Rebirth: I Want to Surf

"Old Yao!"

After lunch and before the afternoon meeting, Brother Chang found Yao Yuan. Now there are not many people who can call him Lao Yao.

"Let me introduce to you, this is Momilovic, Minister of Domestic and Foreign Trade of Serbia!"

Chang Ge brought over a guest with a full beard and the characteristic southern European features of high eyebrows and deep eyes. He said in Chinese: "Hello, first time meeting!"

"Nice to meet you. Do you speak Chinese?"

"A little bit!"

Momilovich switched to English and said with a smile: "I am very happy to cooperate with a great entrepreneur like you. I hope we have a pleasant night. But it is my first time to come into contact with this kind of thing, so I still need to worry a lot."

"It's okay, it's very simple. We'll see you tonight!"

"See you tonight!"

After chatting for a few words and finally meeting each other, Momilovich left for the time being.

Brother Chang said: "They brought 16,500 items this time, and they kept telling me, what should I do if they can't sell it? What should I do if they can't sell it? I said this amount is already very conservative. Last year we sold agricultural products, and all 10,000 orders were sold out in seconds. ."

“What’s the population of Serbia?”

"There are more than 8 million in Kosovo!"

"Oh, be rigorous!"

Yao Yuandao: "That's normal. How big is the market in a country with a population of more than 8 million? More than 10,000 items are quite large for them. If allowed, we can buy all the wine they produce in a year. Light, of course this is nothing to be proud of.

I have recently been thinking about how to bring Chinese goods to foreign countries. "

"Bringing goods abroad? It's a good idea, but we'll talk about it later..."

Brother Chang pulled him and whispered: "I personally remind you again, remember, never get involved in politics. Don't talk about the history of Serbia, don't talk about Yugoslavia, and don't talk about bombing the Yugoslavia embassy... International exchanges, You have to pay attention to every word.”

"I know, I know, I never eat steamed buns with human blood, let alone the blood of martyrs."

The two of them muttered for a while, then saw that the meeting was about to start in the afternoon, so they went to do their own business.

There were six sub-venues in the afternoon. Yao Yuan and Lao Wang were in one place, entering a themed meeting called "Enhancing People-to-People Connectivity". Because the two of them are engaged in cultural tourism, entertainment, film and television, and media, it is related to the "connection between people".

This small venue is much more exquisite than the conference venue in the morning.

There were more than a hundred Chinese and foreign guests sitting downstairs, half of whom were at ministerial level. What is a minister? Lao Wang didn't pay attention at all. He walked in with his head held high and boldly, just like the protagonist.

"Be low-key and build your character. Don't bully me sincerely!"

Yao Yuan shook his head, took out a pair of glasses and put them on.

At around two o'clock, the meeting started. While others were speaking, Yao Yuan lowered his head and made some brief modifications to his speech. Lao Wang next door glanced at it and was very confused.

In fact, he didn't understand Yao Yuan very much.

Capital was all about land and food at first, then the industrial revolution brought industry and energy, then finance and real estate, and finally the new generation of the Internet.

These are the four major categories, and there is also a special category - the military-industrial complex, which is considered the fifth category.

As far as the country is concerned, Lao Wang served as a soldier and started his career in real estate. In the short business history of New China, he is already regarded as old money, that is, Old money.

Yao Yuan is a representative of the new generation of the Internet, called New Money.

In fact, it was only more than ten years between the two of them starting their business, but it was like a century of renewal and iteration, with different ideas. Sometimes Lao Wang looked at Yao Yuan as if he was looking at his unfilial son, who was idle, cynical, and liked the entertainment industry...

So he has never understood how Yao Yuan built such a big industry from scratch?

“Now I would like to invite Mr. Wang Jianlin, Chairman of Wanda Group, to speak!”

"Whoosh!"

Lao Wang came to his senses, straightened his suit, stood up and strode onto the stage, reading from the script. He also lasted five minutes and couldn't say much. He read like an official document and was still trying to fool around with things:

"I am honored to speak here. My topic is "Developing Tourism Investment to Achieve People-to-People Connectivity."

1. There are huge investment opportunities along the Belt and Road Initiative

2. Tourism investment realizes interconnection

3. Wanda’s investment in tourism along the Belt and Road Initiative

…”

Hey guys, let’s just list one, two or three.

"Whoosh!"

Lao Wang came down, and after a while, he only heard: "Now we invite the chairman of 99 Group, Mr. Yao Yuan!"

Ever since, Yao Yuan, the face of Chinese entrepreneurs, stood up because he was handsome. He is tall and has long legs, so he walked onto the stage naturally and calmly.

“I was deeply moved after listening to the chairman’s speech this morning. He emphasized one aspect, which is people-to-people and cultural exchanges. In the past, exchanges in economy, trade, and diplomacy were mentioned, but this time people-to-people and cultural exchanges were mentioned.

99 Group is an Internet company. Does the Internet count as humanities? It may not count in a narrow sense, but the Internet is the best platform to show humanistic style.

Our purpose is to provide high-quality online content services to the world, especially developing countries.

Specifically, one is entertainment and social interaction.

We launched the TikTok short video platform at the beginning of the year. It is currently only available in North America. It has 50 million users in just a few months and is extremely popular among American teenagers.

TikTok will also cover the world, but we are definitely not a single product. We always adhere to the localization strategy and hand over entertainment to entertainment and young people to young people.

We help them dream, support them to express themselves, realize their value, share life and beauty with the world, and share their country and city.

TikTok itself is not humanities, but it will be the best channel to spread humanities.

The second is film and television.

We have developed the Hugelive platform, which has 60 million members worldwide. It is based in East Asia and North America and is covering Southeast Asia, South America, and Europe.

Hugelive conducted a survey. We took dozens of Chinese-language movies that have been popular in the past ten years and gave them to movie fans in various regions. We asked them which one they were impressed by and which one they would like to watch.

The results are very interesting. The film that received the most votes was "Ip Man".

Why is it "Ip Man"?

First of all, there is Kung Fu, which is the most specific impression of China among movie fans around the world. Secondly, it covers some of the most basic human resonance elements: protecting family, protecting friends, personal heroism, the weak resisting the powerful, and the bullied resisting the bully. !

A Southeast Asian won’t know what Argentina’s yerba mate tastes like, but he can definitely understand maternal love and love; a South American person won’t know whether Thai mangoes are sweet, but he can definitely understand it. The brilliance and greatness of human nature in times of crisis...

This is what we will focus on in the future. While supporting the local film and television industry, we will also produce more works that are common to all mankind.

When an American understands Chinese jokes, when an Italian imitates Korean jokes, when a Japanese enjoys Iranian movies, when a Brazilian plays Icelandic games, when a Sri Lankan Sing African songs…

I think this should be the connection between people. "
