Huayu started from the fairy sword

Chapter 449 Dreams come true, Orange video is online!
And Liu Xiaoli was also shocked when she heard that Cao Jun spent 1.5 million to buy a big villa in Fortune Mansion for her daughter.

You know, this 1.5 million is not a small sum, it is quite a huge sum of money for anyone.

Moreover, according to Liu Xiaoli's estimation, judging from Cao Jun's income on the Forbes Celebrity List, his total net worth should not exceed 10 billion yuan.

But Cao Jun, who has a net worth of less than one billion, is willing to spend 1.5 million, most of his net worth, to buy a luxury house for his girlfriend Liu Qianqian, which shows how much he attaches importance to Liu Qianqian.

However, what Liu Xiaoli didn't know was that Cao Jun's net worth had already exceeded 10 billion, and his personal assets were also constantly appreciating over time.

Liu Xiaoli also didn't quite believe it, so she asked Liu Qianqian: "Qiqian, tell mom the truth, Cao Jun really spent 1.5 million yuan to buy you a big villa? Could it be a lie to you?"

Looking at her half-believing mother, Liu Qianqian was suddenly a little unhappy, because what she disliked the most was when others said bad things about her mother.

Secondly, Liu Qianqian couldn't accept other people's bad words about Cao Jun.

But it happened to be his own mother who questioned Cao Jun's character and also questioned Cao Jun's feelings for her.

Liu Qianqian curled her lips and said dissatisfiedly: "Mom, other people don't know about Brother Cao Jun's personality. Can you still not? How can you doubt Brother Cao Jun casually?"

Liu Xiaoli said earnestly: "Qiqian, it's not that mom doesn't believe in Cao Jun's character, but 1.5 million is not a small amount after all,"

In order to dispel her mother's doubts about Cao Jun, Liu Qianqian stopped talking and directly took out the real estate certificate for her mother to have a look at.

When Liu Xiaoli saw the words "Liu Qianqian" written on the real estate certificate, she was sure that Cao Jun had really spent 1.5 million yuan to buy a big villa in the Fortune Mansion for her daughter.

While Liu Xiaoli was overjoyed, she also felt a little guilty, so she took the initiative to apologize to her daughter Liu Qianqian: "Qiqian, it's my mother's fault, and my mother blamed him wrongly, please forgive my mother."

Seeing her mother's sincere words and shame on her face, Liu Qianqian couldn't bear it, and hurriedly said: "Mom, you don't need to apologize to me. I don't blame you. I just don't want others to speak ill of him."

Liu Xiaoli joked with a smile: "It's really a girl who doesn't want to stay, Sissy, you haven't married yet, and your arm is out."

Liu Qianqian said shyly and angrily: "Mom, you are here again, what are you talking about, my arm is turned out somewhere, Brother Cao Jun is not an outsider!"

Although Liu Xiaoli is a realistic person with great foresight, but "Lu Yao knows the horsepower and sees people's hearts over time", after so many years of contact, it can be seen that Cao Jun has a deep affection for her daughter Qianqian.

If there is a loving, righteous and rich man like Cao Jun who can take care of his daughter Qianqian, and as her mother, there is nothing to be picky about.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoli joked with a smile: "Yes, yes, Cao Jun is not an outsider, he is your sweetheart, so let me not tell you."

"Mom, I won't tell you anymore," Liu Qianqian blushed with embarrassment when her mother said this, so she stopped arguing and went back to the boudoir by herself.

And the other side.

Cao Jun is busy recruiting troops and working hard for his video website.

Cao Jun has also done some research and thinking about whether video websites can be profitable.

In fact, in China, not every video site doesn't make money. For example, Mango TV made by Mango Satellite TV is very successful.

In fact, the biggest cost of a video website is content, followed by bandwidth and employee compensation.

In Cao Jun’s view, the reason why video sites such as Tencent, iQiyi, and Youku have been losing money is because they burned money randomly. In the years when traffic stars rose, buying a random TV series cost hundreds of millions.

Especially after the two giants Ali and Tencent entered the video business one after another, in order to snatch content, copyright fees began to soar, to what extent?
Those so-called big-name stars can buy more than 10 million yuan for a single episode, and the price of a drama can be sold for more than [-] billion yuan.

This is just fucking.

Mango TV can be profitable mainly because it does not mess around and can control costs well.

You know, the business model of a frequency website can be roughly broken down into the following two parts, one is cost expenditure, and the other is profit income.

Take iQiyi as an example. In iQiyi’s prospectus, you can see that iQiyi’s cost expenditure is mainly in content cost and bandwidth cost, and content cost is the bulk.

iQiyi's profit income is mainly in membership services and online advertising services. Simply put, iQiyi uses content to attract users and advertisers to give itself blood transfusions, and finally forms a closed business loop.

In order to attract users, the platform needs to continuously purchase film and television IP, or else produce its own programs. The price of these two pieces is simply sky-high.

In the years when the competition was most intense, the three major platforms of Ayouteng were all bundled with entertainment, and the salaries of top actors were around 5000-7000 million, and some of them cost hundreds of millions before the rectification.

Although the cost can be reduced, if you still need to use first-line stars, the cost will not be reduced no matter how much. If you choose a newcomer, you will not be famous, and the audience will not buy it.

And the video website that Cao Jun wants to create is mainly to realize his dream and build a film and television empire of his own, not to compare with videos such as iQiyi, Youku, and Tencent.

Cao Jun intends to follow the example of Mango TV and strive to be a self-sufficient video website. It will do more high-quality movies, TV series, or variety shows, and will not follow suit and burn more money than other platforms.

However, Cao Jun did not dare to spend money recklessly. He planned to use the funds of Century Film and Television Company to operate this video website first, without using his own personal property.

When the time is right and the scale is slightly larger, Cao Jun will consider financing.

8 month 6 day.

Orange Video, an online video website founded by Cao Jun, was officially launched, and the "Orange" logo was launched.

At the beginning of its establishment, Orange Video adhered to the company philosophy of "exquisite and interesting", took "user experience" as its mission, and provided users with a clear, smooth, and user-friendly viewing experience through continuous technological investment and product innovation.

Because Chengzi Video was just created and there was not much content on the website, Cao Jun planned to put film resources such as "On the Journey" and "A Little Thing of First Love" on the website first.

As for other movies and TV series produced by Century Film and Television Company, including "The Legend of Zhen Huan in the Harem", they will be recorded in Orange Video one after another.

Of course, Orange Video would definitely not be able to gain a foothold if it only relied on these movies and TV series, let alone compete with other video sites.

On this point, Cao Jun still has self-knowledge.
