It’s precisely because it’s too costly.
Foundations don’t support video website projects.
Otherwise,
with the Foundation’s promise of free storage and traffic fees,
the money Tang Qing provided wouldn’tst very long.
Comet Video,
I guess it wouldn’t make much money in the next few years.
With faster inte speeds and widespread use ofputers and mobile devices, while users may have increased, the free users would increase proportionally, and they are not willing to top up their memberships.
For the next ten years,
for the financial situation of Comet Video,
Tang Qing wasn’t very optimistic.
Especially when Comet Video continued to lead the market as a major traffic consumer, it wouldn’t be surprising that, in two years, Comet Video would have to pay over one hundred million RMB per month to the three major operators for traffic fees.
Even if it doubled,
Tang Qing wouldn’t be surprised.
Before his rebirth,
Youku, iQiyi, and Tencent Video never made money; they were always losing money, asionally reaching break-even or slight profit in a quarter, but most of the time the financial statements showed losses.
However,
such projects,
their purpose isn’t to make money,
it is the users.
With a user base, there ismercial value.
...
Yu Xuan,
the manager of the Dream Foundation,
formerly a deputy manager of the Sky Eye Corporate Services Division.
She cherished this opportunity
and liked the job very much.
Inside the top-level conference room,
Yu Xuan was reporting to Tang Qing.
"As of now, the Sky Eye Dream Foundation has provided financing for forty-nine entrepreneurial teams, helping them solve problems in management, research and development, office, and business, among which, neen are website projects, the rest are product projects..."
"..."
"Currently, there are one hundred and three entrepreneurial projects pending review. Considering the office building and our funding issues, by the end of this year, we will face a shortage..."
In the end,
Yu Xuan suggests raising the review threshold.
Otherwise,
subsequent operations will encounter problems unless Tang Qing injected more capital, but as Tang Qing’s subordinate, she couldn’t possibly expect him to keep funding such projects that are almost for public welfare indefinitely.
If this meeting record was submitted,
Dou Jiao would call her.
The Chairman of her ownpany has never been stingy with benevolence; among the severalrge grouppanies, just from what she knows, there is an annual public welfare expenditure over five hundred million RMB. Asking for more, Dou Jiao would have her opinions.
No one’s money falls from the sky.
However,
there is another way.
ept outside donations.
Tang Qing thought for a moment.
"Manager Yu, let’s put this issue on hold. No matter what, I won’t let the Foundation be unable to operate, but having too much money isn’t necessarily a good thing. We can’t give the impression to the outside world that we are foolish and wealthy."
"As for social donations, you guys can start making a n. If we ept donations, we must ensure transparency—every penny must be ounted for to the donors."
"However, for ease of management, we can’t ept donations indiscriminately. We should start withrge enterprises and institutions; after all, they are more generous and there’s no need to trouble the general public."
Most importantly,
Tang Qing wanted to avoid hassle.
"Yes, Chairman." Yu Xuan also thought this made sense.
Tang Qing put down a report he was holding.
"Thepany directory here, I’ve looked over it, and it indeed has been strictly vetted; each has ample reason, but thesepanies won’t necessarily maintain their enthusiasm for the dream."
"As they develop, they might begin to chase capital and interests. This hasn’t been much of an issue in the early phase of entrepreneurship, but a team is like a ship; they can’t be expected to be content with basic wages forever."
"Moreover, dreams should not be cheap. Therefore, my suggestion is that the purpose of the Dream Foundation is to let dreams take root; as they grow, they can seek other investors."
Dreams.
Reality.
When passion fades, those who persevere are few after all. Tang Qing’s initial intent for establishing the Foundation wasn’t based on the belief that the people helped would remain unchanged, so there was no need to block their financial prospects.
A mother can’t keep her son forever.
Uh.
That’s what I mean.
Raised them.
The future.
They need to create it for themselves.
"Yes, Chairman."
Yu Xuan was a bit surprised; she hadn’t expected Tang Qing to be so ’enlightened’.
...
Qingyan Film and Television City.
A group of three people was strolling around inside.
The leader.
Was Maruyama Takeshi, who had just arrived in Qingyan City today. The other two were bodyguards, and he had already decided to visit Tang Qing. Thinking it best to pick an auspicious day, he took the opportunity of the May Day holidays toe to Qingyan City first.
At least to take a look around.
So he’d have something to talk about when meetingter.
And to enjoy some sightseeing on the side.
Observing the buildings and script rich with Huaxia cultural characteristics.
Maruyama Takeshi was quite fascinated.
Having lived in Japan for so many years and assimted into its culture, his love for Huaxia’s history and culture was even more profound, thanks to his mother’s education.
"Bzzz~~"
Maruyama Takeshi’s mobile phone in his pocket began to vibrate.
He took it out for a look.
An unfamiliar number.
"Moshimoshi."
He instinctively thought it was a call from Japan.
"Mr. Maruyama Takeshi, how have you beentely?"
Hearing this voice.
Maruyama Takeshi jolted; how could he forget that voice? On the deserted ind, when Tang Qing questioned him with his back turned, the tone was exactly the same as now.
"Mr. Tang, hello, how did you know I was here?" Maruyama Takeshi stood up straight and spoke respectfully.
The bodyguards naturally stepped back two paces.
It was evident from their reaction that the caller was an important person, and some calls were not meant for their ears.
"Heh heh, there’s nothing I don’t know about," Tang Qingughed.
That sentence.
Quite arrogant.
But Maruyama Takeshi didn’t think Tang Qing was bragging.
Because.
Just thinking of the sky-high ze over the Antic Ocean, the use of ballistic missiles against a group of hired assassins, all doubts were immediately suppressed.
This man.
Had powerful capabilities beyond his understanding.
"Yes, yes, I apologize foring unannounced, I actually wanted to appreciate this beautiful city first and then go in person to express my gratitude. I did not expect you to call first," Maruyama Takeshi hastily said.
"Alright, take your time looking around, and tomorrow morning,e directly to my uncle’s manor."
"Understood."
Tang Qing didn’t give the address of the manor.
Neither did Maruyama Takeshi ask.
Basic information on Tang Kai could be had internationally for just 100,000 US dors.
After hanging up.
Maruyama Takeshi continued his stroll, pondering the implication of Tang Qing’s words, going to Tang Kai’s manor rather than sitting down somewhere to talk clearly meant Tang Qing was nning to introduce his family.
But.
How could Tang Qing trust him so readily, not fearing he might be bad... Uh, alright, he could buy information on Tang Kai, so Tang Qing could certainly obtain his, and perhaps even more so.
"There’s nothing I don’t know about," Maruyama Takeshi murmured to himself.
Then he chuckled bitterly.
It seemed.
To Tang Qing, he truly was ’invisible’.
He knew of Tang Qing’s rtionship with the Ge Family, they were now important allies, and Maruyama Takeshi also had excellent ties with the Ge Family; Ge Feng’s soon-to-be wife had even been arranged by the Maruyama Family.
With that in mind.
He and Tang Qing did indeed share importantmon allies.
One of their own?
