Ten Years Against the Current of Rebirth

Chapter 276 Possible Crisis

2013, February 14.

Early in the morning, Xu Xing was woken up from bed by Yan Chijuan.

After a simple wash, Xu Xing asked Yan Chijuan to go downstairs to have breakfast first, while he walked to Xu Niannian's bedroom door and knocked on the door.

After a few seconds, an impatient voice came from the room: "Who is it?"

"I."

"what?"

"Jianju and I will go back to the city soon, what about you?"

"So early?" There was a voice in the room, it seemed that Xu Niannian got out of bed, then walked to the door in slippers.

Soon, the bedroom door was opened, and the warm air-conditioned air blew out. Xu Niannian, wearing only a thin nightgown, poked her head out: "I've only been back for a few days, are you going back now?"

"After all, he is a boss who has many things to do. It's time to go back to work." Xu Xing subconsciously lowered his head and glanced at Xu Niannian's long legs, then turned away and asked, "Do you want to go back together?"

"I know." Xu Niannian's tone paused for a moment before he said, "But you and Jianju should go back first. I'll drive back by myself in the afternoon."

From the looks of it, she probably didn't want to be with Xu Xing and the others.

"Not together?"

"Why don't you look at what time it is?" Xu Niannian rolled his eyes at him, "I want to sleep in, you go first, bye."

With a bang, the door was closed.

Xu Xing originally wanted to say something, but after opening his mouth, he still didn't say much.

…

After going downstairs, Yan Chijuan had already drank hot porridge.

It was around six o'clock in the morning. Huang Xiuzhen had already gotten up at 5:30, cooked porridge and started cleaning.

Xu Lisong also went downstairs at about the same time. As he gets older, his sleep is relatively light, and he usually wakes up after five or six hours of sleep.

Now that the porridge was cooked, Yan Chijuan, under the warm reception of the two elderly people, sat down at the dining table in the living room with a bowl of hot porridge, and sipped it quietly, his cheeks slightly red.

The grandparents obviously learned the true identity of Yan Chijuan from Xu Jian and Sun Wanhui last night, and knew that this was the little girlfriend brought back by Xu Xing.

At this moment, looking at Yan Chijuan drinking porridge, the two old people were also smiling and sitting across the dining table to have breakfast.

After Xu Xing went downstairs, he went to the kitchen to make a bowl of porridge, and chatted with his grandparents while drinking the porridge.

"I also had a guest at home yesterday. After breakfast, I and I will go back first."

"So early? Why don't you stay for a few more days?" Huang Xiuzhen frowned a little dissatisfied, "Didn't you always stay in the countryside for more than half a month?"

"Today is different from the past. Grandma, please understand." Xu Xing smiled flatteringly, "Your grandson is making a lot of money now, and he has thousands of employees to support him. There are a lot of things waiting for me to handle when I get back."

Although they already knew Xu Xing's current identity on the New Year's Day, Xu Lisong and Huang Xiuzhen were still a little uncomfortable after so many days.

They felt dazed when they thought that their grandson, who was just twenty years old, was already the owner of a company valued at tens of billions.

After being reminded by Xu Xing, the two of them reacted.

Xu Lisong sighed, shook his head and said, "Okay, we understand. Don't leave in a hurry for a while. Let your grandma get some fresh vegetables and bring more back."

"Okay." Xu Xing smiled and nodded, "We will leave in a moment. Then you can help me tell my parents, uncles and aunts."

"Go ahead, go ahead, just take care of yourself and don't get too tired."

…

At seven o'clock in the morning, Xu Xing was carrying large and small bags of fresh vegetables and fruits that Huang Xiuzhen asked him to take back.

Although these things can be bought in the city, the old man feels that the ones at home are the freshest, and he must take Xu Xing back to eat.

Xu Xing didn't refuse much and took some of all kinds so that he could take them back to cook hot pot.

"Okay, okay, don't send it off. The car is over there. Let's go first." Xu Xing was carrying something in both hands, so he simply let his grandma hug him at the entrance of the hospital, and then said goodbye to the two elderly people.

Next to him, Yan Chijue also obediently said goodbye to his grandparents, dragging Xu Xing's suitcase in his hand, and followed Xu Xing towards the car parked diagonally across the street last night.

In the bedroom on the second floor, Xu Niannian stood quietly by the window, not sleeping at all, but quietly watching Xu Xing and Yan Chijue walk to the car, stuff their things into the trunk, and get in the car.

inside.

The car started, and in the winter, I was in no hurry to drive away. After warming up the engine, I slowly drove along the country road towards the town.

Xu Niannian pursed her lips and watched the car gradually go away. When she could no longer see the distance clearly, she closed her eyes, as if something in her heart had completely flown away, feeling empty.

…

Before eight o'clock in the morning, Xu Xing and Yan Chiju returned to Brilliance Home. After putting the things they brought back home, Xu Xing didn't take much rest and went to the company with Yan Chiju.

Now that Xu Xing has returned to the company, Yan Chijue went to Gong Ao to tell him, temporarily withdrew from the project team and became Xu Xing's secretary.

In fact, in the past few days, Yan Chijuan, in addition to helping in the game project team, has not forgotten his current job and has been handling secretary-related work.

Since handing over the secretary job to Peng Yuxuan years ago, Yan Chijuan has been able to handle these tasks alone.

Since there was nothing that needed to be reported recently, she just accumulated some daily items. After Xu Xing arrived at the company, she showed them to Xu Xing for review and signature.

After returning to work, time flies quickly.

So much so that Xu Xing didn't know when Xu Niannian came back in the afternoon.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Xing went out to use the restroom. When he came back, he passed by the art director's office and saw that Xu Niannian was already working inside.

Just as he was about to go in and say hello to Xu Niannian, he heard someone calling his name from behind.

"Mr. Xu!"

Xu Xing turned around and saw that it was Cheng Shaojie who was in charge of the live broadcast business of Bizhansheng.

"Huh? Why are you at the company?" Xu Xing laughed and wondered, "Why don't you take more rest at home during the Chinese New Year?"

"I don't have much time to rest now. I went home to have a New Year's Eve dinner and came back immediately." Cheng Shaojie waved his hands repeatedly, "My mind is full of the future live broadcast business of Douyu, and I don't know what the future trend will be. This

Didn't I hear that Mr. Xu is back? I'll come over to find you right away."

"Let's go and chat in my office." Xu Xing had no intention of chatting in the corridor and waved to Cheng Shaojie. He glanced at Xu Niannian who was working hard in the art director's office from the corner of his eye, then turned and walked towards his office.

The two came to the office.

Yan Chijiu made Cheng Shaojie a cup of tea, then sat obediently at the secretary's desk, not disturbing their conversation.

Xu Xing and Cheng Shaojie sat on the sofa and started chatting around the topic of Douyu Live Broadcast.

"We talked about it years ago, and the follow-up planning is also in progress. Have you encountered any problems again?" Xu Xing asked curiously.

In fact, strictly speaking, Cheng Shaojie is not an employee of Qunxing Company, but just a shareholder of Bizhan, a subsidiary of Qunxing Company.

Previously, Xu Xing directly bypassed Chen Rui and reached an agreement with Cheng Shaojie, the actual owner of Station A, to acquire most of his shares in Station A, and signed a future financing agreement in addition to the acquisition contract.

protocol.

The financing project is Douyu Live Broadcast, which has not yet been established.

If we follow the timeline of the previous life, the establishment of Douyu Live would not appear until the beginning of next year.

Prior to this, Douyu Live had always been its predecessor, which was Bizhan’s live streaming business.

Cheng Shaojie continued to accumulate live broadcast technology and operational management ideas here at Bizhan, while waiting for an opportunity.

That opportunity was at the end of 2013, when the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued 4G commercial licenses to the three major operators of China Mobile, Telecom and China Unicom.

However, due to changes in the timeline of this life, this opportunity has been advanced by several months and will appear in mid-June of this year.

A few years ago, Xu Xing got the announcement from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology that Cheng Shaojie showed him and realized that the 4G era was about to arrive half a year ahead of schedule.

Therefore, before the arrival of 4G, the Douyu Live Broadcasting Project had actually been established. Cheng Shaojie had already established a company to develop the Douyu APP, intending to seize the opportunity as soon as possible.

"Actually, my idea is, before the Douyu APP is launched on mobile phones, can we launch the PC version of Douyu first?" Cheng Shaojie rubbed his hands and asked impatiently, "You know, I have

I am in contact with some well-known anchors on other live broadcast platforms, and now I have signed some privately in advance.”

"These are all expenses in advance. After all, some anchors cannot wait for you for an extra year and a half, and there will be no such store after this village."

"But after signing the contract, it is impossible to live broadcast on the previous live broadcast platform, and our platform has not been set up yet."

"Well... although there are live broadcasts now, after all, they are affiliated with Bizhan. Live broadcasting other things on a two-dimensional website is always a bit nondescript, and it is not convenient to draw traffic from other fields."

Xu Xing probably understood what Cheng Shaojie meant, and was indifferent to his decision. He just said: "Of course the PC version is possible. If you don't do it now, you will definitely do it in the future."

After all, live streaming requires network speed and traffic. Even if live streaming on mobile phones is the trend in the future, it does not prevent the experience of watching live broadcasts on a computer from being better.

It's just that in the future, people who use computers to watch live broadcasts will do it more for the live broadcast experience, and the number will not be very large.

People who use mobile phones to watch live broadcasts just want convenience and give up the better experience of computers in exchange for the convenience of being able to watch live broadcasts at their fingertips. There will be a lot of users like this.

Since it is not possible to launch the mobile version for the time being, it is not impossible to separate the live broadcast from Bizhan and arrange the PC version of Douyu Live in advance.

only……

"You just have to be mentally prepared." Xu Xing said, "Qunxing's confidence is basically in the field of mobile Internet. If it is just a live broadcast on PC, I may not be able to help."

"It doesn't matter, I have my own way in this regard." Of course Cheng Shaojie knows the advantages of Qunxing Company. He came here today just to explain it, and by the way, he hopes to spin off the live broadcast business in advance.

He had previously done live broadcast-related business within Winger Company and had accumulated a lot on the PC side. However, after failing once before, he carefully studied the market and felt that the mobile live broadcast market would be more prosperous in the future.

This is how Douyu Live Broadcast came about.

"Okay, let me inform Chen Rui that you should discuss the specific handover matters yourself." Xu Xing said, "If you have any disagreements, come back to me then."

"Okay, thank you Mr. Xu."

After seeing off Cheng Shaojie, Xu Xing returned to the sofa and sat down, thinking about Douyu's live broadcast.

"So are we still going to do mobile live broadcast business in the future?" Yan Chijue asked curiously after recording the handover notification to Bip Station.

"It's not us." Xu Xing smiled and shook his head, "It's Cheng Shaojie's trick. We are just investors, just like Didi Taxi."

"That's about right." Yan Chijue said, "As you said before, with WeChat here, once you rely on our WeChat, many products will be impossible to get rid of."

"This is not so absolute, but in the early development stage of the product, WeChat does have absolute dominance and influence." Xu Xing leaned on the sofa, twisted his neck, rested for a while, and then talked to Yan Chi Ji

Chatting, "What do you think about the live broadcast?"

"It's nothing. It's just that I occasionally see advertisements for live broadcast platforms on my computer. They all seem to be live broadcasts by beautiful women. It doesn't feel good." Yan Chijiu's voice became quieter as he talked.

This kind of content is also a bit shy and embarrassing.

"Well, beauty live streaming is also an important part, but the main direction is game live streaming."

"Game live broadcast?" Yan Chijuan asked curiously, "Will anyone really watch it? For example, Fruit Assassin or something like that. Watching other people cut fruit all the time is pretty boring, right?"

"Well, of course it's not about cutting fruits, the focus is on looking like..." Xu Xing laughed a little, but as he spoke, he suddenly fell silent and realized some problems.

"What, what's wrong?" Yan Chijie suddenly became nervous when he saw that he suddenly stopped talking, "Is there any problem?"

"Well... there may be something wrong."

Xu Xing touched his chin and suddenly realized something he had ignored before.

When it comes to the most popular content on the live broadcast platform, in later generations, the subcategories are all kinds of weird and extremely rich.

But in the current network environment, especially games.

You can find a variety of stand-alone games with exciting plots and high-quality gameplay, or various popular online games.

But if we just talk about the live broadcast effect and long-term expectations, then maybe there is only one game worthy of praise.

But unfortunately, this game does not belong to Stars.

"If League of Legends is missing, what kind of live streaming will we be doing?"

Xu Xing touched his chin and frowned.

Although Douyu Live is a company founded by Cheng Shaojie, it has received financing from Qunxing after all.

If Tencent invests in other live broadcast companies in the future, will it directly cut off Douyu’s live broadcast business on the grounds of League of Legends’ copyright?

Thinking of this, Xu Xing immediately jumped up from the sofa and sat back on the office chair. While recording his thoughts, he thought about whether there was any plan to deal with this situation if it happened.

After more than ten minutes of contemplation, Xu Xing suddenly raised his head, looked at Yan Chijiu, and said:

"Jiujiu, help me call Gong Ao over."

"Um, ah?" Yan Chijue was stunned for a moment, then stood up and asked, "What are you talking about?"

"About another new game."

Xu Xing crossed his arms and gradually calmed down.

In later generations, there was such a game, although it later failed to successfully challenge LOL in terms of tournament influence.

But as far as the live broadcast effect is concerned, it is definitely not far behind, and it was even suspected of surpassing LOL at one time.

Xu Xing had this plan before, but as 4G approached, Xu Xing put all his focus on "The Myth Comes to the World".

Now that we have encountered problems that may occur in the future in advance, it is not impossible to take precautions.
