My Son, You Just Entered Elementary School, How Can You Become The Richest Person?
Chapter 164
"Mr. Meg, you go slowly. "
Pony, you're a smart guy, and I hope you'll give serious consideration to my proposal. "
Thank you, Mr. Meg, I need time to think. At
the door of the company, Ma Huaten saw off Mr. Meg from NPX, exhaled sullenly, and returned to the company.
The face was full of tangles.
Seeing his expression, a group of employees who were still excited suddenly understood
that the situation was not optimistic, but they still couldn't help asking: "Old Ma, how
is it?" "How is the discussion, I heard you say that you have to consider it, has the other party
opened conditions?" "What conditions have been opened?"
"..."Although everyone actually knows that the situation is probably not good, they still can't help but ask.
No way.
The company is in terrible shape.
And one thing to say, those investors were too lazy to come before, and some didn't even bother to open the conditions when they came, but this time someone opened the conditions.
However, when Ma Huateng just shook his head:
"The valuation is 5 million meters, and they are willing to invest 8 million, but they want to account for 80% of the shares..."
Everyone scolded angrily, and even felt that the foreign friend before was here to mess with their mentality.
But scolding is scolding.
After scolding, those who should be worried have to worry:
"This is the first time, these capitals eat people and don't spit out bones, and they fall out of the eyes one by one." "
No way, investment is not charity after all, how brilliant the previous Mi Guo Online was, it wasn't that a lot of investors were killed, and now everyone is very cautious."
"Understanding is understanding, but what are we going to do now, every day we drag on, our situation is even worse, the servers are almost at the limit.
"We're running out of time.
In the blink of an eye, the originally vigorous and thriving office once again became a little dead.
Even Ma Huateng, who has always led everyone, is also sad at this moment:
"It's really not good, I'll talk to IDG again, maybe they are willing to invest more."
"I'm afraid it's not very likely. Chen Yidan shook his head:
"I have actually contacted them before, but they have made it clear that they will refuse to invest in us unless we come up with profitable results."
"They even said that if someone wants to invest, you have to communicate with them first, and I think they may want to sell their shares." "
That's... What about Li Gongzi of Xiangjiang?" Ma Huateng asked again.
"I'm afraid it's even worse. Chen Yidan shook his head again and dispelled Ma Huateng's thoughts:
"If IDG is still on the sidelines, Xiangjiang's Li Gongzi is more anxious, he didn't have much confidence in us, and this year, this Li Gongzi is fully committed to Xiangjiang Telecom."
"I received news that he is currently planning to sell all non-core projects, and even borrowed 18 billion meters from the bank, and invested heavily in Xiangjiang Telecom.
"This means that it is absolutely impossible to find Li Gongzi to pursue the investment, and even now, he is probably trying to find a way to sell our shares." "
This....
Chen Yidan's words made the already gloomy atmosphere fall to the bottom in an instant.
Ma Huateng's heart also sank.
Investors on both sides obviously don't trust Penguin anymore, and it is absolutely impossible to chase the investment, let alone reinvest.
This is to add insult to injury!"
I think we should still discuss how to find a profitable direction. "Someone proposed.
But it was quickly retorted:
"Everyone knows that we have to find a way to make a profit, but the problem is, we have discussed this issue many times, but isn't the result the same?" "
The whole world is looking for a profit direction for the Internet, but in fact, we don't have any profit model in the live chat category to refer to.
"Yes, search engines can make money by bidding on searches, and portals can make money by driving ads, but what can we do
?" "Maybe we can increase the number of ads within Penguin?" someone asked.
"No!"
Ma Huateng shook his head directly:
"Penguin is a chat software, and the reason why it is popular is because we wholeheartedly provide users with good online chat services.
"What's more, our user side is different from the portal, there is no place to add ads at all, if you forcibly add ads, you can't make much money, and it is easy to be disgusted by netizens."
"If you can't make money through advertising, how can you make money?"
Profitability is a big issue.
And this problem, at present, is still a little difficult for everyone to solve.
There was a kind of distress for everyone.
In the end, Xu Chenye, who was still in charge of operation planning, put forward his own ideas:
"I look overseas, but there are projects similar to opening subscription services, perhaps... Can we learn from this model?
" "Open a subscription service?" Ma Huateng narrowed his eyes: "Tell me in detail?" "
Some time ago, there was an Internet company in the United States that is mainly engaged in network media and launched a special subscription service.
"Users can become a member of the company through a paid subscription, enjoy special exclusive news feeds, and follow news feeds.
"I'm wondering, can we also get something like this
?" Everyone pondered for a while, but soon everyone shook their heads:
"We are chat software, what can be the use of subscription services?" "We
don't push information, users mainly chat with people, such a subscription service seems to have nothing to do with our instant messaging."
"You don't have to learn from them to push the news, is it possible, we can add some privileges?" Xu Chenye proposed.
But in the same way, everyone shook their heads in the same way:
"Increasing privileges and distinguishing players from each other, isn't that looking for
scolding?" "Even if we are not afraid of scolding, but how to distinguish it, can we still restrict users from speaking, and only member users can send messages
?" "Or, our member users have a lower message delay rate?"
"Isn't this nonsense?"
It doesn't work, and I think we still have to learn the advertising model, which should be a good route. Everyone
discussed it one after another, and they were not too optimistic about the so-called subscription service.
Xu Chenye scratched his head, also a little helpless.
He just has an idea, and he has no idea how to operate it, or even whether he can operate it.
It was Ma Huateng, but his eyes narrowed at this time.
The words "subscription service
!" and "open membership!"
attracted his attention and made him have a flash of inspiration in his mind.
However, before he could catch this aura, the mobile phone in his arms rang, interrupting his train of thought.
Ma Huateng glanced at it, a little strange.
The number is a landline from Yanjing, but it's an unfamiliar number.
After thinking about it, Ma Huateng still answered the phone.
And the first sentence of this phone call made Ma Huateng's cold heart heat up again:
"Hello, is it Mr. Ma Huateng of Penguin Network Technology Company
?" "This is Yuanxiu Investment, my name is Luo Xiang, may I ask if your company is interested in accepting our investment recently?"
Pony, you're a smart guy, and I hope you'll give serious consideration to my proposal. "
Thank you, Mr. Meg, I need time to think. At
the door of the company, Ma Huaten saw off Mr. Meg from NPX, exhaled sullenly, and returned to the company.
