Chapter 106: Playing in the Deep Market
"Mr. Zhuo, I see that you don't have a camera, or I'll take you to buy a camera first, although there is a shopping street in the window of the world, there should be no cameras for sale. "This Liu Qin is quite good at coming to things, and when he got on the road, he found that they didn't bring a camera, so he offered to take them to buy it.
When boarding the plane from Dragon City, Zhuo Ziyuan regretted a little that he didn't buy a camera, although the current smart camera is not very dripping, but it is better than nothing, and the SLR Zhuo Ziyuan is too troublesome, he is not an enthusiast, there is no need to study so much.
Li Xinyuan listened to Liu Qin's words, and also looked at Zhuo Ziyuan with some expectation.
"Okay, then you can take us to buy a camera first, we really need it. Zhuo Ziyuan agreed, Li Xinyuan immediately smiled happily, things like taking pictures and looking in the mirror are probably engraved in the genes of girls, especially beautiful girls.
It didn't take long, Zhuo Ziyuan was not picky, he spent 10,000 yuan to buy a Sony smart camera, and the whole process didn't take more than 20 minutes, he just picked a relatively high configuration, as for whether it looks good or not, he doesn't care, the photos taken are good-looking.
The Window of the World is not far away, after buying the camera, ten minutes later, they are already standing at the door of the Window of the World. Now the people in the scenic spot are not as exaggerated as in later generations, and most of the people have not yet entered the well-off, and they have not queued up much, so they have entered the scenic spot.
This theme park is really good, there are many famous buildings, such as the Eiffel Tower, Zhuo Ziyuan doesn't know how tall it is, but the park is not short, looking at the introduction, it is 108 meters high, and it is said that it is reduced according to the proportion of one-third. There is also the Arc de Triomphe, built according to 1:1, that is, a rebuilt Arc de Triomphe.
There are many other buildings, divided into Asia, America, Africa, Europe, Oceania and other regions, a total of more than 100 world-famous miracle buildings, what the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Taj Mahal, the pyramids, the White House, the Washington Monument, the Statue of Liberty, it can be said that there is everything.
What's more interesting is that some of the buildings are very exaggerated in proportion, such as the Buddha Pagoda in India, the original pagoda is believed to be accessible to people, and there are many floors, but the miniature version here is almost one and a half people high, and it is impossible to enter at all, it is simply a miniature tower, it looks like there is no sense of history at all, but it is a little funny.
Seeing so many buildings, Zhuo Ziyuan suddenly thought of Douyin, Moments or something that went viral in later generations, and so many tourist photos of people showing various foreign attractions, could it actually be just taken in such a window of the world, thinking about it, it is really possible.
The photographic technology of later generations makes it impossible to distinguish the authenticity of the background building, and there are many foreigners playing in the park now, so after more than ten years, there will be more foreigners, and there are many foreigners in the photo as the background, not to mention it.
Zhuo Ziyuan sincerely admires the wisdom of the Chinese people.
Speaking of photography technology, Zhuo Ziyuan is still very confident in his photography skills, although he has not undergone professional photography training, nor has he participated in any photography competitions, but after his daughter was born, Zhuo Ziyuan was very interested in taking pictures of his daughter, and he couldn't wait to leave her a photo every day, and all kinds of posing, including Douyin, Zhuo Ziyuan has to imitate almost every classic pose posted in the circle of friends, so with his rich experience, the photography technology is also first-class, especially in terms of framing and angle, Zhuo Ziyuan feels that he should be a few levels ahead of the current people.
Along the way, Zhuo Ziyuan became Li Xinyuan's exclusive photographer, almost all buildings have to leave a single photo of Li Xinyuan, some buildings that Zhuo Ziyuan is interested in, so he asked Liu Qin to help give them a group photo, and after seeing the photos taken by Liu Qin, Zhuo Ziyuan is more confident in his photography skills, and there is no way to compare.
When Zhuo Ziyuan shoots, he will find some shadow effects, backlight effects, or ask Li Xinyuan to get close to himself or close to the background, in order to reflect the characteristics of the human theme.
And Liu Qin took pictures, almost as long as the people and scenery were in the frame, and then called the eggplant, click, and took a picture, the difference can be imagined.
In this regard, Zhuo Ziyuan can only sigh at the innocence of girls now, not as exaggerated as later generations, you must know that more than ten years later, girls take a photo, it may really take more than ten minutes, posing in various poses, angles, light and shadow effects, not thin, whitening or not, and finally a simple P, will be uploaded and shared.
On this window of the world, they walked around for an afternoon, and when they finally came out, there was still a part of the scenic spot that they had not finished seeing, and taking pictures took up a large part of the time.
Dinner was not eaten at the hotel, nor was it eaten during the visit, Liu Qin took them to eat snacks at the famous local night market in Shenzhen, which can also be said to be a food stall.
Such a night market, Zhuo Ziyuan also went to it in his previous life, it was a long business trip to Taiwan, went to the night market in several places, how long does it take to start setting up stalls at six o'clock, the peak period is between eight and twelve o'clock, and the night market lasts for a long time, basically until two or three o'clock in the morning of the next day.
The night market in Shenzhen is similar, there are many kinds of food, and Li Xinyuan is dazzled by it.
Following Liu Qin's suggestion, Zhuo Ziyuan and the others tried a lot of snacks that Dragon City didn't have.
Chaoshan beef balls, they ate them, the taste is very good, the beef is smooth and chewy, take a bite, the soup in the beef will shoot out, Zhuo Ziyuan remembered that this thing seems to be called peeing cow balls, which means that the soup will rush out like peeing when you bite into it.
And the first porridge, in fact, is made of pork balls, pork liver, pig intestines and other pig things and white rice, just listen to the name, you know, there must be a story related to the top score.
Cheong fun is a delicacy made by rice noodles wrapped in vegetables and meat and steamed together, but the rice noodles in it are more translucent, softer and glutinous, and poured with some soy sauce, hot sauce or something, Zhuo Ziyuan doesn't like to eat it very much.
Che Tsai noodles, Zhuo Ziyuan had heard such noodles in his previous life, looking at the practice of the stall owner, Zhuo Ziyuan was speechless, isn't this NM just dry mixed noodles, but it has been judged to be accompanied by two fish balls and beef balls, so how important it is to give a good name, the same is dry mixed noodles, there are all over the world, and with a good name, he has become a special snack in Shenzhen.
There is also a kind of pastry called mugwort, Zhuo Ziyuan thought it was a strange thing at first, because that word was too special, Zhuo Ziyuan didn't know it at all, Liu Qin introduced it, and only then did he know that this word was the same pronunciation as the board of "bench", and he bought it once, which made Zhuo Ziyuan speechless, isn't this the Qingtuan eaten in Longcheng, which is a dumpling made of rice noodles and wormwood juice.
There are also dry fried beef rivers, manhole consumption, of course, some barbecue meat skewers and the like, in short, a night market, Zhuo Ziyuan and Li Xinyuan are satisfied.
After eating, Zhuo Ziyuan and the others went back to the hotel to rest, after all, in order to catch the plane yesterday, they didn't sleep until the early hours of the morning, and they got up early in the morning, and they had to make up for sleep when they went back to the hotel.
The next day, Zhuo Ziyuan's biological alarm clock worked, he woke up at six o'clock in the morning, and the plane at half past ten o'clock was very timely, Zhuo Ziyuan did not wake up Li Xinyuan, he ran on the street outside the hotel for more than 20 minutes, and returned to the hotel sweating, and after taking a shower, he felt a lot more refreshed.
At half past 7, I called Li Xinyuan to finish breakfast together, and Brother Xiao Ma actually called him, saying that he was going to send Zhuo Ziyuan in person, Zhuo Ziyuan was a little puzzled, no, just pick up the airport, and now I will come to see off the plane in person, I won't have any ideas.
Brother Xiao Ma did have his appeal when he came to send Zhuo Ziyuan in person, but what Zhuo Ziyuan didn't expect was that Brother Xiao Ma actually came to send money.
Sending money is not accurate enough, it should be said that it is to send shares.
After getting in the car, Brother Xiao Ma first greeted Zhuo Ziyuan about not being able to accompany him yesterday, and greeted Zhuo Ziyuan how he played yesterday.
Seeing that he was about to arrive at the airport, Brother Xiao Ma finally got to the point, "Mr. Zhuo, we have an investor who intends to sell a part of the equity, I don't know if you are still interested." ”
To be honest, Brother Xiao Ma is really not too embarrassed to speak, Zhuo Ziyuan's large amount of money has been regarded as a solution to their urgent need, and most of the newspapers this morning have reported positively, which has greatly reversed the public opinion environment of penguins. But at this juncture, another investment institution actually wanted to sell the equity in his hand, which made Xiao Ma very embarrassed, as if everyone disliked their company's stocks, which is also the reason why Xiao Ma didn't go straight to the topic as soon as he came up.
Of course I am interested, how many or how much I want, Zhuo Ziyuan shouted in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be puzzled and said, "Oh, what is the situation, Mr. Ma, you might as well introduce the current shareholding structure of Penguin, I think I, as a major shareholder with 20% of the equity, have the right to understand clearly." ”
Brother Xiao Ma briefly introduced, it is indeed very simple, as Zhuo Ziyuan and they knew before, there are two capitals that hold Penguin shares, one has been transferred to Youdao Capital, and the other has 20% of the equity, and the remaining 60% is in the hands of the management.
This other capital is not completely optimistic about the Internet market, but in the current bad external environment, they still chose to sell part of the equity, in order to avoid risks, they did not directly contact Youdao, but through Xiao Ma Ge, expressed willingness to transfer 5% of the equity, the price is the same as Yingdong, that is, two million transferred to Youdao 5% of the penguin equity, so that their previous investment costs have not only recovered, but also have generated 80% of the income, no matter what, no matter how will they lose.
Zhuo Ziyuan is 10,000 willing to take over, and now Youdao Capital still has five million US dollars, which can be eaten, "Mr. Ma, you don't have to feel embarrassed, they are willing to sell, then I will take over, I said, I appreciate the team led by Mr. Ma very much, I believe you will bring me a return, if they want to continue to sell the equity in their hands in the future, and your management team wants to cash out, you can tell me directly." The direct price is reasonable, I wouldn't say no. ”
Zhuo Ziyuan knew very well that Brother Xiaoma's team did not have 60% equity at all in the future, otherwise Brother Xiaoma would be the richest man, what caused the change in the equity of the management team, Zhuo Ziyuan was not clear, but he decided not to let go of any opportunity, if they wanted to cash out, just say it now, just give each other a choice, if they are willing to transfer 5% to Zhuo Ziyuan, Zhuo Ziyuan will be very happy.
Two million is not a small amount for the management of penguins, there are only a few executives who have equity in penguins, and several people are distributed proportionally, the least is 200,000 US dollars, and it is a millionaire in China, and in this era, a million is indeed a millionaire.
"Thank you so much to Mr. Zhuo, Mr. Zhuo's trust in us is our greatest support, and we will definitely make Mr. Zhuo's investment worthwhile. Brother Xiao Ma heard Zhuo Ziyuan so refreshing, and immediately smiled, he was really afraid that Zhuo Ziyuan would take 20% of the equity and stop, and then IBG would stage the same play as Yingdong, selling equity everywhere, then this press conference would be in vain, or even worse, because by then, there will be no more way to take over.
