The directors' focus quickly shifted from Pindodo to Blue Hole Studios.

Zhang Yida began to paint them a blueprint for the future of Zhonghe Group.

"In China, we can use the promotion resources of Doushi, Kuaishou, Rocket Video, and Station B to engage in live game broadcasts, and let users shoot short videos to promote games.

Abroad, we also have this big killer covering hundreds of millions of young people.

The PC side has achieved such brilliant results, and the mobile side ...... It was a gold mine.

We use a free model to monetize through the charging of props......

Properly operated, add at least $2 billion in revenue a year. ”

Bao Zheyu quickly calculated that with a revenue of $2 billion a year, this game business segment can also reach a valuation of $10 billion at a price-to-sales ratio of 5 times.

It can almost offset the loss caused by the damage to the pindodole business.

Besides, Fight Dodo is not dead yet. Even if there is no traffic tilt of penguins, live e-commerce should be able to make up for it.

He began to convince himself that he had a bottomless e-commerce business on the one hand, and a cash cow business on the other.

For the sake of money, let alone flipping with penguins. Even if you turn your face with God, you are not afraid.

"And what is the valuation of Blue Hole Game Studios?"

Bao Zheyu was the first to ask everyone's thoughts.

"$5 billion!" Mr. Zhang replied.

The directors nodded, and the price was reasonable. A company that has made a name for itself with a game lacks the foundation, and who knows if you can sustain this momentum in the future?

Give too high a valuation, and they will definitely not do it. What's more, this company is still Zhang Yida's sole proprietorship, who knows if there is anything boring?

"Zhonghe Group first acquired Kuaishou, and then set up various investment companies, so there is not so much cash in the account, right?" asked Zhang Liping of Blackstone.

Zhang Yida nodded and said, "So I plan to adopt a full equity merger."

With the continuous cash flow of the two sectors of games and advertising, the development of e-commerce and entertainment will also be strongly supported. ”

A group of directors chatted with Zhang Yida enthusiastically, and Liu Zhiping watched all this coldly from the sidelines.

In his opinion, Zhang Yida is determined to make a game, is this the rhythm of not sharing the sky with penguins?

No, you have to inform Pony as soon as possible, so that he can give up all illusions and fully suppress the Zhonghe group.

In addition, the stocks in his hand cannot be kept, and all of them are exchanged for cash, which is just used to fight Zhonghe Group.

The board of directors was over, and Zhang Yida appeased all shareholders except Penguin, and reached a resolution to acquire Blue Hole Studio.

Zhonghe Group has dispatched a due diligence team to South Korea to complete the deal in the shortest possible time.

At the same time, Zhonghe Group has listed two more subsidiaries, one is called Zhonghe Games and the other is called Zhonghe E-sports.

In addition, Pindodo received a special fund of 500 million US dollars from the group headquarters.

This fund is not used for other purposes, but is specifically used to guide users from.

Pindoduo pulls data from the background, specifically for users who shop on WeChat mini programs and official accounts, and each person is issued with several vouchers, which are limited to use in the app.

In addition, it is also organizing personnel to develop "spelling passwords", preparing to learn Taobao's Taobao passwords and circumvent WeChat's traffic blocking.

The traffic entrance of the 12-square grid is still reserved for Pinduoduo at present.

Because the signed agreement has not expired, Penguin does not dare to violate the agreement to take it off the shelves, after all, it has to pay sky-high liquidated damages.

However, the blocking of WeChat groups, WeChat public accounts, and mini programs still made Pinduo uncomfortable.

At this point, Zhang Yida no longer retains illusions about penguins, and makes every effort to create a fighting independent APP traffic.

Fortunately, there are currently 300 million users of Pindodo, and although the banning of penguins hurts the muscles and bones, it will not kill Pindodo with a stick.

After the launch of Tiantian Toutiao, in addition to obtaining a number of short video software promotion and drainage, it also opened a set of gameplay in imitation of Pindodo, watching the news and inviting users to make money.

To be honest, this game is not suitable for a long time, and the fun headlines in the previous life have entered a dead end.

Once the user subsidy is stopped, a large number of users will be lost, and users will be directly raised into a wool party.

Zhang Yida is considering gradually replacing user rewards with Pindodo shopping coupons and guiding users to go shopping in Pindodo.

The newly developed movie ticket-buying software "Ticket Buyer" has also been launched on multiple platforms such as Pindodo, Touronghui, Doushi, and Kuaishou.

Ticket Buyer has cooperated with a number of offline theaters, including Wanda Cinemas, and the functions of Taopiao Ticket and Maoyan Movie are similar, mainly in terms of market share.

This requires the accumulation of time, as well as burning money, to slowly make up for the gap.

After Rocket Video obtained the copyright authorized by LETV, the shelves of each column of the long video were finally built.

Although they are all old movies, old TV series, and not exclusive, the software is at least not as miserable as before.

Rocket Video is currently free of charge. Shake TV and Kuaishou will also play some edited movie and TV series highlights to attract users to download rocket videos.

The number of rocket video users is rising, and the goal of 50 million daily active users is getting closer and closer.

But Zhang Yida knows very well that the current foundation of rocket video is still very shallow. If you want to catch up with Youaiteng, you need to increase investment in self-made content and copyright procurement.

Zhonghe Pictures, a leather bag company, also put up a shelf and recruited more than a dozen film and television investment-related practitioners.

invested two investments, one for the Wandering Earth, and one for Nezha's Demon Boy to descend into the world.

......

"Lao Xu, it is definitely wise for you to give up your worry-free future and choose to form an alliance with Bole.com. ”

Hearing Zhang Yida say this, Xu Dandan was somewhat embarrassed.

Because it was not an alliance at all, but a sale, he planned to sell the controlling stake in Lagou.com to Zhonghe Group.

Originally, he was going to negotiate with a worry-free future, but the angel investor Xu Xiaoming pulled him to the side of Zhonghe Group.

He and Zhang Yida have known each other a few years ago and are both members of the Young Entrepreneurs Association.

Watching his younger brother Zhang Yida's career grow day by day, first scolding Ahri, and now slapping a penguin, the industry is full of praise.

The world has been bitter for a long time!

Even magnesium clusters and didi have to look up to people's breath, let alone ordinary entrepreneurs!

Regardless of whether Zhang Yida wins this battle or not, it will not affect his status in the eyes of domestic entrepreneurs.

If it wins against Penguin, the position of the third largest Internet company in China will be secured.

He is thirteen years older than Zhang Yida, and he started his business a few years earlier, but now he has come to the point where the company sells himself, which can't help but make people sigh.

Xu Xiaoming introduced the offer of the future worry-free, $120 million to obtain 60% of the shares of Lagou.com.

In other words, Lagou.com is valued at $200 million.

Zhang Yida had seen Lagou.com's financial report before, and last year's revenue was nearly 200 million yuan, and the company's valuation of 200 million US dollars was not high.

The choice to acquire Lagou.com is also to take a fancy to the other party's position and influence in the field of Internet vertical segmentation recruitment.

Together with Lagou.com, as well as Xuemeng and Bole.com, the three companies can just form an ecological closed loop of campus socialization, workplace socialization, and Internet recruitment.

Zhang Yida actually wanted to wholly acquire Lagou.com, but Xu Dandan was unwilling.

When he negotiated with Future-Free, he was only willing to sell 60% of his shares.

"Yida, keeping 40% of the shares in the hands of the management is also conducive to mobilizing their enthusiasm. Xu Xiaoming persuaded him on the side.

Xu Xiaoming also said: "For Zhonghe Group, e-commerce, short video, and pan-cultural entertainment are the core sectors.

School Meng, Bole, and Lagou.com, the three of them are tied together for less than a billion dollars. ”

Xu Xiaoming is now floating, and a billion-dollar unicorn is no longer in his mouth.

However, what he said was very reasonable, Zhang Yida thought about it, and he really should grasp the big and let go of the small, so he agreed to Xu Dandan's request.

Invested 120 million US dollars in cash to Lagou.com, acquired 60% of the company's shares, and Lagou.com became a holding subsidiary of Zhonghe Group.

Counting Lagou.com and the Blue Hole that is about to be completed by the merger and acquisition, Zhonghe Group already has 15 subsidiaries, which can be called APP factories.

The other 13 are: Doushi, Kuaishou, Pindodo, Jimeng, Bole, Xiaomeng, Tiantian Toutiao, Rocket Video, Ticket Buyer, Zhonghe Games, Zhonghe E-sports, Zhonghe Pictures and other subsidiaries that have officially operated.

Zhonghe, Zhonghe Animation, and Zhonghe Music have been registered, but they have not yet officially opened.

In addition, Station B, Noon Sunshine, and Canxing Culture are three shareholding companies.
