"Pony wants to merge Tencent Video's and Sohu Video's operations. What are your thoughts?"
Zhang Chaoyang asked out of the blue.
In fact, he and Ma Wenteng had grown quite close over the past six months, and their business dealings were frequent.
Penguin had already spun off QQ Input Method and Soso, merging them with Sogou Search and Sogou Input Method, and had even shelled out 450 million US Dollars for a strategic investment.
"Senlian Capital only holds a 20% stake in Tencent Video. Pony asked for my opinion privately, but I don't really have one."
Chen Yansen shrugged, looking indifferent.
His home turf was the short-video platform, which could funnel a steady stream of traffic to his other businesses.
As for long-video platforms, the investment was high, the returns were low, and the payback period was long. He had only invested in it on a whim.
