My Age of Investment

Two hundred and thirty-seven, compound talents

In a twinkling of an eye, it was already July, and good news from all fronts was reported frequently.

Facebook announced that it has entered Spain, and then a European country.

Because when it entered the Mexican market earlier, the Facebook team made a Spanish version.

Therefore, entering the Spanish market is completely natural.

The work of converting Facebook users into YouTube users has basically been completed.

The number of YouTube users has reached more than 16.2 million, of which 15.6 million are from Facebook, and the remaining 600,000 belong to the natural growth of YouTube platforms.

15.6 million user conversions, higher than the 15 million originally expected.

But Xia Jingxing was not satisfied with this, because the scale of Facebook users has exceeded 24 million, and according to the conversion ratio of 75%, it should be 18 million.

He called Yang Niu to the office and asked the reason with a stern face.

Yang Niu said aggrievedly: "This is because YouTube has not launched other language versions, and YouTube is currently only available in English, which has not kept up with the pace of Facebook's expansion."

Xia Jingxing frowned, "Why aren't the three language versions of Western, German, and French not developed?"

"not enough people!"

Yang Niu sighed, "Actually, the YouTube team has been working very hard. In order to cope with the surge in the number of users, they have been working overtime for a month in a row."

"Where's Lori? What is she doing?"

Xia Jingxing's eyes were sharp. He assigned Luo Li a job early in the morning, just because he was afraid that the number of users would surge and the manpower would not be able to handle it.

"She hasn't rested much from last month to this month. Now the YouTube team has expanded to more than 30 people, and the new 20 people are all recruited by her and the personnel department.

However, these new employees have just joined and are still familiar with the working environment, and their work efficiency is not high. "

Hearing this, Xia Jingxing's expression changed slightly. He was planning a major event recently, but he didn't pay much attention to the growth of YouTube employees.

"Our business is developing too fast, and now all employees of the company feel as if there is a vicious dog chasing them behind them, and the work pressure and intensity are very high."

It's not that Yang Niu doesn't want the company to develop better and faster, but it's too fast, like a taut string that will break at any time.

She was very worried that if an employee had a leak one day and the oil pipeline went down once, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Xia Jingxing pinched his eyebrows, he also noticed this problem.

But the reality is that there is really a vicious dog staring at Facebook, can he not be in a hurry?

The current YouTube has completed the entrepreneurial journey of more than a year in the previous life.

Difficulty is normal, not difficult, but strange.

This is still the result of his precautions, bandwidth resources, human resources, etc. have kept up, otherwise it will collapse early.

"BIG NEWS!"

The puppy walked into the office with a sullen face, and as soon as he opened his mouth, Xia Jingxing and Yang Niu's nerves were tense.

The dog went on to report, "The YouTuber is about to have a competitor."

The babes asked, "Is it Google?"

The puppy shook his head, "No, it's o.

Juyou.com bleeds financing. With a pre-investment valuation of 20 million US dollars, it has raised 10 million US dollars from Red Dot Ventures.

sold one-third of the shares.

I have inquired clearly. The requirement of Red Dot Ventures is that Juyou.com must be a video website, which may also include a gambling agreement. "

Yang Niu said in surprise, "The pre-money valuation of $20 million? Are you sure?"

The puppy nodded, "Yes, that's all."

Yang Niu asked, "Didn't Juyou.com's market valuation reach $40 million some time ago?"

Xia Jingxing said with a smile, "It would be nice if an investment institution would dare to invest in them at this time and another, and I would like to take advantage of the valuation.

This Red Dot Ventures is not afraid of death, and dares to speculate at this juncture. "

"As long as we do one-tenth of our body size, we won't lose money."

The dog spread his hands and said, "Because everyone has seen the magic of social and video sites outside, I think Juyou.com can replicate the miracle of Facebook's gas tube."

"Then let them copy it!"

Xia Jingxing didn't care too much, looked at the dog and asked, "I told you to stare at Google, how is it?"

The puppy nodded, "I watched, but it's still calm."

Xia Jingxing instructed, "Continue to stare, Google has troubles, notify me in time."

Facebook has also upgraded its ranks now, staring at its opponents, and they have begun to rely on companies at the level of Google.

After having dinner and chatting with Page that day, Xia Jingxing was sure that he had paralyzed the other party.

But still can't be careless.

An opponent at this level of Google is much more difficult to deal with than any dating network, Juyou.com, F Club and the like.

Once it is confirmed that the direction is wrong, some manpower and material resources are used to adjust the product.

And what you can do is to buy more time for wretched development.

"Hello, Darren, my name is Alex, and I'm currently the Director of Content Acquisition for the Viacom Group's MTV Global Network."

In the conference room on the fourth floor where the YouTube company was located, Xia Jingxing met the traditional media talent recommended by the headhunting company, a fat middle-aged white man with slightly bald hair.

This fat man was in his forties, wearing a suit, after shaking hands with Xia Jingxing, he was sitting across from him and talking.

If you want to grow and develop, you can't just rely on Internet people.

Although Xia Jingxing kept saying to Peggy that he would not do Internet TV, he was actually just fooling the latter.

"Have Luo Li talked to you?" Xia Jingxing asked.

Alex nodded, "Yes, Ms. Lori has introduced me to Facebook and YouTube in detail, as well as the work she needs to be responsible for after joining YouTube."

Xia Jingxing looked at the other party and smiled lightly, "Then tell me what you think about YouTube?"

Alex calmly said, "Okay, to sum it up in one sentence: YouTube is a "consumer media company where people watch and share original videos on the Internet."

"Well summed up, it seems you know what we're doing."

Alex shrugged, "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't be here, and I'd stay with the network, waiting to be disrupted."

"That puts you as chief content officer for YouTube, what can you do for YouTube?"

Alex smiled and said: "I have worked in the broadcast and television field for nearly two decades, and have done a series of content-related things such as content production, content channel distribution, content procurement, and so on.

Viacom boss Redstone has a saying well, content is king.

This one also applies to the newly born online video field.

Without good content, it is impossible to retain viewers, that is, users of video sites. "

Xia Jingxing raised his hand and motioned for the other party to continue.

"I have watched all the videos on YouTube, and many of them are videos of users sharing their lives.

Living, without a sense of distance, is its biggest feature.

That's why I think it's so popular with everyone. "

Alex changed his words, "But, I think we have to guide the kids to make better, more exciting videos."

Xia Jingxing was a little interested and asked, "Then how do you guide me?"

"First of all, the first step is to classify the video channels, just like TV stations, into channels with different characteristics.

In this way, the first benefit is that video bloggers can find their own positioning.

The second benefit is that viewers, that is, ordinary users, can find interesting videos more quickly and conveniently according to their own interests.

In the second step, we can organize some activities, hold some competitions, and use prizes and honors to motivate some users to shoot better videos, and at the same time accept the public's review.

It can be selected according to the number of likes, the number of broadcasts, or some voting activities.

In the third step, we turn these top original content creators into Internet stars, and even promote them on TV shows, so that more people can become famous and increase the influence of YouTube.

At the same time, it can also stimulate more users to shoot and upload videos in order to become famous, enriching the video library of YouTube. "

After finishing speaking, Alex looked at Xia Jingxing with a smile, waiting for the young boss's comment.

"Very good, you are the person we are looking for, it is you, hurry up and go through the formalities, the development of YouTube is not waiting for anyone."

Xia Jingxing was quite satisfied with this person. He felt that the other party was not old-fashioned. He knew both the media industry and the Internet game play. What YouTube needed was this kind of compound talent.
