Chapter 25 Copyright Trading Conference

A week passed quickly, and on October 28, major copyright owners, video websites, and media gathered at China World Hotel.

The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.

Under the lure of the heavy money of six rooms, many copyright owners came. The video website can't come either, otherwise Six Rooms will buy all the film and television drama copyrights in 2009, and they will not be far from going out of business. Naturally, there is news and the media is indispensable.

The trade conference of the copyright owner and the video site and the multi-purpose hall for receiving reporters are separated, and after the trade conference, the six rooms and all parties will hold a press conference.

Although the six rooms have prepared a multi-purpose hall for reporters to rest, and there are various kinds of food in it, many reporters still look for interview opportunities outside the trading floor.

The owners of well-known entertainment companies and video websites will be stopped by reporters.

"May I ask how many film and television drama copyrights are ready for sale in Huayi?"

"We are ready to sell the film and television dramas we have accumulated in the past, and we have also brought more than 20 big dramas that will be broadcast in 2009, hoping to sell them at a good price. ”

"How much money are Tudou going to use to buy film and television dramas?"

"We don't have a specific budget, and although we don't have six rooms and deep pockets, we launched the HD Black Bean channel with all the genuine content in September, and we will continue to support the genuine ones. ”

In fact, when Tudou raised funds in 2008, it said that most of the funds would be used to buy copyrights, because if they wanted to go public, the copyright problem must be solved, but it was only in 2008 that the financial crisis became more and more serious, and they postponed the time to buy copyrights in a big way.

When the dazzling thunder in black suits appeared, reporters looking for an interview opportunity immediately surrounded them, and several people who were being interviewed were also left behind.

The continuous reporting in the past few days has made Lei Ming very popular in China, although it is still not as popular as some first-line stars, but it is much more popular than ordinary entrepreneurs.

"Six rooms spent hundreds of millions of dollars to buy copyrights, how does Mr. Lei plan to make a profit?"

"May I ask if the Lei family is really a Chinese godfather family in North America?"

……

Four bodyguards kept Lei Ming in the middle, keeping reporters out of reach, but their path was blocked.

Lei Ming smiled and said: "Don't affect the progress of the trading conference, I will answer a few more questions at the subsequent press conference, and there will be no shortage of heavy news at that time." Now let me in first, thank you. ”

After Lei Ming finished speaking, Cheng Zhong took his bodyguards to line up the reporters and protect Lei Ming into the trading hall.

There are also nearly 1,000 people in the trading hall, and there are too many large and small entertainment companies and copyright agents, and they sit in rows according to the six-room arrangement like elementary school students.

"Ray is always good. ”

"Ray is always good. ”

Seeing Lei Ming coming in, some people took the initiative to say hello, and some people stood up.

"Hello. ”

"Hello. ”

Lei Ming smiled and nodded, greeting people who said hello along the way, and walked to the front.

Liu Yan, the CEO of Six Rooms, was busy sweating profusely in front, and it was the first time he had made such a big scene, and he felt as if he couldn't figure it out.

Seeing the thunder, as if he had seen a savior, he walked over quickly and said, "Mr. Lei, I'm afraid that so many people won't be able to finish the transaction in a day." ”

"Just go according to the plan, there shouldn't be many bidders. ”

Lei Ming also felt that there were a lot of people, and his heart was still a little empty, but his face was still light and light.

Liu Yan saw that Lei Ming was calm and comfortable, and he also relaxed a little, and said, "Okay, Mr. Lei, please come here." ”

Lei Ming went to the small lounge to greet the invited leader.

How can there be a lack of leadership where there is a political record?

The copyright transaction of hundreds of millions of yuan is undoubtedly a major achievement of the relevant departments in 2008.

When the leaders arrived, Lei Ming invited a few leaders to come to the hall together.

As soon as Lei Ming sat down, the founder of Youku came over, exchanged a few words, and then asked: "After buying the copyright, are Liujian ready to distribute or be exclusive?"

Lei Ming naturally wouldn't be a second-hand dealer, and then sell it to other website rivals, and said with a smile: "The six rooms are only exclusive." ”

"Then we can only compete with Mr. Lei. ”

Soon, the moderator announced the opening of the trading conference.

After the speeches of the two leaders, Lei Ming walked to the rostrum and said: "It is an honor to invite all leaders and colleagues to attend the trading conference, and I believe that this trading conference will become an important node in the standardization of the video industry, and will also strongly promote the development of the film and television industry." Time is limited, so I won't say more. Thank you again for your attendance. ”

Lei Ming said a few words, bowed slightly, and walked down.

"Thank you Mr. Lei for your speech, then let's hurry up and start, the first bid is a variety show, please Mango Satellite TV. ”

The host is also very discerning and doesn't talk much nonsense.

"Our programs are sold for the rest of the year and throughout 2009, the first being our ace program "Happy Camp", which ranks first in the ratings of the same period in the country......"

Compared with film and television dramas whose ratings are more difficult to predict, the ace variety shows of each David TV are much more stable, and there are more netizens who like them. The major video websites are also very interested in variety shows, and when the people from Mango Satellite TV finished introducing them, they all looked at the people in the six rooms, waiting for them to offer the reserve price.

"Two million. ”

Liu Yan directly said the price that Lei Ming gave him.

Although Lei Ming has prepared several variety shows that will be popular in the future, "Happy Camp" is a program that has stood for many years, and he still has to grab it, and he can also attract traffic before the program produced by Micro Entertainment starts.

A few years later, the two million bids for the online rights of "Happy Camp" were undoubtedly a joke, but in 2008 it was sky-high.

The CEOs of many video companies looked at each other, and the small companies were not even qualified to ask for prices.

Although they all knew that the network copyright fee would rise sharply this time, no one expected that the network copyright fee would be raised to one million at a reserve price for six rooms.

While the copyright owner is happy to make a lot of money today, he is also afraid that other websites will not follow up.

However, they underestimated the determination of other video sites, burning money, attracting traffic, financing, and burning money again, this is the way video sites play.

If the traffic is gone, the remaining money in hand is meaningless, and the investor may withdraw the investment.

Of course, those who are qualified to shout are all big websites that have reached tens of millions or hundreds of millions.

"Two million and fifty thousand. ”

The sky-high price of six rooms was in front, and they were embarrassed to add 11,000 yuan, so they directly added 50,000 yuan.

"Two million and one million. ”

"Three million. ”

After two rounds of calling, the six rooms were directly increased to three million.

"Three million and fifty thousand. ”

Although the price is very high, Youku and Tudou still don't want to give up this program that can bring a lot of traffic.

The video website gritted its teeth and bid, and the copyright owner was delighted and scolded at the same time.

It turns out that our content is so valuable, it used to be bought at the price of cabbage on Dog Day, and it was pirated in large quantities.

When the six rooms called out "four million", Youku and Tudou also turned off.

Four million!

No one was willing to give out 400,000 before!

It's too bad, one person disrupts the whole market......
