Chapter 167: Not in line with values

Of course, Yang Jiangang is a little depressed these days, not only is the plan to sell himself rejected by Chu Yuanxi, but it is not that there is no follow-up from Xiaopo Station, and he has not directly looked for Chu Yuanxi, mainly because he feels that Chu Yuanxi suddenly doesn't bury him much.

It's not that Yang Jiangang suffers from nailing disease, and he has to listen to a few words of scolding to enjoy it, but after Chu Yuanxi became polite, he felt uncomfortable, and then felt hesitant. Nominal independence, financing and financial emancipation are not valid as the black-and-white clauses in the incubation agreement.

It made him feel as if he had missed a great opportunity. Sometimes he also asks himself, he is now stronger than two years ago, I don't know how much, whether it is personal ability and prestige, or worth and future, two years ago was far stronger than the era of Pengfei Technology, and now compared with two years ago, it is upside down, but why hasn't he become happy?

Is it because he didn't buy a villa and save a girl as blatantly as Chu Yuanxi? No, but he was more hesitant about his career. Originally, he was just an old salted fish foraging in a shallow pond, and he had no ambition and no desire, but now he has swam into the big rivers and seen a large number of opportunities for fish to jump into the dragon gate, but what about the path he chose?

At first, I thought it was good, because the old salted fish can get a chance to start a business itself is good, not to mention that I still like to do it, and now, because I have eaten and seen, the amount of information intake is not the same as my past self, not to mention the contacts I have made, so I often find better opportunities, greater prospects, or easier to succeed, but I can't do it.

So sometimes he really wants to start a second business directly like Chu Yuanxi, isn't it impressive? But his intuition tells him that his ability to eat dry rice is not enough, so he has not dropped the SAN value.

Sometimes Zhao Jie also persuaded him, you have done this thing first, and then you think about whether anything else can be done? At that time, he will use Chu Yuanxi as an example to refute, don't you see that Chu Yuanxi didn't start to be well-off without doing it?

Then the topic gets weird, because different people have different opinions on what constitutes success. At this time, Zhao Jie would sarcastically say to him, saying that when Chu Yuanxi was well-off, the Ba people already had a monthly income of hundreds of millions, how else do you want to succeed?

And of course, he also has something to say - Xiaokang was registered in May 2018, and at that time, even the TCG mobile game was not online!

Of course, the relationship between the two of them and Yu Wenhui is also good, but Yu Wenhui does not have the resume of Pengfei Technology, and he and Zhao Jie are old colleagues.

In short, life has to go on, and the peak visual effects have not been without development in the past few months, and the current daily activity has long exceeded 1 million, and it can be regarded as emerging in the domestic platform, of course, if you calculate the user time, it is still a small character in the video platform.

The crux lies in the amount of content, many users chase a drama, click on favorites without squinting, and then finish watching it. The community is not deserted, but most of them are made by the grandmother's speech, and audience users rarely participate.

The peak visual effects is a UGC platform, and there are only a few animations officially produced, so the early speed must be slow, it can be said that after only a year of development, the daily activity can reach one million, which is definitely the effect of the Ba Ren Group's desperate milk.

This point is obvious when compared with the initial period of Kuaishou, Station B, and Duanzi. Although Chu Yuanxi didn't tell Yang Jiangang, he didn't vomit a lot with others, and there were no Ba people to do the operation, and the first year of peak visual effects was not a question of how many DAUs there were, not from one million to 100,000 or 10,000, but a question of where to find UGC users, and there was no chance of development at all.

Even now, because Ba people never operate for the "peak visual effects community", audience users rarely participate. Of course, the characteristics of peak visual effects also have an impact, because the production method is too unique, ordinary users can't participate in the creative communication of the grandma masters, and can only praise and disparage the content.

In this state, the second season of "Enemies of Rome" was launched, and along with the warm-up of the mobile game, Mediterranean Games suddenly entered a tense state, and it also infected the island apes of Suzuki Yu's team, and they increased their efforts to work overtime.

At this time, Chu Yuanxi's headache is that the well-off Southeast Asia, that is, Elizabeth's side must inject capital, the question is how to bet, who will bet. This is the planned capital injection, referring to the financing rhythm of the well-off last year, in fact, it is not bad, the well-off will do Pre_A in March, and the A round in August, and Southeast Asia will be exactly one year apart.

To a certain extent, Elizabeth needs money more, and the lack of financing will affect the already difficult development situation. In particular, Elizabeth has to continue to spend money on some well-off things that have already paid a large amount of money, and she can't fully enjoy the fruits of the well-off, saying that for example, the map function is a hard R&D expenditure.

The development of maps is not only a matter of cost, but also of "freshness". What is freshness? That is, the map needs to reflect the real-time geomorphology, and the "now" map needs to be surveyed, that is to say, after the measurement is completed, the local government project will be carried out, and the previous one will be done in vain......

In this way, the cost of maintenance and renewal is Schrödinger's, and the pursuit of high precision and high quality is a huge challenge. Although Xiaokang does not spur himself to the requirements of electronic map developers, the trend of strategically betting on the city's treasures is extremely obvious, so the money is not much to spend.

In addition, the cloud is also a highlight.

To say that the map is only a passive investment, the cloud field is active to enter the game, but to enter the game, you have to spend money, which is something that cannot be run.

Similarly, the cloud also has regional attributes, and it is difficult for domestic cloud resources to supply the cloud market in Southeast Asia.

And the Southeast Asian market is definitely a must for the competition.

You must know that from a global point of view, Amazon Cloud is a well-deserved banba, with a monopoly of 45% of the market share, followed by 18% of Microsoft Cloud, and the gap is absolute. As for Alibaba Cloud and Penguin Cloud, although they are ranked third and fifth, with Google Cloud in between, the absolute number is too small, and the three together are barely comparable to Microsoft.

But this is not the case in the Asia-Pacific market, where Alibaba Cloud ranks first, 28%, and Amazon ranks second with less than 18%, and the battle between the two sides is currently heating up. The Asia-Pacific market is mainly Southeast Asia, which is the world's fastest-growing cloud market.

This is also the reason why Chu Yuanxi is willing to spend money to cultivate a well-off Southeast Asia, as long as the well-off block cloud can be developed, even if nothing else, it is a profitable deal. The number of users and demographic dividend in Southeast Asia are not direct factors for other cloud computing companies, but they are natural assists for the well-off, and the vast world has a lot to do.

But at least a data center is essential, and that's a lot of money. Chu Yuanxi was even a little reluctant to pay this money, hoping that Elizabeth would lease cloud resources as a metronome for startup in the future, and she could return the lease after the block cloud matured.

Now it's just a matter of how to bet the money. According to the original plan, of course, it is a well-off sole proprietorship, but the world is changing too fast and too big, recently Chu Yuanxi and Elizabeth have communicated about the issue of early release, of course she is in favor of raising her hands and feet, so of course the well-off side will also switch to the incubation mode.

It wasn't an incubation before. Elizabeth's status to the well-off is far less than that of Yang Jiangang to the Ba people when he was doing the peak visual effects, Yang Jiangang's kind of is called incubation, with equity and options. And Elizabeth has no equity, which is equivalent to Zhao Jie and Lu Yu in the Ba Ren game and Ba Ren information, and the position is called the manager, and the manager with options is only.

But what makes Chu Yuanxi a headache is that Elizabeth still does not have the ability to attract investment, and no one dares to invest money in her own connections, so during this time, she frantically opened up new contacts and relied on the existing scale of well-off Southeast Asia to find the support of local consortiums.

It's just that Chu Yuanxi feels that he mainly has to help himself, who is the headache to look for? Even Zhao Zhujiang refused...... His gaze couldn't help but turn to the direction where Ali was.

In fact, it is not that the well-off cannot finance this money, if you feel that you are short of money, the loan is, with the current assets of the well-off, with the state's policy of supporting small and medium-sized enterprises, it is not particularly difficult to make a loan.

It's just that Chu Yuanxi's personal style is particularly reluctant to make loans, which is completely different from those veterans who have been running businesses for many years. The old-timers must be able to make loans when they see that they can do it, and the utilization rate of funds must reach the limit, or even surpass, to show their ability.

But Chu Yuan Xiyuan is forced to that part and is also very cautious about loans, on the one hand, he is really young and inexperienced, and on the other hand, he shows his immaturity, and in a beautified way, it is called awe of unfamiliar fields. The main reason is that some listed companies are capable to the point where they cannot pay on time, the stock price flash crash is full of lawsuits, and the short-term borrowings and current liabilities are high, and it is simply not like they want to do it. He has always been in the fog and does not understand the true meaning of this phenomenon, so he is wary.

But relatively, Chu Yuanxi is good at financing, even if it is to help others do financing......

Therefore, Lao Fan was very surprised to receive a WeChat message from Chu Yuanxi, but how did the discussion of investing in a well-off subsidiary look so awkward?

In fact, it's not impossible to talk about it. After all, it is an investment in offshore projects, and Xiaokang Southeast Asia will also develop as an independent company in the future, even if it must be controlled by Chu Yuanxi, the party is still very interested, and it is not impossible to treat it as a pure financial investment. But this one chooses ......

"Chu Yuanxi, we can't vote for you, this is not in line with our values. ”

"Lao Fan, don't mention the word 'values' to the outside world for a while, right?"

Chu Yuanxi saw Lao Fan's refusal so quickly, of course he knew that this was his own meaning and not Ali's. Therefore, he replied quickly: "Values need to be consistent, not towels thrown in the footbath and picked up and wiped when needed." Why don't you hire the procedural ape who grabbed the moon cake and got it back first?"

Lao Fan was so angry that his hands began to tremble, and he said in his heart, do you want to talk or not? But being slapped in the face can't refute it, so he can only send three angry expressions in a row!

However, the atmosphere also became delicate, because Chu Yuanxi didn't mean to ask anyone, it was nothing more than that I fulfilled my obligation to notify, and I decided whether to vote or not.

It is precisely because of this that people are itching in their hearts, because Southeast Asia is a place to fight, more than Africa and India, because Africa and India are far away and the other is resistant.

If you are far away, you will have to fight a long-term struggle against the old imperial colonialism, and if you have a strong resistance, you may be sniped by non-commercial forces, and you will not see that the merger between Sprint and T-Mobile, which Sun Dasheng has been thinking about for eight years, was finally approved in February this year? Even because of the censorship, Daishoning has not gotten the two Uber board seats it should have gotten a long time ago.

But Southeast Asia is just right, although there is still a lot of resistance, but it is not desperate, and it is Ali's biggest focus outside the dynasty. In particular, the cloud business has caught up with the domestic growth rate in the Southeast Asian market.

Therefore, now you only need to move your fingers to type a few words to reject Chu Yuanxi, but if Xiaokang Southeast Asia is as solid and explosive as Xiaokang in China, then wouldn't Alibaba Cloud have one more enemy and one less friend in Southeast Asia? The charm of Xiaokang is not only social and payment, but also has great potential in block cloud, otherwise Wu Wei would not have given a valuation of 55 billion at the beginning.

Why is it that in Lao Fan's concept now, Xiaokang is now "solid and explosive"? Because the potential of the block cloud is the first to be realized!

This starts with the well-off integration of fresh front warehouses.

The integration of fresh food front warehouses into self-pickup points, many people think that this is Xiaokang is contributing to mobile payment, and even increasing user density for social networking, but in fact, the only one in so many business lines of Xiaokang is linearly related to the number of users. If there is a user who opens the city treasure to obtain health coins, the well-off block cloud will have more power, and the fresh food start-up directly doubles the number of users who supply health coins, and the online time is even ×3.

Many people, including Xu Xin, underestimate this batch of fresh e-commerce, but after the data came out, she immediately realized that fresh e-commerce users are usually price-sensitive users, that is, users who are always subsidized, because as soon as the subsidy stops, these users will flash people, therefore, the batch of fresh e-commerce that Chu Yuanxi has eaten has a common label, and they are all start-ups on the road of subsidizing users.

This kind of user is best suited for health coins to detoxify.

First, the transfer of block cloud resources from traditional cloud resources to the Internet of Gaming does require the assistance and coordination of blockchain Siege Lion, and now the number and quality of users have been improved, and it is already possible to shift the demand for some cloud resources to the Internet of Networks.

The second is that they need to do some traditional database siege lion work, which is really too busy......

Therefore, when the third-party mobile data platform gives the latest data of Xiaokang, many people in the market exclaim: "Impossible!"

But the sound is not as straightforward as before, because Talking Data, Baidu Data, and App Annie rarely make mistakes at the same time, and the continuous upward curve of Baidu's search index is also telling.

At this time, the people who are most concerned about the well-off in the market are divided into three categories, the first type is to quickly look for fresh e-commerce to seek mergers and acquisitions, which is rich and powerful, but it is a shortcoming brain, and Chu Yuanxi wants to remind them.

You must know that when a blind person touches an elephant, the result of each blind person is different, so people like Chu Yuanxi and Xu Xin who can see the whole picture can know how it came and went by looking at the results, and know that it is the health coin that is just coupled with the price-sensitive users obtained by fresh e-commerce startups, so the data exploded.

But what do outsiders see? It is Xiaokang that has acquired a bunch of fresh e-commerce, completed the integration of the front warehouse to the self-pickup point, and then the data exploded, not only doubling the number of active users, but also the online time has increased so much that I dare not believe it and cannot believe it.

The most unbelievable thing for the unbelievers is that Annie actually purchased the cloud service of the well-off block cloud. The news threw a meteorite on the hearts of some people......

"Check it out for me! What the hell is going on! Why would such a big Annie purchase an unstable service! They themselves admit that it is not completely stable, how can they sell it!" In the corner of the imperial capital, Mei Duo's Xiao Zhang is always roaring in the spacious and bright office, which can already be regarded as Annie's endorsement of the data of the well-off.

However, the results of the investigation showed that Xiaokang did not use any off-the-market tricks, but directly communicated with Annie's senior management. The other party is engaged in third-party data services, and is of course interested in innovative models and innovative technologies, because that is likely to change the industry pattern, and if it is true, it will affect a large number of data collection work.

Therefore, when Xiaokang gradually shifted the use of cloud resources from the data center to the block cloud, Annie was very interested in buying a part, and what more direct way to verify than to experience the other party's service in person?

At this time, Xiaokang began to sell the cloud resources of the data center, which was very traditional, and he didn't plan to sell the block cloud, but Chu Yuanxi felt the sincerity of the other party. Moreover, the vice president of sales of the other party is still from a social game background, not only has a common language, but also is very interested in the treasures of the well-off, and sees the social potential of the well-off. Chu Yuanxi had a good conversation with the other party, so he nodded half-way and agreed to provide a part of the block cloud for the other party to try.

But this result made Meiduo quite reluctant to believe it, of course, the most important thing was that the mood of "I can do it too" was brewing, so he shot angrily.

Therefore, when he learned that Meiduo was looking for a suitable fresh e-commerce target in the market, he especially wanted to post a paragraph on Weibo or something, what is your old man buying fresh e-commerce......?

But thinking about it, the words of loyalty are destined to be reversed, not to mention the leader of the alliance of refusers who have prejudices against themselves?
