Chapter 31 The Enemy Fights Forces
Zeyue temporary office. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although the battle behind the Three Kingdoms War has entered a white-hot situation, you are dead and alive, but on the face, Zhao Zejun and Mr. Wu do not see the slightest estrangement, but are very affectionate.
"Mr. Zhao, it's too late to see each other, if I had known you two years earlier, I wouldn't have let go of a talent like you. ”
Mr. Wu looked at Zhao Zejun carefully, gave a thumbs up, and said in a very sincere tone: "Since its establishment, Zeyue has taken a series of measures that are dazzling, the godfather of the online novel industry, this title is well deserved!"
"Mr. Wu is polite. Zhao Zejun personally made a cup of tea, put it in front of Mr. Wu, and said: "I have admired the starting point Chinese network for a long time, and I won't hide it from you, the layout of my Zeyue website is still greatly inspired by the starting point." ”
"Haha, Mr. Zhao, you are a real expert. Zeyue's website is blue, but it is already better than blue. Mr. Wu nodded.
"Whether it's green or blue, red lotus, white lotus root, green lotus leaf, the three religions are originally one family. Zhao Zejun smiled faintly: "As long as the industry is good, we, the practitioners, will all rise with the tide." ”
Hearing Zhao Zejun say this, Mr. Wu was slightly surprised.
All along, Ze Yue gave him the impression of being fierce and cunning.
How to say it, it is like a hungry wolf, mercilessly biting all its prey, even swallowing the bones of the belt, but not recklessly.
Obviously, Ze Yue's style is the style of the head of Ze Yue who has never met in front of him.
But Zhao Zejun's words made Mr. Wu couldn't help but be impressed, this young entrepreneur was not fascinated by the achievements in a short period of time, and the focus was not even on making money, but on the entire industry.
Just his pattern is a lot higher than Kong Decheng, no wonder Huanjian is in front of Zeyue, like a strong man full of loopholes, seemingly powerful, but actually vulnerable.
There are both thunderbolt means and the pattern of the world, in an industry, it is a blessing for the entire industry to have such a person, but it is undoubtedly a nightmare for the industry.
Zhao Zejun coughed, interrupting the other party's thoughts, "I don't know if Mr. Wu is here this time?"
Mr. Wu glanced at Zhao Zejun deeply, the initial idea had some imperceptible changes, it was too hasty to show the hole cards directly, he had to find out, what did the young wolf in front of him want?
Does he want a prairie with endless prey, or does he want to devour the other hunters who are on the prairie and he is robbing him of prey?
He groaned slightly and said, "Mr. Zhao, you and I are the vanguard in the industry, and I have been confused recently, and I want to hear your opinions." ”
"Say, let's discuss it together. ”
"From the real name of 'online novel' to today, online fiction has become a kind of network economy, it has been three or four years, these years, I have been thinking, how can this cause survive and grow?"
Zhao Zejun's eyes lowered slightly, looking at the teacup in his hand, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and he laughed a little playfully.
"At present, the online novel industry is a hot time, and all parties on the stage have appeared on the stage, singing and playing, so lively. How could Mr. Wu still have such worries?"
Seeing Zhao Zejun's playful expression, Mr. Wu smiled: "Mr. Zhao, what you said doesn't seem to be sincere." ”
"Mr. Wu, what do you think?" Zhao Zejun asked rhetorically. If you want to trap me, you'll have to give me something dry first.
Mr. Wu sighed and put down the teacup, "To be honest, I think the current prosperity is purely a bubble hyped up by our three websites, which is not conducive to the long-term development of the online novel industry at all." ”
Zhao Zejun asked knowingly: "Why do you say it's a bubble? You see, there is more traffic, more writers and readers, and the valuation of the website is also higher." ”
"Mr. Zhao, do you really think that the high valuation of the website means that the online novel industry is booming?"
Mr. Wu smiled and said, "Three years ago, what did online novels rely on to survive? I don't mean authors, I mean us practitioners and operators. ”
Zhao Zejun nodded, indicating that he understood what he meant.
Mr. Wu continued: "At that time, there were only two ways to publish a few books occasionally, and to sell websites with traffic, to put it bluntly, doing this business to make money is mainly hobbies. And after three or four years of development, the whole industry has not changed at all, and it is still the same. Oh, and there's your first-of-its-kind tipping mode. ”
"Reward, it's just an embellishment for the icing on the cake. Zhao Zejun waved his hand.
"Not bad. An industry seems to be booming, but it can't find a profit point that is enough to support the industry, so it can only rely on the influx of capital. When capital pours in, it is found that the industry is not profitable at all, and then it is quickly withdrawn, which is of course a bubble. In the long run, it will completely ruin the online novel industry and the entrepreneurs in this industry. ”
Zhao Zejun's eyes lit up, when it came to this, the prophet of his previous life and his grasp of the other party's mentality when talking to people, he had already roughly guessed the real topic that the other party was going to talk about this time.
"Okay! Mr. Wu, in a word!"
Zhao Zejun's attitude suddenly changed one hundred and eighty degrees, "Mr. Wu, if you are honest, I won't hide it." I also have this kind of worry, you and me, plus Huanjian, the three of us are killing and killing, and divide our money equally among the online novel writers, the vitality of the industry comes completely from the pockets of our entrepreneurs, and when the three of us are deflated and vomit blood, if the online novels can't find a new growth point, the industry may be exhausted. ”
Mr. Wu slapped his thigh: "It's not fake at all!"
"Having said that, I provoked this money-burning war. Zhao Zejun said with a smile.
"The arrow is on the bow, I have to do it, I understand! If Zeyue didn't burn money, he wouldn't have been able to grab the market so quickly in our starting point and Huanjian hands. The two of us were also forced by you Mr. Zhao, so we had to fight. ”
Mr. Wu waved his hand with a literati temperament: "If you don't want it, you have no choice but to listen! I hope that we can find a win-win way." ”
Zhao Zejun nodded, thinking in his heart, a win-win situation is a must, but if it weren't for Zeyue's early burning of money, burning the two of you to death, and burning to nearly one-third of the online novel market, whether it is the starting point or Huanjian, it is impossible to come to Zeyue to 'win-win' together.
"Mr. Zhao, do you think that in the current environment of rampant piracy, is it feasible to charge for online novels? Mr. Wu did not directly propose to join forces this time, but asked with a tentative attitude.
The fee for online novels has been mentioned for a long time, and no one has thought of it today. Mr. Wu said this, even if Zhao Zejun disagreed, he would not expose the strategic intention of the starting point.
However, when it comes to this, Zhao Zejun has fully understood the real purpose of Mr. Wu's visit this time.
If you don't come to me, I'll go to you.
The time has come to implement a fee system for online novels, strictly speaking, it is urgent and cannot be delayed. But the top three stand side by side, if only Zeyue charges a fee, it is indeed a big risk.
Next, if the views of the two sides can collide and reach an agreement, the starting point will soon become Zeyue's allies. On the contrary, the three-strong battle will continue to be fought endlessly.
Zhao Zejun's eyes drooped slightly, and he said lightly: "Mr. Wu, there are pros and cons to the online novel fee system, but in my opinion, it is not like the rumors that it will destroy the foundation, on the contrary, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages." ”
"I have long heard that Zhao is always the godfather of the novel industry, and I would like to hear about it in detail. ”
