Everyone has six months!

Everyone was immediately excited when they heard the news. They were immediately thrown aside because they had not won the special prize before.

Although a house is definitely much more valuable than any year-end bonus, the house is too weak after all, and thousands of people draw lottery, few people will really think they will definitely draw it. This is just a wish. It is the same as when buying a lottery. If you can win, you will naturally be better. If you don’t win, you won’t have too much psychological gap.

But the year-end bonus is different. Everyone has it. The most important thing is that the major subsidiaries of Toutiao are all high-quality stocks in the future. Even employees like them cannot buy it. They can only wait until the year-end bonus is issued to see how much the company issues.

If the stocks that are given a 6-month year-end bonus this time are listed in the future, it is possible to increase tenfold.

After Zhou Yujie stepped down, Chen Wei, who won the special prize, sang a song "Ten Years", and the audience in the audience did not care, but instead applauded and cheered several times.

Until nine o'clock in the evening, the annual meeting ends.

Some people who have drunk alcohol are inconvenient to go back, and Four Seasons Hotel has also prepared a suite.

Zhou Yujie didn't like drinking either. He could do whatever he wanted to drink at ordinary banquets within the company, but this time he drank a little with Mayor Wu and a group of leaders in the district, and it was still white and authentic Moutai.

Drinking table culture is the tradition of the older generation. It is estimated that after more than ten years, white wine will slowly be abandoned by young people.

Although he has his own driver, Zhou Yujie is also very interested in the presidential suite at Four Seasons Hotel. It happened that the presidential suite was empty today, so he stayed there. The price for one night was 58888.

However, it has to be said that the level is indeed very luxurious. The suite is located on the highest floor of Four Seasons Hotel. There is only one room on the first floor. The layout is regular. You can see the entire Shanghu, Huangpu River and countless night buildings from four directions. The platform outside is 200 square meters and also has a transparent swimming pool, which allows you to swim while swiming the whole city.

And the next morning, after breakfast, a Rolls-Royce Phantom will deliver guests to anywhere in the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

When he arrived at the Toutiao headquarters, Lin Youde was already waiting for him downstairs.

"It's really comfortable to sit up with Rolls-Royce," Zhou Yujie said with a smile.

Lin Youde said: "Mr. Zhou, your car will arrive soon."

"It's almost the same, it will be air transported after the New Year." Zhou Yujie nodded and said.

In the middle of last year, Zhou Yujie ordered a bulletproof version of Rolls-Royce from the British Rolls-Royce, which will be Zhou Yujie's car in the future.

In fact, compared to safety, the top Volvo is no worse than Rolls-Royce, but one thing is that Volvo can never compare to Rolls-Royce or Bentley, which is the possibility of avoiding accidents.

As long as you have a little research on the car, you will consciously stay away from the license plates of Rolls-Royce or Bentley when driving, and slow down. After all, if you touch it a little, a house may be gone.

This can greatly improve the safety of luxury cars. For the environment in Shanghai, the probability of any vicious attacks is very low, and unintentional accidents are more likely to occur. A super luxury car can avoid such a thing.

Customized bulletproof Rolls-Royce takes about half a year to complete, which is the result of an additional price increase, otherwise the speed will be slower.

After arriving at the office, Zhou Yujie smiled and said, "Everyone is still very excited just after passing through the work area."

Lin Youde said: "Of course, I must be very happy to have so many stocks at once."

"It's good that this is the case. It will be much more convenient for us to recruit top talents in the future." Zhou Yujie nodded and said.

With the explosion of mobile Internet, the business volume of major Internet companies has also increased rapidly, and talents in the Internet industry have immediately become more expensive. This is why in the 1920s, the newly graduated internship employees of large factories also started at 300,000 to 400,000, and it may reach one million in a few years.

As for the stocks issued, they are actually shares in the equity pool. These stocks were originally intended for employees. In the Internet industry, if you want to develop rapidly, in addition to relying on venture capital, employees are also a must. Even if the company develops stably, the benefits that should be given must not be missed.

Inside the company, AppTrea has not raised funds, but like Toutiao, it has established a separate equity pool and slowly distributed it to internal employees.

As for the game department and music department, it mainly uses cash rewards, and some outstanding employees can be assigned to some stocks of AppTao or Toutiao.

Lin Youde continued, "Zhou Juan and Wang Jianjun are here."

"Okay, please come in." Zhou Yujie nodded and said.

With Toutiao's refreshing acquisition of 56 video, Zhou Juan and Wang Jianjun have moved the first batch of employees to Shanghai, and their headquarters is on the 16th floor of Toutiao Company, but the subsequent relocation of servers is involved, and it will take some time to process it.

The rented this large office building was for future business expansion.

After a while, Zhou Juan and Wang Jianjun both came to the office. Zhou Yujie brought a group of people to the reception area and said, "Let's sit down, today I just want to discuss with you the future development strategy direction of 56.com. Let's discuss and exchange how to implement it specifically and determine it after the New Year."

After they sat down, Zhou Juan said, "Mr. Zhou, just say what you think directly. Let's just listen. I and Wang Jianjun have been exploring the development direction for several years, but their achievements are getting worse and worse."

Zhou Yujie nodded and said, "The problems with 56.com are one of the shortages of traffic, one of the shortages of content, and the other is the dark history of the past.

Because what happened in 2008 caused you to be isolated from capital, lose your development opportunities, and have no money to raise funds, so you can't make content. Then the content lost its traffic and it disappeared.

In terms of traffic, Toutiao on the APP can attract traffic, and I have discussed it with Li Yanhong of Baidu that you can buy high-quality traffic for you 56 on the PC side.

But no matter how much traffic is, you can’t do without content, and you can’t retain users. So the first thing we have to do now is to make content and make good content.”

Wang Jianjun said: "Mr. Zhou, we also know the importance of content. The most profitable thing on 56.com is the talent show [I Show], and there is a little popularity. We used to rely on the profits of [I Show] to do other programs, but we all lost in the end."

"The money problem is indeed a big problem. The video field is too expensive. I can support it, but I won't invest it for a long time." Zhou Yujie nodded and said, "So, if you want more money to develop, you have to rely on yourself."

"Don't you?" Zhou Juan thought for a while and said, "Actually Zhou is going to introduce venture capital to us?"

In the video field, if you want to develop in the early stage, you must have venture capital funds. The same is true for 56.com. However, after 2008, all capitals were not optimistic about 56. After not being able to raise funds, Zhou Juan could only rely on the 30 million US dollars in the account to last until now.

But it is different now. Toutiao acquired 56, which has supported traffic. In addition, more than three years have passed since 2008, and the impact has basically disappeared. If 56 raises funds now, there will definitely be venture capital interested.

Zhou Yujie said: "Venture investors must introduce them, but not now. With the current situation of 56.com, how much funds can they introduce?"

Similar to Sequoia Capital and IDG, venture capital firms with good relationship with Zhou Yujie, would definitely be willing to invest if 56.com raises funds, but their valuation will definitely not be very high, and there will not be many shares sold in the first round of investment.

In this way, it would be good to raise $20 to 30 million, but $20 to 30 million is a drop in the money-burning war in the video industry.

Zhou Yujie took out a document from the drawer, handed it to Zhou Juan, and said, "This is a movie script given to me by a friend of mine. I think it's good, so I'll shoot it first."
