Chapter II: Initiative
It was also the first day of the new century, but Yunguang was very lively, with all kinds of media gathering in this emerging city in the southwest, among which there were mainly reporters from the IT and Internet editions, but there were also many entertainment reporters rushing to Wei Jing and Luo Yuan.
The press conference held by Fengyun Network, Thunder Online, and Kingsoft on the same day does have great news appeal.
The press conference of Thunder Online was held at 9 o'clock in the morning, and the Yunguang International Conference Center was already full of people, and if you count the number of reporters and photographers, there are thousands of people, including some reporters from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and the West in China.
Luo Yuan, who was wearing a grape purple suit, was extremely clearly outlined in her figure, the narrow short skirt couldn't cover her tight thighs at all, and the plain stockings looked very slippery, and when you touched it with your hands, it felt like it had slipped through the smooth ends of her hair.
Long hair dyed blonde and permed into big waves, peach-rimmed glasses, bewitching face, and thin eyes that can make a man's heartstrings tremble slightly when squinted, no matter how picky a man is, he can never deny that she is a natural stunner.
And when she doesn't laugh, there is a chilling feeling.
Luo Yuan is no longer the woman who rolls in the dust, and now she has been controlling this first network of media for nearly a year, and while exuding a strong sense of charm, her authority is also slowly being erected.
No one dares to underestimate this woman who is only in her twenties, and the media is accustomed to calling Wei Jing the rose of the empire, and she is the thorn flower of the empire.
When it is sweet, it can soften people's hearts and spleens, but when it is spiked, it makes people's hairs stand upside down.
Sitting next to her is Sui Yifan, who is becoming more and more resolute, although he still has a casual temperament in private, but in public places, the aura exuded by him can definitely be called skilled.
"Thunder Online will introduce the BX China search engine to expand the services it provides in search," Luo Yuan's silver bell-like voice was raised, and all the reporters looked at her face, "At the same time, it will increase investment in channel construction, community building and interaction, and will also expand the research and development of the instant messaging division within the year." ”
At this time, BX China was promoted to the media in a tactful way for the first time, and as Luo Yuan expected, it aroused the interest of many reporters.
"Miss Luo, what is the relationship between BX China and BX USA?" During the free question session, a journalist from Hong Kong asked the question with great interest.
"There is not much difference between BX USA and BX China in terms of technology, but they are two independently registered companies." Luo Yuan replied with a smile.
After the TV promo of BX America was broadcast in the United States, because it was arranged after the time slot of the English version of Swordsman Romance OL, and the TV promo of the English version of Swordsman OL included Chinese superstars such as Chow Yun-fat and Michelle Yeoh, and the Hong Kong media were as interested in BX America as the English version of Swordsman OL.
"What I want to ask is, I heard that the controlling party of Thunder Online has recently launched a large-scale dividend and exercise, how much is Miss Luo's equity in the controlling party?" A handsome reporter asked with a smile.
"Qian Hua, you know I won't answer your question." Luo Yuan smiled and pointed to another reporter, "That reporter, please." ”
Qian Hua is a business reporter of Yinhe Network and one of Luo Yuan's many suitors, when Luo Fei heard this, he just sneered, as if he was laughing at Qian Hua's leprosy ** wanting to eat swan meat.
And Luo Yuan got nearly one million in the dividend, and it was not enough to exercise all of them, and if she wanted to convert the options, it would be close to 0.1%, that is, 3 million shares.
The total share capital of the entire Xiling Holdings is 3 billion, and the exercise price is only 1 yuan per share, and the actual value, not counting the price-earnings ratio - after all, Xiling Holdings has not yet been listed - has ten times the value, that is, 10 yuan per share.
If it weren't for the fact that Xiling Holdings strictly prohibits private trading of options, it would have been speculated at an appalling price in the underground market.
After all, if it is calculated according to the price-earnings ratio of 20 times after listing, the value of this 1 share will be about 200 yuan, and if Luo Yuan exercises the right, the price of the shares in her hand will be at least 600 million yuan after the overall listing of Xiling Holdings.
No matter how strong the wealth-making company is, there are probably not many that can compare to Xiling Holdings.
"I would like to ask Miss Luo, there are rumors that the instant messaging software department will form an independent company, is that true?" A middle-aged reporter asked, pushing the glasses on the bridge of his nose.
"It's not clear whether an independent company will be established for the time being, but I think if it does, I will send a press release to Sina." Luo Yuan smiled.
The middle-aged journalist was newly joined by Sina after it took over a traditional media outlet, but he has some visibility in traditional media.
"What I want to ask is Mr. Sui, is the reason why Mr. Sui is here is in terms of online games, and Thunder Online will increase investment? Or is there some good news for us? A beautiful young female reporter got up and asked.
Luo Yuan smiled at Sui Yifan, and he smiled: "I'm helping Miss Luo stand on the platform, and I'll answer online games on her behalf." The joint operation center will definitely increase investment in online games, and in addition to the already operated Swordsman Love OL and God List OL, there will be new surprises. ”
As soon as he said this, the reporters below all held up the recorders and asked about the details.
Luo Yuan smiled and said: "The rest of the news, at the press conference of Kingsoft at two o'clock in the afternoon, Mr. Lei will explain it to everyone. ”
After the press conference of Thunder Online, all media reporters will be arranged to have dinner at the nearby Tianqing Hotel at noon, distribute gifts, and take a short rest, and there will be a press conference of Jinshan in the afternoon, while the press conference of Fengyun Network will be scheduled at 9 o'clock at night.
Even if you do it at this stage and have the first media on the Internet, the details that should be done will not be missed, such as sending small gifts, although it is a bad rule, there is no need to offend those reporters for such a trivial matter.
When Lei Jun arrived at the press conference, those media reporters in the capital greeted him warmly, after all, Lei Jun had been in the capital for a long time and was familiar with everyone.
The first news of Jinshan made these reporters very excited.
"Kingsoft will release the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon expansion pack on February 14."
With the authorization of director Ang Lee and the producer, and in order to make the English version of Swordsman Romance OL more suitable for the Western market, and in order to take advantage of the publicity momentum of the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon blockbuster, the relevant expansion film has been in development for a long time.
Now that we have reached the final stage of "finding the ballast", it is just right to launch it on Valentine's Day, which is becoming more and more influential.
"This is the first time that Kingsoft has launched an expansion pack, may I ask Mr. Lei and Mr. Sui, will this expansion also be launched on the English version?" The Hong Kong reporter asked excitedly.
"It's not time to ask questions yet, but I can answer your question," Lei Jun said with a smile, "Yes, the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon expansion will also be released in the English version, and at the same time, Chow Yun-fat, Michelle Lee and other spokespersons will come to China to cooperate with the promotion." ”
"What about Qin Xue?" A young and reckless male reporter asked eagerly.
Qin Xue is inconspicuous in the TV promo, but the Chinese and English versions of the theme song "Asking Love" sung by her are catchy because they are melodies composed by Gelman herself, and they have spread to the streets and alleys in a very short period of time.
But few people can know the news about Qin Xue, she is like a talented girl raised in the boudoir.
Lei Jun and Sui Yifan looked at each other and smiled, Qin Xue's news was afraid that only Wen Jun Shao would know.
"Gao Yuanyuan and Dong Jie will participate in the publicity." Lei Jun said a word and continued, "In addition to the two games that have been put into operation, Swordsman Romance OL and Fengshen Bang OL, within the year, King Kong will also launch a game based on Western mythology and fantasy, and a Q version of the game. ”
Q version of the game? Everyone is talking to each other, trying to find out what this Q version of the game means.
"If you want to know what the Q version of the game is, please pay attention to Kingsoft's next move."
Lei Jun's words made everyone a little depressed, which is the same as commenting on the most exciting time, it is extremely immoral to come to a "and listen to the next decomposition".
"Don't forget, Kingsoft is a traditional software manufacturer, not a simple online game factory," Lei Jun ignored the dissatisfaction below, and suddenly changed the conversation and said: "In the new year, Kingsoft will cooperate with the American digital library software giant Oracle to bring the British version of Wps and Kingsoft Poison to the American market." ”
This sentence made some of the following reporters with strict patriotism raise their hands and want to ask questions.
However, the reporters of the overseas media station in China were stunned, the news had been circulating in the United States for a long time, and now it was finally confirmed, but they really couldn't believe it was true.
Not to mention the gap between Wps and Office, with such determination, it is not comparable to the backward software industry in ordinary developing countries.
As a benchmark for national software enterprises, Jinshan finally gives people a feeling of raising their eyebrows today, but they don't know that in the hearts of Lei Jun and Qiu Zhongjun, this road is still far, far away.
At night, all the media reporters were excitedly discussing Kingsoft's entry into the U.S. market during the dinner, and some reporters had even begun to draft a most immediate press release.
More people are speculating about what kind of surprise Fengyun Network's press conference will give everyone.
When Wei Jing, the cold Imperial Rose on it, said the first message, the whole venue seemed to explode.
"The 20,000 Internet cafes under Fengyun Network will adjust the boarding fee, starting from the early morning of tonight, the boarding fee of each Internet café will be adjusted to 5 yuan per hour."
$5? Oh my God, it's 10 yuan an hour now, doesn't that mean that Fengyun Network has cut the price by half, then, is there still room for other Internet cafes to survive?
