As soon as the offer of 51% of 30 million holdings was proposed, it was unanimously approved by the team, and for the founding team of the starting point, this offer is no different from pie in the sky.

At the moment when the capital market is not yet mature, and the business model has not been fully recognized by the market, the starting point team has been looking for money in the capital market for a long time, but in vain, but now, the money is not only sent to the door, but also far more than they want.

As a result, before the person in charge of the starting point had time to return to Shanghai, he immediately signed a contract with Makino Technology on behalf of the entire team.

The team before the investment is exempted, the pre-investment financial audit is also exempted, and it will be done after the investment is completed, Li Mu's simply is beyond imagination, he made an offer yesterday, signed it today, paid on the day of signing and immediately began to prepare to launch a reading channel on YY Online.

The reason why it is so casual is that on the one hand, Li Mu is very confident in the ability of this team, and on the other hand, he really doesn't have much money, just tens of millions.

However, giving money at will, does not mean that Li Mu has not thought it through, at the current stage, it is meaningless to expect the network to make money, the net profit margin of this industry is low, it is beyond imagination, just pick up the current business model, subscribe to the author 5:5 share, that is, the gross profit margin is 50% of the revenue, but, in this 50%, to bear all the company's operating costs, personnel salary, office space, office supplies, financial loss, In the end, there may not be a few percentage points left in the corporate tax revenue, and the total amount itself is small, so there is little hope for profit margin.

However, Li Mu values the future of this industry. Strong user viscosity and broad space for derivative development, excellent content can produce a natural centripetal force for users, bringing huge advantages to the promotion of the platform, and excellent content can greatly enhance the user's loyalty to the platform, at present, although these excellent online literature is only digital text, but in the near future, they can be transformed into a powerful high-quality IP, which can be delivered to film and television, animation, games and other derivative directions, becoming a hit in the field.

In the future, YY.com wants to enhance user viscosity, relying on short and fragmented information. Blogs are difficult to maintain, but the quality is not the same, the quality of the serial can produce a strong viscosity to users, so that users log in to the platform every day to read, this advantage is very strong, in the near future, YY online reading channel opened, only need one or the secondary domain name, you can put all the content in, for all YY users to read, which can not only improve the content volume of YY network, but also enhance the viscosity of YY users, but also promote the rapid development of the entire Internet literature.

Moreover, in the future, the demand for high-quality IP will continue to increase, and winning this high-quality copyright ammunition depot in advance is a great supplement to Makino Image, and at the same time, Wanying Real Estate also has a film and television base project that is about to start, and these high-quality IPs can also be quickly digested through the super platform of the film and television industry, forming a whole industrial chain.

……

Just when Li Mu pocketed it at the speed of light, and when the world media continued to report on his two big plans, Li Mu, who was in the center of public opinion, got the news that Lin Qingya came from the United States.

Li Mu asked Li Ziwei to convey her own demands last time, asking her to investigate Microsoft's two recent key trends in her own direction, and she has received a reply.

First of all, there is the question of the departure and retention of employees of Microsoft's former MSN project team.

Lin Qingya conducted a very rigorous investigation of Microsoft through routine investigations and hiring high-end private detectives, and after many days of investigation and analysis by private detectives, the following conclusions were drawn.

First, when MSN announced the cessation of maintenance, all MSN personnel were not fired, but were transferred internally within Microsoft.

This is somewhat abnormal, according to Microsoft's previous routine, a business unit is abolished, so many employees are idle but not laid off, almost never happens, and so many employees are transferred internally, which brings a lot of pressure to various other departments, and it must have taken a lot of effort to digest and absorb such a large team.

To take the simplest example, KPI assessment indicators alone will have a great negative impact, A team of 150 people, shouldering a labor cost of 100 million US dollars, The billion-dollar performance KPI was originally no problem to be completed, but suddenly it was required to accept at least 30 employees diverted from other departments, and they were all high-paid, increasing the labor cost of at least $20 million a year, which had a very great impact on the department, and the addition of 30 new employees, especially those who were originally responsible for other fields, would increase the digestive pressure of the department, and would slow down the pace of the entire team.

Microsoft is willing to pay such a price and keep these people, which proves that Microsoft's social heart has not died.

Second, some old employees in the MSN system chose to resign because they couldn't adapt to their new positions, but this group of people did return to Microsoft recently as Li Mu guessed, which further proves Li Mu's guess that if Microsoft is not going to replay the social card, it is impossible to re-call these employees who have left the company;

Thirdly, and most directly, the private investigators have closely monitored and investigated the employees of these old MSN divisions, and found that their working hours have increased significantly recently.

Among the many private investigations of Microsoft employees, the most representative is an engineer named Anglo, who has been working at 8:30 in the morning and leaving work at 10 p.m. every day since the private investigators began to investigate him, which coincides with a weekend, and he also works overtime at the company on Saturday, and also works from morning to night.

To prove that the man's work trajectory has changed, a private investigator investigates his credit card spending records.

Americans rarely carry cash when they go out, credit cards and cash checks are the main means of payment, the most commonly used of which is credit cards, a person's credit card consumption records, enough to draw a portrait of his whole behavior.

Just a month ago, for several months, Anglo's credit card consumption records showed that he rarely worked overtime, for example, after 6 p.m. on weekdays, he spent credit cards almost every day, and the consumption scene was gas stations, cafes, supermarkets, bars, cinemas and other entertainment and leisure places, which proves that a month ago, this person basically did not work overtime.

Moreover, if you count his spending every weekend in the previous months, you will find that he often flies from Seattle to San Francisco on Friday night, and then flies back to Seattle from San Francisco on Sunday night, and the private investigator continues to investigate, and finds that Anglo's wife and children are settled in San Francisco, so he will return to San Francisco every weekend to spend time with his wife and children.

But since more than a month ago, Anglo hasn't flown to San Francisco again, and why? Because he's working overtime at Microsoft's headquarters every Saturday.

Interestingly, the private investigators also made a very unexpected discovery, in order to obtain all the clue chains, they reversely checked Anglo's wife to see if she would go to Seattle to accompany Andrew every week, and it turned out that in the past month or so, Anglo's wife has only been to Seattle once, and her credit card has opened a room in a local high-end hotel in San Francisco five times, each time it is a premium room for hundreds of dollars a night, and every time she goes there to have a tryst with her, it turns out to be her fitness instructor.

All in all, the chain of evidence at the personnel level has been very obvious, according to Li Mu's logic of nuclear weapons, they are all Microsoft's uranium reserves, and now, they have all been mined by Microsoft, which proves that Microsoft is indeed going to make a fuss about nuclear weapons;

Secondly, it is a recent survey of Microsoft's data processing center, computer room, and bandwidth, and the results have also made very clear findings.

An offshore company actually controlled by Microsoft has invested $200 million in Chicago to build three large data processing centers, and three data processing centers in Texas are under construction, and at the same time, the company has also signed agreements with a number of companies that provide data processing services, locking in a large number of computer rooms and bandwidth redundancy.

Microsoft is different from Makino Technology, and Makino Technology's core product is to link users all over the world together. Through video and through music and hobbies, in this case, Makino Technology has a great demand for data processing capabilities, in contrast, after Microsoft stopped MSN, most of its products are tool software, and the users of these software do not need to be interconnected, they only need to connect with the headquarters to ensure updates and daily information interaction, so their demand for data processing capabilities is several grades worse than that of Makino Technology.

Makino Technology is like a super factory with the world's largest output of electrolytic aluminum, which consumes so much electricity that it has to invest in building multiple power plants around the world to reduce costs and ensure power supply, but Microsoft is like a beef production base with the world's largest output, and the demand for electricity is far less terrifying than that of electrolytic aluminum, but it is such a company that focuses on cattle raising has built a number of power plants, which must have ulterior secrets.

This is the second basis for Li Mu to judge Microsoft's actions, it has been determined that Microsoft is mining uranium mines, and it has been determined that Microsoft has invested a huge amount of electricity, even if you haven't seen thousands of centrifuges hidden in the shadows, you can be sure that what Microsoft wants to do is nuclear weapons!

After his judgment was confirmed, Li Mu immediately found Chen Tong, and the first thing he said when he met him was to ask: "How is the development of the titter?!"
