Chapter 159: Smooth sailing

Gu Cheng lived in the United States for more than half a month, and took care of some additional business details of YY.com. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 infoAs for domestic affairs, it basically depends on remote control.

It was not until the end of July that he flew back to China.

After all, Li Ying was just taken down, and the adultery was hot, and it was too cruel to drop it after a breakup.

Li Ying is also a well-cooked body, but no one has developed it before, and she doesn't feel it. Now that I know the taste of the marrow, I know that it is so ecstatic, and I am entangled with Gu Cheng every day, and even the business is temporarily abandoned, and I indulge in life for a while.

The two also went to Miami, chartered a private sunny beach, changed their tricks on the beach like lobsters, and then slept until they woke up naturally.

In Li Ying's love words that she murmured to Gu Cheng afterwards: "I went to MIT to study at the age of 17, and it has been 8 years, and I haven't had a few days to put down my business and sleep well." After following you for a month, I've really fallen home. ”

"Things can't be done, life is so long, climb fast and climb slowly, it's not that important. Every time, Gu Cheng comforted each other like this.

When it was over, Li Ying followed Gu Cheng to fly back to San Francisco from Miami. Then she got off the plane in San Francisco, said goodbye to Gu Cheng, and watched Gu Cheng continue the voyage and fly back to the other side of the ocean.

……

When he returned to China, Gu Cheng found that he had been in the United States for a month and a half, and the progress of various businesses was really good.

Dongyi's "Girls' Generation" talent show has been screened on S-BS TV for a month, and the NICONICO video network has been on the shelves for a week behind the TV station, and it has also attracted a lot of fans, and the number of followers of this column is more than 8 million - considering that Dongyi has only a population of 50 million, and not all netizens are interested in this kind of girl variety show, so this achievement is already very exaggerated.

Later data analysis also proved that among the more than 8 million viewers, nearly 1 million were Fusang people watching, and 2 million were Chinese people watching, and there were only more than 5 million real Dongyi people. As a multinational video website, NICONICO's advantages of resources not being limited by the viewing range of TV stations are becoming more and more obvious, and they are becoming more and more envied by major TV media.

Zheng Xiuyan, Lin Yuna, Kwon Yoo-ri, and the group of girls really live up to expectations, are very popular, and are currently the best combination in the show. They have also opened their personal space on Renren as promised, and they work hard to show off their news every day. Other artists of S-M Company and trainees who are allowed to disclose information are also able to post it vigorously, raising Renren's attention in Dongyi to a new level.

At the same time, because the subsidiary that cooperated with K-BANK and held an online payment license was approved, Alipay has now begun to take root in Dongyi, and nearly 300,000 S-M company artists have bound their hardcore illegitimate meals to online banking, and use Alipay to reward and vote for their favorite stars.

(Note: The software set up in the book can be used generally, but the operations and related data should be managed by a local company.) The specific relevant laws will not be repeated, let's refer to Ma Feng's Alipay internationalization path. In the future, I will mention the problem of other countries in the internationalization of Alipay, because the financial regulations of each country are different, and some countries stipulate that Alipay can only be used by 'Huaxia people and Huaxia commercial bank cardholders in the country', and cannot be used by domestic bank card holders.

For the sake of reading experience, they are simplified and processed into the method of "establishing a joint venture company with a local commercial bank in China" to avoid legal issues, and it is not detailed, otherwise it can be tens of thousands of words. Don't read this part of the content as a business textbook)

But don't underestimate the 300,000 people in this district, although proportionally speaking, it is only 0.5% of Dongyi citizens and 1% of Dongyi netizens. But these people are a seed, and once more payment scenarios are formed in society, Alipay's internationalization path will inevitably take a key step.

In Fuso, Yasushi Akimoto's AKB48 program was just released in early August, and it has only been warmed up for two or three days, and there is no social repercussion for the time being. However, because of the popularity of neighboring countries, the major record companies are very optimistic about the attention and expectations of this project, and the promotional resources are also very sufficient, which invisibly helped the NICONICO website to do a wave of publicity. As for the opening of Alipay's overseas version of voting, there are only 10,000 or 20,000 at present, which is not a climate.

Because the variety shows of Dongyi and Fusang can be seen on NICONICO, and they can get good special channel recommendations, so domestic netizens who have developed the habit of watching online videos and like Girls' Generation and Super Girl will most likely go to take a look at the copycat versions of neighboring countries by the way, confirm each other and even find a little cultural superiority.

The so-called sense of cultural superiority is "it turns out that even Dongyi and Fusang people will copy our variety shows in China, not only our Huaxia cottages Dongyi and Fusang" and other national emotions.

Although it began in July, the postponement incident caused by internal struggles and arrests on Wuyue Satellite TV has been suppressed. Since the rematch, Wu Yue Satellite TV has resumed the normal "Girls' Generation" (domestic version) TV broadcast, and only released the online version of the screening rights to NICONICO with a delay of two weeks, but the on-demand volume of NICONICO is still not affected.

And because you can review and replay it without limits, you don't have to rush the program time, and you can watch it when you are free. The number of users of "Girls' Generation" in first- and second-tier cities with high network speed infrastructure has increased significantly, and the gap with Mango TV's "Super Girl" has been further widened.

It is said that Director Ouyang and the person in charge of Mango Entertainment Channel discussed every day, and in mid-July, they couldn't hold back, so they sent someone to discuss with Ma Teng: When will Tengyun make a Tengyun video?

Although Tengyun Company claims to be a copycat, but the online video thing, in 05 years, it was too much money, after all, today's broadband tariffs are too expensive compared to later generations - even if Tengyun is awesome later, make enough money in the game industry, and subsidize the video industry with cash cows, it will have to start planning "Tengyun Video" in 2010.

Nowadays, Tengyun has no users, but it has not had time to convert several popular money-making online games.

The crossfire poisoned milk powder Xuan Dance Troupe, which is a big money-absorber in later generations, is either still preparing or has no shadow at all.

The money raised by last year's IPO was almost burned in head-on competition with Gu Chenggang. Especially when Tenpay was launched, in order to resist YY and Alipay, Tengyun had to engage in a red envelope rain war, and the money burned was calculated according to 100 million.

Therefore, for the inquiry of Mango Terrace, Tengyun can only always prevaricate with words such as "I am researching, the time is not yet ripe, but I will consider launching it".

Director Ouyang is not stupid, so he naturally knows that it is useless to count on Tengyun in this regard.

He didn't fall into the trap, but just said hello to Tengyun: as the copyright holder of the program, Mango TV will independently find online broadcast partners.

As long as Ma Teng doesn't interfere.

Ma Teng was angry at first, because Tengyun was an important sponsor of Super Girl. However, after studying the terms, I found that the agreement in this regard was completely blank when the original cooperation was made, and there was no legal problem for Mango TV to do so.

So the two sides could only negotiate, signed a supplementary clause, and reaped some benefits for Tengyun, and let Mango Terrace mess around.

The first potential collaborator that Mango TV is looking for,Tudou.com, which just built a website in the second half of this year-historically,05The earliest mainstream video website in China is Tudou.com,Youku didn't start until 06 years。

And NICONICO, although powerful, is a competitor's website after all. If Mango Station doesn't even have a spare tire, go directly to the door and talk to NICONICO, maybe you will be humiliated.

Mango Channel's cooperation conditions for Tudou are very generous: the resources of the second season of Super Girl are licensed to Tudou for broadcast at an almost free price, and only tens of thousands of copyright fees are symbolically charged to Tudou.

The reason why it has to collect money symbolically is nothing more than because Mango TV is a state-owned media after all, and it is not easy to account for free, and it is easy to fall into the handle of being attacked by political enemies in the future.

However, even so, it can't satisfy the appetite of Tudou - Tudou still wants exclusivity, that is, Mango TV promises that from now on, the "Super Girl" program will only be licensed to a video website on Tudou, and will not be licensed to others.

The lion even opened his mouth and demanded that the exclusive online broadcast rights be granted for three years at one time - that is, the program for next year and the year after will also be booked.

The business negotiators on Mango Terrace were so angry that they said that this was too special to pit their teammates: at present, in the summer of 2005, there are indeed only two video websites in China, NICONICO and Tudou. However, everyone knows that the Internet is a rapidly developing industry, and the level of domestic network infrastructure, the average network speed of Internet users will increase rapidly, and the bandwidth fee will also decrease.

In 06 and 07, domestic video websites have not sprung up like mushrooms after a rain?

If it is given away for nothing at one time, it will have to be given for three years, and the person in charge who signed the contract will have to be attacked and sent to prison by a competitor, and he will be asked for the crime of collecting black money and then "selling state-owned assets at a low price."

This kind of condition is naturally impossible to negotiate, especially after experiencing the current network speed and playback effect of Tudou.com, Mango TV doesn't understand the confidence of the person in charge of Tudou.com: the playback of this website is more serious than that of NICONICO, and the function of dragging the progress bar to see which one is also much more rigid.

In the end, Mango TV had to find NICONICO.com and negotiate with the other party to "pay to authorize you to broadcast 'Super Girl' on the web", trying to get some money back.

However, NICONICO ignored it and rejected it directly, saying that he didn't want to buy it, and he didn't want to give it away for free.

Mango Station wanted to inquire about the reason, but the representative of Gu Cheng's side replied "no reason".

Gu Cheng has a backbone.

To do business, it is important to take a ride to promote video sites.

But it's more important to stand up for your subordinates.

Although Mango Station is not the party that specifically does it, nor is it the party that invests it, it only provides some network channels, but after all, they assisted Tengyun to buy Director Song and get Liu Hui in.

If Gu Cheng cooperated with Mango Terrace, wouldn't it make his subordinates feel cold.
