Rebirth of wealth and freedom starts from the World Cup

On the eve of the Spring Festival, Panda TV, led by Principal Wang, set off a huge wave of traffic on the Internet.

Principal Wang, who carries the dual halo of "the son of the richest man" and "the national husband", entered the live broadcast industry in a high-profile manner. The Panda TV he devoted himself to creating has successfully attracted big-name anchors such as SKY Li Xiaofeng, Hearthstone Prisoner, and Sol Jun to join since its launch.

Later, Panda TV received support and help from first-line stars such as JJ Lin, Lu Han, Chen He, Lin Gengxin, Angelababy, etc. At the same time, e-sports players PDD, Ruofeng and Principal Wang’s own IG team also signed contracts with Panda TV, adding more star power to it.

Especially when all members of the S5 champion HG.G team signed with Panda TV, its popularity reached a new high.

Since the beginning of this year, leading Internet companies such as Tencent, Baidu, Alibaba, and 360 have also begun to enter the live broadcast industry. According to statistics, the number of domestic live broadcast platforms has once soared to more than 300, and the entire mainland live broadcast industry has entered a new era of "hundreds of broadcast wars".

As the market prospects continue to be promising, a large amount of capital has begun to flow into this emerging industry. Panda TV has successfully obtained a round A financing of 360 million yuan from investors such as LeTV and Qihoo 6.5 due to its strong influence.

With the help of capital, Panda TV continues to maintain its rapid development momentum.

On the one hand, we actively explore new areas of game live broadcasting, such as exclusively obtaining the broadcasting rights of major e-sports events such as PGL and SLI (PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds), and signing contracts with top game anchors such as PDD and Ruofeng;

On the other hand, it is also working hard to create its own stars. The live talk shows "Xiaocong Show" and "Hello, Goddess" produced together with Canxing have received extremely high attention.

At the same time, Principal Wang's big-money operations also attracted attention. He spent 2000 million yuan to sign Korean Internet celebrity Yoon So-wan, and then signed popular Korean girl groups T-ara and EXID at a sky-high price of 2 million yuan, making Panda TV's "pan-entertainment platform" strategy gradually take shape.

Data shows that since 2016, Panda TV has been closely following the two leading platforms, Huya and Douyu, in all major indicators, and has firmly ranked among the top three in the industry.

However, when Panda TV was booming, Zhao Zixuan made an unexpected decision - he asked Principal Wang to sell his shares and leave.

This made Principal Wang feel very confused, because Panda TV's development prospects were bright and the money-making effect of the live broadcast industry was obvious.

If Zhao Zixuan chooses to withdraw at this time, it would be tantamount to giving away the wealth he has obtained.

This is abnormal!

After the A round of financing, Panda TV successfully obtained 6.5 million yuan in capital injection, causing its valuation to soar to 24 billion yuan.

This round of financing was led by LeTV, with an investment amount of up to 3.6 million yuan. After that, LeTV will hold approximately 15% of the shares of Panda TV, and Principal Wang will still maintain his position as the company's largest shareholder.

Although the news that Zhao Zixuan wanted to sell his shares quickly reached investors such as LeTV and 360, and he received a sincere offer from 360, he did not sell his shares directly to 360 due to his deep friendship with Principal Wang.

Instead, he decided to discuss the valuation with Principal Wang first. If Principal Wang was willing to pay the same price as 360, he would transfer the shares to Principal Wang first.

This move not only demonstrated Zhao Zixuan's business ethics, but also highlighted his deep friendship with Principal Wang.

But unfortunately, Principal Wang did not ultimately accept the same offer as 360 to buy back the shares.

After all, Zhao Zixuan had only 1000 million yuan to acquire 20% of Panda TV's shares, and now Panda TV's valuation has soared to 24 billion yuan. Such a price gap makes it difficult for Principal Wang to make a choice between commercial interests and personal feelings.

Principal Wang sat in his spacious office with a frown on his face.

He knew that Zhao Zixuan wanted to sell his shares in Panda TV, which made him feel a little uneasy. Panda TV was a project he had put a lot of effort into, and he didn't want to see any changes.

"Maybe I could try to talk to him."

Principal Wang was playing with his phone, muttering to himself, "Let's see if we can buy back these shares at a reasonable price."

So, he decisively called Zhao Zixuan and invited him to come to the office for a detailed discussion.

Zhao Zixuan soon came to the office with his assistant Huang Yingying. The two sides sat on the sofa and began a long negotiation.

"Zixuan, you should know what Panda TV means to me."

Principal Wang met Zhao Zixuan's eyes and persuaded him earnestly: "I hope you can sell these shares back to me at a price of 8000 million."

1000 million becoming 8000 million is an 8-fold increase in value, and the return on investment is already very high.

However, Zhao Zixuan still frowned, he was obviously not satisfied with the price.

He shook his head and said, "Principal, I understand your feelings towards Panda TV, but 8000 million is too low. The shares I hold are worth a fortune, you can't let me suffer a loss."

Principal Wang sighed, he knew that Zhao Zixuan was right.

But he still tried to persuade the other party: "Zixuan, think about the friendship between us and the future development of Panda TV. Do you want to see it affected by the share dispute?"

Zhao Zixuan was silent for a moment, then shook his head firmly: "Principal, I am very grateful for your care and trust in me. But business is business, and I cannot make a decision that harms my own interests because of personal feelings."

The negotiations reached a deadlock and both men fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, Zhao Zixuan's cell phone rang, breaking the brief silence.

He glanced at the screen, then stood up: "I'll take a call first."

Zhao Zixuan walked to the window and answered the phone. The voice of the 360 ​​representative came from the receiver: "Mr. Zhao, we are very interested in the Panda TV shares you hold. We are willing to pay a higher price than the market price to acquire these shares. I hope you can consider it."

Zhao Zixuan's heart moved. He turned to look at Principal Wang who was still in deep thought, then took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I will seriously consider it."

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Zixuan returned to the sofa and sat down: "Let me be frank, I just received a very attractive offer."

He paused, "It's a representative from 360 calling."

Principal Wang was shocked when he heard this: "How much did they pay?"

He knew that 360 had been eyeing Panda TV, but he didn't expect the other party to act so decisively.

"This number is much higher than the market price." Zhao Zixuan held up three fingers and said frankly, "Principal, I'm sorry, but I can't refuse this price."

He looked into Principal Wang's eyes and said helplessly, "I hope you can understand my decision."

"3 million!? Mr. Zhou is really willing to spend so much money!" Principal Wang sighed, then nodded: "I understand your choice. Since you have made up your mind, I will not say anything more." 3 million yuan is not a difficult amount for Principal Wang to come up with.

But his father only gave him 5 million yuan as an initial capital for starting his business. Now he hasn't made much money yet, but he has to ask his family for money again, and it's 3 million yuan. No matter how you look at it, it's not justifiable!
Zhao Zixuan also saw Principal Wang's helplessness, and took the initiative to stand up and said, "That's it, I have to catch a plane back to my hometown tonight, can we meet again when I come back?"

Principal Wang also stood up and sighed, "Have a good trip. I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future."

Zhao Zixuan nodded slightly, "There will be a chance. I owe you a favor this time. If you need anything in the future, you can always ask me for help."

The two smiled at each other, then shook hands and said goodbye.

In this way, Zhao Zixuan finally sold his shares in Panda TV to 3 Company at a high price of 360 million yuan.

Although this share transfer turmoil made Principal Wang feel a little lost and regretful, he also understood the cruelty and ruthlessness of the business world.

He was determined to continue to work hard to run Panda TV and make it a more brilliant platform. Zhao Zixuan left the office with a satisfied smile and started his new business journey.

On the way to the airport, Li Shaojin was driving in front and Huang Yingying was sitting next to Zhao Zixuan. She couldn't understand why Zhao Zixuan wanted to sell his shares in Panda TV.

Because it is obvious that Panda TV is still in its growth stage and has huge room for future development. Even with conservative estimates, its valuation is very likely to exceed the 10 billion mark.

Is it really a wise choice to sell Panda TV shares at such a good time?
"Boss, why are you selling Panda TV shares at a low price? Has its commercial value reached its limit?"

Huang Yingying couldn't help but ask curiously.

Zhao Zixuan turned around and glanced at Huang Yingying, who was full of doubts, and explained with a smile: "Yingying, you asked a good question. In fact, I sold the shares of Panda TV not because I am not optimistic about its development, but because I have more important plans."

"More important plan?" Huang Yingying continued to ask.

"Yes." Zhao Zixuan nodded. "Some of the technology companies I invested in have made new breakthroughs recently, and I need funds to support their development. Moreover, I also saw a new market opportunity, which may require a large amount of capital investment. Therefore, I decided to sell the shares of Panda TV to raise the funds I need."

Huang Yingying nodded thoughtfully after hearing this: "I see, do you think it's worth doing this?"

"worth."

Zhao Zixuan said affirmatively: "Although Panda TV has a good development prospect, I always believe that the most important thing for investment is to be content. Don't think about making the last penny. In the business world, you always need to weigh the pros and cons and make the best decision. When it is time to leave, you must leave decisively. I believe my choice will bring greater returns..."

After hearing this, Huang Yingying couldn't help but admire Zhao Zixuan's foresight and decisiveness.

She knew that Zhao Zixuan was always able to find the best solution in a complex business environment, and he seemed to have never made a wrong judgment.

This wisdom and foresight made Huang Yingying have an inexplicable and crazy blind admiration for Zhao Zixuan.

The car quickly arrived at the airport, and Zhao Zixuan and Huang Yingying got out together.

In the departure hall, Zhao Zixuan turned to Huang Yingying and said, "Yingying, I may be busy for a while when I go back this time. I will leave the affairs of Yixuan Studio to you for the time being. Especially the day after tomorrow is the critical day for the release of "The Richest Man in Xihong City". You must work hard and don't let me down."

Huang Yingying nodded solemnly after hearing this: "Don't worry, Boss, I will do my best and I promise not to let you down!"

Zhao Zixuan smiled and patted Huang Yingying on the shoulder: "I believe in you, come on!"

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the security check, leaving behind a tall figure.

Huang Yingying watched his figure disappear around the corner, and at the same time she secretly made up her mind to work hard and live up to Zhao Zixuan's trust and expectations.

Half an hour later, Huang Yingying drove back home in a Rolls-Royce business car and found her sister Huang Youwei sitting on the sofa, watching TV and waiting for her to come home.

"Yingying, where have you been today? I haven't seen you all day."

Huang Youwei looked at her sister who had just returned home with curiosity.

Huang Yingying changed her shoes, walked lightly to the sofa and sat down, her face filled with unconcealable excitement: "Sister, guess what I went through today?"

"How would I know? You didn't tell me your whereabouts." Huang Youwei turned her head away slightly and said in a deliberately awkward tone.

"You won't believe it if I tell you." Huang Yingying took her sister's hand and began to talk about her experience today. "Do you know Panda TV? It is a live streaming platform that is as famous as Douyu and Huya."

"Well, I heard you say it. What's wrong?" Huang Youwei turned her head puzzledly and looked at her sister's extremely excited face.

"Do you know that BOSS had the foresight to invest in Panda TV last year, spending 1000 million yuan at once and directly acquiring 20% ​​of the shares. Recently, Panda TV completed its A round of financing, and its overall valuation has soared to 24 billion!"

Huang Yingying said nonstop: "And today, the boss sold all his shares. Guess how much money he made? A full 3 million! Can you imagine? From investment to return, it only took a short time, and he made a fortune!"

Huang Youwei listened to her sister's narration, the shock in her heart was like a raging wave, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

She stared at her sister with eyes wide open, as if to confirm whether everything she heard was true: "Is it true? 1000 million turned into 3 million?! Wasn't Panda TV a company that was just established last year?"

"It's absolutely true! I saw it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears. There's no way it can be false!" Huang Yingying said firmly, "Boss's business acumen is really terrifying. My admiration for him is like the endless flow of the river, and like the flooding of the Yellow River that is out of control..."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense." Huang Youwei interrupted her sister's praise with a smile, and then sighed sincerely: "This Zhao Zixuan is really a business genius! It's really not easy for him to have such achievements and vision at such a young age."

"That's right, I also think he's amazing." Huang Yingying nodded repeatedly, "Not only does he have an outstanding business mind, he also treats us employees with great care. I feel really lucky to be able to work under him."

The two sisters chatted like this, and the topic always revolved around Zhao Zixuan and his investment decisions.

Huang Youwei became more and more impressed and surprised by this young boss, and couldn't help but secretly look forward to a chance to take the relationship between her sister and him to a higher level in the future, but this step was obviously not easy to take.

After all, Zhao Zixuan is not a man like Da Qiangzi who can't walk when he sees a beautiful woman. He is naturally wary of women.

If an ordinary girl wants to win him over, it would be difficult to succeed unless she uses some extraordinary means.

Huang Youwei was thinking about her own things silently, but Huang Yingying didn't know her sister's inner thoughts, but she was more determined to follow Zhao Zixuan. She believed that under Zhao Zixuan's leadership, the company would have a better future. (End of this chapter)
