After the plane landed, Zhao Mingyang and Gu Man walked out of the airport. The head office arranged a commercial vehicle to pick them up.
As usual, Zhao Mingyang and the others sent a message to their circle of friends, telling people they knew that during the meeting, the phones were temporarily turned off and they could leave messages if they had anything to do.
I handed the phone to the person at the head office. The headquarters of Lingshi Palace is something that many people would hardly think of. It is not an office building, but a resort, somewhere in the imperial capital.
To put it simply, there are only a few office staff here, and one person is responsible for one subsidiary. For example, Li Manni is responsible for Empty Bottle Media.
It is said to be a resort, but in fact it is not open to the public at all. It is just a place where a group of them live and work.
There is a kindergarten here, and the children of the senior management have been together since they were young. After they reach elementary school, they are arranged to go to the same class. In addition to being partners, everyone has a relationship with the children's classmates and parents.
In addition to the kindergarten, there is also a senior care center, which is a place for high-level parents to gather together.
This is more like a neighborhood relationship in the 1970s, but they are collaborators. The designer is simply a genius. In order to prevent one party from betraying everyone, first the other party's family will object, and then they will be held accountable by the collective. These people have to
Parents and children have a close relationship, and most of them are old friends since they were little.
This model is actually very deformed, but it is indeed effective. The main reason is that everyone recognizes this model. There is another advantage here, that is, no one puts interests first, and everyone cares more about human touch.
This is very contradictory. This group of people are all profit-oriented capital, but they are restricted by human touch. This makes Zhao Mingyang have to admire the designer again. This must be a model designed by someone.
After Zhao Mingyang and Gu Man arrived, they came to an open-air courtyard with a stone table.
Li Manni was sitting at the stone table with a middle-aged man, laughing and chatting happily. Zhao Mingyang looked at the middle-aged man, about forty, wearing a pair of glasses and looking polite.
Zhao Mingyang and Gu Man walked to sit next to them. When they came in, they were both checked, mainly because they were afraid of eavesdropping equipment.
“Gu Man, he is indeed well-deserved, he is good-looking and capable, and he will be the mainstay of the company in the future.
Zhao Mingyang, you are young and promising, you have a bright future, you are a leader of the younger generation, the company needs young people like you in the future.
Let me introduce myself. My name is Qian Jun, the global CEO of Lingshi Palace Group. I used to be in charge of overseas business and recently came back to take over the domestic business. I am very happy to meet you two. The main reason why I am so anxious to make an appointment with you today is because
The group has a difficult task for you.
Your empty bottle media Shanghai branch is solely responsible for this task, and all other companies will cooperate with you. Do you have confidence?" Qian Jun poured a cup of tea for each of Zhao Mingyang and Gu Man and said.
Zhao Mingyang is not stupid. He has known this Qian Jun before. He has been cheating all the way in his life. He returned from a prestigious foreign school at the age of twenty-seven. He is a very young doctor. He is the same as the big boss from Arc Factory.
High IQ and highly educated elites.
However, he is good at behind-the-scenes management. The entire Lingshi Palace Group is basically very low-key. What they pursue is to invest in multiple fields. At least hundreds of projects are invested in a year. Of course, 70 to 80% of them are
They lose money, but as long as the remaining 20% can lead the industry, they will make a profit.
In fact, the operation of Lingshi Palace is the same as that of the stock god. The stock god's company is in a small corner of the United States. If it hadn't been exposed during the financial crisis, no one would have believed that a humble company could be so awesome.
This type of investment is purely venture capital, but Lingshi Palace is not just venture capital, but also focuses on resource integration. Finally, these investment industries, profitable and industry-leading industries are all included in the Lingshi Palace headquarters.
There are meetings and discussions here every day. The normal state of everyone is chatting, collision of ideas, and doing whatever comes to mind without hesitation. Everyone is responsible for an area. For example, Gu Man has not come here in his previous life, but is in the Lingshi Palace of the Imperial Capital.
In the group's company building, this is a gathering place for high-level executives.
"We have confidence, but what exactly we do, if we say yes now, but then it is not our area of expertise, then we will be sorry for the trust that Mr. Qian and Mr. Li have given us." Gu Man said with a smile.
At this time, Zhao Mingyang cannot speak, but Gu Man must speak, because Guan is Zhao Mingyang's boss, and people must know that Gu Man is the leader, and people cannot see that Zhao Mingyang dominates Gu Man. This is a very big taboo in the company.
.
But Qian Jun and Li Manni are not stupid. At most, they can see through it, otherwise they won't be fat. Gu Man also comes, considering that Gu Man is Zhao Mingyang's superior.
Li Manni picked up the tea cup and looked at Zhao Mingyang and said, "Are you confident?"
"You said yes, I must have it." Zhao Mingyang picked up the tea cup and said.
"Hahaha~ Qian Jun, look at this kid, he is so clever. He actually handed the ball to me. If it fails, then I will take the blame for him. Then I will bet that you have it. What happened yesterday?
The work is beautiful and exceeds our expectations. We highly recognize your ability?
To be honest, we have been observing you since Ku Yiyu's project, and you have not let us down.
But the company is currently struggling, so don’t underestimate your value. For Lingshi Palace, Empty Bottle Media is the sharpest spear and the hardest shield. It can be used both offensively and defensively, and can help the company operate to maximize profits.
For example, the company's hotels, the company's red wine, the company's liquor, the company's shopping malls, and the company's other industries all rely on the external publicity and operation of Empty Bottle Media.
Because of you Kongbo Media, the company dares to do something with confidence, but now the situation has changed. The company currently does not do games, e-commerce, etc., but they are afraid that the company will compete with them in these industries, and with Kong
The existence of Bottle Media is likely to severely damage their industry, so they took a preemptive strike. They also discovered your value, so they chose to block Bottle Media collectively.
Breaking the situation is a top priority for the company. We have also envisioned this day before. Therefore, we need an independent platform, a platform to retain young people. Young people will always be the main consumer group, but what kind of young people are the main consumer group?
, we have studied it over and over for so many years, and the answer is young people who have independent thinking and a certain level of cognition.
Do you know why this group of people is here? Zhao Mingyang." Li Manni looked at Zhao Mingyang and asked.
Gu Man was really confused, why this group of people?
Zhao Mingyang fell into deep thought. He knew what was going to happen next, but he had indeed considered this issue before. It was a cruel and realistic issue. He looked at Li Manni and said: "Cognition generally refers to being educated and having independent thinking.
For people who think in orientation, this question was answered by many people based on their academic background. In the early days, the answer was that of illiteracy.
But as the overall culture of the people improves, this point is not entirely correct. It does not mean that people with low academic qualifications do not have awareness. Many people do not continue to study for various reasons, but the group of people who study for further study generally have relatively high self-awareness.
Because the education you receive ultimately means you understand the world better and yourself better.
Most people who have little knowledge will be classified as trolls. Their knowledge is limited and they are more emotional in their output. If they can't tell others, they will be angry, verbally insult, or use hating behavior.
If you argue with these people, you are logically wrong. In other words, if you argue with them, the higher the cognition, the more likely they will be defeated, because there will be a large group of people with the same low cognition coming to criticize the high cognition.
The argument is that trolls with high cognition often choose silence in the end, because they know that they can't blend in and choose silence, and they can't defend and argue, so they choose silence. Cherish your precious time and stay away from this group of people.
For people with low cognition, for example, if you tell them not to watch piracy, respect copyright awareness, and respect the original creator, this is a mistake, because their cognition is free to watch piracy, and only fools pay to watch it.
The thinking seems absolutely correct.
But they ignored the biggest problem, the awareness of payment. The higher you reach a higher level, you cannot get around payment when you are looking for people to do things or communicate with people. There are many interpretations of payment here.
But that group of people may have blocked their own way in one go. For example, they are looking for help, but are reluctant to give up money, and want people to help them. In the end, no one is willing to help them.
Because they are pursuing immediate benefits rather than habits. For example, if they spend 10,000 yuan to find help from someone, and the job they do does not meet their expectations, they will definitely try to find ways to get the money back, and then make the helper unhappy, so they will
It's cool, the premise is that their road is gone and they can't get any closer.
Another example is that someone takes the initiative to help them, but they take it for granted and do not take the initiative to express gratitude in return. This again ruins the luck sent by God.
This talks about the issue of cognition. If a person has the ability to think independently and has the spirit of continuous improvement, most people with low academic qualifications will pursue one skill, such as making a craft better, and they may also go to
Read more books to improve yourself.
People with high academic qualifications will think about how to break through again and pursue higher advancement on the premise that they will do well in their professional fields.
This group of people have a common characteristic, which is that if they continue like this for a long time, they will continue to break through the shackles of class, and simply put, their lives will get better and better.
As for those keyboard warriors that everyone often calls, they express their emotions every day and have no other ideas at all. As long as they are uncomfortable and have different opinions from them, they can waste ten and a half days arguing with people until no one responds.
They will only stop when they fail. They will still feel that they have won and will get a sense of satisfaction, but this sense of satisfaction is worthless and meaningless and is a pure waste of time.
In the long run, this group of people will be different from their peers. Doing things emotionally every day will make them fall into a vicious circle from which they cannot escape. Even if the people around them are getting better and better, they may become worse off and continue to complain about their emotions.
Output, and very insistent on oneself, it is difficult to change.
Such users basically cannot bring much benefit to any company, mainly because they have little spending power. If the platform has these users, it will have excess activity at most, but the value of the platform will continue to decline in the long run.
The most obvious one is Q&A-related Bianhu. It originally had a high market value, but then in order to increase brand awareness and user volume, it recruited people everywhere. As a result, the market value shrank crazily because it lost its core value.
The original profit model of Bihu was paid Q&A, but eventually it became what everyone calls Bihu. In fact, it lost its core industry and advantages after being mixed up, and it will be replaced sooner or later, because it has lost its biggest core.
That is a quality user.
Although the number of users has increased, the information is messy, and all kinds of people can turn on payment. There are also a group of people who are trying every means to find pirated content in order to watch paid content for free. This has driven away original and high-quality creators from the platform, especially things like
When high-quality creators in the professional field leave Bihu, it proves that Bihu basically has no core.
In fact, some users don't need to fight for it. Users who have been prostitutes for free will pay once in a while, but they will definitely get the best value for their money. If they are not satisfied at all, they will do various things. In the end, they will still pay.
If you keep engaging in prostitution for free, you will not be able to make any contribution to the platform and products."
Qian Jun clapped his hands and said: "Yes, the platform is going to change this time, because the big data of other platforms cannot compare with ours. We have now discovered a very serious problem. Many big brands would rather not operate.
Advertising will be placed on some mixed platforms, because their user groups are different, and they will even spend tens of millions on some traditional fashion magazines.
In the future, like developed countries, more and more industries will pay for knowledge, such as music, film and television, because if high-quality content creators cannot make a living, then the entire market will have no good things for users, and high-end products may no longer be available.
It will be put on some platforms.
We are prepared to invest tens of billions to build a high-quality platform. First of all, speakers on this platform must answer 200 questions correctly before they can comment. These questions are not difficult, but they can prevent a group of people from entering and even struggle with these basic questions.
If you can't answer the question, there's basically no benefit in coming in.
The entire platform encourages original authors to come, provide generous treatment, and create high-quality content. It must be distinguished from other platforms. As for how to do it, I leave it to you, Zhao Mingyang, to do it.
You must do it well and make it to a point where you feel satisfied, is there any problem?"
Zhao Mingyang was confused. He was unwilling to do this project for himself because it was too time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Qian Jun saw what Zhao Mingyang was thinking. He looked at Zhao Mingyang and smiled and said, "What if I give you shares?"
"This is not a matter of shares, Mr. Qian. If you do this, I will put it bluntly. In the early stage, you can only continue to attract traffic, but it will also attract some miscellaneous people. I cannot bear the consequences, such as if I do something."
Qian Jun put down his tea cup and said: "I know what you are worried about. Since it is left to you, just go ahead and do it. Our core goal is to build a high-quality content library. In the future, IP must be king. We want to create a world similar to Hollywood."
DreamWorks produces a steady stream of high-quality content and produces high-value products, the kind that can sell for billions of dollars per IP.
Do you know why Goose Factory has always been popular? Because it is the only big IP player in China, not one of them. Their primary industry is not games and communications at all. They have the largest content library in the country, and one adaptation can cost billions.
We also need to learn this.
In this way, even if we are doing operations, we will still receive big customers, and the Lingshi Palace industry will comprehensively upgrade to the mid-to-high end and abandon the low-end market. This is also a test of the water. As for your worries about those miscellaneous people sneaking in, keep it under control.
If you want to change your account number, don’t hesitate.
Anything that causes dissatisfaction among the overall users of this platform will be eliminated. For example, if there are too many trolls, we will block them. What can those trolls do to us?
What we want is a content library and high-quality users. This is where we can continue to have an advantage over other companies in the future. Even if they deal with us now, it will be difficult for them in the future.’
Zhao Mingyang didn't answer, he was thinking about something.
