Chapter 286: Flattery
How shocking is the small classroom of the world’s richest man?
Anyway, it was only posted for half an hour and the number of reposts exceeded 200,000.

As for the number of fans, it is naturally increasing.

Jiang Banxia was shocked. What was the principle behind this?
Although she had a lot of fans on Weibo at the beginning, they were not very active.

It’s different with short videos. You can watch them without following them, so generally, the ones that attract attention are the ones you like deeply.

She obviously cannot achieve such fan cohesion, and her current number of followers is only over 8 million.

And what about Li Yang? Twenty-six million fans.

The entire Snap has no more than 100 million registered users.

Kuaipai’s creators now earn good incomes. In addition, it has seized the commanding heights of traffic in the fields of game videos and agriculture, rural areas and farmers videos, as well as the atmosphere of beautiful women. The overall quality of short videos is much higher than that of other platforms.

The simple thing is that Kuaipai’s traffic channels are not strong. For example, Douyin relies on Toutiao for traffic, and Toutiao’s traffic has already exceeded 100 million.

They spend more on advertising than Kuaipai, at least $10 billion a year.

However, the funds for Kuaipai have not yet arrived.

Ten billion is still in the fund, and it will not be until April that Kuaipai will have more funds.

"Master Li, please teach me how to shoot a video."

"It's very simple to shoot a video. First of all, you have to be clear about what story your video is telling. There are many kinds of stories. They can be small episodes in life, popular science of personal understanding at the knowledge level, or a display of personal ability. Only by clarifying these first can you know how to shoot a video... The next step is to analyze how to make the content good. There are many kinds of content. If you want to keep it simple and you are beautiful, the easiest thing is to skirt the line. Skipping the line is an eternal theme... If you have knowledge, you can do some popular science, and try to choose topics that are of interest to the public. When sharing your life, you can't simply and directly say how many meals you have eaten in a day and how much work you have done. You should shoot some details of your life."

"In general, it's just like writing a novel. Either readers like to read something thrilling, or readers like to read an interesting story, or readers like to read something lighthearted and funny, or a story that resonates with people or arouses desire...

When playing billiards, you can’t just play billiards. No matter when, the technical flow is a very niche industry. Even if you are at the top of the relevant technical flow, with the blessing of various extra traffic, if you don’t have enough topicality and fun, you still won’t be very popular. "

Jiang Banxia finished listening.

But it’s the same as not listening.

She found it troublesome and simply continued watching her own video.

But as I watched it, I felt something was wrong. The last clip of Li Yang was not cut out at all and was directly put in.

Especially the scene where she begged Li Yang not to cut in the last few sentences, which formed a huge contrast with her serious answer before.

She doesn't mind showing this attitude in front of outsiders, but...

“Ahhh, why didn’t you cut out those last few shots?”

She protested.

Li Yang explained: "Simple popular science will only be watched if you have the blessing of your status. In fact, people will not trust you, nor will they think that what you say is true. Who can't act? Although the last point is not serious, it sublimates the authenticity of this video. Otherwise, how can you get so much attention? What does it have to do with them that you are the richest man in the world? Will you give them money? How much? If you give too little, they won't feel anything. If you give too much, you can't afford it."

Jiang Banxia: "..."

My husband is so awesome!

No matter what it was, after he explained it like this, it seemed that it was something that ordinary people could not imagine.

"Yes, yes, husband, you are right. I will listen to you."

"Hehe, I'm not happy when someone wants me to take a video for her. Let me eat, or I won't take a video for you tomorrow..."

"Okay okay."

……

Jiying Automobile is being delivered.

The first person to get the car was also given a Jiying mobile phone.

The shape is very fashionable and the texture is quite good.

In fact... all the designers Li Yang hired found submissions on the Internet. He did not look for any professionals at all. At most, after the first draft was finalized, he would ask a team to slightly modify some details.

All in all, it cost only a few hundred thousand yuan, including more than 100,000 yuan in patent application fees.

The aesthetic taste of wild designers is really good. Even if most of them are not good enough, you can always find some who are excellent in all aspects.

The most important point is that their thinking is not constrained.

Take color for example, they can submit more than 30 color combinations, and each color combination is quite amazing.

It’s not that big companies can’t afford it, but that the cost for them to do it is too high.

Just like the domestic animation industry, if we really work hard, can domestic animation not be done well? Of course it can!
But there are too many domestic projects and too much funding. It takes several years to complete a project, so their salary increase is not obvious.

Therefore, with a budget of 50 million, they can outsource it with only 2 million. Anyway, there are many wild studios that need to rely on orders to survive. They all work in large companies, so how can they do cheap work? After laying a solid foundation, they just need to make some repairs and get the money easily.

Of course, there are also some products that are related to black money, which is also very common in the entertainment industry.

Otherwise, is it so difficult to make a special effect of fighting spirit turning into a horse? If a small studio can make a special effect, why can't a big group do it?

If you want to repair a road bollard, you can pay the contractor 6,000 yuan and he will do it for you. But if you want to work for a large group, you can't do it without 300,000 yuan after all the approvals.

They will fill the budget with various items such as surveying the surroundings, travel expenses, material inspections, and impacts on traffic…

There is an advantage to doing this, and the advantage is that the process is standardized.

The downside is that it will give more people the opportunity to take advantage of loopholes.

It is naturally great that no one takes advantage of loopholes, and it is both standardized and of high quality.

If someone takes advantage of the loopholes, those big groups will spend tens of millions of dollars to produce an eye-catching animation.

The stylish design of the Jiying mobile phone appeared on the Internet.

After using it once, some people found it great!

Apart from the fact that there are relatively few supported apps, there is nothing wrong with it.

But for real technicians, the Jiying phone is no different from an old-age phone. The fewer ecosystems it supports, the less playability it has.

However, such people are still a minority.

Most people only have about 20 to 30 commonly used apps on their phones.

For the owners of Jiying cars, most people do not have excessive entertainment time, so basic apps are enough.

They prefer the smoothness of the Jiying phone, even if it means sacrificing functionality.

Of course, the most important point is rarity.

Few people use the Jiying mobile phone, but it is popular online and has a high recognition.

There is a fundamental difference between the mobile phone given as a gift when buying a car worth hundreds of thousands of dollars and the generic brand mobile phones. Even though the Jiying mobile phone is a generic brand, it has a certain threshold and not everyone can get it.

Just like the same woven bag, LV's woven bag can be sold for 29,000 yuan.

Is the Jiying car luxurious? Of course it is.

Over the past few years, no one has regretted buying a car.

After seeing the investment income of last year's Jiying car owners, the more than 10,000 users whose ID cards were blacklisted had no choice but to regret.

Even though the market was so bad last year, the income from financial management was still doubled. This year the market is much better, and you will only earn more.

Fifty to sixty thousand people have begun looking forward to opening the blind box on April 4 this year.

The next day, Jiang Banxia uploaded another video.

The shooting scene was still indoors. Li Yang asked, "Wife, recently people on the Internet are saying that young people should just lie down. Since there is no upward channel, they can just fish casually. What do you think of this statement?"

Jiang Banxia: "I think it's both right and wrong. First of all, lying flat is not against the law. As long as the company doesn't fire you, it means you can meet the company's assessment requirements. In this regard, I think lying flat is right. If you can live an easy life, you naturally want to pursue an easy way. But if lying flat will make your life worse, I think it's wrong.

Our company is very young, and the financial industry is considered a high-paying industry. Many people have private accounts on the Internet. When we have private dinners with friends on weekdays, the most common topics are about how work is too tiring and that we don't want to do it anymore.

But when they get to the company, they are more competitive than anyone else. People who work in finance usually have greater ambitions and desires. They feel that their current income is not enough to support their desires, so they will work hard, study hard, and improve their abilities.

But it does not prevent them from saying that they are the "lying flat" group. On the one hand, it shows their attitude of following the mainstream Internet atmosphere. On the other hand... they definitely hope that they have as few competitors as possible. I can't comment too much on this matter. Everyone has their own choice. But I still hope that when you make a choice, don't just make decisions based on the Internet or the people around you, and always follow your heart.

In this world, apart from your parents, wife, and children who want you to become better and better, no one else wants you to become better. Especially friends and relatives... The better you are, the more you will highlight their incompetence. The better you are, the less they feel superior. You should have the most say on this, husband, right?"

Li Yang hurriedly said, "What right do I have to speak?"

"I heard from mom that some of your relatives used to make trouble every year because of a piece of bacon. What about now?"

"Now I am strong, and with strength comes change!"

"That's essentially the case. When you are weak, the stones on the ground will bully you and trip you up. But when you become excellent, the birds passing by will help you and try to lift you higher."

"But for most people, there is no good direction. Even if they can endure hardships, there is no sufficient industry ceiling to support them. They are limited by their connections, resources, education, and experience..."

"Well... traditional industries do have very limited resources, but emerging industries are good. For example, what I am trying to do recently is to become an internet celebrity. The internet celebrity industry contains many opportunities, and this track is still lacking in resources."

"Can you talk about what aspects are lacking in detail?"

"I'm still in the process of summarizing it. I'll tell you when I've thought it through..."

……

Jiang Banxia gained four million followers in two days.

Then she started to pester Li Yang and asked him to plan the content for the internet celebrity track for her.

She felt that what Li Yang said was definitely right. No matter who it was, if they did what Li Yang said, they would definitely gain something.

Even if you don't have much talent, you won't do badly.

The internet celebrity industry is indeed a very large industry, and it is a track that covers the entire population.

Li Yang is definitely a leader in this field, he knows the Internet really well.

As the Chinese New Year was approaching, Li Yang had nothing to do. Jiang Banxia kept pestering him, so he could only write down some useful information.

Before I knew it, the manuscript had more than 20,000 words.

Jiang Banxia felt that he would not be able to finish reading, so he asked someone in the company to make a few long videos for him.

It takes quite some time.

In fact, after watching it, she felt that she could find a career as an internet celebrity.

But the main business is still better, at least this industry makes money.

The money I earn from being an internet celebrity is not enough to spend on my husband.

Wanliu Capital is doing well this year. Excluding the QDII fund, its scale has exceeded 400 billion yuan and is heading towards 450 billion yuan.

In half a year, the overall floating profit was more than 20 points and the net value increased by 30 points.

The company has already compiled last year's annual report. The second quarter made the most money, and the third and fourth quarters also made a lot. There was not much money in the first quarter, just the management fee of the QDII fund.

The second quarter was the time for liquidation, and all the profits were immediately attributed to the company's account.

In the third and fourth quarters, the performance was supported by the management fees and handling charges of the four funds she was in charge of and the QDII fund that Li Yang was in charge of.

The four funds she is in charge of, even if calculated based on an average size of 400 billion, have annual management fees, handling fees, and subscription fees of around 10 billion, with an average quarterly revenue of more than 2 billion.

The QDII fund that Li Yang is in charge of is even more terrifying. I don’t know if it is due to quantification, but its net value has doubled in just nine months.

That's 30 billion US dollars, not a small amount of money.

Even though the scale of U.S. stocks is huge, if converted, it is equivalent to investing more than 40 billion in A shares, which is not a huge amount of money.

But being able to achieve such a profit is still quite incredible.

Jiang Banxia looked at the data there, mainly because Nvidia's stock price rose by 125% from August last year to February this year. Last year, Nvidia's stock price was cut in half, so from the annual line, Nvidia didn't rise much last year. But Wanliu Capital entered the market at the lowest point of Nvidia.

Nvidia alone added $2 billion in unrealized profits to the fund.

Jiang Banxia was still a little scared, afraid that this fund would make too much money.

90% of the money they earn now belongs to them, and is considered Li Yang's profit. After all, the amount of funds outside at the beginning was only billion US dollars.

With various management fees and the like, their share is only 10%.

90% of the proceeds would be $ billion.

She had talked to Jiang Baichuan on the phone these two days and knew what Li Yang had said to Jiang Baichuan some time ago.

As it turned out, Li Yang was not talking nonsense.

If he wants to do private equity, all the money he earns will be his, and there is no need to share it with others.

It's not just the money earned in foreign markets, but also the money earned in domestic markets.

Li Yang can even develop quantitative programs for US stocks, so A-shares are not difficult.

It’s just that Li Yang doesn’t want to withdraw too much money from A-shares to avoid making A-shares illiquid.

Only Jiang Banxia knew how much money Li Yang should have earned.

If he hadn't invested in so many losing businesses, he would have at least 500 billion in cash in his hands now.

The national treasury might not even have as much money as he does.

Li Yang went out for a while and when he came back, he was carrying a bunch of things in his hands.

"Why did you buy so many snacks? We have enough at home."

Jiang Banxia wanted to go over to help but Li Yang didn't let her.

"These are all benefits given by the company to employees. I am also an employee, so it is normal for me to have one. Besides, they are all self-branded products, so I have to try them to see how they taste."

"Then I'll try it too."

"I brought it back specially for you to satisfy your craving. Don't worry, I have personally inspected all the processing and production rooms. There is absolutely no problem."

Although Li Yang is not an expert, at least he has seen the processing process and given clear instructions.

The number of food processing and production rooms of Lvshui Group in several nearby counties has expanded to more than 60, and it has recruited more than 4,000 people from nearby counties, with a starting monthly salary of 6,000 yuan.

There are a lot of cameras in the workshop. Anyone who doesn't operate according to the regulations will be fired the next day.

Losing money is certain. With more than 60 production rooms, the annual output value is 500 to 600 million yuan, which indirectly drives the income security of tens of thousands of people downstream. Even if it is sold at a loss, only about 400 million yuan is sold a year, and there are still hundreds of millions of products left as inventory.

It can only be distributed to employees during festivals.

Whether it is Jiying Automobile, MoYu, or Kuaipai, all of them must enter the market to purchase.

It doesn't cost much, just don't let those products go to waste.

This is just the Lushui Group. The Fuguang Group in Jiangbei is even larger. Just in the self-operated food processing sector, he and Jiang Banxia lose about 400 million yuan a year.

Even though four Green Water Plazas have been built, the number of people still cannot be absorbed.

Even if all nine were built, it would still be difficult given the consumption power of nearby counties.

Jiang Banxia enjoyed the meal very much, especially the spicy and sour boneless chicken feet.

Li Yang asked, "Do you know that your Fuguang Group is losing money now? Just this bite of yours is equivalent to causing Fuguang Group to lose 10 million."

Jiang Banxia said nonchalantly: "It's okay, it's okay. The number of employed people has increased, the wages have also been raised, and the food is delicious. That's enough."

"Hey, I'm just trying to flatter you, but you take it seriously?" Li Yang couldn't help but hit Jiang Banxia.

"Oh my, what are you talking about, husband? Even though I played a small role, what's yours is mine. Besides, you're my husband, so what's wrong with flattering me? But you still have to be careful not to get it in my eyes. My eyes are quite sensitive, and it feels like something has gotten into them and I can't wash it out. Even my eye drops can't get them in..."
