The richest man starts from a street stall

Chapter 296
Although Chen Shi's English novel only contains a few hundred words, there are still many readers willing to buy it.

There are also media reporters interviewing passers-by on Bujie.

Reporter: "Handsome guy, do you know that Internet writer Chen Shi is planning to release an English novel?"

Passerby A with small pimples: "Sorry, I don't read novels. But I know Chen Shi. He can also write English novels? I really don't know."

Passerby B who is like a middle school student: "I just realized, isn't it a hot topic these days? I heard that the writing is very good. My mother won't let me read novels. I read Dou Po secretly. But as a middle school student, it's really You can try to buy a copy and read it boldly."

Passerby C, a girl with thick foundation: "Hi, hello everyone (greeting with a smile, seriously facing the camera), I am a cute little white rabbit, my XX platform anchor number is 94438, everyone is welcome to follow me. Hey, beautiful reporter sister, don’t leave, you just said brother Chen Shi, of course I know, of course I know the English novels he wrote, everyone is welcome to come to room 94438 to discuss together. Oh, don’t leave, I hate it! "

A passer-by with a somewhat demonic appearance: "Worth's Dot? Oh, you're talking about an English novel, and the European clothes are dead (of course), I'm a die-hard fan of Chen Shi, even if I don't understand it, I will pay for it." Buy a copy, besides, my English level is quite high. Don’t ask me why, a handsome unmarried man like me (tidy up his hair) is not short of money, let me introduce myself”

The reporter had to leave. Who was the interviewer here? Did I come to the wrong place? I wiped the sweat from my forehead: "Brother who didn't look good just now, what the hell? Probably need to add subtitle translation."

As the center of public opinion, Chen Shi is used to being noticed.

As the end of December approached, Chen Shi asked for leave from school and came to Shanghai to participate in Qihang Group's annual development report meeting, which is the writer's annual meeting.

The writers’ annual meeting (the actual time will be postponed) is a combination of Qihang’s annual report + writer’s meeting + symposium and interview + free exchange meeting, etc., from 09:30 in the morning to [-] or [-] in the afternoon, just one day.

Shenshi Group also has an annual meeting, but it plans to hold it a week before the New Year holiday. There will be too many meetings and it will be too much trouble for employees.

Moreover, most of the employees will definitely attend Shenshi Group's annual meeting, and the store may be closed for half a day.

Once a year, do not want employees to be absent due to work.

The night before the writers' annual meeting, Chen Shi came to Shanghai, and went straight to the hotel where the annual meeting was held after having breakfast at the hotel the next day.

Qihang Group has 125 platinum writers, 5 master writers, and many LV[-] writers.

Most of the platinum writers and masters have participated in the annual meeting, which is an annual meeting, and they don't want to miss it. It is also an opportunity to find cooperation.

The invited LV5 writers are all very powerful and well-known old writers. After counting, there are about [-] writers who participated in the annual meeting.

In addition, the guests attending the annual meeting are mainly publishing houses, film and television companies, media, etc. that have cooperated with Qihang Group.

Chen Shi came to the designated hotel, went to the lobby on the third floor of the hotel where the annual meeting was held, handed over the invitation letter to the registrants, wrote down his name, took the personal pen name tag submitted by the staff, and put it on the clothes on the left chest. Entered the venue.

"Hey, this guy is so handsome! He looks familiar."

"Look at his personal chest emblem. It turns out to be Jiangnan Xueye. Come on, the local tyrant brother is here!"

"Wow, it's Chen Shi!"

Chen Shi is wearing a deep purple wool coat today, black pants and leather shoes, and a blue half-high round-neck wool underwear inside. Under his 183 figure, he looks very slender. He is a little fresh meat star. It is extremely dazzling among writers who are not high.

In addition, he was worth tens of billions, and he was extremely topical. As soon as he stepped into the venue, he detonated everyone present, and there were a lot of discussions.

Editor Xiaomi had met Chen Shi, and she also knew when Chen Shi had just arrived, so she went over to receive him personally.

Xiaomi is usually pretty and lively, but when she saw Chen Shi, she still couldn't control her temper. She felt that his aura was too great, so she walked up to him and said hello: "Master, you are getting more and more handsome!"

"No matter how handsome he is, he is having dinner under your management, it's very lively!" Chen Shi didn't expect so many people, and felt that he might have come late.

"It's getting more lively every year, and I'm afraid you won't come!"

"If you promise to come, you have to come."

"Let's go, I'll introduce you to some big guys, of course, they can't compare to you."

"I'm a latecomer, boss, keep a low profile." Chen Shi said modestly.

There were also media reporters at the scene, but they were all partners of Qihang Group, and some were reporters from the group. Before the free time in the afternoon, they could not interview writers casually.Of course, unless I get my permission.

Chen Shi followed Xiaomi, and when he met writers or editors that Xiaomi knew, he introduced them to Chen Shi one by one.

Some people knew Chen Shi, and they also took the initiative to strike up a conversation, making them familiar.

Publishers and film and television companies saw that Chen Shi was the most active and enthusiastic. After a while, Chen Shi received dozens of business cards and his pockets were full.

Of course, Chen Shi would also send his own business card, but he only brought twenty business cards, and they were all delivered in a short time.

His business card doesn't have many titles, just one, but it's very impressive, that is, Chairman of the Shenshi Group, and his pen name is Jiangnan Xueye.

The page is concise and elegant, but not simple.

Chen Shi also basically knew some great writers. Some writers may be more introverted, or they may be a little timid to greet Chen Shi, but they don't know each other.

The report will officially start when the hour hand turns to 09:30.

Group executives such as the chief editor and vice president of Qihang Group took the stage to speak in turn.

It is mainly to report performance, how much annual income, how much net profit, and the key point is how much it has increased year-on-year.

Due to the absence of piracy, the Group achieved a revenue of 16 billion yuan in 162, with a net profit of 25 billion yuan, and copyright operating income surged 342.0% year-on-year to 44.2 billion yuan.

After all, online reading fees are the bulk of revenue, accounting for 112 billion yuan.Chen Shi sat in the front row and listened carefully. Compared with his own company, the net profit of last month alone was about 20 billion yuan, of which physical books contributed more than 4 million yuan.

For the year, the company has not released the overall data. It is estimated that the total revenue in 16 will reach 110 billion yuan, but the net profit will reach a terrifying 46 billion yuan.

Qihang Group is valued at 700 billion yuan. If it is estimated based on the net profit value premium, then the market value of Shenshi Group is over [-] billion yuan.

Finally, one of the vice presidents concluded: "Qihang Group will use content as the driving force to carry out the layout of the entire industry chain, and open up the entire IP industry chain in a group-like way: from upstream incubation and cultivation, to expanding the influence of works; to strengthening its own The production strength and monetization level, the diversified development of Yingyouyou, and the creation of derivative products and the operation of virtual idols will maximize the value of IP with a full-link and integrated ecological closed loop.”

"The digital content industry has entered the era of 'Content Connection 1.0' from the 2.0 era of extensive management and one-way flow, and the mining of IP value has also shifted from short-term development to long-term development."

After several high-level executives have finished speaking, representatives of writers from various channels will also come to the stage to express themselves.

Those who can speak on stage are platinum writers.

The old Platinum Master Watermelon said that Qihang should pay attention to the content and user experience. Advertisement must pay attention to the target and cannot be placed randomly for money. For example, if a certain number of advertisements pop up in the bookstore recently, readers are very disgusted and directly uninstall the app.

After Chen Shi heard it, he felt that Xigua was very right. He admired him for daring to tell the truth. When he finished speaking, he took the lead in applauding, and the others followed suit.

The vice president in charge of advertising, when Xigua said this, his expression was not very good, and Chen Shi took the lead in applauding.

But these higher-ups, there is nothing they can do with these platinum gods.The relationship between Qihang and these great gods is only cooperation, not affiliation.

Especially Chen Shi, he has risen now, even if he leaves Qihang, the electronic subscription will be worse at most, but Qihang will be cold without Chen Shi, and their high-level positions will not be stable.

Representatives of several platinum writers came to the stage to give speeches, each of them took only two to three minutes to thank Qihang Group, and then made some suggestions to Qihang Group.

Finally, the newcomer Wang Chenshi will also speak on stage.

In the past, these platinum masters were still very nervous when facing hundreds of people.

Chen Shi has seen big scenes, he has a big heart, he is very confident and elegant, and there is no trace of tension in him.

Hundreds of people saw Chen Shi stepping handsomely onto the stage, and everyone in the audience knew him. In the past six months, he has been very popular and the most topical, and he has frequently been the center of public opinion on various online platforms.
