Chapter 1293: Then I'll Take the Stage
The arrival of Li Yu's family of three made Hongyanrong Winery lively. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Little Li Leyang has undoubtedly become the center of the entire winery, and even the French employees in the winery have changed their ways to please Li Leyang with gifts, just begging her to smile.
The second change in the arrival of the three members of the Li family is that they can make up two tables of mahjong, one table for men and one table for women, Dong Xue will rest after 40 minutes, and the two tables will become one table.
The reason why they are "enthusiastic" about playing mahjong is because Bian's father and mother were a bit bored in the winery in the past few months, and then the two wanted to see Dong Wenzheng and Li Qingru's cards by playing cards.
Interestingly, Dong Wenzheng and Li Qingru's thoughts are similar to Bian's parents and Bian's parents, and they also want to see the cards of the three members of the Bian family by playing cards.
Anyone with a certain amount of social experience knows that the quickest way to observe a person's character is to pull him to drink, and the other is to pull him to play cards.
Drinking wine to see wine, playing cards to see cards, wine and brand products combined, you can basically judge a person's character.
There is a basis for this.
People with superior cards are happy to win, not angry when they lose, play cards without hurry, talk and laugh, entertainment first, and will not be compared.
People with middle and lower grades, the performance is varied, but there are no more than a few kinds -- when winning money, dancing and talking, when losing money, silent and silent, face like a bitter gourd; when winning money, shouting five and drinking six, when losing money, complaining about this and that; when winning money, urging people to give money, when losing money, there is money not to give; every bar must shout, every Hu must shout, after self-draw, the cards are thrown loudly; the cards are very slow, hesitant, and immediately after playing the cards, they pat their thighs; a few handfuls are not happy, always love to touch the cards in advance, lose exaggerated amounts, win and say that they did not win...... All this, although it does not completely negate a person, does reflect the temperament and weakness in a person's bones, and the character weaknesses in a person will eventually become a stumbling block on the road of life.
Take Bian Xuedao as an example, if a subordinate exposes several cards that he doesn't like, that person's upside will be affected.
Not only subordinates, but also the most annoying of Bian Xuedao is to draw cards in advance, hesitate to play cards, and self-draw if it appears on someone, that person can not walk into the circle of Bian Xuedao, even if it is a relative, it must only be superficially close, and it is difficult to get more benefits from Bian Xuedao.
Li Yu's brand is good, which has been verified in college, so Bian Xuedao played with him this time, mainly observing Dong Wenzheng and Li Qingru.
He is no longer the obscure little review in another time and space, with a lot of business and various implications, even if Dong Xue does not have a public name, the Dong family will still be regarded by the outside world as a relative of the Bian family.
has a comprehensive understanding of Dong Wenzheng and Li Qingru, which is convenient for Bian Xuedao to set the distance between each other, especially after having a deep conversation with Dong Wenzheng, Bian Xuedao faintly has an idea in his heart - this father-in-law seems to be available!
Of course, in view of the identity of the father and daughter of the Dong family, where and how Dong Wenzheng is used is a great test of Bian Xuedao's control and ingenuity, but if Dong Wenzheng is just allowed to grow old in a small supermarket in Zurich, it seems to be a waste.
In the villa.
Through the four-hour card game, Bian Xuedao roughly touched Dong Wenzheng's card style - others often don't fire guns and like to draw themselves.
In Bian Xuedao's view, most of the people with this style of cards are big gamblers, because they don't like to win with little money, and they win big.
While playing cards, while learning the Tao, I thought in my mind: How should such a person be used?
……
……
On March 3, Bordeaux time, spring in the suburbs gradually appeared.
Li Xun and Li Leyang decided to live in the winery for a period of time, and after settling their wives and daughters, Li Yu wanted to return to China and continue to sit in the group headquarters, but he was pulled on the Gulfstream G550 by Bian Xuedao and asked Li Yu to fly to the United States with him.
Bian Xuedao has to fly to the United States.
Ten days ago, the general office of Youdao Group received a formal invitation letter from Tesla, inviting Bian Xuedao, chairman of Youdao Group, to attend the Tesla 2009 Annual Investor Conference held in Mountview, USA.
Seven days ago, Wen Congqian called and said that the official version of Minecraft had completed three tests, just waiting to fix a few game bugs, and was ready to launch on March 10.
1 day ago, Zhang Xiaolong called and reported on KKI's patent application and KKI's global download data for half a month after its launch, among which North America ranked first in the world, and the daily downloads increased day by day, and there has been a hot momentum. On March 1, six U.S. media reported on KKI, calling KKI "the world's first mobile communication application software" and saying that KKI's "design maturity is surprising."
According to Zhang Xiaolong's estimates, there will be a wave of download peaks in March, and the average number of daily registered users in North America may exceed 500,000. Such a momentum of development is bound to attract the attention of relevant departments in the United States, because the US Government is particularly sensitive to information security and national security.
At this time, it is necessary for someone of Bian Xuedao's level to come forward to ensure the security of KKI's information.
Of course, verbal guarantees are useless, what can really make Americans feel a little at ease is to store the information of KKI North American users in the North American node of Youdao IDC data center, and at the same time show sufficient cooperation, set up a U.S. branch, hire an American or American citizen as the company's CEO, and even be prepared to sell the branch when the price is right.
No, it would be a fool's dream for a Chinese company-developed messaging software to take root in the United States.

Aerodrome.
The person was already on the plane, and Li Yu was still asking: "There are a lot of things in the group, what should I do in the United States?"
Bian Xuedao pulled down the porthole baffle and said: "The work is not finished, so you should be distracted." ”
"If you want to relax, there will be a lot of opportunities in the future, and there will be a big rotation soon, and I'm afraid that someone will be a moth. Li Yu said with a hint of worry.
beckoned the stewardess to come over with a bottle of red wine, and said with a smile: "Don't worry! I know that you are with me, and I am afraid that you will make a report, and I guess I won't be able to sleep well." As for the others, how stupid their brains are, they dare to jump out at this time. Having said that, you are so tense every day, you are tired, and your subordinates are also tired. In the discipline of management, in addition to clear rewards and punishments, grace and power, there is also a point of relaxation......"
While talking, the stewardess came over with a dining car, poured a glass of red wine for Bian Xuedao and Li Yu, and said with a smile: "Mr. Bian, the plane will take off in 5 minutes, and I will hear the announcement after a while, please fasten your seat belt in time." ”
20 minutes later.
Looking at the clouds under the fuselage through the porthole for a while, Li Yu said with emotion: "The noise of your plane is much smaller than that of a civil airliner, and you really enjoy sitting there." ”
Putting down the wine glass, Bian Xuedao said with a smile: "Such an expensive thing, if it has no advantages, who will sell it to?"
After thinking about it, Li Yu said: "After KKI was launched this time, there was rave reviews from all walks of life, and the drafts criticizing the 'Yangcheng R&D Center' in the stomachs of the people of Zhiwei Technology were blocked, and you really read it right, Zhang Xiaolong is indeed a talent." ”
Nodding, Bian Xuedao said: "It is normal for Zhiwei Technology to have ideas about the Yangcheng R&D Center, but this is also just to cultivate an atmosphere of internal competition, otherwise more and more people feel that they can lie on the merit book to earn a salary, do not take the initiative to recharge, do not continue to study, and do not want to think about leaving Youdao and which company will give them such a high salary...... There is one thing you have to prepare for in your heart, the group has almost entered the group in the past two years, and from next year, in principle, the group will only be able to enter and exit in terms of manpower within two years......"
"Two years only in and out?" Li Yu looked at Bian Xuedao and said, "I'm afraid that public opinion will put a lot of pressure on the group." ”
Bian Xuedao leaned on the sofa and said: "Every company has its own pace of development, and it is not the turn of outsiders to point fingers. Starting from next year, the group should put the concept of "per capita benefit" in an important position, whether it is an individual or a department, as long as the per capita benefit is not up to standard, the cut should be cut, the withdrawal should be withdrawn, the guan should be closed, and the merger should be merged. ”
After staring at Bian Xuedao for a few seconds, Li Yu said, "Seeing you this time, you seem to be a little different from before." ”
"It's different?" Bian Xuedao picked up the wine bottle on the table, poured half a glass into his own glass, and then handed the wine bottle to Li Yu, saying, "I'm still me, but I want to make Youdao look different." ”
"The real achievement of the company, must be the concept of advanced, leading the technology, leading the market of the company, if you want to go further, you must concentrate on improving their ability to organize funds, talents, raw materials and markets on a global scale, a company can not achieve this goal. ”
Li Yu listened, thought for a while and said: "What you just said seems to have nothing to do with the group's all-out promotion of the deployment of several variety shows this year!"
Bian Xuedao shook his head and said, "The two are not in conflict. It's great to be ahead of the concept, it's great to be ahead of the curve, it's great to be technologically advanced, and the output mode is also remarkable. ”
Li Yu stared at him and said, "I didn't understand." ”
Bian Xuedao explained: "If several variety shows this year can become popular, it may attract foreign companies to come to us to buy program copyrights and take them to other countries to produce and broadcast." At that point, Youdao is not only a hero of cultural export, but also equivalent to brushing up the sense of existence in various countries with the help of model output, and the strategy of going abroad will get twice the result with half the effort. ”
Li Yu was in charge of supervision, and his understanding of the specific business of the front line was limited, and he was stunned by Bian Xuedao's words, and couldn't help but say: "Brother, the Spring Festival Gala is not good, how many foreigners watch it? Why do you think that an entertainment program broadcast in China can make foreigners pay attention, and they still come to buy copyrights." ”
Bian Xuedao smiled and said, "That's why I said...... As long as the fire passes a certain critical point and becomes a super-phenomenal popular program, everything is possible. ”
Blinking, Li Yu picked up the wine glass and said: "This year's three programs ...... "The Voice", "True Singer", and "Run". The first two could have looked for Shen Fu, with her popularity, as long as the news came out, she would be able to become popular before it was broadcast, but the problem was that Shen Fu was pregnant! I won't talk about this year's show, and it's hard to say whether she can participate in the recording next year. ”
"This strongest trump card can't be played, even if you use Weibo to fully publicize and build momentum, it's no problem to be popular, but how to ensure that the show is as popular as you said, jumping over the 'phenomenal' critical point, and the fire is so popular that it attracts foreigners. ”
After Li Yu finished speaking, Bian Xuedao didn't answer, but just looked at Li Yu and smiled meaningfully.
In just a few seconds, Li Yu was laughed by Bian Xuedao.
Because the eyes of Xuedao on the other side are exactly the same as those when he pulled Li Yu to the balcony to sing to Xu Shangxiu three years ago.
Thinking of this, Li Yu lay on the sofa, covered his eyes and said, "I shouldn't have gotten on the plane with you." ”
Bian Xuedao sat down and said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous, I know you have no professional training, and it is too difficult for you to be on "True Singer", but you can be on "The Voice"! Half of the voices are amateurs, semi-professional singers, resident singers, and professional singers who are not popular account for the other half. ”
"I don't listen...... Is there a knife on the plane, you just give me a knife. Li Yu rolled over and wailed.
Bian Xuedao insisted on following the path and said: "Look, you are not only a member of 'Meet Brothers', but also a member of 'People Who Learned the Tao', you have sung songs, cooperated with the queen Shen Fu on stage, and now you are a corporate executive. Whether "The Voice" can be a big hit, you are the key!"
"I don't ......listen," Li Yu continued to cover his eyes in opposition.
"If you don't listen to me, I have to say, Shen Fu's Zhang Wang can't fight, he can only beat you, Zhang Wang. ”
When Li Yu heard this, he took away the hand covering his eyes and said, "Why does your words sound like scolding?"
Bian Xuedao said with a smile: "I'm praising you!"
Li Yu sat up and said: "If you want to talk about the big and small kings, how can it not be my turn, Shen Fu is the king, you are the little king, Shen Fu is the little king, you are the king." 'Meet a brother' and 'a person who learns the Tao' you also have a share, and when you really go on the show, when you mention 'meeting a brother', what do I say? What does it matter if there is only one person in a group? If public opinion expects you to take the stage, what will you do?"
"Then I'll be on stage!"
Bian Xuedao fluttered a few words, like a lightning bolt in the void slashing on Li Yu's head.
After staying for about 10 seconds, Li Yu looked at Bian Xuedao and said, "You?
Bian Xuedao nodded: "Yes." ”
"Are you crazy?"
"Nope. ”
"You...... You ......"
"My own company's program, I show up to create momentum, is there a problem?"
"It's not...... But ......"
"It's nothing, "The Voice" must be a hit, Shen Fu can't come, I have to go in person. My identity is not suitable to be a mentor, nor is it suitable to be a student, so I can only let you go on stage first, with 'meeting brothers' as the starting point, create topics, and at the same time accumulate public opinion heat and a sense of expectation, and when you enter the top 8, I will take the stage as a guest singer to pull the popularity of the show to the highest point. ”
There was silence in the cabin.
After a while, Li Yu asked solemnly, "Are you serious?"
Bian Xuedao nodded: "Digging people, going abroad to investigate and study, forming a director's team, a film crew, an editing team, a subtitle group, a global audition, a live band, star resources, and looking for partners...... Liao Lian has worked hard for a year and a half. ”
"Let's talk about money! Not counting the investment in Dongxing Satellite TV, in order to prepare for these programs, the group's total investment in the early stage is nearly 100 million, counting all the production costs, it is expected to be 230 million, you say, can I not be serious?"
Li Yu sighed and said, "I shouldn't have asked you to write songs for Li Xun back then." ”
Bian Xuedao hugged Li Yu's shoulders and smiled: "It's too late to say these things now, you still have to think about choosing a song, I already helped you register with Liao Lian yesterday." ”
Li Yu: "......"
