As the helmsman of the Tengda Empire, one of the two carriages in the Chinese Internet era, under the background of this era, there is a mark of the era that cannot be avoided no matter what.
Brother Xiao Ma is undoubtedly that small group of people who stand at the top of the times and lead the trend of the times. They have created a trillion-dollar empire in just a dozen years. Watch the ebb and flow of the times.
Rao is the source of all evil in the hearts of many players, but we have to admit that this cannot shake Xiao Ma's status at all. His height is, to a certain extent, enough to affect the course of history.
Of course, the premise is not to seek death (funny).
As a witness and even one of the founders of the Chinese Internet chronicle, in this magnificent history, there were naturally many heroes and countless talents.
Especially for Xiao Ma, what kind of genius has he not seen before? The talents within Tenda alone are undoubtedly enough to form a reinforced company.
After all, as an Internet company, it is naturally inseparable from the blessing of technical talents, and Tenda has never been stingy in its investment in talent introduction plans.
It can be said that he is the first person to use good steel on the blade. It is the people who continue to burn themselves to support Tengda's glory.
Every night, the brightly lit building at Tenda's headquarters is undoubtedly the best proof.
Therefore, for Xiao Ma, the so-called genius in the eyes of ordinary people has long been a common thing for him. The only difference...
It just depends on whether it can be used by him.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Dongsheng turned out to be an exception, really that kind of rare...
Although Xiao Ma is a well-informed man, he never thought that one day he would make a mistake.
He still vaguely remembered that at the Wuzhen dinner, the very young young man Ding Sanshi took with him was a completely ordinary person at first glance.
The only thing that left a slight impression on Brother Ma was perhaps his status as a so-called "fellow fellow".
After all, among the many social identities of Brother Xiao Ma, he also has the label of honorary president and honorary chairman of the Chaozhou Youth Association, which demonstrates his status as an outstanding representative of Chaoshan businessmen.
Therefore, for Xiao Ma, he will naturally have a little more impression of such an outstanding young junior, but this impression is nothing more than that.
If Zhou Dongsheng had disappeared from everyone, then this impression would probably be forgotten, but I didn't expect that in less than a year, Zhou Dongsheng would have already made such a big noise.
Even several investment projects that Tenda had taken a fancy to were actually related to it. At first, Xiao Ma didn't care and just thought it was a coincidence, until Dongsheng Investment appeared again and again...
Until now, unknowingly, it has been enough to attract Xiao Ma's attention and attention.
After all, even in front of Ma Ge, who is in charge of a trillion-dollar empire and is a regular in the top ten wealth lists, a tens of billions of people in their early twenties still have a weight that cannot be underestimated.
Not only is he young, but he also has time to accumulate wealth, and he also has a bargaining chip in his hand that would make even Tengda excited. With so many factors put together, the word "genius" is probably hard to sum it up.
At least, such talents no longer fall into the category of "can they be used by me?"
"I didn't expect that Lao Ding was so smart that he could dig out such good seeds. It seems that this guy will be proud again at this year's Wuzhen Dinner..."
Brother Xiao Ma looked through the report with great interest. Most of it contained information about Dongsheng Investment. The concise summary allowed Brother Xiao Ma to understand Dongsheng Investment at a glance.
Although it has not been established for a long time, even the starting capital is very limited. After all, this is a private investment institution completely owned by Zhou Dongsheng.
Perhaps it is this that determines that this investment institution can only adopt an investment strategy of focusing on the more expensive but not the more expensive, and it is completely dominated by Zhou Dongsheng's personal will.
Then, Zhou Dongsheng started his personal show, and he came into contact with Huang Zheng and Cai Haoyu from the beginning. At that time, Xunmeng Technology was just an ordinary company whose main business was krypton gold games.
As for Mihayo, it is just a small workshop with a popular mobile game and annual revenue of over 100 million.
Precisely because of its small scale, it has a better chance of entering the game and can obtain admission tickets at a lower cost. Of course, this also means... super high risks!
The greater the risk, the higher the return, and at the same time, the higher the return, the greater the risk. This investment law is obviously an iron law that cannot be shaken.
But facts have proven that Dongsheng Investment’s first two investments have undoubtedly made a lot of money, whether in terms of return on investment or cycle.
Only a year and a half later, the former has completed financing of hundreds of millions of dollars, and the chips in Zhou Dongsheng's hands have more than doubled.
The latter has already made another hit mobile game with a monthly revenue of over 100 million. From annual revenue of over 100 million to monthly revenue of over 100 million, the entire company has completed a tenfold growth.
This ten-fold increase in performance is reflected in the change in valuation, and is it more than ten-fold?
Imagine that if a listed company on the stock market discloses a financial report with a tenfold increase in performance, then the stock price... I am afraid it will shoot up like a rocket.
Even so, these two investments can only be regarded as a small test, and there are traces to follow. However, the subsequent PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and shared bicycles are a bit "unreasonable".
I don’t know if it was because he invested in two “game companies” one after another that he had a soft spot for game companies. He was no longer satisfied with investing in game companies, but instead took the lead in establishing a game company by himself.
And he hired a game planner with a wild background, and after integrating the resources in his hands, he accidentally made a phenomenon-level game that became popular around the world...
This kind of thing, even in Xiao Ma's opinion, is a bit unbelievable. After all, Tenda only has one game like this that is full of possibilities.
And it was thanks to Tengda's deep pockets that it was possible to find such a hidden gem after casting a wide net for investment.
Zhou Dongsheng's side is good, he will hit with one hit!
Regardless of luck or means, in Xiao Ma's view, Zhou Dongsheng's success is not an accident, but an inevitable result.
After all, this ability to integrate resources, even a big boss like Lao Ding is included, is enough to fully guarantee the lower limit of this game company.
As for the upper limit, no one can say for sure. It can only be decided by the market, and facts have proven everything.
Today, the value of such a game company alone far exceeds US$1 billion, and as the game "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" continues to become popular around the world, this value continues to grow.
As the largest shareholder, Zhou Dongsheng is naturally the biggest beneficiary.
The income from this investment alone is enough to make Zhou Dongsheng's title as a "billionaire" a definite fact. It can be said that there is no water at all.
Needless to say, as for shared bicycles, after the stock market crash, the entire investment market was in a downturn, and hot money in the market tended to invest in relatively safe industries such as real estate.
At that time, the live broadcast platform was at its peak and attracted the attention of most capital.
To a certain extent, Zhou Dongsheng completed the primitive accumulation of capital by relying on the live broadcast economy, but he has no intention of continuing to invest in the live broadcast field.
He resolutely dispersed the accumulated capital into other fields. This courage and decisiveness in decision-making are really unimaginable for a young man in his early twenties.
"Do you feel that the live broadcast market has lost its rationality and there are a lot of bubbles? Just like being able to escape from the stock market in 15 years, this sense and decisiveness..."
"Sure enough, I made a mistake. In this aspect, I am not as good as Lao Ding!" Brother Ma sighed, but in his heart he couldn't help but glance at Zhou Dongsheng.
After all, Brother Ma is extremely certain that his judgment is correct. Even if it is not 100%, it is still the truth. Without this confidence, he would not be able to sit in this position.
The concept of sharing economy has been around for a long time and has already made a lot of noise in overseas markets, and Didi is undoubtedly the most successful representative of localizing this concept.
But shared bicycles are the real promoters of this concept to the public. Nowadays, shared bicycles all over the country are enough to give the general public a personal experience of this concept.
However, when this business was still in its infancy, Dongsheng Investment had already won these two projects. The little yellow car that has become famous on the campus of Peking University can be regarded as a trace...
However, the Mobike project has not even produced a finished bicycle. It can be said that it is still in the incubation stage.
It can be said that Zhou Dongsheng's role is no less than that of an angel investor, and he even does venture capital work together, indirectly providing a lot of help to these two companies.
Including Mobike, at the press conference held in Shanghai, Zhou Dongsheng did not hesitate to use [Papi Jiang], a phenomenal Internet celebrity, as a promoter. It can be said that he personally set the stage for it...
In this way, Mobike has accumulated a lot of experience and is able to keep pace with the little yellow bikes as a latecomer.
Seeing that 2016 is coming to an end, the two new favorites of the Internet in 2016 have already been finalized.
The first is the Internet celebrity economy led by live broadcasting, and the second is the sharing economy led by shared bicycles.
However, behind these two new favorites, there is an active shadow of Dongsheng Investment. He must have a place among the ranks of vested interests.
Can this still be called a coincidence?
At least Mr. Ma is not so naive. Every project accurately targets the pulse of the times and gets high returns from it. At the same time, he advances and retreats in a measured way. When he reaches a certain level of profit, he decisively exits without any regrets.
Although this report only briefly and comprehensively summarizes Dongsheng Investment’s efforts from the perspective of hindsight, and gives a rough introduction.
But after looking at it, Brother Xiao Ma can easily come to a conclusion:
This boy is so terrifying!
Ahem, it should be said that Zhou Dongsheng is a piece of material destined to become a big thing. How can the golden scales be just a thing in the pond? They will turn into dragons when encountering storms.
Brother Xiao Ma closed the report, and his interest in Zhou Dongsheng became more and more intense.
Although Dongsheng Investment has other projects in its hands, it is not important to Xiao Ma, after all, he has come to his own conclusion.
Even if Zhou Dongsheng starts to decline after this, it doesn't matter. The current results alone are enough to explain everything.
On the contrary, if Zhou Dongsheng falls a few times, it will undoubtedly be more in line with Brother Ma's expectations. In this case, there may be an opportunity to "buy the bottom"...
But even if you don't buy the bottom, entering the market at a high position now is definitely a good deal.
Brother Ma couldn't help but ponder for a moment, and then muttered, "I remember that I seemed to have left this guy's contact information..."
"I wonder if if I contact him personally, it will give me face?"
Brother Xiao Ma thought with great interest, especially now that Zhou Dongsheng has completed the integration of his own resources and officially established Dongsheng Group.
If you can directly become a shareholder of Dongsheng Group in one step, it will undoubtedly be a once and for all thing.
Of course, the price that needs to be paid must also be an astronomical figure.
But that also depends on the person.
Xiaoma Ge Yun Danfeng smiled softly, revealing an aura of a normal person, then took out his personal phone, rummaged through it and dialed Zhou Dongsheng's number.
This number was called for the first time since the call was entered.
…………
Magic City, in the office of the chairman of Dongsheng Group.
Old Zhou Dongsheng had his feet raised on the desk, listening leisurely and contentedly to the group affairs being sorted out by his subordinates.
Although he is a new boss, he still needs to have a basic understanding of the group, and after this period of accumulation, Zhou Dongsheng has already become comfortable with it.
Although the company structure has changed, it is more worry-free for me. Anyway, professional things are left to professional people, and the people below perform their duties, and the group can operate completely autonomously.
There are few things that really need Zhou Dongsheng to worry about. After all, everyone is thinking about making achievements now. If you have to trouble the chairman to make decisions on any big things...
It's better to pack up and leave.
Zhou Dongsheng finally felt at ease, but as 2016 comes to an end, there are still many projects that have been laid for a year and are just waiting to explode at the end of the year.
Whether it's the Wuzhen dinner party, the Golden Second Award, or the e-commerce war...
But they all came together at the end of the year, which made Zhou Dongsheng full of expectations in his spare time.
On the eighteenth day of that year, at the Wuzhen dinner party, I was standing there...
But this time, it was obviously different. Zhou Dongsheng suddenly changed and was already qualified to officially participate in the meeting, and he also had the opportunity to serve at the table.
Young people no longer need to rely on Ding Sanshi to have the opportunity to see the world. Although Zhou Dongsheng sat at the children's table...
But the meaning has changed. As for the Golden Second Award, after another year of accumulation, Douyin is no longer what it used to be. At the same time, last year’s winners [Papi Jiang] and [Muzi Qi], as well as many other winners, have become more successful.
This year they have all proven the gold content of this award, which also makes this year's award ceremony full of suspense and gimmicks.
There is no doubt that the Golden Second Award, as the first competitor in the short video field, already has the potential to become a benchmark in the industry.
As for the e-commerce war, it may be the least relevant thing to Zhou Dongsheng, but it doesn't matter now, which doesn't mean it won't matter in the future.
The layout of live streaming has begun with this charity action...
Just as Zhou Dongsheng was thinking about the future, the ringing of the phone brought his thoughts back to reality.
When he saw the number on the caller ID, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but say, "Oh shit."
