Chapter 292 Fuck, isn't this Wen Liang's thick eyebrows and big eyes?
The plane slowly landed in Beijing in the afterglow of dusk.
Three hours is actually just enough time to take a nap.
Through the plane window, you can see that the autumn scenery in Beijing is a bit bleak.
It seems that as Bolang's business grows, Wen Liang will inevitably have more interactions with the city of Beijing.
There are some things that others cannot replace.
However, similar to this business trip to Beijing, Wen Liang will be less likely to handle it personally.
Letting Li Ze go on an overseas business trip is partly to speed up the training of Mr. Ze so that he can dump these problems to Mr. Ze.
Those who are able should work harder.
It was similar to the last time he came to the capital. After Wen Liang walked out of the cabin door, he was taken directly off the bridge by the ground staff and quickly got into the Rolls-Royce and left.
The person who picked him up at the airport was Cao Guowei.
In fact, the two parties are not too familiar with each other, but they are both people in the scene, and they can exchange warm greetings.
As a host, Cao Guowei enthusiastically arranged for Wen Liang to stay at the newly opened Four Seasons in Beijing on the 8th of this month.
By chance, I met Liu Chiping in the lobby, who had arrived earlier.
Check-in and other matters were left to the entourage, and the three parties chatted in the public rest area of the lobby.
"Mr. Wen has worked hard all the way."
"Mr. Liu has worked hard all the way."
"Haha, don't be so polite."
"Yes, I will be the host in the evening, and the two bosses will have a casual dinner together in the honor of you?"
"Dr. Cao, you're welcome."
"..."
Small talk is really small talk, the big boss is also a human being, and he is also a vulgar person, and the chatter is very different.
That night, Zhang Sanshi and Shen Nanpeng, who were in the capital, also rushed over.
During the banquet, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
You cannot avoid vulgar flattery.
"Mr. Wen has been a bit aggressive recently. Xingchen System is running rampant in overseas markets, making the entire East American market uneasy. Apple's market value has evaporated by nearly 100 billion U.S. dollars from its high point at the beginning of the month."
"Yes, yes, the Xingchen system is the biggest hot spot in the overseas market during this period. I don't know how many capital institutions have to pay attention to Bolang."
"That's right, so it has to be Mr. Wen, who can stir up troubles by just doing anything."
"Mr. Wen really does everything casually, and then he does it shockingly. The mobile phone industry has opened the door to Mr. Wen."
Wen Liang listened happily, and finally interjected: "What you said is so good, I have to write it down for later use."
"grass!"
The four of them, Liu Chiping, pronounced the same syllable.
Then it was Liu Chiping who spoke first and asked slightly curiously: "What's Bolang's plan for the mobile phone business? Do you want to go big?"
Facing several pairs of eyes, Wen Liang answered casually: "It's hard to say, Bolang has developed too rapidly in the Internet business. After merging Xingchen Studio, some parties have high hopes for us. I think it's just a small fight.
After all, Bolang’s current focus is the Internet business.”
Several people nodded in understanding: "That's it."
This is not difficult to understand.
Especially after knowing some of Wen Liang’s background.
Cao Guowei sighed and said: "Speaking of it, Mr. Wen has a unique vision in the Internet business, which is beyond the reach of others. Cross-border mobile phone manufacturing is a waste of talent."
"That's right." Wen Liang agreed with this and mentioned Bolang's recent investment plan, "I have been busy with Internet-related business recently."
Zhang Sanshi echoed from the sidelines: "Bolang's Internet business is really booming recently, and I'm jealous."
Shen Nanpeng agreed: "There is a lot of potential in switching from PC to mobile."
The topic suddenly changed.
In fact, Shen Nanpeng originally wanted to help Cao Guowei find a few words, because Cao Guowei's wording and tone were not suitable.
After all, Sina is not as good as Bolang now.
When it comes to talent, Dong Cao is really a bit overconfident.
Moreover, Sina knows best how Bolang has risen from an unknown small company. Weibo has helped a lot in this process.
Zhang Sanshi and Shen Nanpeng are investors. Liu Chiping is also responsible for the investment coordination of White Goose. Cao Guowei is the chairman of Sina and will also pay attention to these aspects.
It's all to my liking when talking about it.
Wen Liang specifically mentioned some of Bolang Group's recent investment plans, including but not limited to Shanda Literature, PPS Audio and Video and other established matters.
There are also some side integration matters.
"Speaking of which, I have to thank White Goose for giving us a very good reference for a small company like Bolang, which helped us avoid a lot of mistakes."
Hearing what Wen Liang said, Zhang Sanshi and Shen Nanpeng both laughed teasingly.
Liu Chiping felt uncomfortable and wanted to scratch his head, but he spread his hands helplessly: "Mr. Wen, please let me live. Our Chairman Ma wants to beat someone after hearing this."
"Isn't that right? Chairman Ma doesn't care about worldly affairs, doesn't he?" Shen Nanpeng asked from the side.
Zhang Sanshi agreed with joy.
Liu Chiping: "..."
While talking and laughing, the dinner was over.
Later, Wen Liang and Liu Chiping took a car back to the hotel.
The return trip was no longer a high-profile Rolls-Royce, but a spacious GMC business car, quite luxurious, with plenty of space inside.
The two started chatting in the car.
As he spoke, Wen Liang said: "To be honest, I hope that our two families can form two large social circles, which will also make it easier to go abroad in the future. The performance of Xingchen System in overseas markets fully illustrates the abundance of overseas markets. .”
“America’s Facebook, Twitter, and Google are so full of the PC Internet. There’s no reason why we can’t take a bite of the mobile Internet.”
Liu Chiping's thoughts were racing in his mind, and he responded unhurriedly: "The overseas market is indeed huge. A platform like Facebook now generates nearly 10 billion US dollars in advertising revenue every year."
"However, it is difficult to do business overseas, and our QQ is not very friendly when developing overseas."
The meaning of this statement is very euphemistic.
Nowadays, many domestic Internet business products are actually copied from foreign models and then developed by relying on the huge demographic dividend of the domestic market.
Including Xiaocheng Book, which is rated as the Chinese version of Facebook, which is a good reputation.
Wen Liang followed the words and said: "That's why I hope that our two families can form a large social circle first and integrate our superior resources before we can pursue overseas markets."
"Travel lightly~"
Liu Chiping had something in his mind. The mobile Internet market is huge and the world has just begun, and there is a lot to do.
"We, Chairman Ma, actually have this idea as well."
Wen Liang said: "I think Chairman Ma's direction may be a bit biased. In May, you were still investing money in an independently operated e-commerce holding company. Not to mention a one-time investment of US$1 billion, you were also appointed as the chairman. This step is a good one." not ideal."
"E-commerce business, at least the current model of e-commerce business, has little future. With Alibaba and JD.com, the market is almost saturated."
"To be honest, I regretted launching the hot-selling mall, so I was forced to go into the mobile phone business."
Liu Chiping suppressed the many doubts in his heart and asked puzzledly: "How can I say that the hot-selling mall is running well?"
"The revenue from operations so far is not enough to cover the costs." Wen Liang sighed and shook his head and said, "I happened to see that the Xiaosorghum model was a bit popular, so I thought of finding another way to use the already established e-commerce channels to generate additional revenue.
additional value."
"After all, if the hot-selling mall leaves Xiaocheng Book, it's nothing."
Liu Chiping had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but in the end, he just said: "Let's finish the new Weibo first."
In fact, he is not willing to give up the e-commerce business, so he announced an investment of 1 billion US dollars. Giving up now is not only giving up halfway, but also embarrassing. Will White Goose still work in the future?
Wen Liang didn't say anything more.
The car soon arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel, and after getting off the bus, the two separated.
…………
The next day, November 20th.
The new Weibo press conference, jointly funded by Sina, White Goose, Bolang, Hillhouse, Sequoia and other companies and capital institutions, was held in Beijing.
To make big news, it is natural to invite online and offline media.
We chose a relatively famous place, the Water Cube, to release the news.
Mr. Jia presided over the process, and everything was very formal.
"Ladies and gentlemen, friends from the media, good morning, everyone, thank you all for coming..."
“…For some time, Weibo’s business has gone through a lot of ups and downs.”
"..."
Then Cao Guowei spoke: "...First of all, I would like to thank Mr. Wen Liang. Our Weibo business has been reborn, thanks to Mr. Wen's coordination and promotion."
"...Weibo is a very sharing platform, and we believe it will bring more joy to everyone."
Then Liu Chiping spoke on behalf of White Goose: "... win-win cooperation is the most prominent theme in the 21st century. We believe that the new Weibo, which is composed of White Goose Weibo and Sina Weibo, can provide everyone with every benefit."
Share value empowerment.”
Finally, there were speeches from two investors, Shen Nanpeng and Zhang Sanshi.
At the very end, Wen Liang showed his face.
"Hello everyone, I am honored to be invited to watch the ceremony. I would like to thank Director Cao for the compliment. In fact, I just did some trivial things."
"I wish everything goes well for Weibo business."
Soon we came to the last step and jointly announced the birth of the new Weibo.
Then there are media interviews.
At the same time, the Internet has already exploded.
This launch was live-streamed.
In addition, the merger of Baie Weibo and Sina Weibo has increased the activity of the Weibo platform.
And with a social platform like Xiaocheng Shu here, the netizens went crazy.
"What the hell, is this a horse?"
"Who can tell me why there is a man like Wen Liang with thick eyebrows and big eyes? Is Sina perhaps losing his mind? Don't forget that Weibo's decline is inseparable from Bolang?"
"This trick has become really outrageous. How did Wen Liang get so good at it?"
"Don't tell me that New Weibo has shares in Bolang, right?"
"Let me tell you quietly, Bolang is the largest shareholder of New Weibo, no one else~"
"Fuck fuck fuck fuck!"
Not only the troll netizens were outraged, but also the active Vs on various platforms.
They all felt that this was a fool's errand.
Jiu Ai: "I really didn't expect that there is such a way to play. It has been rumored that there will be major changes in Weibo some time ago. Is this a change? It has to be Mr. Wen."
Genius girl Xiaoqi: "Let me tell you, Wen Liang looks quite handsome in a suit."
