This director only makes bad movies.

Chapter 495 Entrepreneurship is courting death
"Short video?" Lin Ziyi quickly captured the key information in Xu Nan's words.

Xu Nan said slowly: "There are also short video platforms in China, namely Kuaoshou and Douyin. They are used by many people. You can take a look at their business models."

"I think in the future, the potential of short videos is greater than that of streaming media. After a busy day, consumers may not have the energy to watch a TV series with a dozen or even dozens of episodes, but they definitely have time to watch a few dozen seconds. A short video of the clock."

"Even short videos can be watched during work breaks and meals, making full use of fragmented time. In this regard, long videos are completely inferior to short videos."

"I even dare to say that the future must be dominated by short videos."

In fact, Xu Nan once had the idea of ​​investing in short videos. After all, he made so much money making movies, it would be a waste to put them in the bank for interest.

And he knows that short videos have a high probability of success.

But the problem is that when he wanted to invest, there were already more than a dozen short video platforms on the market, and the ones that had become popular did not accept investment from outsiders at all, and the ones that were not successful, Xu Nan did not dare to invest.

So he can only suppress the small idea of ​​capital appreciation.

If Lin Ziyi is willing to make short videos, Xu Nan can invest in it, because this girl is indeed capable, and there is a probability that she can make it.

If it works, he'll make a lot of money
"Short video." Lin Ziyi secretly wrote this down.

She believed in Xu Nan's talent. Since she said that the short video has potential, it should be right, and she can find an opportunity to investigate it.

Lin Ziyi tried to persuade Xu Nandao: "I know that the competition for long videos is fierce, but there is still a possibility of success."

"First of all, I have contacts in the United States, and I can get the authorization of film and television dramas in the United States at a low price."

"Even film and television dramas in other countries, I have a way to get authorization."

"It's pretty reliable." Xu Nan commented.

There are still many people in China who like to watch foreign film and television dramas, and some even have a sense of superiority because of this, thinking that watching foreign film and television dramas is more noble than watching domestic film and television dramas.

Not to mention their mentality is right, but at least this is a market.

If we can get the authorization of foreign film and television dramas and put them on the video platform, it should be able to attract many people to become members.

And as long as someone is willing to become a member, then the video site is considered to have a firm foothold, barely able to gain a foothold.

Lin Ziyi continued: "Secondly, I can also obtain authorization for some domestic film and television dramas at a low price, such as Brothers Film and Television, such as the resources of several TV stations."

"The second generation's entrepreneurship is cool." Xu Nan couldn't help complaining: "The foundation of the family is really good."

"It's not like me. When I made my first movie, I was carrying a negative debt buff."

Lin Ziyi didn't answer, and said: "The third is you. You own a film and television company and are also a top domestic director. In the future, you are destined to be able to continuously produce new content. This will be an important part of the website's competitiveness. "

Xu Nan was a little tempted.

The main reason is that Lin Ziyi has laid a solid foundation. Whether it is the authorization of foreign film and television dramas or the authorization of domestic film and television dramas, a video website can gain a firm foothold in this highly competitive environment.

Moreover, the streaming media industry is naturally an upper-class industry in the film and television industry, which is extremely suitable for extension.

If Xu Nan just wanted to satisfy a director, a film and television company owner, then he could really do nothing.

But if he still wants to pursue something, then the streaming media industry is indeed very suitable for him.

Lin Ziyi's foundation is still so good, it's a pity to miss it.

Xu Nan hesitated.

Lin Ziyi urged: "How about it, dare you, give me a good word."

"I've already laid the foundation. You just need to bring some money to invest. To be honest, I don't care much about your money. The main reason is that you are a bit crooked. Otherwise, who would look for you."

Xu Nan said slowly, "My money is all earned through hard work. It's all hard-earned money."

Lin Ziyi rolled her eyes: "To be precise, your money was all obtained through fraud and abduction, and you still have to pay blood and sweat. Are you embarrassed?"

Xu Nan said again: "Although you have laid a good foundation, whether the video website can succeed depends on whether it can continue to produce better and more exciting TV dramas in the future. To put it bluntly, it is the ability to innovate. Only in this way can the audience Will be willing to continue to recharge members, so that the video platform can continue in the fierce competition."

Lin Ziyi: "Since we have a good foundation, why can't we compete with others? I don't think we are inferior to others. Besides, you are a great director. Don't you even have the confidence to make good movies?"

Xu Nan: "However, the structure of the streaming media industry has been determined, and several giants have already occupied a sufficient market share. It is difficult for latecomers to develop under their pressure."

Lin Ziyi: "So what, and the stronger the opponent is, the more interesting it is, and this kind of victory is happy enough."

Xu Nan: "But."

Lin Ziyi was in a hurry, and interrupted Xu Nan's words: "Where is there so much nonsense, hurry up, do you want to do it or not?"

Xu Nan gave Lin Ziyi a white look, and sighed: "What else can I do after you have said so, just do it."

Lin Ziyi smiled.

"Isn't it over if you say that earlier? There is so much nonsense."

Xu Nandao: "The main thing is to see your determination, don't just be hot for 3 minutes, then I will be miserable."

"You are the second generation of the rich, and there are people in your family who support you. I am alone. If I fail, I will never recover."

Lin Ziyi smiled angrily: "Can you stop being so shameless, you have made a lot of money by making movies to cheat the audience, and your net worth is higher than mine, so you still have the nerve to say this."

"Okay, then let's discuss the investment and proportion." Xu Nan's expression became a little more serious.

When it comes to business, both sides are very serious.

This is not a trivial matter such as who pays for the meal. It may involve a big business of hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars, so we must be cautious.

The brothers still settle accounts clearly, let alone the two are not brothers.

Lin Ziyi's condition was that she would contribute [-] million yuan, Xu Nan would contribute [-] million yuan, and the two would jointly form the company.

But in terms of shares, it was reversed, Lin Ziyi accounted for 70.00%, Xu Nan only had 30.00%.

Xu Nan was anxious at the time: "Why do I pay 30.00 million and only get [-]%?"

Lin Ziyi did not show any weakness: "Just because I initiated this company, I can get foreign film and television drama licenses at a low price, and domestic resources at a low price. Can you?"

Xu Nan: "I pay the most money, and I can also make movies."

Lin Ziyi cursed: "More money is useless. If it wasn't because I don't want people to influence the right to speak, I could definitely attract people to invest, and billions of dollars are no problem. If it weren't for the fact that you are an acquaintance, I would at most give you [-]% tenths of the shares."

The two quarreled.

But how could this kind of thing come to a result by quarreling.

And what Lin Ziyi said is actually reasonable. It is not difficult to build a video platform, but the content is actually difficult.

If there are not enough film and television dramas on the video platform, why should people download and become members?

Therefore, Lin Ziyi's contribution is really great, and it is only natural that she wants to occupy more shares.

But Xu Nan could not accept this distribution plan.

Pay the most money, take the biggest risk, but not the biggest benefit.

Why.

Seeing that Lin Ziyi was not giving in, Xu Nan simply said: "Since you think I don't have much help for the video platform, how about we make a bet."

"What's the bet?" Lin Ziyi asked back.

Xu Nandao: "For a video platform, the most important thing is of course new content. Only when it has sufficient creative capabilities and can continuously create new content can it retain viewers and make them become members willingly."

"And this ability is also the key to whether the video platform can survive the fierce competition."

"Would you admit it."

Lin Ziyi nodded.

Since she wants to be a video platform, of course she understands the importance of new content to a video platform.

If there is not enough new content to attract viewers, the video platform will be dead. If you want to stand out from the fierce competition and dominate this market, you must have video resources that attract viewers.

It could be a movie, a TV series, or a variety show.

But no matter what it is, it must be there, and it must be enough to attract the audience and make them willing to become members.

Many video platforms died because their innovation ability could not keep up.

Xu Nandao: "Then let's bet on this, bet that I can make enough film and television dramas to attract the audience, so that they will be willing to become members."

Lin Ziyi asked: ""Staring Man"?"

The movie "Glaring Man" is currently still in theaters due to the application for an extension key, but after the release date passes, this movie will definitely be broadcast on the video platform.

A phenomenon-level movie of this level, without even thinking about it, will definitely bring a large number of new members to the video platform.

For the right to broadcast the movie online, the managers of several video platforms contacted Liu Yang frequently, offering more and more lucrative conditions.

If this movie is placed on the new video platform jointly established by the two, it will definitely bring a large number of new members to this video platform.

And this is why Lin Ziyi insisted on pulling Xu Nan to start a business together. If Xu Nan really had no effect on the development of the video platform, she would not come here.

Feelings are too vain in the face of interests, and can only play a supporting role.

Xu Nandao: "It's not just "Gazer", I can do TV dramas and variety shows, and I can guarantee that the audience will be willing to become members. Such a big effect, 30.00% of the shares are not enough."

Lin Ziyi said: "I believe in your talent in making movies, but TV dramas and variety shows are completely different from movies, you are sure you can do it."

Xu Nan: "Can you prove it with facts?"

Lin Ziyi hesitated: "If you can really create enough new content for the video platform and let the audience become members, then it is not impossible to give you a little more shares."

The two then had another argument.

The final result of the debate is as follows.

Xu Nan and Lin Ziyi each hold 30.00% of the shares, and the remaining 40.00% of the shares will be distributed according to the role played by both parties in the development of the video platform.

To put it bluntly, whoever can get more consumers to become members on the video platform will get more shares.

Much more work.

Both parties can be satisfied with this condition, and both feel that they can get more in the future.

Whether it is Lin Ziyi or Xu Nan, they are all arrogant people, and no one thinks that they are inferior to anyone else.
