It snowed heavily for several days, and the sky and the earth were covered with a layer of white snow. Suddenly it cleared up one day, and the quiet and peaceful snow scene was dazzling.
Zhou Dongsheng stood in the courtyard and looked far into the distance, feeling extremely relaxed and happy. However, the snow had stopped and it was almost the time for Zhou Dongsheng to leave.
After all, after today's work, the turmoil on the Internet has been rising again and again. Two videos of [Mu Ziqi] and Zhou Dongsheng have sparked heated discussions across the entire Internet and attracted a lot of attention.
Taking this opportunity, Yang Luyu also successfully made a name for himself in advance for the second Golden Second Award, which undoubtedly means that the preparations for the Golden Second Award have entered the final critical stage.
While the second Golden Second Awards successfully attracted a lot of attention from the entire network, it also meant that this award ceremony became a big traffic cake, which was particularly delicious.
Especially for Wenxue Network, which has just completed its Series B financing and received a cash flow of US$360 million, this is a time of great wealth.
It is also a critical moment when it is urgent to turn this financing into development, and this second Golden Second Award has obviously become the most important thing at the moment.
Therefore, for Yang Luyu, the helmsman, there is nothing he can do at the moment. He has fully mobilized all the resources he can mobilize and tried his best to create the golden sign of the Golden Second Award.
The most intuitive manifestation is that in the past few days, Yang Luyu has frequently called Zhou Dongsheng, eager to meet with him as a strategic investor.
Not only Yang Luyu couldn't sit still, but Huang Zheng was also very interested in the cooperation. At least the exclusive sponsorship of the Golden Second Award ceremony, Huang Zheng had regarded it as his own.
.
Therefore, Huang Zheng naturally called Zhou Dongsheng. If the two families really wanted to join forces, it would be impossible to bypass Zhou Dongsheng, a key figure.
And seeing that the time has gradually matured, it is naturally time for Zhou Dongsheng to "come out".
When he thought that he had taken another solid step towards forming the head, Zhou Dongsheng was inevitably a little excited and had the urge to implement it.
Therefore, Zhou Dongsheng was naturally unable to sit still, and Li Jiajia naturally knew it well as they were under the same roof.
"Boss, are you leaving?" Li Jiajia came and stood beside him.
"Yes, Fusheng has half a day to steal. It would be rude to steal more." Zhou Dongsheng joked casually, making Li Jiajia chuckle.
"But one month is fleeting. Let's meet again at the Golden Second Awards." Zhou Dongsheng did not hesitate, and waved his sleeves very freely, not intending to take away half of the snowflakes.
As for what he took away, you can probably get a glimpse of it from Li Jiajia's eager look.
"Well done, boss. I hope I can have another chance to go out on the Bund with my boss at night." Li Jiajia smiled playfully and pointed out something.
Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but smile knowingly. Everything about last year's day was still vivid in his mind. Then he nodded, said no more, and left the small courtyard at the earliest opportunity.
Li Jiafeng was already waiting outside the small courtyard, and he would be responsible for taking Zhou Dongsheng to the airport. Although the thigh was too thick for him to hold, it was good to be able to trim the hair on his leg.
This Wrangler that I can't put down is undoubtedly the best proof.
Zhou Dongsheng didn't say anything. After arriving at the airport, he patted Li Jiafeng on the shoulder and said sincerely, "Take good care of your sister and tell me if you need anything."
"Okay, boss, don't worry, if my sister loses a piece of her skin, I'm the only one you have to ask about!" Li Jiafeng was shocked and his chest beat loudly.
Zhou Dongsheng smiled knowingly, waved and walked straight to the airport.
………
The plane took off, the three-hour flight time flew by, and the plane had landed at the Shanghai Airport.
Walking through the priority lane, Zhou Dongsheng got off the plane in a dusty state. Now he was considered a quite a celebrity, and being recognized was already a common occurrence.
Zhou Dongsheng had long been accustomed to this, and he even muttered to himself, "Why didn't you receive any small card or something like that?"
Then he couldn't help but smile, shook his head and put the idea behind him. As soon as he walked out of the airport, he saw Li Jiana, who stood out from the crowd, already standing there waiting, with two tall and straight figures standing next to her. man.
After seeing Zhou Dongsheng for the first time, he directly greeted him.
"Chairman, according to your instructions, I selected these two from several security companies and asked the chairman to take a look."
The two of them had firm eyes. One was a little older and had a weather-beaten face full of stories, while the other was younger and had a fresh, cropped hair that revealed a bit of vigor.
The first impression of the combination of an old man and a young man made Zhou Dongsheng feel at ease and very friendly.
Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but nodded, "It's not convenient here, let's talk about it in the car."
After all, whether it is Zhou Dongsheng or Li Jiana, they are very eye-catching existences in their own right. Coupled with the two bodyguards who look extraordinary at first glance, they are enough to attract the attention of most passers-by.
I don't know how many people secretly took out their mobile phones to take pictures, but Zhou Dongsheng didn't care about this, so he wouldn't go up and beat them up (funny).
But there were so many people and noisy places that it really wasn’t the right place to talk, so we headed to the parking lot at the lead.
At the same time, the two of them didn't say a word. They were separated on both sides and looked like horns to protect Zhou Dongsheng in the middle. Their professionalism was clearly demonstrated.
When they came to the parking lot, they stood next to a black business car. After letting Zhou Dongsheng and Li Jiana get in the car, they got in. One person drove and the other sat in the passenger seat.
Zhou Dongsheng sat in the back seat, adjusted to a comfortable position, and then said lazily, "Would you like to introduce yourself?"
"Hello, Chairman, my name is Qin Yi. I have been retired for ten years and have been working in security at Black Shield Security..." the older man said with a smile.
"This is Zhang Ze. He is the best apprentice I have had in the past ten years. He is retired from a special forces unit. He has outstanding performance in all abilities. He is one of the best bodyguards in Black Shield..."
"Hello, Chairman." Zhang Ze nodded, with a serious and unsmiling expression that barely had the word "ace" written on his face.
Zhou Dongsheng nodded with satisfaction, and finally understood the origin of the intimacy. Compared with pure security personnel, being a soldier of the people always makes people more trustworthy.
"Just call me boss from now on. Work hard and I won't treat the people around me badly. Whether you can stay or not depends on your ability." Zhou Dongsheng said calmly.
The two looked at each other, nodded, and said solemnly: "Yes! Boss!"
Then they stopped talking, started the car, and started looking at their noses and noses to see what they should see and what they shouldn't see. They had received professional training, so they were naturally very knowledgeable about this.
Of course, Zhou Dongsheng would not put himself in danger and would test the two bodyguards from the very beginning. After all, Zhou Dongsheng was not used to the presence of outsiders.
Taking this opportunity, Li Jiana also reported on her recent work results one by one, including but not limited to the improvement of the group's supervision department and the signing of a cooperative relationship with Black Shield Security.
After all, it is not only Zhou Dongsheng who needs this, but there will also be such needs within the group in the future, especially the Internet celebrity business of Dongsheng Media, which will inevitably require a professional security team to respond.
It has always been Zhou Dongsheng's code of conduct to leave professional matters to professionals, so he left it to Li Jiana early on, and now it seems to have achieved remarkable results.
"Chairman, there is also an invitation letter for the 3rd Wuzhen Internet Conference. The Wuzhen Summit will be held the day after tomorrow..." Li Jiana said with a smile on her face.
Different from last year's "sitting in" on the big boss's thigh, this year Zhou Dongsheng is obviously qualified to be officially invited.
Although it is an Internet conference, investors who play an important role in the Internet have never been absent from previous Wuzhen summits.
Although Zhou Dongsheng's qualifications are still relatively young, his achievements cannot stand up to his impressive achievements, especially shared bicycles, which are destined to become the new darling of the Internet at this conference. They are inseparable from Zhou Dongsheng.
Therefore, not only Zhou Dongsheng was among the invited people, but newcomers to the Internet including Dai Wei and Hu Weiwei were also on the invited list.
After all, the theme of replacing the old with the new is the focus of every Wuzhen Summit. After all, no one wants to see the Internet industry become a stagnant water.
Hearing this, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but feel shocked. He had been looking forward to this for a long time.
If the recent Double Eleven Shopping Carnival was a major annual test in the e-commerce field, then the Wuzhen Summit is undoubtedly a major test in the Internet industry.
For Zhou Dongsheng personally, it may also be an opportunity to test the results.
"I understand. Where are Huang Zheng and Yang Luyu? Have you made an appointment?" No matter how grand the Wuzhen summit is, it will only happen in two days.
Things have to be prioritized, and the immediate matters should be resolved first, so that Zhou Dongsheng can have time to go to the summit to have a good meeting with the leaders of all parties.
"We've made an appointment, let's make an appointment for dinner later..." Li Jiana said in detail. Although she has now become a group executive, her duties as an assistant have not fundamentally changed.
After all, the change in her identity was due to Zhou Dongsheng's change in identity, so Li Jiana still knew clearly what was more important.
"Okay, it seems that these two people are a little impatient. They were doing Tai Chi with me before, and they had to let the bullets fly for a while!" Zhou Dongsheng said with certainty of victory.
Then the group returned to Zhou Dongsheng's home to rest for a while, and then went to the place to eat until nightfall.
By the time Zhou Dongsheng pushed open the box door, Huang Zheng and Yang Luyu were already chatting happily.
"I didn't expect that it would be your turn to be late this time. Even if you don't drink, you have to punish yourself by having three drinks." Huang Zheng was the first to ask.
"Okay, let's use tea instead of wine, let's do it!" Zhou Dongsheng didn't include the lake, so he naturally had three cups of tea. After drinking it happily, he looked at the time and said jokingly.
"No, I don't think I'm late at this time. I didn't expect you two to be so impatient and arrive earlier than me?"
After Zhou Dongsheng revealed their thoughts with one word, the two looked at each other without feeling guilty, and said very calmly: "How about we also have a drink together?"
"Dr. Zhou, Mr. Huang, I'll do it first as a token of respect!" Yang Luyu raised his head and drank the wine in the glass without saying a word.
"Mr. Yang is so happy, so I can't hold my drink in my mouth, so here's a toast!" Huang Zheng was also in a good mood and drank it all in one gulp.
Then the three of them looked at each other and smiled, and sat down respectively. With this interruption, the atmosphere suddenly became more heated. Zhou Dongsheng swept around the table and asked casually.
"Why didn't you bring Sister Gu with you today? Aren't Brother Huang and Sister Gu inseparable?"
"Hey, don't accuse someone of innocence out of thin air. I happened to be on a business trip. Why do you miss her?" Huang Zheng, not to be outdone, retorted.
Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help laughing, and then laughed at himself: "I am a playboy with a good reputation, but I have no innocence for you to smear."
"To be successful in life, you must have all the fun, and you don't waste your youth in being romantic. These two sentences can't be more suitable when applied to Jay Chou." Yang Luyu chimed in from the side.
After some banter, the three of them talked briefly about this issue. Zhou Dongsheng chatted casually, "Invitation to the Wuzhen Summit, the two of you should be on the invitation list. We can go together in two days."
.”
"This is the first time I've been invited, and I just happened to go there to gain some perspective." Huang Zheng said with a smile, and Yang Luyu echoed.
"When I first came in, I saw that you were chatting happily. What were you talking about?" Zhou Dongsheng nodded, changed the topic, and started going straight to the topic.
"Didn't I borrow the glory of Director Jay recently? The second Golden Second Award has completely made me famous. And I had a few more words with Mr. Huang about the exclusive sponsorship proposed by Director Jay earlier..."
Yang Luyu said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner that after the B round of financing, in terms of the size of the company, the current Wenxue Network and Xunmeng Technology are almost on par.
But in terms of qualifications and background, Huang Zheng is naturally superior.
"Not only that, after in-depth understanding, I discovered that what you said, Dongsheng, is true. Our two families do have a lot in common in algorithm recommendation. It is worth learning from each other's strengths..."
"So we are planning to set up another technology company and achieve in-depth cooperation in technology research and development. Naturally, this kind of thing cannot be avoided without you as an investor. How about it? Are you interested in investing in technology?"
Huang Zheng continued his conversation and brought up another matter. Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but say it with great interest.
"Okay, I didn't expect that the two of you would talk so much in such a short time. I will not miss such a good thing. The future is the era of big data algorithms. If you work hard in technology early, you will be rewarded early.
…”
Zhou Dongsheng mentioned it casually. As one of the "victims" of big data, Zhou Dongsheng knew how powerful this thing was.
However, with his shallow understanding of technology, there was really no way for him to reveal more information.
Huang Zheng and Yang Luyu couldn't help but think deeply, and then Huang Zheng said to the point: "You kid has always had such a vicious vision. With you looking after me, I am inexplicably confident in this matter."
"Hey, Mr. Huang sees the same thing, otherwise I wouldn't have warmly invited Director Jay to become a strategic investor. Douyin is what it is today, thanks to half of Director Zhou's credit!" Yang Luyu also praised without hesitation.
.
"You two should stop filling me with ecstasy soup. Why don't you do something practical and give me more shares or something? I don't mind anyway." Zhou Dongsheng joked.
"Give it back. The shares in your hands are almost more than those of our two founders combined, right?" Huang Zheng laughed and scolded.
Zhou Dongsheng chuckled, and then said: "Since you believe in my vision so much, I won't hide it anymore..."
Zhou Dongsheng took out a piece of data that Li Jiana had prepared in advance and handed it to the two of them in duplicate. He then nodded slightly and motioned for the two of them to review it.
