Chapter 1100 Yixin Valuation (5k)
The 2010 Spring Festival Gala was impressive. There was Faye Wong, the Little Tigers Gathering, Liu Qian’s Magic, and Zhao Benshan’s “Donation”. In the end, it was still customary to end with “Unforgettable Tonight”.
And, the innovative interaction it did this time is really unforgettable tonight.
Penguin is restless and unforgettable, and Ali is unsmiling and unforgettable.
As an unobtrusive related party, a group of people from China Unicom were surprised and delighted.
China Unicom has already made an agreement with Mr. Fang to implement China Unicom's investment in Yixin in the next year... Who would have thought that Yixin would have such a sudden explosion!
As Wu Yunjun, the vice president in charge of promoting this matter, he pondered over and over again until dawn, and then suddenly realized that there is nothing to ponder about, it must not be a hemorrhage!
No wonder he talked about investment with Mr. Fang over and over again, and Mr. Fang always said that he would talk about it after the year!
At that time, I thought that even if the number of users increased a little bit, the market value estimate would fluctuate slightly, which was within an acceptable range!
Now, this...how does this count?
Wu Yunjun just felt numb. He volunteered to advance this matter. He never expected that there would be such a big setback in the end. What if the two sides failed to agree and fell through...
However, Mr. Fang also made it clear that there would be a marketing campaign for the Chinese New Year, and he agreed to it!
Wu Yunjun briefly reviewed the process of communicating with each other, and found that the other party was quite open.
After thinking about it, he still dialed Mr. Fang's phone number, hoping to advance the scheduled meeting on the 20th to the 17th, so as to communicate openly and honestly with each other as soon as possible.
The 20th is the seventh day of the lunar new year, which is the first working day after the statutory holiday. The 17th is the fourth and third day of the first day, but it is necessary to work overtime.
"Mr. Wu, happy new year, don't we make an appointment on the seventh day of the new year? I still have something to do on the fourth day of the fourth day." Fang Zhuo was a little embarrassed after receiving the call.
"Mr. Fang, you Yixin..." Wu Yunjun was quite helpless, "We can't wait any longer. Let's hurry up and wait for more money to be invested."
Fang Zhuo was very happy, the other side was conscious, but he was still confused: "I do have something to do on the 17th."
"Is Mr. Fang still in the capital? What are you busy with on the fourth day of the new year?" Wu Yunjun made the call after notifying the executives first, thinking about taking some time to meet up, find out, and see his attitude.
"It's in the capital, but I have a global online meeting." Fang Zhuo paused, and then added, "I still have to watch the Penguin stock price."
Wu Yunjun instantly understood, this, this is really worth watching, let alone Mr. Fang, he wants to see it too.
He compromised and said, "Mr. Fang, how about we see you at 18 am on the 9th?"
"Okay, Mr. Wu, I'll pay you New Year's greetings on the 18th." Fang Zhuo agreed with a smile.
Hearing Mr. Fang's laughter, Wu Yunjun breathed a sigh of relief and then heaved a sigh of relief. He smiled heartily on the other side, but he always had a feeling of "Jie Jie Jie Jie" when he heard it.
Boss Fang really made a fortune this time... I'm afraid that the 8.8 million he burned would have to be paid back from his own house...
Netizens, the Internet God of Wealth may be someone else...
Wu Yunjun postponed the meeting with Mr. Fang, but he did not cancel the internal meeting on the 17th. There is only one focus of discussion before him. He previously gave Yixin a valuation of 2 million US dollars. How should he estimate it now?
……
The wave of red envelopes on mobile phones did not end with the end of the Spring Festival Gala.
Red envelope shaking and grabbing red envelopes are gone, and Yixin has opened the function of "sending red envelopes". Red envelopes for New Year's greetings and Valentine's Day, I click to open 6.66 yuan, you click to open 0.01 yuan, and he clicks to open 88 yuan. Everyone has fun.
The Spring Festival Gala on TV is still replayed habitually during the day. Although there is no real-time interaction, it still has a good effect in promoting the brand.
From New Year's Eve, Yixin's internal user registration data curve suddenly rose. By the day of the first day of the new year, although the curve fell back, it was still far beyond normal.
At the same time, CCTV announced the ratings of this year's Spring Festival Gala. Compared with 09% in 34.82, 08% in 32.29, and 07% in 30.88, this year's is 40.52%, which is the best in recent years.
It is generally believed that this year's Spring Festival Gala has made great changes to be more suitable for young audiences.
The Spring Festival Gala is being replayed, red envelopes are being distributed, advertisements are being smashed, and users are increasing... Penguin's general office meeting is scheduled for the second day of the Lunar New Year, and all the executives who have a rare break for the New Year to travel are rushing back, more in their hearts The other party's general resentment.
Can't you not choose the holidays!
However, I have to admit that the effect of this festival is awesome!
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, February 2th, at 15:[-] a.m., the Penguin headquarters held a general office meeting, and everyone was present.
President Liu Chiping read a few statistics at the beginning, all of which were disclosed by CCTV.
40.52% ratings.
During the four and a half hours of the Spring Festival Gala, the total number of Yixin "Shake" interactions reached 4 billion, with a peak of 106 million per minute.
Just horrible!
"How do you feel?" Liu Chiping asked after talking about the data.
"With such a large amount of data to process, it's no wonder that Yike needs to build multi-city access clusters. Their technical strength is very solid, which is actually somewhat overlooked by the outside world." Senior Vice President Lu Shan has a technical background and talks naturally to their own observations and news.
The head of the company, Ma Huateng, often speaks behind the scenes in such meetings, and suddenly said: "Yike has invested a lot in cloud computing, and we are going to start this one."
When Yike claimed to be doing cloud computing before, Baidu and Penguin both had negative opinions, such as "old wine in new bottles" and "cloud computing is too advanced".
Therefore, Baidu and Penguin have not invested in this area in the past two years, but Ali has been silently recruiting people.
Two of the four YBAT giants do it, and two don't. Now it seems that this topic will come to an end.
Yike is able to process such a large amount of data this time, and there must be the help of cloud computing behind it.
The meeting room was quiet for a while, and everyone had the same feeling in their hearts. The start of cloud computing was a bit slow, and I don't know if we can catch up.
"Yixin did not publish its data. The disclosure from CCTV seems scary, but in fact..." Executive Vice President Ren Yuxi took out his mobile phone and quickly shook it a few times. "The number of users who actually drive this data may not be that large. Shake it casually for many times, and the data inside must have shrunk and then shrunk.”
Liu Shengyi, a member of the general office, also nodded and said: "Yes, CCTV must have released good-looking data from Canada. After all, the number of users of Android phones in China is limited, and not everyone is in front of the TV. Not everyone is interested in it, but ... it's really good branding."
Some marketing activities are only temporary, but Yike’s red envelopes to Yixin this time will obviously have a long-term impact.
It picked a time period with the most concentrated audience in the country, and assisted in large-scale media reports. In addition, it already had a certain user base, and the brand image was established.
"We will also introduce the function of sending red envelopes to QQ and Letters." Liu Chiping said with certainty, "Even if it doesn't have such a big impact, we have to neutralize the impact of Yixin."
Penguin pushed the red envelope again, which was obviously two beats late. Needless to say, it is pursuing a brand image, but it is only hoping to offset part of the impact from Yike.
Yi Ke was the first to send red envelopes, and it was in the Spring Festival Gala, and then there was a combination boxing. In this case, Penguin was the second to issue red envelopes. Do the public think of QQ and letters when they mention mobile phones to send red envelopes?
Everyone will be deeply impressed by Yike mobile phone and Yixin software, which is the effect of brand promotion.
"On the way here, I saw a mobile phone store has put up a banner." Xu Chenye, one of the five tigers, smiled helplessly, "Guess what it says?"
At this time, he was not in the mood to whet his appetite, and he asked himself and answered, "Here sells mobile phones that can give out red envelopes!"
Ma Huateng sighed: "This is a marketing campaign that benefits the entire system."
A mobile phone that can send red envelopes!
The Symbian system can also be released, but once you compare the operation with the Android system, you will know the gap. What's more, users can experience other gaps when they go to the store to try it out.
If the Symbian system is OK, Nokia will not announce that it will cooperate with Microsoft to increase the WP system.
One family spends money, several families benefit, and in the end it can feed back to Yixin. Such an ecosystem...
When Ma Huateng thought about it carefully, he felt heavy and his scalp was numb. Since Fang Zhuo returned to China last year, the establishment and advancement of Yike's system have been accelerating. Why did he go back to China to toss!
"Yike launched a sneak attack. It will take time for our technical department to return to work. The function of sending red envelopes will take at least a week." Lu Shan frowned. , it can be used again during the Lantern Festival.”
Liu Chiping also frowned and said: "There is no other way, let everyone come back quickly, this time is different, thank you for your hard work."
This time is different, this time is not even a continuation of the Hippo incident last time, but a greater assault on the communication field.
As the president, Liu Chiping is still more concerned about the company's stock price this time, and continued: "Xiangjiang will open on the 17th, this time...see the situation, if it is too late, we can temporarily suspend trading, and then let QQ and Letters launch the red envelope function before resuming trading. "
Secondary market sentiment is relatively easy to be driven.
In the past, it was fine if the opponent was weak, but now it's a battle between giants, and Yi Ke's performance this time was perfect. Liu Chiping was worried about the chain reaction.
"The 17th is definitely going to fall. If the market is suspended as soon as it falls, will the market confidence be even less?" Xu Chenye is not in favor of this countermeasure.
Other members of the general office discussed a few words, and most of them agreed to temporarily suspend the trading. Anyway, the reason is easy to find. Once they have similar functions in their own homes, the mood will be relieved.
Ma Huateng made the final decision: "Looking at the specific situation on the 17th, if the impact is really too great, our company structure adjustment will follow the trend."
It is reasonable and reasonable to temporarily suspend trading due to the adjustment of the company's structure.
The meeting atmosphere in the office was a bit sluggish, and the company was forced to this point, which really made people feel complicated.
From hardware to software, Yike shapes the hardware foundation of the mobile Internet with one hand, and picks the communication software track from PC to mobile with the other hand. The power of this combination is too headache.
"We have to face the reality and get through the pain period." Executive Vice President Ren Yuxi said very coldly, "If we don't face the reality, it may not be just a matter of the labor pain period."
Ma Huateng nodded, took over the responsibility of chairing the meeting, and began to ask for specific countermeasures.
Yike is burning money, so it will also burn money in return.
Lantern Festival red envelopes, glutinous rice ball red envelopes, the effect of burning money is bound to be there.
The general office meeting was tense, and the next few days were destined to be turbulent.
However, after another shock and another shock, everyone is almost desensitized.
……
As soon as the Lunar New Year was over, Fang Zhuo got busy in the capital.
The main task of coming to the capital this time is to supervise Yixin and endorse possible mistakes, but the long-prepared technical team did not disappoint. Except for the network fluctuation at 11 o'clock on New Year's Eve, it was almost perfect.
This needs to praise the technical team headed by Wang Jian.
The second task is to run for the honor of Liang Mengsong and others. It went smoothly a year ago, and will continue to move forward in the next year.
After that, after the Chinese New Year, everyone has arrived in the capital. Many leaders and retired leaders who have known and dealt with it are also beneficial to come to pay New Year’s greetings and chat. The semiconductor field is the most involved.
From the busy first day to the third day, Fang Zhuo basically met everyone he wanted to see. Naturally, he couldn't go empty-handed during the Chinese New Year, but it wasn't convenient for him to give anything extra, so he only brought some special products.
For example, the tea from the hometown of Lin’an, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the hometown of Anhui Province, and the mobile phone that can send red envelopes from the hometown of Shencheng.
Overall, the visit was very successful.
It's the fourth day of the lunar new year, which is the opening of the Xiangjiang market on the 17th. Many people are gearing up/waiting anxiously for this day.
really!
Not in vain gearing up/worried!
In a sense, both sentiments were fulfilled!
Penguin shares plummeted 12.3% on the first day of opening!
The market value has evaporated by 36.29 billion US dollars!
Equivalent to 282 billion Hong Kong dollars!
The largest single-day drop since listing!
It even surpassed the sharp drop during the 08 financial crisis!
His face turned ashen, and his face was ashen, and he ran to tell everyone, smiling!
Wang Xing, the president of Weibo, released the news with a smile on his face: traffic base, if you are brave enough, come here!Yi Ke is really here this time!I think Fang always comes and doesn't want to leave!
In the evening, Penguin issued a temporary suspension announcement, announcing a major adjustment to the company's structure.
Wang Xing commented on the announcement in a timely manner: I feel like I am watching a basketball game. Yi Ke scored consecutive goals and beat the Penguins so that the coach called a timeout. The question is, what should I do after the timeout?Do you also give out red envelopes?
People from Penguin will not reply to Wang Xing, and more comments and interactions are just for fun.
This kind of amusement was a little too much, and it still angered Penguin executive Liu Shengyi. Of course, he would not show up on Sina Weibo, but spoke on his own Penguin Weibo.
"If you don't know, you may think that Weibo sent out red envelopes during the Spring Festival Gala. Mr. Wang Xingwang feels too good about himself, right? Have you found a profit point for Sina Weibo? Can it be profitable? Care more about your Weibo Let's go!" Liu Shengyi yelled angrily.
"Then my Weibo is better than yours?" Wang Xing disagreed.
"Can it be profitable?" Liu Shengyi simplified the complexity.
"Better than you." Wang Xing said more simply.
The two fought each other across the air, and they responded quickly. At this moment, Sina Weibo and Penguin Weibo have established a bridge of communication.
……
The penguin plummeted, and the industry mostly watched the excitement.
At the Unicom headquarters the next day, a group of executives were discussing this matter before Mr. Fang came. Yike made a shocking move. Penguin really had a headache this time. If Yixin continues this momentum of development, mobile The king of communication in the Internet age is not necessarily someone.
"Shhh, it's fine to say that yourself, but don't say that when the boss comes." Wu Yunjun, the vice president who presided over the meeting, reminded the executives.
"That's that, cough, we have to give a fair and reasonable bid." Huo Kaixiang, the vice president of business, nodded.
Today is a meeting of bidding and counter-offering, which cannot help the other party grow up.
It was close to nine o'clock, and Fang Zhuo, the head of Yike, and his team arrived at the conference room.
Just after the secretary opened the door, Wu Yunjun, vice president of China Unicom, got up first and immediately applauded.
In an instant, there was exceptionally warm applause in the conference room.
"Congratulations to Mr. Fang, congratulations to Yike, and congratulations to Yixin." Wu Yunjun laughed loudly, "This Spring Festival Gala marketing is really a big success!"
Fang Zhuo waved his hands with a smile, and the secretary and others behind him put the unfinished special products on the conference table.
He waited until the applause was over and laughed, "Same joy, same joy. I say this on other occasions as a courtesy, but here it is not polite at all. We are all family."
There were echoes and laughter in the meeting room, and Mr. Fang had a very good attitude.
"The response to the Spring Festival Gala this time was unexpectedly good." Fang Zhuo sighed after sitting down, "I went to CCTV for a drink on the first night of the new year, and a group of people were very drunk. Tsk, 106 billion interactions, every The peak value of 7.5 million times per minute is unprecedented, unprecedented!"
The activity data is quite amazing.
Fang Zhuo is different from others, and he also has vague comparisons with similar activities.
For example, Penguin once used WeChat to do activities in the Spring Festival Gala. The interaction volume and peak value are definitely stronger, but not too much. Regarding the more important data, 800 million users of WeChat participated in the Spring Festival to grab red envelopes. The announcement and subsequent announcements have the effect that it looks like 8000 million people are scrambling.
WeChat has a wider user base and hardware base in 14 years, but the ratings are not as good as it is now, the total amount of red envelopes is not as good as this year, and Alibaba took the lead in launching electronic red envelopes... However, it is more for the purpose of electronic payment.
Comparing the two, the effect of Yi Xin's combination boxing is quite satisfactory.
"Mr. Fang, Yixin has established a brand this time, which is really admirable." Huo Kaixiang, the vice president of business, was full of admiration.
Fang Zhuo smiled, nodded, and went straight to the point: "So, today we can communicate easily, and Yixin's valuation is easy to estimate. Mr. Wu, what do you think of this valuation?"
Wu Yunjun didn't expect Mr. Fang to talk about this when he came up. He felt that the atmosphere of the scene was not well prepared.
There was a moment of silence in the conference room.
Huo Kaixiang saw that the BOSS was silent, so he was the first to help out: "Mr. Fang, Yixin has a very good prospect. Our China Unicom is willing to invest at a valuation of 3 million US dollars."
Hearing this, Fang Zhuo looked at Huo Kaixiang, smiled and stretched out his hand, "Boss Huo, come here, come here."
Huo Kaixiang was stunned, got up subconsciously and then stopped, a little hesitant in his heart, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Fang would never hit himself, right?
I heard he has a bad temper.
"Mr. Huo, come here." Fang Zhuo urged again.
Huo Kaixiang stabilized his emotions, and walked to the head of Yike under everyone's gaze.
Fang Zhuo didn't hit anyone, he just stood up, stretched out his hand to shake Huo Kaixiang's hand, then glanced at the conference room, and pointed to the gift he brought: "I won't talk about it today, I'll go back first, everyone will share a share of the gift, New Year's Eve hapiness."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left.
Wu Yunjun understood Mr. Fang's meaning, stood up helplessly and said, "Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang, what are you doing? Isn't the price all about talking, just now you were talking about a family."
"I've already entered the door, but Mr. Huo pushed me out abruptly." The smile on Fang Zhuo's face disappeared at this moment, "It's because two families can't talk about each other!"
Huo Kaixiang said innocently: "Mr. Fang, I am..."
Seeing that he still wanted to talk, Fang Zhuo's voice became serious: "If you use 3 million to bluff people, is it easy to bully people when you think I am Fang Zhuo?"
Huo Kaixiang is completely innocent, who dares to bully you Mr. Fang... There must be a red face and a bad face...
"It's Chinese New Year, Mr. Fang, don't be angry. Mr. Huo just doesn't know what to say. He always likes to be silly." Wu Yunjun took Mr. Fang's arm and persuaded him, "Sit down and have a cup of tea to calm down, oops , today is a happy day, the penguins are all suspended, let’s have a good talk.”
Fang Zhuo struggled for his arm, but he couldn't get it out, so he had no choice but to refuse and sit down.
Wu Yunjun didn't sit down until he saw him sitting down, and then he was kicked out by Mr. Fang again...
He understood Mr. Fang's angry face and pretended to be reserved, but he really regretted it, why didn't he insist on promoting investment...
