Entertainment: I just want to be the boss behind the scenes

Chapter 264 Qinyuanchun

Listening to the cheerful and magical brainwashing music on TV, Meng Bai almost choked on his own saliva.

"What is this?"

"It's Pinduoduo's ad." Li Qin explained, "It's everywhere these days. Haven't you heard of it?"

“I really haven’t noticed it.”

Meng Bai touched his eyebrows. In the past few months, he had been busy with the release of movies and the start of filming of new dramas, so he really hadn't paid much attention to these things.

but……

"Teacher Li, do you also use Pinduoduo?"

"I don't use it, but my mom does."

Li Qin said helplessly: "I clearly told her to buy authentic and expensive products, but she didn't listen. She sent me links every day and asked me to help her 'bargain' or something."

When this was mentioned, Tang Yixin and Liu Mengmeng next to them also started to complain.

"My dad does the same thing. He sends me emails every day. I said I don't have the software, and he said that since I'm a new user, the discount is even bigger."

"Yeah, yeah, there's also the red envelope for group buying. It's only 500 yuan, and they ask me to help them get people together every day. I said I would give it to you directly, but they didn't want it."

Obviously, several people have complaints about this e-commerce software that allows their parents to "harass" their WeChat friends in various ways.

Listening to several people's complaints, Meng Bai, who was sitting aside, slowly summed up a few judgments.

First, Huang Zheng is worthy of being Duan Yongping’s student. The advertising promotion method is exactly the same as that of BBK and Subor back then.

Second, the $1.1 million Series B financing led by Tencent was not invested in vain. These girls are from Jiangsu, Sichuan, and Northeast China, which shows that Pinduoduo's scope has gone beyond Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai and is heading across the country.

Third, the sentence I mentioned when chatting with Huang Zheng, "Young people in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou use JD.com and Tmall, while their parents in their hometown send them Pinduoduo links", is now perfectly presented.

When Meng Bai called Huang Zheng not long ago, he heard the other party mention that Pinduoduo's total number of users now exceeds 1.2 million.

Although there is still a gap compared to Taobao's 5.2 million and JD.com's 2.7 million, it has surpassed other e-commerce platforms such as Vipshop.

In other words, Pinduoduo, which was established just one year ago, has become the third largest e-commerce platform in China.

According to the "2016 China Mobile Internet Industry Development Half-Year Analysis Report" released by the mobile Internet big data monitoring platform TrustData not long ago, Pinduoduo's current valuation has reached US$30 billion.

After a round of dilution, Meng Bai's shares are now about 8%, or US$2.4 million.

Compared to the initial 500 million US dollars, it has increased 48 times in just one year, and this is just the beginning.

As expected, celebrities, movies and TV shows are just for fun. If you really want to see the myth of wealth, you have to go to the Internet.

But then again, valuation is just valuation after all. Until the company goes public and cashes out, it will always be just “wealth on paper.”

Regardless of whether it is the A-share market or the US stock market, if you want to go public you must provide at least three years of profit reports.

In other words, even if Pinduoduo can complete its listing on time, it will take at least two years.

In addition, there is a lock-up period of one to half a year after listing, which means it will take until 2020.

Okay, it’s just a thought.

Eat your food bite by bite and walk your road step by step.

The most important thing at the moment is to take advantage of such a good opportunity today to capture Teacher Li.

A few young people were playing and fooling around, and didn't have lunch until three in the afternoon.

After dinner, it was game time. The three girls and Zhang Ruoyun started a mahjong game together.

Meng Bai, the "semi-newbie", sat behind Li Qin at first and gave her random advice.

After causing the girl to suffer a heavy loss, she was finally "gently" persuaded to leave.

Meng Bai, who was driven away, smiled and didn't care. He pulled Bai Yu to test the PS4 that Zhang Ruoyun brought.

It was not until around eight or nine in the evening, when it was getting dark, that we finally decided to call it a day.

"Do you want me to help you clean up?" Zhang Ruoyun asked.

"No need, the housekeeping will come to clean up tomorrow." Meng Bai patted his shoulder and said, "If you really want to help your buddy, take your woman away quickly."

Zhang Ruoyun glanced at Li Qin and Tang Yixin, who were still showing their sisterly love, and gave Meng Bai a look that said "I understand".

Then he walked over, put his arm around Tang Yixin and said, "Let's go, it's time to go home."

"Ok."

Tang Yixin said goodbye to Li Qin with some reluctance, then looked at Meng Bai and said, "Teacher Meng, then our Qinqin is in your hands."

"Hey, hey, what do you mean by entrusting me to him?" Li Qin shouted from the side.

Meng Bai said naturally: "Don't worry, just leave it to me."

"Hey, don't just admit it without saying anything!"

After seeing them off, Meng Bai turned around and saw Li Qin standing in front of the French window on the first floor, looking restless.

"Well, I..." "Would you like to sit in the yard for a while and enjoy the cool air?"

Meng Bai interrupted the other party.

Li Qin was stunned for a moment, then responded softly.

The two men came to the middle of the yard, Meng Bai folded up the parasol, and then each of them sat on a lounge chair.

In northern Beijing in September, the nights are already a little chilly, but for young people, this cool temperature is just right.

The Mengbai villa area is next to Chaoyang Park and there are no central buildings around it, so it is quiet and full of nature.

"There are so many stars tonight." Li Qin sighed as she looked at the sky.

"There are always so many stars, but the city lights are too bright to see them."

Meng Bai's voice was quiet and distant.

Li Qin turned her head and looked at him: "What are you thinking about?"

"I was thinking about the first time we met." Meng Bai said, "At that time, you called me a liar right away, and I thought you were going to scam me."

Hearing him mention the scene of their first meeting, Li Qin couldn't help but reminisce.

"Who told you to cheat me with that liar?"

"Hey, I must emphasize this point again. Those words were said by that 'Producer Lin' at the time. I just didn't refute him."

"Tsk, I won't hold you responsible now." Li Qin snorted, "It's a good thing you still remember the last name of that liar."

"Without him, I wouldn't have had the chance to meet Teacher Li. Of course, I was deeply impressed."

Li Qin glanced at him and saw that he had a natural look on his face, so she couldn't help but smile.

"By the way, did the police come looking for you later?"

"I met him twice two years ago and talked about the progress of the case." Meng Bai said, "They said that the scammer went to northern Myanmar, and then there was no news."

"Forget it. What's the use of catching him? He must have spent all the money he cheated from me."

Li Qin couldn't help laughing and said, "We were both so miserable at that time. We were all out of money."

After saying this, she couldn't help but feel a little emotional again.

Who would have thought that the "newbie screenwriter" who had to rely on various means to submit a script at that time has now become the boss of a leading company in the domestic film and television industry.

Even now, when I’m auditioning for roles, I still need his help.

"By the way, I passed the audition for the Princess Agents role I told you about before."

Meng Bai glanced at her and said with a smile on his face, "If Teacher Li hadn't told me, I would have forgotten about it. It seems that there is still an account interest that has not been calculated."

As he said that, he stood up, walked to Li Qin, leaned over and trapped her in the chair.

Looking at the man so close and his fiery gaze, Li Qin blushed and whispered, "It's getting late. Why don't you take me home?"

"Ha, girl, you don't seem to understand the situation yet!"

Meng Bai stared at her with burning eyes: "This is my house, do you think you can get out?"

As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed Li Qin's legs and armpits, and lifted her up like a princess.

"what!"

Li Qin exclaimed, and subconsciously leaned close to Meng Bai's arms, hugging his neck tightly with both hands.

"Tsk, thank you Mr. Li for your cooperation."

"Nonsense, I didn't."

As Li Qin spoke, she kicked her two white and tender legs twice as a symbolic resistance.

Meng Bai carried the girl all the way to the bedroom upstairs and put her on the bed.

"Wait, wait a minute, I haven't showered yet."

"It doesn't matter. I'll have to wash it later anyway."

"Um... the curtains aren't closed yet."

"There are no high-rise buildings within a radius of more than ten kilometers around here, so don't worry."

"Meng, Meng Bai...I'm a little nervous."

"Don't be afraid, just follow me."

"Wait, I...Ah!"

"..."

Someone must be rubbing the heart of the flower, dizzy like a delicate face. A trace of bright moon in the old spring night is just like a soft chest and a wet face, which never fades.
