Before Gong Yu introduced himself, Li Mo recognized the CEO and founder of Qiqi.com.

Although Gong Yu temporarily lost control of the company in the previous half a year because of the financing obtained by the Strange Network in advance, to be honest, if it wasn't for the deep enough foundation he laid, after such a round of "losers", the Strange Network may not be able to have the last chance now.

Li Mo put down the coffee cup in his hand and stretched out his right hand towards Gong Yu, "Hello, I'm Li Mo, this is the producer of our drama "Love Apartment", Zong Shuai. ”

While shaking hands, Li Mo used a little force, "I didn't expect you to receive us, we are really flattered." Mr. Gong!"

"Let's all sit down", made a gesture to beckon Li Mo and the two to sit down, Gong Yu was still a little surprised that Li Mo could recognize his identity, "Mr. Li has seen me?

Li Mo didn't answer his question, but apologized first, "First of all, I need to apologize for the lie I just told to the staff of your company, Brother Zong and I have not made an appointment with anyone in your company. The reason why I say that is just that I hope to get a chance to meet with your company, as for why I was able to recognize Mr. Gong......

"Because before I came, I knew some information about the managers above the department manager of your company. Li Mo grinned, "And Gong Zong's is the most legendary in my opinion." ”

"Oh?" Gong Yu smiled playfully, "I didn't expect me to be legendary." ”

"Yes", Li Mo nodded seriously, " In my opinion, Mr. Gong's experience is very legendary, you graduated from Qinghua University with a major in automatic control theory and application, but became the founder, president and CEO of Jiaodian.com, and then entered the company, and served as vice president, president, and CEO in six years, when you reached the top of Sohu, you left Sohu to found Infinite Xunqi, and now you are the founder and CEO of Qiqi.com, you have engaged in websites - Internet integrated enterprises - integrated information service platforms - video websites, these are almost completely irrelevant industries in the eyes of ordinary people, but you have achieved success in every position。 ”

Li Mo shrugged his shoulders, "If such a life is not a legend, then I really don't know what a legend is." ”

Although Gong Yu is a little complacent about his past in his heart, it is the first time in his life that he is praised as a legend in front of him.

What's more, the first thing Li Mo said was to admit his previous deception and apologize for it, from this point of view, this guy can be regarded as a frank guy.

It is not a serious sin to use some small means in order to achieve a goal, otherwise there would not be a saying that "big things are not informal".

Gong Yu felt more and more in his heart that Li Mo had become more pleasing to the eye.

"Just now Mr. Li said that he is the director of the drama "Love Apartment"?" Since Li Mo held himself so high, Gong Yu felt that he should also respond with two sentences, "It's really young and promising." ”

"Compared with Mr. Gong, I'm just a small character", Li Mo naturally didn't take Gong Yu's politeness seriously, and went straight to the topic. "I don't know what Mr. Gong thinks of this "Love Apartment" we brought over?"

Gong Yulai had asked people to call up the relevant information of "Love Apartment" before, and the script was naturally not something that he, a non-professional, could tell whether it was good or bad, and he was more concerned about the project planning book.

Li Mo because of the influence of the memory of his previous life, when writing this plan, the target group was the executives of the investor or the issuer, although the staff of the strange network who handled the documents before had labeled it as "worthless" and marked it, but after Gong Yu read the project plan, he felt that the problem was the person who read the plan - this thing was not for middle managers at all.

Only those who have a sufficiently high vision and a sufficiently high vision can see what is contained in this planning book.

And Gong Yu is just such a person.

When Li Mo turned the topic back to the "Love Apartment" project, Gong Yu also started his own negotiation mode.

"I'm a layman when I evaluate the script of the TV series", Gong Yu opened the project plan in his hand and showed weakness, "But judging from the project plan, this is a work with both characteristics and shortcomings." ”

"Having characteristics means that there is something to pay attention to, isn't it?" It is rare to have a "pole", and Li Mo immediately began to climb up.

Gong Yu naturally wouldn't let him grasp the topic so easily, "But shortcomings will also drive away those who are attracted to it." ”

"Mr. Gong, there has not been a film and television work without shortcomings in this world before, and it will not appear in the future. When Li Mo chose to shoot "Love Apartment", he naturally knew what the shortcomings of this work were, "Even the top three IMDB rated "Godfather" series and "The Shawshank Redemption" have their own problems. ”

"Let's take the current sitcom market as an example", Li Mo took a sip of coffee from his cup and continued, "The earliest sitcom in our country was "I Love My Home", and it has been almost 30 years now.

Although Gong Yu usually doesn't have much time to watch TV, as the CEO of a video website, especially a video website that has completely abandoned the model of user-generated content, he still has a certain understanding of the TV drama market.

"Differentiation is not enough!" Li Mo finally said his true thoughts, "These works are only imitated to a certain extent, drawing on "I Love My Family", only "Wulin Gaiden" took a different path, so it succeeded." ”

"Mr. Gong, I was born in 1990, and I should be considered a proper post-90s generation, so I know the thoughts of young people who are about the same age as me, what they pursue is individuality, differentiation, and self-expression. And now there is no work on the market that has been filmed for young people of our age, and for me, this is a blank market, waiting for someone to occupy it. ”

"What is waiting for people to occupy is not only the young market of sitcoms, but even the field of online video websites where your company is located, there are still many territories that no one has occupied. ”

Gong Yu actually didn't pay attention to what Li Mo was saying for a long time, and he only had the words "differentiation" in his heart.

Unexpectedly, he thought about the question for a long time without an answer, and finally was woken up by a twenty-one-year-old hairy boy, even if Gong Yu is not yet forty years old, at this moment he also had a suspicion of "Is it because I am old?"

Although I don't know if this guy is intentional or unintentional, after all, he has awakened the key to the future development of a company, so Li Mo in Gong Yu's eyes has also become pleasing to the eye.

"Oh, I didn't expect Director Li to be not only proficient in the directing industry", Gong Yu completely looked like he was watching a good show, "It seems that he also has his own experience in the operation of video websites?"

Li Mo simply let it go at this time, anyway, the things in his mind were all things that he had already walked through and succeeded in the strange network in his previous life, and now he was using it to fool the palace of this world, and he didn't have any pressure.

"Mr. Gong, I also knew about your company's business structure before I came", Li Mo first said in this way that he was not ignorant of the operation mode of Qiqi.com, "Your company was able to achieve the third place in the Internet click ranking in just one year, and the fundamental reason is that your company uses much higher funds than other websites in this process." ”

Li Mo said as he used a pen to list some data on a blank piece of paper for comparison.

Judging from these figures, the expenditure on the purchase of film and television rights on the website is almost 35 to 40 percent higher than that of the oil depot network.

Although Gong Yu watched quietly on the side, in fact, deep down he had set off turbulent waves, although there were many inaccuracies in the data results listed by Li Mo, but Gong Yu had attributed the reason for the inaccuracy of the data to Li Mo not getting the real statistics, and it was completely based on some news circulating in the industry for simulation calculations.

But even so, the problems these figures show are shocking enough.

Gong Yu himself naturally got the company's internal statistical results, and in that table, the funds used by Qiyi.com in this regard were ten to fifteen percent higher than the results "calculated" by Li Mo......

"If your company continues to compete with the oil depot network in the same way, there is basically no chance of winning", Li Mo unceremoniously asserted, "because the layout of the oil depot network is much earlier than your company, and it can even be said that it has now walked on the road of a virtuous circle, and it is expected to start making profits in the next few years." ”

"And what about your company? I don't know how to use the condition of having a unique mobile phone client, but blindly compete with the oil depot network for past resources, which is simply putting the cart before the horse. Li Mo looked sad, "Mr. Gong, most of the mobile phones that can carry your company's mobile phone client are medium and high-end configurations used by young people, and the viewing habits of these young people are different from those of previous netizens, they hope to chase dramas in their own fragmented time, and hope to see the latest TV series works anytime and anywhere." ”

"What your company's film library needs to be filled with the most at the moment is actually the works that have been popular with young people in recent years, such as ......"

"A sitcom like 'Love Apartment'?"

"Uh......" Li Mozheng said energetically, and was suddenly choked, but he was also a little embarrassed, "Everyone is rich, everyone is rich." ”

Hearing now, Gong Yu has roughly understood Li Mo's intentions and thoughts, although this guy is constantly promoting "Love Apartment" around the corner, but I have to admit that he said that the business philosophy of the website is still very reasonable.

No matter what, if you can wake yourself up at this time, Gong Yu still accepts this feeling.

If the drama "Love Apartment" can be completed, it will also be very beneficial to the competition for the market of Qiwei Network in the future.

Since cooperation is beneficial to both parties, Gong Yu does not mind sharing benefits with Li Mo.

Although it is impossible to sign a formal contract because "Love Apartment" has not yet been completed, there is nothing wrong with an intentional exclusivity agreement.

After spending three tense days in the imperial capital, Li Mo and Zong Shuai flew back to the magic capital before the crew's annual leave ended.
