Who filmed the first "Song Weiyang Charity Dinner", the media and netizens are all talking, and new speculation objects always emerge every year. It wasn't until more than ten years later that a mysterious turtle rich second generation suddenly spent a lot of money to form an e-sports team, and the truth of the past that had been sealed for many years was finally revealed.
The rich second generation named Li Shenglong, in order to build momentum for his e-sports team, took the initiative to be interviewed by the media and told the reporter the details of the year.
According to Lee, around February 2005, his father took him home for the Spring Festival and immediately left for Hong Kong City. At that time, Tencent's share price had risen to 4.3 Hong Kong dollars, and his father spent 50 million yuan to buy 10 million shares, directly becoming Tencent's 16th largest shareholder, with a shareholding ratio of 0.59%.
Between 2005 and 2007 alone, Tencent's share price increased 16 times. By the end of 2017, the market value of the 50 million yuan invested that year had reached 4 billion Hong Kong dollars.
Li Shenglong said to reporters very proudly: "My father is very grateful to Mr. Song Weiyang, and he also believes in Mr. Song's vision. Over the years, my father has continued to increase his investment in Tencent, and now holds nearly 12 million shares of Tencent stock, with a market value of about HK$4.8 billion. My father also tried to do other businesses, but basically lost money, and only invested in Tencent stocks and real estate, so that he has always been profitable. My father often told me that in this life, if you meet a noble person, you can change your fate, and if you do one thing right, you can make a fortune. I think the esports industry has a lot of potential, so I'm going to invest in esports, and I believe it's the right thing to do. Of course, I would also like to thank Mr. Song Weiyang again, his investment vision is so accurate. At the same time, I announced that I will bid for next year's Song Weiyang Charity Dinner, not to ask Mr. Song anything, but to say thank you on behalf of my father!"
When these words were spoken, keywords such as "Song Weiyang Charity Dinner" and "Song Weiyang, the God of Investment" directly appeared on the hot search list the next day.
Netizens were envious, jealous and hateful, and said that they didn't meet Song Weiyang earlier. If they had been instructed at the beginning, even if they were selling their houses, they would have to go to Hong Kong City to invest in Tencent stocks.
In the second year after this matter was exposed, Song Weiyang's charity dinner was auctioned for a sky-high price of 30 million yuan, which was auctioned away by a guy who made blockchain currency. No one knows what they talked about, but after dinner, the price of Bitcoin skyrocketed, and the related advertorials were overwhelmingly hyped.
Subsequently, Song Weiyang was interviewed by "China Business Newsweek" and made it clear: "Unless the blockchain currency is officially issued by the government, I will never touch it." ”
All blockchain currencies, including Bitcoin, plummeted in response. Dozens of domestic CEOs gloated, and at the same time celebrated with smiling faces on Weibo, copying and pasting Song Weiyang's sentence, and adding a parenthetical word to the end: "Unless the blockchain currency is officially issued by the government, I will never touch it." (Song Weiyang: Liars also want me to use them as guns, I am the grandfather of liars!)"
Well, it can be seen that by 2018, Song Weiyang's fraud has become a stalk. Everyone can take it out and ridicule it, and they are not afraid of offending Song Weiyang's happy public stalk.
But put the time back to 2004, Song Weiyang's charity dinner was only lively for half a month, after all, there are new things happening every day in China, and people's attention will always shift - Lenovo suddenly announced the acquisition of IBM's PC business, and suddenly became a lot of attention, or the world's attention!
The paper media sang praise, and Lenovo's status as a "national brand" and "national pride" was completely consolidated by this operation. Some government orders from Shenzhou Computer were snatched away by Lenovo in an instant, because the leaders made it clear that they wanted to buy Lenovo machines.
Many media outlets also took the initiative to contact Song Weiyang and asked him to comment on Lenovo's acquisition.
Song Weiyang was annoyed by the reporters and asked Shen Si to stop them all. It wasn't until he attended an official event that he was stopped by reporters and couldn't get out, so he said ambiguously: "Lenovo will be very difficult in the next three years, and if it can successfully integrate its business, it can soar to the sky and be proud of the global PC market." If it is not successfully integrated, it may become a long-term drag. I hope Lenovo can succeed, after all, this is our national brand and the pride of all Chinese. ”
"I heard that IBM has also contacted Shenzhou Technology, why didn't you choose to cooperate?" the reporter asked.
Song Weiyang said with a smile: "I think that my talent is limited, and I am not sure of integrating IBM's PC business, so I can only choose to give up." I admire Mr. Liu and Mr. Yang very much, or they are bold and far more courageous than me. ”
At this time, iResearch suddenly released the "China Search Engine Research Report".
According to the report, the market share of China's search engines is as follows: Sogou (45.8%), Baidu (21.4%), Yisou(16.3%), and others (15.5%).
This statistical result frightened Ding Ming, because Sogou's market share fell too fast. After a meeting to study and discuss, Sogou executives all thought that it was normal, although Sogou's market share had fallen a lot, but its business, traffic and profits were skyrocketing. It's just that the market size is growing faster and there are more competitors pouring in, which has diluted Sogou's market share.
One of the most eye-catching competitors is Yisup, whose full name should be "Yahoo Yisou".
Although Yahoo has invested in Baidu, it seems that it is reluctant to take this piece of cake, so it has to go on the game to stir up the situation in person. Just like Google in history, after participating in Baidu's financing, he was too busy to come to China to grab business - if it weren't for Song Weiyang's original investment in Google, Sogou bought out Google's Chinese website patent licensing, I am afraid that Google in this time and space will also come to China to develop.
Last year, Sogou acquired Hao123 and Baidu acquired 256, and both companies have grown rapidly. So Yahoo was also red-eyed, turned around and acquired 3721, and created a new brand "Yahoo Yisou" on the basis of Yahoo search.
Relying on the remnants of Yahoo's user base and 3721 navigation station traffic, Yahoo Yisou immediately became the third largest search engine in China.
It is worth mentioning the cardinal leader, this gentleman is too good at business. Although the reputation of 3721 is the most famous in the navigation station, the traffic has actually been surpassed by hao123 and 256, and the latter two websites have only sold tens of millions, and the cardinal leader was stunned to sell 3721 for 120 million, and the unit is still in dollars.
It's just that Yahoo is so tiger, and I actually bought it.
Of course, 3721 is not a pure navigation station, entering the Chinese name in the address bar is the first method that the red-clothed sect leader came up with. But in fact, this has little to do with search, but let the customer's website register a Chinese name at 3721, and netizens can automatically jump to the corresponding website by entering the Chinese name.
The cardinal leader called this "Internet real name" and declared that he wanted to let Chinese use Chinese to surf the Internet, creating a concept of "national style Internet". This is powerful, the media also has room for hype, but also to attract the attention of users, so 3271's reputation in the industry is very loud - this thing used to be very profitable, second only to search bidding ads, after all, you can let whites directly enter the "Chinese URL".
Unfortunately, this practice was destined to be useful only in the early days of the Internet, making it easier for Internet users to quickly find websites. When the search engine function becomes powerful, when the Internet novice gradually becomes an old bird, the "national style Internet" of 3721 is useless, and can only go to the dead end of the navigation website.
However, 3721 exercised the rogue tricks of the cardinal master, which was later used in the promotion of the 360 security guard, directly making the number "360" notorious. Jingdong's early website was,It was also pitted by the 360 of the cardinal leader.,Misunderstood by netizens to have a relationship with the rogue 360.,Busy changing the URL to.
In any case, China's search engine industry is a muddy water this year, and everyone sees that Sogou and Baidu have made money, so they are swarming to make search engines. In 2004, there were dozens or hundreds of Chinese search engine brands, and cats and dogs all came to join in the fun.
It is possible that a few teachers and students who understand technology can get money from big money or venture capitalists by hastily making a search engine. Then learn from the industry leader, find a navigation website to cooperate (there are also many navigation websites), and then deceive the company to invest money to sell search ads.
These messy search companies made a lot of money and lost even more, but in the end, they basically all died.
But there are so many competing peers, there are so many novices who are new to the Internet, it is certain that users will be diverted, and it is not unjust that Sogou Search has diluted its market share. When those cats and dogs are dead, the market share of big websites will also rise.
But the big website obviously couldn't wait, and in order to expand his market share, Li Yanhong personally led the team to a national lecture tour. Hundreds of millions of publicity funds have been smashed, and Baidu's promotion advertorials are everywhere, and Li Yanhong is building himself into a star in the IT industry to drive Baidu's development.
Ding Ming doesn't speak much in public, and he is not as handsome, so highly educated, and so deep in technology as Li Yanhong, he is destined to not be a star. As a counterattack, Ding Ming can only launch various promotional activities, and often sponsors on TV shows.
The two sides launched WAP search almost at the same time, and they can also search for network information using mobile phones, and each released the news of their upcoming listing in the United States.
It's time to go public, because Google's stock price has skyrocketed wildly, and it has exceeded $200, which means that Song Weiyang's net worth has also broken $20 billion! Search engine stocks have been made hot by Google, and it is a good time for Sogou and Baidu to go public, and they can take advantage of Google's Dongfeng circle to make a lot of money.
At this time, Song Weiyang also had to go to the United States for the purpose of signing a contract. Because he had an agreement with Larry that Google would have to sell 3% of Google's stock price above $200.
Google couldn't buy back so much, and found more than a dozen investment institutions to jointly eat the shares transferred by Song Weiyang.
In this transaction, Taurus Capital cashed out $1.68 billion at one time, making a lot of money.
Well, the shares transferred are all held by Taurus Capital, and Song Weiyang's personal holdings have not moved. Now Song Weiyang personally holds 3.34% of Google's shares, and Altair (Golden Bull Capital) holds 25.45% of Google's shares, and Golden Bull Capital is still Google's major shareholder.
By the way, when Song Weiyang bought NetEase, he also bought 10 million shares of Amazon.
Unfortunately, Amazon was so bad that it bottomed out in 2003 and suddenly plummeted again in 2004. Amazon's stock price at this time has only risen less than 6 times compared with when Song Weiyang bought the bottom, and it only brought him more than $200 million in book profits.
This is nonsense, Song Weiyang is very unconvinced!
After Taurus Capital cashed out $1.68 billion of Google shares, he personally spent $100 million and Altair (Taurus Capital) spent $200 million, all of which were used to buy Amazon in the secondary market. added up to 10 million shares, which immediately pulled up Amazon's stock price.
Just wait another three years, and the $300 million invested in Amazon this time will become $1 billion, and then more and more......
