Reborn in 2014, getting rich from the World Cup

The next day.

Banquet Hall.

A famous luxury restaurant in Jiangcheng.

"Mr. Yang."

"Mr. Cheng."

Yang Zheng and Cheng Lijie greeted each other.

At this time, Cheng Lijie no longer had the high-spirited spirit he had nearly a year ago. He looked much calmer, even a little depressed.

This is a typical symptom of being beaten by society.

Therefore, whether a person is mature or not does not depend on his physical age, but on his social experience.

The more experiences you have and the broader your knowledge, the harder it is to keep your original intention, which is what we call "growing up".

This is the case with Yang Zheng.

From being a nouveau riche when he was reborn a year ago, he has now become a qualified capitalist.

The same is true for Cheng Lijie.

A proud young talent who started his business a year ago.

At that time, he knew that Yang Zheng was a "second-generation" with a powerful background, and everyone looked down on him.

In the end, they were all impressed by Yang Zheng's drinking capacity.

But now?

A smiling face.

A slightly bowed posture.

He has also become a qualified businessman.

"I've been wanting to have a drink with Mr. Yang again for a long time, but I didn't expect it would take almost a year."

Cheng Lijie began to exchange pleasantries in a familiar manner.

Yang Zheng smiled but said nothing, adjusting his posture.

He knew the purpose of Cheng Lijie's meeting with him - to attract investment.

A year ago, Cheng Lijie had the temperament of someone who would not bow down to money.

But now, it has realized the importance of "rice".

During this year, Dousha TV has developed smoothly and now basically sits firmly at the top of the game live streaming field.

But Cheng Lijie himself was obviously not living so comfortably, and the hair on his head was obviously thinning out.

Because 2015 can be said to be the most turbulent year in the live streaming industry.

At the end of 2014, YY Game Live was officially renamed Maoya Live, and fully entered the field of game live streaming.

In February 2015, Dragon Lord TV was launched.

It directly signed the exclusive domestic live broadcast rights for seven teams from neighboring South Korea.

It also received investment from Penguin and obtained the live broadcast rights for more than 30 game events, attracting the attention of a large number of game players.

At this time, Dousha TV is already in a dangerous situation with wolves on the left and tigers on the right.

But that’s not all.

Recently, it has been confirmed that the well-known second-generation prince will enter the live broadcast field.

This is another dragon running across the river.

So even though Dousha TV seized the initiative, it still sits in the position of big brother.

But she was being watched covetously by three muscular men with backgrounds.

Cheng Lijie couldn't help but panic.

In fact.

In its previous life, in the second half of 2015, Dousha TV almost didn’t survive.

There were even incidents of delayed salary payments for anchors.

Then in March 2016, it accepted US$100 million in funding led by Penguin Capital.

After this round of financing, Dousha TV's valuation was only around 5 million US dollars.

In other words, Cheng Lijie released 20% of his shares at that time.

With Cheng Lijie's overbearing personality, he would never make such a big decision unless he was pushed to a certain extent.

Now it is July and we have entered the second half of the year.

Dousha TV’s funds are probably stretched to the limit.

So Yang Zheng easily guessed the purpose of Cheng Lijie's meeting with him.

He originally planned to refuse directly.

There are two reasons:

The second is Dousha TV, whose final outcome is destined to be decline.

So Yang Zheng had never even thought about investing in Dousha TV before.

Cheng Lijie couldn't afford the signing fees of Zhang Feifei and Zhou Mei at the time, so he chose to pay with shares.

Yang Zheng also thought of investing some money to make some quick money.

But he certainly won't be shooting too much.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to cash out and you may end up with a lot of trouble.

The second is that the development of Dousha TV is inseparable from the support of Penguin.

Even if you want to develop game live streaming in the country, you cannot do without the support of Penguin.

By 2024, when Yang Zheng was reborn.

Dousha TV basically survives by binding some big anchors with long-term contracts and obtaining the live broadcast rights of some events from Penguin Games.

Penguin’s shareholding in Dousha TV exceeds 40%.

Yang Zheng was afraid that if he intervened now, he would seize Penguin's share of Dousha TV, which would cause uncontrolled changes.

But after careful consideration.

He also felt that this might be something that could be done.

So in the end I agreed to meet with Cheng Lijie.

Yang Zheng brought Shen Yixin with him.

Cheng Lijie brought three people with him, one man and two women.

The man is his assistant.

One of the women is a translator and the other is a host.

The South Korean female anchor who signed a contract to join Dousha TV at the beginning of the month is named Zhao Shixi.

On the night of the premiere, the popularity of the live broadcast room exceeded one million.

She has the potential to become the "new number one shark fighter."

In Yang Zheng's opinion, Zhao Shixi's appearance is at most 80 points.

But as for the female anchor from South Korea, I can only say that those who understand will understand.

In addition, Zhao Shixi, also known as "Zhao Exi", also has an A4 waist.

The amazing body proportions, coupled with the South Korean female anchor's superb...performance ability.

In 2015, when the live streaming trend had not yet been rectified, this was indeed very eye-catching and very profitable.

In his previous life, Yang Zheng was also deeply attracted to it for a while.

If it weren’t for the experience of ten stunning beauties standing in a row a few nights ago.

He might even be in the mood for a picnic.

But after seeing that kind of big scene.

He no longer had any interest in things of this level.

So Cheng Lijie praised Zhao Shixi in various ways.

Zhao Shixi straightened her back and showed her advantages.

Then the translator helped her express her admiration for Yang Zheng.

Yang Zheng interrupted directly: "Mr. Cheng, let's get to the point. I don't have time for small talk."

The box suddenly became quiet.

After a while.

Cheng Lijie smiled awkwardly and said:

"Yang Zheng likes to be direct, so I'll just say it directly."

"Mr. Yang is a shareholder of Dousha. I believe he has noticed the recent development of Dousha."

"But the live streaming industry has been highly competitive recently, and Dousha is currently experiencing rapid development."

"Although there is some profit, overall, the income is still not enough to cover the expenses."

Summary: Lack of money.

Yang Zheng asked directly: "How much capital does Mr. Cheng need, and how many shares can be released?"

Cheng Lijie was stunned when he heard this, obviously not expecting him to be so direct.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Only when there is a sense of inequality in status will the courtesies be omitted.

Just like he treats his subordinates.

But a year ago, Yang Zheng was still willing to drink with him.

I must not fail!

With this determination.

Cheng Lijie put aside the emotions in his heart and continued to smile:

"As for funds, of course the more the better. This time, I'm willing to transfer 10% of my shares to Mr. Yang."

Yang Zheng glanced at him and said nothing.

Cheng Lijie paused and spoke again: "3 million."

"Ah."

Yang Zheng chuckled: "Boss Cheng, do you think I'm offline?"

Cheng Lijie lowered his head in silence.

Yang Zheng was telling him: I know the current predicament of Dousha TV.
