Chapter 161: No one in the world knows you

Gu Cheng didn't know about what happened on Mango Terrace at all, because he never cared about it. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He only cares about his own business, and has no distractions.

There are some things, Gao Dasong and Lin Zhiling work together, find a safe and secure way, avenge Liu Hui, and then hide their merits and fame - to tell the truth in the legal circle, this kind of thing can be arrested, it is too tender, and the real old coward can't catch it.

Moreover, the revenge is only aimed at Mango Channel, and it will stop at the point, which not only ruined the 05 season webcast of the "Super Girl" program, but also knocked the mountain and Zhenhu to send in the middleman who helped the lining and peeling when he was looking for Director Song for Tengyun, killing two birds with one stone.

As for the person on Tengyun's side who directly stuffed money into Director Song to rebel, there was no need to deal with it at all.

Because Ma Teng is unintentional, the person he sent must be an unknown small fish and shrimp, and none of the people with identities on it will "know", even if they get to the bottom of it at any cost, it is impossible to get a character of the same grade as Liu Hui, it is meaningless.

Sometimes if you don't hit the dog owner, you can beat the dog's legs, which can hurt the other party. Because in this way, no one dares to be a dog. As for the master, he has his own frontal battlefield to slowly clean up.

This summer, in addition to the full bloom of the NICONICO video network in the three kingdoms of Huayi and Fusang, Gu Cheng's biggest success in business is the hot sale of "World of Warcraft".

"World of Warcraft" was launched in public beta in China during the May Day Golden Week, and in just two months, the 45-level capped version was completed, and the server with 500,000 people online at the same time was full of queues almost every day, which did enough for the starvation marketing scene.

The day before the winter break, June 30th, happened to be a Thursday for routine maintenance. At that time, Gu Cheng was still in the United States, and Warcraft ushered in the last maintenance before the official charge, and upgraded to the 60-level full-level version.

At the same time, after two months of running-in, the operation and maintenance team also carried out a huge expansion of the server, from the original 100 servers in two districts to 300 servers in five districts. The number of people online at the same time has also skyrocketed from 500,000 to 1.5 million.

Originally, when the two districts were in the north, only one data center room for Netcom services was set up in the capital in the north, and a data center room for telecommunications was set up in Hujiang in the south. Therefore, if there are occasional northern users using telecom and southern users using Netcom, it is still very easy to get stuck and the user experience is not good.

After the official charge, the data centers in the five districts were set up in Beijing, Hujiang, Guangzhou, Wuchang and XI'an. Among them, Wuchang in the south is also a network communication service, and XI security in the north is a telecom service, so that basically both the north and the south or the netizen users of Netcom Telecom can find a relatively optimal line login.

Behind this is naturally a huge amount of data center fund-raising work, and the hardware cost invested is also hundreds of millions of dollars. It's just that these jobs don't have any technical content, they are all manual jobs that can be done with money, and Gu Cheng won't ask about it.

The server, which has 1.5 million people online at the same time, is still full on the first day, and it is full every day, and after about two weeks, the popularity of some non-hardcore players has subsided slightly, and the situation has only slightly improved due to the diversion of users' playing time. At the very least, make sure you can log in to the game every day, even during peak hours, after waiting in line for more than an hour at most.

The average number of online users per hour on the server is approaching one million, and the entire game will consume 20 million point card hours in a day, 35 yuan and 4000 minutes of point cards, almost five cents an hour, and a revenue of 10 million yuan a day, which is 3.5 billion a year

And the popularity of World of Warcraft is obviously far from the hottest version.

As we all know, most Chinese players were influenced by the stand-alone version of Warcraft 3 before they entered the World of Warcraft, and the plot of Warcraft 3 could not be released until at least the future "World of Warcraft 3.0: Wrath of the Lich King".

And the current version 1.0 is just a warm-up plot.

Warm-up can earn 3.5 billion yuan a year, how terrible it will be in its heyday, no one dares to imagine.

……

"Recently, there have been rumors of your wealth everywhere on the Internet, and there are even many madmen who say, 'If Gu Cheng takes YY Entertainment to be listed again, there will be at least tens of billions of dollars in market value'. The rumors are terrifying, and there is no shortage of people on the Internet. ”

At the Jiangnan meeting, Ding Sanshi and Gu Cheng sat down to drink and chat again. At the banquet, Ding Sanshi couldn't help but complain about the wealth legends that have been circulating on the Internet in recent days. However, it is said that it is a complaint, and the tone is more envious.

Those laymen look lively, one blows more outrageously than the other. It seems that as long as Gu Cheng takes YY Entertainment to NASDAQ, he can become the richest man in China in minutes.

"The rumors stop at the wise, am I originally a cross-circle public figure, I have long been used to being gossiped about every day. Gu Cheng didn't care at all, and felt that the thickness of his face had evolved again.

Ding Sanshi held the wine glass and said half-jokingly: "People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, you are being watched by people every day, are you not afraid of unnecessary hatred?"

"What are you afraid of, those who engage in the Internet are afraid of being famous? Even Ma Teng's reputation is so stinky, I haven't seen him afraid, I'm afraid of Mao. ”

In later generations, Ma Teng was sprayed by netizens every day because he copied and copied too much, and made a lot of unconscionable online games. His family told him that he had the same attitude: forget it, when these people don't exist, there are more people who spray Lao Tzu, at least hundreds of millions, how old are they?

This remark is known to almost everyone in later generations, and it has thickened the thickness of the face of entrepreneurs in the entire industry.

Gu Cheng didn't want to waste time, so he brought the topic to the main topic of his banquet for Ding Sanshi today:

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm going to invite you to drink today, I'm telling you something-YY.com, I sold 10% of my shares to Peter Thiel and raised $500 million, and I can find some more money to privatize Huang Yi and delist it. I asked Liu Qian to do this, there will be news this month, and when the time comes, you will send an official privatization announcement in time, don't make a mistake. ”

Gu Cheng got money in the United States, and the most important thing to do after returning to China is, of course, to spend the money.

Ding Sanshi was already mentally prepared, but when he heard Gu Cheng officially tell him, he still sighed at Gu Cheng's efficiency and courage.

I talked to him about it in April and May, and now in August, I have raised enough money.

It is really unbelievable that a YY network can be valued at more than $40 billion by Peter Thiel, the godfather of venture capital in Silicon Valley.

"It seems that reality is sometimes more outrageous than legend. If there are a few more people in the world who are so optimistic about you, the legend of 'Gu Cheng can be worth at least tens of billions of dollars' that those trolls on the Internet may really be realized. ”

Ding Sanshi sighed with emotion, and chatted with Gu Cheng about some details of privatization, and by the way, confirmed the conditions for the formal equity exchange between Huang Yi Company and YY Entertainment in the future.

At the beginning, Gu Cheng negotiated with Ding Sanshi: in the future, Eslite Holdings will hold 60% of the equity of Huangyi Company, but Huangyi's existing shareholder team can also get 10% of YY Entertainment and 5% of Alipay's equity in exchange.

Considering that the current market and future value of YY Entertainment and Alipay are much higher than that of Huang Yi, who has passed his peak, Ding Sanshi had no objection to this transaction at that time.

However, after the change of the situation in recent months, Gu Cheng intends to make a little fine-tuning and not damage the original shareholder team of Huang Yi Company, but it is still necessary to make it clear to his partners.

"Alipay's 5% equity is still not missing you, but before delivery, I plan to make some adjustments to Alipay's own equity structure. Today I also invited Lao Ma, and when he arrives in a while, the three of us will explain this matter together. ”

Gu Cheng said his thoughts openly and honestly.

Ding Sanshi was suspicious, and another luxury car came outside the gate of the Jiangnan Association, and it was another guest today, Ma Feng, chairman of the board of directors of Ahri Baba, who came down.

The three media bigwigs of the Jiangnan Club are gathered together.

Ding Sanshi didn't need to ask, he probably already knew what was going on, so as soon as Ma Feng entered the door, he was teased: "Yo, old horse, it seems that you were also caught by Xiao Gu's sweet dates." After two years of working for Alipay, you were finally allowed to buy shares? How many shares of Ahri Baba did you let out?"

"You're all about to be delisted, so I won't be like you. Ma Feng quipped harmoniously.

Ding Sanshi retorted: "I saw through this and retreated bravely from the rapids." It was I who wanted to delist, not Nasdaq who forced me to delist. ”

The two exchanged a few words every day, and then sat down at the wine table and listened to Gu Cheng talk about today's business.

"Brother Ding, Brother Ma, after going to the United States this time to cooperate with Peter Thiel, plus cooperating with overseas financial institutions such as K-BANK in June, I thought about it a lot.

The current equity structure of Alipay is indeed very unfavorable for going out in the future - my YY, how to go out as you want, out of a multi-Chinese package, even if the international version, the United States people can use it, Fusang people can use it, Europeans can also use it. But Alipay has to go out, there are too many financial licenses involved, one country and one pit, and vested interests are complicated. I'm also powerless now, and I can't push it alone. ”

When Gu Cheng said this, he paused slightly, let the two of them digest it, and by the way, see if Ding Sanshi had any objections.

Then he continued the showdown: "So, I am going to set up a new Internet payment and financial credit data company, called Ant Financial." In the future, Ant Financial will be the controlling parent company of Alipay and hold a stake in Alipay. At the same time, Alipay only acts as the operator of the domestic version of online payment/credit data. In the United States, Fuso, and Dongyi, in each country, I will set up a brother company that is unified with Alipay in terms of software, but the back-end fund management and financial data/risk management are independent......"

When Gu Cheng said this, Ma Feng had already understood. In other words, the company "Alipay" in the future is only equivalent to "Alipay (Huaxia)", but there will also be "Alipay (Miguo)", "Alipay (Fusang)" and "Alipay (Dongyi)" under the name of Ant Financial.

In this way, Petertil's foundation will be invested in the future, which is "Alipay (米国)";

Sony will take a stake in "Alipay (Fuso)";

K-BANK will take a stake in Alipay (Dongyi).

The partners of every country can not interfere with each other and do not hinder each other.
