Chapter 449: Cocooning Yourself
Although he is a mess in dealing with feelings, but in the past two years, Lin Yang has not achieved nothing, through his own and team's efforts, as well as Ali's support and mutual use, he finally succeeded in pushing Sunshine Weibo to the vision of domestic netizens. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Creating and promoting Sunshine Weibo is probably the most successful thing he has ever done in his two lifetimes combined.
As soon as he went to the headquarters of Ali in Hangzhou to submit an application for financing, Lin Yang packed his bags and prepared to return to Shanghai.
Perhaps, his original idea was to return to Guanggu Provincial Capital to see Liu Limin, or to go back to Meicheng City to see Zhan Shuzhi, but his current mentality, unconsciously, has changed a little.
In recent years, he has been feeling a sense of insecurity, the reason for which he did not know before, but now he suddenly found that this insecurity comes from his "rootlessness".
The so-called rootlessness, in layman's terms, is the inner "insecurity" caused by "no originality", which is a very hypocritical word anyway.
Because at the beginning, whether Lin Yang wrote "The Almighty Family", or founded Sunshine Weibo, or copied songs and sold songs, basically, everything he did successfully in his life was not original by himself, and almost all of them were the fruits of his pirated copycat others' labor.
This has also caused Lin Yang to rely too much on copycats and piracy for a long time, and has no original originality at all, and naturally lacks some self-stability and satisfaction from the heart.
has done too many of these "bad things" of stealing the fruits of other people's labor, and Lin Yang has always wanted to explore a way to succeed by himself.
In this life, Lin Yang made his debut on the starting point Chinese network by writing online novels, for the starting point Chinese network, Lin Yang is not only grateful to this platform, but also envious of the owner of this platform, and wants to have such an online literature platform.
Nowadays, Lin Yang can also be regarded as an Internet upstart, although there is still a big gap between him and Ma Huateng and Ma Yun Internet tycoons, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to surpass it in a few lifetimes, but in general, Lin Yang's success in founding "Sunshine Weibo" has also gained a certain degree of affirmation in the industry.
Therefore, Lin Yang went to Hangzhou this time, mainly to apply to Alibaba for a fund on "creating a domestic literary reading and writing platform", that is, to create a Chinese network original literature portal similar to the starting point, anyway, the plan prepared in advance was submitted, but whether it can be passed is still unknown.
The reason why he chose to create a literary portal is that Lin Yang also considered many aspects, because, from around 2004, Shanda acquired the starting point, improved the online novel charging system, and began to mature commercial operation, so that online novels have entered a period of full-speed development.
During that time, most of the novels were in the eyes of the hardcore booklovers, the language was white, the plot was old-fashioned, straightforward, and the articles were pale and weak, that is, Xiaobaiwen was also, which led to a collective book shortage of many old bookworms.
As a result, the starting point has become the uncrowned king of the novel website, and all other reading websites on the Internet have formed a situation in which they jointly fight against the starting point.
Since 2007, it is also because of the economic leap and the rapid development of the Internet that the number of Chinese netizens has skyrocketed, and online novels have become huge.
Such as Yanyu Jiangnan's "Blasphemy", the greasy "Vermilion Bird", Yan Leisheng's "Tianxingjian", Blood Coral's "Demon Thief", and the Red Cossack's "Empty Battle", and even "Zhu Xian" began to be serialized during this time.
Of course, there is one person who has to mention, that is, the little white sect leader, the three young people of the Tang family.
Looking at the novels he wrote, it is estimated that many writers of online articles on the street have that hatred in their hearts.
However, at this time, most netizens have just come into contact with online novels, and they are still in the stage of being a novice, so he became popular.
That is, in 2007, Lin Yang suddenly found that Yanyu Jiangnan and Yuntian jumped to the 17K literature website, and the starting point was dominant, and they began to be domineering and exposed, promulgating many unfair contract terms, causing many heavyweight writers to flee.
To be honest, the clouds and the sky are not enough to see at all, at present, it is Yanyu Jiangnan who supports half of the sky of 17K, and 17K also relies on Yanyu Jiangnan to play with the starting point.
Facts have also proved that after Yanyu Jiangnan arrived at 17K, he issued two books, "Dust Margin" and "Demon Hunting Notes", although they are both high-quality books, but 17k is difficult to support alone, and it is difficult for him to rely on Yanyu Jiangnan on his own. to change the starting point of the grand occasion.
And now, longitudinal. Heng Chinese Network has not yet been born, Baidu Literature has not yet been developed, and the starting point Chinese Network itself has caused many great god authors to leave the starting point because of the overlord contract, and Lin Yang believes that this is a once-in-a-lifetime good opportunity.
If Ali can seize this opportunity, perhaps, they can still compete with the starting point Chinese network to form a hegemonic situation, and even have a chance to surpass the starting point Chinese network.
In the afternoon, Sunshine Weibo.
Lin Yang sat in his office, facing the computer, browsing the major literary websites on the Internet, wondering whether Ali was willing to agree to financing.
"Tuk Tuk!"
There was a knock at the door.
"Come in." Lin Yang said, sitting up straight.
"Boss......" Wang Yunfei looked at Lin Yang with a melancholy expression.
"Huh? Sit down and say. ”
"Ali's side doesn't agree with our plan." Wang Yunfei said as he sat down.
Hearing this, Lin Yang took out a cigarette very rarely.
took out a cigarette and handed it to Wang Yunfei, who leaned over and took it.
Pinching the cigarette in his hand, Lin Yang asked Wang Yunfei: "What did the person in charge of Ali say about it?" ”
Wang Yunfei sighed and said: "He said that they Ali are engaged in Internet finance and business, unlike Tencent and Baidu, which can rarely promote each other with literature and form a closed-loop business, which can be described as rootless duckweed, there is no foundation at all, and they really don't care about the interests of online literature, and at present, the reading pattern of the starting point Chinese the Internet is difficult to break, even if Ali spends a lot of money into it, it may not be able to make market ......."
When he said this, Wang Yunfei glanced at Lin Yang inadvertently.
Seeing that Wang Yunfei noticed his eyes, Lin Yang stood up and said to Wang Yunfei: "Ali is not wrong to think so, Ali's company's temperament. It's really a little inconsistent with the online article. ”
While talking, when Lin Yang walked to Wang Yunfei's side, Wang Yunfei said: "Ali is not willing to raise funds, do you want to talk to other investors?" ”
Wang Yunfei stood up and talked to Lin Yang, who hurriedly reached out and pressed him back to the sofa.
"It's okay, you go on."
Wang Yunfei did this to show his respect for his boss.
Before Wang Yunfei entered the door just now, in addition to discussing the matter of the online literature website with Lin Yang, there was also his cousin, who had just graduated from college, wanted to work on Sunshine Weibo through his own connections.
However, this time is different from the past, Sunshine Weibo is on the right track, a college student who has just graduated from an ordinary school, if he doesn't have a little real ability, Lin Yang really doesn't care about it.
Wang Yunfei has his difficulties and concerns.
First of all, Lin Yang's management method is very simple and direct, and he is basically a hands-off shopkeeper in ordinary affairs, but he has a very tight grasp of development planning, personnel, and financial power.
After founding Sunshine Weibo for such a long time, only Lin Yang, the most grassroots staff, gave power to Wang Yunfei, and other positions had to be checked by him personally before he was allowed to enter the door.
Secondly, even if Wang Yunfei has the right to recruit people, Lin Yang has to personally review it before agreeing.
He is Lin Yang's senior brother and Lin Yang's senior, and this identity is not good.
Lin Yang was a student at school, and he was the boss when he entered the Sunshine Weibo Company, and now here, he is full-fledged, and it is a question whether he wants to recognize Wang Yunfei as a senior, and Wang Yunfei is not sure what the relationship between Lin Yang and himself is.
Moreover, there is a saying called "a companion is like a tiger", Wang Yunfei is a senior, if he secretly recruits his cousin without Lin Yang's consent, Lin Yang doesn't know it's okay, if Lin Yang knows, wouldn't he be cocooned and self-bound?
