Chapter 458 Shopping Sites
John nodded secretly after listening to Veran Stillman's words, the people cultivated by the big family are indeed very capable.
Veran Stillman's trick is a bit similar to the practice of video websites, there are many video websites in the future, and if you want to pull users into your own website, you must take advantage of scarcity to provide some videos that you have that others don't have, such as some popular variety shows, sports programs, or buy out the exclusive broadcast rights of some movies and TV series, and invest in shooting some movies, TV series or low-cost online dramas.
And what Waylan Stillman is doing now is just turning into a disc, when she provides terminal services and John provides front-end content, then this disc rental company will have the exclusive film rights of John's film company, and fans who need to watch these movies can only go to her to rent them, so as to turn these people into their customers.
"Miss Veran wants to cooperate, and I naturally agree. John smiled slightly, "But my rental company may not be what Miss Vilan imagined. Let me first introduce my rental company, and if Miss Vilan still wants to cooperate, I am very welcome. ”
"I'm listening. "Veran Stillman pricked up her ears and prepared to hear what was different about John's rental company.
Devin Morgan, who was working on the side, was also attracted by this topic and looked at John.
"My rental company is not much different from the traditional rental company in the early stage, they are all building stores and providing rental services, but one difference is that in addition to the traditional store service, I will also create a rental website, when the customer wants to watch a movie, he can go online to the website to directly select the disc, or call to choose, and there will be a courier to deliver the disc to his home within an hour.
In the later stage, the rental website will gradually cancel the rental service, and only provide video services, which means that in the future, people who want to watch movies do not need to go to the store to rent discs, nor do they have to place an online order and wait for the courier to deliver the discs to their homes. When he wants to watch a movie, he can just open the website and select the movie he wants to watch, and not only movies, but also sports events, news, TV series, award ceremonies, variety shows, movie trailers...... As long as it's on TV, it will be there. ”
"And what does this site do for profit?" said Willan Stillman, who was interested in the video site.
"Membership and advertising. Most of the videos in it are free, but there will be a 1-minute mandatory ad before watching, and users who want to be ad-free or watch some membership programs must pay $10 to become a member. ”
Speaking of this, John remembered a certain You, a 10 yuan a month membership can only be free of advertising, and there are even movies to watch and even pay, John is ready to poison the American people in advance.
"Can TV shows and discs really be transferred to a computer?" says Veran Stillman is skeptical, but if it does, the site will make money.
"We are now developing a rental system, which has made progress and is expected to be operational in the second half of the year, as for transferring video to computers, we are still developing, the problem is not too big, and the future is not only to be seen on computers, but also on mobile phones, IB is now developing mobile phone chips and mobile phone systems. ”
"According to you, you should have other projects!" Willan Stillman stared at John: "You are now vigorously developing express delivery, and it has developed to Europe, if you only provide express delivery services in the early stage, you don't need to set up a courier company by yourself and develop it to the European market, your courier should be of other use, right?"
"Definitely. John smiled slightly and admitted very generously: "In addition to this courier company being responsible for delivering discs and some parcels, I will set up a shopping website this year, and then this courier company will deliver the goods on the shopping website to customers." ”
"Shopping site!" Willan Stillman also heard the new project for the first time: "What is it selling?" she was curious.
"Everything, clothing, electrical appliances, mobile phones and computers, books, home furnishings, medicines, including cars, as long as there are things for sale in life, you can buy them on this website. John had already asked IB Labs to develop a shopping website early on, and now it has been successfully developed, just waiting to go live, and Dani is now working on it in New York.
"You're offering so many goods, it's very risky, and it's going to take a lot of money. Veran Stillman felt that although the project was good, it was too much stock at once, and as long as a few items could not be sold, it would cause inventory.
"I don't stock up, I don't provide goods, I provide services. John explains: "The goods on this shopping site are provided by the merchants, and I provide the customer flow and service. ”
"It's like a supermarket, they provide stores, merchants provide goods, and supermarkets charge a commission?" said Veran Stillman, who immediately figured out how the site worked.
"It's pretty much the same, but the profit of this site is not in the commission, but in various services, such as advertising on the homepage...... Wait, only if the merchant spends money, we will help him carry out some promotion. ”
The more merchants settle in, the more items they provide, the more customers they have, and John will be able to make a lot of money as long as he provides a variety of services, and he can also gather a lot of money through this website, just like a certain treasure.
"I'm going to take a kick in this project, I'll provide funding, you provide technology and operations, we'll split it up four or six, how. ”
After listening to John, Wayne Stillman decided to get involved. Although no one does this kind of online shopping, there must be a market.
"I'm afraid it won't work, Ariana will also cooperate, so you can only get 30. John had promised Ariana that she would have her share of the project, unless she voluntarily gave up.
"30 is fine. Vilan Stillman nodded.
"That's a good fit!" John held out his hand and shook Wiley Stillman, and the two sides reached an agreement.
After the cooperation was discussed, Vilan Stillman saw that it was time to get up early and prepare to leave, and before leaving, she told John about Bowen Rothschild.
"Bowen Rothschild was driven away by me. ”
"What about CAA?"
"Of course I took it. ”
Veran Stillman smiled and left the Purple Star Manor, leaving John alone at the door.
The woman was moving too fast.
John originally wanted to finish what he was doing and then start getting Bowen Rothschild, and then get CAA by the way, but he didn't expect that Vilan Stillman had already started first.
