Chapter 57: There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure

After Chen Bo finished speaking, he took advantage of the fact that all the reporters were not paying attention, squeezed out of the encirclement, and quickly fled the scene.

Sky.com quietly released the "Beautiful Music" online music player in the early morning of the same day, and you can log in to this music player with a QQ number. Tencent added Skynet's external link ads to the top of the latest version of the 2001QQbeta chat dialog.

The "Beautiful" music player uses the ACC format encoding, which is a music compression format developed by Dolby Music Labs for the music community in '97, and Apple's iTunes will use this format to play and download music.

The sound quality is much better than MP3 at the same bit rate, and the high compression rate occupies less memory resources. This will greatly improve the music buffering speed and reduce the user's waiting time.

There's also a specific setting here.,Sky Network has opened up the download function of some music.,This is also the result of negotiations with record companies.,Mainly for old songs that have been removed from the market.,Cold rice and hot hype.。 For albums currently on the market, the player will automatically empty the player's cache and guide the user to purchase the original CD.

What's more noteworthy is that this music player provides online lyrics download and album art download features. All these functions can only be used after logging in to the members of Sky.com, which is also to attract more members to register with Sky.com.

The cute Tengxun little penguin began to show his strong drainage ability, and within 12 hours of its launch in the early morning, the beautiful music player has exceeded 300,000 downloads. Compared with the rough sound quality and extremely low experience of the three major portals, the beautiful music player is definitely the existence of the current artifact.

At this time, Chen Bo was in the hotel for an exclusive interview with Liu Ren, deputy editor-in-chief of the Internet weekly.

A press conference that was not taken seriously spread quickly in the media circle, and the headquarters contacted Sky.com for the first time in the online weekly magazine in Yanjing, asking for an exclusive interview, and it was Liu Ren, a well-known reporter in the current Internet media, who came.

Chen Bo is no stranger to this person, he has ideals and is righteous. And he is a media person who all Internet bigwigs are willing to invite him to dinner and have a great deal with him. Later, after falling out with the red-clothed leader Zhou Dacang, who was ferromagnetic before, because of the concept problem, and bluntly expressing his dissatisfaction in the media, Zhou Dacang played him a trick in the crisis public relations, and then was arrested and sent to prison, which can't help but make people sigh.

The two are still relatively relaxed, and the Internet is no stranger to both parties, whether it is an interesting story or some prospects for the future of the Internet. Liu Ren felt that this young man was very interesting, and other media had now given him the nickname "Chen Cannon", and he was not stage frightened in the face of many media, and fired directly.

On the contrary, he felt that the other party was not such an impulsive person, so the more he talked, the more speculative he became, and the more interested he became.

"I've been following Sky.com since it was launched, and my daughter also likes to hang out on Sky.com. It can be said that Skynet has brought a fresh element from the beginning, and it is a kind of Internet trend! ”

"I don't know what the Internet trend is, but I know that Skynet has been leading the way!"

"Haha, yes, Skynet has been leading the way." Liu Ren didn't feel that Chen Bo was proud, but felt that this was the most normal performance of young people, and as the helmsman of a company, he needed this kind of strong self-confidence.

"I have a piece of gossip here, check it out from you."

Chen Bo thought to himself, big brother, you are also a professional media on the Internet, so you won't gossip like an entertainment reporter.

"I heard that IDG Capital has completed its Series A financing for Sky.com. I don't know if it's true? ”

Chen Bo breathed a sigh of relief now, thinking that Liu Ren would also ask about those gossips with Zhou Xun. However, his news is also quite well-informed, Chen Bo told Xiong Xiaoge when he signed the contract, and he should not announce it to the public for the time being. It's good to be a low-key person with his tail between his legs, but he didn't expect to be probed by Liu Ren, so he had to admit it generously.

Not long after Liu Ren left, Xiong Xiaoge and Wang Gongquan hurried to the hotel where Chen Bo was.

"What's wrong, Mr. Xiong. It's so hot. Chen Bo had long expected this and pretended to be ignorant.

"Why didn't you talk to me before the press conference?" Xiong Xiaoge didn't even sit down, and asked directly.

Chen Bo spread his arms and shrugged, looking innocent, "What happened?" ”

"You, you, I said what is good about you!" Xiong Xiaoge sighed, and then sat down on the sofa with Wang Gongquan.

"Xiao Chen, you may not know very well. IDG Capital still has some investments that have not been cashed out in Superfox, and you don't know the current situation of this industry. It's very difficult for everyone, what can't we sit down and talk about? ”

Wang Gongquan is now completely a red-faced, of course, this remark can't move Chen Bo, precisely because he knows that IDG invested in Speed Fox, and it is also listed on the NASDAQ, and now it has fallen below the issue price, and there is no way to cash out, so he can only be trapped.

"This matter is not discussed. And this is the foundation of the sky network's survival, what happened to the speed fox? What about the first portal? Can you let him take advantage of the fire to rob me and rob me? Chen Bo said angrily.

"You really are! It's not to rob you of your job, it's completely possible to cooperate! Wang Gongquan lamented.

"First of all, it's a matter of principle. If you really want to do entertainment and solve this problem, you can let Zhang Chaoyang come to talk to me. It's not that I'm proud, it's the same for everyone. Moreover, we have negotiated it before the financing, and IDG has no right to intervene in the internal management of Skynet. I'm so sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Xiong! I don't want to do a second 8848. ”

Chen Bo was as stubborn as a stone in a latrine, smelly and hard, and the angry bear pigeon couldn't speak.

In 2000, the website of 8848 can be regarded as a phoenix in the domestic Internet, a star among stars, with a valuation of 400 million US dollars in just one year after its establishment. As a result, in order to make quick arbitrage, the investors who were flocked to the company first seized power, replaced the company's executives, changed the operating model without authorization in order to go public, and squeezed out the founders.

In the end, it was dragged down by force, and during the bankruptcy liquidation, several investors divided the final book of 20 million US dollars and broke up. There is IDG capital in this investor, of course, it has not yet reached that point, but 8848 has begun to mess up internally, and the founder's image on the outside is still extremely glamorous, but it is already ruined.

In order to avoid the ending of the next 8848, Chen Bo will certainly not give up control, and he has no plans to go public for the time being.

Xiong Xiaoge had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll go to Zhang Chaoyang and say, I originally introduced you to cooperate." It's good now, before they cooperated, they became enemies. In this way, since the public power has come, from now on he will be an independent director to assist you in handling these matters, and everything will be under your command. ”

Wang Gongquan stayed, and Xiong Xiaoge left. nominally left an independent director, but in fact, he added a tight hoop, but it doesn't matter, the current situation is not something that the prince can control, and he can also make a lot of suggestions to Chen Bo. As the saying goes, there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure.

Far away on the shores of West Lake in Hangzhou, Shangri-La Hotel has focused on hundreds of domestic and foreign media, which is much more powerful than the press conference of Sky.com, and the financial media on Wall Street are also very concerned about this Internet event.

Although only Ma Yun of Ali, Wang Zidong of Xilang, Zhang Chaoyang of Suhu, Ding Lei of Net E and Wang Juntao of 8848 attended the meeting, a total of 5, plus Mr. Jin Yong. But it is these people who have affected the development of the entire Internet market, and everyone is a legend in the Chinese Internet industry.

When the theme forum with the theme of "New Millennium, New Net Hero" was being held here, the media reporters attending the meeting had already received the news from Yanjing, and the young CEO of Sky.com fired at the three major portals at the press conference, and directly entered the judicial litigation process. If Skynet and the record company win the lawsuit, several companies will face reputational damage, huge compensation, and punishment from the industrial and commercial authorities.

But the people on the stage are now chatting enthusiastically and happily, and they have no idea about it. The reporters in the audience were thinking about how to ask questions to a few people at the meeting, brushing up on their own sense of existence, and a peaceful and harmonious forum is obviously not as eye-catching as a rival with a strong conflict.

Finally, when the event ended, all the media quickly gathered around. A few people were originally happy to greet the reporters who flocked to them, ready to answer some experiences and insights about this event, but when they endorsed their company by the way, they got the opposite question.

Ma Yun, the host, was put aside, Wang Juntao, an e-commerce figure, was also put aside, and even Mr. Jin Yong's side was only interviewed by the Hong Kong Island media, and the situation on the scene was completely a situation of ice and fire.

At this time, the presidents of the three major portals were surrounded by enthusiastic reporters, like stars and moons.

"Sky.com, the Recording Industry Association, and the Music Copyright Society jointly sued you for infringing the online copyright of electronic music, and the claim is as high as more than 300 million yuan, I don't know what you think?" A reporter who rushed over first grabbed the crowd behind him and asked directly.

The three presidents were all confused, what happened? Got sued? There is also a claim of 300 million! And when was that recording industry association founded? I've never heard of this industry association at all.

Several people's eyes crossed the crowd, and the secretarial assistant who followed them looked at the crowd with an anxious expression, and they all understood that something must have happened. Because it was a live recorded program, several people's phones were not carried with them, so they naturally didn't know what was happening in Yanjing.
