Chapter 514 Playing the piano to a cow
Zhang Qinying shook her head to indicate that she had never heard of it.
It's normal that she hasn't heard of it.
Yang Zheng remembers that Musical.LI was launched in the United States in 2014.
But it wasn't until April 2015 that we received an investment of 4 million US dollars.
Only then can we officially set sail.
By July, it had directly topped the list of Apple system application downloads in the United States.
Then in August, it received another investment of 8 million US dollars.
At that time, Musical.LI's valuation was nearly 1 million US dollars.
Then in June 2016, it raised another $6 million in financing, with a valuation of around $1.33 million.
In November 2017, it was directly acquired by Jintiao Group for nearly US$11 billion.
Not to mention the significance of Musical.LI itself.
If you simply choose to invest now, you can get more than 50 times the return in the past three years!
Isn't this much more effective than Zhang Qinying's stock trading?
“A music-related short video community software.”
After Yang Zheng said this, he explained the development prospects of the short video field to Zhang Qinying in detail, just like he explained it to Zhang Qinglan that day.
But it was different from Zhang Qinglan's eyes lighting up when he heard it that day.
Zhang Qinying's reaction was very flat, or even no reaction.
Yang Zheng even saw two words from her expression: That's it?
Play the piano to a cow!
Yang Zheng couldn't help but secretly complain.
But he knew in his heart that Zhang Qinying's reaction was normal.
Zhang Qinglan has been in Zhengrong Media for so long that he has some understanding of the live streaming and Internet markets.
So you can hear his "far-sightedness".
Plus there’s the halo effect of “beauty is in the eyes of the beholder”.
Naturally, I have a greater admiration for him.
But Zhang Qinying studied finance and worked in virtual currency.
What does she know about the Internet and short videos?
And it has no halo effect on Yang Zheng.
Where can you hear how powerful he is?
but.
Now it doesn't sound that great.
But when everything Yang Zheng said became a reality.
Zhang Qinying's shock at his "prophecy coming true" would undoubtedly be even stronger than Zhang Qinglan's.
So Yang Zheng didn't force her to understand and believe, but just said:
"Working with me on a short video platform is much more reliable than investing in stocks."
Zhang Qinying looked at him expressionlessly: "Isn't this still a gamble?"
For her, it was a change of development direction and entering a completely new track that she was completely unfamiliar with.
This is even more of a gamble than her borrowing money to invest in stocks.
Yang Zheng wanted to say something else, but after seeing her attitude, he closed his mouth.
It is useless to talk too much.
And Zhang Qinying is not some indispensable special talent.
He wanted to get Zhang Qinying to work together on a short video platform, and the reason was actually very simple.
First, Zhang Qinying has been in the United States for many years and is more familiar with it.
And he just happened to need someone he could trust over there.
The second is that only after Zhang Qinying comes into contact with and understands these things will she be more aware of the rarity of his actions.
To put it bluntly: He wanted to truly impress Zhang Qinying in the field in which he was good at.
It’s a pity that he didn’t play stocks in his previous life.
Otherwise, Zhang Qinying would have been stunned by him by now.
"You think it's a gamble, but it's not a gamble for me."
Yang Zheng replied first, then paused and said:
"3000 million US dollars is nearly 2 million Xia coins, which is not a small amount for me."
"I don't have the guts to lend it to you to invest in stocks."
"You're still unwilling to use the Zhang family's background, which means you don't even have a guarantee."
"If it were you, would you lend it to me?"
Zhang Qinying fell silent after hearing this.
If she were in his shoes, she probably wouldn't lend it to him either.
She even hesitated for a long time before the 432 million that Yang Zheng had promised her at the beginning to make up the total.
"How much can you borrow?"
After a long silence, Zhang Qinying spoke again.
Yang Zheng looked at her and shook his head slightly.
Zhang Qinying frowned and said in a cold tone: "You won't lend it? You promised to lend it to me before!"
Yang Zheng sighed: "Look at your attitude. You owe me money and you still want to borrow money. You are begging me."
He paused and said, "Put yourself in your shoes again. If I were to ask you for money with my nose in the air, would you be willing to lend it to me?"
Zhang Qinying lost her temper with just one sentence.
If Yang Zheng treated her like this, she would not even consider lending him money, and she would not even pay attention to him.
"That's why I just said that you need to learn to smile and be willing to bow your head, or you can just be a good little princess of the Zhang family."
Yang Zheng said in a serious tone.
He really didn't say this to coax Zhang Qinying into lowering her head.
Grandfathers always start with their grandchildren.
If you can't squat down, you can't jump high.
After his rebirth, he seemed to have a smooth journey thanks to many foresights.
But in fact, he also endured and held it in a lot.
Let’s not talk about people far away, let’s just talk about Zhang Qinying.
If it weren't for the Zhang family's background, would he have bothered to coax her here?
Zhang Qinying took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, and said calmly, "What do you want me to do?"
Of course Yang Zheng wanted to do something awkward.
But of course he didn't dare say it out loud.
Given Zhang Qinying's personality, if he reveals his bad intentions now, he will definitely not have any chances in the future.
Zhang Qinying has a cold and aloof personality.
Moreover, in her eyes, Yang Zheng is still Zhang Yilian's boyfriend and her brother-in-law.
And she felt a little guilty towards Zhang Yilian because of what happened in her childhood.
In this case, Yang Zheng was just joking with her.
She would definitely turn against him.
Otherwise she wouldn't be able to get over it.
It can’t be something bitter.
Yang Zheng no longer had anything he wanted Zhang Qinying to do.
So he simply continued to pretend to be generous:
"I never thought of asking you to do anything. After all, you are Yilian's sister. I have to give the Buddha some consideration."
"So even though I'm very unhappy with your attitude, I don't want to have too much contact with you."
"But when Sister Yi Xin told me you wanted to borrow money from me, I didn't hesitate and agreed to lend you 432 million, which was just the right amount to make it a round number."
"I still don't want you to do anything, and I'm still willing to lend you the 432 million."
Zhang Qinying nodded slightly when she heard that, glanced at him, and then quickly looked away.
She was embarrassed.
But it wasn't because of anything else, it was because she felt embarrassed about what she was going to say next.
"It's too little. I don't have much room to maneuver."
When Zhang Qinying finished speaking, she felt that she was too shameless.
But that's how people are.
If Yang Zheng's attitude had always been bad, she might have given up directly.
But Yang Zheng invited her to dinner and taught her the principles of being a human being and doing things in a very earnest manner.
This made her bolder and more willing to ask for more.
This is actually a case of "good people being bullied".
The easier a person is to talk to, the more likely he will be forced to do things his way.
Why?
Because he is kind.
Fortunately, Yang Zheng is not really kind.
He stared at Zhang Qinying speechlessly:
"Too little? Do you want to listen to what you're saying?"
"432 million, and that's US dollars! Converted into summer currency, that's nearly 2700 million!"
"Do you know what 2700 million means?"
"Last year, the average domestic income was 20167. To reach that average income, 2700 million people would have to save for over 1000 years without eating or drinking!"
He trailed off.
Zhang Qinying's face turned visibly red.
Yang Zheng was stunned when he saw this.
This was the first time he saw Zhang Qinying have any expression other than her expressionless and cold face.
So it’s not really facial paralysis after all.
It can still be adjusted... there is still hope.
