Chapter 190: Ye Ning's Plan
The two websites that Ye Ning proposed to acquire are Mtime and Douban.
Founded in 2005, Mtime focuses on serving the film industry, and is a very influential film media and e-commerce service platform in China.
In layman's terms, Time.com is a community for querying movie information and writing film reviews to discuss movies, not a platform for watching and downloading movies for free.
However, Time.com has been salted for many years, oh, it's not right to say salted fish, Time.com has been dormant for ten years, concentrating on content accumulation customers, and finally, in the original time and space in 2016, Wanda Cinema Line spent $280 million to wholly acquire Time.com.
Time.com also became famous all over the world because of this deal. It has a very significant feature that its business complements the cinema chain, which is probably the reason for Wanda's huge acquisition.
There may not be too many people who know about this website, but there should be many people who have heard the name "Douban".
Douban is a community website. The website was founded by Yang Bo on March 6, 2005. The site started as a book, video, and audio to provide information about books, movies, music, and other works, both descriptions and comments are provided by users (User-generated content, UGC), and is a featured website in the eb 2.0 website.
The core user group of Douban is urban youth with good educational backgrounds, including white-collar workers and college students......
On the surface, Douban is a review (book review, movie review, music review) website, but in fact, it provides a variety of service functions such as book recommendation and making friends with common interests, and it is more like a new community network integrating BLOG, dating, groups, and collections.
Some people think that Douban is a product of spring and snow, and an unpopular book or a little-known movie itself has a limited audience, and it is difficult to generate commercial value in these niche markets. However, Douban has been one of the few SNS sites that can balance revenue from the beginning.
The most important source of income for Douban is its cooperation with shopping websites. In the services provided by Douban, product price comparison is a very important part. Every time a user enters a large online mall such as Dangdang and Excellence through a link on Douban, the two parties will share the profit according to the pre-agreed proportion.
Gu Cancan is quite literary and artistic on the surface, but in fact, she is really not a literary young man in her bones, she has no interest in Douban, but she is very interested in Douban movies.
Douban Movies is one of Douban's important businesses, providing the latest movie introductions and reviews, including film information inquiry and ticket purchase services for the films released. Douban users can record the movies and TV series they want to watch, watch, and watch, and score and write movie reviews by the way.
Don't underestimate Douban's film reviews, later on, to a certain extent, Douban's film reviews can decide the life and death of a movie.
Director Bi, the director of "Pure Heart, Chasing Dreams in the Showbiz", and Douban film critics to learn about it.
Gu Cancan wants to expand the entertainment industry, and he has long considered these two companies, not only Time.com and Douban, but also the meow-eye movie Gu Cancan is also in Gu Cancan's plan.
It's just that after Gu Cancan's inquiry, he found that Meow Eye has not yet been founded.
This is also an opportunity to send it to the door, of course Gu Cancan of the meow eye movie will not let it slip away, meow eye combined with time network and Douban movie, if the three can be smoothly combined, the works of the bright era will be easy to gain word of mouth on the Internet, and even control and guide public opinion.
This matter is extended back four years, and it is impossible for Gu Cancan to form this matter, but now, the time and place are favorable.
Now is not the era of Internet + everything, the Internet has not yet entered all aspects of people's lives, but the rapid rise of smart phones in advance will accelerate this process.
Gu Cancan has long planned to integrate movie reviews and online ticketing resources, Time.com and Douban movies are not missable for her, she has the bonus of passing through the aura of rebirth, and knows the importance of these two companies.
But Ye Ning is not a reborn, he can actually take this into account, Gu Cancan couldn't help but admire in his heart, Ye Ning really deserves his reputation, and it is not in vain that she invited him with a lot of money.
Ye Ning said "Time.com" and "Douban" firmly with a confident smile, Gu Wei's left eye was dazed, and his right eye was puzzled, although he was also an Internet practitioner, he really had no impression of these two websites.
"Mr. Ye, what do you think? Why did you want to acquire these two sites? Gu Cancan asked, and she saw that her father didn't know about these two websites.
Ye Ning instantly understood the meaning of Gu Cancan's words, and briefly introduced the two websites, and the doubts in Gu Wei's eyes disappeared.
Having been engaged in the online game industry for two years, he already knows and understands how to think about problems with Internet thinking, and after thinking for a while, Gu Wei clarified his thoughts and looked at Gu Cancan and Ye Ning with some surprise: "What do you two mean, do you want to control movie reviews?" ”
"Hehe, Dad, I don't want to control the comments, as the old saying goes, the mouth of the people is better than the defense of the river, I don't think we have that much ability to control the comments, but we can guide the comments appropriately." Gu Cancan's eyes were shining, and the smile on the corner of his mouth looked a little evil: "Mr. Ye can take these into account, it's really not simple, what else do you think?" ”
The mist drifted and dissipated from the small teacup, the turquoise tea swayed slightly in the cup, Ye Ning stared at the pure and beautiful tea and thought for a while, he understood that this was also a test for Gu Wei's father and daughter, Zhengse said: "In terms of domestic theaters, Wanda is an upstart, to be honest, this is not the object we can match." Then there are state-owned enterprise theaters, such as the New Film Association, Shanghai United, etc., which we also don't have enough capital to fight against. There is a big cinema chain in Guangdong Province, and its development strategy is to build all-digital cinemas in the fourth and fifth tier cities and counties. At the same time, we acquired the movie review website, and at the same time launched a theater ticket information query service on the website, providing users with the information of all theaters. In the future, it can also integrate theaters for ticket sales statistics, recommend movies and even movie theaters to users, and help users solve the problem of where to watch movies and which movies to watch. The behavior of allowing users to check information, ratings, movies, and movies is completely controllable. ”
Ye Ning's expression was calm, but her tone and eyes became warm.
Gu Wei listened to Ye Ning's statement, and his mood couldn't help but stir, he could imagine that if the Bright Cinema could really do this, then when the movie of the Bright Era was released......
"Okay, Mr. Ye, you are fully responsible for the acquisition of Time.com and Douban." Gu Wei made a decision to determine the acquisition plan.
Gu Cancan said helplessly: "Dad, it's not that we will sell it to us if we want to buy someone." I know something about these two websites, Time.com has been losing money, and now I don't think it even knows the direction of development. As for Douban, I'm afraid it's not that simple for this website to want to acquire. ”
"Mr. Ye, you have mentioned recommending movies and even movie theaters to users to help users solve the problem of where to watch movies and which movies to watch, and online ticketing must have been thought of, right?" Gu Cancan suddenly asked Ye Ning.
"Yes, it's just that I think it's very inconvenient to pay online now, and it's still very difficult to implement online ticketing, so I didn't mention this part. After all, the road has to be taken step by step, and the meal must be eaten one bite at a time. Ye Ning looked at Gu Cancan in astonishment, thinking that Gu Cancan was known for being a genius, I thought it was only in music, but now it seems that she is also very smart in business, no wonder the outside world has been rumored that the bright family is mainly her decision-making, is it true?
Gu Cancan stood up, walked to the big floor-to-ceiling window, and looked at the prosperity outside, the traffic outside was bustling immediately, and the pedestrians were hurrying in the cold wind.
"Mr. Ye, I feel that these two websites are not so easy to acquire, let's contact and negotiate first, and see the attitude of the other party. It's just okay to take a stake. As for the rest, let's wait until our theater has a prototype. Mr. Ye, the bright cinema line pleases you. ”
Ye Ning stood up and replied solemnly: "I will do my best." ”
Gu Cancan doesn't doubt Ye Ning's ability, but the start will not be so easy, the acquisition of Time.com and Douban will definitely not be done easily, and even if the other party completely refuses, it is very likely, just take this opportunity to see Ye Ning's style of doing things.
……
Sneaking into the bright era, Su Luo was not in the company.
Gu Cancan thought about it for a while, and remembered that today was the day when the contract was officially signed for the acquisition of Jinjiang.
Shengda still participated, fortunately, the bright era has long been doing work, Su Luo has already secretly acquired the equity of several small shareholders in Jinjiang in advance, when the ice core wants to regret it again, Li Jingdan and another major shareholder will hit the ice core heart, and directly dismissed the CEO position of the ice core, and the ice core had to sell the shares to the bright era with hatred.
"Hehe, Jinjiang GET!" Gu Cancan smirked a few times.
With Jinjiang, it is equivalent to having an endless stream of scripts, especially Gu Cancan knows that in addition to Qing court dramas, the popular dramas in the future will almost be the world of Xianxia dramas, and the original works of many popular dramas are from Jinjiang.
Jinjiang is in hand, and the TV series is worry-free!
……
Happy to happy, Gu Cancan didn't know what to do.
The acquisition of Jinjiang does not require her to come forward, Ye Ning of the Bright Cinema Line is full of energy, and the bright future has her father in charge of the development of everything is good, for a while, Gu Cancan actually fell into a state of having nothing to do.
Half a month later, she will go to the country to participate in the Tokyo International Film Festival. To be honest, Gu Cancan's current state is a bit similar to when he was in high school, he wanted to go to school, but he had to participate in a lot of activities.
She wants to immerse herself in learning, but time is very urgent, real estate and Internet giants have begun to invest in the film and television industry, if the bright era does not rise as soon as possible, as much as possible to get more market share, in the future in the face of BAT and Wanda, which have huge capital, there is no chance of winning.
Sometimes Gu Cancan thinks that he has even changed his gender, what kind of struggle is he still fighting, anyway, now the family has enough money, and the rest of his life is enough to worry about food and clothing.
Just thinking about God's rebirth into this time and space, giving him a chance to live another life, shouldn't he let himself eat and wait for death?
And to put it mildly, Gu Cancan himself is unwilling, he has so much information about the future in his head, and if he doesn't make any achievements, isn't he reborn in vain.
In the previous life, he didn't have engineering thinking, and he couldn't do it as a scientist to contribute to the country, and besides, there were traversers who had brought very positive changes to the country, Gu Cancan felt that he still didn't want to make trouble for the country in this regard, where the contribution was not a contribution, if he could excel in literature and art and then use his works to play a subtle leading role in the social atmosphere, it would be regarded as not being reborn.
"She's meowing, maybe she was born to work hard." Gu Cancan complained in his heart, and finally chose to go back to school.
……
Go to the teacher first to cancel the leave.
Of course, Gu Cancan will not have to disguise himself on the campus of Chinese opera, so along the way, Gu Cancan has frequently attracted the attention of his classmates.
She herself felt that it was a failure not to win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Director, but as everyone knows, how many people have been directors all their lives and have not even been nominated.
Gu Cancan was nominated at a young age, nominated for Best Director at the age of seventeen, this may be the youngest director nomination in the history of the Golden Rooster Awards, many Chinese opera students are both envious and jealous of Gu Cancan and happy for her, this is her primary school sister, and she is also the pride of Chinese opera.
Seeing Gu Cancan, who is beautiful and tall, has a wealthy family and is talented, how did he get reincarnated? Seeing Gu Cancan, many students had mixed feelings.
"Can-chan, can-can!"
I was walking on the way to the administration building when I suddenly heard someone calling out to me.
Gu Cancan stared intently and saw that it was actually Hu Xiwen!
"Sister Xiwen!" Gu Cancan happily beckoned to Hu Xiwen not far away.
The sun was shining warmly, Hu Xiwen ran towards Gu Cancan in small steps, a little backlight, Hu Xiwen couldn't see it clearly, only saw that her body seemed to be plated with a layer of golden light.
"I think of the running in the sunset that day, it was my lost youth."
This sentence suddenly appeared in Gu Cancan's mind, and he smiled even happier.
I haven't seen Hu Xiwen for a few days, Gu Cancan thinks of Hu Min, an old man, who has been busy during this time, and he hasn't been to Hu's house for more than a month.
Thinking that the old man really treated her like a granddaughter, Gu Cancan felt a little ashamed.
Let's see what classes are in the afternoon, let's go see Old Man Hu if it's okay, Gu Cancan made a decision in his heart.
"Cancan, you, girl, haven't been to your house for so long, and I won't be there when I go to your house to look for you." Hu Xiwen trotted over, panting slightly.
Gu Cancan looked at her face that was slightly red from running, and said with a smile: "Sister Xiwen, long time no see." ”
"Grandpa misses you, I'm going to eat at home tonight."
"Okay, okay." Gu Cancan agreed without hesitation, and then sneered: "Actually, you can call me and call me about dinner, I will never be absent." ”
Hu Xiwen: "....... ”
