Chapter 1018 WeChat exerts its strength(1/2)

However, the news that Wu Dong Studio has reached a cooperation with Oriental DreamWorks, and that two veteran movie stars, Bao Guoan and Sun Yanjun, have joined Oriental DreamWorks' Dream Director Project, are so sensational and shocking.

News about "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms", the film with the largest investment in the history of the Chinese film industry, has not diminished.

And as time goes by, the expectations and interest of movie fans in this movie are growing.

There are countless forums on the Internet discussing this movie, its all-star cast, its sky-high production cost of 1 billion, epic war scenes, etc. All the news about this movie has been talked about by countless movie fans.

When many media saw this situation, they naturally would not let it go and immediately focused their reports on the tidbits about the movie.

Unfortunately, due to post-production reasons, the trailer has not yet been released, so the trailer that fans have been clamoring for online has never appeared.

Yang Ming had nothing to do about it. The post-production had been handed over to Zhang Kaile and his subordinates. It would take some time to complete it.

However, he was not idle. He was called over by Mr. Hong to attend the premiere of a movie.

"Qixia"!

A period martial arts movie.

Director: Li Xiaofeng; action designers: Song Ming, Wang He.

Yang Ming searched for information about "Qi Xia" on the Internet. After seeing the information about the movie, he immediately laughed. No wonder Mr. Hong invited him to attend the premiere!

It turns out that this movie was made by a few people who came here with Lu Wansong, and after learning from Oriental DreamWorks, based on the new martial arts style of Oriental DreamWorks.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile. He really wanted to watch this movie.

Let’s see if this movie that these three guys created after returning from Oriental DreamWorks has learned the essence of the new martial arts movies that Yang Ming brought to this generation.

However, just when Yang Ming came back from Zhang Kaile and took a day off, his uncle called him over again with a phone call.

Originally, he really didn't want to go there. Could it be that for a day off, he just wanted to stay quietly at home for a while to relieve his nerves after being exhausted for half a year.

But my uncle said lightly: "The number of WeChat users has exceeded 50 million!"

When Yang Ming heard this, without saying a word, he immediately drove to his uncle's WeChat headquarters in Yanjing.

When he arrived at a business building, he called his uncle, and someone came down and took him to the company.

"Well, you must know that you are the big boss of the company. Now that you have been missing all day, it is all me who is busy. I have suffered a big loss!" After Li Xingyi saw Yang Ming, he immediately shouted pretending to be aggrieved.

When Yang Ming heard this, he also touched his nose a little embarrassed.

After establishing the Oriental Instant Messaging Company for the product WeChat, he has never been to the company. The company has grown from establishment to development, and today is his first time to come to the company.

No wonder my uncle talks about himself here with such a strange look and tone.

"Uncle, isn't it true that those who can do more work!" Yang Ming said calmly, "Besides, I racked my brains to come up with this idea. You can handle other easy things!"

Hearing Yang Ming's words, Li Xingyi almost spat out a mouthful of water. He pointed at Yang Ming, dumbfounded and speechless.

When Yang Ming saw his uncle's appearance, he chuckled, changed the subject, and asked: "Uncle, how are you? What I said was right at the beginning? But you made a lot of money from a business worth hundreds of billions!"

Oriental Instant Messenger, a company with only one product, WeChat, is a joint venture between the two. Yang Ming invested 400 million, accounting for 90% of the shares, and Li Xingyi invested 100 million, accounting for 10% of the shares.

When Li Xingyi heard this, he couldn't help but forget the process of his exhausting work. He immediately became excited, grabbed Yang Ming's arm, then glanced at the company door, and whispered: "Yang Ming, there are already two prominent companies looking for him."

They passed me, they wanted to invest 300 million yuan to buy 30% of the shares, but I didn't even get rid of them."

300 million yuan, 30% shares!

This is equivalent to 100 million yuan.

When Yang Ming heard this figure, he curled his lips with disdain and said, "Our company's registered capital is 500 million yuan. I don't know what these people think."

"That's right!" Li Xingyi also snorted, scorning the two popular companies, "Don't say 300 million, even 3 billion, I won't sell it!"

Hearing what his uncle said, Yang Mingli was happy, looked at Li Xingyi and said deliberately: "I didn't lie to you, uncle!"

At that time, he promised Li Xingyi that if WeChat ran well, its market value would be 100 billion yuan or 300 billion yuan, and there would be absolutely no problems.

When Li Xingyi heard what Yang Ming said, he looked at him with an idiot's eyes. If Yang Ming deliberately scared him, if he didn't want to participate, then he would just play by himself. After being provoked by him, Li Xingyi agreed to invest 1

billion, accounting for 10% of the shares.

Originally, he didn't take WeChat seriously, but no one thought that in just six months, the number of WeChat users would increase so wildly.

WeChat has 50 million users worldwide!

No matter in the past life or in this life, no matter what kind of website or software, if the number of users reaches 50 million, it is an extremely exaggerated thing.

Especially in this life, even if a large part of the 50 million users are Chinese people, the gold content is much higher than in previous lives.

Because in today's world, China is the world's largest consumer market, no matter what industry it is.

Under this circumstance, the market value of WeChat in this life is several times higher than in the previous life.

And because of the strength of the Chinese government in this era, China's global investments do not need to worry about any deliberate suppression from politics. Therefore, after the release of communication and dating software like WeChat, it immediately became popular all over the world and became the most frequently used by countless young people.

Dating software.

As the second heir to the Li family, Li Xingyi is naturally no ordinary person. WeChat now has a huge user base of 50 million, so he is naturally very optimistic about the market value and prospects of this software.

Those venture capital companies want to spend 300 million yuan, which is like buying 30% of the shares of WeChat. It is simply a dream.

The market value of WeChat is increasing every day as the number of users increases.

Li Xingyi is not willing to buy 300 million yuan, not to mention 30% of the shares, even 3%. He knows that when the number of WeChat users exceeds 100 million, he will have the software with the largest user base in the world, even for 1% of the shares.

, also worth hundreds of millions.

Now, when Li Xingyi heard Yang Ming's words, he smiled heartily, patted Yang Ming's shoulder hard and said, "This time, my uncle has benefited from you!"

Although he has single-handedly operated this company with WeChat products from its inception to its inception, he knows that without Yang Ming’s creativity, this company would not exist at all.

Moreover, through Yang Ming's original design and creativity of various functions of WeChat, Yang Ming could still do it by himself even without Li Xingyi.

At that time, I bought 10% of the shares for 100 million yuan. Looking at it now, it is simply a huge profit.

When Yang Ming heard Li Xingyi's emotion, he smiled and shook his head without saying anything. He aspired to movies. WeChat just gave him another channel to promote Oriental DreamWorks. At most, it would increase his wealth by a little bit. When a person's wealth

, when it reaches a certain point, it’s just a data game.

Therefore, he did not put a lot of energy into this aspect, but left it all to his uncle.

"Look at this news. If those venture capital companies read this news comment, I wonder if they would have the nerve to come to me and buy 30% of the shares for 300 million yuan. It is as if our Li family has never seen the money.

Got it!" Li Xingyi obviously still feels resentment towards those venture capital companies.

Although he is the second young master of the Li family, not many people know him outside. Moreover, his property has always been the shares of some companies and he does not have large-scale real estate. Naturally, he is looked down upon by those in the financial world.

Venture capital companies did not expect that their investment in the Internet industry would be rejected by Li Xingyi.

But speaking of it, WeChat currently does not lack development funds.

Half of the initial investment of 500 million yuan has not been used yet!

And now that WeChat has 50 million users, what can’t be done to make money?

Yang Ming took the newspaper from his uncle, then sat down on the sofa and started reading. When he saw the title at the first sight, he couldn't help but perk up.

"WeChat changes society, alienation in closeness."

What a big proposition and eye-catching title.

If Yang Ming hadn't known that WeChat was indeed an application that could change social habits, he would have really thought that the person who wrote this news comment was just trying to please others!

"Nowadays, in the streets, alleys, subways and buses, at the dinner table and even in bed, you can see people with "low heads" everywhere. They are immersed in the world of WeChat and forget about everything. They are dubbed "WeChat Controllers".

The emergence of "WeChat control" is becoming the latest and most noteworthy social and psychological phenomenon - they are "captured" by their mobile phones, holding them when eating, holding them when riding in the car, and never leaving their hands when going to the toilet..."

WeChat seems to constitute the entire life. All communication and entertainment can be realized and achieved on WeChat. Recreation and "partying" on mobile phones take up almost all leisure time. "Posting" and "swiping" day after day, just

Is it a change in the way we socialize?

Whether it’s a dinner with relatives or a gathering of friends, we often see a scene like this: several people sit around a table, but they don’t speak to each other for a long time. They just keep their heads down and fiddle with their mobile phones, constantly texting and voice chatting.

, taking selfies, swiping the screen, absent-mindedly!

In addition to making communication more convenient, WeChat, in a sense, satisfies people's deep-seated psychological needs - to pay attention and be noticed."

In a very profound tone, this news commentary spoke highly of the changes that WeChat, a mobile application, has brought to society. At the same time, it also felt wary of the alienation in interpersonal relationships caused by frantically checking WeChat Moments all day long.

.

After Yang Ming quickly read the article, he felt that it was indeed well written, but that was all.

Even if he doesn't come up with this software, it is estimated that similar software will appear in this world in the future, and he can't control so much.

After reading this news comment, Yang Ming asked about the current development situation of WeChat, and Li Xingyi explained it to Yang Ming in detail.

Unlike previous lives, where WeChat only had a huge influence locally, in this world WeChat has a global presence.

At present, WeChat has 32 different language versions around the world, which has covered most countries in the world. In some other small countries, there is not much need to expand for the time being. Therefore, Li Xingyi has postponed the development of WeChat versions in different languages ​​and instead

Focus on WeChat version updates and maintenance services.

When it came to some professional issues, Li Xingyi called over the next manager responsible for technical development. Then as the questions increased, Yang Ming thought about it and simply held a meeting.

Anyway, it was rare for him to come over this time. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he happened to tell everyone about some successful WeChat operation plans in his previous life.

Subscription account, public account!

These are the next two major functions that WeChat will launch, and they will also be measures for WeChat to start making money.
