Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 167 Which Arrangement?
In the following period of time, Xiaorenwu Media entered a stage of steady development. Not only did it recruit a large number of new staff, but it also expanded the company's scope and rented a vacant office floor upstairs.
In terms of business, whether it is the ASMR attempt or Yang Zimi, Xiao Sima and others who have accumulated sufficient traffic, they need to steadily convert it into their own popularity through works and live broadcasts in the coming period of time.
After all, the business of internet celebrity is, to some extent, no different from that of star. Both need to be active in the audience's field of vision frequently.
Use works to manage and consolidate your own audience base, so that you have IP attributes with commercial value, and then you can realize traffic monetization.
Except for a very few lucky people, this process still requires long-term efforts to achieve the effect of accumulation and development.
Even for the very few lucky ones, if they cannot seize this opportunity and turn it into their own gains, but instead get lost in the temporary crowd of traffic, they can often only become a shooting star on the Internet, brilliant but short-lived.
Such things will be common in the future, and Zhou Dongsheng is not in a hurry about it.
I have done what I should do. Let Xiaorenren Media digest and absorb the gains from this period. Anyway, Xu Kaidao is looking after this business, so I don't need to worry about it.
Of course, Zhou Dongsheng was not idle either. Under the operation of Lu Sifang, Dongsheng Investment has set up a research team and rented an office in the CBD of Yangcheng as the office space of Dongsheng Investment.
At the same time, this is also Zhou Dongsheng’s third company. Both Xiaorenmin Media and Yinian Media are taking the Internet route. The latter currently has only one person, Mu Ziqi, who is regarded as a trump card by Zhou Dongsheng.
As an investment company, Dongsheng Investment is still a little-known player in the investment community. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is just an empty shell.
But whether it is Pinxixi or MihaYo, as long as any one of these two projects can be successfully invested in, it will be enough to make this company a star in the investment industry in the next few years.
After all, both of these companies possess the valuable investment attributes of "dragon slayers", and to a certain extent, these two companies have indeed done so.
The 2014 World Cup made Zhou Dongsheng his first pot of gold, and the stock market in 2015 allowed Zhou Dongsheng to successfully snowball his fortune. Naturally, these two companies are Zhou Dongsheng’s next target.
As long as he can bet on one of them, it will be enough to make himself worry-free. After all, as a person who has been through it, Zhou Dongsheng is very clear about the future of these two companies, and their valuations easily exceed 100 billion US dollars!
These are the two gold mines truly buried deep in the investment market. Even if you only own 10% of the shares, they can be converted into tens of billions of dollars in assets in just a few years!
These two companies may be the biggest opportunities in this era that Zhou Dongsheng knows about.
However, Zhou Dongsheng is only limited to knowing the future of these two companies, but now, he still needs to do some homework.
And this is exactly the scope of Lu Sifang's work. After all, he is an elite who has worked in a large investment bank. Things like information channels and connections can play a certain role.
This is the result of specialization. After Zhou Dongsheng provided the relevant information, the research team assembled by Lu Sifang began to collect relevant information and then summarized it and handed it to Zhou Dongsheng.
"Modu Xunmeng Information Technology Co., Ltd. was established in 2014. Its founder is Huang Zheng..."
"In April 2015, Xunmeng Information Technology launched Pinhaohuo..."
The information on the materials is very detailed, and the founder Huang Zheng has a very rich personal resume. As a top student at Jiangsu and Zhejiang University, Huang Zheng went to study in the country of light to obtain a master's degree.
At the age of 24, he got the opportunity that countless people dream of and joined Google, a company that was rapidly rising and would soon become an international Internet giant.
However, after returning to China in 2006 and participating in the establishment of the domestic office of Google, perhaps it was the rapid changes in the country or the rise of many domestic Internet companies that inspired Huang Zheng's entrepreneurial ambition.
In 2007, Huang Zheng resolutely resigned from Google, gave up the job opportunity that countless people coveted, and chose to turn to business.
Although he resigned from the international search engine giant, Huang Zheng chose Internet e-commerce as the direction of his business, hoping to compete with the established Alibaba.
However, neither the mobile phone e-commerce business nor the e-commerce agency operation business that were established successively have been able to make waves in the e-commerce field, and the two giants, Alibaba and Jingdong, have become the mountains that cannot be avoided in the e-commerce field.
In 2011, Huang Zheng seemed to have given up on e-commerce and chose to start a gaming company, namely Xunmeng Information Technology. It seemed that he was ready to turn his guns around. Since he couldn't beat the e-commerce company Ma, he decided to fight against gaming giants such as Game Ma and Zhuchang.
However, almost extreme stubbornness and indomitable spirit may be necessary conditions for success, and Huang Zheng still has not given up on the e-commerce track.
Using his years of experience in the e-commerce field, as well as the technology and capital accumulated by the game company, Huang Zheng once again launched "Pin Haohuo", demonstrating his ambition to stick to the e-commerce field.
However, in the eyes of ordinary people, this kind of ambition may be seen as a foolish and reckless man. If one does not turn back even after hitting a wall, isn't he a "fool"?
We couldn’t beat Ali and Jingdong a few years ago, so is it possible that we can do it now?
However, extraordinary people do extraordinary things, and success often means turning what is considered "impossible" in the eyes of ordinary people into possibilities. If this is not the case, how can one possess wealth that is beyond the reach of ordinary people?
Even with the perspective of hindsight, Zhou Dongsheng still couldn't help but sigh at the amazing person Huang Zheng.
Otherwise, what if we say that investment is investing in “people”? This kind of unwavering persistence alone is something that not many people can achieve.
Now it’s just matching goods. It seems that the Pinxixi platform is probably still in the internal incubation stage. Now is a great opportunity to invest!
Zhou Dongsheng pressed the phone on the desk, and the office door was pushed open a moment later. A pretty face that looked somewhat like Zhu Zhu appeared in front of Zhou Dongsheng.
"Book two tickets to Shanghai for me and go on a business trip with me. Also notify Lu Sifang to come along as well." Zhou Dongsheng fell back in the boss chair and gave the order comfortably.
Now that he has an assistant, why does Zhou Dongsheng need to do such trivial things himself?
"Okay, boss. I'll arrange it right away." Li Jiana responded calmly and turned to go out to do her work. As the general assistant, it was her duty to accompany the boss on business trips.
The Magic City, that is Principal Wang’s territory. Thinking of this, Zhou Dongsheng called Principal Wang.
"Hello? It's rare that you take the initiative to call me. What's the matter?" Principal Wang said with a smile.
"I just want to ask when can I get the sports car?" Zhou Dongsheng joked.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't CRRC just rebound to 30 yuan? It's still unclear who will win or lose." Principal Wang scolded with a smile.
"Okay, there's nothing I can do if the principal wants to default on his debt. I have something to do and need to go to Shanghai. Are you there? Can you make some arrangements for me?" Zhou Dongsheng continued jokingly.
"What kind of arrangement?" Principal Wang laughed in a way that all men could understand, and then spoke directly.
"Just come, I'll make sure you have everything arranged."
