My Return to Life

Later, Fang Nian and Lu Weiyu went to Baiyun Airport together.

Catch the flight back to Shanghai at four o'clock.

Apart from Neil Shen, there are several other familiar investors in Shencheng, including Lei Jun.

In the past ten days, a lot has happened in the public information system.

In addition to Frontier’s announcement through the media that it will hold the first scientific developer conference and other exciting events, the mobile game industry has been blown up.

One of the most important news is:

At 2 pm on April 30th, Qingchat announced to the public that the number of Qingchat users exceeded 60 million.

As soon as the news was sent out, it immediately detonated the entire domestic public cyberspace.

It even spread to overseas Internet.

For a while, a large number of analysis posts appeared on forums, post bars, and Zhihu, which gradually became popular.

Hmm... At the end of last year, Zhihu opened its website and adopted an invitation-based registration method, inviting 200 seed users.

Among them, "Holding Keys Huaxian Kaitian", who is more active on the Weibo platform, has a large number of fans, and asks questions very frequently, was also invited.

Fang Nian doesn't log in to his account often, so of course he doesn't know it.

It means to refuse by default.

But opted in again in early April.

because……

In mid-to-late March, Zhihu received angel round investment from Frontier Angel.

Frontier Angels invested a total of $900,000.

It's not a big business either. If it wasn't for someone's introduction, Fang Nian wouldn't have paid attention to Zhihu at all, let alone participate in Zhihu's angel round investment.

At that time, it was Gu Yu who replaced Fang Nian.

It just so happens that it will be in the capital...

Qingchat announced that the total number of users exceeds 60 million.

Zhihu immediately had some problems.

Among them, the most frequently asked questions were in the aggressive format of "holding the key" on the Weibo platform.

The question format that is even close to the official recommendation is: How do you view XXX?

End with a question mark.

There is one thing to say, and if you are more strict, you will almost owe a copyright authorization fee to the classmate of "Holding the Key".

Regarding light chat, the most popular question on the Internet is of course:

‘What do you think about the number of users of Qingchat software is more than 60 million, does Qingchat have the potential to become the leader of mobile instant messaging software? '

Although it is almost an internal test invitation system, there are still a lot of answers.

"Thank you for the invitation. It is reported that Qingchat became independent from Xiaomi Technology at the beginning of this year. Judging from the current data, the independence of Qingchat has played a very good role."

"..."

"On April Fool's Day, Qingchat suddenly updated its version. After the sharing function was launched, I predicted that the number of Qingchat users would usher in a skyrocketing increase. Now it is indeed the case. For how to view it, please refer to my previous answer."

"..."

"Thank you for the invitation. I personally think that light chat should have the potential to become a leader, but I think it is more appropriate to invite the key-holders to answer this question."

"..."

Of course, Fang Nian knew about the news, he almost read it yesterday afternoon, but Fang Nian ignored those invitations to answer.

Besides, if Qingchat wants to announce the number of users, Lei Jun will naturally communicate with Fang Nian.

In fact, there will be 70 million users of Qingchat soon.

It's just that it's not good to lie if it doesn't reach this value.

Throughout April, the growth rate of light chat users is obvious.

In addition to the increase of millions of users in an hour after the launch of sharing on April Fool's Day, the average daily user growth in April was about 550,000...

Anyway...

In the eyes of different people, the heavy news of Qingchat obviously has different results.

What some people see is the relationship ecology of light chat.

Some people see the great excitement of the mobile social mobile game industry.

because……

The second big news is:

At two o'clock yesterday afternoon, the Dangkang mobile game platform launched a classic mobile game based on social networking:

Parkour master.

According to the official news, only some large-screen smartphones are supported, and the recommended models are: Mi 1, iPhone 4, Meizu M9, HTC Desire S, Samsung Galaxy 2, etc.

"Parkour Master" has been downloaded more than 1 million copies in just two hours after its release.

Originally, the popularity of this news in the public cyberspace could hardly surpass the 60 million users of Qingchat.

but……

The truth is that magical.

then……

Today, at 10 o'clock in the morning on May Day, a small version update was released under Qingchat, and a new content was added in the "More" option:

game.

Seamlessly open a new embedded page in the form of an external link, linking to the lightweight casual game area of ​​the Dangkang mobile game platform.

Light chat is divided into two categories on the game page.

They are:

Mobile games, mini games.

The display of the mobile game is greyed out, please click on it to express your expectation.

And after clicking on the mini game, you can see hundreds of games.

Very lightweight and casual.

In fact, the games that can be played can basically be divided into categories such as Lianliankan and Tetris.

Although Doudizhu is classified as a small game, it is not yet open and is still in the debugging stage.

but!

Even so, it still sparked heated discussions among netizens.

In the past, everyone only knew that they could play web games on computer webpages, steal food in Qzone and so on.

But this time, Qingchat and Dangkang games completely refreshed the perception of netizens.

Not only can you play games on your mobile phone, but now you don't even need to download them, you can click and play anytime, anywhere.

This……

Who can stand it.

Even Shen Nier, who clearly knew that Fang Nian might use some means to interfere with the mobile game industry to form a trend in advance, couldn't stand it.

Therefore, Shen Nier chose to work on May 1 Labor Day, and flew all the way from Beijing to Shencheng;

And contacted Fang Nian...

…………

On the plane, Lu Weiyu and Fang Nian also chatted about the series of important events that happened in the past two days.

After saying a few words, Lu Weiyu asked curiously: "The strategic integration of Qingchao and Dangkang has completed the first step?"

Fang Nian replied with a smile: "Strictly speaking, it doesn't count, the first step is a long-term process, but the gimmicks are all done;

Light chat is integrated with games, so not only mobile games, but also client games, and even web games;

Just talking about mobile games, now is just the beginning, after all, even mobile games need to be artificially promoted to form an industry outlet;

In fact, the integration of PC games and web games is strictly speaking not a strategic integration of the two parties, but a large-scale tripartite support;

That is: Let Qingchat completely open up third-party interconnection, which can be used by various Internet platforms to call account information, but..."

Speaking of this, Fang Nian smiled slightly: "I forgot to tell Lei Jun about the latter in the capital last time."

"..."

Lu Weiyu smiled lightly: "That's right."

"It doesn't matter if you say it or not, the strategic affairs are done anyway." Fang Nian said indifferently.

On this point, Lu Weiyu agreed, and then said: "The popularity of the word mobile game on the Internet has remained high throughout April. After Qingchat launched the game center, it should have almost reached the trend?"

"I don't care about it." Fang Nian laughed, "This stage basically has nothing to do with me, after all, the trend has been formed;

Now all categories from large-scale mobile games to popular mobile games to small games are covered, and the next step is the process of small fish constantly emerging and being eaten by big fish. "

Lu Weiyu smacked her lips: "Actually, I still don't quite understand, how does the impact fund or capital profit in this process?"

"After all, almost all mobile games do not have a good consumption system. It is not impossible to recharge a computer web page, but it will obviously dissuade many game users. Anyway, mobile games are Tuyile."

Meeting Lu Weiyu's curious eyes, Fang Nian answered after thinking about it.

"I didn't quite understand it at first. After all, I am a pure novice in capital operations. It's just a blind cat meeting a dead mouse."

"But after going through so many rounds of financing, I know a little bit about it."

"As I mentioned before, for capital, there are many ways to make profits, dividends... Dividends can be said to be the most powerless option;

In most cases, profits are made through the primary market, and of course many people make profits through the secondary market. "

Lu Weiyu didn't know much about the capital market, so he was a little confused.

"What is the difference between the primary market and the secondary market?"

Fang Nian rolled his eyes and made a gesture: "My, my, this thing is easy to understand. The secondary market is the various stock exchanges around the world, that is, the trading market."

"Then I understand." Lu Weiyu quickly realized, "Is the primary market called the issuance market? It refers to the various rounds of financing in the company's development process."

Fang Nian smiled and nodded: "Yes."

"In the same period of time, most companies will grow faster in the primary market, especially in the domestic market..."

Having said that, Fang Nian paused slightly: "So now you can understand how capital makes a profit, right?"

Lu Weiyu showed a clear face: "I basically understand."

"At first, I thought it would take a lot of time to generate revenue and even go public, but I didn't expect it..."

"Actually, it's just a game of beating drums and passing flowers." Fang Nian said casually, "The purpose of going public is to exit for better profits."

Lu Weiyu thought about it for a while, and deliberated: "As for the impact fund, have you completed the initial distribution trend, that is, the outlet?"

Having said that, Lu Weiyu looked at Fang Nian.

Fang Nian showed encouragement and signaled Lu Weiyu to continue.

Lu Weiyu didn't shirk, and said while thinking: "According to the definition of primary and secondary markets, let me make an assumption first;

Assuming that a company has a registered capital of 50,000 yuan, if it does not issue shares, no matter how much revenue it makes, it is actually only worth 50,000 yuan at the market level;

Now suppose that on the second day after the company is registered, someone invests money in the company, for example, 50 million, and the company becomes 50 million at the market level;

The same 1% of the shares changed from 500 to 500,000 yuan in just one day;

No matter what kind of exchange can achieve such a high profit multiple, what can support such a high valuation is the business model and future development, right? "

After a short pause, Lu Weiyu added: "From March to now, the impact fund has promoted the formation of a good release trend in the mobile game industry through massive investment of funds;

Coupled with the strategic integration of Dangkang Mobile Games and Qingchat, a new model and more reliable profit possibilities have been launched, so...

Will someone actively want to join this game of drumming and passing flowers? "

After hearing Lu Wei's words, Fang Nian nodded happily: "That's the essence, so now Shen Nier and the others want to take advantage of this opportunity to tell a good and valuable story to those who want to play this game."

"This is also what I said before. Capital does not necessarily look for companies that can make money, but prefers companies that are valuable."

Lu Weiyu showed a clear face, and then his heart moved, and he suddenly said: "I understand why you made a special betting agreement last year!"

Hearing this, Fang Nian smiled: "It has nothing to do with this, in fact, Dangkang is a relatively complicated system;

For example, it really needs to obtain better credit and more resources through the secondary market;

At least make this cash cow more at ease. "

"..."

After Fang Nian finished speaking, Lu Wei said, "Although I don't fully understand, I basically understand what you mean."

"Ok."

"..."

…………

In the evening, the plane landed at Hongqiao Airport.

Apart from the terminal building, Fang Nian and Lu Weiyu got into different cars and separated.

Fang Nian went to the banquet.

Lu Weiyu returned to Junting and passed by Mingzhu Elementary School by the way.

Because Fang Nian and Lu Weiyu went to Yangcheng, Lin Feng and Fang Xin didn't go to Junting either...

A private club in Changning District was brightly lit, but not full of people.

It's quieter inside.

It was not yet 7 o'clock when Fang Nian arrived in a tremella Audi.

Shen Nier personally greeted the door.

"Mr. Shen, good evening, I just went to Yangcheng, and I was delayed for some time." Fang Nian said with a smile.

Hearing this, Neil Shen made a gesture of invitation: "I'm sorry to disturb Mr. Fang's vacation."

"..."

After exchanging a few simple greetings, they also walked to the private room inside.

There were already several familiar faces sitting at the big round table, including Lei Jun, Zhou Quan, Li Chaohui and others.

Seeing Fang Nian, everyone got up and greeted with a smile.

The words are quite apologetic.

After all, today is May Day.

After all, Mr. Fang's laziness is already well known.

"It's so polite, I don't dare to sit down." Fang Nian joked with a smile.

"..."

Within two minutes after Fang Nian was seated, the waiters served various meals.

Shen Nier poured the wine nervously.

Now that Fang Nian has arrived at the dinner table, the two of them are naturally not in a hurry.

While eating and drinking, each farts rainbows.

"More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and Mr. Fang's decision on the trend of the mobile game industry is still vivid in his mind. Once he regains consciousness, this matter will be done."

"New companies in the mobile game industry are popping up like mushrooms after rain, and it's booming!"

"..."

"There is a saying, I have always admired the other party's general vision. More than a month ago, the casual chat was half-dead, and now it has the appearance of a leader in the industry."

"..."

"In the afternoon, I also heard Mr. Ma talking about Mr. Fang and Qingchat. Our WeChat department is probably going to be abolished."

"..."

In the end, Fang Nian didn't believe even a single punctuation mark in Li Zhaohui's words.

Will the WeChat department be abolished?

Abolition today also updated version?

Coax ghosts!

But Fang Nian has long been used to this kind of nonsense, and said with a smile on his mouth: "If you want to talk lightly, you have to find Mr. Lei, he has the most say."

"Qingchao's achievements today are all thanks to Mr. Lei, and have nothing to do with me."

Fang Nian doesn't know anything else, he is proficient in throwing pot skills.

Lei Jun laughed: "Compared to QQ, light chatting is nothing."

Seeing this, Shen Nier smiled lightly, and said calmly: "This is an authentic wild shad, try it..."

"..."

Don't change the subject too easily at the wine table.

The meal took two hours.

Basically rainbow farts.

The things to talk about are basically in rainbow farts and wine.

Fang Nian didn't offer any new constructive suggestions, and almost fully agreed with Shen Neil's ideas.

Dangkang mobile game launched Parkour Master and the integration of light chat and Dangkang mobile game, plus the foundation of the mobile game market itself...

The outlet has been fully formed.

so……

Fang Nian is just here for dinner.
