Chapter 16 is in full swing

Regarding the next signing and supervision of "Ghost Record", Jin actually handed it over to Jose.

Jose is not only a weapon that Kim has planted in Facebook, but also his current personal lawyer.

The memory of the two lives made Jin Jingcheng deeply understand the difficulties and cruelty of the world, so his character was inclined to the secluded side, and he would not easily trust a person 100%, but for Jose, Jin Jingcheng's trust was enough to reach more than 90%.

Jose is an old-fashioned and calm person, very suitable for being a lawyer, he is very respectful and friendly to Jin Jingcheng, although he rarely speaks even if he lives in a dormitory on weekdays, but it just proves the sentence: the friendship of gentlemen is as light as water.

In Jin Jingcheng's view, Jose is a gentleman-like existence, and such a person is trustworthy.

After the signing of "Ghost Record", the execution began immediately, and it took Oren Paley several days and hundreds of actors to find the right male and female leads, namely Katie Fidstone, Mika Slot, and Mark Freedrich. Although it is a few years earlier than the previous life, the actor has not changed, and Jin Jingcheng remembers these actors.

This made Jin Jingcheng more confident that "Ghost Shadow" would be successful.

It only took a week for Oren Paley to shoot the entire film, which also coincides with Kim Kyung-sung's memory.

Everything is in full swing......

……

In full swing, half a year soon passed.

Half a year later, "Ghost Record" has already produced a sensation, the DVD release is very popular, the money is flowing back, and Jin Jingcheng has made a profit of nearly three million US dollars.

This is only temporary, because soon "Ghost Shadow" will be released in theaters, and then the box office will be truly amazing, which will make Jin Jingcheng really make a lot of money.

In addition, the two songs "If-I-Die-Young" and "Tonight-I-wanna-cry" are also very popular on the Internet, and the single records of both songs have been released.

In this regard, Jin Jingcheng was naturally very excited and excited, but he quietly put it in his heart, he didn't want to have too much pride because of this achievement, because this achievement was still too far away from his goal in this life.

After Facebook launched the $100,000 start-up capital at that time, it urgently needed a second infusion.

Jin Jingcheng decisively drew $1 million from the $3 million he earned from DVD sales in "Ghost Record" for the time being.

According to the memory of his previous life, Jin Jingcheng knew that seven months after the creation of Facebook, PayPal founder Peter-Thiel provided an angel investment of about half a million US dollars.

And now, Jin Jingcheng has directly injected $1 million, an extra $500,000.

Naturally, it is not that Jin has become more money, but that he has made an estimate based on Facebook's operation and relevant understanding of Facebook in his previous life, and according to his estimates, an additional injection of $500,000 at this time is likely to mean a reduction of $5 million to $10 million in the future.

It's the equivalent of a real estate investment, a house worth half a million ten years ago may be worth five million ten years later.

Facebook's development momentum is very huge, and Jin Jingcheng's memory of his previous life is basically consistent, except for some differences in details, in Jin Jingcheng's mind, most of these differences are related to Facebook's launch half a year earlier than in his previous life, but these differences have little impact on the overall rapid development trend of Facebook.

In addition, Mark has long dropped out of Harvard University, and Tony has already moved away from New York University after confirming that he can get a doctorate, and together with Mark, he has devoted himself to the work of Facebook.

According to Mark's latest industry report to Jin Jingcheng, it is expected that in another three months, the number of Facebook users will exceed 1 million.

It will be a memorable day, and Kim has already given instructions for Mark and Jose to take the lead in holding a company celebration, but Kim will not attend, on the one hand, he does not want to spend time and energy on such a small commemoration, and on the other hand, he does not want to show his head in front of the company's employees for the time being.

Jin Jingcheng's time and energy are limited, and it is impossible to do everything himself, so he attaches great importance to the principle of employing people, but after all, Facebook is his big foundation, and it is also a big gold mountain in his future.

At the same time, Jin Jingcheng will also use what he knows as much as possible to ensure that the Facebook he controls continues to move forward at a rapid pace.

When he injected $1 million this time, Jin Jingcheng specially summoned Mark, Tony and Jose to New York for a meeting, which should be regarded as a high-level meeting of the company.

At this meeting, Jin Jingcheng mainly had two purposes, one was to summarize and summarize the overall situation of Facebook in the past six months, and the other was to deploy some related matters in the future.

Among them, Jin Jingcheng made some suggestions on Facebook's future profit model based on his understanding of his past life and his business skills in this life, and it is only a point to stop, and when it is pointed, Mark, Jose, and Tony will have a direction, and they will naturally practice it in the future.

Jin Jingcheng focused on online advertising and value-added services.

Online advertising includes real-name open platforms, traditional advertising, and advertising banners provided by large suppliers such as Microsoft, while value-added services include users purchasing virtual products and paying for questionnaires.

This is just a relatively normal way to make money, and although two of them are not currently thriving, they are already in the imagination of Mark, Tony and Jose.

In addition, Jin Jingcheng also piggybacked: third-party APP application services and mobile devices.

Although these two things were only piggybacking on at this meeting, they are the main model and top priority of Facebook's profitability in the future.

The profit model of APP application services can refer to a website platform in China where Jin Jingcheng was located in his previous life, which is Taobao.

There is no charge for opening a store on Taobao, but if you want to become an honest merchant, want to enter Taobao Mall, want to be on top of Taobao's search, and want to get Taobao's advanced services, then you have to pay obediently. Big merchants on Taobao are very willing to pay this money, because Taobao is a platform that allows them to make more money.

It is this simple reason that Alibaba Group invested in Taobao in May 2003, and by 2014, it had more than 500 million registered members and more than 120 million daily active users.

Facebook's market value in the future is many times that of Taobao, and app application services are indispensable.

As for mobile devices, they have not yet flourished in the world, but Jin Jingcheng knows that in his previous life, in 2014, nearly 70% of Facebook's revenue came from mobile devices.

After talking about these profit models, Jin Jingcheng did not forget to advise: "In the early stage of profit, we don't have to be too anxious, let alone too ruthless, the main thing is to attract netizens, and constantly expand the number of our users. ”

He added, "As the website continues to grow, our entire company is growing in value." For Facebook, we make money when we should be making money, and when we shouldn't be making money, we don't pay too much attention to it, because we have to believe that our Facebook can definitely make a lot of money, even if the return will wait for a certain amount of time to be seen. ”

When the words fell, there was applause in the conference room, whether it was Mark who was arrogant in his bones, or Jose, who was a little old-fashioned and traditional, they couldn't help but applaud, and Tony was naturally even more so.

Although Jose was applauding, he was no longer surprised in his heart, in the past six months, he had the most frequent contact with Jin Jingcheng, and he had a deep admiration for Jin Jingcheng, and he also had a lot of loyalty.

Tony also seems to be accustomed to Jin Jingcheng's steadiness and resourcefulness, and his personality dictates it, even if he is used to it, every time he sees Jin Jingcheng do something amazing, he can't help but be amazed.

Mark now admires Jin Jingcheng from the bottom of his heart.
