The reception that Brother Xiao Ma gave to Wei Tao was very high, and it showed a sense of intimacy, rather than just business.
First, in the name of personal matters, I brought my wife over to entertain Wei Tao and Guan Jinyue. Such an atmosphere instantly brought them closer to each other. We didn’t talk about any official business that night, just some simple discussions about hobbies, and some personal interactions. We chatted with each other about anecdotes, tasted wine, and talked about the topic. It can be said that this was a very successful first meeting.
Guan Jinyue prepared a lot of information. When she returned to the hotel room that night, she was also intensively understanding and researching. Her attitude towards games was not very friendly. Now that she has created a game live broadcast platform, she began to become passively interested in this matter. .
Wei Tao didn't tell her that when everything got on track, there would not be a very precise definition of game live broadcast and entertainment live broadcast. Your opponent would not have much restraint on how you want to play. , it can even be said that it has no binding force.
The meeting that turned around seemed much more formal, but it was not the kind of formal negotiation. In the reception room, chatting over tea, everyone first reached a mutual consensus on the next thing to do.
Xiao Ma's attitude is very direct. Guan Jinyue has also learned before that it is impossible for the other party to form an all-round cooperation. With Penguin's strength, there is actually nothing to discuss about this kind of thing.
Wei Tao has been drinking tea and praised today's tea as very good. He couldn't explain why. But at his level, it was enough to praise the tea and it was enough. Someone would naturally help him with a lot of digressions. meaning.
Brother Ma over there stopped talking and was chatting with Wei Tao. Guan Jinyue and Penguin's executives were conducting tentative discussions on reaching a consensus.
The two of them went to Brother Ma's office, lit a cigarette, and the atmosphere immediately changed.
"Mr. Wei, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly."
Wei Tao smiled: "Mr. Ma, what do you think of Ele.me and Meituan?"
Brother Xiao Ma's expression remained unchanged, but there was still a slight change of surprise deep in his eyes. He thought about what kind of communication Wei Tao would have when he came here, and he went through various countermeasures in his mind, even turning against the other party. I also made sufficient mental preparations.
Unexpectedly, what he was talking about was not the cooperation with Riot Games, nor the 'League of Legends' game project that the Penguin team was very optimistic about, but...
Wei Tao said calmly: "Mr. Ma, what do you think of Zhang Xuhao and Wang Xing?"
Seeing that Wei Tao really wants to talk in depth, he is also a young capital boss in the country. His views on many things cannot be kept as secrets. If there are bosses of the same level sitting together to communicate, even Call it a good opportunity.
The program "Win in China" has broadened Lin'an Ma's social circle and led to more cooperation. These cooperations were of little value in the early stage and gave people the impression that they were supporting young people and new projects. However, when each other started After there is real cooperation, that is the beginning.
Giving young people and new project entrepreneurial funds may not bring real benefits to these young people, but to these veterans, who all have their own personal relationships with each other. You have it and I have it, and I have it and you have it, and there is an environment for conversation. , a few words can provide the basis for cooperation.
From Lin'an Ma Layout Brother Media, there has been talk of a wealthy faction. They gather together and form a fist. Once they attack, they are so lethal that even if they are used for defense, it is difficult for others to match.
Brother Ma just thought about it for a short while, lit another cigarette, handed one to Wei Tao, and helped him light it. The two looked at each other, and they both knew that today was an occasion where they could talk about something, and it was not friendship. Talking briefly and deeply is a kind of elementary temptation. It can be said that a deal cannot be done without justice. If we can reach an agreement, it will be fine. If we can't reach an agreement, everyone will just treat it as a simple exchange. If you don't take it seriously, no one will. Seriously, there is no possibility that the conversation between each other will be spread outside.
It's not credibility, it's based on mutual respect and recognition. If you are not that kind of person, then naturally I will have a different attitude towards you in the future.
The secret that two people know can be called a secret. I didn't tell it, so if it gets spread, it will only be said by you. This kind of secret does not involve deliberately hiding it from the person next to you. It does not need to be discussed at all. When the tentative cooperation has progressed for a period of time and everyone begins to have the idea of in-depth cooperation, it is the time to truly convene the think tanks around them for all-round consultation.
Brother Xiao Ma said calmly: "Zhang Xuhao still has something inherited in his bones. When it comes to his character, even if he is very gangster, he still has family background behind him, he has the confidence to do things, and he is more aggressive than others, but it will not have a real impact. Whether he succeeds or fails, it will not prevent him from continuing to maintain his character and temper. As for Wang Xing..."
After a pause, Brother Ma decided to tell the truth. This can be regarded as the first step forward for each other. Regarding Wei Tao's operations in the capital market and the cash flow wealth he currently has, although I don't necessarily need you, But who cares about having multiple friends and multiple paths? Look at Lin'an Ma. They have gathered a large amount of power to consume a lot of the power that they promised to go out when starting a business and now start to constrain him.
"If we were doing the same project, the final winner would probably be Wang Xing."
Wei Tao asked, "Aren't they the same person?"
Xiao Ma nodded: "Yes, but Wang Xing has experienced real failure."
Wei Tao sat up straight, leaned forward slightly, stared at the other person and asked, "If you are asked to invest in someone, who would you invest in?"
Brother Ma replied to Wei Tao with an "insincere" answer: "Zhang Xuhao."
"oh?"
"I will be optimistic about Zhang Xuhao in the early stage. He still has some idealistic room for practical operation. In the middle and late stages, from a purely capital perspective, Wang Xing is the most suitable."
wipe!
I wipe it!
Wei Tao's expression showed no emotion, but he was already using modal particles to express his mood. This little Ma is so awesome. If Search Li is a technical geek, and Lin'an Ma is the helmsman who controls the overall layout, then Xiao Ma Brother Ma is the king in terms of vision and practical operation, but the only problem is that he lacks a little innovative spirit.
His style also extends to the entire Penguin style. Some innovations are unnecessary, while others are absolutely necessary. However, Ma Xiaomao is always a little hesitant in this regard.
If this were not the case, Wei Tao would not come.
When I came to hear the other party’s analysis, I was really convinced. I directly analyzed the two hostile parties thoroughly. This is also the case. The future Penguin series and Ali series will be interchangeable in these two projects. It cannot be said that Ali will later The acquisition of Ele.me failed because the strategic layouts of both parties were different.
It can be said seriously that Xiao Ma later switched to investing in Meituan and led the Penguin department, which indeed made a lot of money.
Wei Tao also went straight to the point and did not beat around the bush: "If Mr. Ma engages in investment, we can cooperate strategically. I always make small fuss here. Among thousands of entrepreneurial projects, I always think about digging for gold. I have more luck. If given the chance, I still want to play bigger, but as you can see, I am a person who can easily be underestimated if I work alone."
The words were kind and modest, how could Brother Ma not stop there.
There was a faint smile on his face, but his eyes were sincere. Everyone talked openly and honestly. How many deep things there will be in the future is up to everyone to judge based on their own ability. The current attitude is the key.
"Why me?" Xiao Ma was puzzled.
Everyone knows that you, Mr. Wei, are very active in the entertainment industry, so why don't you cooperate with Lin'an Ma? You have a good relationship with the bosses there, and we also cooperated after "Win in China".
Wei Tao spread his hands, curled his lips, and said with an expression that I don't know why: "I don't have much ability. Everything I do depends on luck."
Brother Ma thought for a while and asked a question that seemed a bit rash at first: "Isn't it because of this cooperation?"
Wei Tao laughed loudly: "Mr. Ma, why do I feel so offended? Am I the kind of person who designs a link to achieve a certain purpose?"
Brother Ma didn't look embarrassed at all because of this smile: "Isn't it?"
Wei Tao looked serious and said seriously: "No."
Brother Ma also looked much more serious: "Put the game aside, it's just a small amount of money."
】
"OK."
It's not a small amount of money, but it's a lot of money. It can also solidify the image of an Internet boss that he has created so far and increase the stickiness of his fans.
Think about it, it is a legend of krypton gold games, it is also the originator of live streaming gifts like Waiwai, and there are resources in the field of national games, think about the traffic era that is about to come, and the traffic fans of network anchors are all It can hit a very scary level, what about me?
"League of Legends" can make money for me, and it's okay if I don't. The key is to get involved.
The cooperative investment is also sincere, not to rely on a big tree, but because we also have a 'small-scale team' that can help each other in the icing on the cake stage.
In the office, they chatted all afternoon, but the two of them paid no attention to the 'business' side.
In the evening, we have a small wine shop in private, high-end taste. Fortunately, Wei Tao does not pursue that. There is nothing wrong with drinking red wine, but I have to prepare the side dishes. You expect me to shake the wine glass and taste it slowly with you, and also say noon. Maoyoulai, I'm sorry, this is not the way I drink.
There can be a cigar shop, a private winery for drinking, everyone can sit casually and chat, there is nothing wrong with this. The little fast guy will prepare it for me, put the side dishes on the table, and I don’t mind if I make a delicious hangover soup, anyway, who Don't laugh at me, I'm just a bumpkin from the Northeast. If you feel uncomfortable watching, then don't watch. Just turn around or leave.
Guan Jinyue knew Wei Tao, so she would not become impatient because of this, and she temporarily put down the negotiation of intentions. At the wine party in the evening, she was also very smart, and in terms of control, she was the best for Xiao Ma and the others. Left a very deep and good impression.
If there was a former high school classmate of hers here at this time, she would really dare not recognize her. Is this the Guan Jinyue who only wears school uniforms all year round and has long bangs? Does she have such a good figure? Isn't she hunchbacked? Also, this curve is due to the obstruction of the school uniform, or is it due to late development.
The appearance is a bit worse, but the key is the image, temperament and conversation, especially the latter. How could this be Guan Jinyue who always lowers her head and refuses to ask or speak?
You can't even imagine how people change, but with or without Wei Tao, Guan Jinyue will be so radiant in the future. Her forbearance and inner abilities have no place to be used during school. Only when she can truly open up When you live your own life, you will truly release your strength far beyond what others imagine.
Some people, even if they are covered in dust all the way, can't hide their true pearl essence. Guan Jinyue is such a person. In order to be able to complete her weakest stage, she still endures even though she has dazzling strength, just because she doesn't want to have a little high-profile to ruin her success. environment for survival.
No one cares about her, no one cares about her, she can only protect herself and set up a barrier for herself to protect herself.
Now she no longer needs to cover herself up.
She was so radiant, but before she was fully released, she entered another round of learning and catching up mode. The things she had accumulated along the way were enough to become an excellent person, but in the face of reality, she had to bow her head and continue learning.
The current level is really one dimension higher than what she can control.
Just like back then in Songjiang, in that small bungalow, there was always an idol in her eyes that she was chasing, both then and now.
At the beginning, many people couldn't see how good he was, just like they do now. Senior sister Nan Li would say that she was wronged and that by following Wei Tao, her talent did not show up. Only she knew that it was precisely because of following him that she had made such great progress. Guan Jinyue thought before that she would live a super golden collar life. In life, you will become a working CEO. Having that confidence only requires the accumulation of time.
What now?
Everything has become different. Whoever you are contacting, Lin'an Ma, Xiao Ma, Lao Shi, Lao Niu, has reached the level of the top rich people in the country. If you don't study at this time, you will be completely left behind in a few days. behind.
Fortunately, she understands Wei Tao, and therefore, as long as she firmly supports Wei Tao on some matters, she will soon get an excellent answer for things she doesn't understand, and she can answer them in the shortest time. time to improve yourself.
After returning to the hotel, Guan Jinyue had already guessed through their chat: "Do you want to promote this cooperation through other cooperation?"
Wei Tao sat on the chair, and Guan Jinyue next to him took off his T-shirt and shoes. Then he motioned for him to stand up and helped him take off his pants, so that he could enter the house as quickly as possible from a tipsy state. Comfortable state, avoiding the discomfort caused by the hot weather here, and enjoying the comfort brought by the cold air of the indoor air conditioner.
"That's right, that's not the case. I have to do something big with Brother Ma. He's in front and I'm hiding behind. There aren't that many trivial matters. I just need to invest the money and wait to make money."
"Then what?"
"It's time to eat, drink, have fun, and live my wealthy and idle life. Xiaoyue, you have to work hard. In the future, you will have to support the business of such a big business at home."
Guan Jinyue suddenly thought of the name he asked her to call him at certain times. Later, she learned that men have bad tastes in their hearts. Many of them hope that their girlfriends will call him that inappropriate name at a certain moment.
Who am I to inherit your family business?
