This is also up to now, the domestic hand travel media industry within the highest amount of a financing. Previously, 1006 Hand tour in 2011 was Jingwei China's million-dollar angel financing.

According to China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC) recently released the "China Internet Development Status Statistics Report", as of the first half of 2014, Chinese mobile phone users reached 527 million, and in the first mobile phone to surpass the traditional PC, become the first use of the network terminal. By this share of the movement of the East Wind, hand travel industry is also very rapid development.

But in the hands of the boom behind the industry, in fact, there are game developers and different channels of the brutal game. and the channels and manufacturers like the relationship between the enemy like friends, but also to the hands of the media to bring new opportunities. In the past, hand-travel media to help manufacturers solve the early exposure and service users. And now, in the case of extremely limited channel resources, manufacturers have to find new alternatives, and this is the current major hand travel media are exerting their direction.

However, in the 1006, hand-travel media channel is only one Direction in the future. Wang that the current hand-travel media is facing the general problem is that the reading volume is low, the user transformation is not very good, but also need to continue to explore the industry. And after this round of funds in place, Wang said 1006 will continue to vigorously explore the direction of the development of hand-travel media, in the acquisition of enough reading, so that the players satisfied at the same time, find some clever way to make the manufacturers profit, achieve the result of a double win.

Founder and President Wang is one of Sina's founding team members, the original Sina game founder.

In Wang's view, the Sequoia will invest 1006, in addition to the huge size of the market, another very important reason is that the team started early, compared with other hand-travel media experience more. In addition, 1006 is more focused on the mobile end of the user experience than in other hand media, and the business is more vertical, which makes it more attractive to investment institutions.

However, Wang that although 1006 has done a lot of different attempts, but the whole industry is still in a groping stage, product form, service model is not very satisfying. Compared with the rapid development of hand travel industry, the development of hand-travel media is still relatively lagging behind. For hand tour media in the hands of the industry should occupy the position, whether the manufacturer, channel or the media itself, are exploring, but also learning from each other.
