Volume 4 Crazy Growth 2017 Chapter 850
Naturally, Yang Luyu couldn't hear the hidden meaning of Zhou Dongsheng's words, and he didn't think much about it. He naturally thought that Zhou Dongsheng was as concerned about the performance of this live broadcast as he was.
The admiration for this strategic investor in my heart is like a surging river...
" Jay's live broadcast was so good. The sales record of over 100 million in a single broadcast has undoubtedly set a benchmark for the entire industry and made a good start for our platform..."
"It has helped our platform's previously tepid live broadcast business find its backbone. It is foreseeable that the far-reaching impact of this live broadcast will go far beyond this..."
"Jay's work is truly amazing..."
Yang Luyu, who had been up all night, was extremely excited. He finally found an outlet for his emotions and started talking non-stop like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube.
Zhou Dongsheng was overwhelmed by what he heard, as it was nothing more than some old-fashioned bragging that was not original at all.
For Zhou Dongsheng, who had fought for a whole night and had now entered a state of mind as holy as a Buddha, it was just a breeze blowing across the hills, which could not stir up any ripples in his heart at all.
Instead, he yawned and asked, "Is this all Mr. Yang can see? To be honest, I'm a little disappointed..."
There was a hint of regret in his tone, which made Yang Luyu's heart tremble. The excitement that had accumulated all night was instantly swept away, and his face suddenly felt hot and a little anxious.
For a moment, Yang Luyu's already overloaded brain almost crashed on the spot. Fortunately, Yang Luyu has never been the kind of person who is arrogant and refuses to listen to advice.
Especially for Zhou Dongsheng, his main focus is to listen to advice. It is precisely relying on this that musical.ly entered the domestic market ahead of time, and after changing from muse to TikTok short video, it has been rising step by step.
It is almost like Zhou Dongsheng's name, as dazzling as the rising sun. The achievements he has achieved in a short period of time have far exceeded many years of accumulation in the overseas market.
Especially with the appearance of the headline short video, Yang Luyu was very grateful after realizing it belatedly. If he had not listened to the advice from the beginning and insisted on doing it his own way...
In the domestic market, the music short video track is probably already dominated by Toutiao Short Video.
By then, even if they rely on their advantages in overseas markets to return to the domestic market, it will probably be too late. Even if they hold up the banner of genuine products and fight against plagiarism, they will probably not be able to get any benefits from Toutiao...
After all, the business world is as cruel as a battlefield. When speed is of the essence, only the winner who takes the market high ground first will have the right to speak.
At that time, does it still matter who is Li Gui and who is Li Kui?
And under the premise of having common interests, and Zhou Dongsheng's unambiguous and miraculous performance of repeatedly achieving remarkable results, no matter how unwilling Yang Luyu was in his heart before, he had to be convinced in the face of the ironclad facts.
After all, who would go against their own interests?
In other words, if you can win easily, why bother trying so hard to lead the whole game?
Therefore, although Yang Luyu was a little confused by Zhou Dongsheng's blow, he quickly adjusted his mentality and took a deep breath.
"Forgive my ignorance, Mr. Jay, please enlighten me..."
A man of great potential is not particular about small matters, and a real man can bend and stretch! Yang Luyu undoubtedly demonstrated these two sentences to the fullest.
Zhou Dongsheng was very satisfied with this. Even a strong man like Zhuge Liang had to sigh in vain when facing the helpless A Dou, let alone a commoner like himself?
Even if you have a good idea of the future, it is obviously impossible to maximize the benefits of this information gap if no one cooperates.
Today, Zhou Dongsheng is already satisfied with the wealth he has accumulated. His assets of tens of billions are more than enough to allow him to live a life of luxury and debauchery for the rest of his life.
So in this precious and short remaining time, I naturally want to create something different.
As the saying goes, when people are well fed and well clothed, they will be more inclined to pursue spiritual satisfaction...
The same principle applies to picking up girls. The innate desire to conquer always makes people treat things that are within their reach as trash. Even if they get them, they will not cherish them. Instead, they will be anxious for things that they can't get.
So the fact that Principal Wang was fooled by an internet celebrity seems outrageous at first glance, but after a little thought, it seems to be reasonable.
After all, having seen many slutty girls and getting used to having them at his fingertips, when he met a unique character, it immediately struck Principal Wang's heart.
Well done, woman, you've got my attention!
I'm sure this is what Principal Wang was thinking. Any similarities are purely coincidental.
This principle is applicable everywhere, and Zhou Dongsheng is no exception. It’s just that the direction of his desire is very different .
At this point, Zhou Dongsheng no longer felt sleepy. He gathered his energy to organize his words and then asked Yang Luyu a question.
"What is the most important thing for us who build platforms?"
Such a seemingly ambiguous and broad question stumped Yang Luyu for a moment. Obviously, there is no standard answer to this question, only different opinions.
In front of Zhou Dongsheng, Yang Luyu was not afraid of showing his weakness and expressed his thoughts very frankly.
“Ecology! Only ecology can determine the life or death of a platform. If the platform ecology is healthy enough, it will be like a bay of living water, flowing continuously…”
"Conversely, a platform with an exhausted ecosystem is like a pool of stagnant water, which will eventually dry up."
“So as a platform operator, everything must serve the ecosystem, and we must strive to create a healthy platform ecosystem, so that both users and creators can thrive…”
Yang Luyu said so. It was a very conventional speech, but if it was done to the extreme, it could indeed achieve certain results.
It is not difficult to see that Yang Luyu is indeed a person who can concentrate on building a good platform, but building a good platform alone is obviously not enough, otherwise Yang Luyu in his previous life would not have ended up being recruited by imitators.
"Well, that's very well said. Mr. Yang's insights into the platform ecology are very insightful. However, it is far from enough to just build a good ecology."
"At the very least, if we want to completely defeat Toutiao, or if we want to stand out from the competition of Kuaishou and Meipai, and thus complete the feat of coming from behind and winning, we obviously need to do more..."
"Among them, the most important point is to meet the needs."
Through this period of experience and accumulation, Zhou Dongsheng has obviously formed a set of unique insights of his own. Standing on the crest of the times, his perspective is obviously half a step ahead of most people.
Therefore, he naturally has his own way of grasping the context of the times.
"Demand? User demand, or creator demand?" Yang Luyu said subconsciously. After all, if these are the two questions, aren't they the same thing as the ecosystem he mentioned?
Why does Zhou Dongsheng need to reiterate it so solemnly...
“It is a policy demand and a demand of the times. In this fast-paced era of rapid change, it is undoubtedly crucial to find your own position and create value that can meet the needs…”
"As long as we can do this, Toutiao Short Video will never be able to catch up with us, and it will be just around the corner for us to take the top spot in the industry."
"After all, in this kind of situation, it is often the first person to try something new who has the opportunity to receive the greatest policy support. As for those who follow suit, at most they can only receive a few encouraging benefits..."
"It's not whoever wins that he helps, but whoever he helps wins!"
Zhou Dongsheng said meaningfully that this is a universal truth, even on the other side of the ocean where people talk about freedom, equality and fairness all the time, it is not immune to this.
After all, Zhou Dongsheng has witnessed a series of outrageous operations after fierce trade frictions between the two sides in the future. It can only be said that double standards are the nature of human beings.
Those who benefit me will naturally be treated with freedom, equality, fairness and justice, while those who do not benefit me will be hit hard without any negotiation.
After the President came to power, he personally tore off the hypocritical mask of the Lighthouse, allowing many people to see the true face of the other side of the ocean.
The major companies that are struggling to survive in the cracks have all been hit hard by this. Short video platforms are also a major disaster area, and even their cowardly behavior was once criticized.
But when you are living under someone else's roof, what else can you do except to please their mood?
Once the table of cross-border trade is overturned, it will be natural that all kinds of people will show their magical powers. Not to mention those far away, even the Indians next door will act like hooligans without even any pretense.
Let’s get back to the point. The key point of the path Zhou Dongsheng wanted to point out to Yang Luyu is nothing more than four words: go to the countryside and the mountains!
The times are a circle, and some brilliant strategic ideas are always timeless and can be used at any time.
Such strategies as surrounding the cities with the countryside, game wars, and going to the countryside, etc., are tailored to the needs of the times and local conditions, and always produce unexpected results.
Yang Luyu seemed to be thinking about something, but still didn't quite understand, so he took the opportunity to express all his doubts, hoping that Zhou Dongsheng could explain it further.
After all, when dealing with Zhou Dongsheng, the military advisor, there is no need to hide anything.
"I have had a long talk with Huang Zheng, the head of Pinxixi, on this point, and we have reached a high degree of consensus on this issue. After in-depth cooperation with Pinxixi, I believe that Mr. Yang can also see the potential of the Pinxixi platform now, right?"
"What Pinxixi did was nothing more than adapting to the needs of the times and using a series of preferential policies to capture the lower-tier markets. While other e-commerce giants were still squeezing their way up, it decisively chose the lower-tier track and found its own position..."
"It has taken a business that others look down upon to its extreme. Now, relying on the huge power accumulated in the sinking market, it has quietly topped the list of major shopping apps recently."
"If we want to achieve the same effect, we just need to do the right thing, just like them."
"In fact, the answer is hidden in my live broadcast. The insignificant thing of a single broadcast exceeding 100 million is just an appearance, and it is also a smokescreen to confuse the vast majority of people. If you want to truly realize the correct value of live broadcasting to bring goods..."
"We still have to strongly encourage the development in the direction of helping farmers and alleviating poverty. The effect may not be obvious at the beginning, but we are on the right path, so what if it is a little slower?"
"The core idea of digging deep holes, storing up food, building high walls, and slowly becoming king is also applicable to platform development."
"After all, no matter how big a platform is, can it be bigger than a country? You think we are a bay of living water, nurturing a group of fish, but aren't we also playing the role of a big fish in a bigger pond?"
"No matter how big the fish is, it is still just a fish. It cannot survive without water. So, does it not depend on the water's mood to survive?"
The final words went on and on, and were like a bolt from the blue, which suddenly woke Yang Luyu up. In an instant, it was as if the clouds had parted and the sky was bright, and his vision suddenly broadened.
Yang Luyu was speechless for a long time, and only let out a sigh after a long time.
"What Jay Chou said is really... insightful and makes people wake up. It seems that I am too petty and far-sighted. I am ashamed..."
It is not so much that I am amazed at these words, but rather that I am amazed that these words actually came from the mouth of a young man like Zhou Dongsheng.
Although I have seen this many times, I am still shocked by Zhou Dongsheng's unexpected words every time.
"Boss Yang, you are being too self-deprecating. Aren't we just learning from each other's strengths and making up for each other's weaknesses? When it comes to technical issues, I know nothing about them. I can only contribute a little bit of my remaining energy to these matters..."
"Only by cooperating with people like Mr. Yang and Mr. Huang can I have a chance to take advantage of the situation. If I fight alone, people like me will only end up dead."
"It is best to describe it in one word, that is... in cahoots with each other!"
Zhou Dongsheng’s words hit the nail on the head, and Yang Luyu couldn’t help but smile knowingly. What a pair of accomplices!
"Since Mr. Jay has been so generous in sharing his knowledge with me, I think I know what to do next. But before that, I need to borrow someone from Mr. Jay..."
Zhou Dongsheng smiled knowingly, "If I'm not mistaken, this person should be... Li Jiaqi?"
"As expected, nothing can be hidden from Jay Chou's discerning eyes. Yes, I think no one is more suitable than him to be the pioneer in raising this banner for the platform!"
Yang Luyu said as a matter of course, after all, he was a talent valued by Zhou Dongsheng, so he must have his outstanding qualities.
In addition, the platform wants to vigorously promote a person to be the leader in the live streaming e-commerce field, so naturally the benefits will not flow to outsiders.
To sum up, Li Jiaqi, who just achieved a single-game sales of over 100 million yuan with Zhou Dongsheng, is naturally the most suitable candidate.
After all, being able to stand in that position is itself a manifestation of strength. Even though he was just an unknown nobody before, it did not affect the result at all.
And having said this, Yang Luyu suddenly realized that the fact that this single live broadcast had generated over 100 million views did not cause any ripples in his heart. Instead, it was just the first piece to fall on the chessboard.
No matter how earth-shattering the battle will be in the future, it all starts with this first piece.
After a lively conversation, Yang Luyu couldn't help but feel that he had benefited a lot. After a few words of greeting, he couldn't wait to hang up the phone, eager to put all his ideas into practice on the chessboard.
Zhou Dongsheng on the other end of the phone no longer felt sleepy after such a fluent conversation. He swept away his sense of powerlessness and became full of energy again in an instant.
It’s good to be young, the recovery ability is simply amazing!
Despite such a loud commotion, the beauty next to him had already woken up quietly. She was lying on her side on the couch, supporting her forehead with one hand. The quilt as thin as a cicada's wing outlined her perfect curves.
A pair of fox eyes like thickened sauce looked at Zhou Dongsheng charmingly, and he waited quietly for Zhou Dongsheng to hang up the phone before speaking quietly.
"As expected, a man who works hard is so charming~"
When their eyes met, the outcome of scoring twice was already doomed.
At this moment, Zhou Dongsheng finally understood what it meant to say "Spring nights are short and the sun rises high, and the king will never hold court again!"
