Chapter 886: The International Market Depends on You

"Mr. Ma, you can't stand by and watch and look forward to it, in fact, I came to you today, not just to borrow someone, in fact, I have a very important thing to talk to you about. ”

"What is a very important matter?" Ma Jiahao asked with some confusion.

"In this case, in addition to the live TV broadcast of our press conference, we also hope to be able to do a live webcast at the same time. Hu Mingchen said.

"What do you mean...... Let's do this webcast with Penguin?"

Hu Mingchen snapped his fingers: "Guess right, that's what it means, now you are one of the largest Internet companies in China, except for you, I really can't think of anyone else who can complete it." ”

"In fact, if you just participate in the live broadcast, it is not difficult, you only need to open a small module on the Penguin network, and then turn the live broadcast screen of the national TV station, and our live broadcast is the signal of the national TV station. This problem can be solved in two days. Ma Jiahao thought it was a big deal, but he didn't expect it to be such a small pediatric.

"Hehe, Mr. Ma, there are hundreds of millions of penguin users in China, but how many views does Penguin have on the website? If it's just as simple as you say, why should I come to you in person, you say yes?" Hu Mingchen looked at Ma Jiahao and laughed softly.

"Penguin.com still gets 5 million to 10 million views a day. Ma Jiahao touched his head and said.

"It sounds like a lot of money, but there are a lot of people who should apply for a Penguin account, and I believe that there will be a discount for those who actually browse the web, and don't forget, I am also one of the customers of Penguin Technology. Objectively speaking, the browsing of Penguin.com is not as good as the previous two major portals. Hu Mingchen said.

Hu Mingchen is talking about his own experience, and his experience tells him that in addition to applying for and handling business related to Penguin, the proportion of customers who really use Penguin.com as a portal to browse is actually not large.

Since Hu Mingchen came forward to talk to Ma Jiahao in person, of course, it could not be such a simple request.

"Then what do you mean ......"

"I have two points that I need to discuss with you, remember, it is a negotiation, and there is absolutely no strong demand, even if Xingsheng Development is the largest shareholder of Penguin Technology. Hu Mingchen stretched out two fingers and said.

"You say. Ma Jiahao asked solemnly.

Although Hu Mingchen said that it was just a discussion, and also took the initiative to rule out the fact that Penguin Technology is the largest shareholder. However, Ma Jiahao is not a fool, how can this kind of thing be taken completely seriously, the more Hu Mingchen takes the initiative to rule it out, the more the actual situation cannot be ignored.

Xingsheng Development is the largest shareholder of Penguin Technology and the controlling shareholder of Pengbo Electronics. Even if they do not have a controlling stake in Penguin Technology, the largest shareholder itself has a great right to speak, and even if this right to speak has never been exercised, it does not mean that it does not exist.

"First, the live broadcast I am talking about, in addition to opening a live broadcast window on the Penguin network, I hope that there can be a push for all Penguin users, that is, once their Penguin number is logged in, it will be accompanied by a live broadcast window of push, unless they take the initiative to turn it off, otherwise, the live broadcast signal will be displayed directly. Of course, it would be nice if the editors could have some attractive advertising words. Mr. Ma, is this difficult to do?" Hu Mingchen said directly.

"This ...... Although it doesn't conform to our operating procedures, it is not technically difficult, we have received similar advertising pushes, and our company rarely chooses to ensure the cleanliness and comfort of our products. Ma Jiahao's left hand tapped on the armrest of the sofa.

"That means it can be done, but let's say it first, Pengbo Electronics has no money, so the advertising fee should be deferred. Hu Mingchen spread his hands and said.

"I didn't say I was going to take money. ”

"Mr. Ma, one yard to one yard, favor to favor, business to business, not to mention, Penguin Technology in addition to us, there are other shareholders, I can't make it difficult for you, you as the CEO, but also like other shareholders of all sizes, so we will definitely pay this advertising fee, but now the book is difficult, if Pengbo Electronics does not have a hit this time, then the advertising service will be deducted from the dividends of prosperous development. Hu Mingchen said seriously.

Hu Mingchen is a person who likes to take advantage, but correspondingly, he will not take advantage of many advantages.

Ma Jiahao can mobilize resources to help, even if it is good, if it is free, if some shareholders think about it, Ma Jiahao is not easy to respond. Although he is in charge of the company, strictly speaking, he is only an agent, and the company does not belong to him, he only enjoys a part of it.

"Okay, thank you for your kindness and understanding, but we coordinate with the departments below to charge a preferential price, how to say that you are also the largest shareholder of Penguin Technology, this privilege should be enjoyed. Even if other shareholders knew, they wouldn't have anything to say. Ma Jiahao nodded and said, "Now you tell me the second point, if I guess correctly, your second point is probably more difficult, right?"

Dealing with smart people is worry-free, Ma Jiahao has mastered Hu Mingchen's routine of first making it easy and then making it difficult, which also saves a lot of Hu Mingchen's tongue.

"Mr. Ma is really wise, and the second point is indeed much more difficult than the first point. In this way, although the national TV station helps us live broadcast, Penguin Technology also helps us, but it goes without saying that the scope of these two pieces is mainly biased towards the domestic market, Penguin Technology does not have many overseas customers, and the coverage of the national TV station abroad and the number of viewing customers are not so high, which makes our communication penetration still insufficient, and the early customers of our product are mainly positioned in international customers, so it is necessary to strengthen the publicity of the international market. Hu Mingchen said.

"Didn't you ask a lot of foreign media to attend the press conference?" Ma Jiahao asked.

"Yes, but after two days of contact, the response was not so good, and some foreign media reporters in China were contacted, perhaps our company is too unknown and there are few applicants. As for those media that do not have reporter stations and editorial teams in our country, especially some professional media in related fields, they have not even responded to emails. That's why I thought of asking you for help on the premise of making sure it was safe. ”

"But what can I do, you know the spread of Penguin Technology abroad, in addition to the layout and involvement of several surrounding regions, in Europe and the United States, we don't have much foothold in today's book, and I can't help it." Ma Jiahao said helplessly.

"Of course I know that, so it's more difficult. However, you should have something to do with several major foreign Internet companies, and I plan to ask you to help me contact several major companies such as YouTube and Facebook and Microsoft, and I want to use their platforms to do some promotion. Hu Mingchen said his request.

"Mr. Hu, you are really embarrassing for me. YouTube and Facebook are okay to say, you can make your own videos and broadcast them on them, but Microsoft ...... I'm afraid people won't want to look at us squarely, but you probably want to use MSN and do the same push as Penguin, right? I think it's really difficult. What's more, there is also a language issue involved, you can't use English all the way during the new product launch, right?" Ma Jiahao said with a frown.

"Of course it's impossible, in that case, the TV station won't do it, not to mention the domestic market, we haven't said to give up, just to say in stages. If only self-made films are broadcast on foreign audio and video platforms, the effect will be greatly reduced, and they must help them, at least, we must have a good position and recommendation. As for Microsoft, you're right, I'm really borrowing MSN, I don't think Gates should be such a narrow-minded person, their biggest competitor in China is you, you come to the door, he said that he will give you some face. I'm sure Mr. Gates will be a happy person to work with. By the way, there is also Ad--wo on the ancient dog company

DS ads and Yahoo also need to be inked. All in all, I'm counting on you for my publicity to foreign customers now. As for the language, I think it can be translated in the background, and a little time difference is acceptable. English, French, and even Japanese can find good translators, of course, the cost is still paid by Pengbo Electronics. Hu Mingchen said.

"Let's not talk about the technical difficulty, most of what you said is to pay a lot of advertising fees, I'm curious, you can't even pay the advertising fees on Penguin Technology, how can you have the money to do such a big international publicity, how much do you plan to spend on this?" Ma Jiahao asked curiously.

"I can tell you very bluntly that Pengbo Electronics has long run out of money, and it can't afford to make such R&D and marketing investment just by relying on that foundry business. All this money is out of my own pocket, and I have already sold some shares of Ah Niu Company for this campaign. You don't know, I am reluctant to sell the shares of Ah Niu Company, and I am also dripping blood in my heart. In fact, for every 100 million I sell now, my actual loss is more than a billion. Hu Mingchen said to Ma Jiahao without concealment.

"How many shares do you hold?"

"I can only tell you that we are the third largest shareholder of Aniu Company, and so far our shares are worth almost billions of dollars based on market capitalization, and if we continue to hold them, then they will come back into tens of billions or more. Of course, we've sold 200 million, which means we've lost 2 billion. That's why I'm going to put a pressure on your advertising fees, and I really don't have the money to pay you right away for the time being. ”

"Meaning, you invested a lot of money to buy Ah Niu when it was just listed?" Ma Jiahao smacked.

The reason why Ma Jiahao asked this is because the stock price of Aniu Company has risen more than ten times from when it was first listed to the present.

"Pretty much. Hu Mingchen said with ambiguity.
