My Entertainment Circle

On the flight from Seoul to Shanghai, Zhang Ping'an was sitting in the first-class cabin and resting. The cup of coffee in front of him that he ordered after getting on the plane was still half a cup. I went to see Santa Claus after dinner yesterday, but he didn't quietly place the gifts next to their pillows. Instead, he blatantly gave them things that he didn't have time to package.

Especially when giving Taeyeon a watch, Pani, who was standing next to her, actually said, "Why don't you put it on Taeyeon?"

When Pani said this, she didn't pay attention to Sika sitting in the car, but Zhang Pingan still smiled and put on the watch he chose for Taeyeon. Although what Pani did made Zhang Pingan speechless, he was willing to comply with her unreasonable request.

While Taeyeon was accepting Zhang Ping'an pulling her wrist to put a watch on her, she was also observing Sika's jealous expression while sitting in the car. At that moment, Taeyeon felt that Pani was so bored that she would say such words that would embarrass both her and Zhang Pingan. However, because she just broke up today, maybe because she was in a bad mood, Taeyeon didn't argue with her much afterwards.

But when Taeyeon thought about it afterwards, Zhang Ping'an put the watch on her in front of Sika. Maybe this was a clear indication that her status in his heart was no worse than Sika's? When Sika saw this scene, she didn't say much. Even if she was dissatisfied, it was still stored in her heart.

Of course, after returning home, Sika went to Zhang Pingan in a sour mood and used some tempers, but her temper was tolerated by Zhang Pingan. Because Zhang Pingan himself knew that his previous actions towards Taeyeon must have overturned the jealousy in her heart. She didn't explode on the spot, and her tolerance was engraved in her bones.

It is said that 'out of sight, out of mind', he did something like that in front of her, and she was not upset because she was not upset, so tolerating Sika's little temper can be regarded as his compensation for her guilt.

After leaving Seoul in the morning, Zhang Ping'an didn't let Sika see him off. The two simply hugged and kissed him goodbye at home, but Sika bit him slightly hard on the lips. Although the skin was not broken or anything, But it's also painful.

After a two-hour flight, Zhang Pingan landed in Shanghai. When he returned home today, Sika prepared a formal suit for him. The suit was paired with a formal coat of woolen coat. His dress could be described as very businesslike. After watching him put on the formal suit, Sika kept sighing, saying that his figure is obviously so elegant after putting on the suit, but he just likes to wear sportswear?

It was rare for Sika to bother her about dressing up, so Zhang Ping'an just followed her wishes. The suit, vest, tie, coat, and hair wax look. Zhang Ping'an personally thinks this is a TV show look because it's too formal!

Zhang Ping'an looked down at his clothes after coming out of the airport. He hadn't dressed so formally for a long time. Shaking his head, he dragged the suitcase out of the airport exit.

At this time, the general manager of the platform at the airport entrance had been waiting for a long time. After seeing Zhang Ping'an appear, he quickly greeted him with a bright smile: "Mr. Zhang, it's been a smooth journey."

"It went very well. Lao Wang, I haven't had breakfast yet. Let's find a place to eat Xiao Long Bao first."

The vehicle that came to pick him up was the company's commercial vehicle. It was either a high-end vehicle or a Buick commercial vehicle, which is the most common in China. Sitting in the car, when the driver ran towards the city, Lao Wang said with a smile: "Are you going home or staying in a hotel today? Do you want to take you back to put your luggage first?"

Zhang Ping'an responded with a smile: "Let's stay in a hotel. It's hard to run away when you live alone at home to eat. It's the same hotel I always stay in."

Lao Wang said "Mandarin Oriental Hotel" to the driver in front of him and then turned around and continued to talk to Zhang Pingan: "The live broadcast has become more and more popular recently. The company's revenue continues to rise every day. You brought it back from South Korea." The income of those anchors starts at 100,000 yuan a day, and Yin Suwan even set a new high of 1 million yuan a day.”

Zhang Ping'an said with a smile: "The popularity of live broadcast has not reached its peak yet. When you open live broadcast on mobile phones, that will be the real era of live broadcast. By then our income will more than double what it is now, and outdoor live broadcast will be The playability has also improved.”

Mr. Wang said: "Well, our technology is almost complete, and we are planning to officially launch mobile live broadcast on January 1st. Also, the outdoor domain has been discussed. Now we have to wait and see when it will be launched?"

Zhang Ping'an said: "We'll talk about it in the afternoon meeting. I'd better ask for everyone's opinions on this. For the mobile live broadcast on January 1st... play some new themes, such as sneaking into the anchor's live broadcast room? I'll see if I can go in two days. Backstage interview for Korean TV’s year-end concert?”

After listening to Zhang Pingan's suggestion, Mr. Wang raised his eyebrows and said, "The backstage interviews of Korean idols must be very interesting. Now Tudou's "The Show", a singing program, has a fixed backstage interview session. , but that’s a TV show and our live backstage interview is more interesting.”

"Yeah. The live broadcast is definitely more interesting, because the idols can answer the audience's questions face to face. However, the interview still needs the permission of the TV station. We can't just go in and do the interview with our mobile phones."

"clear!"

...

Soon, Zhang Ping'an's car arrived at the hotel. After he checked in, he ordered snacks in the hotel restaurant. Lao Wang and Zhang Ping'an sat in the hotel restaurant and continued to talk about the platform. The two people in the car were talking about the platform's next live broadcast format, and Lao Wang talked about investment when they were alone.

Lao Wang said: "Mr. Zhang, Principal Wang has offered 400 million Chinese yuan and hopes to buy 10% of the shares."

"What is our current market valuation? It is close to 7 billion Chinese yuan. He wants to buy 10% for 400 million? Is it because of his background, or because his father is the richest man?"

"He said, 400 million, 10% of the shares, and bring the IG team to our live broadcast platform. And next year's 'LPL event' sponsorship can also help us get it."

The team's entry is inevitable, after all, the live broadcast industry is getting more and more popular now. Many retired professional players and high-level players of League of Legends have joined the live broadcast. It is not a bad thing for professional clubs to come in and participate in the live broadcast and interact with the audience. What attracts Zhang Ping'an the most is professional sponsorship.

Although Zhang Pingan knew that sponsorship was a money-burning business, he was still tempted. Because the two years of 2015 and 2016 were the peak period of the popularity of League of Legends. Sponsoring professional competitions through their platform will give them more publicity opportunities. The more famous the platform is, the higher the market valuation will be, which will be more convenient for the platform's future financing.

Zhang Pingan frowned and said, "Next year's event sponsorship... Ask him if he can get two years of sponsorship."

Mr. Wang immediately reminded, "Two years of sponsorship is very expensive. Recently, other platforms have received a lot of financing, and many people on the platforms have started to poach people everywhere, and the base salary they offer is higher than ours."

"Let's prepare for the first round of financing. After excluding the principal's 10%, we will throw out 20% of the shares for financing, and it's best to get 1.5-2 billion for me. In two years, I want the platform to be valued at 1 billion US dollars. Do you have confidence?"

"Yes! Next year, the outer domain will be opened, and the mobile phone will be opened. I am confident that it will be valued at 1 billion US dollars in two years!"

Zhang Pingan smiled and said, "OK, then I'll leave it to you. Remember to deposit the money from the principal's purchase of shares into my personal account, and the financing will be counted separately!"

"Well." Lao Wang didn't think that Zhang Pingan had the intention of selling his shares, and he didn't think that Zhang Pingan would sell the promising live broadcast platform at its peak. Of course, Zhang Pingan would not tell him his plans, after all, the platform is still wholly owned by him.

Seeing that Zhang Pingan had almost finished his breakfast, Lao Wang asked, "Are you going to the company now?"

"Yes, let's go to the company and inform the principal that you can come to the company to sign the contract. Um... before that, please take me home. I have to get a car, otherwise I will have to take a taxi myself when I come back in the evening."

The company's driver took Zhang Pingan to his Tangcheng Yipin and left, while Zhang Pingan and General Manager Lao Wang went to the company in his Mercedes-Benz.

Lao Wang touched the AMG logo in Zhang Pingan's car: "This car is rare." Zhang Pingan said: "It's okay? What car can't you buy with money now? The main reason is that many people think it's not cost-effective to buy this car, three million. It's better to buy a more handsome Maserati sports car, which is more convenient for picking up girls." "Your one is not bad, right?" Zhang Pingan said with a smile: "A Mercedes-Benz and a Maserati, parked in front of girls at the same time, they will think the Maserati is more handsome. No, it should be said that the Porsche is more handsome! Young people prefer Porsche, right?" "Aren't you a young person?" Zhang Pingan said with a smile: "Me? I have driven a Porsche, but I still like the Mercedes-Benz in the end. This car is more comfortable and more stable. Of course, if there is a Rolls-Royce, that's another matter." The two talked about cars along the way. As a man, after talking about work, they talk about interests, and Lao Wang's commission for half a year can fully support him to buy a luxury car. So it's not bad to ask Zhang Pingan, who has been driving luxury cars for a long time, about the car. "Why don't you buy a Rolls-Royce in China, Principal? Now everyone drives a Rolls-Royce when they go out."

"He bought a Rolls-Royce, so I bought one too? Why? And buying a Rolls-Royce in China? It's too uneconomical. The Rolls-Royce I bought in Korea is the same price as this Mercedes. And my girlfriend Sika has a business in Korea, so she can use that car for show. But the car I use for show in China is a supercar, so there's no need for it, right?"
