But after Lu Qiang hung up the phone, his face was full of joy, and the depression that he had just been scolded by someone was swept away.

It turned out that the call was not from the Uterbi video website, but another high-definition video podcast website in the United States called Vimo.

Unlike most similar video-sharing sites, Vimo allows you to upload 1280*700 HD videos, and it will be automatically transcoded to HD videos after uploading, which really meets the HD video standard.

Of course, in addition to netizens uploading selfie videos, this video site will also buy some variety shows or TV movies to play, it is a comprehensive video site, but its strength is too far behind that of Uterbi.

What Lu Qiang didn't expect was that as soon as he rejected the Uterbi website, the Vimo website called and said that he wanted to buy the live broadcast rights of the Voice of America, and also agreed to the high price of 12 million US dollars proposed by Lu Qiang.

Yes, not $10 million, but $12 million.

$10 million is the lowest price given by Lu Li, and Lu Qiang's rejection of Uterbi did not mean to play tricks on the other party before. Seeing that Uterbi had already started scolding directly after hearing the price of 10 million US dollars, Lu Qiang intuitively thought that this Vimo website would not buy it, so he simply deliberately raised it by 2 million US dollars, but he didn't expect the other party to just hesitate for a moment and agree.

How can this not make Lu Qiang happy?

12 million US dollars plus the title fee of 5 million US dollars for Cola, that is 17 million US dollars, which is more than 100 million yuan when converted into RMB.

It is true that a lot of investment has been invested in the preparation of the Voice of America, especially the appearance fees of the four star mentors and the money for the purchase of sound equipment. But it hasn't reached the point of 100 million, so now just one naming fee and online live broadcast rights have begun to make a profit.

This hasn't sold commercials yet, and I thought that the ratings of this show would increase again after the second episode. The advertising fee must also be rising, and Lu Qiang seems to have seen countless dollars waving to him.

Lu couldn't wait to tell Lu Li the good news, but he heard Tong Kai say that Lu Li had gone out, so he had to give up and wait for Lu Li to come back.

Not far from the headquarters of the Uterbi website, this is the office building of the Vimo website.

"Mike. Are you sure it's worth spending $12 million for the live streaming rights to this show? In the general manager's office, Simpson asked worriedly, looking at the young man in front of him.

Mike smiled confidently when he heard Simpson's words: "Boss, please trust me." Mike never makes a move without certainty, and over the years, how many times has the show or TV series I suggested buying have been lost? ”

Simpson is a middle-aged man in his forties, and he still frowned when he heard Mike's words: "But the price is too high this time." I think we're getting a little impulsive. ”

Mike was upset that Simpson held back. But it was his own boss, and he continued: "Boss, you have to see the potential of this show, just now you also saw the high rating of Utebi, we have to start early, otherwise we will be preempted by others." And I was watching the show last night, and it was really exciting, and I'm sure the ratings of this show will get higher and higher. ”

See what else Simpson has to say. Mike continued, "And, even if you don't believe me. Still not believing in Lawrence? Koukou-Cola named the show before it aired, which was Lawrence's choice. ”

When Simpson heard this, he finally loosened his frowning brow, Lawrence's name is known to him, and he is a winning general like Mike, and his vision is very unique.

Simpson was about to agree with Mike's opinion, but immediately his face became ugly: "Mike, this Voice of America's rating in Uterbi is declining rapidly, and now it has dropped to 5 points!" ”

Mike's face also changed when he heard this, and he quickly came to Simpson's computer, and found that there were many more people who rated the Voice of America, and the score dropped to 5 points in less than a few minutes.

No, I watched the whole show last night, except for being a little dull at the beginning, the back is very exciting, and I shouldn't get such a low score. With doubts in mind, Mike scrolled down the page and looked at the comments.

After just reading two or three comments, Mike regained his smile.

"Boss, don't worry, this should be the hands and feet of Utebi, I am very familiar with many vests in the following comments, and they are professional water army."

Simpson was a little incredulous: "Why would Uterbi do this?" ”

"Huh." Mike smiled mockingly: "Elvis guy, I forgot what my surname was after the website became bigger, this time he must have wanted to buy the live broadcast rights of the Voice of America at a low price, but the other party refused, so he was angry and found a water army to lower the rating of the Voice of America, and let me find evidence." ”

I have to say that Mike is very capable, and he can guess eight or nine without relying on a few vests.

Mike familiarly logged on to a previous forum website, and sure enough, he found a post in it that hired a water army to pull down the Voice of America, and the price was not low.

Of course, Elvis will definitely not post such a post as his own deity, but a new account to post the news.

But that's enough to prove that the Voice of America's rating has become so low because someone is playing tricks.

After reading this post, Simpson also believed Mike's speculation and made up his mind: "Okay, tomorrow you will go to Dong'an City to sign a contract with FM TV on behalf of me, and we will start live streaming in the second episode." I'm not used to Elvis's old bastard, and I don't like him to do this. ”

Mike smiled when he heard this.

Lu Li didn't return to the TV station until near night, and happened to meet Tong Kai.

"Boss, you're back." Tong Kai saw Lu Li and greeted.

Lu Li nodded: "Yes." ”

"Look boss, you're very tired like this, aren't you?" Tong Kai looked at Lu Li's tired face, and his smile began to become obscene.

Lu Li is indeed very tired, but I don't know why Tong Kai's smile is so obscene: "It's very tired, what's wrong?" ”

"It's okay, boss, you have to pay attention to your body and pay attention to safety." After speaking, Tong Kai didn't wait for Lu Li to ask again, and walked away quickly.

"Does he know what he's doing?" Lu Li was a little strange when he heard this, he hadn't told anyone about it.

However, Lu Li didn't think much about it, he was sweating and feeling uncomfortable, so he went back to his residence and took a shower. After taking a shower, Lu Qiang rushed over.

"Brother Qiang, it's so late, what's the matter?" Lu Li asked as he turned on the computer in his room.

Lu Qiang found a place to sit down and said with a smile: "The voice of America's online live broadcast rights have been sold, 12 million US dollars." ”

"Oh?" Lu Li was a little surprised when he heard this, but he didn't expect that someone really had the courage to buy the live broadcast rights of the Voice of America at this time. His original intention was to wait for the Voice of America to broadcast two more episodes, and the ratings would increase before selling, and then it would be good to sit on the ground and start the price.

Unexpectedly, the first episode was broadcast, and the ratings were not very high, so someone bought it for 12 million.

"I'm surprised, in fact, I wanted to sell it for $10 million, but after quoting this price, the people on the Uterbi website immediately began to curse." Lu Qiang was surprised when he saw Lu Li, and explained: "Later, another video website called, I thought that the other party would not buy it, so I deliberately raised it by another 2 million US dollars, but I didn't expect the other party to just hesitate and agree, and said that he would come over tomorrow to sign the contract." ”

"It wasn't bought on the Uterbi website." When Lu Li heard this, he had already turned on the computer at this time.

Lu Qiang replied when he heard this: "Well, it's a video website called Vimo, I checked the information, it's a website that makes high-definition videos." ”

"I don't care which website it is, I just need to pay for it." Lu Li really doesn't care about the influence of the website, as long as he is willing to pay, he will buy even if it is a newly opened video website.

While speaking, Lu Li opened the Uterbi website and found the Voice of America.

"Brother Qiang, that's not right." Lu Li shouted at Lu Qiang.

Lu Qiang was a little strange, Lu Li only said half of what he said: "What's wrong?" ”

"Come and see, didn't you say in the morning that the Voice of America has a 9 rating? Why is it only 5 points now. Lu Li added.

Lu Qiang didn't pay attention to it except for the Youterbi website in the morning, and he didn't know about the reduction of the score of Lu Dao, and when he heard this, he walked to Lu Li's computer and took a look, and sure enough, the score of the Voice of America had dropped to 5 points.

"When I read it in the morning, it was a 9?" Lu Qiang was also puzzled, didn't the audience like this show.

Lu Li continued to scroll down the webpage and saw some comments below, and found that the commenters had never read the Voice of America at all, but just blindly scolded garbage, cheaters, and the like, and had nothing to say at all.

Thinking of Lu Qiang's words that the Uterbi website can't buy and scold people directly, Lu Li understands a little, and dares to say that the Uterbi website is doing something and hiring a water army to give low scores to lower the rating.

Lu Li told Lu Qiang what he thought, and Lu Qiang also felt that this was the case.

Lu Li didn't expect that not only in Huaxia there were conflicts with many TV stations because of the price of the premiere right of a TV series, but now in the United States, he was hacked by video websites because of the price of the premiere right.

And this Uterbi, as the largest video website in the United States, is too small.

"What are you going to do?" Seeing that Lu Li didn't speak, Lu Qiang asked.

Lu Li said indifferently: "Don't do it, anyway, the premiere rights have been sold, and if he wants to disgust me, disgust me." ”

"But will this have an impact on our ratings?" Lu Qiang said worriedly.

Lu Li frowned when he heard this, the network score will indeed affect the audience's judgment, just like after a movie is released, many professional film review websites have scores, and the impact on these scores for non-professional fans is still very great. And from a psychological point of view, people are more willing to give preference to movies with high ratings.

It is not unreasonable for Lu Qiang to have such worries.
