Chapter Ninety-Six: Wanda's Ambition and Tengxin's Pan-Entertainment
If there are any companies in the two worlds that Lin Mu admires, then there are only two.
One is Wanda and the other is Tencent.
From real estate, to shopping malls, to commercial centers, to cinemas, to investment in film and television, Wanda is walking its own path step by step.
Involved in a large number of industries, high-end hotels
Wanda Hotel Construction Co., Ltd. is the largest enterprise in China's five-star hotel investment, and has opened 55 five-star and super five-star hotels. It plans to open 89 five-star and super five-star hotels by 2015, with a business area of 4 million square meters, becoming the world's largest five-star hotel owner.
Cultural tourism
Led by Wanda Group, together with five top private enterprises in China, including Huaxia Oceanwide, Legend Holdings, Yifang Group and Elion Resources, Wanda Group is building world-class tourist resorts in Changbai/Shan, Xishuang/Banna, Da/Lianjinshi, Hai/Nan and other places, with a total investment of more than 100 billion yuan. With Asia's largest ski resort, a large-scale theme park comparable to Xiangjiang Disneyland, the world's largest film and television cultural industry park, a world-class large-scale stage show, and a total of more than 50 high-end tourist resort hotels, tourism investment is becoming Wanda's new pillar industry.
Wanda Group began to invest in the cultural industry in 2005, and has entered the four industries of large-scale stage performance, film projection production, chain cultural entertainment, and Chinese calligraphy and painting collection, and has become the largest enterprise in the Chinese cultural industry for many years.
Large-scale stage performances
Wanda Group and the world-famous American Frank Company jointly established a performing arts company, which will invest 10 billion yuan to launch five world-class stage performance programs in Wuhan/Han, Da/Lian, San/Asia and other places, to create a Chinese cultural brand with global influence.
The "Stage Show" created by Wanda Group integrates stage programs, underwater programs, stage changes and movements, and high-tech sound and light, and is a stage program that surpasses all performing arts levels in the world.
Film screening production
Wanda Cinema Line is the No. 1 cinema chain in Asia, with 142 five-star cinemas and 1,247 screens, including 89 IMAX screens, accounting for 15% of the country's box office share. It is planned to open 200 cinemas by 2015 with 2,000 screens, becoming the world's leading cinema chain.
Chain culture and entertainment
"Big Singer" is a chain entertainment enterprise invested by Wanda Group, providing civilized and healthy entertainment for the masses, has opened 81 stores across the country, and plans to open 130 stores by 2015, becoming a large-scale chain enterprise in China's cultural industry.
Collection of Chinese calligraphy and paintings
Wanda Group focuses on the collection of modern and modern Chinese calligraphy and paintings, and has collected nearly 1,000 pieces for more than 20 years, making it one of the largest collection enterprises in China.
Department store chains
Wanda Group was established in 2007 thousands of department stores, has opened 78 department stores in Beijing, Beijing, Shanghai, Shanghai, Beijing, Chengdu, Wuhan, Han and other places, and plans to open 125 stores by 2015, with a construction area of 3.34 million square meters, becoming the largest department store chain in China.
These are his cornerstones, and from the perspective of these industries, we can know that Wanda actually has a lot of thoughts.
The things I want to do are also very big, but I can't manage these forests, and I don't want to take care of them, just take one acre and three points of land by myself.
To say that Wanda is so good is not to say how Lin Mu wants to hug Wanda's thighs.
It is to explain what kind of support and what kind of help can be obtained if Lin Mu and Wanda cooperate.
At least, if you invest in movies, Lin Mu doesn't have to lack funds, and you don't have to worry about theaters when it's released.
Of course, there is also harm, such a large company, there is definitely not an iron bucket inside, there are many gangs, this is a must, and the forest is like a fish in the sea in Wanda, and it can't make any big waves.
Therefore, the in-depth cooperation between Linmu and Wanda is impossible, and the simple cooperation is okay, and it is good to limit the relationship between the issuer and the investor.
……
Another company, called Tencent, is the most promising company for Lin Mu.
On November 11, 1998, Ma Huateng and his classmate Zhang Zhidong officially registered and established "Shenzhen Tencent Computer System Co., Ltd." in Shenzhen City, Eastern Province, and then Xu Chenye, Chen Yidan, and Zeng Liqing joined one after another. At that time, the company's business was to expand the wireless network paging system and establish an online paging system for the paging station, which was the best choice for all small and medium-sized network service companies.
In February 1999, Tencent's Instant Messaging Service (OICQ) was launched, which was interconnected with wireless paging, G** SMS and IP telephone networks.
In November 1999, the number of registered QQ users reached 1 million.
In April 2000, the number of registered QQ users reached 5 million.
In June 2000, the number of registered users of QQ exceeded 10 million, and "Mobile QQ" entered the "new life of mobile" of China Unicom.
On January 31, 2001, NetValue announced the ranking of Internet websites and entities in five countries and regions in Asia, including the data of China Xiangjiang Special Economic Zone, South Korea, Singapore, China Bend Region and China Mainland, and Tencent ranked 6th in China.
In February 2001, the number of registered users of Tencent QQ had increased to 50 million.
In March 2002, the number of registered QQ users exceeded 100 million.
In July 2002, it advocated industry self-discipline and signed the "China Internet Industry Self-Discipline Convention".
In August 2003, the "QQ Game" was launched to once again lead the Internet entertainment experience. In September, the number of QQ user registrations rose to 200 million.
On September 9, 2003, Tencent announced the launch of its enterprise-level real-time communication product "Tencent Pass" (RTX) at the Beijing Kerry Center, marking Tencent's entry into the enterprise market as the first enterprise real-time communication service provider in China.
In December 2003, TencentMessenger (TencentTM), TencentTM's latest instant messaging software, was released to the public, providing instant communication between netizens in the office environment and acquaintances.
In April 2004, the number of registered users of QQ reached a new peak, exceeding 300 million.
On June 16, 2004, Tencent Holdings was officially listed on the main board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange with the stock code 700. It is the first Chinese Internet company to be listed on the main board of Hong Kong.
And Lin Mu is the most optimistic about Tencent, there is only one, only doing things, not speaking.
In his previous life, Lin Mu liked to play Tencent's games the most, and scolded Ma Huateng in the game, complained, and abused.
But Tencent's most awesome thing is here, he doesn't care about you at all, what can you do?
Ahem, far away.
Let's talk about the facts, first of all, in 88, Ma Huateng and a few of his friends already knew that the Internet would develop in the future.
And the most important thing on the network is the platform, so they made QQ, and then when the number of QQ people reached hundreds of millions, they made QQ games.
This is the game platform, from instant messaging to game platform, to QQ access for proxy games, to one-click login in all places on the network, to music, to video, to news, to e-sports, to competitions, to mobile games, to animation, to stand-alone, to IP.
Although the IP is basically occupied by the forest now, Tencent has not yet developed to this point, but it can still be seen that Tencent's ambitions.
What they want to do is not cross-industry, but pan-entertainment!
