Hollywood Starts with Animation

Chapter 221 No share expansion at this stage

???? After inspecting the business of Water World Animation that day, Zhu Ke did not leave Silicon Valley, but went to LinkedIn, which is in the same building as Water World Animation.

???? As of the deadline, LinkedIn has been established for more than a year.

???? From scratch, Zhu Ke personally invested a total of 45 million US dollars in funds, which is not a small amount, at least surpassing 90% of the Internet companies on the market.

???? Of course, the results are also outstanding.

???? Jeff Weiner deserves to be the first hero who brought LinkedIn to glory in the original time and space. Under his leadership, the current LinkedIn company has finally made a breakthrough.

???? There are as many as 11.72 million registered users in the United States;

???? Overseas areas, um, are mainly registered users in Mexico and Canada, and there are also more than 600,000 person-times;

???? According to the report given by the latest issue of "Goldman Sachs Financial Magazine", the LinkedIn Group, which has been established for only 14 months, currently has an estimated market value of US$62,007,000,000.

???? Among thousands of newly established Internet companies less than two years old, LinkedIn ranks sixth in terms of market value.

???? This achievement is enough to overlook a number of Internet companies.

???? Of course, this is excluding Microsoft, IBM, Oracle, Amazon, Yahoo and other Internet giants.

???? After all, the newly established LinkedIn company is really different from them.

???? Well, even in the future it will be very different.

???? "Boss, although the number of our users has increased at present, judging from the daily growth in the past two months, we have already fallen into a bottleneck period. We need to increase our efforts to develop overseas and seek more users. ” suggested CEO Jeff Weiner.

???? However, Zucker shook his head.

???? Number of users!

???? In the American Internet field in the late 1990s, the competition for the number of users was the mainstream of the development of this era!

???? Pull allies, expand shareholders, bank loans......

???? In a word, use the means of constantly burning money to increase the number of users.

???? "Boss, as long as we have more users, we can be more favored by the market."

???? What Jeff Weiner meant inside and outside the words was to let LinkedIn expand its shares and increase its strong shareholder allies.

???? "I don't agree!"

???? Zhu Ke categorically rejected: "Jeff, I understand what you said. But you ignored a major premise!"

???? "What?" Jeff Weiner frowned.

???? Zhu Ke pondered: "Don't you think that the current Internet market, whether it is founders or investors, is too enthusiastic? There is a saying in the far east that flowers are like cooking oil on fire!"

???? "......"

???? Jay...  

Husband Weiner is also considered a high-level intellectual, but please forgive him.

???? He doesn't understand!

???? full of question marks.

???? Zhu Ke said solemnly: "The Internet market is in full swing now, in my opinion, it is undercurrent. The market's expectations for Internet companies are far higher than the actual situation today. A huge financial crisis!"

???? E-Toys Toys, an online toy sales website, its annual turnover is only hundreds of millions of dollars, and its profits are even at a loss, but its market value is as high as nearly 10 billion dollars.

???? is also R-Toys Toys, which is also engaged in toy sales. It is a brick and mortar chain of toy sales. Its annual turnover is as high as 6 billion US dollars, but its market value is only 4.2 billion US dollars, far less than E-Toys Toys.

???? This is obviously extremely unreasonable!

???? Those investment institutions, are they all idiots? !

????Do not!

???? On the contrary,

They are all smart!

???? They don't care what happens in the future, as long as they can make a quick buck, they don't care about the floods in the future. The people who ultimately suffer and bear the losses will always be the ordinary people known as "leeks".

???? "Jeff, this market is so abnormal, so I'd rather LinkedIn develop slowly than see the collapse of LinkedIn when the crisis breaks out!"

???? Zucker was firm.

???? "But, boss, the opportunity is so rare now, if..."

???? Jeff Weiner still wanted to argue, but was interrupted by Zucker.

???? Zhu Ke said solemnly: "I don't care how others expand their shares, how they draw allies, or how quickly they expand overseas. The first thing we need to do is to build our own fundamentals and work hard to cultivate the American market. However, waiting for Timing. Well, like Bezos' Amazon."

???? "Okay." Jeff can only compromise.

???? Bezos's Amazon store, in today's Internet moment, it is a wonderful work!

???? Other Internet companies are all expanding their shares, drawing allies, burning money, and trying to expand their global market strategy. Well, Yahoo is like this;

???? But Amazon is different!

???? "Stabilize the basic market, deeply cultivate the basic market, and maintain a steady increase in the amount of profit while pursuing the growth of the number of users."

???? "A company that can always make a profit is more recognized and welcomed by the market than a hundred loss-making companies."

???? - Jeff Bezos.

???? In 2000, after the outbreak of the Internet crisis, giant Internet companies such as Microsoft, Yahoo, IBM, Oracle, etc., were severely damaged, their market value plummeted, and they suffered heavy losses.

???? But only the Amazon store is different!

???? Its share price though...  

It has also been reduced from 45 yuan per share to less than 2 US dollars, but after the announcement of the financial statements of the new quarter, it is one of the few profitable Internet companies.

???? Since then, Amazon has soared into the sky, becoming the most anticipated and recognized Internet company by the market.

???? It is precisely because of Bezos' business strategy that Amazon has always maintained the company with the highest share price!

???? "Jeff, take a look. A shrewd guy with a bald head like Bei has not vigorously developed overseas markets now, so why are we in a hurry?"

???? Zhu Ke said with a smile: "So it's not that I don't want to pull allies and expand shares now, but I'm not in a hurry right now, I don't need it!"

???? Steady and steady!

???? This time, Zucker is not in a hurry at all!

???? LinkedIn has an estimated market cap of $620.07 million, but it is still not profitable.

???? at a loss!

???? "So, your current priority is to increase the number of users to make LinkedIn profitable as soon as possible and lay a solid foundation." Zhu Ke smiled.

???? "Okay, boss."

???? Jeff Weiner now somewhat agrees with Zucker's view. Of course, it's no use if he doesn't agree.

???? He is not a boss, he is just an executor!

???? Not long after, Zucker left.

???? In the car, Zucker murmured: "It's really not the right time to pull allies, at least before the Internet bubble burst, it's definitely not possible, otherwise it will be finished."

????

???? next day.

???? Zucker also inspected the first industry, SpongeBob SquarePants, created by him.

???? At the same time, Zucker also took a look at the sales of SpongeBob SquarePants last month.

???? At present, SpongeBob SquarePants has expanded to 19 stores in addition to the 7 stores it opened at the beginning. In addition to downtown Los Angeles, it has also established stores throughout California.

???? After all, California is Zucker's home base!

???? Last month, 19 SpongeBob SquarePants reported a total of $23 million;

???? After removing various expenses, the profit is 4 million US dollars;

???? Of course, the most gratifying thing is the online mall!

???? Since 1996, SpongeBob SquarePants has cooperated with Amazon Mall to develop online sales services. Thanks to the foresight of Zhu Ke's traveler, it has won the peripheral copyrights of popular movies, only last month. On the network side, SpongeBob SquarePants reported $17 million in revenue, with a profit of $4.5 million.

???? The profit ratio of the online mall is higher than that of the physical store!

???? "Hashimoto Taro, you did a good job!"

???? Zucker is now praising the little devil in front of him, after all, he has done a pretty good job. Compared to the original James Shaw...

Much stronger.

???? "Thank you boss for the compliment!"

???? Hashimoto Taro, the little devil, bowed deeply to Zhu Keshen with great respect.

???? After some chat, Hashimoto Taro made an application to Zucker.

???? "Boss, a few days ago, I attended a fair of peripheral products and toys, and met a person named Bryant Ben. He is a very talented person." Hashimoto Taro said.

???? "Uh, you can be specific."

???? Zucker was a little interested.

???? Mainly the name Bryant Ben, Zucker always felt a little familiar.

???? "" the first more sent. Sorry for being late, sorry!
