Chapter 1379(1/2)
This time we organized a group to come to Korea mainly for two things.
The first thing is to deal with Jin Beomxiu.
He really hopes to cooperate with Ziweixing. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
However, this is a two-way choice.
His consent is not enough.
Ziweixing also had to recognize him, and he had to undergo a group "interview" with Zhou Buqi, Xu Liangjie, Shen Xiangyang, Lu Qi, and Tang Binchen.
The Korean market is very special.
It is difficult for Ziweixing to develop Korean business by itself, so it can only find an agent. After finding an agent, Ziweixing will provide a variety of resources, technology, experience and industry data to help it develop.
This person must have sufficient ability.
Zhou Buqi is relatively relaxed, like controlling thunder and lightning.
Through Chen Dong in the early stage, he investigated everything.
The identity of Jin Beomxiu was confirmed.
He is the guy who created the "Korean version of Penguin" Kakao Group in the mobile Internet era.
It’s hard to say about his character, I don’t know much about it, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with his personality. He is the material of an entrepreneur. He doesn’t have the pride of “I am the only one in the world” that most Koreans have. He is more traditional, pragmatic, and adequate. of humility.
In his previous life, WeChat was actually modeled after his KakaoTalk, but as he continued to do it, WeChat surpassed it overwhelmingly. Not only did it surpass the number of users, but it also surpassed it in terms of products.
No matter in terms of product design, functional design or underlying technology implementation, WeChat far surpasses kakaotalk. And Penguin Company has used WeChat, a god-level product, to become the center point of the mobile Internet era and the traffic source of the industrialized Internet.
Jin Beomxiu was not annoyed by the other party's imitation, but came to him like a primary school student. He went to Penguin Company many times to seek the truth and learn from experience.
Then, the two parties finally reached a strategic cooperation, obtained Penguin's strategic investment, obtained the technology and industry experience provided by Penguin, and became Penguin's younger brother.
Then, the Korean version of Penguin Group was born.
There are many domestic Internet giants, especially in the mobile Internet era, a large number of large companies have emerged. Penguin has only relied on WeChat and QQ to become a platform center and a traffic distribution place.
Kim Beom-soo is different.
He is invincible in Korea.
What we are playing is Penguin's early business model, which is to follow other people's paths and leave others with no way to go. Relying on Kakaotalk's monopoly position in South Korea, he does what others do, relying on huge traffic and product ecology Kill your opponent.
The style and methods are extremely barbaric.
That's okay too.
In such a small country, as long as you don't step on the red line, the supervision of monopolies is relatively loose. Especially for Internet companies. It is better to cultivate a domestic monopolistic Internet company than to have the market seized by the Internet giants in Silicon Valley, right?
South Korea is a small country. Even if it forms a highly monopolized Internet giant, its market value will only be about US$50 billion.
Without condoning monopoly, strength will not be enough.
If you don’t have enough strength, how can you compete with international giants?
However, he was later taken down by the Blue House in the name of monopoly.
Not because of the Internet, but because of entertainment companies.
After achieving great success in his career, Kim Beom-soo became the richest man in South Korea for a time, and then he wanted to get involved in the entertainment industry and acquire the famous S/M Entertainment Company.
The entertainment industry is the territory of traditional chaebols, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is the Chuxiu Palace in the imperial palace.
After a fight, Jin Fanxiu was finished. Not only did he fail to acquire S/M, he also lost power in Kakao Company. He resigned from the board of directors and management, and became an idle rich man.
But that was more than ten years later.
The current Jin Beomxiu, Zhou Buqi's first impression after seeing him was very good. He was similar to those uncles who play positive characters in Korean movies, with narrow eyes, a little fat, and a kind face.
For lunch, Jin Fanxiu treated everyone to a Korean special meal - Korean barbecue.
It's not a Michelin-rated high-end restaurant, it's just a relatively high-end barbecue restaurant on the roadside. It's relatively popular, noisy, and has a lot of customers.
Zhou Buqi's impression is even better.
I think this guy is very down to earth.
There were nine people in total during the meal, Zhou Buqi, Lu Qi, Shen Xiangyang, Xu Liangjie, Tang Binchen, Jin Fanxiu, Chen Dong, Ning Lu and Sun Wanran.
Go directly to the kang.
There are two baking pans.
Ning Lu and Sun Wanran sat next to Zhou Buqi, opposite Tang Binchen and Chen Dong. This table was more casual.
The other table is the focus.
During the meal, Lu Qi, Shen Xiangyang and Xu Liangjie would have some business and conceptual exchanges with Jin Fanxiu.
Ning Lu won’t eat it.
Zhou Buqi showed her how to do it. He picked up a piece of perilla leaf, picked up a piece of beef that was roasted to medium- or eighty-cooked, dipped it in some tendon sauce and chili sauce, put on garlic cloves, green pepper rings and onion rings, and then put on a small section. Spicy cabbage.
Roll into a ball.
Eat it directly!
Um!
So many flavors mixed together, it’s really delicious!
Very top notch!
Sun Wanran was also full of praise, "It's more delicious than the Korean barbecue in Spring City. The beef is so soft and the bite is so charming."
Ning Lu was knowledgeable, with a look of enjoyment on her face, and commented like a gourmet, "This is not the same as the domestic barbecue, roasted whole lamb, etc. The domestic barbecue is barbecue, and the main flavor is the meat." What they eat is a mixture of grilled meat and various vegetables, which has many complex flavors and a lot of layers."
Zhou Buqi joked: "Maybe beef is too expensive and I can't afford it, so I can only eat it with vegetables."
Chen Dong spoke highly of it, saying that Korean food is much more delicious than Japanese food. Eating too much Japanese food can cause depression. I don’t know how Korean dog meat is, so I can try it if I have time.
This proposal aroused firm opposition from the two girls.
The table next to them was speaking English, and their table was speaking Chinese.
There's no need to avoid Jin Beomxiu, he doesn't understand it at all.
Zhou Buqi asked directly: "Where is Kim Jong Hyuk? How is it?"
This was the second thing he did when he came to Korea.
Eggs cannot be put in one basket.
Jin Beomxiu made a good bet, but can he really succeed 100%?
not necessarily!
Therefore, Chen Dong’s younger brother Jin Jonghyuk still needs to be taken seriously. He took Chen Dong’s funds to start a business in South Korea for one year and has already established the fifth largest e-commerce platform in South Korea.
The most important point is that his family has a background in the Hyundai Group.
He had made similar requests many times before, saying that a high-tech investment company owned by Hyundai was interested in financing his e-commerce company jtmall. However, Chen Dong pushed him back again and again.
It’s not that we don’t pay attention to it, but that we pay too much attention to it.
Mainly just waiting for Zhou Buqi.
The road has to be walked in two steps.
On one side is Kim Beom Soo and on the other is Kim Jong Hyuk.
Jin Beomxiu represents a new force, without a traditional chaebol background, relying entirely on the market, personal struggle and understanding of the Internet.
Kim Jong Hyuk has a strong background and is a combination of old and new forces. With this background, he can do things that Kim Beom Soo cannot do.
Hedging your bets.
It will always succeed!
Take 3-5 years to observe.
If Kim Beom Soo succeeds, all resources will be provided to Kim Beom Soo. If Kim Jong Hyuk succeeds, all resources will be provided to Kim Jong Hyuk to help him become South Korea's Internet giant.
If both parties succeed, it will be simple. Capital operations can be used to promote the merger of the two companies.
Chen Dongdao: "I told him, I can do it at any time, that kid..."
"What's wrong?"
"His family background is very good. He is a bit like a young man. He is not like Jin Beomxiu, he is very simple. What nightclub does the boy want to invite you to? It has been arranged."
"What's the arrangement?"
"Then I don't know."
Chen Dong laughed, it was inconvenient to say more, because he had already noticed that the two little secretaries next to Boss Zhou had their big eyes rolling around, with vigilant and scrutinizing expressions on their faces.
Zhou Buqi said sternly: "Don't make any arrangements that are irrelevant, and get the business matters done quickly. Well, it would be best to meet with Kim Jong Hyuk's parents and talk about their ideas for the future business blueprint. If we can get the modern system
With the full support, the probability of success may be higher than that of Kim Beom-soo.”
In an era where entertainment is king, the distance between the Internet and the entertainment industry will be greatly shortened.
