I was reborn and stayed in school to lie down. I really don’t want to roll anymore!

Songjiang University of Technology, will meet a coffee shop.

Jiang Hao sat by the window on the second floor, holding a cup of hazelnut latte in his hand.

I was tasting it while looking at my phone.

He has recently been particularly fond of this type of coffee in his shop.

Even though we know that the so-called hazelnut flavor is just based on hazelnut syrup, not real hazelnuts.

But the coffee tastes really good and he loves it very much.

The log-colored table and low single sofa match the overall log-colored style, making the newly renovated second floor area simple and elegant.

One of the walls is made into a whole wall of cabinets.

There are some famous books on it, as well as some small figures and some exquisite ornaments.

However, customers are more accustomed to drinking coffee and sitting on the first floor, and relatively fewer people go up to the second floor.

"Teacher Jiang, the newly renovated second floor here looks great!"

Holding a cup of coffee in his hand, a man who looked to be in his early fifties walked steadily up to him.

Her hair was fluffy, as if it had just been washed and blow-dried, and there was a bit of gray in the bun.

He wore a long-sleeved black and white plaid shirt with a sleeveless gray vest on the outside, and ordinary black trousers on the bottom.

How come he couldn't wear the same plaid shirt like Professor Zheng in his previous life?

No matter how you dress, you will just look like a programmer, not a gentleman!

Every time he saw Professor Zheng, the first thing Jiang Hao admired was Professor Zheng’s outfit.

It is already a success for a man of this age if he can make people feel not greasy, not to mention making him feel handsome.

If Professor Zheng takes care of his hair a little more at night, it would look even more stunning.

I don’t know how attractive he must have been when he was young and teaching at a university, but he must have been at least at the level of Ren Yixin.

"Haha! Professor Zheng, this is my first time on the second floor too."

"It's decorated quite cleanly, but it doesn't match the style of the first floor. I'll take advantage of the summer vacation to renovate the first floor as well."

The first floor of Jiangyu Coffee is in a modern black and white style, without any major features.

Especially since it has been renovated for several years, the white walls have turned yellow and there are graffiti in many places.

The headquarters of the "Jiang Yu" coffee shop chain in Matsue City!

This investment is necessary. It may not be luxurious, but at least it has to have the feeling of a head office!

"Professor Zheng, is this your new watch?"

As soon as he sat down and put the coffee in his hand on the table, the watch on his wrist attracted his attention.

Compared to Professor Zheng’s outfit, the orange strap of this watch is so eye-catching that it is hard not to be attracted by it.

Professor Zheng laughed at this moment.

Like an old child, she raised her wrist and shook it in front of his eyes.

"Isn't this a nice watch? A new model from Jaeger-LeCoultre."

“Is this watch expensive?”

It is no longer the time when the two first met while invigilating the CET-4 and CET-6 exams. Jiang Hao and Professor Zheng have long had a close relationship.

They are quite familiar with each other, and Professor Zheng isn't the type of person who likes to show off, right?

Is this watch really that expensive?

Jiang Hao himself doesn't understand it anyway. His most expensive watch now is the Rolex that Professor Zheng gave him after Totoro successfully raised funds.

"The price? It's not expensive, probably more than 70,000."

That’s not expensive. As soon as Jiang Hao’s first reaction came out, he couldn’t help but reflect on himself.

Professor Zheng is as nonchalant as he was back then, and he himself seems to have unknowingly gotten used to the growth of his wealth.

"I don't really like this brand, but this one is pretty nice, and my daughter brought it to me when she returned home last month."

No wonder she was showing off to him. This wasn't just showing off! She was simply showing off her own daughter!

"Has Mr. Jiang bought a watch recently?"

"Me? I don't."

"The watch I wear most often is the one you gave me."

Although he now has no problem spending watches worth tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of dollars.

But after all, he is not used to this kind of consumption. Even though he doesn't think the price is expensive, he is not yet at the point where he would take the initiative to buy it.

He has a general feeling about watches, but is more interested in good graphics cards and computer accessories.

"Professor Zheng, why did you invite me here this time?"

The two of them had met many times in the past two years, but this was the first time that Professor Zheng had specifically asked him to meet today.

It was because he had an appointment with Professor Zheng that he declined Lei Zhao's suggestion to go for a drink.

"It's just that we haven't talked for a long time!"

"I want to talk to you again about Totoro Technology. Is everything going well for the company?"

Talking about chinchilla technology?

If I remember correctly, except after the A round of financing, Professor Zheng never took the initiative to talk to him about the development of Totoro.

Why do you suddenly want to talk about it today? Is it because you are worried about the current internal reshuffle of the entire live broadcast industry?

Jiang Hao was a little confused, but he started introducing it anyway.

"As for development, everything is going well. Currently, the company has launched a campaign to attract new users to download."

"Although the money was spent quickly, the development was also rapid. The data in the past few months have been in a period of explosive growth."

Even though the number of new downloads from this activity is decreasing, it is still much faster than the original natural growth.

From the beginning of the event to now, the number of daily and monthly active users of the website has doubled.

Even the number of simultaneous online users, which is already difficult to increase, has also increased by more than 40%.

"Professor Zheng, are you worried about the current competition within the entire live broadcast industry?"

Hearing Jiang Hao's blunt words, Professor Zheng sat up straight from the back of the low sofa.

He nodded, his expression turning serious.

"In fact, you should be able to see that in this competition, our platform is supporting all other platforms to cultivate the entire live broadcast market."

“Although many small platforms have closed down recently, this is all the result of competition.”

"There will be more closures in the future. According to my current estimate, in the end, only Totoro Live and Huya Live will be able to complete the monopoly."

It is impossible for one company to dominate the market alone, and domestic government laws do not allow this.

The final result that Jiang Hao anticipated was that their Totoro platform would take the lead and occupy 70% to 80% of the users in the entire industry.

Huya accounts for 10% to 20% of the users, and the remaining small platforms are barely surviving.

At present, everything is developing as he expected.

"So, everything is going well for Totoro Live?"

“If it continues to develop at this level, how long will it take to be listed?”

Professor Zheng is very quick-witted today! He was just talking about industry development and competition, but now he is asking directly about the listing situation.

"Preparatory work is already underway, and the listing process will start in the second half of the year."

"If everything goes really well, it will be listed at the end of the second half of the year."

"Under normal circumstances, it should be available in the second half of next year."
