Chapter 667: Be a Beacon (One Shift)

Liu Yun felt like he was in a fog, running aimlessly.

He ran, ran, and I don't know how long it took, until he finally ran out of the fog.

Suddenly, he looked back, as if perceptively, as if a huge eye was looking at him in the distant mist.

Inexplicably uneasy and irritable, his first reaction was to get rid of this giant eye and escape from its sight.

Liu Yun exerted all his strength, and felt that his legs and feet seemed to return

But no matter where he ran, forests, rivers, mountains, swamps, this giant eye always followed him, and he couldn't get rid of it from beginning to end.

At this time, Liu Yun finally understood that this giant eye was difficult to get rid of, and it might always follow him for a long, long time.

So he gave up, and looked down on it, and let the giant eye follow him, walking in the boundless place.

I don't know how long later, Liu Yun felt a sudden suction force from the sky in the distance, and then he woke up from the dream.

The room was huge, empty.

At this time, dawn had just broken and only a ray of light could be seen through the window.

Liu Yun had just woken up from a dream that he didn't know if it was a nightmare, and he rubbed his eyebrows a little tiredly.

"Is there any hint of this dream?"

There was a look of confusion in his eyes.

Liu Yun remembered that since the establishment of Youyou, although there have been some twists and turns in the process of development, it has always been able to turn danger into relief, which can be said to be smooth sailing.

Every investment he made has hardly been deviated, and the returns he has obtained have reached dozens or even hundreds of times.

"Maybe someone with a heart has quietly set his eyes on him. ”

Whether it is Ali or Tencent, they have gone through a lot of detours in the early stage of development, and almost no large non-state-owned company has been so smooth when it comes to a size like Yoyo.

Today's Youyou is like a focus of attention and is talked about by countless young people with entrepreneurial dreams.

Every year, how many young talents will start companies and look for financing with the goal of building the next yoyo.

Did anyone succeed? No.

In this rolling wave, there are many start-ups that fail to close their doors every year.

Liu Yun, as well as his yoyo, is an exception.

Although Tencent, another giant company, has not raised funds since 2004, their majority shareholder is a South African venture capital firm.

In the early days of entrepreneurship, Xiao Ma will also be at a loss for lack of funds.

At this moment, Liu Yun was no longer sleepy, he lit a cigarette, walked to the window and stood for a long time.

He understands that his every move now will inevitably be followed by countless people.

And every move he makes will definitely be noticed by those who have a heart and put it on the microscope.

A billionaire who is just 25 years old and has a net worth of tens of billions of dollars.

It occurred to him that he would meet with the person in charge of CCTV5 in a few days.

This is the first time that an Internet company has allowed an international TV station to be in such a passive situation.

Although with the rapid development of the TV media industry, the TV industry is no longer dominated by CCTV.

Mango Satellite TV, Dragon TV, Jiangnan Satellite TV, Sujiang Satellite TV, these local TV stations, have risen very fiercely in recent years, especially in the field of variety shows, which have already suppressed CCTV.

But they have one thing in common, these TV stations are all state-owned assets. The competition between them, like China Unicom and mobile, is just fighting left and right.

But Yoyo is different, it is an outsider, and what it grabs is the resources of top sports events that are known as scarce and cannot be replicated.

This is very different from variety shows.

In recent years, the reason why CCTV has failed in variety shows is because variety shows are either produced by themselves or imported copyrights.

If it is the introduction of copyright, it is necessary to have a strong variety show team to ensure that the introduced programs introduce their own characteristics in maintaining the original effect.

At this point, Mango Satellite TV has done a good job, of course, more often, it simply doesn't even buy the copyright, and directly uses it for plagiarism.

But there are only a few top-level sporting events.

For example, the Olympics and the World Cup, let alone in China, even if the whole world cannot replicate a similar event.

Such a precious resource, being taken by Yoyo, is equivalent to a stab in their back.

"My dreams, could it have something to do with this?"

I remember that in my previous life, the Guangzhou DIAN department also specially issued a document, repeatedly emphasizing that some Internet companies must not participate in the online copyright negotiations of large-scale international sports events.

Although they did not name them directly, many people knew it. These Internet companies refer to giant companies like Alibaba and Tencent that use money as paper burning.

You want the copyright of the Internet? Yes, let CCTV go to the Olympic Organizing Committee and FIFA to talk to you first, and then subcontract it to you!

You Internet companies, don't always think about making things happen and raising prices, you will only cheapen those foreigners, you know?

Liu Yundi's cunning lies in the fact that he played a beautiful time difference and won the network copyright of the World Cup football match in advance before the relevant documents were released.

Because the relevant documents did not come out when the contract was signed, it was valid.

This is like the Internet lottery that is very popular on the Internet today, as long as the document is not issued, they are legal by default, but when the document is issued, these websites all have to be closed.

Therefore, at the beginning of 2010, the GD General Administration issued relevant documents, stipulating that in the future, large-scale sports events can only be negotiated by CCTV, and then subcontracted to local stations and video websites.

As for which sporting events, the World Cup and the Olympics are named, and there may be the Winter Olympics, the Asian Games, and the European Championship in the future.

As for the world broadcasting rights that Yoyo won before the document was issued, it is a special case, and it already exists by default, but it is not an example.

"In the next eight years, the broadcasting rights of the three World Cups are enough for me. ”

Liu Yun sighed lightly, lay on the bed, and had no sleep, so he had to open his mobile phone and log in to his personal Weibo.

Then, he saw Yoyo on the hot search, as well as his own name.

It turned out that a few days ago, both he and Yoyo's official account published a Weibo with obvious directions.

Liu Yun posted a somewhat provocative Weibo: Those who look like me die.

Then it was accompanied by a picture with the image of Youxin.

The pertinence of this Weibo is obvious, which is to ridicule those APP products similar to Youxin.

Make a poor imitation.

Liu Yun first wants to tell the world that they are original.

The products of those who follow the trend and imitate them are copycats after all, have no grade, and cannot be put on the table.

It's like watching American dramas, and the audience will look down on those watch dramas, Korean dramas.

He wants to cultivate a sense of superiority among U-Trust users. When they see other people using products like Youxin, they can say disdainfully: "What is the meaning of using this knock-off?"

Of course, these competitors are insignificant, and what Liu Yun really cares about is Tencent, which is still on the sidelines.

And many netizens on Weibo also insisted that Liu Yun's news was actually referring to Tencent, even though they have not yet begun to develop similar APP products.

Not only that, at the suggestion of Liu Yun, Li Hui took some water armies and began to make waves on Weibo.

For example, the reason why U-Promise is popular now, partly due to the embedded function of YOYO red envelopes.

Because it is not difficult to imitate this function, several follow-up APP products imitating Youxin on the market have such wallet functions.

Li Hui's army took advantage of this to spread some hearsay on Weibo: If the companies behind these mobile-based instant messaging software do not have enough economic strength, do you dare to deposit money in these software? Aren't you worried that these companies will donate money and run away?

Then he added, with Youyou's economic strength, Youxin can definitely be trusted.

Li Hui spread widely through various channels through the water army and various marketing accounts.

And these rumors are spreading, spreading, and they turn sour.

For example, someone swore that their boss ran away with the netizen's deposit of a certain "about X artifact" on the market.

In short, Weibo is a platform that does not hold the public accountable, and when everyone says so, rumors come thousands of times, and it is easy to believe.

Even in the end, the parties came out to refute the rumors, but the current impression in the minds of netizens has become very bad, and the distrust of this product in their hearts will continue to deepen.

Invisibly, the reputation of Youxin has taken another step forward.

Another hot spot is the exclusive agreement between Youku and Weibo.

For similar social media products, only Weibo has the right to use the information of the Internet resources of the World Cup.

Obviously, the real target of this agreement is the penguin.

This means that another Weibo product, Tencent Weibo, is unable to use the online resources of the World Cup.

Many news media have verified official accounts on both Weibo, but pictures and videos about the World Cup can only be used on Youyou's Weibo, and on Tencent Weibo, only text descriptions can be used.

Under the trade-off, the gap in the number of active users of the two microblogs will only widen.

Liu Yun smiled slightly, after spending so much money to buy the network copyright of the World Cup, he should make full use of it.

Now, that's just the first step.

When he saw the comments of netizens on his Weibo, his heart moved, and an idea suddenly emerged from his heart.

Some netizens left a message: Mr. Liu, you have such a vicious vision, you can make a lot of money every time you invest. I asked who would win the World Cup this time.

Spain was the winner, the Netherlands was the runner-up, but will I tell you?

Liu Yun didn't think about it, directly forwarded this message, and then gave his prediction: champion Brazil, runner-up England.

He had an idea: let me be a beacon in this World Cup.
