My 1999

Xu Liang was on the phone with Qu Guangyun, the president of Hongmeng Xiangjiang Company.

"Mr. Xu, our 'Search Monopoly' activity is very popular. After three months of operation, it has already had 3.8 million registered users, established an index database of 150 million times, and logged in 19 million times a day. It has become the most popular activity in Greater China. search engine."

"You have done a good job, and the "Search Monopoly Prize Quiz" activity will continue."

"yes."

"How is the game business developing?"

"Through the search content page game channel to attract traffic, "Millennium", "Legend 1 Overlord War" and "Red Moon" currently have 2.17 million registered users, and 150,000 are online at the same time.

The most popular is "Millennium", with 90,000 people online at the same time.

The current daily profit is 470,000, but there is still a lot of room for growth. "

It was pretty much what Xu Liang expected.

Greater China, Hong Kong, Macau, Wanwan, Singapore, and Malaysia are mostly economically developed areas and are often exposed to high-quality foreign games.

Although "Legend" and "Red Moon" have excellent gameplay, the picture quality is too poor; in comparison, "Millennium", which was developed by absorbing the shortcomings of Legend, is much better.

"Hongmeng Music Network currently has more than one million users and a monthly revenue of 170,000 Huaxia coins, which is currently unable to cover the investment.

The number of downloads of the website has exceeded 890,000, and the feedback is generally good. It is still in the investment stage.

Hongmeng Game Hall has 1.82 million users. It is currently contacting some game companies in Xiangjiang and Wanwan to win their distribution contracts and sharing agreements. No cooperation has been reached yet.

The encyclopedia business currently has 170,000 entries, 230,000 answers, and 390,000 pictures have been indexed. Hongmeng’s business matrix has been initially established. Next, we will continue to expand our market share through business linkage. "

After Xu Liang thought for a moment, he said, "The population of Chinese in Greater China and Southeast Asia is close to 60 million. This market is very broad. And the economic conditions are good, so you still have huge room for growth."

"Mr. Xu, the Chinese population in Nanyang is too scattered and it is difficult to form connections. Should we also be responsible for the Philippine market?"

"Philippine market?"

Qu Guangyun responded, "Currently, the economies of the eleven countries in Southeast Asia, except Singapore and Malaysia, are generally weak. If all subsidiaries are set up, the operating costs will be too high.

Therefore, I think Greater China and the Philippines should be combined into one subsidiary, headquartered in Xiangjiang.

The five countries in Indochina are combined into one subsidiary, with its headquarters in Singapore.

Indonesia, Brunei and Timor-Leste are combined into one subsidiary, with its headquarters in Jakarta.

In this way, coverage of eleven Southeast Asian countries has been basically completed. "

Xu Liang was very excited after hearing this.

Except for a very few of the eleven countries in Southeast Asia, their economies are generally weak and their markets are limited. As Qu Guangyun said, the operating costs of setting up an independent subsidiary are too high.

This was also something he had been hesitating about at the beginning.

It would be much better if it were divided into three subsidiaries.

The key is that after acquiring Excite’s Asian business, it just completed its coverage of Nanyang.

"Write me a report based on your ideas."

"OK."

At this moment, Kagami Miyoko hurried over.

Xu Liang saw it and said, "That's it, I'm dead."

"Mr. Xu, goodbye."

"goodbye."

Miyoko Kagami is his translator and is by his side every day during work hours.

"what happened?"

"President, look."

Miyoko turned the laptop in her hand towards Xu Liang, and the page showed the Yahoo Japan homepage.

Because of the faster Internet speed, Yahoo News has more photos and richer content.

Xu Liang saw himself at first sight.

In the photo, he was performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the dying woman in a red dress lying on the ground.

Because of the picture quality, the picture is very blurry.

Except for the person involved, it is difficult for others to recognize him at a glance.

I probably understood what was going on.

However, he is not yet proficient in spoken Japanese, let alone reading and writing.

"What does the title say?"

"Ichibanmu, the secret of the rescuer of the drowned girl is revealed."

"Click and read it to me." Xu Liang said calmly.

Miyoko Kagami quickly clicked on the content inside and read it word by word.

The report is not long, I read it in a few minutes.

Xu Liang was relieved.

The report only mentioned that he was the chairman and name of Hongmeng Dongying Company, with no other information, and the wording was complimentary.

He took out his cell phone and called Fukunaga Hideo.

"President."

"Have you watched Yahoo News?"

"Look, many media are calling now, hoping to interview you."

"I won't accept interviews. You can handle it yourself. Don't let this matter be related to me."

After responding, Hideo Fukunaga continued: "President, Yahoo has given in. They want to obtain the right to lead Hongmeng's Series A round.

In addition, the funds for the acquisition of the Excite portal will not be paid in cash, but will be exchanged for shares with Japan Yahoo. The specific amount can be discussed later.

In addition, SoftBank also hopes to use their equity in Chinese Internet startups in exchange for Excite. "

Xu Liang was moved.

"Did they really say that?"

"Yes."

Xu Liang thought for a moment and then asked.

"They didn't say they would invest in Hongmeng Japan?"

"No."

Xu Liang understood that Masayoshi Son probably looked down on Yahoo!

"I understand. Make an appointment with Masahiro Inoue and settle this matter as soon as possible."

"yes."

Xu Liang hung up the phone and soon it started ringing again.

Once you look at the caller ID, press the answer button.

"What else?"

"Mr. Fukuda Iwadera hopes to visit you tomorrow."

"Fukuda Iwaji Temple?"

"Mr. Fukuda Iwadera is a member of Congress, and the girl you saved the day before yesterday is his little daughter Fukuda Shinmei."

Xu Liang instantly understood that he was coming to thank him.

But he doesn't know much about Japanese society.

"Fukunaga, do you think I should see you?"

"President, in Japan, members of Congress have great influence. If we can make good friends with them, it will be of great benefit to you and Hongmeng Japan's future development."

Xu Liang is a pragmatist.

"I understand, please contact the other party to confirm the time and place of the meeting, and notify me when the time comes."

"OK."

——

"Tsukamoto Sozan" in Ginza is the Taishan Beidou in the Japanese sushi world and one of only two sushi restaurants with three Michelin stars.

Expensive, but demand exceeds supply.

Seats must be reserved in advance.

"President, this is it."

Xu Liang briefly looked at the building in front of him, which was obviously old but very clean, and then stepped inside.

"Sir, have you settled down?"

A waiter in kimono came over.

"We have already made a reservation. It's room No. 6." Hideo Fukunaga gave his phone number. After checking it, the other party said, "Please come with me."

"President, please."

Xu Liang nodded slightly and stepped forward.

The curtain separating the dining area and the service area was lifted, and the hall, which was about 100 square feet in size, was almost full of people.

But the noise was not loud.

Under the guidance of the waiter, the group came to the private room.

Pushing the door open, people who had arrived before them also looked over after hearing the movement.

In the middle is a thin, dignified middle-aged man wearing a black suit; on the right is a beautiful woman wearing a purple T-shirt, with her hair high and still charming.

The last one was the woman Xu Liang rescued.

At that time, people who were in urgent need of help did not have time to see more.

Only now did I realize that the other party was a rare beauty.

Wearing a long red dress, long hair shawl, delicate and beautiful facial features, deep eyes, fair skin, the whole person exudes a melancholic temperament, which is very similar to the Japanese female singer Akina Nakamori.

Seeing them come in, the three of them stood up immediately.

"Mr. Fukuda."

Fukunaga Hideo quickly bowed and saluted.

He is Japanese and knows the weight of members of Congress.

Futian Yansi nodded slightly, walked quickly to Xu Liang, and suddenly bent at ninety degrees.

"Mr. Xu, thank you very much for saving Xinmei."

The woman and the girl named Xinmei also bowed and saluted.

"Mr. Futian, there is no need to be polite. In that case, anyone with justice and conscience will lend a helping hand." Xu Liang said with a smile.

"Having said that, only Mr. Xu stood up at that time."

After a pause, Fukuda Iwaji stood up and waved.

"Xinmei, why don't you come over quickly?"

Futian Xinmei, who was standing behind, walked forward cutely, like a cute little deer.

Not daring to look at Xu Liang's eyes, he leaned over and thanked him.

"Xu Jun, thank you very much."

Xu Liang nodded slightly, "Life is precious. I hope you can treat yourself well in the future and don't let my efforts go to waste."

Futian Xinmei was shocked. She looked up subconsciously and met the eyes that revealed pity and concern. Their eyes intertwined. A strange feeling quickly grew in her heart, and she felt inexplicably panicked.

He quickly lowered his head, nodded quickly, and retreated to his mother's side.

"Mr. Xu, please sit down."

Xu Liang nodded and sat down across the table.

Fukunaga Hideo, Huo Gang and Kagami Miyoko sat nearby.

At this time, the waiter also started serving food.

"I ordered some food on my own initiative. I hope Mr. Xu will like it." Fukuda Iwadera said humbly.

"It's hard to refuse sushi with three Michelin stars." Xu Liang said with a smile.

"As long as you like it." After a pause, Futian Yanji continued: "Is Mr. Xu a Chinese?"

Xu Liang nodded.

"Why are you coming to Japan this time...?"

"Our company acquired the American business of Excite in Japan, and I was responsible for integrating the businesses of the two companies." Xu Liang said with a smile.

"Mr. Xu is the founder of our Hongmeng company. Currently, our company is China's largest gaming and Internet search company. It already has five subsidiaries in South Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore and Jakarta, and its valuation has exceeded US$600 million. ." Fukunaga Hideo said respectfully.

This kind of behavior with high emotional intelligence not only highlights Xu Liang's strength, but also avoids giving people the feeling of bragging.

"Six hundred million dollars?!"

Fukuda Iwadera couldn't help being shocked.
