8 PM.
"Sister Tong, did my mom call you?”，In the car, Wei Chuyang asked Wei Baitong who was driving.
" Yeah, Auntie called this morning to ask about your situation. Did you work hard? I told you the best, but I wasn't wrong. You're the most comfortable person in the company. Other than writing code, you don't really manage anything," the young lady complained as she drove.
" How am I comfortable? I'm the one who's working the hardest. I don't know how many brain cells are needed for every proposal," Wei Chuyang retorted.
" Boss, it's been hard on you. The proposal was just something you said casually. Didn't you see how hard you thought about it? You came up with it so easily," Zhao Xiaodao, who was sitting in the backseat, couldn't help but retort after hearing Wei Chuyang's words.
Wei Botong also chimed in," Xiao Dao is right. I can't see where you're wasting your brain cells. When I was at Baidu, those planning colleagues would lie in front of the computer all night for a plan. They were not like you, who would write it as if it was a meal. Also, you write songs and sing songs. You can compete with others to write for a year. I think you only spend some time recording songs. Comparing people is really infuriating. Sigh."。。”
"What do you mean by sigh? You only smelled my perfume, but you didn't see my sweat. And Sister Xiao Dao, you're also blind. I work twenty-five hours a day, can't you see? Wei Chuyang pretended to cry.
" Stop pretending. We're here. Get out of the car." Wei Baitong ignored Wei Chuyang's teasing.
The number of users had exceeded 10 million. No matter what, they had to celebrate. It was still the restaurant that they had booked last time.
When the three of them entered, there was naturally no lack of applause.
Wei Chuyang waved his hand and looked around. There were more people than last time. There were almost seventy people now. Everyone had already started eating and drinking.
" I'll go to Old Zhang's table," Wei Chuyang said to the group of beauties. He wanted to escape. The main table was full of beauties, so there was nothing to talk about. It was boring.
" Go, go. Don't drink. Otherwise, I'll report it to you the next time Auntie calls," Wei Baitong didn't pull Wei Chuyang away and just reminded him.
" Go away, go away. It feels like we're all wolves, but Boss, you have to say something first," Wang Shihan reminded.
Wei Chuyang nodded and went to Zhang Hanwen's table. He poured himself a glass of beer and ignored Wei Botong's stare. He picked it up and said," Thank you, everyone here. As you all know, at 7 o'clock, the number of registered users of our neighbor's network broke through 11 million. In less than 20 days, this achievement is all thanks to everyone's joint efforts. Let's raise our glasses and celebrate together. Cheers!"
Everyone cheered and drank the celebratory wine.
"Everyone, please take a seat. I'm going to announce a piece of good news. The company has decided that everyone present, regardless of their position, will be rewarded with 10,000 yuan in cash. Let's make a scene today."
" Long live the boss!" When they heard the bonus, everyone clapped and was extremely happy.
" Boss, we'd like to see you sing more," someone who was bolder said.
Before he even had a bite to eat, he heard someone suggest singing. He turned around and saw Li Decheng, the technical developer of the music team. He was also recruited by Wei Chuyang through an interview. His skills were not bad and he was now in charge of music.
" Sure, Old Li, you go first. I'll eat first before I go." Wei Chuyang went to the table and pushed Li Decheng to a small stage in the restaurant.
After Li Decheng finished singing " Lilac," Wei Chuyang also went up to sing." The Brigest Star in the Night Sky,"" South Mountain,"" I Believe,"" Cao Cao," and " Tiktok." Everyone had learned these five songs and could sing them. Those who couldn't sing them also hummed along.
Wei Chuyang, who was enjoying himself, didn't want to get off the stage. He continued to sing Cui Jian's "
"I used to ask endlessly
When will you go with me?
But you always laugh at me
nothing
I want to give you what I want
And my freedom
But you always laugh at me
nothing
。。。。。。”
There was a sense of anger and powerlessness that filled " I Have Nothing," and it was fully reflected in Wei Chuyang's sincere and violent singing.
After the song ended, Wei Chuyang was tired and couldn't sing anymore. He switched to another person.
After a round of toasting, everyone let go. There were people singing and dancing.
Meanwhile, Wei Chuyang and Old Zhang were discussing the Gwall language.
。。。。。
On the next day, the video of the company's celebration spread across the internet with a post titled " Someone else's company."
Wei Chuyang also took a look. It was about some benefits, the enthusiasm of the employees, and the growth of the number of users.
" This is the most awesome start-up company I've ever seen. In just 20 days, it has increased by 10 million users."
"The boss is too young and too handsome."
"Sigh, it's someone else's child and someone else's company.。。”
" Hehe, young man, you're getting too cocky. You sang 'Nothing at All' so affectionately. It's a pity that you didn't sing 'Nothing at All'."
"Singing about the boss who has nothing and giving everyone a bonus of 10,000 yuan. He really has nothing.。。。。This pretentious act is the best!"
。。。。。。
In the conference room of Baidu's headquarters, all of Wei Chuyang's related videos were playing. The Song Jiang-style product experience that he talked about at the first celebration, the four Bilin advertisements, and the words that Wei Chuyang said at the celebration yesterday.
" The young man in the video is the Wei Chuyang I mentioned to you before. Don't look down on his age. This website is doing very well, and the number of users has already exceeded ten million. It hasn't even been twenty days. It's crazy. Everyone has finished watching the video. Let's share our thoughts," Li Baidu said to the dumbfounded management after the video finished playing. Li Baidu knew how everyone felt. If he hadn't watched Wei Chuyang grow from nothing, he wouldn't have been able to imagine, believe, and accept it.
" This is unbelievable. Let me snap back to reality." Zhu Hongbo, the vice president of Baidu, shook his head." The Song Jiang-style product experience that this young man talked about is very novel. If we want to build a good brand image, we have to learn from Song Jiang. The second most classic example is video advertising. I think this will be a classic video marketing case that is worth studying and applying."
" I agree with Mr. Zhu. We, Baidu, have to learn from him and do our own video marketing to build our brand and fight against Google," Vice President Liang Dong said.
“。。。。。。”
The others also expressed their opinions.
" Alright, Liang Dong, you'll be in charge of marketing and brand promotion. Go down and organize the relevant personnel to learn and launch our video marketing in the shortest time possible. We'll use viral marketing to gain the reputation of the audience. We have to let everyone know that our Baidu is the best Chinese search engine. Our Chinese is the best and we understand Chinese the best. That's our main characteristic," Li Baidu said to Liang Dong.
"Let's talk about investing in Bilin. On the phone last time, Wei Chuyang told me the conditions. When the user base exceeds 20 million, we will accept venture capital investments. 100 million USD will be 10% of the shares, which means that the valuation of Bilin is 1 billion USD.”Li Baidu continued.
" This valuation is really too high. It's reasonable for Bilin to be valued at 100 million USD, but I think we should invest in Bilin and get in touch with it. Not only is Bilin's product at the forefront, but its marketing is also at the forefront. It has great potential. I don't think many people on this team can surpass their results," Vice President Wang Xiao said.
"The product is good, the reputation is good, and the marketing is unique. It's all there. With the spread of word of mouth, the probability of users exceeding 20 million in less than a month is as high as 80%. Within half a year, the probability of users exceeding 30 million is also very high. I suggest investing," said Wang Mengqiu, the senior manager of the search department.
"The product is indeed very good, but I think the valuation of one billion US dollars is too high and the risk is too high."
" I also think that the risks are too high. The Internet is a high-risk industry. We should be cautious."
" The risk is high, but the returns are high. The US's Face raised 12 million USD in April, and its valuation reached 100 million USD. I think it's a bit ridiculous for the user base of Bilin to reach 20 million, but like President Wang said, I also think that Bilin is definitely worth 100 million USD. And according to the current trend, it will soon break through 20 million users. 30 million is in sight. We should contact them in advance and talk about a 100 million valuation," Zhu Hongbo said.
Everyone spoke one after another and argued endlessly. In the end, a vote was held and most of them agreed to invest.
" Alright then. I'll go over to discuss the investment in the afternoon. Mengqiu, come with me. Everyone is dismissed." Li Baidu made the final decision.
