I really didn’t want to be a warm man when I was reborn

Xiao Qiao lazily went to the bathroom, and Li Zhe took the tablet nearby and started playing with it.

This tablet belongs to Xiao Qiao.

When he opened the browser, he saw a piece of news.

Renren’s stock price plunged and fell sharply again.

Renren was listed on the New York Stock Exchange early last month. The concept of ZG version of Facebook was recognized by Wall Street, and its market value suddenly reached 7.012 billion US dollars.

The market value surpassed that of Internet giants such as Xinlang and Netyi, and was second only to Baidu and Penguin. It was instantly famous and overshadowed Qudong Group.

Some people even call it the third pole of the domestic Internet.

However, this glory only lasted for one day. The market value fell by 15% on the second day of listing. In the past month or so, the stock price has continued to decline and the market value has almost been cut in half.

From a blue chip stock to the biggest bubble stock.

Li Zhe shook his head in his mind and closed the web page.

Renren's development strategy is unclear. It says it wants to build a social platform and become the ZG version of Facebook, but it does not focus on building a social platform. Instead, it pursues profits excessively and does some profitable businesses.

Recently, games have become the main business of Renren. With 117 million active users, it competes with Quwan Technology and Penguin Games to compete for the game market.

After that, Renren seems to have also been involved in Internet finance, live broadcasting, second-hand cars, and blockchain. It has been chasing the trend. As a result, not only did it not take off, but it made people everywhere.

It is said that CEO Chen has a good vision. There is no doubt about this. Otherwise, he would not be able to pursue so many opportunities, but he is not suitable for managing the company.

His management of Renren can be said to be a blind bear model, throwing away one thing and picking up the other, discarding the good and chasing the weak.

If Boss Wang hadn't run out of money and sold Xiaonei.com to CEO Chen, this platform would never have died completely.

Later, Boss Wang started to engage in catering, and he also did everything, but his positioning was very clear, and his main business was takeaway business.

Li Zhe's management of Qudong Group is the same. Quwan Technology is about making games, Quku Entertainment is about the film and television business, and Qudong Video is about making short videos. The business positioning is very clear, and no matter how profitable it is, it will not get involved in other businesses.

After the development of Qudong Video hit a bottleneck, many people in the management suggested expanding the business scope and getting involved in the long-form video field. Li Zhe suppressed all these voices.

Although there is only one word difference between short video platform and video platform, they are completely different in terms of business positioning.

The most important thing for Qudong Video now is to further consolidate its leading position in the short video market, rather than getting involved in the long video business and competing with major platforms such as Youku, Tudou, and Qiyi.

After Qudong Video became popular, it sparked short video trends, and many short video and live broadcast platforms followed suit. Tudou also launched a short video version.

Although these platforms have not yet threatened Qudong Video’s leading position, they are worthy of vigilance.

It is also worth mentioning that kShou was established at the beginning of this year and is currently called GIFkShou. It is a mobile application used to create and share GIF images.

Seeing CEO Chen's random operation and smashing his trump card to pieces, Li Zhe really wanted to snatch Renren over.

Renren has 117 million active users, and currently there are only over 400 million domestic Internet users.

If Renren and Qudong Video are integrated, we can really create a domestic version of Facebook and become the third pole of the domestic Internet.

Until 10 years later, China still lacked a social service platform involving social networking and news push like Facebook.

The social attributes of Weibo and WeChat are declining. On the contrary, Dy, which started with short videos, is becoming more and more like a social service platform, and hot news is spread on Dy.

Li Zhe quickly browsed through the news headlines, suddenly his eyes narrowed, and he clicked on another news item.

Xiaomi mobile phone is officially on sale, with a final price of 1,989 yuan!

Xiaomi Mi 1 was released on June 18th, which is yesterday.

At the press conference, when Rebus announced the national unified price of Xiaomi 1 at 1,989 yuan, cheers and screams erupted for half a minute. The first batch of reservations was for 300,000 units.

HTC and other mobile phone brands with the same configuration sell for 3,000-4,000 yuan, so Xiaomi phones suddenly have the reputation of being price butchers.

In fact, the original price of Xiaomi Mi 1 was 1,999 yuan, and with the pre-installed QuChat offering a 10 yuan price subsidy, it dropped to 1,989 yuan.

Not only Xiaomi, but Qudong Group and mobile phone manufacturers such as Huawei and Meizu have also reached pre-installation cooperation.

However, Penguin has also attracted mobile phone manufacturers such as Lenovo and Kupai, and has also reached cooperation with Lenovo.

Li Zhe thought he was attacking first, but in fact the Penguin was not slower at all than him.

Liantong Broadband is bound to the mobile phone, and Anbang Broadband comes with a mobile phone. After Penguin reached a cooperation with Liantong, the number of new users of WeChat suddenly increased sharply, directly catching up with Quchao.

This has caused many capitals that are negotiating financing with Qudong Group to waver in their attitude towards Qudiao, and the conditions they have given have become more stringent.

Although Qudiao still occupies the vast majority of the market share and is at an absolute advantage.

Faced with this situation, Li Zhe simply temporarily suspended financing.

This is because he only holds a large amount of funds. Otherwise, he will be dragged down by Penguin, or he will have to accept the harsh conditions of capital taking advantage of the situation.

Boss Wang sold the school network just because he ran out of money.

Xiao Ma almost sold the buckle at one point, but luckily no one bought it.

Recently, Penguin sued Funwan Technology’s newly released “PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds”, claiming that it plagiarized “CrossFire”.

The struggle between the two parties has expanded from the field of mobile instant messaging to the gaming industry.

If the fight continues like this, even if one side wins in the end, it will be a tragic victory.

Although Li Zhe had the idea of ​​​​taking peace as the most important thing, the prerequisite for cooperation was to obtain an overwhelming advantage.

How could Ba Goose give in so easily if he wasn't used to being domineering?

So the competition will continue for the time being.

"Husband, what are you looking at?" Xiao Qiao came out of the bathroom wearing a towel after taking a bath.

Her wet hair was spread over her shoulders, and her fair and flawless skin was slightly pink, half-covered and half-exposed, which made her even more imaginative.

Li Zhe glanced at her and put the tablet aside.

"I didn't read much, just browsed the news."

Although the two have been together for a long time and there is no freshness like when they first fell in love, Xiao Qiao's appearance just after taking a shower is still quite attractive to him.

"Let me help you dry your hair."

"Yeah." Xiao Qiao smiled and hummed.

She deliberately didn't dry her hair because she wanted Li Zhe to help.

Li Zhe stood up and found a hair dryer from the cabinet and started to dry Xiao Qiao's hair.

The hair dryer was buzzing, the wind was warm, and Li Zhe's big hands were gently playing with her hair. Xiao Qiao felt an indescribable warmth, her body completely relaxed, and she felt sleepy again.

Suddenly she remembered something and opened her eyes that were about to close.

"By the way! Husband, what did you talk to her about during the day?"

"With whom?" Li Zhe asked with a smile.

"Don't act stupid, Tan Hui, your former crush."

"When you talk about her, she's either talking to you or just catching up on old times."

"Reminiscing about old times? Who are you fooling! Why did she cry when we were just reminiscing about old times? Tell me honestly, did you do anything to her?" Xiao Qiao deliberately emphasized one of the words.

"What can I do?"

"What are you doing? Just do something bad!"

"Then do you want me to do it or not?"

"You're not really going to do anything to her, are you?" Xiao Qiao turned around and said with doubt in her eyes.

"Don't move!" Li Zhe smiled and pushed her head back.

"She wanted to catch up with the old 'Li Zhe', but that 'Li Zhe' was long gone."

Xiao Qiao was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was saying.

"Does she want to rekindle old friendship with you?"

It turns out that this is "reminiscing about the past"!

"Absolutely." Li Zhe smiled.

"Shameless!" Xiao Qiao said angrily.

"She looked down on you before, but now she sees you are getting better and better and regrets it again."

"By the way, you didn't promise her, right?"

"I originally wanted to agree, but when I thought about you, I firmly rejected her." Li Zhe said with a smile in his voice.

"Huh, you just know how to coax me with sweet words." Xiao Qiao said with an angry smile.

"Then I will stop coaxing you with nice words from now on and go coax others."

"you dare?"

"Okay, okay!" Seeing that her hair was almost dry, Li Zhe turned off the hair dryer.

"Okay! Then I'll go to bed." Xiao Qiao stretched lazily and prepared to lie down.

"I have to get up early to take pictures tomorrow!"

Li Zhe put his arms around her and said, "Qiao Bao, I have served you, should you also serve me?"

"What are you serving?" Xiao Qiao looked innocent.

"Don't pretend to be stupid!" Li Zhe rubbed her head in a funny way.

"Honey, I'm so tired, I just want to sleep." Xiao Qiao said coquettishly.

"Exercising for a while will help you sleep better."

"Okay, then you go take a shower."

"No more washing."

"You're not washing again, why are you always like this?"

"No, go take a shower. You smell like sweat. It smells terrible!"

The weather was hot, and Li Zhe and Xiao Qiao sweated a lot after taking wedding photos outdoors for a day.

"What's the smell of sweat? It's called manly smell."

Seeing that Xiao Qiao was resolute, Li Zhe didn't force her and let her go to the bathroom.

Although he liked to "force" Xiao Qiao and saw her unwillingness, it was a bit too much to do it all the time.

Li Zhe took the shower very quickly and came out of the bathroom in five or six minutes.

But when he returned to the bedroom, he found Xiao Qiao lying on his side on the bed, already asleep, breathing evenly, and sleeping soundly.

Li Zhe looked at her and shook his head lightly.

He knew this would happen.

When he came to the bed, Li Zhe pulled the thin quilt over Xiao Qiao, then put on a loose and comfortable T-shirt and shorts, and left the room with the half pack of cigarettes.

It was not yet 9 o'clock in the evening, and he couldn't sleep at all. He planned to go to the rooftop terrace to smoke a cigarette and enjoy the breeze.

Li Zhe followed the stairs to the third floor. Before he could reach the terrace, he heard a girl talking.

A small barbecue grill was set up on the terrace. Chen Xian and Lu Mingyang were eating barbecue, drinking beer, and laughing and chatting.

"You two really know how to enjoy it."

"Senior?" Chen Xian and Lu Mingyang heard the voice and turned their heads. When they found it was Li Zhe, they were stunned for a moment and stood up quickly.

"You two go ahead and eat your food, and I will come up to blow some air." Li Zhe said to them with a smile.

He came to the terrace and looked down into the distance. Under the night, the shops along the street were glowing with lights, and scattered pedestrians were coming and going.

"Senior, why don't you eat some with us." Chen Xian's voice came from behind.

Li Zhe turned around and found that she and Lu Mingyang were still standing, with the aroma of grilled meat skewers, chicken wings, squid and vegetables on the small table.

He was busy taking pictures during the day and didn't eat much. Now when he saw the food, he was really hungry.

"Okay, then I won't be polite to you two anymore."

Li Zhe said, came to the small table and sat down.

Seeing him sit down, Chen Xian and Lu Mingyang also sat down this time.

Chen Xian took out a can of beer from the foam box, opened it and handed it to Li Zhe, "Senior, you drink beer."

Li Zhe ate a skewer of meat first, then took a sip of beer. As soon as the cold beer entered his stomach, he immediately felt refreshed.

It's really nice to drink a bottle of beer in this summer.

"These meat skewers taste good!" He picked up another skewer of squid and ate it.

"Well, grilled squid is also fine."

Lu Mingyang glanced at Chen Xian and said, "These are all baked by my senior sister, I am only responsible for eating them."

She paused and then said, "Senior sister, she not only knows how to barbecue, she can also cook, and her skills are also very good."

After hearing this, Li Zhe looked at Chen Xian in surprise.

Nowadays, not many young girls can cook, and even fewer beautiful girls can cook.

Just like Xiao Qiao, when we first got together, she could only cook instant noodles.

Chen Xian smiled and said modestly: "Senior, don't listen to Yangyang's exaggeration. I just followed the recipes and made home-cooked dishes several times after I moved out."

"If you think the taste of my baking is okay, just eat more and I will continue baking."

After she finished speaking, she added ingredients to the grill.

"You are beautiful and good at cooking, Xiaoxian, whoever can marry you will be lucky!" Li Zhe looked at Chen Xian and said with a smile.

Chen Xian fiddled with the skewers on the barbecue grill and said nothing.

Lu Mingyang glanced at Chen Xian, then looked at Li Zhe and said in a joking tone: "Senior, senior Xiaoxian is so good, then why don't you marry her?"

As soon as she said these words, Li Zhe and Chen Xian were stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other.

Chen Xian dodged Li Zhe's gaze somewhat.

Li Zhe looked at Lu Mingyang and smiled and said, "I also want to marry, but I already have a girlfriend."

After a pause, he joked again: "Just like you are very good, I can't marry you, right?"

When Lu Mingyang heard this, his face turned red.

"I'm only 18 and can't get married yet." She whispered.

Li Zhe couldn't help but laugh after hearing this. Lu Mingyang was really interesting.

Chen Xian also laughed, glanced at Lu Mingyang and said, "Yangyang pretends to be 18, but she is actually only 17."

"17?" Li Zhe looked at Lu Mingyang and asked, "Yangyang, were you born in 1994?"

"Yes." Lu Mingyang blushed and nodded lightly.

"It's so small!"

Li Zhe was born in 1987, 7 years older than Lu Mingyang.

Ten years from now, little girls like her will call him uncle.

There were not many grilled skewers, only a dozen or so. Li Zhe ate seven or eight skewers by himself. Lu Mingyang ate the remaining skewers. Chen Xian was busy grilling the ingredients for them.

Li Zhe found that Lu Mingyang was very interesting in eating. He chewed very widely and looked like a greedy little squirrel, which was still a relatively thin squirrel.
