Chapter 639: Drawing Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron

The main table is very close to the stage, Zhang Ran walked on the stage, stood by the oil painting, and watched Jingtian walk towards the stage, the swing of the waist reminded people of a poem, "It seems like a light cloud covering the moon, fluttering like the snow of the wind."

Jing Tian walked on the stage and hugged Curan warmly, and it could be seen that she and Curran not only knew each other, but also knew each other very well. Immediately afterwards, she walked up to Zhang Ran, just like an ordinary student, and said a little shyly: "Teacher Zhang, I am Jing Tian, a student of Level 07 of Nortel's Performance Department.

"It turned out to be a student of Teacher Wang Chunzi. Zhang Ran looked at Jing Tian, who didn't have European-style double eyelids in front of him and had a little baby fat, and thought to himself that no matter how rich you are, no matter how old you are, I only look for suitable actors for my play, and said lightly, "I can spend so much money to buy a worthless painting, I thank you on behalf of the children!"

Jing Tian didn't notice that Zhang Ran's tone was a little cold, but there was a kind of excitement of a little fan seeing an idol, and he couldn't help waving his hand and said, "Teacher Zhang, this is what I should do!"

Colan called the model holding the certificate over, asked Zhang Ran to issue the certificate to Jing Tian, and then asked Zhang Ran and Jing Tian to stand in front of the oil painting and take a group photo.

After taking a group photo, Jing Tian walked off the stage with the certificate in his hand.

Zhang Ran didn't leave, took the microphone from Ke Lan's hand, and smiled at the people present: "I really admire Bazaar, and I also admire Su Mang, I could have flown to the global fashion week to sit in the front row to watch the show, and participate in grand parties in various places, but I begged my grandfather to tell my grandmother to do charity." I especially like one of their slogans, make charity fashionable. Coming to the scene of Bazaar Charity Night today, I don't think it's a slogan, I really feel it, and everyone really did it. It's a really beautiful thing!"

As soon as Zhang Ran's words fell, there was a round of applause at the scene.

Zhang Ran raised his hand and pressed it, and when the applause disappeared, he continued: "The auction money for this charity night is to set up love computer classrooms in children's welfare homes across the country, so that thousands of orphaned and disabled children have the opportunity to use computers, and I am a teacher and want to contribute a little more, so I donate 20 million in my personal name!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience suddenly boiled. Today's charity night is really high, the girl named Jingtian just dropped a bombshell, and no one expected Zhang Ran to immediately drop a bomb with greater energy.

Has the renminbi depreciated now, why don't you take money seriously?

Curran asked in disbelief: "Zhang Ran, I heard me right, you mean donating 20 million?"

Zhang Ran nodded seriously and said, "You heard it right. ”

Curran wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead, bowed down and said, "Thank you! Thank you very much! On behalf of the thousands of orphaned and disabled children in the orphanage, I would like to say thank you!"

Zhang Ran smiled and waved his hand: "Don't say that, I'm just doing my best." ”

As the organizer of the event, Su Mang was the first to stand up and applaud Zhang Ran, Zhang Jingchu immediately stood up, applauding her boyfriend with pride, and then everyone around stood up and applauded Zhang Ran, they respected from the bottom of their hearts and thanked him for his generosity.

In fact, before coming to Bazaar Charity Night, Zhang Ran was ready to donate a sum of money. Bazaar Charity Night has a great impact, there are countless pairs of eyes staring, and Zhang Ran is very rich, some time ago the media also reported that he made more than 200 million yuan from changing Blockbuster's shares, so he must donate money, and he must donate more than anyone else, otherwise he will be scolded.

At the end of the dinner, on the way home, Zhang Ran sent a text message to Yang Shoucheng: "You can't let Zhao Wei join Huayi!"

Yang Shoucheng's reply was quick: "We are convincing Zhao Wei to join the Eagle Emperor!"

When Zhang Ran heard Yang Shoucheng say this, he was immediately relieved. Huayi has been suppressed by the peak of the century, and the prospect is bleak, but the Eagle Emperor is in the limelight and has the resources of the Hong Kong circle, so if Zhao Wei wants to sign a brokerage company, he will definitely choose the Eagle Emperor.

Early the next morning, the major domestic media published detailed reports about the Bazaar Charity Night.

Weibo, post bar, forum everywhere are talking about the process of this party, this charity dinner can be discussed too many topics, Fang Zumin and Zhang Ran bid, and finally bought a bag for 5.5 million, the mysterious beautiful girl Jing Tian spent 13 million to take a picture of Zhang Ran, and Zhang Ran donated 20 million, are all topics that people talk about.

Zhang Ran's donation of 20 million naturally won countless praises, but there were also voices questioning his show, but these voices were only a few, and they were quickly drowned out by the tide of praise.

Just when everyone was talking, Zhang Ran was sitting opposite each other with Zhang Chaoyang, the boss of Soarc, in the coffee bar on the second floor of Oriental Grand Hyatt.

The two met for only one purpose, to jointly crack down on the infringement of video websites.

Zhang Chaoyang looked at Zhang Ran and said with a solemn expression: "It is an open secret in the Internet circle that pirated film and television dramas are uploaded on video websites. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Chaoyang opened his notebook and showed Zhang Ran two pictures of screenshots of web pages. On the picture, two netizens with the names of "S Search Domestic Drama" and "Search Hong Kong and Taiwan Drama" have passed on more than 9,000 film and television works with a duration of more than 30 minutes.

Zhang Chaoyang said angrily: "You said that if someone didn't organize it, where would these users find so many film and television resources, and where would they have the time to upload them?"

The reason why video websites do this is that there is a safe harbor principle when it comes to intellectual property rights on the Internet, that is, if the website argues that it only provides information storage space, and the works involved in the case are uploaded by netizens, and they do not know whether they infringe the copyright of others, then the website does not bear legal responsibility. If you find that the website is infringing and ask the other party to delete it, and the other party refuses to delete it, it is illegal.

By uploading it by hand, the video site can argue that it was uploaded by a netizen, and I don't know, according to the safe harbor principle, I didn't break the law.

However, Zhang Ran knew that it was very inevitable for the video website to be held accountable, because the manual editing traces of the video website's web page were obvious, and more importantly, the video website made a profit, so he said: "I don't know what Mr. Zhang plans to do?"

Zhang Chaoyang stared into Zhang Ran's eyes and said slowly: "Now Melancholy is the largest video site, and there is also the most piracy, since we want to fight piracy, we should take this biggest knife, and we will join forces to sue Melan!"

Zhang Ran heard that Zhang Chaoyang was going to take a knife with Cool, and he wanted to laugh a little in his heart, he knew that this should be related to Zhang Chaoyang's old feud with Cool CEO Gu Yongqiang. Gu Yongqiang was originally Zhang Chaoyang's right-hand man, and from 99 to 05, he successively served as chief financial officer, chief operating officer and president in Soarc. Soarc was originally the earliest video website in China, but now it has been left far behind by Grim, which Zhang Chaoyang can't bear.

Zhang Chaoyang's purpose is very simple, cracking down on film and television drama infringement will inevitably lead to soaring copyright fees, Soarc is a listed company with abundant funds, while Cool is a new company with limited funds, once the copyright rises sharply, then it will not be able to afford it, and it will be in a disadvantageous situation in the competition.

For Zhang Ran, whether it is a melancholy or a potato, it is almost the same, but he feels that it is not meaningful to rely solely on the peak of the century and the arc to sue: "This lawsuit will definitely be won, but even if the lawsuit is won, how much can the court sentence them to pay? tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands? I think that since you want to do it, you should be ruthless, you have to beat the other party, so that they don't dare to come easily in the future, it's best to have a salary from the bottom of the kettle and cut off their back road!"

When Zhang Chaoyang heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, if there was any way to kill the gloom, he would definitely be happy to hear it: "I don't know how to say this, how to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle, and how to cut off their back roads?"

Zhang Ran smiled lightly: "What does the video website rely on for its income?"

Zhang Chaoyang said without thinking: "Of course it's an advertisement!"

Zhang Ran nodded, opened the video of "Providence" on Melancholy, pointed to the advertisement at the beginning, and said: "This advertisement is Coca-Cola, what will be the effect if we sue Coca-Cola together?" Zhang Ran saw that Zhang Chaoyang was a little confused, and explained with a smile: "We not only want to sue the infringing video website, but also add the advertiser who placed advertisements in the infringing video as the second defendant." If there are no companies to advertise, then will these websites dare to mess around?"

"This is wonderful!" Zhang Chaoyang was overjoyed when he heard this, slapped the table and said, "You are right, there are only two pirated film and television dramas that really get actual benefits, that is, websites and advertisers. Since advertisers have benefited, they are also suspected of infringement. A large company like Coca-Cola has always attached great importance to its image, and it is absolutely not something they want to get involved in this kind of copyright lawsuit, so as long as the advertisers withdraw, it will be tantamount to cutting off the cool back road! This hand is really wonderful!"

Zhang Ran took a sip of coffee and said lightly: "It's not enough to sue advertisers, it's better to bring big advertisers to our camp! I think we can set up an online video anti-piracy alliance, this alliance not only has a search arc, but also has the peak of the century, and at the same time can also bring in copyright owners, such as China Film Group, Shanghai Film Group, Mango Satellite TV, etc., and even Hollywood film and television companies, such as Fox and Warner Bros. As long as we can pull dozens or even hundreds of companies to our alliance, and then we use the reputation of the alliance to crack down on infringement, this will be done!"

Zhang Chaoyang was secretly surprised, Zhang Ran's strategy was much better than his own, this person really should not be underestimated! He looked at Zhang Ran and said with a smile: "It seems that even if we don't do it, your peak of the century will also make a move!"

Zhang Ran did not deny it: "I do have this idea, but we are now busy with the layout of the film and have not been able to free up our hands to do this. ”

Zhang Chaoyang laughed, and he really deserved the title of the leading brother in the domestic Internet search, and said with a smile: "Since you have been prepared, don't hide it, and say what you think!"

Zhang Ran poured out the idea of the online video anti-piracy alliance, how to invite the direct participation of the Copyright Society of China and the Beiping Copyright Protection Association, and how to attract organizations and individuals who have the requirements of the alliance and abide by the articles of association to join.

By the time the talks ended, it was almost twelve o'clock. Zhang Chaoyang invited Zhang Ran to eat together, but Zhang Ran did not agree, now that things like the Olympics are piling up, they are really inseparable from people. However, the two sides agreed to keep in touch on the issue of the anti-piracy alliance at any time.

On the way back to the operation center, Zhang Ran received a strange phone call: "Is it Mr. Zhang Ran?"

Zhang Ran responded: "It's me, I don't know who you are?"

The voice on the other end of the phone was very polite: "I am Lu Zheng of Starlight Film and Television Company, this is the case, our company has a project that wants to cooperate with you, I don't know when Mr. Zhang is free, I want to meet you." ”

Zhang Ran frowned when he heard the starry light Lu Zheng, sure enough, he still came!
