Volume 1: Little People Return 2014 Chapter 038: Small People Also Have Ambitions
Zhou Dongsheng was happily soaking in the hot spring, completely emptying his mind and enjoying the pleasure spreading throughout his body. It must be said that soaking in a hot spring is indeed a very relaxing experience.
At this time, the mobile phone placed on the towel rang. Zhou Dongsheng took it and took a look with some surprise. It turned out to be Liu calling.
"Hello, Xiao Liu, what's wrong? Are there any problems with the live broadcast?" Zhou Dongsheng asked lazily.
"Ah, it's not you, boss. I just haven't seen you in the company for a while, so I called to say hello." said Liu, who was not yet a future big anchor.
After persisting in live streaming for a period of time, Liu has accumulated a certain popularity on the Shark platform with his unique live streaming style. Even the platform has noticed him and approached him to discuss signing a contract.
However, the platform did not expect that Liu had already been signed by the media company, so it had no choice but to connect with the company. This issue would naturally be handled by Xu Kaidao, and Liu did not need to worry about it.
But he had another problem in looking for Zhou Dongsheng...
"Boss, you know I was a professional player before, right? Then my previous club boss chatted with me recently and was very interested in you and wanted to communicate with you..." After some polite remarks, Liu went straight to the point.
"Principal Wang?! Want to communicate with me?" Zhou Dongsheng suddenly started, as if the wall of the dimension was broken.
This man is definitely a heavyweight figure. A small figure like Zhou Dongsheng can only look up to him. The two are not on the same level at all.
This is still the case even though he has some assets now. When he poached Liu, he did not even consider this possibility, if he remembered correctly.
When the principal got involved in the live broadcast industry, Liu was the top player of Panda for a while. Even after the platform collapsed, he was sued in court because of debt issues...
Now I can be considered as intercepting Principal Wang's people, right? Zhou Dongsheng didn't expect that they would have such an intersection, and his mind suddenly became active.
I am just a small person. Even if I know a lot of things about the future, I don’t have the ability to participate. But if I make friends with this gentleman, my operating space will be different.
Take advantage of the situation! These two words popped up in Zhou Dongsheng's mind.
Small people have their own way of survival, and taking advantage of the situation is undoubtedly the most suitable way for Zhou Dongsheng to play his role now. People are the sum of all social relations.
Some problems that seem unsolvable to small people are just issues of personal relationships in the eyes of some people.
"I have no problem with that. Do you want me to go to Shanghai, or does the principal want to come to Guangzhou to play for a few days?" Zhou Dongsheng suppressed his inner throbbing and asked calmly.
"Then I'll give your contact information to Principal Wang, and you two can chat on your own." Liu breathed a sigh of relief, but was a little surprised that Zhou Dongsheng actually knew the title "Principal".
The origin of the title of Principal Wang is much earlier than that of the National Husband. It originated in the e-sports circle. At first, it was a sarcasm from fans. Later, Principal Wang took the opportunity to make fun of himself, and this nickname came about.
As a veteran spectator, Zhou Dongsheng would naturally know this nickname. We can't ask him to call him "husband", right?
Although Zhou Dongsheng did a lot of nonsense on Weibo when he won the championship in 2018, he didn't care about his face for the metaphysical lottery...
Ahem, pulling his thoughts back, Zhou Dongsheng got the contact information and added him as a friend directly. He was secretly excited in his heart, because this guy is a real big shot.
【Hello, brother. 】
[Hello, Principal. I have been a fan of IG for ten years. ]
[So that's why you signed PDD? Your company is quite interesting. ]
[It’s just an investment. I’m optimistic about the future of the live streaming industry.]
[Oh? Can you tell me about it?]
…
During the chat, Zhou Dongsheng quickly sorted out his thoughts. The reason why he attracted this person's attention was definitely not just because he signed the live streamer PDD.
Rather, it was his own company that aroused the interest of this person. This "low-key internet celebrity Xiao Wang" is now an internet celebrity and is also active in criticizing everyone on social media.
He still has enough start-up funds for five small goals, and e-sports and live streaming are both his future investment directions.
Perhaps it was his company's involvement in the live broadcast industry, coupled with Liu's medium, that attracted this person's attention.
In that case, Zhou Dongsheng has to start licking himself...ah, that's flattering behavior.
[The live broadcast industry is currently limited by computer equipment, but in the future, the dual popularity of 4G networks and smartphones will usher in an era of live broadcasting for all people...]
Zhou Dongsheng's words were shockingly confident. What he said about what he had witnessed with his own eyes sounded powerful and true.
[The arrival of the era of universal live streaming means that a huge amount of traffic will flow into the live streaming industry. Live streaming is likely to become the fourth track of the Internet after social networking, games, and e-commerce...]
[The next hot spot on the Internet is the live streaming industry! ]
Since he wants to curry favor with someone powerful, he naturally has to show his uniqueness. The only thing Zhou Dongsheng can rely on is the "future" he has experienced.
The rise of any industry means the release of huge industry dividends and will also lead to the birth of industry giants.
Zhou Dongsheng knew that he was just a small figure and did not have the ability to become a giant, so he chose to retreat and build a network to reap the benefits of the industry.
But now, what if Principal Wang intervened in the live broadcast platform in advance? Would Panda's ending be different?
Thinking of this, Zhou Dongsheng suddenly felt a little excited. The excitement of possibly participating in rewriting the course of history was too great for Zhou Dongsheng!
Although small people are small people, they also have unrealistic ambitions and fantasies. Once there is a possibility of realizing them, they may shout out, "Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers born with a special kind of talent?"
[Very interesting insights. Since you are so optimistic about the future of the live streaming industry, why don’t you choose to build a platform? ] Principal Wang asked.
Is this "Why not eat meat?" Zhou Dongsheng scratched his head and decisively sent out two words.
【No money.】
Principal Wang on the other end of the phone suddenly laughed. This person is honest and can make friends. After all, his principle for making friends is: no matter whether he has money or not, he is not as rich as me anyway.
Zhou Dongsheng is particularly single. I need startup funds for five small goals, which are to kick Tencent, step on Alibaba, live broadcast with the left hand and short video with the right hand, and dream of becoming an Internet giant.
Of course, in the end you may find that you still cannot escape the control of the Internet giants.
[Brother, you are such a down-to-earth person. I will go to Guangzhou to have a drink with you when I have time.]
[I am allergic to alcohol, can I drink tea? ]
Zhou Dongsheng was very single, and Principal Wang sent him an emoticon package. Zhou Dongsheng was not to be outdone, and after a while of exchanging emoticons, he put down his phone.
This first conversation must have left a deep impression on him, and I now have his contact information, so there will be plenty of opportunities in the future .
Zhou Dongsheng calmed down a little, and his eyes flickered with something that had never appeared in his two lifetimes.
It was interesting. He inexplicably began to look forward to the future. Zhou Dongsheng had no idea what the future would be like under the influence of this butterfly.
But an unchanging future is obviously not what Zhou Dongsheng wants to experience. At least he is no longer the thirty-year-old prodigal who has left his hometown and is doing nothing.
Originally, Zhou Dongsheng just wanted to be a fisherman who reaped the benefits of the times, but suddenly he had a fishing net in his hand and he couldn't help it.
I’ve almost finished soaking in the hot springs, it’s time to go eat. No matter what the future holds, I still have to eat when it’s time.
