Chapter 194: Rice No Financing

Halva Culture Co., Ltd.!

"Mr. Su, this season of The Voice has ended, and this is our company's current income. ”

Li Bo was holding a report in his hand, Su Wang glanced at it, and a trace of surprise swept in his eyes, he knew that the show The Voice would make money, but he didn't expect it to make such a profit.

In addition to the salaries of the staff, the investment in equipment, and the expenses of several mentors, plus miscellaneous publicity expenses, a program has an income of as much as 100 million.

"Mr. Su, this is not counting our copyright, before the show ends, many TV stations have already contacted us, including He Chang of Blue Channel, who is willing to buy the copyright of our voice. ”

Speaking of He Chang of Lantai, Li Bo is also a little funny, on the second day of the finals, Lantai held a celebration banquet, Li Bo naturally participated, at the wine table, He Chang's expression was happy and painful.

I am happy that the ratings of The Voice are so high, which proves that his original discernment has improved his right to speak and status in the station, but the painful thing is that with the high ratings of this first season here, how popular the copyright of The Voice is, needless to say, I want to get it.

There are no secrets between TV stations, and He Chang also knows that many people have already been in contact with Li Bo and want to win the second season of The Voice, while Blue Channel has a contract with The Voice and has the right of priority to renew, but this right of priority renewal is under the same conditions.

In case that TV station spares no expense, if Blue TV wants to get the broadcast rights of the second section, it will have to invest the same funds.

Needless to say, Mango Channel, which specializes in variety shows, is not bad for money, as well as Beijing TV and Modu TV, and even the TV station that specializes in emotional programs is also eyeing it.

Even before the show was broadcast, He Chang was called to the office by the director to have a meeting, although the director kept praising him, but He Chang also understood the subtext of the director, that is, he regretted the copyright of not wanting a good voice in the first place.

Regarding the director's attitude, He Chang is a little slanderous, and now he regrets seeing the popularity of the Voice program, but he was unwilling to take the risk at the beginning, and he didn't give the program team a dime.

To put it mildly, for the Blue Channel, this show is simply picked up for nothing, of course, in the director's heart, he doesn't think so, and he has always felt that the Blue Station has achieved a good voice.

"Mr. Su, I conservatively estimate that the second season of The Voice can have an income of 500 million, and if you exclude the production costs, you can at least have 300 million income. ”

Three hundred million!

This income has almost surpassed the current champion of domestic film box office revenue, and this is just a variety show, you can imagine the income from the third and fourth seasons, it can be said that the show "The Voice" is a hen that lays golden eggs.

"The Voice is definitely going to produce a second season, but I have another variety show here, you see. ”

Su Wang has two documents in his hand, both of which are variety shows he recently made, and they are also two programs that will become popular in the future: "Singer" and "Running Man".

After The Voice, it was these two programs that ruled the variety show, Su Wang deliberately checked it on the Internet, and at this time, the Bangzi Country had not launched these two programs, since this was the case, then he would take the lead in snatching it.

"Inviting well-known singers to participate in the program competition, I'm afraid this difficulty is a bit high, as for the running man show, the star game reality show, Mr. Su, I'm afraid it's not easy to shoot. ”

Hearing Li Bo's words, Su Wang knew that Li Bo was not very interested in these two shows, after all, with the success of The Voice in front of him, Li Bo didn't need to take risks at all, as long as he continued to play steadily, he would at least be able to eat for several more years with the show The Voice.

But Su Wang doesn't think so, he wants to produce these two programs not only for money, but also for the future to realize the ecological closed loop of his products, and his Chinese entertainment is also the top priority.

At this time, online video piracy is rampant, and there is no so-called copyright, and in a few years, the above will begin to rectify online video music piracy, and how many popular players have all fallen.

Slow broadcasting, storm video and audio, because there is no video broadcast copyright, finally withdrew from the stage, and in contrast, the online video companies under several major Internet giants began to carve up the market.

Su Wang's positioning of Hava Culture Co., Ltd. is quite a benchmark for the future iQiyi and Tencent Video.

In later generations, in order to fight with TV stations, these online video broadcasting platforms appeared a variety of self-made variety shows and programs, coupled with the decline in traffic tariffs, more and more young people began to abandon TV sets and chose to use computers and mobile phones to watch programs.

At the beginning, the discourse power of these online platforms cannot be compared with TV stations, many programs are first broadcast on TV stations, and then delayed for one day to be launched on the online video platform, and then when the delay is delayed, it has changed from one day to several hours, and then it has become synchronous broadcasting.

It's not that the TV station wants to give in, but because the online video platform has grown, and there is even a scene where the TV station broadcasts first and then broadcasts on the Internet.

TV stations compete but video software is actually inevitable, first of all, watch the program online, the audience can watch it at any time, but the TV station can only watch it when it is replayed, and the second is that the video software is a commercial company, with deep pockets, and you can invest money to buy the broadcast rights and copyrights of various programs, but the TV station cannot, in the end, it is an official organization, not only ratings.

So many viewers often scold the TV station for inaction, but this is really wronging the leaders of the TV station, the TV station is not like an online video platform, they also have to be controlled by the above, even if some programs are obviously not popular with the audience, but they must also be broadcast, after all, they are responsible for the propaganda work.

Content has a great impact on an online video platform, if you hold "Singer", "The Voice" and "Running Man", Su Wang believes that his online video platform will definitely not be weaker than iQiyi and Tencent Video.

For Li Bo, Su Wang can be regarded as understanding, his vision is still lower, and there is no problem in completing the work under the guidance of someone, but if he wants to lead an enterprise to expand his territory, I am afraid that he will not have this ability.

"You first see if there are suitable directors in the circle, and if so, invite them to come over for an interview, these two shows will be launched next year, and they will start shooting within this month. ”

"Okay, I'll ask in the circle. ”

Although Li Bo has no interest in these two shows, he also knows that the company is Su Wang's, and he himself is just a working boy, as for the director, to be honest, big directors who make movies may be scarce, but there is really no shortage of directors for a variety show.

Halva Culture Company, Su Wang is the exclusive holding, so the money on the company is equal to his money, more than 100 million funds on the books, Su Wang took away 30 million, and the acquisition of Qin Jiong's company cost more than 10 million, plus the money to buy a house, Su Wang has little cash on hand.

After communicating with Li Bo for an hour and understanding the company's operation, Su Wang left in a hurry, because he had to rush to Fanno.com next, because today was the day of Fanno.com's secondary financing.

As early as more than a month ago, a number of venture capital institutions have been in contact with Wang Xing, and under the leadership of Carlyle Investment Bank, these venture capital institutions want to participate in the secondary financing of Fanfu.com.

After the entry of China Daily, these venture capital institutions can be regarded as seeing clearly, as long as Fanno itself does not go in the wrong direction of development, even if Sina and Tencent are very strong, I am afraid it will be difficult to defeat Fanno.

What is lacking now is funds, and if the funds are in place, they can open the publicity mode, and venture capital institutions also take a fancy to this, so they want to join in so that they can get a piece of the pie.

The financing of 300 million US dollars is the figure jointly made by Wang Xing and Su Wang after the decision.

This year and next year will be a year of chaos in the microblogging industry, several giants have entered the microblog industry, the competition is bound to be extremely fierce, especially Tencent Weibo, although it seems to be not hot now, but Su Wang and Wang Xing have analyzed, once Tencent Weibo exerts force, it will be the biggest opponent of Fanno.com.

Therefore, before Tencent Weibo has not improved, Fanfu.com should take precautions and plan for a rainy day.

Of course, capital is not a group of people, $300 million is not a small number, the two sides have negotiated for a long time on how much shares are worth $300 million, and today there is finally an answer that satisfies both sides.

$300 million, worth 10% of the shares.

Su Wang also recognized this valuation, he probably remembered that when Sina Weibo was listed in 14 years in his previous life, the market value was between 5 billion and 6 billion US dollars, that is, the valuation was about 40 billion.

In contrast, the valuation of the current Fanfu network by venture capital institutions is not low, of course, there is a contract in this agreement, that is, before the listing of Fanno.com, these investment institutions can use a fixed price to acquire another 5% of the shares of Fanno.com.

This is the product of mutual concessions on both sides.

In layman's terms, the current valuation of more than 18 billion is a bit inflated, and in the eyes of venture capital institutions, the valuation of Fanno is about 15 billion, but venture capital institutions choose to accept the high valuation, but the premise is that in a few years, they will buy shares at the agreed price.

To put it bluntly, these venture capital institutions are optimistic about the prospects of Fanno.com, and now we are losing a little, and then Fanno.com will sell shares to us at a loss.

10% of the shares, according to the current share structure of Fanno.com, Su Wang is also going to give up 3.33333% of the shares, because Su Wang and Wang Xing each own 40% of the shares of Fanno.com, so even after this financing, the two are still the largest shareholders of Fanno.com.

"Mr. Su, don't leave in a hurry, I heard Mr. Wang say, you have been tinkering with a group buying website recently?"

After signing the agreement on Fanfu.com, Su Wang was about to leave, but was stopped by Wang Kaige of Carlyle Investment Bank.
