I really just want to make money

Chapter 327 Explosive Development (two-in-one chapters please subscribe)
Starting from April 4th, with the hot screening of "Huaxia Partner" and Li Yu's crazy hype, the downloads and number of users of the revised Moyu Chinese website app, Xiaoxiang Academy app and Moyu Mall app continued to explode. increase.

“4月30至5月15日，摸鱼中文网app累计下载量3244万，活跃用户2932万，新增活跃账户856万。

Counting the PC side of Moyu Chinese Network, the effective users of Moyu Chinese Network reached 3556 million, an increase of 70% in half a month, and the goal of adding 3000 million new users this year was completed ahead of schedule! "

Following Wu Wenbin's report, everyone looked at their boss Li with admiration.

At the beginning of the year, Li Yu asked Moyu Chinese.com to add at least 3000 million new users this year. At that time, everyone felt that this was an impossible task.

As a result, in less than half a year now, that impossible task has been completed...

Although there is an unexpected element of "Huaxia Partner" in it, even if it doesn't, Moyu Chinese.com develops according to the normal rhythm, and can easily complete this task before the end of the year!
The boss is the boss, stand tall and see far...

After scanning the several managements of Moyu Chinese.com, Li Yu nodded in satisfaction.

These people are old people who have started their own businesses, and they have lived up to their expectations.

"Very well, I am very satisfied with this result!
But what I want to say is that the 3000 million growth target is just the beginning, not the end.

I hope you will continue to work hard and strive to complete another small goal of 3000 million in the second half of the year! "

As soon as Li Yu finished speaking, the smile on Wu Wenbin's face was not relaxed in an instant.

Fortunately, Li Yu is not the kind of person who "only lets the horse run, but does not feed the horse". He then gave a carrot and a piece of cake to the people on Moyu Chinese Network.

Li Yu first told Zhao Fang:
"Mr. Zhao, Moyu Chinese Network's performance rewards in the second quarter have doubled overall, and they will be distributed according to the size of their contributions. Everyone should see the bonus increase, but it cannot be distributed equally..."

The bonus is carrots, you can eat them when you take them home.

And Li Yu's pie is aimed at the management.

"I see that you have all bought houses recently, and you probably don't have much money on hand. The implementation of equity incentives will be implemented at the end of the year. As long as the number of active users can increase by another 3000 million before the end of the year, I will allocate equity to you according to the valuation at the end of June!"

As soon as the equity incentive scheme was drawn, the executives of Moyu Chinese.com immediately felt as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and the executives of several other subsidiaries also cast envious looks.

Moyu Technology’s equity incentives are limited to subsidiaries, take Moyu Chinese Network as an example.

The company hired a third-party professional consulting company to evaluate the market valuation based on the dimensions of user scale, daily activity, monthly activity, income, profit, development speed and potential.

This market valuation can be understood as the valuation at which external investment companies are willing to invest in Moyu Chinese Network.

After calculation, the current market valuation of Moyu Chinese Network is 5 million yuan.

This number is not an exaggeration, 3500 million active users, advertising and author sales as the main source of income, a large number of high-quality novel copyrights, and the potential for rapid development...

If Li Yu is willing to quote 5 million yuan for financing, the investment company can break the bank.

Of course, since it is an "equity incentive", Li Yu will naturally not use the market valuation to sell equity to the management.

6% off!
According to the timing of the equity incentive, 6% of the equity is allocated to the management at a discount of 2% of the company's market valuation.

Converted to the current Moyu Chinese website, it is worth 1000 million shares, which will be sold to the company's management at a price of 600 million.

Based on this equity incentive alone, a CEO like Wu Wenbin can make a net profit of hundreds of thousands, which is equivalent to 2 years' salary income!
And as time goes by, he can continue to receive dividends from the company's development...

Just doing equity incentives now has such benefits, not to mention that Li Yu promised to give equity incentives at the current valuation at the end of the year!

After the painting of the big cake of Moyu Chinese Network was finished, the atmosphere in the entire conference room became more enthusiastic.

The two Internet subsidiaries, Moyu Mall and Xiaoxiang Academy, as well as A Cup of Milk Tea, Rose Clothing, and Nanshan Winery are also within the scope of equity incentives.

Next, several other subsidiaries also completed their reports one after another.

The Xiaoxiang Academy app has been downloaded 677 million times, and the number of effective users is 445 million. Including PC users, the number of effective users is 508 million.
Although this number cannot be compared with Moyu Chinese website, but in terms of growth rate, the data of Xiaoxiang Academy is absolutely terrifying.

470%!

The original number of users of Xiaoxiang Academy was only more than 100 million. This round of growth has directly doubled several times, which can be called a myth of performance!

Li Yu is quite satisfied with this result, but Hu Chengfei, CEO of Xiaoxiang Academy, feels a little regretful.

She felt that the main reason why the user growth of Xiaoxiang Academy was not as good as that of Moyu Chinese Website was the content of the website.

The current Xiaoxiang Academy only has dozens of serialized novels, and more than 100 completed novels that she bought from other sites. With such a small amount of content, it is impossible to retain users at all.

If you can acquire and integrate the resources of several small websites...

Hu Chengfei's eyes were fiery.

Especially knowing that "The Legend of Zhen Huan" on my website is about to be made into a TV series. Once the TV series becomes popular, it will definitely bring huge traffic to Xiaoxiang Academy!
At that time, if it is still the same as it is now, with empty traffic but unable to retain customers, then she will really cry.

"Mr. Li, what I told you last time about the acquisition of the website, do you think it can be implemented?"

Hu Chengfei looked at Boss Li expectantly and asked.

Whether it is investing in movies and TV shows, or investing in website construction, Boss Li is full of local tyrants.

However, Boss Li delayed the acquisition of the women's video website for a long time, which made Hu Chengfei a little anxious...

In this regard, Li Yu is also a little helpless.

The drifting bottle was weak, and there was no information about the acquisition of the female channel website after drifting seven or eight times. He was not sure whether he could operate it...

Considering that the company's morale is booming now, and Li Yu can't dampen the enthusiasm of the management, after some thinking, he still decided to believe in himself once.

"Yes, you can contact several websites first, acquire one of them first, and see the effect after completing the resource integration. If the effect meets expectations, then continue to acquire the second one."

Finally, when Boss Li nodded, Hu Chengfei almost jumped up excitedly.

"Okay Mr. Li, don't worry, I will definitely handle things beautifully!"

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news. In addition, if the number of active users of Xiaoxiang Academy reaches 2000 million by the end of the year, a round of equity incentives will be given to you at that time."

Li Yu is talking about equity incentives, not equity incentives based on the current valuation. After all, there is still a little difference between the two.

However, Hu Chengfei knows well that Xiaoxiang Academy's current performance is not enough to compare with Moyu Chinese website.

The promise of getting Li Yu's equity incentive has exceeded her expectations, and she was still thinking about getting an equity incentive next year...

The two novel websites have both won the big cake of Boss Li's equity incentives. Next, the executives of Moyu Mall are already eager to see through.

In terms of making money, Moyu Technology Company is the most powerful in Moyu Mall.

However, Moyu Mall also has its own shortcomings, that is, the lack of self-hematopoietic ability, mainly relying on the internal blood transfusion of the two major novel websites, so when they face novel websites, they always feel short...

Under the expectant eyes of the management, Su Lin sorted out the data in a leisurely manner, and then slowly reported.

Compared with other people's hindsight, Su Lin actually knew Li Yu's decision a long time ago.

It even said that part of Li Yu's decision this time was Su Lin's suggestion. The two of them discussed many things while doing it at home...

Moyu Mall app has 454 million downloads in half a month and 262 million active users.

Moyu Mall does not have a PC terminal, but the websites and apps of Moyu Chinese Network and Xiaoxiang Academy are embedded in Moyu Mall, which has contributed nearly 1500 million effective customers.

Effective customers of Moyu Mall refer to users who have made consumption on the website. These are sources of profit. In terms of value, they are not worth much higher than the effective users calculated by the novel website.

In addition to the increase in the number of users, the main performance of Moyu Mall depends on sales and profits.

New business promotion, plus a site-wide price reduction promotion to welcome new users, in just half a month, Moyu Mall completed a sales volume of 1.1 million!

Profit 2900 million!
In the first few days, it was mainly the business of the sex toys segment, which contributed 3000 million sales.

When the new business bonus period subsides, the mall's sales begin to balance out, with clothing still accounting for 60%, and medicinal wine and sex toys taking up the other 40%.

Although Moyu Mall mainly relies on the conversion of internal users of the company, it is a big money maker after all, and its status and importance in the entire Moyu Technology Company is self-evident.

Correspondingly, Li Yu also made a promise similar to that of Moyu Chinese Network: the number of users of Moyu Mall will increase by another 1000 million before the end of the year, and the annual profit will exceed 3 million. The valuation of the equity incentives.

This meeting not only affirmed and summarized the previous performance, but also set the tone for the development of the second half of the year.

Through the big pie of equity incentives, the fighting spirit of the company's management was once again stimulated!

All in all, it was a successful meeting, a great one...

Cough, the cowhide is exaggerated, this is actually a flicker meeting where the boss draws big cakes for the employees, and the whole process is full of chicken blood.

After Li Yu finished painting the big cake, Chen Jihua, the CEO of Moyu Technology Company, formulated the task breakdown of each stage and proposed specific work arrangements according to the spiritual instructions of Boss Li.

Finally, Chen Jihua also put forward a suggestion to change the name of Moyu Technology Company to Moyu Technology Investment Group, referred to as Moyu Group, and formally carry out group corporate governance.

For this kind of management matters, Li Yu is also happy to let professional people do it.

After all, I paid a high salary to lure Chen Jihua here, not to make him a vase...

At the end of the meeting, everyone's tasks are fully arranged.

After Li Yu was free, he suddenly remembered that he was about to invest in the filming of "The Legend of Zhen Huan". He just took advantage of the popularity of his meager account to warm up first.

It's just that how to post this meager is a problem.

If you just publish a message, it will have no effect at all, just like advertising.

Having already tasted the sweetness brought by the "5 million VS gambling" once, Li Yu has a bit of a taste, and he wants to come up with a little more gimmick.

Whether a movie is popular depends on the box office, and whether a TV series is popular depends on the ratings.

Grasping the key point of "ratings", a smile flashed in Li Yu's eyes.

Soon, Li Yu used the drift bottle to successfully obtain the future ratings data of "The Legend of Zhen Huan": 2.1%
Li Yu is not a professional. When he saw the 2.1% figure, he didn't know whether it was more or less, so he checked the list of TV dramas with the highest ratings in history online.

First, "18 Years of Enemy Camp", the highest audience rating was 99%!

Second, "Desire", the highest audience rating of 98%
Third, "Journey to the West", the highest audience rating of 98%
Fourth, "Legend of the New White Snake", the highest audience rating was 91%
Fifth, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the highest audience rating was 90%
After reading the top five historical audience rating data, Li Yu immediately crashed.

90+ ratings at every turn, is this serious?
Li Yu had a look of disbelief, especially the number one TV series, what the hell, I had never heard of it.

Fortunately, starting from the second part, Li Yu is familiar with it, especially the second part "Longing", which was filmed by Zheng Xiaolong, the director of "Zhen Huan Biography".

Thinking of Zheng Xiaolong, Li Yu finally realized it.

I really lost my mind!

Leaving aside the ready-made great director and not asking, he actually ran to the Internet to check information...

After calling Zheng Xiaolong and briefly inquiring about the crew's preliminary plans, Li Yu was secretly dumbfounded after hearing that the shooting locations had been booked, including Hengdian Film and Television City, Imperial Capital Jietai Temple, and Yuanmingyuan Grand View Garden.

Forget it in Hengdian, as long as you have money, but in the two filming locations in the imperial capital, especially in the Old Summer Palace, Zheng Xiaolong was able to get the filming permit, which really exceeded Li Yu's expectations!
It is indeed a senior director who can shoot "Longing"!

It's just that Li Yu is surprised. With such an awesome director, plus he is willing to spend money, and the novels produced by the system as a base, how come the TV series' ratings are only 2.1%?

"Director Zheng, you know about the script and investment of The Legend of Zhen Huan. If I give you the right to find actors and not interfere with your filming, how much rating do you think you can get?" Li Yu asked his own doubts.

On the other side of the phone, Zheng Xiaolong heard Li Yu's question and immediately understood his state of mind.

Investors, who are about to spend a lot of money, will definitely worry about gains and losses, and this time is the time to test the director's level of deception.

He pondered for a moment, and then said a goal that he thought was not bad.

"Mr. Li, I am confident that I will get 1.8% ratings!"

Fuck, your bottom line is too low!

Li Yu was a little speechless and said: "Director Zheng, the ratings are a bit low, I think your filming "Desire" has a ratings of more than 90, so the Legend of Zhen Huan must have seven or eight ratings, right?"

Hearing Li Yu's request, Zheng Xiaolong almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

"Ahem, Mr. Li, that's the old calendar from 800 years ago..."

After Zheng Xiaolong's explanation, Li Yu finally figured out the issue of ratings.

The so-called audience rating only refers to the number of households watching the program in the region/total number of households in the region. This number of households is actually the number of TV sets.

The rankings that Li Yu found from the Internet were all manually calculated ratings a long time ago. In addition, there were few TV sets at that time, which created a terrifying data of 90+.

According to Zheng Xiaolong, if the ratings of a TV series reach 1.5%, it is already considered popular.

With Zhen Huan Chuan's investment, if the ratings reach 1.5%, you can make a small profit. If you can reach 1.8%, Li Yu's investment rate of return will not be lower than 50%.

"So, wouldn't Zhen Huan's 2.1% ratings earn double?" Li Yu was secretly delighted.

1 times, that is, 8600 million, which is basically consistent with the system's estimated value of 9000 million.

The system is awesome, and the calculation is too accurate!
After feeling the magic of the system, Li Yu was not satisfied with it.

Because the 2.1% audience rating is without the intervention of my own butterfly, just like the box office of "Huaxia Partners", the future can be changed.

Being disturbed by myself, the box office of the movie soared by 1 million, and the company also earned a large number of users. This is a positive impact...

Since I can hype movies, I can also hype TV dramas. The principle is the same, so it depends on how to hype.

When Li Yu was thinking about how to hype "The Legend of Zhen Huan", the news that he planned to invest 8600 million to film "The Legend of Zhen Huan" had already spread throughout the company.

After Lan Ruoxi got the news, she was in a very complicated mood. Needless to say, she was happy, but she was still not confident.

In terms of novel popularity, "Zhen Huan's Biography" is also a bit famous in Xiaoxiang Academy. With that little collection and reading data, it doesn't even rank in the top [-] on Moyu Chinese Network.

Li Yu chose not to shoot so many novels, but chose his own novel, and spent so much money on it.

If this messes up, how can I have the face to stay in the company?

With hesitation and worry all over her face, Lan Ruoxi found Li Yu.

"Brother Li Yu, I was just talking about urging you to make a TV series, so don't take it seriously..."

Li Yu invited Lan Ruoxi to work in his company to write novels, and promised her that the novel would be a hit and would be adapted into a TV series.

Later, compared with the novels on Moyu Chinese Network, the performance of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was not as good as expected. Lan Ruoxi wanted to "extort" another book from Li Yu, so she used his original promise as an excuse.

Now that Li Yu suddenly decided to pay a lot of money to film "The Legend of Zhen Huan", Lan Ruoxi thought it was because of her own influence...

Regarding Lan Ruoxi's innocent and lovely thoughts, Li Yu could only say in his heart: Sister, do you dare to believe in a man's promise?I just want to make money...

"Hey, once a man says his word, it's hard to follow! Brother Yu, I will definitely keep my word!"

Li Yu's words almost moved Lan Ruoxi to death.

Brother Yu is really a man!
Li Yu saw that he was almost bragging, and he hadn't forgotten his third-hand insurance, so he pretended to ponder for a while and said:
"Well, if you're afraid that I'll lose money, you can go to the crew and get a job as a screenwriter and director, and help me check it out..."

"Go to the crew as a screenwriter and director?"

Lan Ruoxi blinked her lovely big eyes twice, and said a little uncertainly:
"But I don't know how to make TV dramas. Is it useful to go to the crew?"

"Of course it's useful! First of all, you wrote this novel. How can the director and screenwriter be as professional as you? If you find any obvious problems, you can correct them in time."

"In addition, if you go there, it is equivalent to a supervisor I sent there. Think about it, I spent so much money, what if no one is watching and it is swallowed up by others?"

After being fooled by Li Yu, Lan Ruoxi finally understood how important she was, and immediately stopped hesitating.

"Okay, then I will follow the crew throughout the filming, and make sure they don't dare to make any small moves!" Lan Ruoxi waved her small fist, her tone unusually firm.

She is not sure if she can correct the problems in the TV series, but it is still possible to be a supervisor.

For fooling Lan Ruoxi, Li Yu felt somewhat guilty and wanted to make up for her.

Unfortunately, for Lan Meizi, money and power are useless.

"I don't seem to have anything that interests her other than the 100 kilograms of flesh on my body..."

Li Yu was complaining in his heart, when suddenly, his eyes moved slightly, thinking of something that Lan Ruoxi must be interested in.

As a novel author, there is nothing more satisfying than having your own novel become popular!
This is especially true for Lan Ruoxi, a middle school girl who is addicted to writing novels.

Li Yu had been unable to make the novel "The Legend of Zhen Huan" completely popular before, but this time...

He was just thinking about how to maximize the benefits of hyping the TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

Now, isn't the opportunity here?

Come to a "big bet" with netizens, using the ratings of "Zhen Huan" as the target of the bet, and those who participate in the bet must bookmark and read the novel "Zhen Huan".

Putting aside the phenomenon and looking at the essence, this is exactly the same as Li Yu's promise that ""Huaxia Partner" will be refunded if the box office is less than 5 million."

Since ancient times, the true feelings have not been retained, and only the routines have won the hearts of the people.

Li Yu finally found another magical use of the system's drifting bottle function...

However, such a big situation can't be done just for a novel.

The content of the current Xiaoxiang Academy is still too small, and it is easy to lose users when they come here. The acquisition of the website is indeed going to be accelerated!

After straightening out his thoughts, Li Yu decided to suspend the meager promotion of "The Legend of Zhen Huan", called Hu Chengfei to the office, and then revealed his plan.

After hearing Li Yu's plan, Hu Chengfei's eyes widened.
