Chapter 302: Tudou's New Channel

Jiang Hui accompanied President Hu and his entourage to visit the school intranet, Tudou and other office areas, and at the same time introduced the situation of each company in detail.

"Is it possible for all users to upload their own videos?" and what are most of the uploaded content?", asked Principal Hu when he visited Tudou.

"We have a moderation team, and as long as the approved videos are put online, most of them are funny content or life scenes taken by some netizens," Jiang Hui said.

"Do you have any ideas for working with the school on this issue?" said Principal Hu.

Tudou is now beginning to get involved in the acquisition or authorization of online copyrights for movies and TV dramas, and in addition to the Paike channel, there are also movie channels and TV drama channels. Principal Hu's mention of this made Jiang Hui think that a new channel might be launched on Tudou.com.

"Principal, our school now has fifty or sixty majors, and each major has a large number of courses, can you choose some courses from teachers who have a good response from students, and arrange for Tudou to arrange personnel to shoot them and upload them to the Internet for everyone to learn for free?" Jiang Hui asked.

As soon as President Hu heard about Jiang Hui's proposal, his eyes lit up. As a scholar-type official, he has a good understanding of the academic community and also has the political sensitivity of officials. Recording the excellent courses of the Imperial University of Technology and putting them on the Internet can not only promote the reputation of the Imperial University of Technology, but also serve as a separate "famous school video open class" project, led by the Imperial University of Technology, Tudou.com is responsible for the implementation, the initial course of the Imperial University of Technology is mainly based on the courses of the Imperial University of Technology, and slowly the excellent courses of Huaqing University, Kyoto University and other famous schools are also recorded and put on the Internet, creating an open free course platform for netizens who love to learn. After forming a reputation in this way, it is a great political achievement.

"Xiao Jiang, don't you mind if I call you that, right? Your idea is very good, Imperial University of Technology fully cooperates with Tudou.com, and I can also arrange for the school office to help you contact other universities to make this project bigger and stronger", President Hu said with a smile.

"Great, I want to do this project, which is to accelerate the flow of knowledge and information, benefit all Celestial Empire netizens, so that more people who do not have the opportunity to go to university can also hear the university courses, and more college students can hear the knowledge of other majors. In addition, although the current video advertising is very popular, I promise that Tudou will not carry out any advertising and marketing on the open class channel, maintain the public welfare and purity of the channel, make the Tudou open class bigger and more refined, form a word of mouth, and serve the majority of netizens," Jiang Hui said.

For the open class project, although Jiang Hui promised not to carry out any advertising and marketing in this project, as long as the project is done well, it will naturally enhance the reputation of the entire Tudou network and indirectly make other channels profitable. At the same time, most of the people who will go to see the Tudou Open Class are high-quality netizens, which is also very beneficial to improving the image of Tudou in the hearts of netizens. Now the most popular channel on Tudou is the Paike channel, but this channel determines that the content is lower than that of the Riba people due to the attributes of the paike, and some intellectuals may not be able to see it, Jiang Hui also hopes to take this opportunity to build Tudou into a platform for elegant and vulgar sharing.

"You come up with a plan as soon as possible, and we can start implementing it after the school starts in September, first recording a one-month course, and then launching it on the National Day, which can be regarded as a gift for the National Day, what do you think?" said President Hu.

Gifts for the National Day, gifts for the XX anniversary, gifts for the XX Festival, this is a commonplace thing in the Celestial Empire, as long as things can be done, Jiang Hui does not reject what name to use.

"No problem, I will hold a meeting in the company this afternoon to discuss this matter, and then set up a special person to be responsible for docking with the school office, and strive to do a good job in the project of video open classes of famous schools," Jiang Hui said.

"Okay, Xiaolin, you are responsible for docking with Tudou.com, and you must cooperate with them to do a good job in recording the open class," Principal Hu said to one of the staff around him.

"Thank you for the principal's support, I will trouble Mr. Lin in the future", Jiang Hui said with a smile.

"By the way, I have received the invitation to the groundbreaking ceremony of the Korn Kuai Group data center that your company sent me before, and as long as there is no urgent matter arranged at the moment, I will definitely attend," said President Hu.

The groundbreaking ceremony of Korn Ferry's data center was scheduled for August 25, and the guests' invitations were mailed out after reporting to Jiang Hui before the rain. In addition to the relevant leaders of the Imperial Capital University of Technology, the relevant leaders of the sea area, contractors, suppliers and other relevant personnel, Jiang Hui also asked Shanyu to send invitations to Mayor Wang and others. It's one thing to send this invitation or not, and it's another thing whether people come or not. The land for the data center was provided by Mayor Wang's inspection under the instructions of the Haihai District, so it is reasonable for Jiang Hui to ask people to be present, but so far, no official reply has been received from the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee.

The data center of Guanghui Group is 500 million yuan each invested by the school intranet and Guanghui Games, and Guanghui Technology leases part of the purchased land to the data center, and the total investment has actually missed 1 billion, which is a relatively large project in this year. In fact, the school intranet can only take out more than 300 million funds now, but the next 150 million will be no problem as long as it is prepared within next year. And Korn Glory Games has more than one billion funds left so far, and there are still 500 million after taking out the 500 million.

He was not sure whether the profitability of Guanghui Games could be sustained, so Jiang Hui once thought about raising funds at the end of the year, such as Intranet, Tudou, YY Live and Meituan, and then speed up to seize the market. But now that Korn Kuan Games has its own 500 million funds, it is completely possible to digest it internally before considering financing.

Intranet, Tudou, YY Live, and Meituan are now all starting to enter the international market, and the money raised before is almost gone. Stimulated by Google's listing, there has been a trend of accelerating the entry of various funds into the Internet, and Jiang Hui also feels that it is necessary to burn money to let the companies of the Guanghui Group gain a firm foothold in the industry and set a high threshold for latecomers. In particular, Jiang Hui has high hopes for Tudou, hoping to buy a large number of network licenses or network copyrights from various film and television companies before competitors reflect it, and then improve the quality of Tudou's movie channels and TV drama channels to attract more high-quality customers to Tudou.

After Jiang Hui led President Hu and his entourage to visit several companies, they returned to the conference room to communicate for a while, and the time was almost half past eleven, and the inspection was basically over.
