It’s past eight o’clock, and the Tsinghua campus is still noisy.
The press conference in the auditorium was over. The students left, but the guests had to leave one by one because they had to pass by Yao Yuan who was standing at the door.
“Extremely exciting and unforgettable!”
“Wish you success!”
Yao Yuan shook hands with everyone and received one or two polite or heartfelt farewell words. Lin Bin and several others came over and shook hands too, saying: "Thank you for the invitation, I have benefited a lot."
“I hope there will be a chance to work together!”
Yao Yuan once again implicitly extended the invitation, but the other party did not decline as before, but said: "We are all very concerned about the follow-up development of Meizu mobile phones."
He watched a few people leave and shook his head secretly. If this was the style of writing more than ten years ago, when his domineering spirit was revealed, heroes from all walks of life would bow down to him. It would not be as roundabout and troublesome as it is now...
Zhang Chaoyang walked over with a smile and said: "I set up an entertainment company, do you have a chance to communicate?"
"Entertainment?"
"Yes, I personally serve as the general manager. Now that the Internet's audio and video communication channels have taken shape, it is imperative to enter the entertainment industry. Your 99 Entertainment is very good."
"Then you are developing all-round development in film, television, music, and artist management?"
"Of course, I have signed five people. They are all new people. You may not know them."
Zhang Chaoyang mentioned five names: Cheng Yi, Yu Shasha, Zhou Qiqi, Wang Nan, and Wu Qing. Yao Yuan really didn't recognize them except Yu Shasha.
Yu Shasha later became the host of Sohu and often appeared in "Diaosi Men" - before Qiao Shan saw Technician No. 88, he never knew whether it was Jia Ling, Liu Yan, or Yu Shasha. We usually
Call this phenomenon: Schrödinger's technician.
Zhang Chaoyang came up with projects as he came up with them. Anyway, Yao Yuan had no impression of any projects produced by this entertainment company, so he thought he was just a flutter.
He dealt with it perfunctorily, but Zhang Chaoyang was very interested and wanted to cooperate with 99 Entertainment, so he simply asked Yu Jiajia to deal with it.
Lei Jun came over last.
With compassionate eyes and a kind smile, he was like a enlightened Bodhisattva who spoke Mandarin. He held Yao Yuan in his arms and refused to let go: "Thank you for coming to me, you inspired me a lot!"
"It's an exaggeration. We just felt it."
"I can feel it, the emotion is very strong, especially when the mobile phone came out, the atmosphere, wow..."
These big guys who make Internet and electronic products are more or less literary and artistic. Lei Jun said this with a bit of jealousy, and finally asked: "You said that the future is the mobile Internet era, do you think smartphones will be the development trend?"
"good."
"But domestic 3G has been noisy for several years, and it has not come down yet. I don't think it will be popularized soon."
"Fast and slow are relative. Suppose 3G is popularized in 2010, it will be really slow. But I will start planning a smartphone from now on, and it will be very fast by 2010."
"This kind of thinking is great, great!"
Lei Jun said two things in a row. He really wanted to talk to Yao Yuan all night long, and knowing that he would be very busy, he said: "It seems that I should study this aspect carefully. I won't interrupt. We will talk another day."
"Ok, bye!"
The outsiders had left, and the people gathered around. Yu Jiajia also dismissed Zhang Chaoyang, and went to have a dinner and drink together.
I found a hot pot restaurant nearby, and a group of guys with tens of millions, hundreds of millions, or billions came in and took over the restaurant directly. The bosses ate inside, and the drivers, assistants, bodyguards, etc. ate outside.
Yao Yuan felt deeply about the changes in the world.
I remember back then, when the Yucha team was off night shift, I brought dozens of beautiful girls to dinner, but now it's you who are the rotten ones, which is so ugly!
Except Yin Yin.
"What did you say to Zhang Chaoyang?"
"He wanted to invest in film and television dramas, but he didn't know what genre was good, so I randomly recommended a few to him. Sohu has a strong platform, so there may not be a chance of cooperation."
Yu Jiajia has always been the atmosphere group. After saying that, she poured a glass of wine and said: "Lao Bai, come and have a drink. We are so far apart that we never meet each other, so we finally sit down to eat together. You do whatever you want, I'll do it!"
Although the cup of 52-degree Wuliangye is small, it only takes about one or two, and it will be dry immediately.
As soon as she finished drinking, Liu Qiangdong came over and said: "You are so dazzling on the stage today, I want to toast you!"
He took a 2-tael cup and poured it down his throat as if drinking water.
"Don't dare, don't dare, it is indeed a rare opportunity to have dinner with you all, and I respect you..."
Drinking requires momentum. Most of the 99 industries are in the capital. Bai Yongxiang was alone in the south and could not lose, so he drank two drinks in a row. After he finished drinking, the scene relaxed.
After eating and drinking for a while, Dongzi asked: "I don't quite understand. How much does it cost to mass-produce mobile phones from scratch?"
"It's worth 100 million no matter what..."
"That is not bad."
“Dollars!”
Tsk!
Several people looked at Yao Yuan, and Yu Jiajia asked: "Does 99 Network have that much money?"
"Do you really want a loan?"
"No, no, the mall just needs to invest in Meizu, and you can invest the money you raise."
There was a lot of talk, and the 100 million US dollars was a bit stressful, but he didn't take it too seriously. In the end, Yao Yuandu said: "You can keep the money from the mall for yourself. I am going to invest all the profits from the Music card. If it is not enough, I will
Then think of a way to raise it.”
"any solution?"
"..."
Yao Yuan looked at the important ministers and said a piece of explosive news calmly: "I am ready to open up the community and accept investment."
Ho!
Bai Yongxiang was almost in tears. Although today's press conference was arranged, he never doubted Boss Yao's determination to make mobile phones. Who doesn't know that the community is his lifeblood, but he can say such a thing as accepting investment!
Yu Jiajia and others were also shocked and said one after another: "Are you crazy?"
“It’s not that bad, there are ways!”
"Although you led wisely before, I definitely don't agree with you this time!"
"Quiet, quiet, listen to me..."
Yao Yuan knocked on the table and said: "I made this decision firstly for the mobile phone, but there are other reasons."
It’s 2007, and it’s time to elaborate on the next stage of development strategy. He continued: “Last year, a new product appeared in the United States called Twitter.
It is similar in nature to a community, but one thing is that it can only post a maximum of 140 characters. I think these 140 characters will kill the traditional community.
This judgment is based on the belief that the future is the era of mobile networks and smartphones. If we believe that, we can simply deduce some development trends.
In the early days of the Internet, it was a toy for the elites. People generally had high quality and liked long speeches. They all used computers. The fixed Internet environment made it suitable for people to read these long speeches.
And you can all see the changes in recent years. Common people have stepped onto the stage, the content has become more and more popular and accessible, the age group has dropped, and even elementary school students can play "Audition"!"
