Throughout mid-to-late March, Bluestar Technology became the focus of the Internet industry, and to be precise, Weibo/miroblog became the focus of the topic.

With the end of the sxsw Music Festival, the second bullet of Weibo/miroblog promotion was immediately launched. The "Blue Star Family Bucket" under Blue Star Technology Group has coordinated traffic with its current strong user base and influence.

But there was no large-scale small advertisement, which was what Luo Sheng hated the most. Although he knew it worked, he hoped to reduce the damage to the user experience as much as possible when promoting it.

Therefore, the main method is to send emails and background messages to some users of BlueSpae who have reached a certain scale, including some well-known up hosts of BlueStar Video/bluespae.

Invite these people to register for Weibo/miroblog accounts, and then ask these up owners to introduce and follow their social accounts to users, which indirectly drives ordinary users.

Users who received the official invitation email from Blue Star Technology have entered Weibo/miroblog without exception because this is very beneficial to them and there is no reason not to do it, so they are all very active.

In late March, Li Mingyuan and David Sachs were in the domestic technology industry and North America Silicon Valley respectively.

Li Mingyuan, who is in charge of Weibo, was invited to attend an industry symposium on March 27. Luo Sheng couldn't invite it, a big brand. Should he always invite the CEO of other subsidiaries?

But the fact is that the heads of other subsidiaries do not like to brag very much. Perhaps it is due to the influence of the founder. As the saying goes, the upward and downward effect is still difficult to invite.

In fact, Li Mingyuan doesn’t want to participate, but given that Weibo has just been launched, it is necessary to come out to show off its presence. Now it is time to stand alone.

At the symposium, the host looked at the young guest Li Mingyuan and said, "We found that the promotional slogan on Weibo was 'Everyone is a media person', which made me think of two Americans. In July 2003, two Americans called Sheinboman and Chris Willis clearly put forward the concept of 'we-media', which is literally translated as 'our media', and the two Americans made a very rigorous definition of the so-called 'we-media'."

At this moment, when the host paused, Li Mingyuan decisively took advantage of this gap and said in advance: "I want to say one thing. It is true that the Americans proposed the concept of 'we-media' in July 2003, but in fact, Mr. Luo had already proposed it one month earlier. Of course, I had not joined Blue Star Technology at that time, and I joined the following year."

As soon as these words were said, the industry insiders were stunned for a while. Is this a matter?

The host immediately realized that there was something information and immediately said, "Mr. Luo? But it didn't come out."

Li Mingyuan: "Of course it has not been reported, because this is an internal exchange between our company. Bluestar Technology is a very important corporate culture. In addition to food, it is a 40-minute exchange of ideas and brainstorming every day."

Host: "The corporate culture of Blue Star Technology is indeed very unique, but since internal communication has not been spread, it should be inconvenient to disclose it, right? It goes without saying that it involves commercial secrets."

Li Mingyuan: "Well, no, this is not actually a commercial secret. If I were to calculate, I wouldn't open this chat. It didn't come out because the company is really busy, the products are launched one after another, and there is no time to participate in interviews and exchanges. Xie Yinboman and Chris' definition of it is basically the same as that of President Luo, but the term given by President Luo is called 'self-media'."

Self-media?

The industry insiders present couldn't help but think about it in their minds when they heard this, we-media, our media, self-media.

This concept noun comes from seconds!

Just now, everyone was wondering whether they would plagiarize the concept proposed by others. Now that the concept of "self-media" has come out, it makes people believe it a little.

Li Mingyuan continued: "Mr. Luo not only first proposed the concept of 'self-media' in internal communication, but also defined it, but also predicted the future development trend of self-media."

As soon as these words were said, the industry insiders present suddenly raised their ears. It would be a huge loss for Luo Sheng to not come out to participate in the industry exchanges.

Li Mingyuan said:

"President Luo believes that the development of self-media will go through three stages in the next ten years. Before the birth of Weibo and miroblog is the first stage and the initialization stage. This stage is represented by bbs; entering the web2.0 era, this popular statement is also the concept proposed by Mr. Luo. Mr. Luo believes that the second stage is the prototype stage of self-media, and will be represented by personal websites, blogs, and Weibo; the third stage is the awakening stage of self-media awareness, mainly using portals, videos, e-commerce platforms, etc., which have entered the field of self-media, and the platform is diversified."

"At present, it has only been a few years since the birth of self-media. According to Mr. Luo, these three stages will exist at the same time, but compared with different subjects, Weibo will definitely become one of the major subjects."

In fact, Li Mingyuan still did not mention the real focus, that is, the trend of mobile Internet platforms is not mentioned at all.

Luo Sheng has said in the company's core executive group that Li Mingyuan is definitely one of the core members of Blue Star Technology. He has long realized the purpose of Luo Sheng's establishment of the Coast of Blue.

The boss is playing a big game of chess.

Through Li Mingyuan's oral statement, the concept of "self-media" has truly entered the public's vision. What's even more surprising is that Luo Sheng had already proposed this concept early and made phased predictions. It can be seen that Blue Star Technology is probably planning to launch Weibo in 2003.

As the exchange continued, industry insiders present increasingly hoped that Luo Sheng could come out and chat and share his Internet thinking with the outside world.

Now, people no longer doubt Luo Sheng’s concept of plagiarizing Americans because it is completely unnecessary. With his current "status" in the industry, not to mention that Blue Star Technology is being practiced.

However, everyone is also very slanted at Li Mingyuan. He became an executive of Blue Star Technology so young and was in charge of one side. It is equivalent to a prince of Blue Star Technology, an Internet business empire. This time, he decisively promoted his boss. Even if the boss didn't come, he wanted to show off. It also made people find that this young Blue Star Technology executive is indeed not simple.

It is not unreasonable to become a "prince of the country".

In the days to come, there is no doubt about a new round of imitation.

Li Mingyuan's exchanges at the symposium also caused a huge response in the industry, including portals and e-commerce platforms.

The concept of "self-media" has also become popular in the industry. In this environment where everyone is imitating Blue Star Technology and crazily touching Luo Sheng across the river, what he said is too influential, even if it is indirectly circulated through the mouths of others.

Because the facts are right in front of you, Blue Star Technology's current dazzling achievements are on the lookout.

As time goes by, on April 11, 2005, the domestic technology industry, North American Silicon Valley, and Wall Street have focused their attention on Bluestar Technology Group.

Ten days have passed in April, and the highly anticipated first-quarter financial report of Blue Star Technology Group is also due to come out!

All investors of Bluestar Technology, including the industry, are extremely concerned about this company because it was rumored online at the beginning of the year earlier that the company was preparing to seek profit.

As the saying goes, it is a mule or a horse. You will know it after taking it out and walking it.

As April just entered, major VCs couldn't wait to urge the company to release financial report information quickly. Even if it was not disclosed publicly, it would have to disclose it internally as soon as possible. Anyway, it has not been listed yet.

Investors were also very excited after entering April. Under this complex and intertwined mood, Bluestar Technology finally disclosed the company's first quarter financial report in 2005.

...

Pengcheng, Tengxun headquarters.

Xu Chenghua's secretary entered his office with a paper newspaper. "Mr. Xu, Bluestar Technology publicly disclosed its first-quarter financial statements this morning."

After saying that, his secretary handed him a financial newspaper.

Xu Chenghua quickly opened the newspaper, and the front page headline published the first quarter financial report publicly disclosed by Bluestar Technology. Bluestar Technology finally disclosed its financial report. Teng Xun also wanted to make its financial report public the day after tomorrow. Teng Xun, who holds its equity, is naturally extremely concerned about this statement of Bluestar Technology.

When Xu Chenghua opened the newspaper and saw the content on it, he was stunned and stared at the data in the newspaper in disbelief. After he came to his senses, he looked at the numbers and was inspiring and indescribable.

"What? This..."
