Rebirth: I Want to Surf

Chapter 704 Tenth Anniversary

Yu Jiajia lives in the Four Seasons Hotel, which is located in Financial Street, Central.

This location is located in the capital city, which is roughly equivalent to a five-minute walk to Tiananmen Square.

The Four Seasons Hotel not only has rooms with 180-degree Victoria Harbor sea view, but also a French restaurant with three Michelin stars—Michelin is the translation here, just like calling Ronaldo Ronaldo, Hollywood Hollywood, and Hollywood Audrey Hepburn called Audrey Chapin...

The meeting place will be at this French restaurant.

The other party was a bald foreigner in his fifties. His decent attire and manners were tempered in a special environment.

This person is called Rulov, the global senior executive partner of Sequoia Capital, with higher authority than Shen Nanpeng, and of course he was introduced by Shen Nanpeng.

Yu Jiajia's English skills are good, and she brought a translator to be on the safe side.

After being simple and courteous, she began to explain her project: "Hugelive has occupied the Hong Kong market and is actively seeking overseas development. We have a substantial film library and operating experience..."

"..."

Roelof remained silent, and after listening for a long time, Fang said: "Your shareholding structure can be traced to mainland China. It will be very troublesome for such a media platform to enter the US market."

"We are anchoring the global market, and the United States is just one of them. Besides, it is not without precedent. We have already acquired a Hollywood company. The year before last, a mainland company also acquired an American TV station—although it is a TV station for Chinese Americans."

Rulov was noncommittal and continued to ask: "The United States has the strongest film and television industry system and the most potential video platform. What do you use to attract users?

Don't tell me about buying copyrights, stacking film libraries, how to market, I want to hear new things. "

"..."

Yu Jiajia paused and said, "One is the localization strategy.

You know, the film and television industry in most countries is not so developed, and there is a general lack of funds. According to the characteristics of different countries and regions, we invest in the formation of teams, hire local directors and actors, and shoot works that can reach the limit of their production capabilities.

The other is algorithms. "

"algorithm?"

Rulov became interested and said, "Please describe it."

"The classification of movies nowadays is too traditional and rigid, always labeling a movie, this is for men, this is for women, this is for family fun...

Too far behind!

A new user, who just came to this website, must be looking for content that interests him.

And our algorithm is actually a kind of business logic, it doesn't care whether you are a man or a woman, Chinese or American, it only cares what movies you like to watch.

As long as users leave data on the website, our algorithm will recommend movies they may like to users based on these data, and continue to optimize.

We don’t let people find the content, but let the content find people. We even shoot some works specifically based on these data. This is Hugelive! "

Oh!

Astute readers will understand it as soon as they hear it, big data!

Everyone in the later generations is immersed in the information cocoon created by big data, from waking up to going to sleep, from living to working, and enjoying it one by one.

Occasionally, those who break out of the shell may be shocked to see the outside world, but when you get used to this new thing, it also means that you have brought it into the cocoon and continue to enjoy it.

You saw an electric wand video on station B, if you open Taobao again, you will find that it is the electric wand recommended to you!

Hiss!

After listening to Yu Jiajia's violent remarks, Roelof sucked in the cotton field.

Big data theory has been in its infancy as early as 1980, and it has only recently become a hot word. Some Internet companies in the United States are clamoring that "the era of big data is coming!"

And the real wider application will probably be after 2012.

Rulov doesn't understand technology, but he understands business logic.

Yu Jiajia briefly described that he can already imagine a video platform that uses big data to cover the world. It may succeed, it may fail, but isn't that what investing is for?

"Last question, how do you make money?"

"Well……"

Yu Jiajia hesitated for a moment, and said: "I can't guarantee you the profit. No video site in the world is profitable. I also have a video site in mainland China that is about to go public. The annual server fee is more than 300 million yuan. .

The outlet of the video station should not be profit, but as a huge traffic entrance, its value is more suitable to be reflected in the stock price. "

Lose the money of the shareholders, let the shareholders earn it!

Roulov's heart is becoming more and more unobstructed. I like this way.

"Very challenging project, I like challenges! I will seriously consider your proposal, and wish us good progress next time we meet."

"Thank you very much, too. It was a great conversation."

In the end, the two spoke social language and broke up.

Xu Meng watched the whole process. She runs Maili.com, and she is considered a number one person, but she is not enough to watch on this occasion, and said with a smile: "Mr. Yu, you were so calm and calm just now, I can't do it, I can't speak English. Just pass."

"More experience! I'm not born."

"Do you think that foreigner will agree?"

"It's more or less the same. I guess we are going to set up a subsidiary company to specialize in the overseas version of the video. The first stop is the US market, because the US market is the hardest. If we can enter, a lot of money will come pouring in. .”

"Then will they let us develop?"

"At least it doesn't matter now. When it grows in the future, the market value will also rise."

Yu Jiajia sneered: "Do you really think Boss Yao has so much affection? It's all for making money. Going to sea is just a high-sounding excuse."

…………

"Well, well, I see!"

"Generally, it will be listed within three weeks after the roadshow, that is, next month. I will definitely accompany you. I am the major shareholder of Maili after all."

"Let's celebrate it. This year is the 10th anniversary of 99... No, no, the summer is over, so don't we have to hold a party at the end of the year? I think it will be held at the end of the year."

"I have unilaterally set up a [Preparation Office for the 10th Anniversary Event of the 99 Group], referred to as the 9th Office. You and Dongzi are my deputy..."

"Okay, I still have to write lyrics, hang up!"

In Yingshi Building, Yao Yuan received a call from Yu Jiajia, saying that everything went well.

After hanging up, he shook the paper in his hand, and it was the 10th anniversary letter on it. He originally wanted to write humorous and sensational, full of feelings and grand layout, but the boss has been working for a long time, and the pen is not as strong as before.

Seeing him worried, Cheng Wei said, "How about I find someone to draft and you are responsible for the final revision?"

"Well, yes!"

Yao Yuan threw out the burden without hesitation, thought for a while, and said: "The words "stars and seas" must be added in it, to imagine the future."

"Okay, I understand."

Back in 2001, he was still an ignorant reborn.

Stealing Yao Xiaobo's private money, Baila Zhuangding started from a SMS alliance, quickly became an SP, and started a dating club.

So it's hard to say which day is the anniversary.

Unknowingly, in the past ten years, I have experienced many friends and enemies-mainly penguins.

Yao Yuan was also very emotional, and wanted to hold an unprecedented celebration and invite all his friends, including representative users at various stages.

After a rough thought, I went to hundreds of people, and I wanted to plan well at the end of the year.

(and in the evening...)
