China Entertainment: Return to 2007

Chapter 45 Copyright War
Toll era?

Being seduced by Xu Ge, everyone present could not help but think about it.

Different from the small fights in the early days, today's video websites are all gold-eating beasts.

In order to compete for traffic and customers, the more server broadband is bought and rented, the more expensive it becomes.
You can start a business with just a few hundred thousand in the early days.
But now we don’t have hundreds or tens of millions, and we can’t even touch the threshold.

This huge cost pressure almost makes everyone breathless.

If the Internet were not currently in a blue ocean of explosive growth,

They have no shortage of financial sponsors;

Video websites have long been unable to sustain themselves.

"Director Xu, can you tell me in detail how to use "Wan Wan" to open the door to the paid era?" Gu Yongjiang couldn't restrain his curiosity and was the first to raise his hand to ask.

Xu Ge said with a smile: "It's very simple, use "Wan Wan" as a guide to start a copyright war!"

The big guys: "..."

grass!This Xu Ge is really not a good person!
Including Zhang Chaoyang, who is known as a good old man, more than ten big guys in the audience all cursed Xu Ge in their hearts.

The so-called copyright war,
To put it nicely, we support genuine and original products.
To put it bluntly, they are still burning money, grabbing people, grabbing traffic, and grabbing customers!

"Everyone knows the pros and cons of the copyright war. This is purely a money-burning game!" Xu Ge took a leisurely sip of water, put down the water glass, and continued with a smile: "I won't tell you more, I'll just ask A word to everyone,
Developed to today,
Which of you is willing to voluntarily withdraw from this game? ! "

Everyone: "..."

Shopping malls are like battlefields,
There is no mediocre person who can achieve this position.

Even though everyone knows,
Xu Ge deliberately provoked,
But everyone knows that no one is willing to give up now.

"Okay, since everyone refuses to give up, the copyright war will start sooner or later!"

Xu Ge said categorically: “Piracy is rampant now because the world is as dark as crows, no one has the confidence to take the lead, and the country turns a blind eye.

And some people support the genuine version and vigorously report it. Everyone thinks, can you continue to be free? "

Everyone: "..."

Xu Ge’s words are true.

Three years later, the video website was in trouble, burning money.

Boss Jia, who is returning to China next week, teamed up with his colleagues and went straight to work.
It still deeply regrets the majority of netizens.

What Xu Ge is doing now is just opening Pandora's box in advance.

"Copyrights are very cheap now. If you buy them earlier, you will naturally take advantage of them later."

Xu Ge took another drink of water to moisten his throat and continued to talk: "Once a certain website seizes enough copyrights, it can charge according to the trend.
By then, profits will only come sooner or later, and listing will naturally be smooth sailing! "

""Wanwan" is the first special web drama specifically for netizens.

Its excellence lies in the second place,

As time goes by in the future,
Due to its special significance, its value will inevitably become higher and higher! "

Xu Ge knew everyone's thoughts well and hit their weak point with one sentence: "Of course you can choose to ignore the copyright now and continue to have sex for free.
But once someone takes the lead in starting a copyright war,
By then, you will naturally know the consequences clearly. "

"Okay, I've said all that needs to be said. Now, please raise your hands and bid for those who are interested in purchasing the exclusive webcast rights of "Wan Wan".

The base price is 300 million!The highest bidder wins! "

Xu Ge likes conspiracy the most.
At this time, he was betting that these big guys were not on good terms with each other.

Bet that in order to compete for the first listing spot, someone will spend a lot of money!
really,

As soon as Xu Ge finished speaking,

Wang Hui was the first to raise his hand: "300 million!"

Gu Yongjiang was not to be outdone: "350 million!"

Zhang Chaoyang looked at Wang Hui on his left, and then at General Gu Yong on his right. There was a tangled look on his face, and he wanted to say something.
But in the end he shook his head and said the same: "400 million!"

"410 million!"

"420 million!"

"450 million!"

“…” As expected,
The bidding ended up being a one-man show for the Big Three.

As time goes by, there are fewer and fewer calls for price increases.
To the end,
After Wang Hui gritted his teeth and shouted out the high price of 550 million,

Zhang Chaoyang and General Gu Yong were silent.

Obviously, this number has reached the limit in their hearts.

"Is there any additional price?"

"Is it really gone?"

"If not, the title of the first company to be listed on "Wanwan" and the video website will belong to Mr. Wang of Tudou!"

Zhang Chaoyang and Gu Yongjiang calmly looked at Xu Ge who was desperately trying to bid on the platform.

He had no intention of speaking again.

see,

Xu Ge sighed and announced the result: "Okay, since no one bids anymore,

Then I announce that the exclusive online broadcast rights of "Wan Wan" are 550 million..."

Wang Hui breathed a long sigh of relief. He looked at Zhang Chaoyang and General Gu Yong with a smile, feeling extremely happy in his heart.

It is his lifelong wish to put potatoes on the market.
to this end,

He has even made plans to acquire the copyright after buying "Wan Wan".
When the time comes,
He publicly reported the dirty plan to kill his colleagues!

Xu Ge glanced at Wang Hui, and in his expectant eyes, he suddenly said something shocking: "...550 million won't be sold!"

Wang Hui: "..."

"Director Xu! What do you mean?!"

Being teased by Xu Ge, Wang Hui was so angry that he couldn't sit still. He stood up with a roar and cursed: "You have to be trustworthy in doing business! If you do this, you are simply asking for your own destruction!"

Zhang Chaoyang, General Gu Yong, and everyone were also shocked by Xu Ge's sudden remorse.
Everyone looked at Xu Ge as if they were an idiot.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wang. What I mean is that if I don't sell it for 550 million, I will sell it to you for only 200 million for "Wan Wan"!"

"What?!" Wang Hui looked directly at Xu Ge and said in disbelief: "Are you kidding me?"

"of course."

Xu Ge smiled and announced directly: "In view of Mr. Wang's sincerity, I decided to sell "Wan Wan" to Tudou for 200 million. Mr. Wang left a signature to discuss in detail, and the remaining people were invited to the first floor for a banquet. , I have prepared a banquet to thank you all, thank you all for coming today."

Wang Hui: "..."

Everyone: "..."

...............................

"Is this Xu Ge crazy?"

"Who knows?"

"I think there will definitely be a follow-up..."

In a private box,
Zhang Chaoyang and everyone left with puzzled faces.

Xu Ge asked Wang Hui with a smile.

"Mr. Wang, do you want to be the first to go public?"

"Director Xu, if you have anything to say, just say it." Wang Hui looked at Xu Ge warily, feeling wary of Xu Ge for the first time in his heart.

"Mr. Wang, your Tudou is the leading video website, ranking first in China in terms of scale, traffic and momentum!"

After complimenting Wang Hui, Xu Ge revealed his true purpose: "Everything else is enough. What is missing now is just the means to make money!"

"Other companies are deceiving Sosou and don't pay enough attention to "Wan Wan".
Only Mr. Wang has a sharp eye and sees the "Ten Thousands"! "

"So, I am willing to help Mr. Wang to really open the door to profit!"

Wang Hui: "..."
