Chapter 767 NetEase rises, Ding Sanshi becomes depressed

Unlike the strong economic atmosphere in Zhonghai, the political atmosphere in the capital basically overwhelms the smell of money. After all, this is the "foot of the emperor" and "the most virtuous place".

However, Lu Yiming doesn't like it very much because it feels too depressing.

And because of the smog days, this place is not suitable for settling, so the properties Lu Yiming purchased in the capital were mainly for investment.

If he lives by himself, forget it. He prefers the climate in the south, after all, he is used to it.

After the ceremony, there was naturally a grand banquet.

In this transaction, 3721 and Yahoo can barely be regarded as each getting what they need, so the banquet is naturally a feast for both the host and the guest.

After the banquet, Zhou Hongyi, who was slightly drunk, found Lu Yiming and said to Lu Yiming: "Mr. Lu, I will invite some friends here to have a dinner together in a few days."

Lu Yiming refused without hesitation and said: "No, I have to go back to Zhonghai tomorrow, and my girlfriend is celebrating her birthday."

That kind of so-called dinner party is simply an ineffective social interaction for Lu Yiming now. It is of no use other than listening to a bunch of compliments.

If you have the time, you might as well have some fun with your girlfriend.

Zhou Hongyi said: "Young man, if you have a chance to celebrate your birthday, just stay here for a few more days. Let me tell you, this is the capital, and the environment is completely different from that in the south."

Lu Yiming smiled and said: "The environment is indeed different. I'm not used to living here. It's too dry. I don't know how much water I drink every day. I'm afraid I'll get water poisoning."

"Besides, all the dinners you saved are just for sucking up to you? Do you want me to see you pretending to be cool? I can't stand the excitement."

Zhou Hongyi felt a little embarrassed when her thoughts were revealed, and she couldn't help but scratch her head.

He really feels like he is overjoyed now. After all, joining Yahoo has a bright future, so he can't wait to "share" this joy with the people he knows. After all, after being anonymous for so many years,

Now that it has become a trend, I feel uncomfortable if I don’t show off.

Lu Yiming patted Zhou Hongyi on the shoulder and said unceremoniously: "Don't be too arrogant. Yahoo may not be as reliable as you think. Maybe you fell into a trap this time?"

These words immediately made Zhou Hongyi depressed: "Mr. Lu, I am very happy now, can't you say something nice to me? Just pour cold water on me."

Lu Yiming laughed loudly: "Good medicine is bitter in the mouth and good for the disease, and good advice is hard on the ears and good for action. You are not short of praise now, so you have to accommodate other voices."

"Mr. Lu, why are you so philosophical all of a sudden?"

"I've always been like this."

Later, Lu Yiming continued: "If you are unhappy at Yahoo, you can come to me directly."

Zhou Hongyi asked curiously: "Why are we looking for you?"

"Of course I'm working on a project, are you treating me to dinner?"

When she heard about the project, Zhou Hongyi immediately became interested and asked enthusiastically: "What project?"

Lu Yiming didn't hide anything and said directly: "I want to make anti-virus software."

"Antivirus software?"

When Zhou Hongyi heard this, she sneered: "Mr. Lu, did you make a mistake? Make anti-virus software? I, Zhou Hongyi, have never done anything in my life to make anti-virus software. I'm tired, don't make money, and get scolded. Look.

Look at what companies like Jinshan and Rising have become in recent years. They have no future at all."

In the first few years of the 21st century, there were indeed several software anti-virus software companies with great momentum. After all, computers are gradually becoming more and more popular, and various viruses are beginning to appear, and those who surf the Internet are not professionals. Let alone anti-virus, they even distinguish viruses.

There is no way to avoid viruses or poisoning, so we can only rely on anti-virus software.

As a result, this anti-virus software is also half-baked, and the principle of anti-virus software inevitably requires some memory and processor performance.

At this time, the computer configuration is not high to begin with. It can freeze even when playing some online games, and blue screens when disconnected are common. Now there is an additional anti-virus software to eat up the performance, and then add various virus BUFFs...

The vast majority of people have no concept of performance, and do not know about computer poisoning. Coupled with the fact that some people are adding fuel to the flames, people naturally blame the anti-virus software for causing computer slowdowns and lags.

Lu Yiming joked: "Don't say it too slowly. History always moves forward. Maybe you will be really popular after a while."

Zhou Hongyi said firmly: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

The next day, Lu Yiming took the people back to Zhonghai.

After a good sleep, I woke up the next morning feeling refreshed.

Although in Lu Yiming's view, Zhonghai is in the north of Guangdong Province and is so far north that it is properly north, after all, the climate in most areas near the sea is similar, so after a trip to the capital, Zhonghai was impressed by Lu Yiming

Defined as the South.

When Lu Yiming got up, Shi Qingxue had already gone to class. Lu Yiming went out to have breakfast in a tea restaurant, then turned on the computer and started surfing the Internet.

After a while, he was attracted by an article.

The title of the article is: "The richest man does not value a hundred times investment income."

"Nima..."

Lu Yiming's blood pressure almost went up.

When he opened it and took a look, Lu Yiming found that there were so many quotes out of context that even Lu Yiming, the person involved, was confused as to whether he had said these words before.

In the comment area below the article, many people questioned him. The main reason is that in real life, whether you are an ordinary person working part-time or a business owner, making money is never easy.

In many physical manufacturing industries, the annual profits cannot even beat inflation, and all they earn is hard-earned money.

But it would be better for Lu Yiming to invest in an Internet company, leave it there for a few years, and then sell it at a price a hundred times higher. Who can withstand this?

The sale of 3721 to Yahoo really attracted too much hatred from Lu Yiming.

After all, except for investing 5 million, he had no control at all. It was so easy to make money, who wouldn't be jealous?

What's more, the main theme of the entire social propaganda now is to get rich through hard work. If Lu Yiming's behavior was done thirty or forty years ago, it would be nothing more than speculation, and he would be killed in minutes.

However, Lu Yiming actually sneered at this statement. If one could become rich through hard work alone, there would be no poor people in the world.

After all, Lu Yiming is the richest man in Asia, and he is so young and does things so unconventionally that he gets so much attention. It can be said that his every move cannot escape the eyes of interested people.

He is such a topical and controversial person. If we take it out of context and distort the facts on this basis, how much traffic will it attract?

At this time, the Internet is not yet developed, and the scope of news dissemination is not wide enough. Those "marketing accounts" are just running around in their own territory. If twenty years later, these things on Lu Yiming's body, one day

Can be hyped 800 times by short videos.

Lu Yiming has long been used to these things on the Internet. After all, he used to eat melons on his mobile phone every day. Now he has become a melon and put it on the table for others to eat. It can be regarded as retribution due to the cycle of nature. Anyway, the Internet these days has no memory.

Yes, it won't be long before no one pays attention to this matter.

However, things go against expectations. There is always some kind of Murphy's law in this world. The more you don't want something, the more it will appear.

A few days later, I thought the focus of the news would turn to someone else. However, because NetEase's stock price skyrocketed, Lu Yiming once again made the headlines of major mainstream newspapers and media across the country.

Relying on the profits from "Westward Journey 2", NetEase's game revenue reached 203 million, and its stock price soared to 70 US dollars. Lu Yiming, who had been the richest man in Asia for a long time, saw his assets increase by 8 billion again!

Two years ago, when Lu Yiming bought NetEase, he only spent 80 million, and Fatty Ding begged to sell it to him.

Another investment with a return rate of more than 100 times!

And this time I made even more money, using 80 million to make 8 billion!

When he saw the document sent by NetEase, Lu Yiming couldn't help but take a breath.

It is indeed an online game that has been attracting money for more than 20 years. Its power is really terrifying.

Lu Yiming just said before that a hundredfold return is nothing, but now Lu Yiming is shocked again, and a large group of people on the Internet have broken their guard.

After all, although a hundred-fold investment is indeed awesome, there are so many investors in the world. From a probability perspective, it is excusable from a probability perspective. For example, those who first grabbed Alibaba's listed stocks

, basically all have a hundredfold profit.

But NetEase is different. Not only is the amount larger, but the story is also very legendary.

During the stock market crash, NetEase's stock fell into pieces and investors shunned it. Ding Sanshi couldn't sell it even if he wanted to, and almost quit the market. It was Lu Yiming's appearance that saved NetEase and prevented it from going bankrupt that year.

Duzi, retaining the hope of a desperate comeback.

Then, after so many years, there seems to be no movement on this deal since then. The outside world has not heard any news from NetEase, and NetEase has not launched any products during this period.

Just when everyone was about to forget about this deal and NetEase, NetEase came back with the "Westward Journey" series, which became an instant hit and directly gave NetEase a cash cow. The idea for this game came from Lu Yiming.

Now, NetEase has taken off directly with the sequel of "Westward Journey", and its stock price is soaring like a rocket. With only one IP and two games, netizens have completely secured their position as the leading domestic game manufacturer.

Such ups and downs are nothing short of legendary.

On the Internet, many workers have broken their defenses.

"The richest man in China is so rich, how come his assets are still appreciating so fast?"

"That is to say, our wages can't increase by a few hundred yuan a year. The richest man in Lu can easily make hundreds of millions or billions. How can we still let people live?"

"It's so scary, it's so scary!"

"You guys know nothing. It is much harder to go from zero to one million than from one million to 100 million. Lu's richest man is an example, because a penny stumps heroes, but they can make money with money!"

"Yeah, even if you and Mr. Lu are optimistic about a project at the same time, you can't come up with the money to do it. Not only does Mr. Lu do it, but he also directly crushes his competitors in terms of scale. How can this not make money fast?"

"The ones who suffer the most are always those at the bottom."

In Lu Yiming's group of entrepreneurs, Zhou Hongyi directly @Ding Sanshi.

"@丁三石Hey, Fatty Ding, have you seen the news? NetEase's stock price has skyrocketed."

Ma Teng: "Did you bring... here?"

Zhou Hongyi: "It's me."

Ding Sanshi: "Don't make trouble, it's annoying."

Zhou Hongyi made a very slap-on-the-ground-laughing expression and asked knowingly: "Ah, what are you bothering about? Is it because of the soaring stock price of NetEase?"

There were a lot of divers in the group because of this topic. Of course they were very aware of the huge turmoil in the stock market.

Ma Teng: "This time I was successfully picked up by the richest man in Lu. Fatty Ding, if you had persevered back then, maybe you would be the one making eight billion today."

Ding Sanshi: "You are still talking about me. You don't want to think about your QQ. If you didn't sell it at the beginning, you will be the one making money now."

In front of the computer screen, Ma Teng's smile suddenly stiffened.

Then, he sent a crying emoji.

It can be said that how proud he was just now, he is now so sad.

Ding Sanshi: "Hmph, come on, let's hurt each other."

Jack Ma: "Killing someone, but also killing your heart?"

Just when everyone was chatting happily, Lu Yiming bubbled up: "Hey, what day is it today? Everyone is so free? What are you talking about so happily?"

Zhou Hongyi had previously tried to invite Lu Yiming to a dinner party when she was in the capital, but now that she saw the news, she immediately said: "NetEase's stock price has skyrocketed. Mr. Lu, your assets are going to 170 billion, right? This is unacceptable.

Invite everyone to a meal?"

Speaking of the treat, everyone was interested. Especially Ma Teng, who had just been stabbed in the lungs by Ding Sanshi and was in urgent need of a big meal to make up for his injured soul.

"That's right, Mr. Lu, it's time to treat us to dinner."

Lu Yiming also thought that now that the cold wave of the Internet is gradually dissipating, new historical opportunities are just around the corner, and the Internet will be an important national strategic highland in the future. It is just the right time to hold a "Martial Arts Conference" at this time.

So, he said in a smooth tone: "What you said seems to be true. All industries abroad will work together to keep warm, and we cannot be scattered. Now that the Internet winter has passed around the world, the haze has gradually dissipated, and it just so happens that we

Let’s take a step forward and compete for the right to speak on the world’s Internet. Then call everyone in the circle and get together.”

Seeing that Lu Yiming relented, and the excuse was well-founded, people couldn't help but look forward to it, and everyone started to boo.

"It's really not easy to be able to eat from Mr. Lu. I'm starting to feel honored now."

"I have to say that what Mr. Lu said touched my heart. Foreigners all laughed at us and said that we are like dragons when we are alone, but we turn into insects when we are in a group. What they mean is that we fight too hard among ourselves.

They will not cooperate. Our emerging Internet circle must show them that our combined power is enough to make the whole world tremble."

"Listening to what you said, I feel that this is more than just a simple dinner party."

Zhou Hongyi was still thinking about the dinner she told Lu Yiming before, so she said: "Then where is this place to eat? Why not choose the capital? After all, it is the capital."

Several people in the capital agreed.

However, some people expressed different views: "I think China Overseas is more suitable. After all, the Internet is more related to capital, and China Overseas has the most developed economy and is at the forefront of fashion and trends."

"We can build one in Baiyun. After all, it is the forefront of reform and opening up."

With all kinds of ideas, everyone proposed a variety of locations.

Proposals for an international metropolis like Xiangjiang, the imperial capital of China, are considered normal, but it is a bit hard to understand that someone actually proposed going to Mount Everest.

After much talk, no one agreed. So Lu Yiming suggested: "How about we go to Jiangnan to find a place?"

Jack Ma immediately agreed and said: "I think the opinion of the richest man Lu is very good."

After all, he is a native of Jiangnan.

At this time, the economic center was still in the northern capital circle and the southern coastal economic belt. The ancient scene of riding a crane down to Yangzhou with a hundred thousand gold in hand has not been repeated in this era. Therefore, many people expressed their opinions on Lu Yiming’s proposal.

Can't quite understand.

"Why did you choose Jiangnan?"

Lu Yiming said: "The water town in the south of the Yangtze River has beautiful scenery and rich history and culture, which is more in line with the restrained temperament of our Xia people. The Internet is a new thing and represents the latest technology and concepts. I plan to find an ancient town with a long history.

A perfect fusion of classical and modern, don’t you think it’s cool?”

"If you say that, it's really cool. So where should I choose in Jiangnan? West Lake?"

"Although Hangzhou is a famous city, I have been there many times..."

"To be honest, there are really no surprises."

"Then where to go? Mr. Lu."

Lu Yiming said: "I think we can go to Wuzhen."

At this time, Wuzhen was still a little-known place, and it was not yet the permanent site of the World Internet Conference ten years later.

Therefore, Lu Yiming plans to take a step ahead and complete the layout of Wuzhen. By then, it will not only make money, but also allow Future Capital to have sufficient influence and voice in Xia Guo's Internet industry.

In the previous life, the Xia Kingdom's Internet industry was divided among heroes and fierce involution. This was a good thing at first, as it avoided the monopoly of the industry. However, the infighting between major companies led to the Internet that was supposed to be more user-friendly, and was eventually artificially eliminated.

The separation has even hindered the further development of artificial intelligence.

Therefore, Lu Yiming wants to start planning now to completely reverse this situation.

And Wuzhen is the best opportunity.
