Chapter 1503 Confirmation of Judgment

Once the offer of 51% of 30 million holdings was made, it was unanimously approved by the team. For the founding team of Qiqi, this offer is no different from a pie in the sky.

At a time when the capital market is not yet mature, and the business model has not been fully recognized by the market, the Qidian team has been looking for money in the capital market for a long time, but without success, but now, the money is not only delivered to the door, but also Far more than you want.

Therefore, before the person in charge of Qiqi could return to the Shanghai Stock Exchange, he immediately signed a contract with Muye Technology on behalf of the entire team.

The pre-investment team is exempted from due diligence, and the pre-investment financial audit is also exempted. It will be done after the investment is completed. Li Mu’s is simply beyond imagination. He made an offer yesterday, signed it today, paid the same day after signing, and started immediately. Prepare to launch a reading channel on yy online.

The reason for being so casual is that, on the one hand, Li Mu is very confident in the team's abilities, and on the other hand, he really doesn't have much money, only tens of millions. Just a quick investment and a quick decision can also leave a Muye Technology for other entrepreneurial teams. A good impression of giving money generously and paying readily.

However, giving money at will does not mean that Li Mu has not done things carefully. At the current stage, it is meaningless to rely on the Internet to make money. The net profit rate in this industry is so low that it is beyond imagination. Let’s take a look at the current business model and subscribe. Share with the author 5:5, that is to say, the gross profit margin is 50% of the revenue, but within this 50%, we must bear all the operating costs of the company, personnel salaries, office space, office supplies, financial losses, corporate taxes, In the end, there may not be a few percentage points left, and the total amount itself is small, and there is no hope for profit margins.

However, what Li Mu values ​​is the future of this industry. Behind the network, it represents an excellent content library, a strong user stickiness and a broad space for derivative development. Excellent content can generate a natural centripetal force for users and bring about the promotion of the platform. It has huge advantages, and excellent content can greatly enhance users’ loyalty to the platform. At present, although these excellent online literature are only digital texts, in the near future, they can be transformed into powerful The high-quality ip can be delivered to multiple derivative directions such as film and television, animation, and games, and has become a hot item in this field.

In the future, if yy.com wants to increase user stickiness, it will be difficult to maintain it with short, fragmented information and blogs, but high quality is different. The high quality of serialization can create a strong stickiness for users, allowing users to log on to the platform every day. Reading, this advantage is very powerful. In the near future, the yy network reading channel will be opened. All the content can be loaded in and provided to all yy users with only one or a second-level domain name. This will not only improve yy The volume of content on the Internet can also enhance the viscosity of yy users and promote the rapid development of the entire Internet literature.

Moreover, in the future, the demand for high-quality IPs will continue to increase. Winning this high-quality copyright ammunition store ahead of time will be a great complement to Muye's strength. At the same time, Wanying Real Estate also has a film and television program that is about to start. base project,

These high-quality IPs can also be quickly digested through the film and television base, the super platform of the film and television industry, to form a whole industry chain.

...

Just when Li Mu was in the bag at the speed of light, and when the world media continued to report extensively on his two big plans, Li Mu, who was in the center of public opinion, got the news that Lin Qingya was from the United States.

Last time, Li Mu asked Li Ziwei to convey her own appeal, and asked her to follow her own direction to investigate two recent key trends of Microsoft, and both have received replies.

First of all, it is about the issue of the departure and retention of Microsoft's former msn project team employees.

Lin Qingya conducted a very rigorous investigation of Microsoft through routine investigations and hiring high-end private investigators. After several days of investigation and analysis by private investigators, she came to the following conclusions.

First, when msn announced that it would stop maintenance, all msn staff were not fired, but were transferred internally within Microsoft;

This is a bit unusual. According to Microsoft's previous routine, it has almost never happened that a business unit is abolished, and so many employees are idle without layoffs. Moreover, the internal transfer of so many employees has brought pressure to various other departments. It's very big. It must have taken a lot of effort for Microsoft to digest and absorb such a large team.

To give the simplest example, the KPI assessment indicators alone will have a great negative impact. A team of 150 people, shouldering a labor cost of 100 million US dollars and a performance KPI of 1 billion US dollars, was originally completed without any problem, but suddenly It is required to accept at least 30 employees from other departments, and they are all highly paid, increasing labor costs by at least 20 million US dollars a year, which has a great impact on the department, and the addition of 30 new employees, especially those originally responsible for other areas. Employees will increase the digestive pressure of the department, but will slow down the rhythm of the entire team.

Microsoft is willing to pay such a price and keep these people, which proves that Microsoft's social heart has not died.

Second, some old employees in the msn system chose to resign because they could not adapt to their new positions. However, as Li Mu guessed, these people have recently returned to Microsoft one after another. This further proves Li Mu's guess. If Microsoft did not want to Playing the social card again, it is impossible to re-call these employees who have left the company again;

Third, and the most direct proof, private investigators have closely monitored and investigated the employees of these old msn divisions and found that their working hours have increased significantly recently.

Among the many private investigations against Microsoft employees, the most representative one is an engineer named Anglo. Since the private detective began to investigate him in the past few days, he goes to work every day at 8:30 in the morning and ends at night. At ten o'clock, which coincided with a weekend, he also worked overtime in the company on Saturday, and also worked from morning to night.

To prove that the man's job trajectory had changed, private investigators investigated his credit card spending records.

Americans rarely carry cash when they go out. Credit cards and cash checks are the main means of payment. The most commonly used one is credit cards. A person’s credit card consumption record is enough to draw a portrait of his entire person’s behavior.

Just a month ago, for several months, Anglo's credit card consumption records showed that he rarely worked overtime. For example, after 6 pm on weekdays, he spent almost every day on his credit card. Moreover, the consumption scenes are entertainment and leisure places such as gas stations, cafes, supermarkets, bars, and movie theaters, which proves that a month ago, this person basically did not work overtime.

Moreover, statistics on his spending on each weekend in the past few months will show that he often flies from Seattle to San Francisco on Friday nights and then back to Seattle from San Francisco on Sunday nights. Private investigators continue to investigate. , found that Anglo's wife and children settled in San Francisco, so he would go back to San Francisco every weekend to accompany his wife and children.

However, since more than a month ago, Anglo has not flown to San Francisco until now, why? Because he works overtime at Microsoft headquarters every Saturday.

Interestingly, the private detectives also made a very unexpected discovery. In order to obtain all the clues, they checked Anglo's wife in reverse to see if she would come to Seattle to accompany Anglo every week. It was found that in the past month or so, Anglo's wife has only been to Seattle once, and her credit card has opened a room in a local high-end hotel in San Francisco five times, each time it is a high-end room with hundreds of dollars a night , and, every time I go there to meet her, it turns out to be her fitness instructor.

All in all, the evidence chain at the personnel level is already very obvious. According to Li Mu's nuclear weapons logic, each of them is Microsoft's uranium reserves. Now, they are all mined by Microsoft, which proves that Microsoft really wants to do nuclear work. article;

Secondly, it is a survey of Microsoft's recent actions in data processing centers, computer rooms, and bandwidth, and the results also have very clear findings.

An offshore company actually controlled by Microsoft has invested 200 million US dollars in Chicago, built three large data processing centers, and three data processing centers in Texas are under construction. The data processing service company signed an agreement to lock in a large amount of computer room and bandwidth redundancy.

Microsoft is different from Muye Technology. The core product of Muye Technology is to link users all over the world, through text, through voice, through video, and through music and hobbies. In this case, Muye Technology has a great demand for data processing capabilities. In contrast, after Microsoft stopped msn, most of its products are tool software. Users of these software do not need to be interconnected, but only need to connect with the headquarters to ensure updates and daily information exchange, so they need data processing capabilities. It is several grades worse than Makino Technology.

Makino Technology is like an electrolytic aluminum super factory with the world's largest output. The power consumption is so large that it has to invest in building multiple power plants around the world to reduce costs and ensure power supply, but Microsoft is like a company with the world's largest output. No. 1 beef production base, the demand for electricity is far less terrifying than that of electrolytic aluminum, but such a company whose main business is cattle raising has built a number of power plants. There must be some hidden secrets.

This is Li Mu's second basis for judging Microsoft's actions. It has been confirmed that Microsoft is mining uranium and that Microsoft has invested a huge amount of electricity. Even if he has not seen thousands of centrifuges hidden in the dark, he can be sure. What Microsoft wants to do is nuclear weapons!

After his judgment was confirmed, Li Mu immediately approached Chen Tong, and the first sentence of the meeting was to ask him, "How is the development of titter?!"
