Let you invest, you support half of the entertainment industry?

Floor 2, Building 1, Yard No. 23, North Third Ring West Road, HD District, Beijing.

It is one of the three Internet giants in the future, and the ByteDance headquarters that will compete with Penguin and Ali.

At this time, although Zhang Yiming is already a vassal of the Internet, he has not yet reached the point of hegemony.

In the eyes of big Internet companies such as Penguin and Du Niang, they can only be regarded as rising stars who are slanting their swords.

Therefore, when the former received the appointment application from Jiaxing, he was also a little bit unresponsive.

"Does anyone know Xu Jia from Jiaxing?" Zhang Yiming asked.

He is no stranger to the name Jiaxing, after all, Internet companies are now moving into the entertainment industry.

ByteDance's flagship product, Toutiao also needs to attract entertainment news.

But for Xu Jia, he really didn't know much.

Who makes Bytedance at this time still cultivating internal skills, how can it have the energy to turn its attention to other fields.

Not to mention, in the eyes of Internet people, the entertainment industry is their back garden.

Anyone can pick a couple of them.

"It seems to be Yang Mi's rumored boyfriend. I heard that the relationship between the two is quite unusual."

This is downright gossip party.

"It's a little bit capable. It took three years to create a unicorn in the entertainment industry. It can be regarded as the only existence of an entertainment company."

This is a guy with a certain understanding of the entertainment industry.

"I haven't heard of it, anyway, it must not be as good as you."

This is a fucking sycophant, the main thing is that although I don't know, it doesn't prevent you from beeping.

Hearing the miscellaneous answers, Zhang Yiming frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "His assistant called and said he wanted to meet with me. What do you think?"

Now everyone is finally paying attention, after all, this means that there may be cooperation coming to the door.

In any case, Jiaxing is also considered a giant in the entertainment industry, and the content products they make are closely related to entertainment.

"I think it is possible to see, but it is not necessary for you to see in person."

"I don't think so. I advise you to check Jiaxing's resume and Xu Jia's experience. A founder who took three years to bring a start-up company to an entertainment giant will not be that simple."

"I agree with this. The entertainment industry is completely different from the Internet. We may have a piece of software that becomes a hit, and if it is favored by capital and the market, it will soar into the sky, but the entertainment industry is very difficult."

"What's the point of discussing and discussing here? I suggest that our two teams meet, so that we can have a deeper understanding."

Now it is no longer Xu Jia who wants to establish a relationship with ByteDance, but after the latter has temporarily stopped his attention on this entertainment giant.

Suddenly, I realized that I also need the other person very much.

"Okay, then follow what you said and meet the Jiaxing team." Zhang Yiming said.

He didn't think too much about it, it was just that the two sides got to know each other and see if there was any possibility of cooperation.

For him, as long as the core algorithm is in hand, everything else is secondary.

...

September eighteenth.

There are still two days until Douying goes online.

In a certain restaurant in the HD area, Xu Jia finally met Zhang Yiming.

Regardless of past life or present life, this man wearing gold-rimmed glasses is above Xu Jia.

But now the gap between the two has been shortened a lot.

And Xu Jia deliberately made an appointment with the other party, and it may be that he did not intend to absorb the other party's luck.

"I've heard Mr. Zhang's name for a long time, and it's a pleasure to meet you."

Xu Jia stepped forward and reached out to Zhang Yiming, with a kind smile on his face.

That's right, let's be happy with this big guy.

After all, we are the one who intends to take the express train.

"Hehe, I used to think that I was young and talented, but when I saw Mr. Xu, I realized that I was really someone else." Zhang Yiming said with a smile, and shook hands with Xu Jia.

Among many business leaders, the Internet generally looks young, but he is the one who looks young on the Internet.

You must know that in 2014, this person was selected as one of the "Forbes" China's 30 entrepreneurs under the age of 30 and "Fortune" China's 40 elites under the age of 40.

At that time, Xu Jia had just come back from rebirth, and established Jiaxing's Little Transparency.

"You are being modest. By the way, this is my secretary Miao Yuqing, our company's president Zeng Jia, and the new CEO Cai Yinong." Xu Jia introduced one by one.

Zhang Yiming also introduced the deputy he brought, and everyone enjoyed themselves for a while.

After all, the two parties are not in the same field in the strict sense, and they are not considered competitors. On the contrary, there are so many places that may cooperate in the future.

In this way, the atmosphere is naturally harmonious.

"I don't know why Mr. Xu asked me out this time?"

Zhang Yiming himself was not good at talking, or Xu Jia was not at the point where he needed to take care of the world, so he asked directly.

"I heard that your company plans to launch a new short video app recently. I'm quite interested in this one. Seriously, this method of information dissemination is also a subversion for the entertainment industry." Xu Jia said.

In fact, there are many short video companies nowadays, such as Xiaokaxiu, which have become popular in the market, but they still haven't found a suitable profit method, and it can only be regarded as an emerging field.

Only Xu Jia knows that short videos in the future will be a battleground for military strategists. It can be said that whoever controls short videos will control traffic.

As for Xu Jia's attention to short videos, it will not appear abrupt.

The rise of micro-movies and online dramas fully demonstrates that the development of the Internet has a certain impact on all walks of life.

"It's convenient to ask, there are so many short video apps on the market, why do you like our product that has not been launched yet?"

Zhang Yiming raised his eyebrows, even he himself was not that confident about the newly launched product.

Unexpectedly, an outsider would take the initiative to come to seek cooperation.

"There is a saying in the investment industry that investment looks at people rather than products. I am the same person. I look at the back of the product. Although I don't know your new products, I know your blockbuster product Toutiao. The algorithm is the most eye-catching I have ever seen."

Xu Jia looked at Zhang Yiming with a half-smile, "If this algorithm is used in short videos, it is likely to produce miraculous effects, and in addition to the accuracy of the algorithm brought by your huge user base, other companies will be able to It's also very difficult for the same algorithm to catch up."

It's hard to describe Zhang Yiming's mood at this time. There is both a sense of being caught and raped, and a sense of joy of meeting a confidant.

The feeling of being caught and raped is because he didn't expect Xu Jia to guess that he would use the algorithm for short videos, and he knew their algorithm so well.

The pleasure of meeting a confidant is that Xu Jia can see him enter the short video, which is the route of using the core algorithm +.

But this does not prevent him from asking Xu Jia: "You have mentioned so many of our advantages, so why should we cooperate with you?"
