As for the domain name, you can enter NETenjoy or the pinyin of the Chinese website name.

The full name of the domestic company is Jingcheng Wangyu Video Technology Co., Ltd.

The Eagle Sauce side is NETenjoy Inc. in San Francisco, California.

In terms of equity, the companies in Yingtu and Rabbit do not control each other and have no direct equity ties.

However, as soon as the two companies were established, they signed a strategic cooperation agreement that favored domestic enterprises.That is to say, copyright exchange, one episode of TV series is replaced by one episode of TV series, and one episode of movie is replaced with one episode of movie.This agreement is valid for 20 years. During the 20 years, the two companies can make requests for copyright exchange every year.

Such a copyright exchange must be a loss for Yingjiang's company. After all, the production costs and copyright purchase prices of many film and television copyrights purchased by Yingjiang are more expensive.

Some domestic Chinese film and television copyrights are cheaper.

But who made the two companies have the same shareholder now? Therefore, the two companies, which are still pocket companies for the time being, signed an agreement for long-term strategic collaboration.

In addition, Wenjing Media Holdings Co., Ltd. also acquired the overseas business of Jingjing Reading Network.

In other words, online articles have been published many years in advance.Historically, the publication of online articles overseas was mainly after 2014.

First, a group of enthusiasts who pirated and translated the online articles of Huazhongjia appeared in Southeast Asia. Then, websites such as Jiangjiang began to enter the Southeast Asian market and launched a wave of online articles overseas.

Then, around 2014, the Martial Arts World Network appeared in the eagle sauce market. The Chinese founder, who was good at bilingualism in Chinese and English, discovered a group of eagle sauce flower growers, martial arts and Internet literature enthusiasts, and created a spontaneous translation network out of love. Therefore, I gathered a group of fans and set up a website. In the early days, I used love to generate electricity, and later I gave a certain amount of compensation. Well, it was equivalent to readers crowdfunding to translate chapters. Some overseas translators of popular novels received The remuneration is hundreds of dollars per chapter, which is much higher than the original author's income in China.

It can be seen from this that there is a plan for online articles to be published overseas.

Later, there were a large number of Internet literary practitioners in China who specialized in doing business overseas. They copied the business model of domestic Internet articles. At the beginning, they were also translating in the martial arts world, and later they were generally localized.

Well, Korean online articles later imitated domestic online articles, and Goose Factory even invested in South Korea’s leading online article website, allowing it to learn from Zhonghuajia’s online article business philosophy and even copy the creative themes of Zhonghuajia’s online articles.

Then, the world’s online literature landscape is dominated by the Three Kingdoms with Rabbit, Stick and Eagle, and Eagle Sauce is only owned by Amazon, even the weakest one.

In terms of scale, because the flower gardeners' websites developed early, they also killed people indiscriminately after going overseas.Bangzi, on the other hand, replicates the creativity of the Chinese Internet article market. There are even leading domestic companies that teach Bangzi how to write Internet articles step by step.Later, someone complained that the people who were trained by Bangzi were not very smart. They had learned old themes, such as rebirth, time travel, and systematic writing, but why couldn't they learn it?

In Neon Kingdom, there is no step-by-step instruction. There are a lot of system flows in their own light novels, comics, and animations.

Chapter 371 Visiting Jin Yong

On March 2005, 3, Yu Weiwei arrived in Hong Kong City.

Accompanying them were several employees sent by the domestic head office. A coder was responsible for deploying and operating the website server, and would later recruit replacements.

"Weiwei, you are the CEO of this company in Hong Kong City!"

Zhao Han smiled and said, “With the help of some people from IDG, the funds are relatively abundant, with 1000 million US dollars at our disposal!

The salary standards are also directly based on those in Hong Kong City, with a monthly salary of 3 Hong Kong dollars.Others also have [-] Hong Kong dollars. "

"What are you responsible for specifically?" Yu Weiwei came to Hong Kong City with the position of being the top leader of Jingjing Reading Network in China and a promising future. On the one hand, the salary was obviously much higher, and on the other hand, she wanted to get more Large space for personal career development.

Just reading the website quietly has gradually become difficult to satisfy her enterprising spirit.

Zhao Han said with a smile: "What you have to do is to build a traditional Chinese novel website here in Hong Kong City and practice it first. In the future, there will be many opportunities to export successful domestic business models overseas and copy them to other markets.

After practicing in Hong Kong, I will go to North America. I will start an English novel website first. At the beginning, I will find some translators to translate domestic articles that I quietly read on the Internet, and adopt a payment mechanism!

After the initial translation, we quickly switched to mainly accepting local contract submissions directly.Domestic Jingjing Reading Network, in the future you need to take its model overseas, at least in developed markets with relatively large populations, they will copy a branch. "

"Only Jingjing Reading Network has different language versions?" When Yu Weiwei came, she seemed to have heard about the video business.

Zhao Han was very satisfied with his enterprising spirit: "Well, the other thing is that after NETenjoy, the video website is built, you will be responsible for the operations in North America, including the novel website and video website.

In addition to website operation, what you have to do is to constantly buy the Internet copyrights of some cheap film and television works, the Internet copyrights of some old films and televisions, and try to buy as many film and television copyrights as possible in Hong Kong City.

We also invest in film and television, on a smaller scale, with a film costing less than 300 million. Generally speaking, film and television investment involves budgeting for behind-the-scenes personnel as expenses behind the scenes, and we try to avoid any famous and high-paying stars.

For themes, you can consider Jingjing Reading.com, some popular themes, such as rebirth, time travel and so on.

With the Hong Kong film and television industry, we must first establish influence and win over those at the bottom, those who cannot afford to eat!They will cherish this opportunity!

High-level stars and great directors, let’s work together in the future! "

Yu Weiwei asked: "Can I understand that the main thing I want to do is to copy the domestic website business model to the world. The other is to start laying out the entertainment industry and open up the adaptation of film and television works from Internet texts. These adapted In addition to being shown in traditional theaters, TV and other media, film and television works also serve as copyright reserves for video websites."

"Well!" Zhao Han said, "It's just to copy some domestic innovation models overseas! In regions with hundreds of millions of languages, it is necessary to consider copying them. If the language is too small, there is no need!

By the way... India will not invest if it is not necessary!I don’t want the long-term development of the Indian market. It is a graveyard for foreign investment. All the money earned cannot be taken out! "

Although Yu Weiwei doesn't understand what it means to make money in India, the Indian flower is a joke she wants to take home.

However, Zhao Han understands it deeply.

For example, a flower gardening company later built a communication railway for India and built hundreds of them free of charge in advance. This is also the practice in the domestic market. They will give you a trial first and then make money through other purchases.

The Indian Communications Company was completely shameless and directly placed an additional order of 2000 yuan for 0 yuan.

Because there is a weird law in India. If the contract was signed for 0 yuan before, then you are not allowed to supply more than 0 yuan in the future. Moreover, if you pay 0 yuan for the tower, he only needs the tower and does not purchase other communication equipment. .

Then.The flower grower was frightened by India's shameless behavior and felt bad. He immediately canceled the Indian company and cut losses quickly.

Later, after the flower growers withdrew, and there were no cheap and good flower growers to provide technical equipment, European and American manufacturers raised prices several times, trying to drain the market.

The international giants... have been taught a lesson by India for many years. They know that when dealing with India, they mainly follow the following principles: do not transfer technology, do not set up factories in India, monopolize high prices, and continue to exploit them shamelessly.If long-term interests and reputation do not exist, long-term interests cannot be considered in India.

Magic fighting magic is the right way.

For those who were deceived by India and went to India to invest and build factories and engage in industrial chains, it would be a disaster. Basically, the assets invested in India were given to India for free by default.As long as you dare to make additional investments, don’t think about getting out of subsequent investments and profits.

Some traders with rich experience in foreign trade know that India can only accept full payment before shipping, and only do business with first-hand money and first-hand goods, so they are not easy to suffer losses.

……

2005 3 Month 13 Day.

After being introduced by IDG, Zhao Han, Chen Wenwen and Yu Weiwei visited Mr. Jin Yong’s home together.

As the master of martial arts novels at their peak, Jin Yong can be said to be the most powerful person in the field of contemporary popular literature.

As for other so-called literary achievements, I'm sorry, in the long history, famous works will be popular literature, not the so-called more literary works.

In a sense, if we want to evaluate the four contemporary masterpieces, Zhao Han feels that they should be Jin Yong's martial arts novels.

Perhaps, hundreds of years later, Jin Yong's martial arts will gain such a historical status after years of precipitation.

Any other writer, regardless of the Nobel Prize for Literature, or this award or that award, in fact... at best, they are just like the figures who were the number one scholar in the imperial examination in history. Can you remember those famous number one imperial examination scholars in history?

In addition, the works of authors who won various literary awards did not have many readers, and many of them were quickly forgotten by history, as if they never existed.

The truly vital novels are not those recognized by the literary world, but the works that have always been the most popular among the people. Decades later, their popularity has not diminished and they have become part of the cultural symbols of the people.

Martial arts culture is undoubtedly a new Chinese culture for modern flower growers, and Jin Yong is undoubtedly the absolute milestone and representative of it.

"Mr. Jin Yong, I am also a writer. I write novels on the Internet. "Dragon of the Ancients" is my work. I came to visit you with my work." Zhao Han said with a smile, "There is also me. A friend, I also brought "Swordsmanship in the Snow" by Miss Liu Mengcheng, the best-selling martial arts novel among the younger generation in China."

"I don't use the Internet very much. There are some things on the Internet that my family members printed for me to read." Jin Yong smiled, "However, I think every era has its own culture. In our era, writing martial arts novels in newspapers was the most popular thing." It’s the most fashionable and popular culture. You young people are even better, writing novels on the Internet!”

Chapter 372 Winning the rights to adapt Jin Yong’s martial arts games

“Master Jin Yong, in addition to being a writer, I am also a businessman in the Internet industry.

The largest online literature website in China and the pinyin input method used by half of China's computer users.

These are our company's products.We also have Wenwen Service Network, which combines the service industry with the Internet.

When people want to eat at home, they pay online and place an order, and the meal is delivered to their door.Want to find a tutor?

If your toilet is clogged at home, you can place an order online and have it fixed. "Zhao Han said with a smile.

Mr. Jin Yong leaned back on his chair and smiled: "When I was young, I also did business. I wrote novels to increase the circulation of "Ming Pao". At first, "Ming Pao" was not well-known and no one read it. Later I wrote it After the novel was serialized, the number of readers began to increase, and the newspaper gradually gained users and became one of the major mainstream newspapers in Hong Kong. I didn’t want to be a great writer, I just wanted to be a big boss. In the end, I got the benefits from writing. Achievements are higher than business achievements.”

"I originally wrote novels," Zhao Han said familiarly. "Later I felt that opening a website would allow more people to write novels, and I would be more promising in making money from it, so I opened a novel website. This would attract readers to pay to subscribe to novels. , we share it with the author. When a reader spends 1 yuan, we give the author 7 cents and we get 3 cents. Then, after deducting various wages and costs, we will make profits as the scale grows."

"Oh, how many authors do you have writing?" Jin Yong is not very interested in other business models, but he is very interested in online literature.

"Yu Weiwei, how many latest authors and readers are there on our website?" Zhao Han asked.

Yu Weiwei nodded and said casually: "Before I was sent to Hong Kong City, I was the editor-in-chief of Jingjing Reading Network. According to last week's data, there should be 1.1 novels.

There are 3000 serialized novels published every day and more than 900 signed novels.

The number of readers who visit every day is more than 80, and the number of daily paying readers is more than 6.The daily sales are about more than 3 yuan, and the monthly sales are 100 million.

The monthly subscription fee for the website alone exceeds 70 yuan. If publishing is included, the monthly author fee will be 150 million yuan. "

"Awesome!" Jin Yong said with a smile, "There are only a few dozen novel authors that our "Ming Pao" contributes to every month. Your business structure is much more powerful than mine. But, young man, you are not here to follow I'm talking about business, right? Just say what you have to say."

Zhao Han smiled awkwardly: "I am in Hong Kong this time to discuss financing cooperation opportunities with IDG Venture Capital. By the way, I want to meet you and seek cooperation with you! Mainly, I hope to get the exclusive rights to the game adaptation of Jin Yong's martial arts novel Authorization, I have no involvement in other comics, animations, movies and TV shows."

"People have adapted games before, but they didn't make much money." Jin Yong shook his head.

"That was the stand-alone era. At that time, in the Chinese era, there were only a million computers. Now there are more than 5000 million computers connected to the Internet. I plan to adapt the online game and follow the spirit of the original work!" Zhao Han said.

After some deception.

Zhao Han got what he wanted.

The online serialization copyright of Jin Yong's martial arts novels is officially authorized.

In addition to the copyright of the game, Jin Yong's martial arts creations were officially authorized. Jin Yong knew that most of the fan authors did not sue, but just stared at Jiangnan.

Therefore, Jiang Nan felt very wronged.

Facts have proven that Jin Yong’s martial arts fandoms in online literature have always been enduring.

Even if it is, by 2023, there are still Jin Yong martial arts fans who have achieved [-] orders.

People write about it every year, and I never get tired of reading it every year. This shows how strong the vitality is!

However, Zhao Han provided Jin Yong with fan fiction, and if he used Jin Yong's IP, he would share 10% of the sales revenue with Jin Yong.

According to Zhao Han's description, if there are 1000 authors writing fanfics of Jin Yong's novels, assuming there is a market of 1000 million per year, and 10% of the fanfics are authorized, they can also generate 100 million yuan, and they can continuously rely on other authors to write fanfics, and the original author Benefit.

And Zhao Han promised that if the amount is less than one million, Jingjing Reading Network will make up the amount by one million.

Jin Yong is very satisfied with this. He can earn more than one million yuan a year without paying anything, as long as he authorizes the copyright.

In the past, the rights to adapt Jin Yong's novels were authorized for tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands.Therefore, I don’t think copyright is too important.

In addition to the fan authorization of Jin Yong's novels, Zhao Han also won the exclusive game adaptation rights of Jin Yong's novels for 140 million a year, with a 20-year copyright authorization.The annual payment is 140 million yuan.

In addition to the fan adaptation authorization, that is, Zhao Han won the online novel fan adaptation rights and online game adaptation rights for all Jin Yong's novels at a price of 240 million a year!

The maximum term of the contract is 20 years, and after 20 years, priority will be given.

Jin Yong and his family are very satisfied with this!

The reason is... these days, many game companies from Hong Kong and Taiwan have adapted some Jin Yong martial arts games without paying any royalties.If you want to pursue it, some small studios have closed down.

Even if you sell the game copyright, you won't get much money.

Moreover, Jin Yong’s copyright is not as expensive as it will be in the future.Generally, the license for film, television, comics, etc. is only a few hundred thousand.

Games... because the Chinese game adaptation market has not yet developed. At present, overseas games are mainly introduced, so the copyright of Jin Yong's games is not valuable yet.

Historically, Sohu acquired the first game copyright for Jin Yong's martial arts novel "Tian Long Ba Bu". Rumor has it that it paid 100 million yuan to acquire the copyright.

It can be said that Sohu Changyou has made a lot of money from the game "Dragon Babu"!

Later, they also competed for the copyrights of many Jin Yong games!

Later, the price of Jin Yong's game copyrights naturally increased.Although there is no rumor about the specific price, I am afraid it must be at least tens of millions, and it may not be easy to get it.

After all, after the "Dragon" online game, Jin Yong's martial arts IP has been proved to be a cash cow.

Many game companies have obtained some Jin Yong martial arts IP, although they may not be able to make the most popular games.

But it can probably make money, and it won't be as difficult to attract new players as some unknown online games.

In essence, the most valuable IP is undoubtedly "Dragon Movie".However, take them all away and enjoy them alone.

After Sohu Changyou later obtained "Dragon Babu", it almost relied on this game and did not want to make progress.

Zhao Han felt that...for Sohu to make progress, it cannot lie flat and rely on Jin Yong's copyright to stop making progress.

We should challenge something more difficult, lie down... or let Zhao Han do it!

Of course, Zhao Han was just joking, and getting Jin Yong's copyright is not something he can do without peace!

Chapter 373 Return to Jiangcheng County

Zhao Han is preparing to flex his muscles and adapt Jin Yong's game copyright more perfectly than Sohu did in history.

Through online game business training, after making sustainable profits, a large number of technical development teams can be trained.
