For the sake of secrecy, Fu Zhongle did not communicate with the founders of other literary websites present before regarding the idea of establishing a joint company, but only proposed to hold a major cooperation, hoping that they would come to Beijing to negotiate together.

So when he put forward his real idea, many people's eyes widened and they showed surprise, after all, cooperation and union are two different concepts.

"Establish a joint company?" Weng Zhengtao touched his chin with his hand, looked out the window, and said slowly, "Theoretically, it's not impossible, but it's very difficult to operate." If we do set up a joint company, how will the management build it, and how will we arrange it?"

"yes, there's no way around it. Originally, everyone had their own business model, but once a joint company was established, it meant breaking their own painstaking management model and becoming a small shareholder of the joint company. It may be very difficult to integrate so many different styles of websites together to meet the demands of everyone who sits again. Feng Binghe said, "Mr. Fu, do you have a feasible plan for the establishment of a joint company?"

In fact, many people here know that with the increasingly fierce competition in the online literature industry, there is not much room for survival in the future.

But if they become minority shareholders after the group, they will not have much power in the joint company, which is equivalent to changing from a chicken head to a phoenix tail, which is very uncomfortable for many founders.

Therefore, when Fu Zhongle proposed the idea of establishing a joint company, there were many discussions on the scene, and there were many voices of doubt.

Fu Zhongle paused slightly: "Mr. Feng, the specific plan needs to be negotiated by everyone, and I can't be the master." First of all, is there any interest in my project? If no one is interested, then we will have to fight on our own, and we will not have to talk about it anymore. ”

"Mr. Fu, we are a small website, if we set up a joint company, it will not account for more than 5% of the shares, I think instead of asking for this small share, I should sell the entire website to you, what do you think?" said Zheng Hongda, the founder of Tudou Literature Network.

Zheng Hongda's opinion has also been agreed by several small websites, after all, they are all marginal forces in online literature, even if they form a joint company, they will be marginalized by the company, rather than this, it is more cost-effective to take money and leave.

In the future joint company, only Fu Zhongle, Feng Binghe and others will have real dominance, and a large number of founders are just marginal, and they may have to be a business department manager under their hands and obey their command, which is not attractive.

Fu Zhongle also seemed to expect that the founders of the website sitting here would probably be divided into two opinions.

One is to agree to the union, this kind of website is generally large, and they are willing to continue to operate the business of online literature, and in the future joint company, the founder can also have a certain weight, and it is relatively suitable for them to stay warm together.

Another opinion is that it is better to sell the website to the joint company, and not to take the small shares yourself, and just take the money and leave the market.

This kind of website is generally small, and the founders may not be able to enjoy enough status in the joint company, and may even be inferior, so they are not interested in continuing to do online literature, and are more willing to take the money and go to other industries.

"After listening to everyone's discussion just now, I have a general understanding of what everyone means. "Some people are in favor of setting up a joint company, and some people are willing to sell the website. On the whole, everyone knows that if we continue to operate independently like this, we will definitely be broken by the origin Chinese network, so reform is the general trend. So, let's first make a statement, how many joint companies have been established in a unified manner?"

"I agree. ”

"I agree. ”

......

Feng Binghe, Weng Zhengtao, and three or four others took the lead in expressing their opinions.

It can be seen that they and Fu Zhongle's ideas are basically the same, after all, they have established a joint company, they still have a certain right to speak, and they occupy more shares, which is more affordable.

The rest of the founders were silent, after all, their websites were too weak, and if they wanted to be united, they were also part of an underappreciated motley army.

But if they don't join forces, they will be alone, and they will have no competitive advantage, and they may soon be eliminated. Once the literary websites in the market are really reshuffled, the boss is undoubtedly the origin of the Chinese network, and the second must be the future joint website, then these two major websites will increasingly oppress other small and medium-sized websites, and eventually drive out the vast majority of small and medium-sized websites.

In the field of Internet entrepreneurship, it is generally faced with such a rule, a hundred flowers bloom in the early stage, mergers and bankruptcies continue in the middle stage, and only one or two giants are left to monopolize the entire market in the later stage.

From the current point of view, with the sudden emergence of the origin Chinese network, the development process of the domestic online literature market has been greatly accelerated, and it will soon enter the mid-term fighting stage.

This stage is very cruel, more than 90% of the websites will die, there will not be too many survivors left, and only the websites with strong survivability can survive the upcoming fight.

Fu Zhongle has a rough score in his heart, Feng Binghe, Weng Zhengtao and others are the objects he wants to focus on, as long as they nod, most of this can be done. At present, it seems that as long as a few large websites have formed a joint company, other small websites will be dispensable.

"Well, we can take it one step at a time, and we can go back and think about it. At present, we can take the lead in establishing a joint company and start the official operation. If other websites are willing to join in the future, we are more than welcome to do so. Fu Zhongle said a few beautiful words.

In fact, everyone here knows that once a joint company is established, then there is no website to opt-in at today's meeting, and it is very likely that it will not be able to join. After all, the joint company has a certain market share, and in the current domestic online literature industry, it is also a relatively large-scale website, so how can it be said that you can join if you want to.

At that time, even if the joint company agrees to join the new website, it will be significantly shorter in status than the first batch of veterans, and the already weak voice will be even less.

The people here are not stupid, this meeting, in fact, is a standing meeting, no matter which side you choose, it is irreversible, and if you want to change your mind in the future, the price will be many times higher than today.
