Winning the new financial era

Chapter 226 PUBG Mobile
"This is my successor, Ryan, who was previously Senior Director of Operations at Facebook."

Ma Jun introduced to Zhang Yida the blonde, blue-eyed, 30-year-old Caucasian man in front of him.

Zhang Yida shook hands with Rui En, and said with a smile, "Thank you for the filming team you sent here, they helped me a lot."

Ryan also smiled and said, "If I know there is a big meal to eat, then I will follow along to eat."

After several people were seated in the office, Zhang Yida asked Ma Jun, "Have you considered it? Are you really going to Europe?"

Ma Jun nodded and said, "Musical.ly has more than 2000 million registered users, basically accounting for 6% of the US population.

Growth has been slow.Just going to fight in Europe. "

"I originally wanted to transfer you back to China." Zhang Yida sighed, and said again: "Since you have made the decision to go to Europe, I will support you. A good man has ambitions everywhere!"

"Ma, I support you too. You will definitely be able to do something in Europe."

Zhang Yida took a look at Rui En and thought, of course you support him, if he doesn't leave, who will make room for you.

However, it is always a good thing for Ma Jun to explore the European market.

"Is Musical.ly still primarily used by teenagers?"

Faced with Zhang Yida's question, Ryan nodded and said, "It's mainly teenagers aged 12-18. There are also users of other age groups, but the proportion is much lower."

Zhang Yida frowned, Musical.ly can no longer be labeled.Otherwise, it will be difficult to change the tonality later.

How many teenagers are there?The proportion is too small, and the commercial liquidity is also poor.

"Have you guys thought of some way to reach out to other age groups?"

Ryan replied: "Thinking about it, but the effect is not ideal."

"However, recently, some famous stars are also stationed in our Musical.ly." Ryan said again.

"It's pretty good. However, our focus is still on discovering grassroots stars." Zhang Yida knows that the so-called star effect is just that, and the focus of the short video is to create "Internet celebrities".

"I know this. There are already several stars with millions of fans on our platform, 16-year-old Baby Ariel, 15-year-old Jacob Sartorius, and 13-year-old boy Sartorius.

Beckham's son, 12-year-old Cruz Jr., is also a loyal fan of our platform. A few days ago, he asked his father to shoot a short video together. "

When Zhang Yida heard about these ages, his head grew too big.You guys have a lot of fun, I'm not good at making money.

"Have you ever thought about adding a live broadcast function to the platform?" Zhang Yida asked.

"Think about it, but there are already many live broadcast platforms in the United States, and we don't have much advantage."

Hearing what Ryan said, Zhang Yida turned his attention to Ma Jun, who said, "I think this feature can be launched to improve our user retention time."

"The longer the user retention time, the easier it is to realize business.

However, the United States is different from China. Basically, you can’t get big rewards for live broadcasting and makeup.

Americans like to watch those who are more capable, perform acrobatics, and kill themselves, and they are very popular.

We can't focus on monetization on live broadcast rewards, other things like bringing goods, but advertising is fine. "

After staying in the US for so long, Ma Jun obviously has some understanding of the live broadcast entertainment market in the US, so he analyzed it for Zhang Yida at this time.

"Then let's add a live broadcast function! It doesn't matter if you give a reward or not, the main thing is to see if you can cut into other age groups."

Seeing that Zhang Yida had spoken, Rui En said, "Okay, then we will start research and development."

"By the way, there are also content standards that must be strictly reviewed. Especially since most of our customers are teenagers, you must block anything that is deadly or sexual."

Zhang Yida is very aware of how musical.ly and Tiktok were made things difficult by the governments of various countries in his previous life. One is privacy and the other is sex.

After finishing the conversation and returning to the hotel, Zhang Yida met with Ma Jun alone, and he said to the latter, "What kind of support do you need to go to Europe this time?"

"Well... let's transfer a team from China! In addition, some funds need to be provided."

Zhang Yida nodded and said, "Okay, these are all fine."

"Where is the first stop?" Zhang Yida asked again.

"Let's go to Britain! The political situation should be more stable, and France is afraid to go." Ma Jun laughed.

Zhang Yida also knew that France was not peaceful, so he smiled and said, "All right! You should pay more attention to safety."

"Come on! I've noticed your hard work, and options are not a problem." Zhang Yida patted Ma Jun on the shoulder and said.

Ma Jun also smiled knowingly. Although he sold Musical.ly at a loss, he still had a chance to get the options.

In particular, DouTV in China has begun to exert its strength, and it has surpassed the number of overseas users.

No matter what he said about this big tree, he would cling to it tightly.

……

Yeoksam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea.

Blue Hole Studio.

Zhang Yida was talking with the Irishman Braden. Zhang Yida said: "I have great trust in your ability, Mr. Braden. I hope that under your leadership, Blue Hole will make a game that shocks the world."

"It may not be able to shock the world, but it is definitely above the level. This game will definitely be my most satisfying work."

Brydon's character is still very proud. Even though he knows that Zhang Yida is the big boss behind the Blue Hole, he still looks bullish.

Zhang Yida was not angry either. Perhaps this is his daily expression. He smiled and said, "This game must be as perfect as possible. If you lack research and development funds, you can just ask the higher authorities for approval."

"With all due respect, Mr. Zhang, you seem to have never started a game business in China!"

Zhang Yida didn't know what he meant by this sentence, but Brydon continued to say: "I mean the game is developed, we want to enter the Chinese market, what can you do?"

"Penguin, he is one of the major shareholders of our company. At the same time, it is also the largest social software company in China."

Braden had heard about Penguin and nodded: "Penguin is indeed a good partner."

"Brydon, you don't have to worry, after the game is developed, I will naturally find resources to promote it.

What you need to worry about is to develop PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds as soon as possible.

Some time ago, I injected another $5000 million into the company.You don't have to worry about funds, you just worry about how to make the game well! "

Zhang Yida also knew that there were a lot of bugs in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds in his previous life, and the map content was also poor.So in this life, he has been trying to avoid the same problem from happening again.

In addition to the $2.5 million paid for the acquisition of Blue Hole, another $5000 million was injected some time ago.

Investing so much money, in addition to wanting to get excess returns, is also preparing content for Douyin.

After continuing to chat with Braden for a few more words, Braden invited Zhang Yida to experience the unfinished game.

Arriving in a room, Zhang Yida and He Qingxuan took the test mobile phone that Braden handed them, ready to play a game of eating chicken.

In addition, Brydon also found them a few company employees as sparring partners.

Several Kimchi Country employees looked very respectful, "Smitha" said a lot, but Zhang Yida didn't understand a word.

The Korean translator next to him said to Zhang Yida: "They said that they were very happy to play games with you, the president. They also said that the president is a well-known youth entrepreneurial hero, and they admire you very much."

Zhang Yida looked at the excited young men with small eyes and single eyelids, and said to the translator, "Tell them. They are also very good. I hope they will work hard and the company will develop well, and they will not be treated badly."

Then the translator "Smitha" said a few words to several employees, and several Korean guys flushed with excitement.

They think that if they can play a game with the young entrepreneurial heroes on the Forbes list, they will have the capital to go out and brag in the future.

Looking at these young men, Zhang Yida also felt quite sad.South Korea has a clear hierarchy from top to bottom, and conglomerates control the channels for class advancement.

Many people spend their whole lives in the middle class.

Perhaps in their view, it is an extremely honorable thing to be able to play a game with their president.

Entering the game, Zhang Yida looked at the familiar interface from his previous life, and felt that this game should be completed soon, and the details might be better than his previous life.

Next, take a plane and skydive.

Zhang Yida manipulated the characters on his phone and began to go into each room to collect resources.

Since there were only a few people, Zhang Yida wandered around for more than ten minutes without meeting anyone.

As the poisonous circle gradually shrunk, Zhang Yida's game characters ran.

With a sudden "bang", Zhang Yida ended the game.

He was headshot by an employee with AWM...

As for He Qingxuan, when running the poison, she was poisoned to death because she was not familiar with the operation and couldn't tell the direction...

The Korean employee who shot Zhang Yida in the head was a little flustered, and quickly stood up and bowed to Zhang Yida in apology.

The translator next to him said: "Mr. Zhang, he said that he is sorry, but he didn't know that the person just now was you."

Although Zhang Yida was very angry, he died without firing a single shot.But still pretending to be generous, he waved his hand and said to the translator: "Tell him that he has good game skills, and I admire him very much."

Zhang Yida was a little unconvinced, and asked them to play a few more games.

These few have improved, and it took a few counterattacks before they died.

Zhang Yida threw the test phone aside and covered his forehead, hey, I'm so hard!
Forget it, stop playing.

On the contrary, He Qingxuan was very interested and clamored to play a few more games.

Zhang Yida also noticed that this game should still be popular with female compatriots like it did in the previous life.

Zhang Yida gave Bradden a thumbs up and said, "The game is great. I like it very much."

Seeing Zhang Yida being so good, Brendan also praised: "Boss, your game skills are also good."

There was no way to chat today, so Zhang Yida talked about other topics: "The picture quality is a bit blurry! Can you make it more high-definition!"

"Okay! You need to pay more!" Braden was eager to do so. In his opinion, these Korean guys were too stingy.

Then he pestered Zhang Yida for a long time, listing various technical terms.

Zhang Yida didn't understand a word, so he called the Korean management over and had a meeting together.

Zhang Yida asked the Korean executives for their opinions. Their original intention was to save costs, and the image quality was just a little bit worse, which is not a big problem.

But Zhang Yida insisted on increasing investment, and they had no reason to object, anyway, they only had some management options left in the company.

Since Zhang Yida doesn't care about money, let him do it!I don't bother to talk anymore.

So Zhang Yida decided to ask them to invest more money to improve the quality of the picture quality.

After the meeting, Braden gave Zhang Yida a thumbs up and said, "Boss, although you don't understand games, you must be a good boss."
