Global Monopoly of Technology

Luo Sheng didn't know the fact that Zhang Bowen came to Yao Jianhong to pour out the bitter water. The competition in the industry is hot right now, and it is most appropriate to push Lao Zhang to the front.

Zhang Baobao is a little wronged now, and he will be compensated with more wages in the future.

However, Luo Sheng didn't really pay attention to anything, and he was quite concerned about the development of Tik-Tok.

"North American market data shows that Tik-Tok currently has 30 million monthly active users in North America, of which 60% of the user group is between the ages of 16 and 24, and 11% of North American Internet users have used Tik-Tok. Among Internet users, that percentage rose to around 52 percent."

Her voice was a girly voice that was a little exciting, but it was Xiaona. While she was speaking, 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 in the office.

"It seems that Tik-Tok has gradually become a new social kingdom that overseas 'post-wavers' love to enjoy." Luo Sheng couldn't help laughing when he looked at a series of data processed by Xiaona's statistical analysis.

If ByteDance hadn't been won early, with the current development momentum of Tik-Tok, Luo Sheng would not be as easy as it is now.

Xiaona: "Houlang? The meaning of the word is being analyzed."

Luo Sheng: "Don't explain it, this word isn't popular yet."

Xiaona: "I can't understand."

Luo Sheng looked at the information on the panel and said to himself: "If you say that Tik-Tok has the power to rewrite the business landscape of the Internet, the reason is that Zhang Yiming also knows the secrets of 'Houlang Economics'..."

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

Then, Tik-Tok undoubtedly focuses on grassroots culture and sinks the youth group.

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

But what is interesting is that since the rise of Tik-Tok, even now, it is still at the bottom of the mainstream public opinion contempt chain and is despised by the North American middle class.

But in the near future, specifically the second half of this year,

The situation is starting to change slightly.

Open the Tik-Tok software application, in addition to the face full of pimples, there are also office workers in the office building. This phenomenon all shows that the user circle of Tik-Tok has embarked on the "out of the circle" to teenagers. outside trends.

"In the social networking section of the Internet, what other important layouts does Lao Zhang have this year?" Luo Sheng looked away from the panel on the wall and turned to pour 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:

"Domestic, the management of Bluestar Technology this year focused on investing in the 'Bilibili' video website, which was listed on Nasdaq in March. The US dollar strategic investment is currently the company's largest shareholder with a 26.1% stake, and the second largest shareholder is the company's founder, with a 15% stake."

Hearing Xiaona's response, Luo Sheng returned to the front panel with the water cup and glanced at the information above, nodded and said, "Old Zhang is still ok, the company will be taken care of by him, which is generally reassuring, so can I. Keep tinkering with new things."

Today, the "Bilibili" 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 to fluctuate every day at the opening time. It may be that a few minutes of stock price fluctuations are gone in one station B.

However, this video website, which focuses on the "Second Yuan" community culture, has the vitality that many Internet giants are very envious of - a young user group.

Even Bluestar Technology would be greedy for this.

Today, the users of Station B are already very large, and they are stunned to fight a bloody road under the behemoth of Bluestar Video. Today, the monthly active users have reached 98 million, and the monthly active users of the mobile terminal have exceeded 100 million, a year-on-year increase of 40%. «out.

In other words, visiting station B has become the daily routine of most young people between the ages of 16 and 24 in China. There is a fixed amount of traffic entering the platform every day, which can ensure that the platform has a good level of activity.

Young and highly loyal users are the biggest capital of Bilibili, and it is also the biggest confidence for investors to tell stories. Just like the Blue Star video ten years ago, Bilibili will accompany the growth of a new generation of young people. , Station B is silently caring like a gardener, and at the same time looking forward to the harvest picture ten years later.

These young people may have little value to develop now, but ten years later, they will bring unimaginable returns to station B when they grow up, just like today's domestic version of Bluestar Video and international version of BV Video Network disk users.

And this is 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 also Teng Xun (3.2%) among the top five major shareholders. , Ali (4.2%), Sony (2.2%).

In terms of voting rights, the founder holds the top spot 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 One-vote veto power, and the only shareholder with this power.

No founder will easily share the big killer of one-vote veto power, but Bluestar Technology is not only the first strategic investor to invest in Bilibili, not only does it have the funds that Bilibili lacks, but more importantly, it has profound The content copyright pool of Bilibili will face this problem sooner or later if it is to become bigger, then Bluestar Technology cannot be avoided.

Back then, many people laughed at Luo Sheng's high cost of establishing a copyright pool. Today, no one has jumped out of the DISS issue. Instead, they are "licking" up and boasting about Luo Sheng's strategic forward-looking ten years ago. Cloud and so on.

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

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

Today's Bluestar Technology is facing a new "mid-life crisis". The young people who were addicted to blue space and posted bars are now parents. The post-00s in China do not want to share WeChat with their parents, and they will block the circle of friends for their elders when they use it. , and more of it turned to "old antique" QQ, but it gave QQ a new vitality.

This is not only at home, but also abroad. Teenagers in North America do not like to stay on the same social platform as their parents. This is also an important factor that cannot be ignored for Tik-Tok's rapid rise.

The first fifteen years have passed, and today's global social leader, Bluestar Technology, has a market value of 2.5 trillion US dollars.

The core problem of Bluestar Technology, which is facing a "mid-life crisis", is to capture the post-zero young people who represent the future, which will determine the future of the next fifteen years.

"It's all closed."

Luo Sheng looked at it for a while and then stopped paying attention to Bluestar Technology. Both domestic and foreign have already arranged it clearly.

Douyin Tik-Tok has long been in the bag, and Station B also has Bluestar Technology’s tentacles extending over it. Bluestar Technology’s social empire is still unthreatening. As for the fight between Zhang Bowen and Zhang Yiming, Luo Sheng chose to covertly. Watch the fun, it's good.

The next focus is the Cote d'Azur.
