A good day starts with making money.

Pei Qian originally wanted to sleep beautifully today, then go to review, and eat something delicious to reward himself, which was perfectly arranged.

However, the 10 million knives that fell from the sky ruined all his good mood.

Pei Qian was silent for a long time and asked, "This ten million swords...... Is it okay to sponsor it back? ”

In line with the principle that whoever makes money spends it, since the money is earned by sponsoring the club, of course, it is better to sponsor it back.

He Desheng said: "Mr. Pei, are you saying that we will kill a horse gun, and then continue to sponsor the club and continue to earn?" ”

"I'm afraid not."

"Finger Inc. isn't that stupid to allow this to happen a second time. In the past, we sponsored clubs and asked them to put GOG on their uniforms, which was a loophole with imperfect rules. Now, Finger Head has required all clubs participating in official IOI events to have no sponsorship of other games on their uniforms. ”

"Of course, the clubs we sponsored before are still in a gray area, and the company is reluctant to pay them liquidated damages, and the results of these teams are not good, so ...... That's how it hangs for now. ”

"But no more sponsorship will work, this loophole has been plugged by the finger company."

Previously, Pei Qian sponsored a total of ten clubs, and now five have to compensate for the termination of the contract, while the other five continue to sponsor.

Obviously, the finger company picked five clubs that were stronger and easier to enter the quarterfinals to terminate their contracts, and as for the other five, they were really reluctant to pay for it.

After all, if all the contracts are terminated, it will take another 10 million dollars, and even Dayak Group will feel extremely painful.

Pei Qian was very melancholy.

On the bright side, at least the other five did not force the contract to be terminated, otherwise they would have to earn another 10 million dollars on their side, and the pressure would be even greater......

He Desheng said: "Mr. Pei, look at this money...... How to spend? ”

Pei Qian was silent.

yes, how to spend it?

Seeing that there is still a month to settle, and it is going to cost 10 million dollars in a surprise, isn't this a people's mentality?

Of course, there are ways to spend it, such as investing in the Mission & Choice project, or continuing to advertise and sponsor GOG, or engaging in some promotions.

But this money is a bit too much after all, and how to spend it quickly and with the least negative impact needs to be considered.

Thinking of this, Pei Qian said: "Don't worry, I'll think about it again." ”

Of course, He Desheng will not have any opinions: "Okay, Mr. Pei." ”

After hanging up the phone, Pei Qian felt a burst of melancholy, and the good mood of the day was gone.

I couldn't sleep anymore, so I got up and washed up, and went to the Internet café to have breakfast.

Then, Pei Qian sipped coffee while scrolling through the news on the Internet.

In the past two days, the news of e-sports and the game circle has basically been swiped by the world finals of ioi, after all, the GPL spring game has not officially started recently, and there is only one large-scale event, coupled with the promotion of Longyu Group, so the news is overwhelming.

However, in addition to the results of each team in the group stage, there is also a lot of news about the FV club, such as the excellent training conditions on the FV club's Weibo, as well as those active Weibo and so on.

And it occupies quite a lot of space, and the popularity is also very high.

Because today is the second match day, the domestic team did not play today, and yesterday's game was also very ugly, neither the media nor the audience wanted to mention it anymore.

The FV club, as the No. 1 seed in the country, has done some good work, which is very suitable for news coverage.

Therefore, even if Longyu Group doesn't like the FV Club, the game media still have a decent mouth, and give a large number of news pages to the FV Club for the sake of higher clicks.

Pei Qian didn't care too much, since he wanted to pull hatred all over the place, it would definitely create a certain amount of heat. However, it is unlikely that this heat will turn into revenue, and it will even have a negative impact after the FV team loses, so there is nothing to worry about.

Pei Qian looked at the news in other sections again, and suddenly, a piece of news caught his attention.

"Rumors of the cold-faced girl falling into bankruptcy, Meng Chang clarified: Rumors"!

Although the cold-faced girl has nothing to do with Dream Venture Capital, Pei Qian is still paying attention to the news of the cold-faced girl.

If the cold-faced girl becomes popular and her valuation is inflated, then Pei Qian can rest assured that she is running right and avoiding making more money;

If the cold-faced girl is cold and determines that this is a garbage project that burns money and can't burn the future, then Pei Qian can consider buying the bottom of the garbage assets and burning money.

Pei Qian hurriedly clicked on this news to check and found that the cause of the incident was that a certain media broke the news that the cold-faced girl had failed to finance and the capital chain was tight, and she had defaulted on the supplier's payment, and she was afraid that she would go out of business in the near future.

And this revelation detonated all the previous negative news about the cold-faced girl.

In fact, since the beginning of Cold Noodle Girl, there have been many doubts on the Internet, including questioning that its food is not delicious, expensive, over-marketed and hyped, and its fame is far greater than substance.

But the cold noodle girl was very popular before, the store was hot, the Internet was very popular, and the taste was passable, the price was subsidized and not particularly expensive, so this voice did not cause a lot of repercussions.

But now the marketing boom of the cold-faced girl on the Internet has gradually subsided, coupled with this revelation, the negative voices of the cold-faced girl have naturally been dug up.

This revelation didn't have much stone hammer, just a chat log, which was the content of the conversation between the so-called "industry insiders".

As we all know, chat history is not a real hammer, but it is better than no picture.

And this news also stimulated many people's desire to discuss, and some people wrote an article to analyze the business model of the cold-faced girl, blatantly declining.

The title of this article is "The so-called Internet thinking of the cold-faced girl is nothing more than pretense", and the paragraph at the end of the article can be called murderous.

"It must be admitted that Meng Chang has a strong cross-border thinking, a very high IQ, a top-level execution, and a super-first-class eloquence, and from any point of view, he seems to be a perfect entrepreneur."

However, common sense tells us that no one is much more stupid than anyone in any era, and no matter how clever a genius is, he can only deceive consumers for a while, but not for a lifetime. What's more, there are smarter geniuses above geniuses, and maybe in the eyes of other geniuses, such as Mr. Pei, Meng Chang's thinking is as simple as a blank sheet of paper. ”

Meng Chang has been emphasizing Internet thinking and conforming to the trend of the times, but he is like a child sitting in the passenger seat of a car, posing as a driver, thinking that he is in control of the direction of the car, and collecting money from passengers as a driver; But in fact, neither the car nor the road is under his control. ”

This article is a perfect patch.

The chat records that broke out have no authenticity, and the cold-faced girl can be said to be a smear by a competitor, but this article is written word for word, especially when it once again points out several fatal problems of the cold-faced girl.

And the most terrible thing is this sentence: Maybe in the eyes of other geniuses, such as Mr. Pei, Meng Chang's thinking is as simple as a blank piece of paper.

This is obviously a matter of Mr. Pei selling the shares of the cold-faced girl twice before it was expressed!

As we all know, the success rate of Pei's total investment is extremely high, and Mr. Pei has sold shares twice in a row, which must be because in Mr. Pei's view, there is a huge problem with the model of the cold-faced girl!

Therefore, doubts are loud.

And the cold-faced girl also refuted the rumors for the first time, saying that the company's capital chain is healthy, the financing is smooth, and there is no problem with the daily operation at all, please don't believe the rumors.

But the debate about the business model of the cold noodle girl has started again.

Many news websites that reprinted the news, as well as major forums, had netizens discussing it fiercely.

Some people think that the cold-faced girl was originally blown up, and it is not surprising that she went out of business;

Some people think that the situation of the cold-faced girl is very good, which is the media sensationalism and deceiving the number of clicks;

There are also people who think that Meng Chang likes marketing so much, and this is mostly a self-blackening and cooperating with the media to stir up the heat.

In short, there are different opinions, but there are indeed more and more doubts about the cold-faced girl.

Looking at these arguments on the Internet, Pei Qian was speechless and contradictory.

Obviously, many people know about the sale of the shares of the cold-faced girl by Dream Venture Capital, and think that this is a clear signal: the cold-faced girl is not favored by Mr. Pei, and sooner or later it will be cold.

However, Pei Qian himself knew very well why he wanted to sell his shares.

The contradiction is, can the cold-faced girl do it or not? Looking at the news that has broken out now, it seems that he has encountered some difficulties, but what if Pei Qian takes action now, what if he directly saves it?

It's tangled.

Pei Qian thought about it for a long time, and decided to respond to all changes with the same thing, saying that he couldn't be fooled again.

This time, we must wait until the cold-faced girl is completely dead and there is no possibility of salvation before making a move, and we must not turn losses into profits again!

……

At the same time, Fuhui Capital.

Li Shi and Xue Zhebin stared at each other with blank expressions.

Xue Zhebin said tentatively: "Mr. Li, what do you think of Mr. Pei...... It seems that there is some deviation? ”

"If Mr. Pei runs away...... What are we going to do? ”

Li Shi silently took a sip of tea and did not reply.

After Li Shi and Xue Zhebin invested 8 million in the cold-faced girl, Mr. Pei immediately sold all the shares of the cold-faced girl that he had bought for 2 million before, and once again completely dissociated himself from the cold-faced girl.

As a result, this move immediately had a chain reaction, and investors were even less optimistic about the model of the cold-faced girl!

According to Meng Chang's plan, after getting Mr. Li's investment, he will make the last effort, push up the valuation of the cold-faced girl and negotiate with more investors, but Mr. Pei's engagement is equivalent to a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle, which directly cut off Meng Chang's back road!

Meng Chang can't get investment, the cold-faced girl is still burning money, the eight million seems to be a lot, but in fact, it can't last long, and the cold-faced girl's capital chain is already very tight.

The revelation on the Internet that the cold-faced girl was going to go out of business is a bit exaggerated and an exaggeration, but it is indeed not groundless. Investors are generally not optimistic about this project, and it is inevitable that there will be rumors of it.

After adding fuel and vinegar to the unscrupulous media, it has become what it is now.

Obviously, the cold-faced girl has reached the juncture of life and death crisis, and most of the companies that have closed down have problems in the capital chain very suddenly, and they will die directly in a short period of time.

This shows that the investment of Li Shi and Xue Zhebin is very stupid......

Of course, other investors also have some shares of cold-faced girls more or less, and Li Shi is not the biggest wrongdoer.

Now everyone is in a rather contradictory state of mind.

wants to sell, but if everyone sells, the valuation of the cold-faced girl will collapse in an instant, and all the shares in everyone's hands will be worthless, and no one will want to run; But if someone sells and someone doesn't, the one who sells first can get out, and the one who sells later will be trapped.

Xue Zhebin followed Li Shi throughout the whole process, but seeing that Li Shi was conducting field investigations and repeated analysis, he studied very seriously, but in the end he seemed to have failed, which is quite a negative textbook.

Li Shi coughed dryly twice, relieving the embarrassment on the scene.

"Don't panic, although the matter of the cold-faced girl has ushered in a turning point, it is obviously not over yet."

"The reason is Mr. Pei's operation!"

"Mr. Pei first invested 2 million and then sold it immediately, others may interpret it as Mr. Pei saw the problem of the cold-faced girl and withdrew in time, but I don't think so."

"If Mr. Pei thinks that there is something wrong with the cold-faced girl, then he must have seen it at the beginning, otherwise he would not have sold all his shares. After selling, I invested 2 million, why? ”

"Mr. Pei is so idle, playing with Meng Chang?"

"Absolutely impossible!"

Obviously, the operation of 2 million has another meaning. In my opinion, it is possible that Mr. Pei deliberately sent a signal that the valuation of the cold-faced girl collapsed! ”

And Mr. Pei's move is definitely not just to teach Meng Chang a lesson. As I said before, Mr. Pei only talks about interests and not feelings in business, even if Mr. Pei hates Meng Chang and punishes him slightly, this can only be the second purpose, and the first purpose is definitely to make money through the cold-faced girl! ”

"At the earliest, Mr. Pei has already made a lot of money by selling the shares of the cold noodle girl, if it only ends here, the next 2 million is completely unnecessary."

"So I judge that Mr. Pei will definitely make some moves in the future!"

"I will choose a suitable time to buy some shares of the cold-faced girl at a low price."

"This time, I want to predict Mr. Pei's plan and walk in front of Mr. Pei!"

January 1, 2012, New Year's Day.

8 a.m. domestic time, 4 p.m. Los Angeles time on December 31, 2011.

Pei Qian got up as usual, he didn't have any special feelings about the New Year's Day, and he didn't have the habit of staying up late until midnight New Year's Eve.

This year is a special year of 2012, so there is a lot of discussion about this year on the Internet.

As early as 09, a global disaster movie called "2012" was released, and the Mayan fable has long been widely known.

However, Pei Qian knows very well that there is nothing particularly noteworthy in 2012, the so-called December 21 end of the world is just nonsense, in addition to the Olympics, the presidential election of the United States, etc., in fact, it has little to do with the daily life of most people.

Therefore, Pei Qian was in no mood to care about the discussion about the special year of 2012, and still focused on his own affairs.

Exam week still has to be reviewed, and the results of the group stage of the two domestic teams of the IOI World Finals have also been released.

One was eliminated, and the other insisted on the same point playoff, but after a fierce battle, they were still defeated and finally lost the qualification for the quarterfinals.

And just now, the second team's game has just ended, and the entire live broadcast room is full of all kinds of abuse, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the end of the domestic IOI!
