Sprinkle coins every day

Chapter 488 Two peaches kill three warriors, Zhang Shuo uses tricks to bury another hole for Ari!
Monday, April 4th, Guyu.

At the meeting, Senior Vice President Lu Qi focused on reporting the latest progress in some cooperation negotiations with Qiandu recently, "The group has signed a formal cooperation agreement with Qiandu regarding the interoperability of accounts."

"The key is in the copyright cooperation."

"For copyright cooperation, Qiandu did not directly refuse like Tengda did, but put forward an additional condition, hoping that Qinghe Group will participate in Qiyi Video's B round of financing."

Qiandu has always been the controlling shareholder of Qiyi Video and the biggest financial backer behind Qiyi Video.

At this time, he offered to let Mengya participate in the financing of Qiyi Video, obviously also wanting to carry out a deep bond with Mengya through cooperation in equity investment.

In order to lay the foundation of trust between the two parties in the field of copyright cooperation.

"How big is Qiyi Video's current round of financing?" Zhang Shuo asked.

"$3.5 million."

Lu Qi explained: "The meaning of Qiandu is that we hope that we will lead the investment and subscribe for 2 million US dollars. We will get a 5.714% stake in Qiyi Video's parent company and become one of the main shareholders."

"can."

Zhang Shuo thought for a while, but nodded in agreement.

In my impression, the original Space-Time Qiyi Video should have been in the B round of financing in November 14. It seems that Xiaomi led the investment, and the financing scale was US$11 million.

The scale of financing in this life has increased to 3.5 million, which has also been delayed for half a year.

But it was Qinghe Group's turn to lead the investment.

Although Qiyi Video has always been a super money-burning machine, the original time and space burned more than 400 billion, and there is no reason for it, and there is still no hope of profit.

But investing in Qiyi Video at this time, from the perspective of investment, is actually not a loss.

Because Qiyi Video is expected to make a round of strategic investment of up to US$17 billion in 1.5, and then it will go public in Beautiful Country in March 18.

At the peak of the market value, it even exceeded US$30 billion.

As for the B-round financing that Qinghe Group participated in, the valuation of Qiyi Video is only US$35 billion. If it is properly reduced after listing, it can be regarded as a good financial investment.

The premise is to act as soon as possible.

Because after 21 years, the stock price of Qiyi Video has been falling all the way, and the market value is less than 18 billion US dollars.

It can be seen from this that the investors behind Qiyi Video actually don’t care at all whether Qiyi Video can achieve profitability, or they have already cashed out in the stock market and left the market.

Only a group of stockholders who have been cut leeks are left.

Fortunately, Qiyi's video is listed in the beautiful country, and the cheats are also crooked nuts.

Bashi! !

"correct."

When it comes to investing in Qiyi Video, Zhang Shuo thought of another thing, "Isn't Tenda recently promoting the spin-off of Tenda Video? Is it possible to make a round of strategic investment in Tenda Video before the listing of Tenda Video. Like a video, we can indirectly realize copyright cooperation through strategic investment.”

The copyright that Tenda most wants to monopolize is in the field of music.

Now that Tenda Music has been listed, Qinghe Group can completely settle for the next best thing. In the field of film and television drama copyright, it has reached a strategic cooperation with Tenda Video, so as to make up for the loopholes in the secondary creation of short videos in the future.

You know, the original Space-Time Tengda pursued Douyin fiercely, and the infringement claims soared from one to two million to tens of millions in a short time, and they all won the lawsuits.

Therefore, it is very necessary for Qinghe Group to reach a copyright cooperation with Tengda.

"Then, after the investment in Qiyi's video is settled, I'll arrange someone to get in touch with Tengda." Lu Qi also understood, and then asked: "Chairman, U Cool, do you need to take the initiative to contact?"

Right now, the relationship between Germination and Ari can be described as frozen.

"forget it."

Zhang Shuo shook his head, he didn't want to keep putting his hot face on it, the relationship with Ari should be aired.

If Qinghe Group really manages Tenda Video, and joins forces with Qiyi Video, it will already be the major player in the secondary creation copyright of film and television dramas, and it may not be able to suppress U Cool.

U Cool itself is the weakest of the three major video sites, so it may not be necessary to cooperate.

After discussing the cooperation with Qiandu, Senior Vice President Gu Mingzhang also reported a piece of good news, "Chairman, the commercial space launch center project jointly built by Nebula Group and Huaxia Aerospace will hold a groundbreaking ceremony this Friday. At that time, I don't know, are you free to attend?"

"I won't go, let Mr. Lu go."

The location of the commercial space launch center is located in Qiongzhou Province, and the Germination Group does not have much business in Qiongzhou, so Zhang Shuo does not want to go alone, not because he is tired, but because he is afraid of being entangled by Qiongzhou.

The same goes for Lu Kai.

.........

After the meeting, Zhang Shuo returned to the office, and the system prompt sounded again.

"The Vision Fund has been established, check the panel for details!"

"So fast?"

Zhang Shuo was quite surprised. It was only [-] days since the Vision Fund was established in the system.

Sure enough, money ability is awesome!

Clicking on the system panel, Zhang Shuo noticed that the headquarters of the Vision Fund is located on Wolf Street, and the hired president is named Martin, who is a senior investment manager on Wolf Street.

The employees of the Vision Fund are basically poached from the investment banks on Wolf Street.

Although the newly established Vision Fund is still unknown on Wolf Street where funds and investment banks are everywhere, the registered capital of US$6 billion is still very attractive to Wolf Street employees.

In the venture capital circle, qualifications are very important, but the most important thing is financial strength.

Vision Fund undoubtedly has this strength.

After checking the basic information of the Vision Fund, Zhang Shuo gave Martin the first order without hesitation—"Contact the Dream Fund and participate in the acquisition of Dongzhi's flash memory chip business."

Compared with allowing the Vision Fund to make money in the stock market, the acquisition of Dongzhi's flash memory chip business is the top priority.

In order to make this order not appear abrupt, as early as half a month ago, Zhang Shuo had instructed Howard, the president of the Dream Fund, to spread the news on Wolf Street.

Said that he intends to find a partner to jointly participate in the acquisition of Dongzhi's flash memory chip business.

With this foreshadowing, the Vision Fund, as a novice in the global venture capital circle, naturally has no reason to refuse the invitation from a large private equity fund such as the Dream Fund.

He even said that he would think this is a good opportunity.

.........

Back home at night, his wife, Gu Xiaoxi, rarely found Zhang Shuo to talk to.

"Since you transferred the shares of Germination to me and received more than 20 billion dividends, people from my hometown have been contacting me. Some invited me to visit my hometown, and some wanted to come to Binhai City to visit me."

Obviously, Gu Xiaoxi had never encountered this kind of situation before.

So it seems very cramped.

For Gu Xiaoxi, who is half socially afraid, how to deal with the relationship with the people in his hometown is probably much more difficult than doing math problems.

"What do you think?" Zhang Shuo asked.

"I want to help everyone and do what I can, but I'm afraid I can't do it well."

Gu Xiaoxi is still not confident.

"If you want to do it, then go ahead and do it. In this area, you can ask Dad for advice. He is very handy in handling our family affairs." Zhang Shuo smiled and gave Gu Xiaoxi advice.

He originally wanted to suggest that Gu Xiaoxi set up a fund by himself and conduct professional management.On second thought, with Gu Xiaoxi's personality, it's better not to worry about it.

Gu Xiaoxi only needs to simply throw coins, and let the people who should worry about the rest.

.........

Thursday, November 4.

Qinghe Group completed the B-round financing of Qiyi Video, and after signing the investment contract, the two parties held a short press conference, announcing that the two parties will carry out strategic cooperation in the field of film and television drama copyright.

The main content of the cooperation is——

In the next five years, all the film and television drama copyrights purchased by Qiyi Video will be released to Moyin Technology, a subsidiary of Qinghe Group, for the secondary creation copyright of film and television dramas at an agreed price.

If the cooperation is satisfactory, after the five-year period expires, Magic Sound Technology also has the priority to renew the contract.

In the past 15 years, with the love and killing of the three major video websites and the rise of the VIP payment model, the online copyright of film and television dramas has ushered in a wave of rising cycles.

The online copyright prices of popular film and television dramas are rising day by day.

but!

This is limited to popular film and television dramas. For old movies and TV dramas, including the secondary creation of film and television dramas, there are still many loopholes in the relevant copyright protection.

All kinds of piracy and free use are still common.

Under such circumstances, Moyin Technology took the initiative to reach a strategic cooperation with Qiyi Video, and actively paid for the copyright of the secondary creation of film and television dramas, which can be described as a clear stream in the industry.

"Qinghe Group has money to burn. I have never heard of it. Second creations also have to pay copyright fees."

"Isn't that bad?"

"Qinghe Group pays for the copyright, and then provides it to secondary creators for free, so that secondary creators can avoid legal risks. Is it heartwarming?"

"I didn't say it was bad, I just thought it was unnecessary."

Let alone in 15 years, even in 22 years, there are different opinions on the Internet about whether the second creation of film and television drama works involves infringement.

The general view is that copyright protection is possible, but it cannot be protected indefinitely, and an appropriate period needs to be established.Otherwise, the real beneficiaries are not copyright creators, but platforms that purchase copyrights.

Ultimately, it is the consumers who suffer.

Regardless of what netizens say, Qinghe Group will always open its doors to major platforms in terms of copyright cooperation, and immediately entered into a match with the two major video websites Tenda and Pessimism.

Hope to reach a similar strategic cooperation with Qiyi Video.

.........

Friday, April 4.

Faced with the olive branch of cooperation offered by Qinghe Group, Er Ye rarely hesitated.

"Boss, I think it's a good thing."

Seeing this, Lu Jian immediately expressed his opinion, "Qinghe Group is willing to participate in the strategic investment of Tenda Video, which will not only help ease our relationship with Sprout, but also help Tenda Video spin off and go public."

It can also be regarded as an endorsement for Tenda Video in disguise.

"As for copyright cooperation, since it is limited to secondary creations and also limited to the field of film and television dramas, it will not have any substantial impact on our entertainment strategy."

"You are right."

The second master didn't know, "But the problem is, Qinghe Group has made it clear that it is at a disadvantage, so why did it rush to cooperate with us? Don't forget, before we took the initiative to ask for investment from Germination, Germination refused."

"Uh…"

Lu Jian was also obviously taken aback, and subconsciously said: "Perhaps at that time, Qinghe Group hadn't launched short video business, so there was no need to cooperate with Tenda Video in the field of copyright."

"You hit the point."

The second master's eyes flickered, "Qinghe Group is making such a big splash, and it is also investing in Qiyi Video and Tenda Video. It has only one fundamental purpose, which is to serve its short video business. What does this mean?"

"Explain, Qinghe Group attaches great importance to the short video business?" Lu Jian is not stupid.

"It is very, very important."

Er Ye looked serious, "Perhaps, we were wrong to underestimate the short video business before."

"This, isn't it?"

Lu Jian didn't take it seriously, "The decisions of Qinghe Group may not all be correct, right?"

"My point of view is that Qinghe Group is now a big business, rich and powerful, and has very strong financial strength. In the fields of games, social networking, news, browsers, etc., it has achieved the ultimate. In order to develop new businesses, short video It's totally understandable that the business should devote more resources." Lu Jianyue said, but he felt more and more unhappy.

Why?

Because the status quo of Qinghe Group is simply the future that Tengda planned for itself before, dominating the world in the two fields of games and social networking, and then deriving to other application scenarios.

For the possible next outlet and track, there are also sufficient resources for trial and error.

"Perhaps you are right."

The expression on the second master's face was also unpredictable, what Lu Jian could think of, how could he not have the same feeling?

It's really hard to stretch! ! !

"Then, do you want to cooperate with Qinghe Group, or refuse?" Lu Jian asked cautiously.

"what is your opinion?"

The second master rarely lost his mind.

"I think we can still cooperate."

Lu Jian still insists on his previous point of view, "Compared to the unclear short video track, with the endorsement of Qinghe Group, promoting the spin-off and listing of Tenda Video is the top priority of the group. Before the spin-off and listing, Anything else, you can go back a little bit."

No wonder Lu Jianhui thought so.

As the new CEO of Tenda, Lu Jian has already encountered unprecedented pressure on the board of directors due to the withdrawal of Nanfei Newspaper.With the new shareholders and directors in place, Lu Jian must make a difference.

Otherwise, it is inevitable to be dismissed.

Faced with the current mess of Tengda, what Lu Jian can think of to achieve results in a short period of time is to continue to bet on the big entertainment track. Split the listing.

Making money for shareholders is his most important duty.

In order to achieve this goal, even if he had to cooperate with Germination, which Lu Jian didn't like before, he would not hesitate to do so.

This is called professionalism!
As for the short video track, it may have great development prospects in the future, or it may be the next outlet, but with the resources and funds currently available to Tenda, it is really unable to compete head-on with Qinghe Group in this track.

It's better to say let it go first.

Big deal, after the prospect of the short video industry is clear, Tengda will make another move to come from behind.

Can't you just copy it?

After all, Tenda no longer pays attention to the short video business. In fact, it also has Tenda Video as its support, and there are short video platforms such as Weishi. It is not too difficult to start the short video business.

"Okay, you are responsible for this."

The second master took a deep look at Lu Jian, feeling exhausted in his heart.
