Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 454: No Longer Amon of Wu
At the Golden Second Awards ceremony, a collection of blessings from celebrities was playing on the big screen, which was presented to thousands of viewers through live streaming, further demonstrating the importance of the Golden Second Awards to the audience.
"How about this arrangement from beginning to end? Is it quite good?" Principal Wang leaned back tactically and said with some pride in his chair.
The screen even featured a new girl group signed by Wang Xuelong's Banana Media. Although not many people know them, as a Korean girl group, they have further expanded the international scope of the Golden Second Awards.
Although the area is limited, it still looks quite impressive in the eyes of the uninformed audience.
"As expected of you as the secretary of the entertainment industry, Principal Wang, your reputation is no exaggeration." Zhou Dongsheng joked with a smile.
" I won't say any more polite words. Since I've been working so hard, don't forget to include me in the next round of financing." Principal Wang said with all his might.
This effort is not only due to his friendship with Zhou Dongsheng, but also because he is very interested in the Muse music short video project.
At the beginning, this interest may have been just a little bit, but when Principal Wang suddenly saw Zhou Dongsheng appear at the dinner party in Wuzhen.
When even a mere Golden Second Award was enough to make Ding Sanshi show up, this interest quickly expanded to an unprecedented level.
In just over a year, Principal Wang witnessed with his own eyes the legendary and inspirational story of a small man's step-by-step rise.
Thinking back to their first meeting, Principal Wang still remembers that Zhou Dongsheng confidently offered him a valuation of 100 million yuan, and shamelessly gave the reason that "Liu is worth 50 million, but my brain is worth more."
Such a ridiculous reason, as well as the youthful self-confidence, really made Principal Wang take an interest in this young man.
In addition, he had been paying attention to the field of live broadcasting for a long time, so he had the idea of investing in Zhou Dongsheng. In Principal Wang's original plan, he was considering taking Xiaorenren Media for his own use...
Unexpectedly, the speed of industry development far exceeded his imagination, not only the development of the live broadcast industry, but also the development of small-scale media.
And who would have thought that an ordinary media company could produce top anchors one after another?
At first, Principal Wang thought that this young man was just lucky, but when accidental events happened one after another, it naturally became inevitable.
Zhou Dongsheng has fulfilled his bold words with his actions. He is indeed worth more, and this value is still immeasurable to this day.
No one can relate to this point more than Principal Wang who witnessed it with his own eyes. For an investor like Principal Wang, it is natural that he would want to increase his holdings in such a hot stock.
Although it is not ruled out that this monster stock may become a fleeting meteor, leaving only a brief moment of flash before disappearing, it is also possible that this monster stock will soar into the sky and become unstoppable.
Investing always involves risk, but the risk is also directly proportional to the return.
In Principal Wang's opinion, Zhou Dongsheng was worthy of his risk. After all, at this rate of , he might be able to be on par with him someday...
"Of course, no problem. I think President Yang will definitely not refuse a high-quality investor like Principal Wang . After all, I am just a strategic investor."
Zhou Dongsheng didn't think too much about it and agreed immediately.
Ding Sanshi, who was standing by, said calmly, "I have already reserved the next round of financing. Xiao Wang, you can't snatch it from me."
"Mr. Ding, how about we make a deal? Zhuchang is the lead investor, so let me get some benefit from it as well." Principal Wang started negotiating with Ding Sanshi. It would be enough as long as he could get in the car first and occupy a parking space.
"That won't work. I'm afraid if I get soft-hearted now, I'll regret it later." Ding Sanshi said jokingly.
"If the pig farm wants to invest exclusively, then I really can't compete, unless I convince my grandfather..." Principal Wang said with a helpless smile.
"Haha, even if your old man comes up, he can't overwhelm me. I just have high hopes for this kid Dongsheng..." Ding Sanshi smiled like a Maitreya Buddha and patted Zhou Dongsheng on the shoulder while speaking.
"I don't mean that. Mr. Ding, you're joking. As Dongsheng's friend, I am also very optimistic about him..." Principal Wang said calmly, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he was no longer the same old Wu A'mon.
While the three of them were chatting, Yang Luyu on the stage had already eloquently described the concept of music short videos and the original intention of the Golden Second Award, and at the same time laid the groundwork for the final announcement of the name change strategy and a fresh start.
Next comes the award ceremony, which begins with a few encouraging words, selecting some potential stocks with outstanding performance and great potential on the platform as nominations and awards, and also distributing separate awards as encouragement.
Among them, the Best Food Short Video was awarded to Yang Zimi without any suspense, and the Best Dance Short Video was awarded to Su Qian...
In addition, after all, Muse short videos have only been in the domestic market for a relatively short time, and the number of accumulated users and outstanding creators is very limited.
Therefore, even if we pick out the short ones to highlight the Golden Second Award, the number of people we can choose is very limited. But since they are all just supporting roles anyway, this does not have much impact.
On the contrary, Zhou Dongsheng also intends to use the Golden Second Award as a stage to point out the direction for many creators who are interested in short videos.
As long as one is interested, it is not difficult to find the opportunities contained therein. Whether it is the best dialect, best cute pet, best science and other subdivided short video awards, the intention is the same.
It is definitely difficult to support a huge short video platform just by skirting the rules and selling sex. What can really make Muse short video flourish is definitely more diversified content output!
Zhou Dongsheng is of course very clear about this point, and these sub-awards correspond to a 100,000 yuan creative incentive bonus and platform recommendation traffic, etc.
With these tempting conditions in place, it is naturally enough to move people's hearts, and there must be brave men under a large sum of money. After this battle, the effect of buying horse bones with a large sum of money will naturally be revealed.
After so much preparation, it is finally time for the final presentation of the top five annual awards.
The Golden Second Award has established five annual awards, and the winners will receive a million-dollar creative incentive bonus provided by the platform.
Compared with the encouraging nature of the sub-awards, the five major awards are where the value of the Golden Second Award is truly reflected.
The value may not be reflected at the moment, and for many viewers, it is difficult to directly understand the weight of these five annual awards.
Just like some talent shows, where the champions are selected with great difficulty, no matter how much they brag about their authenticity, the facts still have to speak for themselves.
True gold is not afraid of fire, and the common people are that fire!
This is also the reason why many talent shows and some awards are difficult to convince the public.
However, this problem is not a problem for Zhou Dongsheng. Setting up the stage of the Golden Second Award is just the beginning.
In the coming year, Zhou Dongsheng will let the public witness with their own eyes that the winners are truly worthy of the titles.
The eyes of the general public are sharp. Even if the Golden Second Award has an element of "fraud", it cannot be denied that what Zhou Dongsheng took out is real gold.
Xu Ruoan came on stage as the award presenter and very elegantly took out the answer from the envelope, reading out: "Next is the Golden Second Award for Newcomer of the Year... The winner of the Golden Second Award for Best Newcomer of the Year is - [Papi Jiang]!"
