Chapter 82 The Current Situation of Little People Media
In the office, Xu Kaidao was giving Zhou Dongsheng a brief report on the company's current situation.
At present, the development of Little People Media can be said to be rapid. After raising 30 million yuan, it signed three major anchors to Huya Platform for 15 million yuan.
Even Curly Baboon, who signed the contract following Liu's recommendation, is now prospering. With his unique live broadcast style, he has become very popular on the Shark platform. He even signed a contract with Shark with an annual salary of 15 million.
Xu Kaidao did not expect that the live broadcast industry would explode so quickly, and that in such a short period of time, the value of the anchor would have risen to such an extent.
Although the signing fee needs to be divided proportionally with the anchor, and it does not arrive in one lump sum, today's Little Man Media has a stable cash flow and sufficient funds on its books.
In Xu Kaidao's view, such a start-up company is already off to a dream start, and it still has huge potential that has yet to be realized, especially the company's boss Zhou Dongsheng.
Although Little Man Media developed rapidly under his own management, Xu Kaidao knew that the biggest contributor was Zhou Dongsheng, the boss behind the scenes, rather than himself, the manager.
In Xu Kaidao's eyes, Zhou Dongsheng is already quite a legend. He is young but has a keen eye. Not only does he have a keen eye on the industry, but even the anchors he signed have shown amazing commercial value...
When Zhou Dongsheng offered a market value of 100 million for financing, Xu Kaidao thought it was a bit exaggerated, but at present, he is still short-sighted. It is not a problem for Little Man Media to double its market value.
This also strengthened Xu Kaidao's idea of clinging to Zhou Dongsheng's thigh. For Xu Kaidao, who has reached middle age, he must consider whether this is the last chance he has in his life.
Zhou Dongsheng is also very satisfied with this humeral minister. In the past six months, he has managed Little Man Media in an orderly manner and implemented his plans in place.
Although Zhou Dongsheng has a forward-looking vision, professional matters must be left to professionals. Just having a brain is not enough, you must also have a body to execute.
"Old Xu, although our company is developing well now, there is a potential crisis." Zhou Dongsheng said while making tea.
When Xu Kaidao heard this, he immediately sat upright. In his own eyes, the situation was great, but in his boss's eyes, there was a potential crisis? Is this the gap?
"Although our company has been lucky enough to create several big anchors, the success of Liu and Curly Baboon has a bit of luck in it."
"Their ability to stand out can be said to be due to the traffic blessing of their retired players, and they also cater to the live broadcast platform's excess demand for traffic in the gaming field. The rare goods are available, which leads to high annual salaries."
"It can be said that without our company, they may have become the first-line anchors of the platform. We are just seizing the opportunity and taking advantage."
Zhou Dongsheng paused for a moment, then continued talking.
"This is also the current shortcoming of our company. We do not have stable blood-forming capabilities, and the categories of anchors under our company are too single. The direction we need to work hard in the future should be how to establish a system for discovering and cultivating new talents."
"Although our company's main business is currently anchor management, the concept of Internet celebrities should not be limited to this field. Looking to the future, the Internet celebrity economy is still a blue ocean!"
"When we can become a successful Internet celebrity and a reliable media company for little people, in my opinion, we will have achieved something."
Zhou Dongsheng has become more and more proficient in his ability to boast and paint a big pie, and he has completely found his position.
Let’s not say whether it can be realized or not, let’s blow it out first and then leave the rest to the employees to worry about. Isn’t this the boss’s job?
Xu Kaidao was also in awe. He didn't expect that his boss had already taken such a long-term view, while he was still complacent about the little success in front of him...
In comparison, my own structure is indeed far behind.
"I understand, boss, and I will make full efforts and preparations in this area and establish a complete training system!"
After being beaten with a big stick by Zhou Dongsheng, Xu Kaidao dared to slack off and secretly made up his mind to work harder for fear that he would not be able to keep up with the company's development pace and would be thrown off the car midway.
"In addition to discovering new talents, we also need to put some effort into the operation and maintenance of big anchors. The video editing done by Han Fei is a good idea."
“We can create a series of videos for each major anchor based on their characteristics, and spread the live content into videos, which can also further accumulate traffic and fame.”
"The brighter these signs are, the more likely we will be able to attract new people with potential. To put it simply, we need to grasp it with both hands and be strong with both hands!"
After a long talk, Zhou Dongsheng stopped without finishing his thoughts. Drawing the pie was really exciting.
"Old Xu, I believe your ability will not let me down. The company's shareholders and I are also discussing an equity incentive plan. The details will depend on your performance." Zhou Dongsheng said lightly.
After beating the big stick, of course you have to give a sweet date in time. Even if you can't eat it, you can still look at the plum to quench your thirst. As for when to fulfill this promise...
Then we have to see whether Zhou Dongsheng remembered that the person hanging on the street lamp was so confident.
Since ancient times, deep love cannot be retained, and there are always routines to win people's hearts. Although Da Bang Tian Zao is a bit cliché, it works better.
"Don't worry, boss, I won't let you down. I'll arrange the work right away!"
Xu Kaidao vowed to faithfully implement the boss's policies and realize what the boss boasted about. This is what a good manager needs to do.
Xu Kaidao then turned around and went out, immersed in his work.
After bragging, Zhou Dongsheng was a little tired and turned around to open the stock software.
January 2015 is already halfway through, and the Chinese New Year is still one month away. However, after a good start to the year, the stock market has entered a period of shock adjustment.
The A-share index fluctuated around 3350, and today it fell to around 3222 points, causing many retail investors who rushed in following the good start to curse.
What about the soaring bull market that was promised? Isn’t this A-share market, which has fluctuated up and down and failed to recover, still look familiar?
Even the national liquor, which Zhou Dongsheng had heavily invested in, had a good start in 2015 and went straight out of the daily limit. Many national liquor enthusiasts were shocked and rushed in with the main force waving banknotes.
As a result, it was copied directly on the top of the mountain. Guojiu turned around and went straight out of a wave of 7 consecutive losses, falling directly to 87 yuan.
The retail investors screamed and cursed wildly, and immediately chose to cut off the meat and jump out of the car. What a piece of rubbish national liquor. It is indeed an adou that cannot be helped. If I buy liquor again, I will be a dog!
Unexpectedly, on the second day after cutting the meat, the national wine went up to 90 yuan again. Retail investors suddenly began to become confused. The banker was the real dog, and they really took great pains to harvest my little money!
In contrast, Zhou Dongsheng just calmly glanced at the market and the profits in his account. During this wave of shock adjustment, he only made a little profit.
The ups and downs are only temporary. As long as you are patient enough and wait for the A-shares to take off, there is no such thing as losing money. Of course, it is a different matter if you are full of stocks.
