After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 85 Research 'Village Evening'

After investing 700 million yuan, Lu Liang did not take any new actions. He left the market to the market and no longer intervened.

It is true that he still has a bottom position, and it is also true that the major shareholder can check the list of circulating shares, but not now, at least until the end of today's trading.

Lu Liang has already shown his intention to be the banker. Now it depends on whether the real banker is willing to contribute. If he just wants him to carry the sedan chair while he hides behind and reaps the fruits of his labor, this is impossible and unrealistic.

Moreover, he only invested less than 700 million yuan, which would definitely not make it to the Dragon and Tiger list. It is also impossible to use his name to write an article.

At this time, Tang Caidie knocked on the door and brought a 2000 million investment plan from Panda Interactive Entertainment.

Wang Xiaocong holds 85% of the shares, with a capital contribution of 1700 million yuan, and Lu Liang holds 15% of the shares, with a capital contribution of 300 million yuan.

Tang Caidie reminded him, "Boss Lu, Boss Wang plans to transfer his 40% stake to Pusi Investment in Yanjing after this follow-up investment."

“Pusi Investment is also his, and it is preparing for Series A financing.”

Lu Liang already knew about this matter in advance, because after the financing, the company no longer belongs to an individual, and Xiao Wang was preparing for the subsequent cashing out at a high price.

It doesn't mean that you should think about running away as soon as you are preparing to raise funds, because this practice is very common, just like you can't put all your eggs in one basket.

After all, you have invested so much money and put in so much effort. If the price is right, you must get your principal back first.

If you don't leave any backup plan and just go down a single path to the end, you can only be called a reckless person, and in the end you will lose everything you have, no matter how much money you have.

"Just transfer the money to him this afternoon."

Lu Liang signed the authorization on the remittance certificate. He looked out the window and saw that the number of employees in the company had increased to 19 and the office area was a bit crowded.

Even Tang Caidie's workstation is only slightly larger than that of ordinary employees. There are no partitions and no privacy at all.

Lu Liang asked: "How long will it take for the renovation of New International to be completed?"

"The construction team gave a deadline of August 8. Although the materials used are of good quality, they still need to be left to ventilate for ten days. We also need to purchase office equipment, desks and chairs. We will probably have to wait until early next month before we can move in."

Tang Caidie paused and said, "Mr. Yang from New International gave us 45 days of rent-free renovation."

When the New International Building was first built, it was designed as a high-end office building, and the normal renovation period was only 15 days of rent-free.

Fifteen days is usually enough to complete the partitions and office planning of the site, but Yang Weifeng still gave it a month and a half.

"Next time you see Mr. Yang, thank him for me and tell him that he is busy lately and cannot come back. I will thank him in person after we move in."

Tang Caidie had just left the office when Chen Jinchun came in with four documents: "Boss Lu, these two are from Luo Juncheng, and these two are from Wen Chao."

One is from Peking University and the other is from Fudan University. It is no exaggeration to say that five or six years ago, they were both the top scorers in the college entrance examination in their respective hometowns.

The pride of being the chosen ones makes them not think that their research reports are worse than others.

So after discussing it, we decided to hand it in together. Only by comparing it can we know whose is better.

“It has to be done by professionals.”

Lu Liang picked up a copy and looked through it, and immediately felt relieved. The front page was neat and clear, unlike Chen Jinchun's research report, which made him guess while reading it.

Chen Jinchun said nothing, she was so angry that her teeth were itching, she could only transform into a fake smiling girl, hehe~ to cover up her embarrassment.

Each research report had more than 10,000 words, and Lu Liang read it from morning to afternoon.

Combining the two people's opinions, he had a basic understanding of the shared bicycle and video industries.

Since ofo was founded in December last year, a total of 12 companies have been born in the country in more than nine months. The top five are Mobike, ofo, Youbike, Kuqi, and Yonganxing.

There are a total of about 5.8 shared bicycles in use, and the top three companies account for more than 68%.

On average, each shared bicycle is ridden 4-8 times a day, mainly during rush hour.

At the entrance of many subway stations in Shanghai, it is even difficult to find a train during rush hour.

The market gap is large and more projects need to be put into operation, but it will have a certain impact on the city's appearance and traffic order.

Shared bicycles can only serve as a traffic interface and cannot survive independently. The final outcome will probably be that they will be sold.

Sell ​​it to Tencent, or to Ali, or to other Internet forces, and empower their products.

If shared bicycles are a new battlefield, then the video industry is a battlefield that has existed since the birth of the Internet.

Major Internet companies have been competing in the fields of long video, short video, live streaming, interactive entertainment and film and television broadcasting for more than ten years, but the winner has yet to be determined.

A short video company called Kuaishou comes into view, followed closely by ByteDance, the company behind Toutiao.

Lu Liang downloaded Kuaishou and planned to experience it for himself, but after watching a few short videos, he looked like he had seen a ghost.

He saw an online daily version of 'Village Evening'.

The video is full of swear words, and the video style is rough. The red and green cotton jackets are very regional, and it seems that the audience in the south is not taken into consideration at all. "It seems that this is also sharing life, but sharing the life in the north."

Lu Liang thought about it and looked up the information of Kuaishou. It was valued at US$8.5 million last year and its Series B financing was led by Sequoia Capital.

As of June this year, the number of registered users of Kuaishou has exceeded 200 million, so he will definitely not be able to intervene.

Before we knew it, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon and the A-share market ended trading for the day.

Stock quotes, 24.08 yuan,
The drop was -0.22%, which basically meant a day's play wasted.

Tomorrow opens.
You can probably know the subsequent direction.

Lu Liang called Chen Jinchun and asked her to call Luo Juncheng and Wen Chao in.

After reading the four research reports, I already have an answer in my mind about the candidate for secretary.

The two looked at Lu Liang anxiously, their faces full of tension, waiting for the final judgment.

"Wen Chao, move over to Assistant Chen's side tomorrow."

There was an empty seat next to Chen Jinchun's workstation, which was reserved by Lu Liang for his secretary.

There were two phones on his desk, one for calling Chen Jinchun and the other for calling his secretary.

The previous two were taken over by Chen Jinchun, and now the other one has also found its final owner.

"Thank you, Mr. Lu. I will continue to work hard." Wen Chao suppressed his excitement and bowed.

"Well, let's go out."

Lu Liang looked out the window and saw Su Wanyu had come over. It was time to start learning foreign languages ​​today.

"Okay, Mr. Lu."

Wen Chao left the office, but Luo Juncheng remained unmoved. He stared at Lu Liang, indignant: "Boss Lu, why? How did I lose?"

In the past ten days or so, he has traveled almost all over the Magic City.

In order to count the number of rides a shared bicycle receives every day, some people would squat at the subway entrance and record the numbers before dawn, from dawn to dusk and into the night.

I haven't had a good night's sleep these days. I'm either conducting research or on the way to conduct research.

He admitted that Wen Chao definitely didn't do as well as he did, but he didn't understand why he still lost.

"Boss Lu, I'll be leaving first."

Wen Chao frowned, words coming to his lips but he didn't speak.

Just now he was also curious about how he won, but now it is self-evident.

It is Lu Liang's freedom to choose whoever he wants. Even if the little rooster points out to him, they have no right to question him.

Due to the special nature of the secretarial position, their main task is to implement Lu Liang's will and they do not need to have too many ideas.

"Well, let's go."

Lu Liang nodded slightly and looked at Luo Juncheng: "Xiao Luo, if you leave now, I can pretend that nothing happened. If you are not satisfied with my decision, you can go to the Finance Department to collect your internship salary now."

"I don't need the salary, but I want to know the reason."

Luo Juncheng made up his mind that he couldn't be Lu Liang's secretary, and he didn't want to waste time in this company.

Lu Liang laughed and said bluntly: "Your market research report is indeed very detailed, but it overlooks the fact that the most important thing in research is objectivity. There are too many personal ideas mixed in."

Kuaishou, Toutiao, and ByteDance are all the results of Luo Juncheng's research, and it was he who made Lu Liang aware of their existence.

Luo Juncheng is a talented person, but he is not suitable to be a secretary.

Lu Liang planned to observe him carefully for a period of time and give him an important position when there was a chance in the future, but it seemed unnecessary now, so he didn't mind answering for him.

"Mr. Lu, thank you."

Luo Juncheng smiled bitterly, obviously knowing that there were too many personal opinions mixed in.

He mainly wanted to show off his unique insights into the industry, but he didn't expect it to backfire.

Lu Liang suddenly stopped him and said in a cold voice: "Go to the finance department to collect your salary. Don't act like a child when you go out to work. The salary is a respect for the results of your labor."

Luo Juncheng remained silent and bowed deeply. He felt a little regretful in his heart and vaguely felt like he had missed something.

"Ask Miss Su in." Lu Liang said no more.
