HPDBC Chapter 171 Financing Us? The Shock At Station B!
Chapter 171 Financing Us? The Shock At Station B!
"Old Xu, what are you talking about?"
"Jiaxing and the others want to win [Station B] together?"
"seriously!"
"Are they rich enough now?"
Seeing the shocked eyes of his wife Tao Hong,
Xu Zheng couldn't help but smiled wryly:
"Honey, does this scare you?"
"Didn't you say before that they spent 10 billion to buy a coal mine?"
"10 billion, bought a coal mine!"
"Now I still have spare money to buy [Bilibili], it seems not unreasonable.
"It's just that my scalp is numb."
"You said, we are also artists, and we debuted so many years earlier than Mr. Yang."
"Why do you feel like we are poor compared to them?"
Hearing Lao Xu's complaints,
The corner of Tao Hong's mouth couldn't help twitching,
At this moment, she didn't know how to answer Xu Zheng's words.
It's a bit disappointing, but isn't it true?
She Tao Hong used to be considered a smash hit actress,
So is her husband Xu Zheng, who has been doing okay all these years.
But the couple have worked so hard to earn money for so many years,
The money saved may not be enough for a fraction of Boss Yang and the others.
Sure enough, people cannot be compared with each other,
Thinking of this, Tao Hong sighed helplessly:
"Maybe our family doesn't have the life to get rich at all."
Chen Rui, 51 years old this year,
He was once the co-founder of Kingsoft, one of the earliest Internet software companies,
Later, he also served as the general manager of the Jinshan Drug Bully Project,
The success in his career gave Chen Rui a lot of money,
In order to seek greater development, Chen Rui stepped into the investment world and became an angel investor.
The well-known browser Cheetah has been invested by him,
Only later, after discovering [Bilibili], he was immediately attracted by this very interesting project,
Packaged and sold all the assets in his hands, and then raised financing [哔里哔哩]!
In the beginning, he was just an investor of [Bilibili],
Later, with the help of very rich management experience, he stepped into the management position of the company step by step.
Now, he has become the chairman of [Bilibili],
Even the power in the hands of founder Xu Yi has been transferred to him.
Why choose [Bilibili]?
It is because in Chen Rui's eyes, when a country's economy develops to a certain stage, its cultural development will definitely usher in a gushing explosion.
The development of facts has proved that Chen Rui's vision is not wrong!
[Bilibili] This portal community that focuses on animation, games, and music,
In the process of continuous development, we have gained more and more user recognition!
From only a few thousand users at the beginning, to now with hundreds of millions of registrations,
For [Bilibili], Chen Rui and the management really don't know how much effort they put in.
However, with the rapid development of [Bilibili],
Some very fatal problems have finally come to the fore.
That is the profitability of [Station B], it is really bad!
In order to bring a "home" feeling to all users,
[Station B] has made a promise that it will never insert advertisements in the drama,
This also means that [Station B] lacks a core profit point.
There is no other way, since you can’t rely on [insert advertising] to make a profit, you can only make money through other ways,
So Chen Rui led [Station B] and made some small changes.
games, live broadcast, offline activities, e-commerce,
These sections are all transformations that Xu Rui led [Station B] to implement commercialization,
It's a pity that, lacking the profits of the most simple and rude interstitial advertisements, these changes made by Chen Rui with [Station B] did not bring much improvement to their business conditions.
In the eyes of outsiders, [Station B] has a huge user traffic, and it seems to have been very successful.
But how much suffering there is, only they know best in their own hearts.
Do you think it doesn’t cost money to introduce fan dramas?
Do you think there is no need to consume costs to operate [Bilibili]?
So right now, [Station B] is caught in a very painful cycle,
In order to maintain the number of users and bring users an excellent experience,
They have to keep throwing money into it to improve the quality of [Station B].
But spending money is spending money, no income is very annoying,
The problem of "poor revenue capability" is really too fatal.
From the surface, [Bilibili] seems to have nothing to do with the entertainment circle,
But in fact, wanting to raise funds for [Huanxi Media] is also a bold attempt made by [Bilibili].
Just like [Youku] and [Aiqiyi], [Bilibili] is also thinking about coming out of the two-dimensional community and making [Bilibili] a diversified product.
If [Huanxi Media] can successfully raise funds, then [Station B] will be able to obtain the exclusive external broadcast rights of all film and television works and new works of the other party, as well as the derivative development rights of film and television works.
Once this step is widened, then they will be able to vigorously introduce more film and television works to [Station B] in the future.
What makes Xu Rui feel regretful is that director Xu Zheng rejected them.
This made Xu Rui feel uncomfortable.
Is it really so difficult to open up a new development path?
[Station B] Headquarters, in the chairman's office,
Seeing Chen Rui's worried face, Xu Yi, the general manager of [Station B], couldn't help asking:
"Director Xu, director Xu Zheng rejected us, right?"
Hearing Xu Yi's question, Chen Rui nodded:
"Yeah, Xu rejected us!"
"They said they wanted to cooperate with Jiaxing."
"We can't force others, are you right?"
11
Xu Yi is the founder of [Bilibili], but now, all his rights have been taken away by Chen Rui, an investor.
In the eyes of many outsiders, this move is close to seizing power,
But in fact, this matter is not as bloody as everyone thinks,
Xu Yi is willing to hand over the core management rights of 【B Station】.
He likes the second dimension, and he is relatively simple.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to establish [Station B]!
And most importantly, he is very self-aware, knowing that he lacks a lot in terms of management ability.
As long as he can ensure that [Station B] in his mind has not deteriorated, then whoever can lead [Station B] to develop well will be willing to give up the position of the person in charge.
In fact, if it wasn't for this, how could Xu Yi still be here?
The relationship between the two is not as bad as the outside world guesses.
Now, upon hearing Chen Rui's answer, Xu Yi couldn't help asking:
"Which company is Jiaxing?"
He only pays attention to the second dimension, and it is understandable that he has never heard of Jiaxing, so Chen Rui said:
"Jiaxing is an entertainment company."
"Their boss, you should have heard it!"
"It's that very famous actress, Yang Mi!"
"This company is very powerful. I heard from some friends in the business world that they spent 10 billion to buy a coal mine before.
"Compared with them, the strength of our [Station B] is really poor."
"So it's no wonder Director Xu and the others rejected us."
Chen Rui is quite self-aware,
Jiaxing is an entertainment company, and it will obviously help [Huanxi Media] more,
[Station B] Compared with them, it is really not attractive at all.
As for Xu Yi, after hearing these words from Chen Rui, he was obviously taken aback:
"Entertainment?"
"Spent 10 billion to buy a coal mine and come back?"
"Chen Dong, is it true or not?"
"Since they are an entertainment company, what are they doing in real coal mines?"
www.
Chen Rui felt that his head hurt,
What kind of mental retardation question is this asking?
You don't even know why the other party bought the coal mine,
Can I know why the other party will buy it?
Thinking of this, Chen Rui could only speak:
"Maybe it's because I think buying coal mines can make money."
"The rich man's world, that's beyond what you and I can imagine.
11
This is also the essence of what he said, except for a moment, he didn't speak.
That's right, as long as you have money, don't say there is no coal mine, you just buy a rocket and come back, and no one cares about you?
But only if you can afford it.
After a few seconds of silence, Xu Yi asked softly:
"Then why don't we switch to a company in the entertainment industry for financing?"
Hearing this, Chen Rui nodded:
"Up to now, there is only one company to change."
"But we have to search first to see if there is a more suitable one."
"You can't just grab a company in the entertainment industry and raise money, right?"
"At the very least, they have the potential to produce good film and television works."
[Station B] There are already a lot of users, but in Chen Rui's eyes, it's not enough!
Not only the users of the second dimension, it is better to introduce more users who like to watch movies and TV shows,
In this way, [Bilibili] transformation will be easier.
However, no matter how many actions [B station] will take next, it will continue to burn money.
Thinking of this, Chen Rui added a few more words:
"We don't have much money in our account recently.
"It's likely to come back with a little more financing."
Hearing this, Xu Yi's scalp went numb:
"Will anyone else be willing to refinance us?"
Chen Rui smiled wryly:
"Who knows, but you have to try."
Don't look at 【Bilibili】has already raised several rounds,
But in fact, this company is really not a company that investors are optimistic about.
Those financiers who were able to be brought in were all because Chen Rui put up his old face and begged his grandpa and grandma with the help of his previous relationship network.
But there is no way, poor profitability, financing will be difficult, which is also understandable.
So seeing Chen Rui's exhausted state, Xu Yi couldn't bear to say:
"] Director Chen, I have really worked hard for you these years."
Chen Rui forced a smile:
"We are all one family, what do you do with such kind words!"
"It doesn't matter, although we are a little bit difficult now, but I believe that as long as we continue to work hard, we will find a way to make money sooner or later.
However, at the moment when Chen Rui's voice just fell,
suddenly
his cell phone rang,
Seeing that the caller was from an unfamiliar number, Chen Rui frowned slightly,
He thought it was a nuisance call, but just in case, he connected it anyway:
"Hello, who are you looking for?"
After Chen Rui asked aloud, a female voice came from the phone soon:
"Hello, is this [Bilibili] chairman Chen Ruichen?"
This female voice is nice, but it feels very strange,
But Chen Rui still said:
"I'm Chen Rui, may I ask who you are?"
"Chen Dong, hello, let me introduce myself first, I am the owner of Jiaxing Entertainment, and my name is Yang Mi."
"I got your phone number from Director Xu Zheng, so please don't take offense if I call you rashly.
The person who called me was the boss of Jiaxing Entertainment?
Yang Mi??
Hearing this, Chen Rui was stunned,
real or fake?
This is impossible, right?
Why would Yang Mi call herself?
Chen Rui, who couldn't believe it, hurriedly asked:
"Excuse me, are you really Jiaxing's boss, Teacher Yang Mi?"
Hearing this, Yang Ning couldn't help laughing:
"Chen Dong, it's me!"
"If (Zhao Nuo's) result is not sure, you can also call our Jiaxing official number to check, or you can check with Teacher Xu Zheng."
Boss Yang's words have already reached this level, if Chen Rui still doubts the identity of the other party, then there is really something wrong with him.
In the next second, he greeted the other party enthusiastically:
"Teacher Yang Mi, hello, hello!"
"Nice to meet you!"
Chen Rui's age is a circle older than Boss Yang. Originally, according to his status, he didn't need to be so polite to Boss Yang.
But there is no way now, who made Jiaxing awesome?
In the business world, whoever has money is the uncle,
The fact that Jiaxing bought a coal mine with a huge sum of 10 billion yuan immediately raised the status of Boss Yang.
That's why Chen Rui was so polite to Yang Mi at this time.
It's just that Chen Rui didn't figure out why Boss Yang would call him so well,
So the next second, he asked aloud:
"Teacher Yang Mi, can I take the liberty to ask, "Why are you looking for me?"
Hearing Chen Rui's question, Boss Yang smiled and said:
"Chen Dong, the situation is like this."
"We heard about you [Station B] from Director Xu Zheng!"
"Then, we are quite interested in [Station B], and we are quite optimistic about it.
"So I called and asked [Station B] if there was any idea of financing in the near future.
"We, Jiaxing, are willing to become a partner of [Station B]!"
After saying this, Chen Rui was dumbfounded.
Fuck, is it true or not?
He just had a headache, and then he has to ask which grandparents can come and give them a round of financing,
In the blink of an eye, some investors came to the door on their own initiative?
And it was Jiaxing who just cut off their [B station]??.
