Chapter 1130: Here Comes the Rabbit

Mocha Helo is a big plan that needs long-term promotion, especially after entering the mobile Internet era, it may become a super app that can focus on all Internet services.

In the short term, Ziweixing will do two things.

First, find a suitable experimental sample and make a sample for developers and entrepreneurs.

Second, establish the concept of paid services.

From a larger perspective, the domestic market can even be used as a test field to promote the strategy of Helo and accumulate experience.

Once done, go conquer the world!

Just like the relationship between Douyin and TikTok.

Do Douyin in China first, and after accumulating enough experience and product design concepts, go abroad to compete with international giants.

The domestic Internet market is very savage. There are three major BAT giants. When they compete, they often use unscrupulous means. Vicious competition behaviors such as blocking, blocking, and "choosing one from the other" abound.

Douyin can thrive in this environment, and even do better than BAT.

After going abroad, you can’t use mandatory methods such as blocking and “choosing one of the two” in the international market. When you compete with Silicon Valley giants such as Google, Facebook, and Microsoft, you will feel as light as a swallow and like a fish in water. .

However, this cannot be rushed.

Try to finalize the YY version of Helo within half a year.

On the weekend, Zhou Buqi flew southward, Shi Jinglin and Xue Baoshan also followed, mainly to see their precious daughter Niannian, the little girl can finally babble, and can say "Mom", "Auntie", Words like "grandmother". It's a pity that I can't call him Dad. This made Zhou Buqi very ashamed and planned to spend more time with his daughter.

In addition, it is necessary to determine the choice of the headquarters of the Modu Branch—Ziweixing International Building.

Zhou Buqi accepted Lao Zhang's suggestion, gave up his plan to build a building, and looked for a ready-made top-level office building that had just been built. Go buy a few floors, and then find a relationship to name it.

For example, the Sohu Building where Ziweixing's headquarters is now located was originally called Weixin International Building. Later, Sohu took a fancy to it, and no matter it is Shili, Zhongguancun or Tsinghua University, they are all actively operating. I hope Hong Kong businessmen can cooperate and change the name to Sohu Building.

How tough is Sohu's brand.

Sohu Building stands in the Tsinghua Science and Technology Park, which is a kind of aura that complements each other. If it is called Weixin International Building, its influence is obviously not as great as Sohu Building.

Including the Alipay Building in Shanghai, it is also this model.

Two days ago, Zhou Buqi had sent Vice President Guo Dan to Shanghai to talk to the local city leaders.

As expected, all parties are very welcome and are actively advancing.

Then, I ran to Lujiazui, the most prosperous and central area of ​​Shanghai.

If Ziweixing wants to become an international technology enterprise, what it wants to build is an international building. If it is remote, the location must be in the center of the center, and it must be prominent and eye-catching.

Then, I really found a suitable building that had just been completed!

Although it was Sunday, the leaders did not have a holiday, so they sent a highly qualified escort team to accompany Zhou Buqi and his party on a field trip, right by the river.

The famous luxury residential area Tomson Yipin is not far away.

After the past, Zhou Buqi could not speak for a long time.

He is very familiar with this building!

It can be called one of the landmark buildings in Lujiazui. It was called Hopson International Building at first, but later it was renamed Mirae Asset Building under the cooperation of various parties.

Secretary-General Zheng, who accompanied him, simply introduced: "The planned name of this building is Hopson International Building. The Shangri-La Hotel is to the north, and the Citibank Building is to the south. The Aurora Building is to the west, and the Financial Development Zone is to the east. This building please The construction was carried out by an American design team, which started construction in 2004 and was just completed last week."

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "It was only completed last week?"

"Yes, or it's a coincidence."

"It really is fate."

Zhou Buqi nodded, looked up at the towering building, very satisfied.

A building of this scale is no longer just a requirement for an A-grade office building. As a landmark building, it needs to have specific implication and connotation in it, as well as an artistic design.

The building has a total of 33 floors, with an average area of ​​1,800 square meters per floor, which is 1,000 square meters smaller than that of Sohu Building.

Now that it is named Ziweixing International Building, it is equivalent to a business card. Since it is a business card, it should not be too shabby, and it must show the strength of Ziwei Star in many aspects such as style and decoration.

You can't simply build a concrete floor, scrape the white, and then put on a desk and start working like many Internet companies.

This is an international financial center, and there will be too many foreigners and leaders coming to visit, investigate, study, and research.

This is not only the image of Ziweixing, but also represents the image of Shanghai and the country to a large extent.

Zhou Buqi did some simple calculations, and felt that the office area should not be too crowded, it should be casual enough, spacious enough and upscale, "Secretary General, how much has been pre-sold in the building?"

"More than half, and most of them are foreign companies. The city is regulating here, otherwise it is likely to be snatched up by foreign companies."

"Yes, the supply of the top office buildings in China is still in short supply, and the economic strength of foreign companies is the strongest. In the capital, office buildings with better locations can't be rented first-hand, and they have to change hands several times before they can be rented."

Secretary-General Zheng said with a smile: "This building is half state-owned and half private, and the city has been focusing on it. There are too many foreigners here, and the management order must be regulated."

Zhou Buqi took it very seriously, and said: "Well, this must be guaranteed. The success of the Olympic Games has almost restored the grand occasion of the Tang Dynasty. The omissions in property management should not make foreigners look at it. joke."

Secretary-General Zheng assured: "You can rest assured that the design team, construction team, and future property management team here will operate with the highest level of team combination in accordance with the international management model. This building will be a dazzling pearl. The century-old buildings on the Bund shine together."

Zhou Buqi nodded, stopped to watch for a long time, then turned around and asked, "Guo Dan, what do you think?"

Guo Dan said with a smile: "I think it's very suitable. This is the riverside. We choose high-rise buildings, and we can have a bird's-eye view of the entire Bund river view."

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "Then it's settled!"

...

The plan is finalized, and the specific details will not be involved until the week is over.

The total investment of the building is 1.8 billion yuan, with an average of 60 million yuan per floor. Ziweixing bought 5 floors, plus the naming rights of the building... It is estimated that 400-500 million can be won properly.

Guo Dan went to deal with specific operations, while Zhou Buqi was called by Shi Yuzhu.

Amazing good news from America!

Financial markets are about to crash!

Entering August, the U.S. financial market took a sharp turn for the worse. The five major investment banks are about to die. Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley have changed the nature of their investment banks to bank holding companies, while Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch are already hanging by a thread!

U.S. stocks have already started to plummet.

The long and short battle has begun.

The bulls believe that the federal government and the Federal Reserve will introduce strong measures to rescue the market and save the order of the financial market. The short side believes that at the level of the federal government and the Federal Reserve, they cannot balance the current near-collapse financial landscape.

This year, Bear Stearns, one of the five largest investment banks in the United States, has collapsed.

Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch didn't seem to be able to survive either.

Zhou Buqi is naturally also paying close attention to the situation in the United States.

His personal account has changed from 330 million US dollars to 970 million US dollars. Since August, it has increased by 120%. In Ziweixing's account, the $1.2 billion has also become $2.6 billion, an increase of more than 100%.

Shi Yuzhu also participated in this operation, and while he was excited, he was also unavoidably frightened, "It's almost enough, why don't we withdraw?"

Zhou Buqi glanced at him, "Withdraw? How to withdraw? The investment agreement is a 3-month closed operation, do you want to breach the contract?"

Shi Yuzhu's eyes lit up, "Even if you breach the contract, you can still earn 80%."

"Suppress the bold, starve the timid. How much did you invest? 150 million US dollars? Ziweixing invested 1.2 billion US dollars. Just wait! Don't worry!"

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, not giving him room to bargain.

He initiated this investment operation, and he is the president.

Shi Yuzhu asked: "Do you think the financial market will collapse?"

Zhou Buqi said: "The fund trader we are looking for is a hungry wolf on Wall Street, and he has invested all his property in it. It doesn't matter whether it crashes or not, as long as he doesn't withdraw, we can wait."

Seeing that he persisted, Shi Yuzhu didn't say anything more. He just thought that this kid is really a person who can do big things. 1.2 billion US dollars was invested... Now it has doubled, and he can still be so calm. It's really amazing.

"By the way, someone dragged the relationship to me and wants to see you."

"Who is it, your old subordinate again?"

"Not this time, it's 51."

"ah?"

Zhou Buqi was quite surprised.

Shi Yuzhu sighed, "At first I agreed to invest in 51, but after listening to your suggestion, I rejected them. I am very sorry. 51's current cash flow is very tight, and it has not been able to start a new one for a long time. round of financing."

Zhou Buqi raised his eyebrows, "Why do you want me?"

Shi Yuzhu said: "It seems to be about Rainbow Helo. I want to make peace with you. I guess they are worried that you will block Rainbow Helo at any time."

Zhou Buqi said, "I'm not familiar with them."

Shi Yuzhu said helplessly: "I'll go with you, this time... Let me tell you the truth, 51 has found a new investor. But the investor has a request, to reduce the possible risks of Rainbow Helo in the future. If 51 can't get financing, it's really because of the two of us that we went bankrupt, and I don't want to be a sinner."

Zhou Buqi said angrily: "Don't pull me as a backstop! It's you who don't want to invest, and it has nothing to do with me!"

Having said that, a different thought came to my mind.

Meet the 51 people?

Talk about Rainbow Helo?

Good thing!

Isn't this an important part of advancing the "Magic Reform Helo Plan"?

Take the initiative to come to the door?

Good!

From the looks of it, waiting for the rabbit was successful, and the rabbit really came!
