My 1999
Chapter 864 iMusic
Dong Dong…….
After knocking on the door, Lu Hui walked in.
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Xie, Mr. Ma and the others are here."
"Bring them in." Xu Liang said.
Not long after, Bonima and Zeng Liqing walked in under the leadership of Lu Hui.
"Chairman, Mr. Xie."
The two said quickly.
Xu Liang smiled and nodded.
Xie Wen smiled and said: "Mr. Xu has always praised Mr. Ma in front of me for his calmness and honesty and his extraordinary ability; Mr. Zeng is hearty and generous and treats others with enthusiasm. When I met today, I found that both of them are indeed elites.
I am relieved that Hongmeng can cooperate with you. "
"Thank you. You and Hongmeng are both seniors in the Internet industry. We will learn more from you and Hongmeng in the future." Zeng Liqing said quickly.
Bonima also nodded in agreement.
The current Penguin and Hongmeng are so far apart that they are completely incomparable.
"Everyone, please sit down."
Under Xu Liang's greeting, they both sat down.
"Was it a smooth journey here?" Xu Liang asked with a smile.
"With your arrangement, we had a good rest." Zeng Liqing said quickly.
When socializing outside, he is basically the one who takes the initiative. Bonima rarely speaks unless he encounters a critical issue.
"That's good."
Xu Liang went straight to the point.
"Hongmeng and Penguin are the two best pan-entertainment companies in China. I happen to have a large number of shares in both companies, which will inevitably cause internal friction.
So we plan to join forces.
Hongmeng will divest all departments except Hongmeng China Game Company and merge them into Penguin Interactive Entertainment Division.
What are your opinions on this? "
Although he asked this question, Xu Liang's focus was mainly on Bonima.
After all, he is the one who is really in charge within Penguin.
Facing the concerned eyes, Bonima quickly said: "I agree with your strategy. If we can acquire the business of Hongmeng Entertainment China Company and join forces, it will be a good thing for both Penguin and Hongmeng."
Xu Liang nodded.
I felt relieved.
Although he knew that if Bonima could come to the capital, this matter would be half successful, but Xu Liang was really relieved when he heard him nodding in person.
A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. As long as Bonima compromised, the management of Penguin would truly fall into his hands.
Although he has no intention of actually getting involved in Penguin's daily management, whether he does or not is another matter.
“I’m giving you a year to integrate and get familiar with it.
During this year, Penguin cannot relax its overseas development, especially in Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia. When you complete the integration of Hongmeng Entertainment’s Chinese business, I will also integrate Hongmeng Entertainment’s overseas business into Penguin. "
Zeng Liqing and Bonima were shocked. They looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes.
As competitors before, they know Hongmeng's pan-entertainment business very well.
Compared with China, Hongmeng’s overseas pan-entertainment industry is truly huge.
"Mr. Xu, does it include iMusic?"
Ponima asked expectantly.
"certainly."
The affirmative answer made the two of them instantly happy.
The most valuable asset of Hongmeng Entertainment is of course Hongmeng Games, but second only to Hongmeng Games is Hongmeng Music Network (iMusic).
After annexing the five major music websites of Universal Music Network, Hongmeng Music Network (iMusic) instantly surpassed Apple’s ‘iTunes’ and became the world’s largest online music website with Universal Music’s largest music copyright library in the world.
It currently has 390 million registered users and 56 million paying users worldwide.
In the five months of 2005, the total revenue was US$336 million, and the total revenue for the year is expected to exceed US$700 million.
And with the rapid growth of global Internet users, as well as the growth of MP3 users and mobile phone users, Hongmeng Music Network's revenue is also growing rapidly.
If only this promising music website could truly integrate with Penguin.
Then Penguin can suddenly become a small giant in the global pan-entertainment field.
At least when it comes to online music, they are undoubtedly top notch.
“Don’t just look at Hongmeng Music Network, Hongmeng Literature Network (ibook) is also the trump card of Hongmeng’s pan-entertainment business.
It is the world's largest online literature website.
Over the past five years, it has accumulated more than 130,000 works, with 89 million registered users and 17 million paying users worldwide. Although its revenue is not as good as Hongmeng Music, it will definitely exceed US$180 million this year.
In addition to making money, the real value of Hongmeng Literature Network lies in copyright.
Games, movies, comics, animations, etc., almost all pan-entertainment models require literature as the underlying support.
With Hongmeng Literature’s rich and growing copyright library, other pan-entertainment businesses will never lack good content.
With literary support, pan-entertainment is a complete industry chain.
You should support the development of iBook more in the future. "Xu Liang warned.
Bonima and Zeng Liqing nodded repeatedly.
The revenue of Hongmeng Literature exceeds the total revenue of Penguin. Such fat meat must be provided well.
"The ones that are relatively underdeveloped are Hongmeng Animation and Hongmeng Film and Television. However, in the past five years, Hongmeng has also laid a certain foundation, and a series of excellent animation works such as "Death", "Gintama" and "Piaomiao Journey" have emerged.
Film and television dramas also have a certain foundation in the East and Southeast Asian markets.
In the future, Penguin can rely on the foundation laid by Hongmeng to continue to cultivate the East Asian and Southeast Asian markets. "
After a pause, he smiled and swept across the faces of the two people, and then fixed on Ponyma.
"If you are strong enough in the future, you can also expand into the European and American markets."
After leaving time for the two to digest.
"In the next two or three years, Penguin's main tasks are two points.
First, continue to expand the company's share in the Internet social market.
Second, while digesting and absorbing Hongmeng's pan-entertainment assets, become one of the world-class pan-entertainment industry giants.
Specifically in terms of business.
QQ, Mobile QQ, QQ Space, the three major platforms are the focus of development, especially QQ Space, which should be focused on development.
Portal websites, virtual telecommunications, and wireless businesses have limited potential, so there is no need to allocate too many resources.
The real future of Penguin is pan-entertainment supported by community websites.
However, after absorbing Hongmeng Entertainment's business, Penguin's pan-entertainment industry chain is still not complete, and it lacks the "sports" business.
After you go back, you should carefully examine the sports channels of Sina, NetEase, and Sohu, and develop Penguin's own sports business. ”
At this stage, sports business is in the form of forums and some small videos, and there is no way to broadcast online.
The Internet speed is too slow.
Just plan ahead, and don't get involved in the expensive broadcasting rights for the game for the time being.
"Okay, that's all I want to say. Mr. Xie will contact you for the specific negotiations."
Ponima, who has not spoken much, said solemnly.
"Mr. Xu, thank you for your trust in Penguin. We will definitely work hard to integrate Hongmeng Entertainment and live up to your expectations."
Xu Liang smiled and said, "Ponima, we have known each other for almost five years from 2000 to now.
We know each other well enough in five years.
You are a very good professional manager and entrepreneur.
This is why I am willing to hand over Hongmeng assets to you.
Work hard and don't let me down. "
Ponima nodded vigorously, looking like a man who dies for his confidant.
No wonder he is like this.
The gift package thrown by Boss Xu this time is too big.
"Okay, you guys talk. I won't participate. Tell me when you have the result. "
After saying that, he patted Ponyma's shoulder and turned to leave the room.
"Mr. Xu, Penguin now also involves portal websites, Weibo, blogs and emails, which have a lot of overlap with Sina's business. The two companies can also conduct in-depth integration." Lu Hui smiled.
"You are smart. But now is not the time, let's talk about it later when there is a chance. "
Xu Liang said with a smile.
Now that Sina has just gone public, it is a time of great success.
If Penguin is used as the main body to acquire Sina, the latter will definitely not be willing.
The difficulty of integration has increased exponentially.
This is not conducive to the growth of Penguin.
It is best to wait until Penguin develops and the decline of portal website business has become a general trend, which is the best time to promote the merger of the two.
Even the integration of Hongmeng Entertainment caused internal conflicts, and only after the separation of Hongmeng Games did Xie Wen and other management agree.
So, opportunities are very important.
After leaving the company, Xu Liang drove to the private courtyard behind Sixi Building.
This three-entry courtyard originally belonged to An Kaiyue, and it became empty after the latter went to Singapore.
However, Xu Liang has been arranging people to clean and maintain it.
As soon as I came to the yard, I heard bustling laughter.
A little guy wearing open-crotch pants, with a chubby face, who was fiddling with a large Monkey King doll in his hand, his eyes lit up and rushed over with two short legs.
"Dad. "
Xu Liang smiled, squatted down, and gently hugged him in his arms.
"Yuanbao, do you miss your daddy?"
"Yes."
"Dad misses you too."
After kissing the little guy's forehead, he picked him up.
The child he and An Kaiyue had was born in February last year. He is his third son. Now he is one year and four months old, strong and can run.
"Xu Liang is here."
An Jianguo, who was watching the child nearby, hurried over to greet him.
After nodding, "Dad, where is Kaiyue?"
"In the backyard, her aunt and her family are here."
He understood.
"I'll go see."
When they came to the living room in the backyard, six or seven people were sitting or standing, talking and laughing.
When An Kaiyue heard the door open, her eyes lit up.
"Husband, you're here. "
Said, he quickly stood up and greeted him.
Everyone heard the voice and saw Xu Liang coming in, and they stood up at the same time.
After nodding to An Kaiyue, his eyes turned.
"Mom, aunt, uncle..."
After calling a circle, his eyes fell on Yang Mi at the back.
The girl was wearing a light blue short-sleeved T-shirt with a slim fit, which made the fabric fit closely to the skin.
It made the plump headlights particularly dazzling.
The lower body was wearing blue denim shorts, and the straight and round legs were white and shiny, tender and watery, making people want to play with them.
Due to the presence of too many people, Xu Liang just glanced at them briefly and didn't look at them more.
After greeting each other, everyone sat down.
"I want to find my aunt. Aunt, hug me."
The little guy who was originally sitting in Xu Liang's arms began to get restless.
