Chapter 83: His Immortal Grass, My Shoes
The path chosen by Gu Mojie is destined to be difficult. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It can even be asserted that if it weren't for the fact that he has full accumulation in the field of artificial intelligence and is supported by the wealth and status of the richest man in Asia, any other person who does this will definitely not be able to do the little white stream of twist vine.
The core disagreement between the two men is the belief that human ego and preferences should be respected. The latter thinks that instead of paying a lot of money to respect the self of the unenlightened people, it is better to wear a ring through the little white nose like a cow to pull them.
Cang Liao knows etiquette, and knows honor and disgrace when he has enough food and clothing.
In the 2010s, there were still 90 million people living in extreme poverty below the subsistence line in China. There are also hundreds of millions of post-60s and former people who went hungry when they were children. The bad effects of hunger and cold have penetrated deep into their souls, and they have been imprinted since childhood when the three views were formed.
The vast majority of such people do not understand "paying for content" or even "paying for their own spiritual independence".
They don't care about individuality, square dancing is enough, it's enough to have free mobile chess and card games, and occasionally a truck loaded with produce overturns in a highway crash, and they'll go to loot - even though they're not hungry, and they're not too poor to eat. They are just the three views formed since childhood, which have been imprinted by hunger and cold.
It is entirely conceivable that only those who have never starved a day of poverty since birth will have a higher probability of becoming people who are truly willing to pay for the pursuit of spiritual independence and freedom of thought.
Twist Vine understands the national situation very well, so he only earns what he can make at the moment.
But Gu Mojie can't.
He is only 26 years old, and his future is still very long, even if it takes 10 years for this business to fully see the superiority compared to the Fuji Xun model, so what!
Ten years later, perhaps the generation that has not been hungry since childhood has occupied the mainstream of society's consumption power? Maybe the individualist has taken over? Just like the Americans today, everything has to change to seek distraction and reflect one's true self.
At that time, he Gu Mojie will only be 36 years old!
Erma Lao Li, I can't wait for the business after so long, they are all forty or fifty years old.
Betting on the future in 10 years, if there is no bet, there is no qualitative leap in the result, and they will have no chance in this life.
Gu Mojie is not afraid, being young is an opportunity. Even if the Hatsune Group is frustrated, as long as he has his current deeds, connections, influence, and tens of billions of dollars in funds, he can't fight anything.
……
After a deep conversation with Lu Wenjun that night, his wife finally stood behind him completely, no longer doubted, gave him silent support, and played a good role as a virtuous helper.
As Lu Wenjun gradually returned to work in the company, he slowly continued to contact the work of the user experience department, although he could not return to the position of director because of the serious disconnection, at least he shared a lot of pressure and instability from below for Gu Mojie.
September passed in a blink of an eye, and after returning from the eleventh long holiday, there were a few more news in the circle.
It seems that it is found that Hatsune Entertainment's layout has been relatively slow and cautious since the beginning of this year, and there has been no sign of making efforts in the field of online literature, so Fuji Xun decided to use the existing resources and first-mover advantages to further make great strides in this field.
They bought out at various high premiums and poached groups of big gods from a certain point. Challenge the Internet entertainment giant and Chen Tianqiao's Shengda, which has now shown a declining trend.
Ma Huateng's poaching impact unsurprisingly swept the traffic scale of Shengda's literary and online game content platforms into pieces, and the valuation of companies in related industries fell steadily. Then, Ma Huateng extended a takeover offer, trying to give Chen Tianqiao 5 billion yuan to buy out a certain station of his. As for a certain point of the game, a higher price can be given.
In fact, Ma Huateng considered buying it directly at a higher position at the beginning, but at that time, Chen Tianqiao thought very highly of himself and did not have the other party.
Chen Tianqiao, an outdated man, has actually stopped running these industries himself, and he has been disheartened and busy making small and beautiful investments in the past few years.
Although the twist vine has declined by two or three percent from its peak, it is still more than ten times greater than Chen Tianqiao's net worth, and Chen Tianqiao naturally can't resist it.
Ahri has not yet entered the idea of the content industry, and Ahri in this time and space has not even obtained UC resources, and there is no particularly powerful channel for piracy, so it is naturally completely insulated from the field of Internet entertainment industry.
Boss Li, who is said to be in the field of Internet paid entertainment, is said to have an interest in acquisition, but he has built a horizontal website a few years ago, and the bid is naturally conservative.
Chen Tianqiao took a look at the domestic Internet bigwigs and found that it was more reliable to ask Gu Mojie to raise the price. After all, both of them are shareholders of Jiangnan Club, and there is still a bit of incense.
Then, during the eleventh long holiday, Chen Tianqiao asked Gu Mojie to have afternoon tea at the Jiangnan Club, and told Gu Mojie about the idea of having to sell websites.
When he came to the door, Chen Tianqiao was still very confident. After all, in his eyes, Gu Mojie and Ma Huateng's grievances have been very deep, and at this time, when doing business and talking about acquisitions, it is no longer just to see if you can make money after buying, but to see if you can stop your enemies from expanding and disgusting your opponents after buying.
Ma Huateng has reached 5 billion yuan, Chen Tianqiao thought to himself that if he told Gu Mojie about this price, the other party would definitely be able to give at least a few percent higher price.
However, the truth seems to have greatly exceeded Chen Tianqiao's expectations.
……
Jiangnan Club, in the small building owned by Shengda Group, in addition to the maids downstairs, there are only Gu Mojie and Chen Tianqiao in the living room upstairs.
I heard that after the complete transfer of power in March next year, an eight-x regulation will be introduced, and the clubs of these top rich people on the shore of West Lake will be rectified. At that time, it will not be possible to receive guests in the public gate, and only merchants can entertain themselves.
Chen Tianqiao was full of confidence and asked Gu Mojie to chat and drink tea, but without saying a few words, Gu Mojie was very honestly poured a basin of cold water.
"I thought about extending the coverage of Hatsune Entertainment to online literature and other upstream IPs in the future, but now Hatsune is not fully prepared and the time is not ripe."
Chen Tianqiao's first reaction was disbelief: You kid, who are you deceiving in order to lower the price?
But on the surface, he still couldn't tear his face, so he could only persuade in a suppressed tone: "What is there to prepare for this kind of thing?" The earlier you intervene, the better the first-mover advantage. Ma Huateng has been building a creation for more than half a year, and the big gods have poached more than a dozen, and the small and medium-sized gods have more than 100. Unless you're not going to get into the industry in the future, what better way to do that than to buy something directly from me? ”
Chen Tianqiao said as he spoke, and did not forget to show off his company's value and operating data to show that his quotation and the valuation given to him by Ma Huateng were still very reasonable:
"Ma Huateng is now offering me 5 billion, RMB, if I don't see it at the beginning of the year. On my website, according to the original trend, there are at least 300,000 basically genuine paid iron fan readers, and 1.5 million first-time V readers who have accumulated consumption of more than 100 yuan.
The annual paid reading revenue is more than 4 billion, not counting advertising, and the net profit is three or four billion a year. If it weren't for Ma Huateng's appearance being so ugly, digging too many little gods in me, losing a quarter of the data this year, and the trend is not very stopping, I wouldn't have looked at the acquisition offer of 5 billion at all. ”
Gu Mojie listened to Chen Tianqiao's chatter, and did not mean to refute it head-on. He could fully understand the resentment in the heart of an outrageous person.
"Brother Chen, I believe everything you say. But business is not based on this algorithm - in 04, if you sold Shengda Entertainment at its peak, how much do you think you can sell? After two years, why is it not as good as the beginning? Because your Legends game is out of gas.
It is normal for things in the entertainment industry to fluctuate in market value, and it all depends on whether the products you operate are too good and whether you continue to have a fist. Ninety percent of Zhu Jun, after I took away "World of Warcraft" in 07, what happened? In the second year, the company's revenue fell by 93% year-on-year, Zhu Jun didn't struggle, it wasn't that he didn't get new online games to fill the hole, but the new generation of consumers didn't sell it. ”
Chen Tianqiao pinched his teeth and was unhappy: "Just say what you want to say, Shengda's game may be outdated, and the station at a certain point is definitely not outdated." ”
"Of course, it's not outdated, but it's not in line with the future layout and operation strategy of our Hatsune system - it's not that I said, there are no high-quality books in your circle at the moment. The best sellers are all made by the mean.
Of course, no one is to blame for this, after all, everyone has the desire for profit, not to mention that the auxiliary technology of literary creation back then was not mature. However, after Hatsune enters the scene, many technical means that have never been heard of in the literary world will appear. When the time comes, the impact on vested interests will be very large.
Don't I know what you're worth? I know, but I'm too embarrassed to ask you to buy it. Because after I buy it, it will definitely be drastically restructured, the earth will be shaken, and the routines of vested interests will be divided - just like the production of Dior's magenta lipstick will be reduced, but in the end, the total sales of the Dior brand will increase.
I'm going to attract millions of new users to this market who don't currently pay to read online articles. The cost is that the people who used to occupy the dominant value form in this market will not be able to continue to make loud noises - have you ever thought about this, if I enter the market and buy a certain point, it will not be fully useful, because many existing interests will be consumed in the drastic reforms. ”
Chen Tianqiao is an old-school Internet person, and it is very difficult for him to understand the new ideas that Gu Mojie said.
"If you're willing to sell it to Ma Huateng for 5 billion, I don't mind. But I want you to bargain with him a little more and burn him as much money as you can. In the future, when I knock down the whole horse flower vine, the results will be a little greater.
If you are inclined to sell me the incense of the Jiangnan Society, then I can only say that I will not be able to pay more than Ma Huateng's 5 billion yuan - because the first thing I get my hands on is to use a scalpel. ”
"I ...... I'll spend a few days to understand the number of ways you said that artificial intelligence and content push are combined, and then I will give you an answer. ”
With a business of 5 billion yuan, if Chen Tianqiao listens to Gu Mojie's words and bows his head, it will be a matter of IQ. He knew that what Gu Mojie said didn't seem to be fake, but it was better to examine the specific model.
