Force me to be reborn, right?

Chapter 628 Give Mr. Lei a Shock

In the office, Xu Dalai opened his mouth and hesitated several times to speak.

He is not a fool, so he naturally knows how great the benefits will be if he becomes a built-in APP of Mr. Lei's mobile phone with its current sales momentum!

Nowadays, smartphones are becoming increasingly popular.

The Xiaomi phone is the first smartphone for many people.

What does this represent?
This means these people are users of brand new smartphone apps!
It is the object that many APPs want to strive for!

If Youqu can really become a built-in APP in a certain Xiaomi mobile phone, it means that the number of registered users on the platform will increase by tens of millions every year, which is very likely.

More importantly, Cheng Zhu is very clear about how high the user retention rate of Youqu is.

Back then, the data of Douyin was extremely terrifying.

If people don't like to play it, how can this thing become popular?
This means that as long as the user base is large, it can take off right away!

In a few days, it will be the new year.

Cheng Zhu will end the cold start phase of Youqu at the end of this year.

Starting from New Year's Day, he will make large-scale external investments to promote Youqu.

We will put more efforts in marketing and spend money on advertising.

But the effect they can provide is probably not much better than if they are built directly into the phone!
Xu Dalai looked at Cheng Zhu at this moment, and after hesitating for a while, he suddenly smiled.

"Mr. Cheng, it seems you did this on purpose. You just want everyone to sit down and discuss the feasibility of this matter, right?" At this point, the CEO of Shunwei Capital could naturally see through his intentions.

No wonder, no wonder they only gave us the same share as ByteDance at the beginning, just to make us dissatisfied, and then sit down and talk slowly!
Upon hearing this, Cheng Zhu admitted it directly and openly, not even bothering to pretend.

"Yes, it's because we want to achieve deeper cooperation." He smiled.

Xu Dalai felt that the young man in front of him had intentions and plans that were beyond his expectations.

And he doesn't seem to mind revealing his ambitions and desires.

He has a very generous attitude and looks very enterprising.

People like them who are engaged in investment like to get to know others deeply.

After all, as the saying goes, investment is often made in people.

In fact, Xu Dalai didn't like people who were too timid.

It is despised if the boss of a startup company does not have some initiative and ambition, and does not know how to fight for himself and the company.

But there is a problem here.

Xu Dalai looked at Cheng Zhu and said seriously, "I wonder if Mr. Cheng has any specific knowledge of Shunwei's investment projects. We have also invested in the short video APP [Block Hand]."

Cheng Zhuyi knew what he wanted to express as soon as he heard it.

Apps like [Block Hand], [UC Browser], [Zhihu], etc. are often pre-installed on Xiaomi mobile phones.

The number of pre-installed apps on a certain Xiaomi phone is relatively high.

When you buy a new phone and turn it on, you will find that a large number of apps are pre-installed on it.

Among them, some you may continue to use, while others may be ruthlessly deleted by you.

Xu Dalai was implying a direct competitive relationship between [Youqu] and [Kuai Shou].

"Mr. Xu must have done his homework on Youqu. You can definitely see that our positioning is completely different from that of Kuaishou. We are just both in the short video track."

"Even our current user positioning is different," Cheng Zhu began to talk, and spoke for three or four minutes in one breath.

Xu Dalai nodded repeatedly, and finally said, "I will convey this matter on your behalf."

After that, he began to ask: "Then what is the exact share that Mr. Cheng can give us?"

Cheng Zhu's answer instantly made Xu Dalai very excited!

"The limit in my mind is to be a little bit higher than RedStone Capital," said Cheng Zhu.

About an hour later, Xu Dalai left Youqu headquarters.

He and Cheng Zhu chatted for such a long time that he admired this young man more and more.

However, he felt that Cheng Zhu was a little arrogant.

In other words, his expectations for Youqu's future are a bit unbelievable.

"He actually wants to become one of the world's top unicorns." Xu Dalai smiled.

He was indeed optimistic about Youqu, but not to this extent.

"This is at least on par with Penguin and Alibaba." Xu Dalai thought.

Today, there are already several giants standing in the Internet industry.

It is almost impossible to break through the siege under the overlooking and gaze of the giants and reach the same height as them.

"But it's normal, we are young people!" Xu Dalai didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

For many truly ambitious people at this stage, their dream is not to "start a profitable company", but often to "start a great company"!
Yes, it is great!

For him, after today's close contact, he has a deeper understanding of Cheng Zhu's personal abilities.

This young man has many qualities that others do not have.

“And he seems to be very forward-thinking.”

“So good that it makes me feel a little weird”

Bao Fan, Wang Xin, Zhang Tao, Zhang Xuhao and others said: +1!

Foresight is often one of the greatest advantages of those who are reborn!

As of now, Xu Dalai is not sure whether President Lei will agree to Cheng Zhu's request.

But he thinks the possibility is still relatively high.

"The conditions he offered are too tempting." "This means that he will let Shunwei Capital lead the investment in this round of financing!"

Xu Dalai will stay in Hangzhou for a day today. After returning to the hotel, he called Lei Jun immediately to explain the situation.

Not long after, the call was connected, and Lei Jun's Mandarin with his own accent came through the phone.

"Hey, Dalai."

"Mr. Lei, let me tell you in detail about my meeting with Cheng Zhu today," Xu Dalai began his statement.

When he mentioned that Cheng Zhu wanted to make Youqu a pre-installed application on a certain Xiaomi mobile phone, the person on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned.

"Pre-installed?" Lei Jun smiled.

"The young man is quite interesting!" said Mr. Lei.

Based on Xu Da's understanding of him, he had already guessed something.

He immediately asked, "Boss Lei, you didn't plan to make Youqu a pre-installed application after investing in it, did you?"

"Yes, that's exactly what I planned." Reeves replied with a smile.

"Huh?" Now it was Xu Da's turn to be confused.

In fact, if Cheng Zhu knew this, he would also be confused.

Shit, it turns out he already wanted to give me the conditions I had always wanted to fight for?
Damn it, why am I doing this?
Lei Jun expressed his true thoughts: "For my investment in Youqu, I personally look forward to the future rate of return."

"I took a look at some background data of our app store."

“I am extremely optimistic about Youqu.”

“I personally think that within five years, even if we only participate in this round of financing, the future return multiple will be at least 50 times, or even more than times!”

After hearing this, Xu Dalai was even more shocked.

Because this means that Mr. Lei is optimistic about not only this project, but also Cheng Zhu!

If the company founder is not capable, a project, no matter how good it is, may fail.

Within five years, just participating in this round of financing, the return multiple is as high as a hundred times. What the hell does that mean?
To what extent must this valuation skyrocket!

However, he also knew very well that Mr. Lei's investment vision had always been excellent.

He has made many investments like this with a hundredfold return!

In the future, whether Lei Jun can become the legendary "Cash King of Beijing" will also have a lot to do with the many investments he personally participated in.

"But, I actually have a question about this cooperation," Mr. Lei said on the phone.

"what?"

"You can't answer this question for me. I'll call Cheng Zhu later. If there is no problem with this matter, then just pre-install it!" He said it very straightforwardly!

More than half an hour later, Cheng Zhu, who was chatting with Zhang Sixing in the office, suddenly received a ring from his cell phone.

He picked up the phone and immediately heard that extremely familiar voice with an accent.

Well, the call came from Mr. Lei, a famous singer.

Famous song: "Are You Ok".

This song is already very popular in the country.

"Hello, Mr. Cheng, it's me, Lei Jun," he said.

"Mr. Lei, hello, hello."

Cheng Zhu stood up directly, put one hand in his pocket, then walked to the floor-to-ceiling window to make a phone call, leaving Zhang Sixing with a handsome back view.

As soon as Zhang Sixing heard that extremely famous name in their programmer community, he instantly became extremely alert.

There's nothing we can do about it. That's Lei Jun, a man whose code he wrote in college could be included in textbooks.

"Can Cheng Zhu already chat and laugh with President Lei?" Zhang Sixing was surprised!

Although he is honest, dull and boring, it doesn't mean that he won't be shocked.

Cheng Zhu put his left hand in his pocket and held his cell phone in his right hand, chatting happily. Neither of them got straight to the point, but exchanged a few pleasantries.

But Lei Jun’s time is precious after all, and Xiaomi mobile phone is currently in the most difficult period, which was later called the darkest hour, so he is actually very busy.

Mr. Lei quickly said, "Mr. Cheng, I want to ask you a question."

"it is good."

“[Youqu] has some similarities with the overseas short video app [Musical.ly]. If nothing unexpected happens, as Youqu becomes more and more popular next year, there will be more and more voices like this.”

Lei Jun continued: "Musical.ly was founded by Zhu Jun and Yang Luyu in the United States, much earlier than Youqu."

"Although I personally think that Youqu is more complete and better than it, and is more in line with the actual situation in China, I think that because of this time issue, Youqu will also suffer a lot of attacks, or be accused of plagiarism."

"Have you ever prepared for this?" he asked.

Cheng Zhu recalled and vaguely remembered that this period seemed to be the period when Lei’s mobile phones were “ganged up on” by a number of friendly competitors.

It can be said that the vast majority of well-known competitors are suing Xiaomi mobile phones.

Perhaps because of his personal situation, he was very curious about what Cheng Zhu would do.

At this moment, Cheng Zhu was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

The office building is very tall and he can overlook the surrounding scenery.

He just looked down at all this and said something that made Lei Jun stunned for a moment. It was completely unexpected.

"Easy, just buy it when the discussion is the loudest!"

"Just spend the money and buy it out!"

"By the way, we can complete the international layout of [Youqu] in the short video track! Kill two birds with one stone!" Cheng Zhu said loudly!
