Media Tycoon since 1999

Chapter 372

March 3th, Jingzhe.

On this day, 200 mainstream media across the country received a press conference invitation letter from Broad PR:

It is scheduled at 2006:3 am on March 10, 9, 51 Group, together with Yiwang and Baidu, will hold a strategic cooperation press conference at the International Trade Hotel in Beijing...

The e-mail was sent in groups at 9:9 a.m., and at 15:20 a.m., more than [-] media specialists from Yuanda PR began to call these media reporters one by one to confirm whether they would attend.

The unified caliber of the media commissioners is:

"At this grand press conference, 51 Group will sign a strategic cooperation agreement with Yiwang and Baidu, and there will be other important announcements on the spot..."

In the next few days, Yuanda PR will confirm the specific itinerary and other matters with media reporters outside the capital.

The press conference will be held for half a day. From March 3th to 11th, 12 Group will organize participating media reporters to visit famous scenic spots around the capital for a day and a half.

On the morning of March 3, some media reporters released the news that the 6 Group will join hands with Yiwang and Baidu to enter into a strategic cooperation.

Although the specific form and content of cooperation are not clear, this matter itself is quite exciting.

In this era, Yiwang and Baidu are still the most powerful Internet companies in China, and Ding Lei and Li Yan are out-and-out industry leaders.

In the 2005 rich list list, Ding Lei ranked third, and Li Yan ranked No.17.

Among the two of them, the only one who has anything to do with the Internet is the ninth-ranked Boss Shanda Chen, a big boss in online games.

Ali's horse owner ranked No. 20, seven, and Goose Factory's horse owner ranked No. 60, eight.

There are only four Internet giants on the list.

51 Group had previously had an open cooperative relationship with Yiwang and Baidu, but now it is necessary to clearly establish a strategic partnership.

This news is quite explosive.

Moreover, the PR company was still mysterious, saying that there would be explosive news announced at the press conference.

Many media reporters are waiting for the arrival of March 3th.

A press conference was fired up by the media before it officially started.

There were also heated discussions on the Internet for a while.

The 51 Group holds press conferences on a large scale, and it also pays a lot of money for media reporters, and also arranges food, drink and entertainment.

Moreover, I also like to play the set of revealing the secrets on the spot.

Ding Lei and Li Yan could only shake their heads and smile when they saw the news about the strategic cooperation between the three companies starting to be hyped online.

This guy Gao Yang likes to use the opportunity to hype.

Although this is a press conference held jointly by the three companies, more than 200 reporters have been invited, including all major provincial TV stations across the country.

The cost of a press conference is in the millions, all of which are borne by the 51 Group, and Yiwang and Baidu don't have to pay a penny.

Ding Lei and Li Yan have both participated in the internal beta of 51 Weibo. From their perspectives, they both feel that this product is very likely to become a hit.

Gao Yang also explained to Ding Lei and Li Yan that 51 Weibo is the last link of 51 Group's social pan-media layout.

There will be no major new project investments for the next few years.

On March 3th, the spring was bright and the temperature in Beijing was still relatively low.The temperature at night is still below zero, and the highest temperature during the day is less than 10 degrees.

Yesterday afternoon and evening, more than 160 media reporters from all over the country rushed to the capital and settled in the International Trade Hotel.

Early in the morning, in the conference hall where the 51 Group held a press conference, the reporters took their seats early again.

In the past two years, 51 Group has been one of the Internet companies that has held the most press conferences, and the news announced at each press conference can become hot news.

At 8:50 in the morning, the "Small Knife Club Overture" appeared again.

Later, Gao Yang accompanied Ding Lei and Li Yan into the arena and took their seats, and the hosts Zhou Wenbin and Shen Xin also took the stage together.

Zhou Wenbin became more mature and confident, and said with a smile on his face: "Welcome friends from the media industry. Today is a very important day. 51 Group will sign a strategic cooperation agreement with Yiwang and Baidu. It is a worthy event in the development of Huaxia Internet. A day to remember."

Shen Xin is elegant and calm, with the same demeanor, and said with a bit of playfulness: "In addition to the signing of the strategic cooperation agreement by the three companies today, 51 Group will release two important news. In addition, there are three big stars in the entertainment industry to help out today, performing program."

Under the stage, Ding Lei, who was in a daze, whispered to Gao Yang: "Inviting celebrities to help out, what the hell are you doing?"

Gao Yang responded with a soft smile: "It was planned by Yuanda Company, and they will help each other. You will understand after watching the performance."

Ding Lei asked again: "How much did it cost to hire a celebrity?"

Gao Yang said with a smile: "It didn't cost any money, it didn't cost a penny, so they want to use today's press conference to promote it."

Ding Lei shook his head, expressing his disbelief, and Gao Yang said, "We will arrange a little hard work for them personally, this is not called spending money."

Then, Fang Jian made his debut on stage as the CEO of 51 Group for the first time, introducing the development status of 51 Group, the background of establishing strategic partnerships with Yiwang and Baidu, two top Internet companies, and the main reasons for future cooperation. direction, wait,
Through Fang Jian's introduction, the media in the audience knew that the total number of users of the many Internet projects under the 51 Group had exceeded [-] million.

其中，51同城网注册用户超过4000万，51人人网的注册用户超过9000万，51talk及talk空间用户超过7000万，51财富网用户超过4000万，51卫士用户超过4000万，51邮箱用户超过2000万……

51 Group seems to be the fastest growing Internet company in the past two years, bar none.

It was also Gao Yang's request to let Fang Jian go on stage to introduce the 51 Group. From now on, Fang Jian will mainly deal with the media. Gao Yang is going to disappear slowly and focus on investment.

After Fang Jian's speech, Zhang Xiaolong, vice president of the group, appeared again.

Zhang Xiaolong mainly introduced the development trend of social platforms under 51 Group, and then focused on 51talk, whose user scale is growing rapidly.

Zhang Xiaolong suddenly changed the subject: "Here, on behalf of 51 Group, I would like to announce good news to friends in the media circles. As part of the strategic cooperation between the three companies of 51NB, 51 Group has reached an agreement with Yiwang to acquire POPO, an IM. product.

POPO has nearly 2000 million users. The product team will join the 51 Group as a whole and integrate with the 51talk project. For all POPO users, there will be a one-year transition period before they will eventually migrate to the 51talk IM product.

The next product iteration of 51talk will also absorb some of the application features of POPO. We believe that this is a strong integration of the two IM products. 51talk will be more popular with users, and the number of users will soon exceed [-] million..."

The media reporters in the audience immediately discussed that 51 Group acquired POPO of Yiwang, and then integrated it with 51talk. This is indeed another explosive news...
