However, Li Zhe can't say this to Chen Yizhou, at this time, WeChat still has only one of the simplest instant messaging functions, and no one will believe that it will become a leader in social software.

"Mr. Chen, external pressure is actually secondary, and its own strength is the main thing, I think Renren should be ready for transformation. Li Zhe thought about it and reminded.

When it comes to this, Chen Yizhou will forget if he listens to it, but if he doesn't listen, there is nothing to say, in less than two years, Renren doesn't have to listen to other people's opinions, and takes the initiative to start transformation.

However, the opportunity is fleeting, and there is not much direction for Renren's transformation by then, so you can only rush to the doctor and attack from all sides.

In the previous life, due to the rapid decline, Renren.com tried many transformations, such as Renren installment, which is called Internet finance to put it nicely, but it is actually a campus loan.

Later, I also did live broadcasts one after another, sold second-hand cars, and engaged in blockchain, but unfortunately I didn't do anything.

Chen Yizhou was silent for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "Mr. Li, I can see that you are a talented person, so I plan to invest in your company, I don't know if there is such an opportunity?"

is worthy of being an investor, Li Zhe is full of emotion, he can't make products, can't operate, it doesn't matter, just be able to invest.

However, Li Zhe did not plan to let the other party invest, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, Peanut Technology now has a daily turnover of more than one million, and the annual revenue is at least four or five hundred million, I don't know how much Mr. Chen wants to invest?"

This is pure bragging, but it is not a lie, because it is the peak season, and the daily turnover has indeed exceeded one million, but it cannot be maintained for a long time, and the annual turnover is naturally impossible to have four or five hundred million.

Hearing Li Zhe's words, Chen Yizhou was taken aback, he thought that Li Zhe's company's annual turnover was only tens of millions at most, so he planned to invest money to occupy some shares, but the other party's annual turnover was four or five billion, which is still a fart, where can there be so many idle funds, unless it is listed.

However, even if it is listed, Chen Yizhou has no confidence to convince investors, after all, Li Zhe is just a web game company, and those shareholders of Renren Company will not pay attention to it at all.

Fortunately, Li Zhe gave a step in time: "Mr. Chen, I also have a film and television company, and I am currently preparing an online drama, if Mr. Chen is interested, you can come in and play." ”

"Film and television companies?" Chen Yizhou was stunned, and then asked, "What is Mr. Li's valuation?"

Li Zhe smiled: "You invest fifteen million, and I will give you 15% of the shares." ”

Chen Yizhou couldn't help but smile and said: "It seems that Mr. Li is very confident, and he dares to value 100 million without any works." ”

At this time, Chen Yizhou has improved Li Zhe's status in his mind a lot, if it was said that he had an attitude of love and enthusiasm before, now it is an equal and friendly exchange.

After all, the other party is also the boss of a company with an annual revenue of hundreds of millions, and if he wanted to be someone else and talk to him like this, he would have hung up the phone directly.

Li Zhe smiled and said: "The new drama is about to be launched, if Mr. Chen is not at ease, he can wait until it is launched to see the situation, but there will definitely be many people who want to invest at that time." ”

The investment amount of 15 million, Li Zhezhen did not make a random offer, mainly because he took a fancy to the traffic of Renren and wanted to borrow the Renren platform to promote, otherwise he would not give Chen Yizhou this opportunity at all.

Now it has not yet reached the era when traffic is king, there are relatively few ways to monetize traffic, at most it is just advertising and the like, or in a few years, major capitals will desperately pursue traffic, even giants like BAT are not exempt.

Chen Yizhou thought for a while and said, "Mr. Li, can I take a look at the sample of this online drama?"

Li Zhe smiled: "Yes, tomorrow I will have someone send you a sample of the first episode." ”

After a few words of greeting, Li Zhe ended the call with Chen Yizhou.

............

In the afternoon of the second day, the conference room of Renren headquarters.

In front of several close-knit executives in the conference room, Chen Yizhou connected his laptop to a multimedia device, and a video appeared on the screen.

"My name is Wang Dazhui and I am an actor who is filming a low-budget martial arts drama. ”

"It's too low-cost, isn't it, what kind of children's toy sword is it?"

"I have no regrets in my life, and I think of the running in the sunset that afternoon, which was my lost youth. ”

The video, which was less than five minutes long, was played in no time.

Chen Yizhou glanced around at a few people and said, "What do you think of this drama?"

A middle-aged man couldn't help but laugh and said, "Mr. Chen, are you going to do this kind of online drama?" With all due respect, this kind of connotative, vulgar and boring drama shouldn't be watched by anyone, right?"

"That's right, Mr. Chen, if you want to make film and television, you should also make some films with deep thoughts, so that such works will be popular. ”

Chen Yizhou waved his hand and said to the assistant next to him: "Go and call a few young people over." ”

The assistant understood and walked out of the conference room quickly, and it didn't take long for him to walk into the conference room with seven or eight young employees of the company, who were basically under the age of 30, and even half of them were interns.

The managers looked at each other, not knowing which one Chen Yizhou was playing.

When the intern found a place to sit down, Chen Yizhou said: "Now I will show you a short video, and then I need you to give the most authentic evaluation in your heart." ”

After speaking, Chen Yizhou played the video again.

Less than half a minute after the video was played, some young employees couldn't help but cover their mouths and smile, their faces flushed, and they looked very painful.

Chen Yizhou smiled: "If you want to laugh, you can laugh, it won't stop you." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a low laugh in the conference room, although the boss spoke, but they were still relatively restrained, after all, there are so many company leaders here.

After the video was played, Chen Yizhou smiled and said: "Now, please talk about your views on this short film." ”

The first young employee to be named stood up and said, "I think it's pretty good, it's very funny." ”

One of the interns in the back was a little nervous and said, "I also think it's very good-looking, although it's short, but the laughter is very dense." ”

The young employees in the back expressed their opinions one by one, and without exception, they all praised the short film.

When these young employees left, most of the company's managers had some more or less embarrassment on their faces, but there were still a few people who scoffed.

For example, the middle-aged management who took the lead in speaking before frowned and said: "Today's young people are becoming less and less appreciative." ”

Chen Yizhou sighed in his heart, after Li Zhe's prompt, he gradually discovered the problem, Renren is for student users, but the managers of this company do not understand the preferences of young people at all, how can Renren do a good job?
