Chapter 522: Coming Up with an Idea (Part II)
The two young people who came to the private room with Mo Xiaochen were both in their twenties.
The short man is thin and weak, wearing a down sweater and actually wearing a coat, wearing glasses and looking shy, he looks like a more introverted person.
The other one is in stark contrast to him, tall and handsome, with bright eyes and a shrewd taste, and his temperament shows confidence.
But whether it was a shy man with glasses or a confident tall man, when they saw Luo Kai and Mo Lan sitting in the private room holding hands, they all showed shocked looks.
Mo Lan hurriedly broke free of Luo Kai's hand and said angrily: "Don't knock on the door when you come back!"
Mo Xiaochen was thick-skinned and said with a smile: "Sister, brother-in-law, let me introduce you to you, this is my classmate Sun Zhixing..."
He first pointed to the man with glasses, and then introduced the tall man: "This is Shao Xingyu." β
"Lao Sun, Lao Shao..."
Mo Xiaochen smiled: "This is my sister Mo Lan, and this is my brother-in-law Luo Kai." β
He was pleased with the expressions on the faces of his two classmates, friends and business partners.
Shocked, surprised, worshipped!
Sun Zhixing and Shao Xingyu were really surprised, the two had known Mo Xiaochen for two or three years, although they knew that Mo Xiaochen's background was extraordinary, but they never thought that he was actually the younger brother of the big star Mo Lan.
As for Luo Kai...
Idol!
"Hello..."
The idol stretched out his hand to Shao Xingyu and smiled: "It's a pleasure to see you." β
Shao Xingyu, who has always been shrewd, also lost his IQ at this time, and shook hands with Luo Kai completely out of instinct: "Hello, I'm honored, I'm your fan, I didn't expect..."
He's a little incoherent.
Sun Zhixing's performance was even more unbearable, his face turned red, and he was stunned in the face of Luo Kai's outstretched hand, but he still woke up like a dream under Mo Xiaochen's reminder, and shook hands with Luo Kai at a loss to say hello.
Mo Lan nodded to the two with a smile and beckoned them to sit down and talk.
After sitting down and drinking half a glass of lemonade, Mo Xiaochen's two friends finally calmed down and accepted the fact that Mo Xiaochen's sister was Mo Lan and his brother-in-law was Luo Kai.
Luo Kai asked Mo Xiaochen to order, and then asked Shao Xingyu about their business.
Mo Lan's understanding is very limited, and he doesn't even know what Mo Xiaochen and they are doing, they only know that it is the Internet, but the scope of the Internet is too large, and Luo Kai must have a detailed understanding in order to provide targeted help.
He chose to ask Shao Xingyu instead of Mo Xiaochen or Sun Zhixing because he saw that in the other party's trio, Shao Xingyu should occupy a dominant position.
Sure enough, Shao Xingyu told Luo Kai about their entrepreneurial projects and the difficulties they faced in a very orderly manner.
The three of them are currently working on a video website, but unlike a large and comprehensive top platform like Feixun Video, they focus on two-dimensional content, such as animation, music, otaku culture, etc., focusing on the sharing and exchange of original content.
Limited by the scale of funds and personnel, the scale of this website called "ACG Space" is not large, with only 500,000 registered members, mainly students who like ACG culture.
The website has been established for a short time, and the traffic introduced is limited, so there is not much advertising revenue at present, and it is in a state of burning money with a net loss.
This is almost inevitable, where is the video website so easy to do, even if it is a niche category, it also has to invest a lot of server resources to support the framework of the site, and ensure that a steady stream of investment can gradually become bigger and stronger.
AC mother,Bilibili small TV...
Two icons flashed in Luo Kai's mind, and he asked with interest, "Then why did you choose to make a website with two-dimensional content?"
The trio looked at each other, but Shao Xingyu replied: "We feel that the popularity of ACG culture is getting higher and higher, and the website for ACG content is very promising and easy to attract..."
He didn't say the rest of the words, but how could Luo Kai not understand, and immediately smiled: "Attract venture capital, right?"
Shao Xingyu nodded embarrassedly.
In front of Luo Kai, he felt inexplicably nervous, not that Luo Kai was a star or anything, but that Luo Kai had a very special temperament, a pair of eyes seemed to be able to understand all the secrets of his body, so that he did not dare to play with his cleverness.
He also knew that his original idea was a bit naΓ―ve.
In the early stage of the development of the Internet, with the rapid expansion of the market scale, venture capital is easy to obtain, and a project that is a little creative or even imitates the trend, as long as it can attract traffic, there are often large sums of money willing to invest.
In this circle, there are too many legends of getting rich overnight.
However, the situation is different now, the era of attracting millions of dollars with a single idea is long gone, investors are becoming more and more savvy, all of them are not the masters of the rabbit and the eagle, and the eagle is likely to be a liar.
When the traffic of the "two-dimensional space" was at its highest, there were also a few small venture capitalists who paid attention, but soon there was no sound, but the expenses of the website were indispensable, and the funds mainly invested by Mo Xiaochen were quickly burned out.
Until now, the website has been operating in debt, and there is a possibility of bankruptcy at any time.
The three of them also had no choice but to seek foreign help.
Shao Xingyu and Mo Xiaochen looked at Luo Kai with blank eyes, and they wanted to hear the latter pat his chest and say, "This is easy, how much money do you need, I'll come out!"
However, where is Luo Kai so brainless, he thought about it seriously and asked, "Do you have an app for mobile phones?"
"Yes..."
Mo Xiaochen hurriedly took out his mobile phone, unlocked it and handed it to Luo Kai: "Brother-in-law, the first one is." β
Luo Kai took it and opened the app and spent four or five minutes browsing.
He found that Mo Xiaochen and others still put a lot of thought into it, not only do they have their own mobile client, but also the layout and content of the app are very good, not the kind of shoddy things that make money, especially in the original part.
But the fatal flaw is that there is too little content, and there are not many two-dimensional category animation boutiques.
This is easy to understand, they can't afford to buy the copyright at all, so they can only desperately tap the potential from the original content, but how can they attract popular up owners to settle in if they are not strong enough?
While watching and thinking, Luo Kai gradually had an idea.
He returned the phone to Mo Xiaochen, touched his chin and said, "I can give you an investment..."
Mo Xiaochen and Shao Xingyu were suddenly overjoyed, especially Mo Xiaochen, who almost shouted "Long live brother-in-law".
"But..."
The second one is sent.
