Chapter 807: A potential opponent that should not be underestimated
sent Ding Lei away, Wu Tao felt a lot more at ease.
Since no one is optimistic about the model of the intranet in the short term, it is even better.
At the very least, they can get a big enough head start for the intranet blog model, and when the website really grows, they will imitate and follow the trend to grab customers, and Tianjing will not have to worry.
However, having said that, the current intranet architecture of the school relies on the most advanced EB2.0 technology, and it is difficult for other domestic counterparts to imitate and follow suit.
In addition, Ding Lei came over today with good news.
NetEase is about to go public, which means that the earliest Internet venture capital case of Apocalypse Investment has finally come to harvest.
When I made a phone call, I dialed Xue Jiaqian and asked about the specific situation of the listing.
Xue Jiaqian's voice was also full of excitement, after all, NetEase's case was followed by her, and now it is listed and cashed out, which can be regarded as her performance: "Boss, NetEase's listing price is initially set at $15.5 per share, with a total market value of $465 million." Apocalypse Investments holds nearly half of the shares, worth $227 million. ”
“...... In NetEase, our investment yield is as high as 117!"
"Good job!" Wu Tao said approvingly, he should praise his subordinates, and he should still be rewarded: "When the time comes, you will be rewarded for meritorious deeds, just tell me what you want." ”
Xue Jiaqian was full of joy when she heard it, no matter how valuable this sentence could be in the end, but at least this tone made people feel very comfortable.
And she had already been rewarded with a sports car before, and she knew that Wu Tao had always been stingy with her shots.
"Boss, it's too early to talk about this. Xue Jiaqian avoided this topic for the time being, and asked instead: "By the way, boss, has Mr. Ding looked for you?
"You mean going on stage to ring the bell?" Wu Tao confirmed: "When the time comes, you can come to the stage on behalf of Apocalypse Investment, and I will attend the scene at most." ”
"But, such a great opportunity......"
Without waiting for Xue Jiaqian to finish speaking, Wu Tao interrupted: "I have already decided on this matter." In addition, after NetEase went public, did the two parties agree on any specific monetization rules?
As soon as Xue Jiaqian heard this, she understood Wu Tao's intentions, "Boss, do you want to cash out as soon as possible?"
"That's right, keep 20% of the shares, and the rest will be liquidated. Wu Tao gave instructions straightforwardly.
"But boss, haven't you always been optimistic about the development trend of NetEase?" Xue Jiaqian was a little puzzled.
"I am still very optimistic about the long-term development, but in the short term, no one can avoid the impact of the Internet bubble in the US Internet market. ”
Xue Jiaqian knew what she meant when she heard the string song, and immediately responded: "Boss, I understand." After NetEase goes public, I will cash out as quickly as possible and lock in profits without arousing Mr. Ding's disgust. ”
hung up Xue Jiaqian's phone, Wu Tao was in a very good mood.
At this moment, Qiu Wuyan, who had always felt guilty, knocked on the door and came in with an aggrieved face, crying and mourning: "Boss, I really have no experience in Lotus MP3 advertising, I thought 100,000 yuan was a lot, so I couldn't wait to agree, and I didn't have time to ask you for advice......"
"Okay, okay!" Wu Tao interrupted her: "You lack experience, and it is inevitable that you will fall for others." What kind of person is Mr. Xiao of Yuanqi Technology, Lotus mobile phones have now been sold to the international market, and the rise is obvious. Nowadays, the Lotus MP3 player is a novelty, but it also sells well. You can't play with her, I don't blame you. ”
After speaking, Wu Tao waved his hand and said, "Go, go, go." ”
Seeing Qiu Wuyan leave unconvinced, Wu Tao smiled silently.
If you are not convinced, you will be right! There is no harm if there is no comparison, so work hard.
But Xiao Zixia has been with him for a long time after all, and she is very proper in all aspects. In order to advertise on the school's website, before lunch, I called Wu Tao here.
Wu Tao picked up the phone and got straight to the point: "Zixia, even if you don't call today, I'm about to call you." Look at the newcomer under your hands who bullied you, and almost lost your self-confidence!"
"Won't you, boss?" Xiao Zixia said in a very relaxed tone: "I listen to that little girl is quite capable." Besides, a contract of 100,000 yuan is a lot for a new website that has been established for three months, not to mention that we also sponsored 10 MP3 players as prizes for the event!"
The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat.
Wu Tao's words could only be pointed, so he quickly changed the topic and said, "By the way, how is the sales of Lotus MP3 players now?"
"It's okay!" Xiao Zixia's tone was a little flat, "It has been on the market for more than a month, and the domestic market has shipped 50,000 units." ”
Wu Tao listened: "New things, the domestic market is not mature enough, there must always be a time to adapt." ”
The implication is that so little is normal.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Zixia's tone changed at the next moment: "Yes, but maybe it's luck, the east is not bright and the west is bright." This time, MP3 players have performed well in the markets of Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, with shipments reaching 500,000 units. ”
“5...... 500,000 units?"
This time, Wu Tao really flashed, according to the current price of Lotus MP3 at $200, it is almost $100 million in sales!
Wu Tao came back to his senses, and then realized Xiao Zixia's pretending to suppress and then raise the routine, and said with a smile: "Zixia, you are inflated! Not to mention the international market, the domestic market alone also has nearly 100 million sales, why did the advertising of Tianjing Company alone kill 100,000 yuan?"
When Xiao Zixia heard this, she immediately began to complain, "Boss, in addition to the advertisements placed on the online platform, Lotus MP3 also has a share of the paper media, radio and television media, and the total cost of marketing is there, and there is not much to the network." ”
After some explanation, Xiao Zixia took a step back, "Otherwise, boss, I will give Tianjing Company more advertising investment?"
"That's it," Wu Tao denied, "I just said it casually." ”
"That's really thanks to the boss for understanding. Xiao Zixia is mellow and proper no matter what she says, "To be honest, now Samsung has also begun to launch MP3 players, and the competitive pressure of Lotus MP3 players in the next stage is really not small, I am afraid that I will have to place advertisements in Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asian markets, please endorse." ”
As soon as Xiao Zixia said this, she quickly won Wu Tao's thoughts.
Wu Tao snorted and sneered, and immediately ordered: "It's okay, just spend what you should spend." There is no reason for us, the pioneers, to lose to a follower!"
Hanging up Xiao Zixia's phone, Wu Tao couldn't help but think about the big enemy of Samsung Group.
At least in the previous life, Samsung Group's technical background and product competitiveness were almost on a par with Apple.
Now that he is being followed by such an opponent, can Yuanqi Technology be under much pressure?
Specific to the Lotus MP3 matter, Samsung Group's technical advantages in semiconductors are beyond the reach of Yuanqi Technology at present.
It seems that the application of localized chips is imminent.
