Chapter 83 The CEO of Weishi's Douyin Live Stream

The following morning, Lu Jie arrived at the gate of Xiamen University three minutes ahead of schedule, and got out of the car one after the other, just as Lei Jun was about to leave.

"Little Lu!" Leibusi waved and greeted his little brother with great joy.

Lu Jie, walking towards him, warmly shook his hand, "President Lei! It's been a while, you look much better!"

"Haha, cell phone sales have been pretty good lately, so a good mood naturally makes you look good too~" Lei Jun is always very easygoing when speaking to people he approves of.

He took the selfie stick from his assistant and smiled at Lu Jie, who looked somewhat puzzled. "I've asked the school, and today's visit won't involve any sensitive technologies, so I'm going to livestream the whole thing on Douyin."

"Hey, wait! Why don't you come to Weishi Live? We have live streaming on Weishi too!" Lu Jie couldn't help but exclaim.

He pointed at himself and laughed, "Me, the president of Weishi! Bro, is it appropriate for you to use my competitor's software for a live stream right in front of me?"

""

"Haha, who told you that not many people use Weishi~" Lei Bus knew very well that Lu Jie didn't care much about Weishi, so he made this kind of joke with him.

Sure enough, Lu Jie closed his eyes and clutched his heart. "President Lei, those words are so hurtful! Ouch—"

"Alright, alright, stop acting~" Lei Jun patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "I haven't even started the live stream yet."

The people around the two company bosses knew each other well. They greeted each other with laughter and chatter, and then clearly separated and followed behind their respective bosses.

"Hello, Principal Zhang, it's a pleasure to have you personally greet me." Resis shook hands with Principal Zhang of Ludao Fuxue School with familiarity.

Then, Lu Jie was introduced first: "This is my younger brother Lu Jie, the founder of Lingjie Capital, who has made significant investments in new energy and emerging technology fields."

Principal Zhang had done his homework and immediately greeted Lu Jie, this incredibly young billionaire, with great enthusiasm.

"I've heard so much about you, Mr. Lu. You are a role model for college students who have successfully started their own businesses. I hope you will have the opportunity to give us your guidance and come to Xiamen University to give a speech."

Lu Jie responded with a gentle smile, but declined, saying, "I'm still so young, no way~ Public speaking is something that needs an experienced senior like Mr. Lei to do. I'm still learning."

After exchanging pleasantries, everyone transferred to a Coaster bus arranged by the university and entered Xiamen University's Xiang'an campus.

After getting on the bus, Lei Jun started a live stream, introducing the origins of the Jiageng Innovation Laboratory he was visiting, and also gave a simple explanation of the importance of developing new energy technologies.

Lu Jie watched him speak eloquently and became curious about the reactions in his live stream, so he quietly opened Douyin.

As soon as I opened Douyin, I found myself in the video. I subconsciously looked up at Lei Jun and heard him introducing himself.

Lei Jun deliberately emphasized the words "Douyin" and said, "I've seen some friends asking who this handsome guy is. Xiao Lu, say hello to the viewers in my Douyin live stream."

Lu Jie felt that this guy was sometimes even more childish than himself, but he was also someone who could take a joke. He gave Lei Jun a look of disdain and then smiled and waved generously.

"Hello everyone, I am Lu Jie, President of Tencent Video. I am very grateful to Mr. Lei for allowing me to be featured in our competitor's software."

After saying that, he glared at the two secretaries beside him who were struggling to suppress their laughter, then looked down at his phone and found that the screen was filled with comments like "hahahahaha".

There were also calls to change the host, saying that Lu Jie is more handsome than Lei Jun and that the old man should step aside.

This made Lu Jie feel much better; the masses do have discerning eyes.

I was just about to send Lei Jun a rocket as a reward when I heard his teasing voice, "Little Lu, some viewers asked if Douyin or Weishi is easier to use~"

"Hiss—" Seeing that he had no intention of letting him go, Lu Jie got up and sat down next to him. "To be honest, I think Douyin is the best among the mainstream short video apps right now."

"Am I praising our competitors? In terms of market share, compared to Kuaishou and Douyin, we at Weishi might not even be considered competitors."

"Don't make wild guesses. Mr. Lei is my mentor, and we have a very good relationship."

"I definitely need to get a little revenge on Lei Jun. I'm planning to fly to Shenzhen next week to persuade Pony Ma to get into the smartphone business and steal Xiaomi's thunder."

market!"

Lu Jie replied to a few comments, "Mr. Lei and I are here today to visit the new energy laboratory. Mr. Lei, let's get out of the car and go for a tour!"

"Distinguished leaders and executives, our New Energy Laboratory at Xiamen University is built in partnership with the Tan Kah Kee Innovation Laboratory and serves as a core platform for cutting-edge new energy research and commercialization in Southeast China."

The person in charge of providing the tour was a well-dressed, handsome young man, and unsurprisingly, comments like "So handsome!" popped up in the live chat.

"The laboratory currently focuses on three core areas: electrochemical energy storage, hydrogen energy technology, and solar energy utilization, with a primary focus on power batteries, solid-state batteries, water electrolysis for hydrogen production, and perovskite solar cells."

"—Over the years, the laboratory has been deeply committed to the integration of industry, academia and research, and many of its scientific research achievements have been put into application, forming distinctive research characteristics and advantages in the new energy industry."

After the handsome young man finished his introduction, Lu Jie led the applause, and then they continued to visit some detailed items and listen to explanations.

"Xiao Lu, what do you think of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles?"

Seeing Lei Jun's camera and questions again, Lu Jie thought for a moment and laughed, "Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles? Hmm, I think it's really stupid of Japanese companies to be so stingy with their knowledge."

"Many people may not know that the first company to invest in hydrogen energy research was Toyota of Japan, who registered approximately 1.5 hydrogen fuel cells."

Energy-related patents have created a patent barrier.

"According to the Japanese, with so many patents, if you want to develop hydrogen energy, you'll have to pay me protection money, and I can just lie at home counting my money."

"But as everyone has seen, apart from Toyota stubbornly continuing, other automakers simply won't play along."

.

"This isn't the first time Japan has suffered losses due to its petty nature. Does anyone know about Blu-ray storage technology? Japan had the same idea back then, setting up patent barriers."

"So how many people are still using Blu-ray discs now? Most have switched to more convenient solid-state storage."

Lu Jie spoke eloquently, and Lei Jun occasionally nodded in agreement, resulting in fewer comments in the live stream chat.

Once Lu Jie stopped talking and stopped insulting the Japanese, Lei Jun chuckled and concluded, "Everyone saw how eloquent Lu Jie is, right?"

"That's how he convinced me to invest in his startup—haha, Xiao Lu, netizens want you to start a Douyin live stream too, want to give it a try?"

Lu Jie wasn't angry or annoyed. "It's not impossible. If Zhang Yiming is willing to give me some shares, I'll do the live stream."

"Everyone can also try Weishi. Weishi will be adding new features soon, and I can say with certainty that the new features will be a lot of fun. You can look forward to it."

"Tell me more about it? How can that be? First of all, this is Lei Jun's live stream, and secondly, this is Douyin live stream. How can I promote Weishi on Douyin?"
