My Entertainment Circle

In the restaurant of the Peninsula Hotel, Zhang Pingan, the principal, and some of his friends sat in a private room, drinking and eating, while discussing the issue of equity acquisition. Well, China seems to have the habit of "talking about business at the wine table", and many business negotiations are negotiated at the wine table. So tonight's dinner with only a group of men was very routine.

There were no beautiful women to cheer, and no pretty girls to toast and persuade. Zhang Pingan and his group were eating food, drinking, and chatting about some daily life topics.

One of the second-generation locals in Shanghai, he smiled and picked up a glass of red wine and sniffed it, then took a sip and said: "Hey... After graduating from overseas, I have nothing to do every day. It's better for An Ge'er and the principal to have their own things to do, so that life won't be so empty, right?"

Some second-generations became idle guys after returning from overseas. Anyway, they are not short of money, and it doesn't matter whether they go to work in their family's company. After all, most of the families of Zhang Pingan's generation are only children. No matter what they become in the future, they will take over their family's business.

Even if those who really learned some skills abroad come back and go to work in their family's industry now, they can only be a middle layer at most, and it is impossible to be the top decision-making layer. So even if they have great ambitions in their hearts, as long as their family members are still in the boss position, they can't display them.

After all, many second-generations are tired of such a depressing life. Going to work, they don't have the turn to make decisions on the company's affairs. It looks like an ordinary office worker every day, so it's better to play outside. Or they can ask their family members to give them some money to go out and make a name for themselves, but you also have to have a good investment direction to create a name, right?

The principal has an investment company. His small investment company started with 500 million in start-up capital, but with abundant information sources, he still gained a lot in the market. After all, his family business is now a top commercial real estate in China, and it also has many other overseas layouts. In such a super-large enterprise, he can get some resources anyway. So it's completely okay for the principal to slowly mix it himself.

Not to mention Zhang Pingan, he joined the most profitable industry when the live broadcast platform just started. He has a forward-looking vision and layout, making the platform the first in China. And he has also made a name for himself in the entertainment industry. You know, the place he went to was overseas, which was a place without leverage.

If his entertainment career was in China, more or less families could help and take care of him, but Zhang Pingan's entertainment career was in South Korea, where the entertainment industry is more advanced. Everyone present understood a truth, the more advanced the industry, the greater the competition! And Zhang Pingan used his own strength to break out his own business card, which has to be admitted to be very powerful.

.......

Listening to the words of this second generation, Zhang Pingan laughed: "You are looking for a goal in life for yourself."

In fact, it is quite empty for such a rich second generation to live a life of drunkenness and dream every day. Although they can call friends with a phone call at night, the second generation is not stupid. They know what those who are willing to come out are for. Either there is a bargain to be taken or it is profitable. But when a person is lonely and panic, he doesn't care about the little calculations in his mind. They just want to dispel loneliness, nothing more.

Nowadays, as long as people in this era are not mentally challenged, there are no real fools. After all, everyone has a scale in their hearts. Some things are just not explained.

Zhang Ping'an's words made the second generation with a relatively empty life nod and say, "Yes, no matter what your lifestyle is, you must have a goal, otherwise what is the difference between you and the walking dead."

Zhang Ping'an smiled and said, "Many people outside envy the life of revelry and debauchery every night."

"Heh~~ Revelry every night? Are you really not afraid of kidney loss?"

The second generation is a typical full man who doesn't know the hunger of hungry men. Perhaps there is no shortage of women in their lives, so they really don't have much interest in those things of "being a bridegroom every night". Whether it is a beautiful woman or a beautiful scenery, you will get tired of it if you appreciate it every day, and the same principle applies to those love actions. Even if you change new faces to play every day, one day you will get tired of such things.

The principal smiled and said, "Emotions, in our lives, may just be a condiment. By the way, aren't you living a rather empty life? It just so happens that An Ge'er is going to shift his focus to the entertainment industry, and he can't manage live broadcasts. Are you interested?"

"Yes..."

The matter kicked off, and everyone started talking about Zhang Pingan's shares and the heavyweight contracted anchors he had. The final price fell on '5.8 billion', and Zhang Pingan transferred everything to them. There were five of them in total, and each of them invested more than 1 billion.

Zhang Pingan felt that the price was acceptable, so he agreed to handle the handover at the company tomorrow morning. When Zhang Pingan first invested in the platform, he spent close to hundreds of millions of dollars. Now that he has made 60 times his profit, he feels it is enough. Although Zhang Pingan is very clear that the valuation of the live broadcast platform may double next year, he must let them see some profit before they take over.

Live broadcasting has become very popular in the past two years, but in another two years, that is, almost 2018, it will enter a period of calm. Even in the future, fewer and fewer people will watch the live broadcast, and the popular anchors and Internet celebrities will gradually be eliminated by the market. After all, most of the people watching the live broadcast are ordinary people, and maybe they will impulsively reward 10,000 to 20,000 yuan at first. But after the impulse, there will be a sense of powerlessness and loss, and in the end, full of regret.

After all, everyone is stupid. Even if you give out a reward of 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, you will only hear a few words, "My brother is handsome, my brother is grand, and I can't even hold my hand, let alone other things~~". Therefore, the popularity of live broadcasting will naturally decrease after the common people wake up. At least in the later period, there will be no such impulsive people. If you don't come, you will be rewarded with one hundred thousand or one million. After all, the second generation of rich people no longer play, and the common people cannot afford to reward them.

Therefore, it is best for Zhang Pingan to choose to exit wisely at this time.

In mid-July, a big piece of news came to the consulting platform. Panda Live Broadcasting completed the delivery, and the principal fully acquired the live streaming platform from Zhang Pingan. As for how much it was purchased, only a few people know that Zhang Pingan withdrew from the live broadcast platform in a gorgeous manner.

On the day when the complete handover was completed, Zhang Pingan called his anchors out for a meal and said with a smile: "Brother An, why did you sell the platform? I think the future of the live broadcast industry is about unlimited money." ah."

Zhang Ping'an just responded with a smile: "I invested in other industries and had little money to buy tickets."

On the day he dined with the anchors, Zhang Pingan invited them to a KTV and spent as much as 880,000 yuan in one night. This purchase quickly became a hot search topic on scarves the next day. Zhang Pingan said goodbye to the anchors contracted by the original platform and spent 880,000 Huaxia coins at KTV.

Of course, this consumption is still much lower than the 2.5 million the principal spent a few years later, but in 2015, Zhang Pingan squandered nearly one million Huaxia coins in one night, which was still big news.

In mid-July, Zhang Pingan landed in Yanjing, and he and Pang Di met at the hotel in the evening. Fatty, who had just returned from overseas, was sitting alone in a private room with Zhang Pingan in the hotel restaurant, eating dinner. Fatty looked at Zhang Ping'an and asked: "Did you really sell your platform? Aren't people outside very optimistic about the live broadcast industry?"

Zhang Ping'an took a sip of beer and said: "The market has become chaotic, so I got rid of it as soon as possible. Did you know? Someone offered my traffic anchor a 50 million job-hopping signing bonus! Every platform has to compete for traffic. , I have already praised the anchors too much, so I quit. If I play like this, I will kill the live broadcast industry sooner or later!"

Fatty has big eyes, but when she heard about the 50 million signing bonus, her eyes widened even more: "Fifty million? Isn't this... too scary?"

Zhang Ping'an nodded and said: "Yes, poaching people in the market seems to be free of charge. They are raising money, and at the same time they are using all means to poach people just for the traffic of anchors. If it weren't for the fact that my anchors were all from the company a long time ago After signing the contract, I guess they couldn’t bear the temptation to change jobs. I signed the contract with them for only a few million, and their value has increased tenfold!”

"How much did you sell for when you transferred your platform to the principal? Well, I'm just asking casually, I don't mean anything else."

Zhang Ping'an smiled and said: "The principal did not invest alone. There are several partners behind him. The platform and anchors are all packaged in billions. However, this time they all invested in a technology company in Yanjing. You know who is doing "Toutiao", right?"

Listening to the software Zhang Ping'an was talking about, Fatty said depressedly: "Ah~~that thing that pops up for no reason every day. Which company are you very optimistic about?"

Zhang Ping'an nodded and said: "Yeah. It seems that they have been developing short videos recently, and there happened to be a gap in funds, so I invested the money from selling the platform."

She doesn't know much about investing in companies or software, so she just listens. Anyway, after knowing Zhang Ping'an's family background, Fat Di never worried about his future? Because she knew very well that the energy controlled by Zhang Pingan's family was quite terrifying. Even if he lost all the funds in his hand, it would not affect his life.
