Chapter 902: The online article followed
"Virus" is too eye-catching.
As a movie starring a Chinese star, with a box office of more than 100 million US dollars and not released in the mainland, although pirated and circulating, there are still many people looking forward to seeing the official version.
The video station has opened the comment function, not a barrage.
It's another feeling to communicate with a group of common fans under your favorite movies and compare with BBS.
No problem with clicks, only one problem:
"Hey, why is it stuck again?!"
"What a website, old Temoka!"
"Mom, it's time for us to install broadband!"
"Is it good to install broadband?"
On Sohu's side, Tang Jian organized a meeting.
"There are more than 500,000 registered users on the video site, and 80% of them have checked in for more than three consecutive days, but I don't think they are the main force that converts them into paid users.
Sign-in can only show diligence, not necessarily willing to consume. Those who don't sign in may not be bad for money, and we can't ignore it. ā
"Agreed!"
"Agreed!"
"The fee will come a little bit, and I think it can be launched next year, and I will give space to users who don't have much money but are very loyal. But as long as you become a VIP user, you can enjoy the best service.
By the way, Mr. Xu specifically advised, don't do any VVIP. ā
"What is VVIP?"
"It's that I pay to watch movies, but there are particularly popular movies online, and I still have to spend money, just less than ordinary users. ā
"Then it's shameless?"
"Shameless, shameless!"
"At present, the biggest problem is bandwidth, which is very stuck. It can't be helped, we have a strong propaganda and too many people online at the same time. ā
"Well, let's escalate this gradually. ā
Tang Jian concluded: "Video websites should cultivate users, especially if we insist on doing genuine ones, and we must be prepared to not make profits or even lose money for a long time."
Mr. Xu fully supports this project, don't worry about being cut, come on, everyone!"
In short, the video station quickly gathered popularity, and even the orange network was hot. There are more people watching the film, and there are naturally more people who rate it.
Historically, the three major portals have all been profitable this year.
Sohu mainly relies on advertising, which is obviously the benefit of the growth of the Internet market, and the decisive factor may not be Sals, but it must be related.
And now that Xu Fei has made a game, two cash cows, Sohu doesn't have to be hard haha.
............
With the attention of the central government and the development of measures, the capital has entered a special state.
The first batch of 6 designated hospitals was determined, 10 consultation hotlines were opened, and then it was announced that it was decided to open Xiaotangshan Hospital for centralized treatment.
Xiaotangshan is also a legend, it was once the palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and became a sanatorium after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
4,000 workers, seven days and nights, built a SARS ward in the north of the sanatorium, admitting one-seventh of the country's patients. It was later demolished and rebuilt until the corona was rebuilt.
The three members of the Xu family also began to act.
Times Media mainly assists the government in carrying out a series of publicity activities. Celebrities are very effective cards, and they talk about scientific prevention and control, which is always more widely spread than others.
Xiao Xu donated clothes, bedding, masks and the like to the hospital, and also distributed masks free of charge at bus and subway stations.
Of course, Zhang Li donated money, and she only had money left.
And just when the city of Beijing was getting quieter and quieter, Mr. Xu was very busy. At the same time as the video website was launched, the online article followed.
Speaking of online articles, I won't talk about it in the early days, but after 2000, the four literary forums in the Western Continent announced their withdrawal and established a certain space.
A certain empty is a generation of hegemons, monopolistic.
However, as the traffic increased, the server was overwhelmed and the browsing experience was extremely poor.
At that time, there were two directions, one was to invest in new servers and continue to develop online, and the other was to abandon the Internet and go all out into the publishing market.
Soku chose the latter.
This decision directly led to its withdrawal from the online text market.
Since then, many websites have sprung up, all of which have one characteristic: poor!
Most of them have tried physical publishing, but they can't sell the price, so what should they do?
The first to test the water was the Read-Write Network, which was established in 2002 and used SMS to collect fees.
However, due to the lack of accumulation of public works, too many problems of SMS charging, and serious exploitation of authors, it has never developed.
At that time, the remuneration was calculated according to the person, 0.06 yuan/person.
For example, if a member reads your book in a month, no matter how many words you read, you can only get 6 cents.
This was followed by a certain point in 2003, when the VIP system was implemented.
At that time, it was not like now, as long as you signed a contract, you could enter V, and at that time, only a dozen high-quality products were prepared, as a pioneer of paid reading.
I won't talk about some changes that happened during this period, but I can only say that I was lucky and survived at some point.
Especially in 2004, a certain point was acquired by Shanda, and said goodbye to that poor word. With the grand wealth and operation, a large number of VĪP members were added at a certain point, announcing the end of the Warring States period of online literature.
To sum up, there are several major conditions for the charging model:
The number of clicks must be sufficient, and there must be a large number of public works, these are the foundations.
The author has to pay high, so that there is motivation.
There has to be a big financier behind it to resist risk and development.
Easy to recharge.
All the Chinese networks in the world are available!
............
In an office with the smell of disinfectant wafting from the air, the person in charge of the website and the representatives of Changyou gathered, and Mr. Xu personally presided over it.
Due to the development of works such as "The Legend of Cultivating Immortals in the Flood Wilderness", "The Legend of Little Soldiers" and "Disciples of Hex", the website traffic is already not low, and the daily hits have reached more than 20 million.
The first batch of more than a dozen VIPs such as "Zhu Xian", "I am a hooligan", "How the bad guy is made" and so on, began to be implemented in May, but the first month was free, and it was officially charged in June.
2 cents/1,000 words, there are three recharge modes: mobile phone SMS, online banking and Changyou's point card. ā
ICBC launched online banking in 2000, and the point cards of "Journey to the West" and "Fantasy Journey to the West" were spread all over the country, using this channel to sell online point cards.
"The website and the author are divided fifty-fifty, and the remuneration will be paid in full before the 15th of next month. ā
ā......ā
Xu Fei listened and thought for a moment: "After a period of implementation, VIP will be divided into junior and senior, and how much can be turned into advanced by one-time recharge, and it is cheaper to read books."
There are more benefits for writers, such as how much money is not paid per month, and a guaranteed bonus can be issued. Or update the number of words every day to reach the number of words, and issue a full attendance award.
In addition, set up a monthly pass mode, make a one-month pass ranking, and give the top few grand prizes and big publicity. However, readers must spend a certain number of points in order to get a monthly pass.
The author must have a tendency to cultivate, this is also a position, and the circle is not big or small. A good author can bring great benefits, and the evaluation score is graded, and there are great gods and platinum ...... above the 12345 level."
Sizzle!
Everyone is convinced, and the boss is so skilled in online writing!
But someone asked: "Boss, this website will be under a lot of pressure and may lose money." ā
"You're like a video, you do it now, you look to the future. If I was afraid of losing money, I wouldn't do these projects. ā
Xu Fei reassured everyone: "Please rest assured, what we do today will only reflect its true value in five or ten years!"
