Volume 1: Little People Return 2014 Chapter 64: Tea and Heroes
Chen Shijie came to Yangcheng on a business trip happily. Now the Shark platform is in a stage of rapid development, and as the helmsman, he naturally has a lot of things to do.
The meeting with the Little People Media Company was just a casual thing to do. Chen Shijie was somewhat interested in both the capital behind the company and the young man Zhou Dongsheng.
By the way, we can also talk about the signing issues of several anchors under Xiaorenwu Media. Although they are broadcasting live on the Shark platform, their contracts are still stuck.
The ambiguous attitude of Little People Media also made Chen Shijie a little confused. Are they planning to raise the price?
The next morning, when Chen Shijie was about to go to Little Man Media Company for an appointment, he received a message from the company.
"Mr. Chen, something bad has happened. There is movement on the Tiger Tooth Platform."
"what's the situation?"
"Huchi platform released news that it has signed three anchors, PDD, Su Qian and Lin Kaixin, with annual salaries of tens of millions..."
Chen Shijie frowned. It turned out that he was waiting here. If the annual salary was really tens of millions, Chen Shijie would have nothing to say.
If it were him, he would not have offered this price. Although these three anchors are very popular in their respective regions, overall they are still not worth "tens of millions of annual salary".
You should know that Dazhi, the current top player on the Shark platform, has been famous in the League of Legends field for a long time, especially in the field of video commentary, and has accumulated a lot of popularity.
That's why the Shark platform spent a huge amount of money to recruit Dazhige at a price of up to 15 million, and Dazhige did bring a lot of traffic to the Shark platform.
As for the current PDD, in Chen Shijie's eyes, he is still a little lacking. After all, they are all in the League of Legends section, and having a top position is enough.
As for Su Qian and Lin Kaixin, they are even less worth mentioning. The Shark platform does not lack this type of anchors. If they leave, they can just support a few more.
This is a major advantage of being a platform. The platform only worries about not having enough capital and traffic, not about not having anchors.
After understanding the situation, Chen Shijie hung up the phone. Although the news came suddenly, the news had been released and the matter was probably a foregone conclusion. There was no point in worrying about it.
If you can poach other people's anchors, there is nothing wrong with others poaching your anchors. It's just normal business competition and not worth mentioning.
On the contrary, Chen Shijie wanted to take a look at this Little Figure Media Company.
He finally came to his senses. Wasn't the company's plan to play both sides of the platform and eat both ends? No wonder the contract was stuck. It turned out that they wanted to sell it at a good price.
interesting!
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Chen Shijie's round face, and he walked leisurely towards the Little Man Media Company.
…
Because the Huchi platform is in Yangcheng, Zhou Dongsheng chose to visit it.
As the CEO of the Shark Platform who was far away in Jiangcheng came from afar, Zhou Dongsheng naturally made a room for him in the company to welcome him.
Soon, Zhou Dongsheng met Chen Shijie, the boss of the Shark platform.
"Hello, Mr. Chen. Hello, I warmly welcome you to our company. You really bring honor to our company." Zhou Dongsheng smiled and extended his hand.
"Mr. Zhou is really a young and promising man. When I was your age, I was just an ordinary programmer." Chen Shijie also smiled and stretched out his hand.
"Please come in and chat while you drink tea."
The two of them walked in side by side, while Xu Kaidao, who was standing beside them, lagged behind them slightly, following behind without making a sound.
Seeing this, the employees couldn't help but curiously lean over to observe. Even if they didn't know this person, they could tell the importance of the boss from his attitude.
A moment later, the three of them sat down in Zhou Dongsheng's office, and Zhou Dongsheng skillfully fiddled with the tea set.
In Chaoshan customs, making tea to entertain guests has always been the host's right. Because people are used to discussing things at the tea table, making tea is also a small habit for the host to control the right to speak.
"So Mr. Zhou is from Chaoshan. No wonder he is so good at business at such a young age. His reputation is well-deserved." Chen Shijie said with a smile, his round face looking very amiable.
"I just follow your big platform to make a living. I am far inferior to Mr. Chen. Shark is such a big platform. It will be great in the future."
Zhou Dongsheng can still say friendly and polite words even though the sedan chair is carried by many people.
Moreover, Zhou Dongsheng now feels more confident and can handle situations like this more and more easily.
"Since Mr. Zhou is so optimistic about our platform , why didn't he choose us first for cooperation?" Chen Shijie asked with a smile.
"Haha, let's talk business. The Huchi platform offers so much. Isn't the purpose of doing business to make money?" Zhou Dongsheng laughed.
Then he waved his hand and said, "Come on, let's have some tea first." This slightly interrupted Chen Shijie's rhythm.
Chen Shijie picked up a cup of tea, drank it slowly, and then said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou is really a down-to-earth person. It is indeed the truth. Everyone is here to make money."
"Although three anchors have signed contracts with the Huchi platform, our company still has many anchors on the Shark platform. We still have to rely on Mr. Chen's care." Zhou Dongsheng drank the tea in one gulp and said happily.
Xu Kaidao remained silent on the side. He was just there to keep company. There was no need for him to interrupt the conversation between bosses.
"Mr. Zhou really has a good plan. He is maneuvering between the two platforms, trying to please both sides and gain the benefits. Aren't you afraid of not pleasing both sides?" Chen Shijie asked with a smile.
"Mr. Chen, you must be joking. I am very optimistic about the development of the live broadcast industry. How could such a promising industry have only two platforms?
As far as I know, there is a new platform in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, right? It seems to be called Zhanqi. I believe there will be many more platforms like this in the future. "
Zhou Dongsheng remained unmoved and tried to smooth things over.
"I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to be so well-informed. But business requires competition. I am quite confident in the development of the Shark platform and I am also confident that it can surpass the Tiger Tooth platform."
When talking about his own business, Chen Shijie has no need to conceal the confidence in his tone. If even he, the helmsman, has no confidence, how can he gain the favor of capital?
"Of course, I have great confidence in Mr. Chen. Even if there is competition between live streaming platforms, Shark Platform will be the one that laughs last."
However, the one who laughs last refers to the Internet giant that is the big winner who laughs last after being acquired by Tenda. It is a great winner.
"Thank you for your good wishes, Mr. Zhou. But on second thought, Mr. Zhou's business is much more promising than the platform. I wonder if you would accept investment? I personally also want to take a share." Chen Shijie suddenly changed the subject and asked.
"Oh? Of course, the more investment the better. However, our company has just completed a round of financing. If there is a plan for the next round of financing, I will definitely inform Mr. Chen first."
"After all, my business depends entirely on your platform. We should establish a close cooperative relationship."
"Come on, have some tea."
After Zhou Dongsheng finished speaking, he gestured with his hand again, and the scene had a bit of the "discussing heroes over tea" atmosphere .
However, the live broadcast industry in the future will really have some flavor of the turbulent times of the Three Kingdoms. The chaotic times are coming, heroes are emerging all over the world, and various forces are setting up live broadcast platforms and recruiting heroes from all over the world to join their forces with huge sums of money to compete in the live broadcast industry.
Having said that, Zhou Dongsheng doesn't want to be Liu Bei, but to get as close to the Sima family as possible...
