Forcing Me to Be a Godly Tycoon, Right? Chapter 902 369: Romance by West Lake!

Soon, the ship slowly docked at the pier.

Zhang Jingdong and his companions disembarked and strolled back.

Perhaps because Ye Jinyan felt more admiration for Zhang Jingdong after his god-level performance on the ship earlier, Lin Qiuyue and Long Yue didn't follow them closely this ti. Instead, they deliberately lagged behind, maintaining a distance of about six or seven ters.

At this mont, the lights were just coming on, and the West Lake in the distance was calm and vast, with the distant mountains displaying a perfect silhouette.

Ye Jinyan was sowhat srized, possibly because of Zhang Jingdong's teasing words earlier on the ship, or perhaps because the scenery before her was still beautiful. For quite a while, she didn't look at Zhang Jingdong, nor did she say a word to him.

However, Zhang Jingdong wasn't worried at all, because he knew that sotis a bit of offense can actually remove many barriers between two people, thus significantly advancing their relationship.

After another ten minutes, when Zhang Jingdong saw Ye Jinyan still with a stern face, he suddenly found it amusing and casually said, "After completing this project with Ali, what industry do you plan to invest in next?"

Although Ye Jinyan still sowhat didn't want to pay attention to him, since he was talking business, she had to quickly ponder for a mont and replied, "Currently, there are two companies I am focusing on: Sohu Company and Shunfeng Express."

Shunfeng!

Zhang Jingdong was instantly delighted, "To what extent have you understood them? Which one do you plan to invest in?"

Ye Jinyan blinked her beautiful eyes, "At present, I am more inclined to invest in Sohu Company."

"Why?"

"Firstly, based on comprehensive information from various sources, our country's internet companies will see rapid developnt in the next few years. As one of Huaxia's earliest internet companies, Sohu, although it went through the internet bubble before, its comprehensive business has now started to recover fully, and the future prospects are very promising."

"Secondly, as one of Huaxia's most renowned online platforms, its products have a first-mover advantage compared to other online companies' products."

"As long as they can also create a product similar to Taobao or QQ, they can quickly reestablish themselves as one of the top internet companies in Huaxia. By then, the company's stock price will also soar."

"As for Shunfeng, as a courier company, although its current developnt trend is also not bad, firstly, it is not the absolute leader in the dostic express industry, and secondly, it has always pursued a high-end route and does not have a price advantage compared to others."

"Secondly, their boss Wang Wei is very conservative about financing, and the most they're willing to give up is only 10% to 15% of the shares."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jingdong pretended to think for a mont before saying, "Have you t Zhang Chaoyang?"

Ye Jinyan was initially taken aback that Zhang Jingdong could directly na Sohu's boss.

But she quickly rembered that Zhang Chaoyang was very high-profile, and his scandals with female celebrities often appeared on the front pages of major newspapers and websites, almost like an entertainnt star, so many people knew him.

She then nodded, "I have."

"What's your impression of him?"

Ye Jinyan briefly recalled and then said, "Firstly, he is a straight-A student, coming from Tsinghua, and later went to MIT for his PhD, a genuine returning elite."

"Then he is very high-profile in his work, well-versed in the dostic internet operation model, and knows very well how to use his influence to promote his company."

Zhang Jingdong remained expressionless, "Have you t Shunfeng's boss Wang Wei?"

Ye Jinyan nodded again, "I have."

"What's your impression of him?"

Ye Jinyan slightly furrowed her brows, "He is a very pragmatic person but not very skilled in marketing. When we first t, he chose the eting place at their company's warehouse. We chatted for a while, and then he went back to work."

At this ti, Zhang Jingdong said, "You seem to have a poor impression of him?"

Ye Jinyan shook her head, "It's not that the impression is bad; I just feel he is the typical Hong Kong businessman, focusing on steady and solid work."

"Of course, this is mostly a good trait, but with the current surging tide of the dostic private economy, his personality makes it difficult for his company to achieve great developnt in a short ti."

"anwhile, I think with the rapid developnt of dostic e-comrce in the future, the courier industry, as an ancillary industry, will also achieve great developnt."

"Shunfeng has its unique advantages, such as fast delivery and direct-operated outlets, but it does not have any advantage in pricing, which is the most important factor."

"Therefore, I think in the future it might capture a certain market share in the dostic express industry, but it is unlikely to beco a leading company. So even when it goes public, it will be hard to achieve good results."

Zhang Jingdong raised his head and glanced at the distant starry sky, then said, "My first question is, what do you think is the most fundantal thing an internet company needs to do in order to succeed in the future?"

Ye Jinyan hardly hesitated, "Of course, it's the flagship product, like Tencent's QQ and Ali's Taobao, because fundantally, the internet industry can only be monetized and achieve endless possibilities after securing enough users."

"Then let ask you, what do you think is Sohu's current flagship product?"

There was a hint of hesitation in Ye Jinyan's eyes, "Their Sohu website, and then they will launch a search engine product this year. I've seen it and I believe that as long as they manage it properly, it could pose a significant threat to Baidu."
