Chapter 740： [Watch the excitement]

Zhang Bowen came to Yao Jianhong to pour bitterness. Luo Sheng didn't know that the competition in the industry is fierce, and it is most appropriate to push Lao Zhang to the front. He "hidden" and watched this good show from behind.

Baby Zhang is a bit wronged now, and will compensate him with more salary in the future.

However, Luo Sheng didn't really pay attention to anything. He was still very concerned about the development of Tik-Tok.

"The North American market data shows that Tik-Tok currently has 30 million monthly active users in North America, 60% of which are between 16 and 24 years old, and 11% of North American Internet users have used Tik-Tok. Among Internet users, this proportion has risen to about 52%."

The voice of her speech was a slightly agitated girly voice. It was Xiaona. While she was expressing it, she also listed a lot of data on the display screen. At this moment, Luo Sheng was standing in front of the big screen on the wall of the office.

"It seems that Tik-Tok has gradually become a new social kingdom where overseas ‘post-waves’ enjoy themselves." Luo Sheng couldn’t help laughing while looking at the series of data processed by Xiaona’s statistical analysis.

If it weren't for taking the ByteDance early, with Tik-Tok's current development momentum, Luo Sheng would not be as relaxed as it is now.

Xiaona: "Houlang? Is analyzing the meaning of the word."

Luo Sheng: "Don't understand, this word is not popular yet."

Xiaona: "I can't understand."

Luo Sheng looked at the information on the panel and muttered to himself: "If Tik-Tok can faintly rewrite the Internet's business landscape, the reason is that Zhang Yiming also knows the mystery of ‘post-wave economics’..."

If social platforms such as BV Video Network and Blue Space are holy places for the so-called elites to show their superior life, there is a consumption culture of showing off their wealth.

Then, Tik-Tok is undoubtedly focusing on grassroots culture and sinking youth groups.

Judging from the data of the North American market alone, it has been able to explain this problem.

But what's interesting is that even now, since the rise of Tik-Tok, it is still at the bottom of the chain of contempt by mainstream public opinion and is not looked down upon by the North American middle class.

But in the near future, to be precise, beginning in the second half of this year, this situation has begun to undergo some subtle changes.

Open the Tik-Tok software application, in addition to the laughing faces full of pimples, there are also office workers in the office building. This phenomenon all indicates that the Tik-Tok user circle has gone "out of the circle" to teenagers. Trends outside.

"In the Internet social sector, what other important layouts does Lao Zhang have this year?" Luo Sheng retracted his gaze from the panel on the wall, turned around and poured himself a glass of water.

When he turned his back, the panel data behind him quickly listed new information under Xiaona's debugging, and explained:

"In China, the management of Bluestar Technology has invested heavily in the'Bilibili' video website that went public on the Nasdaq in March this year. On May 8 this year, Bluestar Technology once again conducted up to 500 million yuan for the company. Strategic investment in US dollars, currently with a 26.1% shareholding ratio, is the company’s largest shareholder, and the second largest shareholder is the company’s founder, with a 15% shareholding ratio."

Hearing Xiaona’s response, Luo Sheng took the water cup back to the panel and scanned the information on the panel, nodded, “Lao Zhang is still okay. The company will take care of it. It is generally reassuring, and I can too. Continue to make new things."

Today, the "B Station" IPO is listed, and the current market value is 6.2 billion US dollars. Compared with the volume of Bluestar Technology, it is not enough for the opening time of the day to fluctuate. It may be a few minutes of stock price fluctuations and a B station is gone.

But this video network, which focuses on the "Second Yuan" community culture, has the vitality that makes many Internet giants extremely eye-catching-a young user group.

Even Bluestar Technology is not greedy at this point.

Nowadays, the number of users at station B is already very large, and a **** road has been smashed under the giant bluestar video. Today, the monthly active users have reached 98 million, and the monthly active users on the mobile terminal have exceeded 100 million, an increase of 40. %about.

In other words, visiting station B has become a daily routine for most young people aged 16 to 24 in China. There are regular traffic entering the platform every day, which can ensure that the platform has a good degree of activity.

Young and highly loyal users are the biggest capital of station B, and they are also the biggest source of confidence for investors when telling stories. Just like the Bluestar video ten years ago, station B will accompany the growth of a new generation of young people with heart. , Station B is silently caring like a gardener while looking forward to the harvest scene ten years later.

These young people may not have much value to develop now, but they will bring unimaginable returns to Station B when they grow up ten years later, just like the basics of the domestic version of Bluestar Video and the international version of BV Video Network. Same as disk users.

And this is the reason why Station B is now favored by major Internet giants such as Bluestar Technology. Station B has not only received investment from Bluestar Technology, but the top five major shareholders in it include Tengxun (3.2%) , Ali (4.2%), Sony (2.2%).

In terms of voting rights, the founder takes the lead with 45% of the voting rights, the third largest shareholder with 8.8% of the shares, the president of Station B, has 26.3% of the voting rights, and Bluestar Technology holds 10.2% of the voting rights, but has The one-vote veto is the only shareholder with this authority.

No founder will easily share the big killer of a veto power, but Bluestar Technology is not only the first strategic investor to invest in Station B, it not only has the funds that Station B lacks, but more importantly, it is profound For the content copyright pool of China, Station B will face this problem sooner or later, so Bluestar Technology cannot be bypassed.

At that time, many people laughed at Luo Sheng’s costly construction of a copyright pool. Today, no one has jumped out of the DISS issue. Instead, they “lick” to fly, boasting of Luo Sheng’s strategic forward-looking ten years ago. Yunyun and so on.

Today's B station is backed by Bluestar Technology, and enjoys huge dividends in the content copyright, which is one of the important factors in granting a veto.

Luo Sheng was relieved after reading some of Zhang Bowen's operational ideas and layout. He knew where the problems currently facing Bluestar Technology were and was actively seeking changes.

Today's Bluestar Technology is facing a new "middle-age crisis". The young people who were addicted to the blue space and post bars are now parents. The domestic post-zeros do not want to share WeChat with their parents, and will block the circle of friends from their elders. , More of it is the same as turning to the "old antique" QQ, but it gives QQ new vitality.

This is not only domestic, but also foreign. North American teenagers do not like to stay on the same social platform with their parents. This is also an important factor that Tik-Tok can quickly rise to and cannot ignore.

The previous fifteen years have passed has become today's global social hegemon, Bluestar Technology, with a market value of US$2.5 trillion.

The core problem of Bluestar Technology, which is facing a "mid-age crisis", is to capture the young group who represents the future after zero and zero, which will determine the future for the next 15 years.

"It's all closed."

Luo Sheng watched for a while and then stopped paying attention to Bluestar Technology. Both domestic and overseas arrangements have been made plainly.

Douyin Tik-Tok has long been in the bag. Station B also has the tentacles of Bluestar Technology. The social empire of Bluestar Technology is still no one can threaten. As for Zhang Bowen and Zhang Yiming’s fight, Luo Sheng chose to secretly It's good to watch the excitement.

The next focus is on the French Riviera.
