a good impression and socialize when we meet today.
After chatting for a long time, Shen Nanpeng was about to leave when he suddenly heard Yao Yuan say: "Besides Meike Eslite, I also have a project. Is Mr. Shen interested?"
"Appreciate further details."
"It's a film and television company under 99 Entertainment, called Xinli Media."
"Television Company?"
Shen Nanpeng had not yet delved deeply into the entertainment industry and used Huang Jiaozhu and Yang Tianbao to launder money. When he heard about film and television companies, he was not too cold and said: "I'm sorry, my current investment areas are the Internet, consumption, and medical care, and I have no interest in entering it." Film and television industry.”
"Then you don't think that the film and television industry also belongs to the consumer field?"
"Yes, but the scale is too small. If a movie has a box office of over 100 million, the film studio can only earn a few million. This..."
Shen Nanpeng smiled, obviously disdainful.
And he was indeed busy. He got up and was about to leave. Yao Yuan looked like he was about to leave and said calmly: "Xinli Media has shares in Zhou Yunfan and Wang Leilei!"
Um?
Shen Nanpeng paused in his steps.
Yao Yuan said the second sentence: "I want to acquire Jiahe!"
Yo!
Shen Nanpeng's eyes lit up.
Followed by the third sentence: "Jiahe has theater real estate!"
Hiss!
Shen Nanpeng had already sat down and took a sip from a pot of gouda.
"Elaborate!"
“I have wanted to acquire a Hong Kong company for a long time, and have been paying attention to the situation there, and finally chose Golden Harvest.
Hong Kong films are no longer good, and filmmakers have collectively moved north. Golden Harvest did not start filming again after filming "Superman" in 2003. It suffered losses for many years and was acquired many times. It was Li Ka-shing who bought a stake in the company and helped Golden Harvest.
But it’s just treating the symptoms rather than the root cause. If there are no profitable projects, it will be closed sooner or later.”
"..."
After hearing this, Shen Nanpeng was silent for a moment and asked, "How much real estate does Jiahe have?"
"There are a total of 33 movie theaters and 260 movie theaters in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia!"
After hearing this number, Shen Nanpeng almost agreed, but his ethics as an investor made him continue to ask: "Are you sure Jiahe will sell?"
"Li Ka-shing is currently the second largest shareholder of Jiahe, and Wang Leilei is the boss of TOM."
TOM Network is the industry of Li Cucumber.
Shen Nanpeng nodded, indicating that he understood, and asked the last question: "Since Hong Kong movies are no longer good, why are you buying a Hong Kong company?"
"Hong Kong films are not good, but the mainland film market is on the rise, and the policy dividends of co-productions between the two places can still be reaped for ten years. The film environment in Hong Kong is relaxed, and it is convenient to go overseas."
"Going to sea?"
"Connecting with international and Hollywood, but this is only offline."
Yao Yuan looked at Shen Nanpeng and said: "I am holding back on the development of Maili Video because I want to wait for the copyright era to come.
I have a large number of copyrights, and Jiahe also has the copyrights of thousands of movies, which can greatly enrich the film library. Maili Video will also go overseas in the future, so it has to create a shell that is easy for overseas acceptance. The mainland is sensitive, but Hong Kong is convenient. Jiahe will do it. Couldn’t be more suitable!”
