0265 Pour cold water
On the way back to the estate, Femiler got off the bus after contacting the investment advisor, and he needed to go to Harvard-Norland, the top university in the nanny world.
Founded in 1892 as a school specializing in the training of maids, Harvard-Norland is now a world-renowned institution of higher learning for home economics, with a rigorous school ethos and excellent talents, and celebrities from all walks of life around the world are proud to hire nannies here.
Harvard-Norland graduates never have to worry about work, and the "Norland Vocational Qualification Certificate" issued by the school can be recognized all over the world, and graduating from this school is equivalent to getting a job that can be used for a lifetime.
Harvard-Norland graduates earn at least £40,000 a year, and even during their internships, they earn almost £2,000 a month.
The nanny who goes out from here is very high, and the knowledge reserve is also quite rich, and the college enrollment system is not an open system, with a strict selection mechanism, and at the same time provides servants for the royal family.
Working in the royal family may sound like a good thing, but in fact, domestic workers who graduated from Harvard-Norland are very reluctant to work in the royal family, because the salary is so low, ridiculously low, that the salary of a domestic servant is only 9,000-15,000 pounds a year.
Although working in the royal family would have the status of half a royal family, that kind of false name has no practical meaning, and even some servants who are too low pay have to apply for a subsistence allowance from the government...... If it weren't for the agreement between the school and the royal family, it is estimated that few people would be willing to go.
On the way back to the manor, Wu Qian received a call from Yao Xinlu, saying that there was something that needed to be held on a conference call, and it was about video websites.
Yao Xinlu is with Yuan Bingqing, although it is already 10 o'clock in the evening, but because there are important things, almost everyone in the company's video network department is working overtime.
"Wu Dong, you went to the UK these days, the company has acquired two video website companies that are on the verge of bankruptcy, which have been merged into the original video network department, and the expanded server unit is under construction, which will be completed in a few days. In terms of funding, it was not as much as expected, and only 180 million was spent in total. ”
"There are no website companies suitable for acquisition for the time being. ”
Yao Xinlu reported that Wu Qian originally authorized a quota of 1 billion soft girl coins for the acquisition of Internet companies, and 180 million was less than 20% of the funds.
The video website industry is a bit of a two-headed phenomenon, small companies are as small as shrimp, and large companies are like whales...... There is very little middle ground, either giants with a market capitalization of tens or even tens of billions, or small companies with tens of millions of dollars.
Stuck in the middle ground, there are really not many that are high or low, small companies may have encountered a certain bottleneck, if they break through the past, they will get a blowout development, and they can't break through, just like Yuan Bingqing's video website before, gradually declining, and the bottleneck is stuck in more than 90% of the websites.
To put it bluntly, the bottleneck is the lack of funds, website maintenance needs funds, promotion needs funds, equipment needs funds, content needs funds, even if it is a freelance media person to put out a film, it also needs to pay for it. After all, video websites are not like short video apps, but they still have a certain threshold.
(The video website mentioned here refers to the ...... that has formal film and television copyrights.) )
"The website has been integrated, and the 4th, 5th, and 6th floors of the company building have been renovated into a video website department, with the 4th floor used for offices, and the 5th and 6th floors used for the construction of server units. The mobile APP is still being optimized and upgraded, and I believe that the update will be completed in another 24-36 hours. ”
"The integration of personnel has been completed, the headquarters of the two network companies are not in Beijing, so many of the original employees did not come to Beijing to work, there is a shortage of manpower in the network department, and the personnel department has been in full swing to recruit, I believe it will be alleviated soon. ”
Personnel are the foundation of a company, and not every company can be like Warren Buffett's "Berkshire Hathaway" company, which has only twenty or thirty employees but can control hundreds of billions of dollars in assets......
After listening to Yao Xinlu's report, Wu Qian said, "Well, good." We must pay close attention to the development of this area, and the steps can be a little bigger! Don't worry about the problem of funds, and all the unused funds of the acquisition will be used for other purposes, such as copyright, promotion, and maintenance. ”
"How's the traffic to the website now, and what about the number of mobile app downloads and active users?"
This is Wu Qian's biggest concern, a total of three Internet companies on the verge of bankruptcy have been integrated, so it should be said that there should be some improvements, right?
In the general manager's office of the HappySource Building, Yao Xinlu and Yuan Bingqing sat opposite each other, and when they heard Wu Qian's words, Yao Xinlu motioned for Yuan Bingqing to say it himself.
"Before Wu, the video website has made a good improvement after the integration, from 3,000 daily visits at the beginning to 8,000 daily visits. In terms of mobile terminals, the number of active users cannot be counted for the time being, because it has not been updated yet. Yuan Bingqing said with a little excitement.
The website has 8000 daily visits, which is already an unprecedented good result for Yuan Bingqing, and the ranking at this moment ranks 16th among all video websites in the Heavenly Empire, a record high.
Yuan Bingqing only saw the results, but did not think that this was the effect achieved by merging three network companies.
Wu Qian listened to Yuan Bingqing's voice and listened cheerfully, and thought that it had increased a lot, but it turned out to be the difference between fifty steps and one hundred steps......
Wu Qian is very aware of the daily visits to the three giant video websites of the Celestial Empire, the first place "Penguin Video" has more than 20 million daily visits, the second place "Eyo Yo" is about 15 million, and Youke B ranks third, about 7 million.
These figures are not fixed and will fluctuate wildly, but they are still indicative.
In other words, Wu Qian's current video website is nearly 1,000 times short of the last place of the three giants......
This gap makes people feel hopeless, but it is not far from the tenth-place "Pants 7 Network", which has 30,000 daily visits.
8000This result is not very gratifying, but there is nothing wrong, because it simply integrates the traffic of the website, and does not add any new content, and a series of copyright films and television have not yet been launched.
During the merger of the website, although users have expectations, the experience must not be too good, so it should also have a certain impact.
"This kind of daily visits is far from enough, it is too far and too far, and it must be rushed forward. How many people can we support in our server group to access the video site at the same time? I'm talking about the highest level of fluency. Wu Qian asked.
Wu Qian's attitude was very resolute, a large basin of cold water was poured on Yuan Bingqing's head from 8,000 kilometers away, Yao Xinlu looked at Yuan Bingqing with a slight smile, which seemed to mean to say, look, I knew that Wu Qian must be this reaction.
