I am reborn as a fashionista

Chapter 550 Make Money Again
In a newly decorated office with minimalist style, Wei Tao sits on a sofa chair in the corner outside the round table. From this position, he can clearly see the slides on the projection screen. The PPT made by professionals is concise and clear, and some technical terms, Now he can also understand.

In terms of mobile phones, there must be many difficulties. Rebs and his team are also good enough, just like the model of the entire Xiaomi Technology in Wei Tao's memory, a little earlier, but the time node is not advanced. Within a few months, from There is no deviation from the team to the idea to the product.

System, software, object, the three cores, step by step, complement each other, to break the surface.

Looking at the members of the technical team with terrifying titles, Wei Tao has been very low-key since the meeting, and has given enough respect to everyone. At the beginning of the meeting, he sat with Liu Qin On the sofa chair, drinking tea, listening to the explanation and discussion, even when asked, Liu Qin would talk about his own thoughts, but he completely waved his hand and refused.

During the whole day of the meeting, I ordered takeaway box lunches for meals. The meeting didn’t end until 10:30 in the evening. I didn’t want to eat. Several people were responsible for a share, so I had to go back and continue to work on my part of the technology. The members of the team continued to work overtime to tackle key problems, and put aside such small things as eating.

Wei Tao did not show any impatience. On the contrary, he found it very interesting. The entrepreneurial team with core competitiveness and dreams is full of courage and determination to conquer the world. It is full of vigor and vitality, which makes people unconsciously immersed in the whole discussion Among them, the passage of time is ignored.

Let Zhu Xichun and Lu Jiang prepare some overtime meals, coffee, and drinks in advance, and he can do things like logistics.

Rebs, Liu Qin, and Wei Tao found a food stall. The three of them did not look like billionaires at all. They sat on plastic chairs, ate the barbecue and spicy fried seafood at the food stall, and drank cold beer. Yanjing is still very lively.

Regarding the future, Rebs has his own ideas. He respects his partners, but it does not mean that investors can interfere too much in his career in front of him. Tao has known him for a while, and the image of the two of them as investors is relatively clear, and they don't have the habit of pointing fingers.

When Liu Qin showed that I was only in charge of investment and didn't talk about other things, Wei Tao even lit a cigarette and opened a bottle of wine over there, and simply threw a blank look at him, never thinking about being in this place with Rebs. Thoughts for any discussion on the topic.

Just kidding, you can earn money for us honestly.

One thing is clear in my heart. In Rebs's big proposition this time, the 20% shareholding ratio should be diluted slowly. Every follow-up follow-up, individual investors are not his option, and he also We do not want informal large-scale investment institutions to enter the market.

Ambitious, the expectation and vision for the future have absolute strategic goals, but now he will not say it easily, no longer the whole project or the creative stage, willing to share more with others, willing to let more people know about himself ideas, want to get more recognition.

After Wei Tao clarified this matter, he basically made it clear what he should do. The most appropriate way for him to participate in the next official financing is not to participate. If he only participates once, the impact will not be great. It is a financing with a valuation of 2.5 million US dollars. It seems that it has raised 4100 million US dollars. The proportion is less than 17%. The 20% I hold needs to be diluted by a small part. This round needs to keep my own undiluted The amount invested was much less than what Wei Tao expected to invest in his heart. It was a bit regretful, but he was also satisfied.

Soon he finalized his next actions, and in order to cater to Rebs’ true inner thoughts, I will give up this round and vote for this round, and I will not participate in the next one. Rebs still has something to do. Proper, will not self-destruct the Great Wall to use some despicable means to maliciously dilute shareholders' shares.

After this round, Xiaomi at that time should have also entered the state of galloping on the highway, and he had no chance to follow him. Let alone whether he was willing to spend so much money to invest, those big capital investment banks entered the market and snatched How could there be a small capital opportunity for the little shares that Rebs took out.

After having expectations in his heart, Wei Tao stopped being entangled, his emotions stabilized, and he stopped thinking wildly. After all, when he thought about how huge the business empire Rebs would create in the future, if he could completely reject greed, he would get more in the early stage. That's impossible at all, Wei Tao feels that he is amazing enough now to be able to resist the temptation.

While eating and drinking, he thought about what is his magic weapon to resist all of this, maybe it is his own caution, he does not want to destroy the process of history, he does not want to distort the entire development process, so he has never wanted to destroy the original successful subject, It is because of this awareness that he can calmly accept everything in front of him.

After one sentence was not discussed, one sentence was not discussed about the real start of financing, but they knew everything, and each other had the answer in their hearts.

They were talking about the company's prospects all day and all night, about the company's technology, and about the project itself, but let Liu Qin and Wei Tao know one thing, which has nothing to do with you.

When I got back to the hotel, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and I looked at the 'self-talking' message that was sent from my mobile phone as usual. A woman who knows how to use mastery, you can say that she is too shrewd and knows what she wants, but never say that she is too utilitarian.

A strong woman is at least worthy of respect.

In the previous message, the other party described how difficult it was in Yanjing Beipiao, auditioning in the afternoon, participating in catwalk activities in the evening, being so tired that his feet were swollen, and so on.

"I was in a certain room in a certain hotel. I drank too much and felt a little uncomfortable."

Less than 3 minutes after the message was sent, a reply came: "Then drink some honey water and take care of yourself."

"I want you to take care of me." I also drank a little wine, and I didn't want to control my body when I was outside. At the same time, I also finalized the strategic decision of Xiaomi's own investment. It's not accurate, anyway, the emotions are quite complicated, and I can't tell what kind of mood it is.

The message was sent immediately, without any regrets, the other party replied with a message after a few minutes: "Yeah."

Ten minutes later, there was a knock on the door.

Wei Tao took a bath, drank some hot water, and ate some fruit. Just as he felt sleepy, the door was knocked and he opened the door. 'Big Baby' was already standing at the door. It could be seen that he was dressed up again. one time.

Since you feel that the struggle is hard, then let you not need to work hard.

Pulling it closer to the room, without any further words, from the sending of the message to the arrival of the person, everything is unspoken, they are all adults, and I know exactly what it means.

When I come, I am ready for everything.

It's daylight, it's daylight, the sun is up...

"It's okay, don't disturb me, sleep."

I sent a message to Lu Jiang at [-] o'clock, and the phone was turned off immediately. She turned around and put her arms around her completely limp body, and fell asleep. Flashing through the pictures of her on some large stages and red carpets in the future, including those refined pictures on the Internet, this immersive experience cannot be truly brought to you by ordinary people, no matter how beautiful they are.

Regret after the impulse?It doesn’t exist, although it’s not the perfect image in the photos and videos, but people know how to play and cooperate with you, so they have fun, which is very important.

Worried about not getting rid of it?Not to mention that Wei Tao’s impulse is not aimless. Look at things like Xiaomi, Duowan, Xiaonei, and Eleme. He dare not touch and change them at will, for fear that it will affect him lying at home to collect rice, but there are some things. , but I want to play with it without worrying about it being affected.

Any acclimatization or other factors are out of his consideration, and it doesn't matter if he loses money.

After sleeping until evening, after waking up, turn on the phone, and call Lu Jiang first to ask him what's the matter.

Lu Jiang only mentioned Songjiang's matter, it was nothing serious, and he asked for instructions on a daily basis.

Here Mr. Lei called to make an appointment at noon, and when he learned that Wei Tao was sleeping, he said he was fine.

He called Rebs back first, didn't mention work, only talked about his upcoming itinerary, and showed his playful image, in this way, he gave Rebs another reassurance.

Drinking at the food stall last night, Liu Qin and he had already reassured Rebs, and both of them knew that if they had trouble with Rebs, the future of making money together would be affected, and they did not manage and The ability to lead the company to take off, we are good at planning, not necessarily good at making decisions, and we do not necessarily know how to be a real entrepreneur at the helm.

One reassurance pill was not enough, Wei Tao ate another one, and gave him a high hat: "I don't want to meddle, if Mr. Lei, you need a logistics supervisor, then I can join in the fun, otherwise I will Waiting for you to take me off."

"That's fine, I'm short of a logistics director, why don't you come?"

"Don't make trouble, I will ask Da Wang and Xiao Wang from Brother Media to discuss something with them."

This is another reassurance. I am not just doing things, but cooperating with you. You are doing it. I only support you when you first need funds to realize dreams that others think are impossible. Now your main creative team has If I am confident that the three core industries can gradually open up the market and occupy the market, I will retire and don't bother.

The king does not see the king.

When Rebs was afraid of the two, it was precisely his unspeakable praise for them. If you are not a person who can make me feel threatened, so what if you stay in the project, let you How about more participation, how about giving you some permissions?

.....................

A private club, where wine tasting and cigar smoking is not open to the public, and the member is directly treated. Only when I got closer did I realize that the red brick wall of the house has been carefully treated.

Seeing Wei Tao appearing with Yang Ying, the Wang brothers understood.

"There's no need to find someone else, let's talk about business today."

Knowing that he would save himself, he went to find a female companion separately. Wei Tao stopped the two brothers in advance, and saw that he had no interest in drinking. He just smoked cigars, prepared some coffee, and asked them to prepare a meal here.

Xiao Wang is always a veteran of the rivers and lakes, Wei Tao does not drink, he motioned to Yang Ying, and before the other party expressed his opinion, Wei Tao said first: "No drinking, wait for me to recover, last night I drank with Mr. Lei until dawn .”

This is guarding, in addition to making it clear that this is the artist I want to promote, I also directly revealed to the two brothers that she is the person who sleeps on the pillow next to me.

Yang Ying also felt Wei Tao's dominance. At this age, she was irresistible to such a domineering president. Plus yesterday, oh no, it was this morning's performance, she felt very sweet, this kind of no longer It’s a good feeling of being adrift. Most of the disappointment of wanting to prove that you have worked hard but failed to get a good opportunity and the coldness of the environment and the market have dissipated.

She wants to know, is her choice right or wrong?It doesn't seem to be that important anymore. Her performance in the morning has already made her not mind whether she has to pay for her efforts, because that is not called giving. The current young people care more about each other's feelings. I have also got it. Ours The relationship is two-way, and it is impossible to talk about who pays and who suffers.

"I want to make a variety show, and I can be responsible for all the investment. The two specific Wang Bosses are more knowledgeable than me. They help contact the TV station and help form a team. We cooperate."

It doesn't matter whether Wei Tao comes up with ideas. The variety shows of this season have not yet opened a new era, and they are still dominated by comprehensive interviews about life. As for whether variety shows make money, if you don't consider the issue of investment, it seems that other Don't even think about it, it's a big deal to hit the stars, even if it's an old-fashioned variety show, the two presidents Wang still have the confidence to invite some big stars, that's all.

Xiao Wang always looked at 'big baby': "Wei always wants Miss Yang to be the host?"

Wei Tao didn't go to be affectionate with the women around him, let alone the arrogance that I want to protect you and support you, so he didn't look at her at all, but focused on chatting with the two presidents Wang. Yang Ying's eyes were full of little stars.

"Outdoor reality show." Wei Tao didn't let the two of them guess, and directly took out the idea of ​​the running man. It will take more than a year to get the specific stick, more than a year in advance, and there is no such thing as trademark registration Yes, whoever makes this brand first will belong to him. Don't say that some of us have had similar ideas, it will be considered as an afterthought.

It is novel, and it is enough to arouse the gluttons of the two Mr. Wang. There are uncertainties in all new things. No matter how attractive things are, there will be investment risks. But now these uncertainties have become irrelevant. As long as there is no investment risk, even if the program fails, what loss does it have for us?Even if there is a little bit of deduction for failure on the artist, the two bosses don't really care about it.

There is no need to hesitate to choose the era of innovation and the deduction of points for failure, whichever is more important.

"One female resident guest is her, and the rest are male guests. After that, there can be flying female guests, who come out once or twice. The content team of the program is the key. They will make good content with the proposition, and play with the script. , to play with a sense of reality; to play with vague scripts, to ensure safety and fun. The most important thing left is the choice of other resident guests, I will not participate, and I will not comment." Wei Tao is used to not lacking in circles , Even if you play some twists and turns that you know and I know, it's like Rebs. They have a certain understanding of each other, and when they get to the point where they understand each other, everyone takes a step back from each other to avoid embarrassment.

For the rest, he will say it directly, and will not reserve space for retreat. I will fully invest, and I will share the profits with you. I will give you a lot of permissions. It can be said that except for creativity and a few hardware requirements In addition, I only pushed a resident guest out, not to mention Brother Media, any person or company in China who is capable of doing this, would raise both hands and feet to welcome Mr. Wei's investment.

Glancing at the woman next to her who couldn't hide her joy, Wei Tao said again: "Be real, don't pretend, be brave, you can have a woman's delicacy, but in this kind of show, what is needed is not a princess, but a pretty girl." A warrior who can be a princess but brave enough to be a warrior to slay a dragon. If the program needs to laugh disregarding the image, distort the expression, gobble up food, some jokes and games that damage the image, if you think this It’s an opportunity, so be more real. I believe that your persistence and courage are not lacking. What kind of N model, that image is completely thrown away. In the show, hair is tied up, a certain degree of plain makeup, sportswear and jeans, If you can show the bravery of a female man in the image of an ordinary person, and let people put words such as beautiful and beautiful on you, you are considered successful."

The two Presidents Wang also have pictures in their minds. Once the word "truth" is used and presented to this beautiful little girl, the choice and use of the other male guests will determine that the program will not only be played by the planning team The most important factor outside of content arrangement.

"In addition, the two elder brothers help, a vase supporting role in a big-produced movie, a suitable female second or third female in a good scripted TV series, don't worry, before that, find a professional team to help her redesign, find A professional teacher taught her to act. If she really doesn’t have any talent and room for improvement, she should be a famous fashion star, walk the red carpet, participate in events, and be a temporary host..."

Mrs. Wang said, "I've seen people who praise female artists, but I've never seen such ones. What kind of magic did this girl use to make Mr. Wei spend so much money to support her? It seems that he is asking himself and his brother for help. In fact, regardless of whether it is owed favors or even with the previous investment, it is Brother Media who actually took advantage of it. He did this to flatter this girl. How expensive is it?
Mr. Wang's level is different from that of his younger brother, and his focus is farther away: "It's not a problem, Mr. Wei. I heard that Softbank is already impatient on the Xiaonei website."

Rebs didn't pay attention yesterday, because he was all focused on his own industry, Liu Qin didn't know it at all, Mr. Wang mentioned something today, Wei Tao couldn't bear it, some information doesn't need to be called As a secret, I now have enough strength to support the so-called secret.

The point is, it won't be able to hide immediately, and I don't intend to hide it anymore.Except for Guan Jinyue and other operators, no one knew about the things behind this incident. It was an unintentional intervention. Wei Tao had been secretly entertaining himself for several months. He didn't share it with others because it hadn't really formed value. Now someone took the initiative When I mentioned it, I ticked off the bragging worm in my heart, and I don’t mind sharing it with others now, because everything has been settled, and only the other party knows whether it’s a dumb loss or if we all get rich together.

"I want to order a cherry blossom meal, and let's drink some sake."

Seeing Wei Tao's sudden interest, Mr. Xiao Wang asked for arrangements, while Mr. Wang inadvertently glanced at the big baby. He had no other thoughts, but thought that this woman was very powerful. It seemed that Mr. Wei was very satisfied. Knowing that she grew up in the country of cherry blossoms, she tends to take care of her taste when eating.

Yang Ying herself was the same, full of joy, she no longer deliberately suppressed it at the moment, looked at Wei Tao with eyes full of love, how could such a man not be liked by women.

Wei Tao is used to being an old man when there is a woman by his side, relying entirely on others to serve him. The service staff next to him helped the two bosses prepare tableware and ingredients. Here, Yang Ying began to prepare everything for Wei Tao, trying his best for him. Mustard was the main dipping sauce, and he didn't start the dinner with a piece of conch until he nodded in satisfaction.

I thought I would talk about the new variety show and the resources I needed for myself, but it turned out not at all.

Just now she felt that Wei Tao didn't leave any room, in case the other party refused.

When Mr. Wang said that everything was fine, she became restless again. Is it that simple?This made her suddenly realize that there seemed to be some things that she might not be able to find with all her efforts. In the eyes of some people, they were just a matter of waving hands.

This is the first time that she has a more real understanding of the power brought by money, and has a desire for the superior people and life.

She began to yearn for it, and the longing buried in her heart was rapidly taking root and sprouting at this moment, quickly becoming the main part of her body.

When the three of them really chatted, she realized why she didn't talk about things related to her, because it wasn't important.

Among the chat topics, those things are not important, even variety shows, movies, TV series, all of a sudden become leftovers on the table, if you want to 'clean', then it is still valuable, if you don't want to, Going into the trash can is its only end.

After drinking two small cups of sake, Wei Tao didn't hold back. Faced with Mr. Wang's curiosity, he also saw Mr. Wang who didn't realize that his brother's question had caused a big topic just now, and said directly: "Everyone knows that I am lucky. Well, I think so too. I invested in a small company before, and they made a game called Happy Farm..."

What the hell!

I rub!

Mr. Wang was stunned, and immediately felt that Mr. Wei was lucky.

President Da Wang said, it has nothing to do with luck at all, but the long-term prospect of the investment of Happy Farm integrated into the Xiaonei network.

The big baby is just simply surprised. She knows that game and has played it before. Too many people around her have fallen into the pit, men, women, and children, and many parents, uncles, and aunts have fallen into the pit to play this game. , and is in a very crazy state.

It is said that Wei Tao's investment in 'Xiaonei.com' will eventually be vacated by Softbank and Chen Zhou. This is indeed the case, with only 9% of the shares. With that little share, once the two parties cooperate, he will definitely get something out of his bag.

It’s different now, Xiaonei.com is about to be renamed, and it has developed rapidly in the past six months from being limited to the campus. As a great contributor to Happy Farm, it’s conceivable how much value it occupies, and Wei Tao’s words mean that he is The major shareholders of Happy Farm, those small companies started by young people, in order to get investment, they had to give up most of their shares at the beginning. They will feel wronged when they succeed. In fact, the failure rate is much higher than the success. A hundred times the ratio, how much ratio you give to the investor is the difference between the benevolent and the wise.

With Wei Tao holding this big weapon, and looking at his relationship with Xiaonei, who dares to kick him away?

"No, hasn't Penguin started to imitate the gourd? Don't they have successors who are not afraid to imitate, or do they have follow-up projects that can increase user stickiness to compete with Penguin's user base?"

Mr. Da Wang's pupils dilated suddenly, and he looked at Wei Tao in surprise.

Wei Tao also nodded along with the trend: "It was finalized years ago, and the contract after the next year, but Penguin imitated it. In order to create value, and to distribute the distress that I took advantage of again to others, Xiaonei will soon change its name. , and conduct a financing, this time the valuation will have a leap, and my shareholding ratio will be diluted, but as a shareholder of Happy Farm Production Company, I have asked someone to estimate the value of Happy Farm on Xiaonei. , the proportion of the shares held together will be higher than before, and at the same time, I will be given some extra cash. To make a publicity campaign to defeat Penguin's plagiarism, I can take advantage of Penguin's momentum, after all , No one wants their rear to be unstable before going out."

It's a secret, but it's a secret that was only known a few days in advance. The two presidents raised their glasses to toast. They really didn't know what to say except for the word "beautiful". In the past six months, due to the good development and the user channels opened by some members of Happy Farm, there have been rumors in the outside world that the refinancing is directly aimed at 20 billion.

And Wei Tao made a lot of money.No wonder they are so stubborn, they came up and directly shouted to invest in a new program to win newcomers. If you have money, you can be so willful. Using money makes it easier to win newcomers. Even if this girl is not a material, as long as you rely on Wei Tao It is not difficult for a big tree to mix with a well-known female star. The resources obtained by spending money are more affordable and direct than the opportunities obtained by favors.
