In 2010.

Early March.

On the other side of the ocean, Lao Mei has happened to something that ordinary people rarely pay attention to, but many Internet bigwigs in China attach great importance to. forehead

Google made an offer to buy Groupon, and the purchase amount rose from $1.3 billion at the beginning, to 5.8 billion four months later, and finally to a staggering $6 billion around July 15.

What is Groupon?

Group translation is a group, coupon is a coupon, although it is only a startup company that has been established for more than a year, its idea is novel, and online group buying has done well.

The companies that Google wants to acquire at a valuation of $6 billion must be the trendy companies of the future.

July 16th.

Ma Yunhua saw the news that lasted for four months, but finally ended with Groupon's refusal.

Andrew, the founder of Groupon, gave a public speech in front of reporters, he was very serious and rampant to tell reporters that Google underestimated the value of Groupon, and Groupon's market value is about $20 billion, or even about $30 billion, 6 billion, which is simply a money grab!

After Ma Yunhua saw this news, she was very excited, and asked the secretary to collect all the information of Groupon overnight, and the more detailed the better.

In fact......

The Internet competition of the United States has always played a role in learning from many of the Internet in China.

At the end of 03, Ma Yunhua saw an Internet shopping website called Yibei in Lao Mei, and he was still engaged in Internet address books, and he instantly felt that his brain exploded.

With the increasing number of Internet users in China and the improvement of all aspects, traditional TV shopping will eventually be eliminated, and online shopping is the real mainstream!

Then, a voice in his head kept telling him that he had to imitate this model, and then become the Chinese people's own shopping website and become the pig on the tuyere!

【Taozhu】Initial ......

It's really tough.

Despite the successful cases of the United States, a group of capitals of Huaxia Internet in 04 are still in a relatively conservative stage for this novel online shopping model.

Ma Yunhua, who ran into walls everywhere, did not give up this track, gritted her teeth and persisted for a long time, and after continuous lobbying, she finally attracted Japanese investors......

With that investment, Ma Yunhua finally built [Taozhu.com] into the most authoritative and only huge Internet shopping website in China.

Today, July 2010, the market value of [Taozhu.com] has reached nearly 15 billion US dollars, with a staggering 340 million registered users, 730 million online goods, and an average of 480 million goods sold every minute.

"The future of Huaxia group buying is the outlet."

"Be sure to speed up ......"

July 16th.

Morning.

After Ma Yunhua saw Lao Mei's news, a trace of essence flashed in her eyes, and a trace of ruthlessness suddenly emerged from his eyes!

Now with a market capitalization of nearly $15 billion, he has a lot of money in his hands, but he is far from satisfied.

According to one statistic, his Taozhu actually accounts for only 60 percent of the total market value of Huaxia's online shopping sites.

There are also 40 percent of small online shopping sites that are still alive, albeit with a hard time, and every once in a while they go out of business......

But......

There will always be new websites that will be launched and then take away some market share.

Behind these websites, there are Q dogs, eBay games and other capitals......

Ma Yunhua silently these small shopping stations!

The news of Google's acquisition of Groupon will soon spread to Huaxia, and after it reaches Huaxia, the capital behind those small shopping websites will definitely be gearing up and eager to try.

He already had a premonition that a war without gunpowder was about to start on the Huaxia Internet.

This is an opportunity, just like the rise of [Taozhu.com] at the beginning, it is taking advantage of the opportunity of the times, and then it got up!

He narrowed his eyes, and the murderous intent in his eyes intensified.

For some small online shopping websites, it is indeed an opportunity, but for [Taozhu.com], why not an opportunity?

The remaining forty percent of the market share, he has to swallow at least another twenty percent!

"Meeting!"

"Throw money!"

"[Taozhu.com] has reopened a new project!"

……………………………………

On the morning of July 16th.

Zhang Sheng got up early in the morning.

When you wake up, you can take a walk and eat breakfast.

Since [NC Entertainment] moved to a new company, Shen Xiaoxi has led people to bid for his own canteen.

The canteen is not very big, about 50 people can eat, but the dishes in the canteen are relatively exquisite, with chicken, duck, fish, meat and vegetarian dishes!

"Mr. Zhang, the information you asked me to find, I found out, Lao Mei's side, there is indeed a group buying website, it is called Groupon, in fact, since March, this Groupon has been in the process of discussing the acquisition with Google, just yesterday ......"

"Is the Groupon domain registered?"

"Huh?"

Shen Xiaoxi introduced Groupon's information while eating breakfast, and after Zhang Sheng coldly asked whether the Groupon domain name was registered, Shen Xiaoxi almost coughed.

She really hasn't checked this question.

"If you don't have it registered in Huaxia, send someone to register Groupon's domain name now......

"Cough, cough, Mr. Zhang, isn't it shameless for us to do this?"

"Lao Mei can be called Groupon on the other side, why can't we register this here in Huaxia? By the way, not only to register the English domain name, but also to register Chinese! ”

"Chinese?"

"Yes!"

Shen Xiaoxi was a little stunned, but he really felt that Mr. Zhang's face could say such a dividing word.

Sven scum?

She shook her head violently, and she couldn't think about such a mess.

"Mr. Shen, have you called those brands?"

"Called......"

"How many are there?"

"There are about 300 ...... in total"

"I want the information of these 300 companies, I will pick out the corresponding 100 cooperative businesses in the morning, and you are responsible for inviting them one by one at noon, and I will talk to them......"

"Okay!"

"It must be fast, the first person to eat crabs can really eat, I will be very busy recently, the business of [NC Entertainment] will be all handed over to you, the investment below the level of 10 million, you can look at the ......"

"Good!"

Shen Xiaoxi nodded.

Then his eyes couldn't help but sneak a glance at Zhang Sheng.

"What's wrong? Flowers on my face? ”

"No, no...... Mr. Zhang, can you ask a comparative, personal question? ”

"Ask!"

"Isn't our company, that, just recently [NC Entertainment] gradually formalized? I am formulating our company's management system, and I would like to inquire about whether our company is taboo or not......"

"Speak directly, don't stumble, Mr. Shen, those who do big things must be capable and bold! Be bold, what you have to face in the future is not me, but a lot of capital tycoons......" When Zhang Sheng saw Shen Xiaoxi's expression slightly red, and he looked like he was spitting for a while, he immediately frowned.

"Mr. Zhang, is it taboo in our company to fall in love in the office? If it's taboo, I'll put it in the rules......"

"As long as it does not affect the work, in principle, we are not taboo......"

"Oh, oh."

"And what do you think about office love?" Shen Xiaoxi hesitated for a moment, and finally looked at Zhang Sheng with the courage to look at him with a bit of hope in his eyes.

"I don't have any opinion, after all, love is free, although it is not forbidden in principle, but during work, I still don't approve of falling in love......" Zhang Sheng stared at Shen Xiaoxi seriously while eating: "Of course, the time to get off work is the time to get off work......"

"Uh-oh." Shen Xiaoxi nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and then ate breakfast in a sullen voice.

When breakfast was about to be finished, she suddenly looked up at Zhang Sheng with the courage to do so, and her words were a little tentative: "Mr. Zhang, this year [Huaxia Film Group] has introduced a lot of overseas blockbusters, and in our [NC Entertainment] film field, there will be some blockbusters involved in the future, and it just so happens that a superhero movie called "Superman: Wings of Steel" will be released tonight, I vaguely feel that this is another finished product of the overseas film industry industry, but my understanding of movies is relatively shallow, I think, are you free at night?" I'd like to invite you to review this Superman: Wings of Steel ......"

Shen Xiaoxi said a lot of things in one breath.

Zhang Sheng listened very carefully.

But he didn't respond to Shen Xiaoxi's words, but fell into deep thought.

"Mr. Zhang, don't get me wrong, I mean, my understanding of the word film industry is relatively shallow, I think so, in the millennium, Hollywood blockbusters hit the world, completely crushing the film industry system that has not yet been established on Hong Kong Island, I think that in the future, we can also establish our own film industry system in China......"

Mr. Zhang...... I've been studying and watching movies lately, especially Hollywood movies, and I've been watching, and I've found that since '06, the movies that Hollywood has exported to the world are basically their ideology, and this ideology can easily make outsiders build a nihilistic worship idea for them......"

"The more carefully I checked the information, and I also talked to Director Bi and them, the more I found out that this was actually a cultural war without gunpowder, and this war began to start a long, long time ago......"

"Moreover, our Huaxia belongs to the stage of complete collapse, and Huaxia filmmakers, including many fans, bloggers, and media, have an almost fanatical sense of worship for the West, and I have seen many bloggers on the Internet talking about how good the West is and how bad our China is......"

"And, Mr. Zhang, you look at the three major film festivals in Europe and the United States, you look at the Oscars, how many of us think it is a palace-level world? Many directors in China, led by Zheng Shaoshuai and Director Zheng, the early six generations of directors, to put it mildly, their early works were all very one-sided filming the ugly side of our Huaxia, and then won the West to win awards......"

"But aren't all those awards in the West controlled by some people?"

"Getting back to the point, so, Mr. Zhang, I think that in the future, we [NC Entertainment] can take another path......"

“……”

In the cafeteria.

Shen Xiaoxi chatted with Zhang Sheng endlessly.

Zhang Sheng pushed his glasses and listened to Shen Xiaoxi very seriously.

After finishing speaking, he suddenly had a new understanding of Shen Xiaoxi, and he realized that Shen Xiaoxi's future height and ceiling may not be just the owner of an entertainment company.

"Mr. Zhang, so I want to invite you to watch the "Superman: Wings of Steel" ......"

"Well, it's ......"

Just when Zhang Sheng nodded, these two words were about to be spoken.

His phone rang.

Subsequently......

He took out his mobile phone and saw that the call was from Lin Xia.

After seeing the phone number, he glanced at Shen Xiaoxi again: "I'll answer the phone." ”

"Okay!"

Shen Xiaoxi looked at the back of Zhang Sheng leaving.

Then we continued to eat breakfast.

About a few minutes later, he looked at Shen Xiaoxi: "Mr. Shen, I'll take someone to watch a movie together." ”

"Ah, bring someone?"

"Yes! Bring a friend......"
