Chapter 718: Morningside Capital, Kuaishou

Tang Juexiao has been waiting for the Kuaishou APP for many years, and finally grew up and found the door.

Kuaishou was originally called "GIF Kuaishou", which is just a short video tool, and I believe many people have used it.

Throughout the past few decades of China's development, there have been "points", and when a certain point is reached, the situation will change. Tang Juexiao is observing the position of the "point", and then taking advantage of the trend.

The initial basic point was reform and opening up, which was the basis for later development.

The first important point in time in recent times was December 11, 2001, when China officially joined the TO, an organization known as the "Economic United Nations". At that time, it took seven or eight years for the Chinese government leaders to successfully apply for the contract, and the contracts were signed with the important member countries one by one, and the transportation was not convenient at that time, and it was very cumbersome.

The second point in time was 2004, when Tang Juexiao was reborn and house speculation began to appear. As soon as Vanke saw that the house price was rising too fast, it wanted to sell at a lower price, but the customer who bought first smashed the sales department, and Vanke did not reduce the price. Many real estate developers held meetings secretly to discuss price increases, and the secret meeting did not call Vanke Wang Zhi. Of course, in the end, Vanke also rose.

This year, Tang Juexiao fooled his parents to buy a house.

The third point in time is probably the big price reduction of smart phones, which means that it has already begun. The peak time was probably 2015, and the event was a big explosion of Xiaomi sales.

Kuaishou is a product made in 2011, the founder is known as "Tiantongyuan Zhang Xiaolong" Cheng Yixiao, I don't know how this nickname came from, self-proclaimed......

Other products usually have three or five people to make together at the beginning, otherwise they are at least a husband and wife duo, but Kuaishou only has Cheng Yixiao, which shows that it is ......

There is no essential difference between making a GIF and making a video, the video is done frame by frame, and the GIF is a picture overlay, and the essence is this. It is difficult to make GIFs on mobile phones, it takes up a lot of memory, etc., Cheng Yixiao is very good at doing this, and his Kuaishou is very easy to use.

Cheng Yixiao started working as a Kuaishou, he has always been a person, he is a very powerful programmer and product manager, but he doesn't talk well, so he can't do much at first, and he can't even attract investment.

Kuaishou initially got angel investment, but it was not enough, Cheng Yixiao then found all the important investors in the technology circle, just like Brother Xiao Ma wanted to sell QQ for hundreds of thousands at the beginning, no one looked at it, and the investors couldn't even say anything when they saw Cheng Yixiao, and no one dared to invest money after asking a circle this time.

As for Kuaishou's angel investment, it was invested by the famous "Morningside Capital" in China's science and technology circle, and Liu Qin should be the current leader.

The objects of Morningside Capital's investment, from the original Jiucheng, Ctrip, to the later Xiaomi, must have a total of hundreds, including almost half of the technology circle.

The investor is also a partner, and since the money has been invested, Morningside Capital will not watch Cheng Yi laugh on the street.

At the beginning of 2013, Zhang Fei of Morningside Capital found Cheng Yixiao and later Kuaishou CEO Su Hua. This is a person who can speak well, is very calm, has a more Buddhist personality, is good at information distribution, and his strength is not weaker than Zhang Yiming and Robin.

Cheng Yixiao made products, Su Hua did distribution, and the team brought by Su Hua did promotion, and Kuaishou slowly exploded.

The person who invested in Kuaishou in Morningside Capital is the famous investor Zhang Fei, who first invested in the second shot, and then invested in Kuaishou, there are many talented people in Morningside Capital, and they have been eyeing short videos for a long time.

Hanging up the phone, Tang Juexiao pondered, Su Hua should join Kuaishou.

The investor is also a partner, and Shengtang is rich in resources, and Tang Juexiao also said that he wants to enter the investment field. He is bolder and more trendy than Little Pony, so he is quick to ...... Now I guess I think he is the first consideration as a partner?

"Douyin in the south, Kuaishou in the north, and the two giants of China's intellectual disability...... Of course, that's how the joker makes up jokes, but as a tech worker, I definitely don't think so...... Uh, to put it this way...... If you can't see it, who will see it......"

The "3Q War" made Xiao Ma highly nervous......

Before Tang Juexiao's rebirth, Douyin was already very good, and what can make Xiao Ma highly nervous again, presumably it can only be Douyin at that stage, after all, the user stickiness is too high, and many people watch it for several hours a day.

Think about it, if it starts, will it be called ...... Headache war?

And the short video that can fight with Douyin is only Kuaishou.

Kuaishou's principal made an appointment to meet ......

That night, Tang Juexiao asked Liu Huan to reply, Sheng Tang was willing to see each other, Tang Juexiao was very interested in this, and he would appear.

Kuaishou was suddenly pleasantly surprised, and "Nangui Star" and "Artificial Intelligence" came forward in person, which in itself represents the success of the product.

can let the current Tang Juexiao come forward in person, where will the upper limit be in the future?

The two sides communicated in various ways, and the other party wanted to have a treat, but the Kuaishou at this time was very shabby...... No, it should be said that Kuaishou until 2017 was shabby, and their strategy was very different from Douyin at first, not for money.

Sheng Tang said several times that he would have a treat, and many people were interested in short videos, but it was difficult for the other party to watch the hospitality, so he agreed......

When you know the time and place, oh, the internal restaurant of Shengtang...... You're so good......

Cheng Yixiao and his entourage met Tang Juexiao, the core figure of the "Xueba Army" in the science and technology circle, and Tang Juexiao and others also met the founder of the famous "Lao Tie Economy" in the future......

In the high-end restaurant inside the Tang Dynasty, Tang Juexiao invites everyone to eat Japanese food.

The most high-end restaurant in the Tang Dynasty is for a few dozen people such as Tang Juexiao, Liu Huan, Chen Tong, etc., whether it is the ingredients or cooking skills, they are the top in the world. At this time, Japanese cuisine has a high status, and it is the evolution of Chinese food, which is suitable for the appetite of Chinese people. High-quality seafood, with delicious drinks, and many benefits of the meal system, many people in the IT circle like this bite.

There are eight people who came, among which Zhang Fei is Tang Juexiao's old acquaintance, after all, they also voted for millet. If you want to talk about things here, you must have an intermediary who is familiar with both sides.

Cheng Yixiao is an ordinary modeling programmer, Su Hua is a little fat, and Zhang Fei has a gentle smile.

There are four core members of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Juexiao, Liu Huan, Ye Xin, and Chen Tong.

Eating tuna sushi and drinking Moutai, the atmosphere gradually heats up......

Zhang Fei smiled and toasted with Tang Juexiao, and said: "When I first invested in Cheng Yixiao, he was doing it alone, he almost didn't understand anything, and at that time, I went to deposit 2 million budgets in his bank, and I bought 20%. He really ...... He's a great programmer, but he's not good at anything else. ”

Tang Juexiao pondered for a moment: "That is to say, at that time, you estimated 10 million? A person who buried himself in writing code for two years and made a product worth 10 million is amazing." ”

Cheng Yixiao was a little embarrassed: "It's Mr. Tang who is powerful." ”

Zhang Fei said: "Actually, I cast the second shot first, and Han Kun was still cool 6 at that time." ”

Hearing Cool 6, Tang Juexiao smiled weirdly, and then everyone present laughed...... It's another thing that was played by Brother Tianqiao......

Han Kun is also a cow man, initially in the Sohu portal ChinaRen as the editor-in-chief, and later did cool 6 to the listing, after being made by Brother Tianqiao to collapse, he left and then started a "technology", the main products are second shooting, small coffee show, a live broadcast.

"Han Kun was still cool 6 at the time, so I pulled him out to start a business. At that time, I didn't feel very stable when I invested alone, so I pulled Lei Liang and Zhang Hongyu from PPS to be Han Kun's angel investors together. Later, someone else recommended Kuaishou to me, and I used it a little bit, and I found that it was a very magical thing, so I voted for him. ”
