"What a big deal. The financial industry is so rotten and stinky, what big thing can happen?" Chen Xi shook his head when he thought of those shady operations in his previous life.
Some of the private rules in this industry are really messy and ridiculous, especially the supervision, which is almost zero.
"Haha, it seems that you are not very optimistic about certain departments. At this conference, some entrepreneurs will stand up and say a few words. You can also go up and give a speech."
“Me? Let me forget it. What do they want to say? So what if they say it? It will cause unnecessary trouble. I don’t want to cause trouble for you.”
“It’s okay. When the time comes, go to the meeting and see what those people will say. It’s not too late to make a decision...” Feng Jialun. He touched his chin and kept looking at Chen Xi. The weird look in his eyes made him feel a little nervous.
"This little girlfriend of yours is quite beautiful. The hotels under the Jiangnan Group are very famous in first-tier cities across the country, especially in Shanghai. With the acquisition of Qiye this time, it might become the number one hotel company in the country in the future. One." Feng Jialun turned his attention to Zhao Lingshan again.
"Brother Feng, you are too polite. Ours is just a small company, and it is still far behind the number one company." Zhao Lingshan replied modestly.
"It's incredible. If you two get married in the future, it will be a powerful alliance. You will graduate in about a year. Have you decided on your development direction after returning to China?"
< br>"Ah, I've thought about it..."
Chen Xi hesitated to speak. He wanted to restart the project in Huajing in his previous life, but he was also considering whether to cooperate with Feng Jialun.
"Well, let's talk about this after you graduate. We'll go to the meeting tomorrow." Seeing that Chen Xi didn't want to talk more, Feng Jialun nodded and ended the topic.
Out of the office building, Chen Xi lit a cigarette on the roadside, took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Jiang Yun.
"This man is really weird. Why do you think he wants to help you? And he also does so much business overseas." Zhao Lingshan suppressed her doubts.
“How did I know that when investors invest in projects, they first look at the theme of the project and secondly look at the other person’s advantages. Maybe I take into account both.”
“ You are so pretty, I always feel that he has an ulterior motive." Zhao Lingshan reached out and hit him.
"Don't always be suspicious. He must have a purpose, but it also depends on whether it is good for me or bad. If it is good for me, then everyone can continue to cooperate." Chen Xi took a deep breath from the cigarette and picked up the phone to make a call. Made a phone call.
Not long after, Jiang Yun’s car drove over.
Now he is also the boss of the branch, and he has even bought a car. At his age and in Huajing, it can be said that he has unlimited glory.
"Master, Mistress, please get in the car." Jiang Yun reacted quickly. When he saw Zhao Lingshan, whom he had never met before, he immediately thought of a name and opened the door for her.
Zhao Lingshan looked at this clever man and immediately smiled.
"How is the media company doing?" Chen Xi asked Jiang Yun while playing with Zhao Lingshan's hand in the car.
"Master, you see I already drive an Audi, do you still need to ask? I have done everything you asked me to do."
"Don't be complacent, technology is constantly developing. Advertising is also changing. My family was originally engaged in outdoor advertising. Look at the advertising screens all over the streets now. Every webpage you open on your computer and The software is full of promotional posters for various products, and there may be new changes in a few years."
"Ah? Master, are you too worried? I really can't think of anything to do with it in the future. What changes can there be?" Jiang Yun didn't quite understand what Chen Xi was talking about. According to his understanding, if the advertising industry changes again, it will take at least several decades.
“As you know from foreign Youtube, you need to watch ads before you can enter the video you want to watch after opening it. This is a change. Maybe there will be some software for daily life videos in the future, similar to the daily pictures on Facebook. The video kind..."
"Master, how much data does it cost to watch videos on your mobile phone? Most people can't afford it. Besides, video cards on mobile phones are so bad now that no one will watch it."
"I saw you last time. When you were young, you were still very smart. Why are you so stupid now? Have you lived your good life for too long? Have you become dull? I think you should go to a branch in a remote area to exercise."
"Don't...don't, young master, I talk about orders with the bosses of various companies every day, now is the time to think about these things. Not much, but I will make good adjustments..." Jiang Yun immediately begged for mercy after hearing Chen Xi's words.
“I just made an appointment with Mr. I can’t even afford it.”
"We will give him free advertising to revitalize God, and then use their online advertising fees to make up for it..."
"..." Jiang Yun didn't know what to say after hearing this. It sounds like a loss-making deal.
But he will do whatever the young master says. This is what a good subordinate should do.
In an office building, Xing Tian sat on the boss's chair and looked out through the glass at the empty office, feeling very helpless.
I think the Tianya Forum was so powerful back then, but with the rise of other websites and the stricter network management, some of the content in their forums have been removed from the shelves, which makes those who originally wanted to find excitement Everyone left disappointed.
The OMG forum used to have several popular sections. The supernatural section, game section, funny picture section and novel section were the most popular among users.
But now no one cares about the supernatural area and picture area due to policy reasons.
In the novel section, after the rise of several major novel websites, there are no more authors submitting articles.
In my previous life, the forum could have been popular for a few more years thanks to the blindfold scandal. However, the appearance of Chen Xi changed everything.
A few years ago, the company still had hundreds of millions of dollars in funds on its books. Xing Tian was very high-spirited and prepared to go public. Now he is so miserable that even the company can hardly survive. This is simply a world of difference.
"Why aren't you here? I'm really anxious." Xing Tian looked outside the glass again and anxiously lit a cigarette, trying to relieve his irritable mood.
"Master, we have been sitting here for twenty minutes, why haven't we got up yet?" In the parking lot, Jiang Yun looked through the rearview mirror and asked Chen Xi, who was flirting with Zhao Lingshan in the back seat. .
"Oh? It's been so long. Let's go upstairs. The guy must be waiting impatiently."
"..."
Chen Xi looked at it Looking at the time, it was almost time, so he opened the car door.
"Oh, Mr. Chen, you are here." A few minutes later, Xing Tian suddenly stood up from the boss's chair and walked quickly to the door. Seeing how this former Internet leader was so polite to a young guy like him, Chen Xi couldn't help but want to laugh, but he calmed down his emotions and shook hands with the other person: "Mr. Xing, I was just talking elsewhere, come here. Sorry for the delay.”
What a conversation, obviously flirting with a woman in the car. I also want to learn from the young master's acting skills.
Jiang Yun couldn't help complaining in his heart.
"It's okay, it's okay. Just come and invite me." Xing Tian made an inviting gesture to the sofa and poured the tea himself.
"Mr. Xing, where are you..." Looking at the empty company, Chen Xi asked knowingly.
“Oh, it’s already off-duty time, so I let them go. Forcing employees to work overtime is not what a good boss should do.”
Haha, you can pretend better than me .
Chen Xi looked at Xing Tian who was pretending to be X, but did not expose it.
“Mr.
"Ah? This... what does our forum have to do with the media company?" Xing Tian looked confused.
“Oh my God, the forum has little exposure now. There should be very few new users. Sooner or later, the old users will disappear one by one. This is not the way to go. If you want people to know about your website, just It must be vigorously promoted.”
“Well, what Mr. Chen said makes sense, but now the content of our website seems to be attracting attention. It won’t attract young people.”
“Then change it and replace all the previous administrators. I’ve seen your forum. The administrators are old-school and don’t know what they are doing every day. People who stay here just work and fish. The website needs innovation. Your novel section has great potential, but there is no royalties. The author has worked hard. KuCiaZi is not here to drink from the northwest wind. The original authors may have uploaded some articles on a whim, but without income, many people would not have the motivation to serialize them, which also resulted in your forum being full of short stories. Novels, and most of them are in a state of discontinuation. Due to review reasons, some scientific explanations can be added, so that it can be convenient. Just publish it. As for that funny picture, it can be turned into a paid emoticon DIY workshop, and the author will benefit from the copyright sale. Users can download it, so as to stimulate others to create..."
"I Oh my god, Mr. Chen, your words really opened the door to a new world for me." Xing Tian spilled all the tea in the cup with excitement.
Everything on the OMG forum is basically free. Apart from recharging to get points to upgrade the level and force the installation of X, the only profit is from advertising. Chen Xi’s idea is undoubtedly to change the Tianya Forum to a charging model.
But all these reforms require a lot of money to maintain. Judging from the current funds on the company's account, if nothing is done, it can only last for another month, and Xingtian is still outside He was anxious to death because he owed money.
"Don't worry, I haven't finished talking yet. When we first met, I talked to you about the Returnees Association. I now announce that the Returnees Association has officially cooperated with Tianya Forum. As for I don’t know if Mr. Xing has thought about the acquisition of Tianya Forum that we talked about before coming here.”
“Of course, I have already thought about it, Mr. Chen. The price you offered is very fair, and my position has not changed. The most important thing is that the name of the forum has not been changed. This is the most important thing to me. I don’t want to change the name of the company I worked so hard to build. In fact, before. Someone has wanted to acquire us for a long time, but at that time, the forum was booming..." Xing Tian stood up and shook hands with Chen Xi excitedly.
Finally, the external debts can be cleared.
If I had known...
I should have sold the Tianya Forum before...
This is what Xing Tian is thinking about now.
However, the good ideas Chen Xi brought to him rekindled hope in the boss's heart.
After all, who wouldn’t want to seize the opportunity to make a comeback!
"Master, isn't it too much for you to spend 20 million to buy it?"
More than two hours later, the three of them walked out of the office building, and it wasn't until they got into the car that Jiang Yun couldn't help but say.
"Not much. You know, others used to pay hundreds of millions to buy it." Chen Xi waved his hand.
“But it was very popular at that time, but now it is just a broken website that is about to close down.”
“First, my God, it is worth the price. Second, Xingtian still has foreign debts. If you don’t help him, who will have the energy to work?”
"But, Master, we still need to continue to invest money in this forum. Will it be profitable?"
"Hey, don't keep thinking about how much money this project can make in the short term. Just turn on your phone and click on a large Websites, nine out of ten of these websites are losing money You have to think about how to use it well, and then combine it with other projects... The early Tianya Forum relied on online advertising, value-added services, and online and offline activities to increase revenue..."
Chen Xi introduced Tianya’s previous profit model to Jiang Yun.
Online advertising is divided into focus advertising and traditional advertising placements.
With its huge popularity and precise user positioning, Tianya Forum has become the first choice of major advertisers. Enterprises can choose appropriate advertising positions according to their own characteristics and use the high-quality discussion environment of the forum to allow brands and consumer groups to interact with each other. This focus advertising model is not only efficient, but also more accurate than traditional advertising, so it has become the first source of income for Tianya Forum.
As for value-added services, it is a VIP membership system. Members can enjoy more privileges and services, such as priority viewing and content publishing, thereby increasing the platform’s revenue sources.
As well as paid reading, some high-quality content or in-depth articles are set as paid reading to meet the specific needs of users. Well, this high-quality content used to be sidelined to attract people.
There are other virtual goods that can also be purchased for a fee, but they are not very attractive.
Tianya Forum often likes to hold various online and offline activities, such as offline gatherings, online topic discussions, etc. These activities not only enhance user stickiness, but also bring additional revenue to the platform through ticket sales, sponsorship cooperation, etc. But with the decline of the platform, offline activities have long been cancelled.
Chen Xi plans to cooperate with the Overseas Returnees Association, and then integrate the resources of Wushang to build an overseas e-commerce. Then use Tianya Forum to implement data analysis and precision marketing.
However, all this is just laying the foundation for future projects in Huajing.
What he wants is not something that can directly make money, but to prepare modules that can be combined one by one like building blocks.
Future opponents are too powerful, and we must find partners who can withstand them.
Chen Xi once thought that if Abba Abba won the project, he would definitely be beaten to the ground by the other party, let alone him at that time.
He and Feng Yun were like ants in front of each other. (End of chapter)
