Chapter 229: Cooperation

As soon as Lin came to the hotel lobby, after sitting for a while, Li Qiang walked in with a few people, and he recognized at a glance that the leader was Tencent's big boss Xiao Ma. With a parted head and the signature rimless glasses, he looks very elegant at first glance.

For the legendary little brother, Lin Yi is actually very curious, although he studied abroad very early, but QQ still used it. This is also the reason why he became interested in network software for the first time, so that he can learn this computer major and engage in this career, Xiao Ma can be said to be his enlightenment teacher.

Lin Yi still remembers that his classmates in his junior high school class basically had a few QQ numbers, and he still remembers that he also added a QQ class group back then.

It's just that Lin Yi's QQ number has long been gone, and he has forgotten the number, and he doesn't know if he can let Brother Xiao Ma get it back.

"Ma Dong, hello, I'm Lin Yi."

"Lin Dong, fortunately, you are really young and promising."

"Ma Dong has won the award."

Lin Yi and Brother Xiao Ma shook hands warmly, and after a few words of greeting, they came to the reserved restaurant box.

There were not many people at this dinner, except for Lin Yi, Tencent only came to Brother Xiaoma, Li Qiang and another man around 40 years old, a total of 4 of them.

After taking a seat, Li Qiang also introduced to Lin Yi out loud:

"Lin Dong, let me introduce to you, this is our senior vice president of Tencent and vice president Zhang Xiaolong, the founder of WeChat."

When Lin Yiyi heard that this middle-aged man was actually this one, he immediately stood up and shook his hand.

"Mr. Zhang, I have used WeChat, it is a very good software."

"Lin Dong, k I have also studied, and there are many functions that are also worthy of our WeChat reference."

The two slapped some rainbow farts at each other.

Although Lin Yi created K later than the time when WeChat came out, now, it is impossible to say which software is better, and it can be regarded as having its own advantages.

The advantage of WeChat lies in the big market of Huaxia, with a large user base and the drainage of QQ, so there are more registered users than k, and it is also the top ten software in the world with registered users.

The advantage of

This is the difference between the consumption concept of Chinese users and foreign users, Chinese users are accustomed to all kinds of free software, while foreign users are not so exclusive to the paid functions of the software, and feel that the charge is a matter of course.

The atmosphere of the dinner was very pleasant, and Lin Yi and Xiao Ma Ge also discussed more cooperation intentions between the two companies in the future, and had extensive discussions in the fields of social software, games and entertainment.

Especially after learning that Lin Yi also has a large-scale entertainment company in South Korea, Xiao Ma's interest is also quite large, and the current Korean Wave is very popular throughout Asia.

This mode of operation of Korean entertainment companies has also been borrowed by many entertainment companies in Asia, and Tencent certainly does not want to let go of such a big cake as the entertainment industry, after all, this is also a scale of hundreds of billions of Chinese coins a year.

"Lin Dong, do you think this mode of operation of Korean entertainment companies can be effective in China?"

Lin Yi thought about it for a moment before he said slowly:

"Ma Dong, the national situation is different, and in my opinion, this model of Korean entertainment companies is difficult to carry out in China. Mainly because there are not a few people who debut as idols at the age of 14 or 5 in South Korea, there are more boys and girls who are trainees at this age, and there are even younger ones, which is simply impossible in China, after all, this is still in the compulsory education stage, and the law does not allow it. What's more, Chinese parents will not let their children become trainees at such a young age, in the concept of Chinese parents, learning is the most important, just sing and dance as a hobby."

Hearing Lin Yi's explanation, Brother Xiao Ma also nodded and admitted:

"You're right, it's really an unavoidable problem."

"There is also a lack of a mature entertainment system in Huaxia at present, even if you cultivate idols, how to package and promote them is a big problem. After all, South Korea now has a very mature entertainment system, and the cooperation between brokerage companies, TV stations, etc. is very clear. Now there are 4 or 5 TV singing shows on TV stations in South Korea every week, plus the exposure of various variety shows, so that more ordinary people can know. New idols can also show their charm through these shows, so that fans will pay for it."

Brother Xiao Ma nodded, although he didn't understand these things, he could still understand what Lin Yi said, but the domestic environment was not something he could change, nor could a few entertainment companies change.

"Lin Dong, do you think this will work, we will set up an entertainment company in China, and we Tencent will be responsible for recruiting suitable trainees in China, and then send them to you, the star ship entertainment training, the cultivated artists can be active in two countries at the same time, we share resources, Tencent's current video website is also making its own variety shows and TV series, and even investing in movies, which can give priority to the artists of our two companies in the future." In addition, if your company's artists want to come to China for development, we will also provide some convenience."

Lin Yi heard Xiao Ma's suggestion and began to think about it seriously, this suggestion is still more beneficial to Tencent, after all, they need to pay very little, and Lin Yi's side will pay more, training trainees is not something that can be cultivated in a short period of time, this process will take at least 2 years or so, and the costs incurred during this period are quite a lot.

And Tencent said that the artists under Starship will come to China for activities, and at present, Starship can only take a T-ara, and other artists have no fan base in Huaxia.

However, the benefits are also obvious, after all, the Huaxia market is a big market that all Korean entertainment companies covet. If there is Tencent's assistance, Starship Entertainment can also take a bite of this big cake, although this bite will not be too big, but the profits generated will be considerable.

"Ma Dong, let's do it, I'll go back and think about it, and then I'll discuss it with the people in the company."

"Well, this is something that needs to be thought about."

Brother Xiao Ma is just such a proposal today, and he also knows that the establishment of a joint venture company cannot be facilitated by a simple few words, and it also involves the interests of various aspects, which need to be carefully considered.

Next, Lin Yi discussed the matter of mobile social software with Brother Xiaoma and Zhang Xiaolong.

Lin Yi didn't hide it, and said straightforwardly about his vision for the future of mobile social software, although it is also mobile social software, but after all, the market is different, and the competition in the future will not be too big.

After hearing Lin Yi's vision of the future of social software, the three of Tencent were a little shocked by his whimsy, and they can't imagine what kind of situation it would be like for a software to cover all aspects of people's lives, which may also be the next way for WeChat.

This also made Brother Xiao Ma and others even more impressed with Lin Yi, after all, he has ideas and the ability to realize them, and he is still such a young man in his early 20s. When these conditions are combined, it is difficult not to be taken seriously.

As the dinner came to an end, several people stopped talking about work, but started chatting.

Lin Yi also jokingly talked about the use of QQ when he was in junior high school, and when he learned that he had forgotten his QQ number, Brother Xiao Ma also laughed and promised Lin Yi that he would get his QQ number back.

After the dinner, several people said goodbye to each other, and Brother Xiao Ma also invited Lin Yi to visit Tencent's headquarters after tomorrow's unveiling ceremony of Dida Company, and Lin Yi was also glad to be invited, and he had long wanted to go to Tencent's headquarters to have a look.

When he returned to the hotel room, Lin Yi found that there was no one in the room, and the little girls didn't know where to go.

Taking out his mobile phone, Lin Yi dialed Pei Zhuhyun's phone, and after the ringtone rang a few times, it was connected.

Before Lin could ask, there was a sweet voice on the other end of the phone

And the sound rang out:

"Oba, we're in the hotel pool, come on."

"Pool? Okay, you wait for me a moment."

Lin Yi hung up the phone in surprise, he remembered that Bae Joo-hyun was very afraid of water, and the last time they were together on Jeju Island, she didn't dare to go into the sea to play in the water, so why did she go to the pool again.
