Chapter 523: Talking to the Pony
"Boss, this quarter, the penguins' data is pretty beautiful."
"Up to now, the latest statistics, the number of registered users, has exceeded 200 million."
"The actual number of online users of Penguin has also exceeded the 30 million mark, and the number of active users in 30 days has now exceeded 10 million!"
"Moreover, since the beginning of last year, the number of netizens in China has begun to surge, and now the number of our users is also growing exponentially."
"It can be said that in the past few years, among the five domestic Internet users, at least three are our users, and one of them is our core user!"
"It's also good in terms of profitability."
"Penguin's main way of making money has expanded from the initial membership program to the Red Diamond, Penguin Show program, and the advertising revenue of the portal."
"At present, the profitability of the portal is low, but the income of the Penguin membership and red diamond business is very high, and in the last three months, the profit of Penguin can basically reach a net profit of more than 5 million!"
"Moreover, boss, the plan you read before, the penguin space we are going to open is basically completed now, and it is expected to be released in the near future, and the penguin yellow diamond business will also be issued at the same time."
"At the same time, according to your previous guidance, our current portal is just a springboard, and our portal has opened up user login and information exchange platform, and the next transformation of Penguin Weibo will definitely be successful!"
“……”
In the conference room of the hotel, Ma Huateng was in high spirits, reporting to Gu Xiu about the recent situation of penguins.
Although these data, every week and every quarter, they will actually be integrated and sent to Gu Xiu, the boss, for review.
But......
This kind of good data is just put in the mailbox file for the boss to see.
How boring is that?
You must report to your boss well.
What if the boss is happy and raises his basic salary?
After all, the data in front of you.
It's really strong!
At the same time, it sits firmly on the throne of the first Internet instant messaging in China.
Penguins today.
In this situation where most Internet companies are still losing money, they are growing crazy profits.
This is simply envious of peers!
"Yes, very good."
Gu Xiu naturally would not be stingy with his praise, even if the current penguin was still very weak compared to the powerful empire in his previous life.
But compared to the same period in the previous life.
The current penguins have come a long way.
As a boss.
Of course, when his subordinates achieve results, they should be praised to a certain extent, Gu Xiu praised a few words and asked:
"I heard Lao Tan say that a lot of capital has gone to visit the penguins during this time?"
"Yes, yes!" Speaking of this, Ma Huateng's mouth smiled crookedly, and his face was full of pride:
"During this time, our penguins are the goddesses destined to be untouchable in the capital circle, hahaha!"
"In fact, since the end of last year, our penguins have attracted a lot of attention from the capital circle, at the beginning, it was just some small investment companies, and then slowly, even some internationally renowned investment companies have also been found."
"Boss, our company estimates that we have to change the threshold, after all, the threshold stone has been broken during this time!"
"Hahaha!"
Speaking of this, Ma Huateng was really proud, and he had a feeling of raising his eyebrows.
In the same way, with admiration for his own boss.
After all.
When Gu Xiu first invested in penguins, the penguins still looked half-dead, and even became a burden that capital could not avoid.
Even the capital originally invested was one by one, trying every means to cash out Penguin's shares.
At the beginning, the pony ran into countless walls.
Even he, a technocratic otaku with some social fear, had to work hard to overcome his fear and go to one investment company after another to beg his grandfather to sue his grandmother for investment.
In the end, he still couldn't escape the fate of being touched.
But now?
That has finally changed.
The capitals who avoided him at the beginning, and even regarded him as a plague god calamity, now have to come to them politely one by one.
Hoping to catch up, I hope that I can accept the other party's investment.
However, these requests were rejected by Ma Huateng.
What is it called?
This is called, yesterday you ignored my love, and today you can't climb me.
Stop.
It's pretty cool!
And this situation is inseparable from the efforts of the Penguin employees themselves, but for the Penguin executives.
The biggest hero is undoubtedly his own boss Gu Xiu!
Even, recently, when the Penguin executives get together to chat, they often discuss an issue.
If the penguins hadn't had their own boss come down like a god.
Do penguins still exist today?
No one can come to a conclusion on this question, but one thing is for sure, without the boss, everyone's life would definitely not be as good as it is now.
But at this moment, Gu Xiu suddenly spoke:
"During this time, if a large overseas investment bank is interested, you can consider it."
"What?"
Gu Xiu's words made Ma Huateng stunned for a moment:
"Boss, what do you mean by that?"
"Don't worry, I'm not going to cash out." Of course, Gu Xiu knew Ma Huateng's worries, so he smiled at this time and gave him a reassurance.
As soon as these words came out.
Ma Huateng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Now the whole penguin's praise for the boss is very high, and what they are most worried about is actually the boss cashing out.
This is the norm for many Internet companies at the moment, but for the founders of Penguin, what they want is to break out of their careers.
Rather than being bought and sold by others.
Gu Xiu didn't plan to do this, which made Ma Huateng breathe a sigh of relief.
But......
"What do you mean, boss?" Ma Huateng couldn't help but be curious.
At the current rate of development of penguins, both the profitability and market valuation will only get higher and higher.
At this time, take the initiative to look for overseas investment.
What does the boss do?
"What do you think the penguin is going to do next?" Gu Xiu asked.
"What's next?" Ma Huateng sat up straight, thought for a while and said:
"Continue to increase the proportion and expand the market dominance."
"At the same time, increase profitability."
"Just like we're doing now, after the Penguin Space opens, it will definitely be able to attract more users to join again. And the penguin Weibo that you proposed earlier, boss. ”
"We've discussed this in a meeting, and it's equivalent to integrating the functions of forums, discussion communities, and large chat rooms, and the potential of Weibo is huge."
"We even imagined that if the major official departments, star media, crew propaganda and even the international situation could be discussed on Weibo in the future."
"In the future, even if we have mastered the domestic public opinion, we will basically be invincible!"
"Good idea!" Gu Xiu exclaimed.
Ma Huateng's ability is undoubted, and Weibo, which is still unfamiliar in this era, has been able to see the prospects.
This vision and ability alone has surpassed many people.
However, when he saw that Ma Huateng was quite proud with a smile on his face, Gu Xiu suddenly asked:
"And what's next?"
"What's next?" Ma Huateng was stunned.
"That's right." Gu Xiu nodded:
"Once you have mastered the channels of public opinion, and you have a profit target, you will always hold the instant messaging throne."
"How do you think the penguins should develop at that time?"
"This ......" Ma Huateng was stunned:
"This ...... It's so far away that I haven't thought about it yet. ”
Gu Xiu shook his head and smiled:
"You are the CEO of Penguin, and your vision determines how far Penguin will be able to go in the future, and you should think about that."
Ma Huateng nodded suddenly, and then thought of what Gu Xiu had just said:
"Boss, what do you mean ......"
"Overseas?"
