What’s Wrong With Me Being a Rich Man?

Chapter 232 Undercurrents

WeChat companies are accumulating strength little by little, whether it is development or management, whether it is competitive or financing contact, there are roughly some signs.

Yu Xing became very busy as a result.

Because he couldn't help but mention the WeChat incident at Bai Xiaosheng's meeting before, his way of dealing with it after self-reflection was to divide the working hours into two sections, get up in the morning and go to the 6th floor, and decide what to do in the afternoon depending on the work situation. Go to the 4th floor.

WeChat now focuses mainly on the development level. Objectively, it does not need to deal with too many things. It just needs to consider all aspects of preparation before the official launch.

He was responsible for Bai Xiaosheng for most of the day, and paid attention to the progress of WeChat for a long time. He worked overtime from time to time. Sometimes he asked Xiaoying to have a meeting at night. The time schedule was very full, but Yu Xing himself was quite happy.

Such dedication almost made me feel ignorant of the Wei and Jin dynasties, and something unexpected made Yu Xing break this state.

He received an interview call from a reporter from Computer World.

"Interview with me? What's the point of interviewing me..." Yu Xing was touched by a sensitive nerve when he heard the other party's self-report. The famous proclamation for the attack on Penguins was published by this magazine.

"Mr. Yu, it's just an interview with your views on penguins." The reporter's voice seemed very gentle.

Yu Xing didn't know if it was a butterfly effect, or if the reporter was collecting material for manifesto, or if it was really just a simple interview, he smiled tentatively and said, "That's even more strange. If you want to interview me, don't ask about my own company situation. Let me talk about other companies, there is nothing to choose from. I still have to work hard, even this time..."

The reporter speeded up his speech and interrupted: "Mr. Yu, we noticed that you talked about the huge pressure on Internet entrepreneurs in "You're the ones". We have recently considered a report on this, so, I really want to know what the truest idea of ​​entrepreneurs is like.”

When Yu Xing heard such an answer, he was probably inseparable from all the answers. "Computer World" was already brewing the famous "Dog Day XX" report.

He pondered for a moment: "If you want to ask this, you shouldn't come to ask me. To be honest, my two entrepreneurial projects from the past year to this year actually have nothing to do with Penguin. What about Baixiaosheng Company now? The special vertical segmentation avoids pressure from penguins in disguise.”

The reporter said unwillingly: "Mr. Yu, but you also said that Bai Xiaosheng encountered Penguin's problem of doing similar business when he was just starting out."

"Yes, but you should still look for companies that face pressure when doing such reports. It is unconvincing to talk about this aspect with deep grudges." Yu Xing talked happily, "I can only prove that as An entrepreneur was indeed asked by investors about the concerns brought by Penguin's multi-faceted development."

"Of course, I am not only an entrepreneur, but also have my own observations of the industry. In fact, this aspect is also clearly stated on the show. I personally hope that it is not just Penguin, but also that the big companies in China are even more powerful. How can I say it? It seems like I’ll be laughing when I talk about my ideals, but this is indeed my idea.”

"But, since you asked, I can give you an investor phone number and you can interview him directly. Their investment may be more likely to feel the situation in the industry than entrepreneurs like me who only focus on a certain direction. ”

Yu Xing did not avoid the problem, but instead talked more rationally and well-foundedly.

He has talked a lot on the show, and if the magazine wants to report it, it can be quoted directly.

The reporter got the call from Liu Jiankai, vice president of Capital Today, and thought it was not bad. Increasing the perspective of investors can indeed expand the industry's attitude towards Penguin.

However, Liu Jiankai was a little confused when he received such a call...

When he heard the reporter express his intention, he couldn't help but complain in his heart. He couldn't imagine that he was a good thing, and he introduced all this kind of bad things. Why didn't the person named Yu call Mr. Xu to the reporter directly?

"You..." Liu Jiankai thought about it and made a request, "Can you be anonymous?"

The reporter agreed readily: "No problem, Mr. Liu."

"Actually, it's a cliché. Penguin is very strong. Its strength comes from its unique ability to unify the traffic in the domestic market. Anyone who gets such a huge traffic as instant messaging will try to exert its magic as much as possible." Liu Jiankai described, "Except for a few e-commerce and search markets, such traffic can achieve some results. This month, I think Penguin will launch its own Weibo again."

"Subjectively, I can understand Penguin's approach, and objectively, this approach does cause trouble for us when looking for investment projects."

"For example, Storm Video, since Penguin released its QQ Video in 2008, Mr. Feng has not had a good sleep. For example, 360. Mr. Zhou once claimed that Penguin will not become a rival to 360 because Penguin is an entertainment company, and In terms of safety, professional companies will focus on solving problems."

"Unfortunately, Mr. Zhou's judgment was proven to be wrong this year, so I don't need to say more about this."

"So, not only entrepreneurs bear the pressure, but we investors are also under pressure and are also confused about where the business boundaries of Penguin's money-making are."

"The old saying goes, water can carry a boat and can also overturn it, but this sentence seems to be invalid for Penguin."

"The commercial market is like big fish eating small fish. I don't think the big fish penguin will let small fish go, but personally..."

Liu Jiankai's mind flashed through the project Yu Xing was incubating and said sincerely: "I hope that penguins can eat hard bones, at least let them think too. Such an Internet company with the highest market value in the world can be more respected."

He paused again after saying this, and said to himself, "Although respect is not worth much."

The reporter asked at this time: "Mr. Liu, will you scold penguins in private?"

Liu Jiankai replied with a smile, "Not many scoldings."

The reporter couldn't help laughing.

This phone interview did not last long, mainly asking about the troubles that investors encountered.

Liu Jiankai finished the call and sighed inexplicably.

In the past half a month, he didn't care about the situation of the new incubation project as he did before, and instead followed the newly contacted project of today's capital. However, after being flirted with this interview, he couldn't help but want to know how the WeChat company was doing.

Two days later, Liu Jiankai did not see the relevant reports of "Computer World". He took the time to pass by Bai Xiaosheng Company, who had crossed half of the city, so he went up to have a cup of tea.

Everyone is familiar with each other and goes straight to the president's office on the sixth floor of Bai Xiaosheng.

Yu Xing is not here.

"Where is Mr. Yu?" Liu Jiankai sat on the sofa, took the tea handed over by Mr. Yu's secretary Zhang Yangxu, and asked this question.

"Mr. Yu is having a meeting on the fourth floor, so come up later." Zhang Yangxu replied.

Liu Jiankai nodded slightly, and just as he was about to speak, he heard another young girl in the office answer more accurately.

"Mr. Yu's meeting will end at five o'clock."

Liu Jiankai looked at the person who spoke with interest and asked, "You are so handsome, what kind of work are you responsible for?"

"Hello, Mr. Liu, I am Mr. Yu's secretary Lin Lingling." The girl replied generously, "I am responsible for tracking technology research and development."

Liu Jiankai was a little surprised and couldn't help but look at Zhang Yangxu. Isn't this Mr. Yu's secretary? Why is there another secretary?

Zhang Yangxu said silently, and he didn't expect... how could even be divided as a secretary job...

Lin Lingling has been in the company for less than a week and she still joins the WeChat company, but she has handled a lot of the boss’s work these two days. If this continues, wouldn’t she become a big secret and herself a little secret?

However, what can I say?

"Are you tracking the technology research and development?" Liu Jiankai changed his mind and guessed most of the time, and became more interested. "Are you going to explain the development situation of WeChat to President Yu?"

Lin Lingling nodded: "Yes, it's mainly about this work." When Zhang Yangxu heard this, he spoke a little sourly: "Then go downstairs."

"President Yu asked me to go upstairs and wait for him." Lin Lingling shrugged and said with a sharp edge, "Zhang Yangxu, I'll just wait here. If you have a job, go and do it. Well, wait until you get off work. Time, you can get off work.”

Zhang Yangxu was furious. It was obvious that I was the one who worked overtime with President Yu first!

Instead, he was a little unconfident. He just occasionally worked overtime with Mr. Yu, and he drove back most of the time, and he followed the flow and went home...

Zhang Yangxu was unwilling to reveal his sadness and tried his best to say: "Lin Lingling, you just arrived at the company. The most important thing now is to handle the work well, don't make mistakes, and don't think about it."

Lin Lingling said coldly: "What is random thoughts?"

The two secretary's eyes were intertwined, and they were unwilling to retreat.

Liu Jiankai looked at this scene with a smile, feeling quite interesting.

At this time, the office door was pushed open and Zhong Zhiling came over to get a document.

The old secret secretary Zhang Yangxu hurriedly found the documents to Mr. Zhong.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

The new secretary Lin Lingling knew that this was the boss’ junior brother, and she also sent the person outside the office tactfully and asked her about her work area.

Liu Jiankai took a sip of tea and couldn't help laughing.

"Mr. Liu, look at her, she is..." Zhang Yangxu lowered his voice and complained, "When can we do things with others by virtue of sex?"

Lin Lingling looks good, young and beautiful, and has a dimples when she smiles.

"Zhang Yangxu, it's not okay to have appearance alone, but if you have both appearance and can match other skills, you can do this in the workplace..." Liu Jiankai said with a smile, "It may be a big bonus."

Zhang Yangxu's face collapsed.

Liu Jiankai comforted him again at this time: "But, I think Mr. Yu is not that kind of person. He must consider his professional ability when choosing this person."

Just as the two were chatting like this, Yu Xing's voice came from outside, and then he pushed the door open and came in.

"Mr. Liu is here." Yu Xing said hello, "Let's have fun together tonight, Xiao Zhang, oh, you go back first, just have Lingling here."

Zhang Yangxu: “…”

He barely showed his value: "Mr. Yu, it's okay. You can eat and drink at night, and it's not convenient to drive. I'll drive."

Yu Xing thought about it and it made sense, so he nodded.

Liu Jiankai glanced at Lin Lingling who was following in. He probably didn't have a driver's license, but he must have arranged this matter.

He was about to speak, but there was another step behind him, and then a person he knew came in.

"No need to introduce it, Mr. Li, Mr. Liu." Yu Xing stretched out his hand, "Mr. Li is very interested in the WeChat company's projects."

Liu Jiankai was surprised to see that this was Li Shanyou, CEO of Cool6.com. Oh no, former CEO Li Shanyou.

He blurted out: "Mr. Li, why are you mingling with Mr. Yu?"

Li Shanyou laughed.

Yu Xing stared at Liu Jiankai with anger.

"No, I mean..." Liu Jiankai asked for help, "I mean, haven't Mr. Li just left Ku6.com? Why would he think about seeing a job at WeChat company? Uh, this, um..."

He couldn't find a particularly suitable statement at once.

"Mr. Liu is not optimistic about the development of WeChat companies." Yu Xing explained concisely.

Li Shanyou said humorously: "So coincidental, it's the same as me."

Yu Xing nodded, and there would not be many people optimistic about it.

Liu Jiankai breathed a sigh of relief. It sounded like he was just interested in the WeChat project, not to participate in it.

"Mr. Li, if you have such an opportunity to observe the death of a mobile Internet project at close range, my company's options will not distinguish you. You think you are worth a month, and you can tell me the number." Yu Xing seemed to be right when he spoke. Slightly searched, generous.

Liu Jiankai was stunned, things were still in the same direction.

Li Shanyou pondered.

"Mr. Li, don't consider that you have never done a job on mobile Internet, don't consider that your previous job was not that good, and don't take the project of being dissatisfied." Yu Xing helped give a reason, "You are just Come and play, just say a number."

Li Shanyou said "tsk": "Can you still recruit people?"

Yu Xing turned around and asked Liu Jiankai: "Mr. Liu, is there any problem with what I said?"

Liu Jiankai ignored the joke and took the opportunity to ask confusion: "Mr. Li, how did you think about WeChat? Uh, I was really surprised that you appeared here."

Although Li Shanyou resigned from Ku6.com and was still a bit dirty in the future, his resume and ability are fine, and he is undoubtedly Yu Xing's senior in terms of qualifications.

After learning about the situation from the news and forums, Liu Jiankai's judgment was that Li Shanyou would still start a business, or try to be an angel investor, but he never expected to see him here today.

"It's what Mr. Yu said. I don't like WeChat, but I'm curious about the mobile Internet project." Li Shanyou said seriously, "Mr. Yu joked with me yesterday, saying 'Subway entrepreneur', and saying that the first lesson of mobile Internet is all Starting from the observation of subway passengers, I also feel that the mobile Internet is not the future, it is already in progress."

He has been in Shanghai for three days. He not only watched WeChat's development work, but also had some communication with Yu Xing. In addition to his curiosity about the project, the latest thing that shakes him is the "subversion" angle of mobile Internet.

The WeChat company is about to subvert the biggest fish in the market. Such arrogance or passion is somewhat infected by him who has just walked out of the mud pond. He couldn't help but feel thinking. What's the big deal about this young man being so passionate about playing with him?

Li Shanyou said again at this time: "What's more, WeChat companies are going to get a new round of money from Kestrel, and they can live for a few months."

Liu Jiankai looked at Li Shanyou, and then looked at Yu Xing. From talking before the New Year to building after the New Year to building now, the scale of the technical team exceeded that of ordinary entrepreneurial projects, the frequency of financing exceeded that of ordinary entrepreneurial projects, and even the management team began to surpass that of ordinary entrepreneurial projects. Ordinary category…

You can only see from the pulling of Guiai.com that Yu Xing has a strong ability to piece together projects. Unexpectedly, he can be so strong after he has accumulated it. He has put it together and put it together. The company has vaguely quickly got on track and is about to take shape. !

Liu Jiankai thought about the interview he had received before, and suddenly felt a sense of absurdity. There was a sense of undercurrent under the iceberg of Penguin...
