"Cool Bean merger" can be said to be a "loud bang" on the internet this year, shaking China's internet. Put several "heavy investment" areas into deep panic: video, E-commerce, group buying, mobile Internet in four areas of investors will have to consider the current situation in the capital market.
these four areas because of the need for a large amount of investment, not so much is the entrepreneur entrepreneurship, rather than investors. Such a model, it is difficult to maintain a rational company growth path, more in the strong "speculative" mentality of "gambling entrepreneurship." The "Cool Bean merger" is an inevitable result of the "Investor entrepreneurship" field, which will continue to be staged in China's internet industry: in group buying, electronic commerce, mobile http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/5161.html, etc. > Internet field, New energy field, biotechnology field, etc. This is also a unique landscape of Chinese entrepreneurship, the essence of the reason is the lack of "innovation", from entrepreneurs to investors are highly embraced the "Replication entrepreneurship" philosophy results. "Copy Entrepreneurship" will inevitably lead to a high concentration of funds, thus greatly reducing the role of entrepreneurs, the direct result is "investor entrepreneurship." The "Cool bean model" will continue to be repeated in China.
"Cool Bean mode" all parties mentality and gain or loss in the end how?
Wang, the founder of potatoes, the most exquisite life style of the entrepreneur, the King of Life, is a big winner of this transaction, after the merger, the ability to cash in the stock is greatly enhanced, worth 100 million of dollars, enough to continue to pursue their own style of life. The King of career, he must accept their own hands to create the "potato" was eaten by the reality, and even quickly digested.
Potato Many investors, will be the potato stock exchange "cool beans" equity, increase the certainty of return, harvest is not small. Of course, this is also a forced choice, potatoes listed less than a year, in the public investors in the market vowed to voice still, the credibility of the loss is inevitable.
Potato Employees, the option issue is probably more complex, uncertainty greatly increased, career into a turbulent period, "no layoffs" commitment is definitely a new scam. Of course, anything will be lost, potato employees can put down the heavy pressure of life and death, enjoy a relaxed professional environment.
The general, the career must have entered a new stage, as a successful entrepreneur, this "cool Bean" merger is a sign of the success of commercial competition, however, the merged company, the performance of the pressure is certainly greater, the management team's error tolerance will be greatly reduced, and the video field is far from the stage of building barriers, Ancient always need to pay more attention to the body!
cool investors, sober understanding of the "long video" mode of the problem, the combination of potato UGC, to maintain the two legs walk, gain more security, should also be a harvest. However, a new risk is also being born, and the UGC video model itself is moving fast towards the mobile Internet and the open platform. Open platform players are likely to enter this area at any time. means "cool beans" two fronts, are not "defense depth" of the field. The long-term value of "cool beans" is still fraught with uncertainty.
staff, more career development opportunities may soon come, regardless of the video field of the final outcome of the war, in a long-term leading company to work, conducive to career development, two years, hold live, do not jump.
other players in the video industry, cool money to eliminate a competitor, should be very happy, especially the sales team, Youku and potatoes, two mountains, is soon a big mountain, the market's second place appears blank. However, independent video players will face a difficult financing environment, pplive, PPStream, storms, thunder, may be more difficult, prostitution is also a wise choice.
video will be a protracted war, who can laugh to the last, at least 5 years.
