Chapter 362: The Driving Force of Human Beings [Two in One] [Repair]
It is said that among the executives of Zhouyi Film and Television, although Jiang Hong is the latest to join, her qualifications in the film and television industry are not as good as other executives.
But she is the most confident in Zhou Yi's internal listing plan for Gao Fei's five-year listing plan, and even Jiang Hong is more optimistic about the future of Zhou Yi Film and Television than Gao Fei himself.
And as they got along for a period of time, Zhou Yi couldn't help but look at Jiang Hong with admiration.
No way, everyone thought that this round-faced chubby girl was an orange cat at first, but who thought that she was the ancestor of the orange cat.
That's a living tigress!
Sometimes even Goofy has to give the CFO three points.
Of course, it's not that Jiang Hong doesn't know what to do, or that Gao Fei is afraid of her, but that after some combing by her, Zhouyi's financial management system has indeed taken on a new look.
From the organizational structure to the business process, it is becoming more and more professional and scientific.
Therefore, it was not Jiang Hong who made Gao Fei retreat, but a more reasonable and scientific rule.
As the saying goes, there are no rules, there is no circle.
For the CEO of the company, although it is very refreshing to say what he says, but such a company cannot continue to succeed.
Therefore, Gao Fei, as the chairman, naturally has to lead by example and cannot take the lead in breaking the company's rules.
But then again, a more scientific and professional financial management system may take some time to see the effect.
But for Goofy, the effect of this financial management system was immediate.
Because Jiang Hong strictly separated his personal funds from the company's money.
Therefore, like before, Zhou Yi's project is short of money, and he will basically not have any more things to do directly with the money. Even if it is necessary to use his small coffer, it will now go through the formal process of borrowing funds.
This made Goofy feel very happy.
After all, who doesn't want to see their little coffers bulging more and more!
It's just that Gao Fei never expected that Jiang Hong, who had just said that he wanted to distinguish between public and private not long ago, would be like the group of blue pools in the company, and he had the idea of a small treasury!
……
At the same time, in the study room of Houhai No. 9 Hospital.
I saw Jiang Hong looking at Gao Feidao excitedly:
"Boss, you don't need too much, as little as five million, as much as ten million is enough."
It's just that when Gao Fei heard her say that she wanted to invest in a video website, Gao Fei had a toothache and couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Tsk, 5 million, 10 million?
This is really taking money and not taking money!
Looking at her posture, I didn't know and thought I was buying cabbage.
But no matter how rich he is, he can't be so bad!
Although he still has some money in his small coffer, that little bit of money is a lot compared to ordinary people.
But if you put it on a video site, it may not last for a few months and it will be gone.
You must know that the track of video websites is not an ordinary money-burning.
I didn't see it, even if there was a Sohu chassis, Zhang Chaoyang was still anxious about Sohu Video.
If it weren't for that, Lao Zhang wouldn't want to find another way to do something to make a self-made drama, it's not that he can't afford to burn money!
Therefore, Gao Fei didn't bother to beat around the bush anymore, and said directly:
"Xiao Jiang, it's not that I don't believe in your vision, and it's not that I don't want to spend money."
"But you listen to my advice, the water on the track of video websites is too deep, and it is not something that we film and television companies can afford."
"Even if I have money now, if I burn it to the end, I will definitely have no money."
"At that time, even if the video site you said is successful, then why don't we still make wedding dresses for others?"
"Of course, it's nothing to lose a little money, I'm afraid that it will drag Zhou Yi down when the time comes."
Hearing Gao Fei say this, Jiang Hong was suddenly silent.
Seeing this, Goofy thought that he had finally convinced the tigress.
But I don't want Jiang Hong to look small, but her ambition is greater than anyone else.
Therefore, her silence was not persuaded by Goofy, but how to continue to explain to Goofy, so as to convince him to bet on it.
So after being silent for a while, I saw Jiang Hong looking at Gao Feidao with a serious face:
"Boss, the track of video sites is really money-burning, but you are wrong about one thing, because this video site is an exception."
"At least at this stage, they're not that much burning."
"Because unlike those video sites such as Tudou and Youku who are busy grabbing users, Beep is now deliberately controlling the scale of users."
And as Jiang Hong spoke, Gao Fei's face finally became serious unconsciously.
……
In other words, the beep station that Jiang Hong said is actually a very niche and alternative video website.
It is said to be niche because the vast majority of the user base of the beep station are young people who like anime and other two-dimensional cultures.
It's different because the appearance of the beep station was a complete accident.
Because at the beginning, there was no such type of website in the industry, and it was not until 2006, after the launch of station n in Japan, that many netizens who like the second yuan gathered here.
The barrage function is the biggest feature of station n, viewers can leave a message on the video, and the message will appear on the film in the form of a barrage, realizing a kind of "beyond real time, virtual time sharing".
In addition to watching videos and posting messages, these people are also willing to re-create, re-editing, dubbing, and soundtrack their favorite videos to become new works with a unique style.
Half a year after the launch of station n, in June 2007, there was also a two-dimensional video website in China that could post barrages on videos, that is, station A.
The emergence of station A meets the needs of domestic ACG users, who are as keen to watch videos at station A, post barrages, and carry a lot of resources to station A just as young people in Japan love station N.
Of course, their behavior of generating electricity for love seems to be very admirable, but one thing cannot be denied.
That is, station A is the same as the early Tudou, Youku, Six Rooms and other video sites, and most of the videos on it are pirated.
Therefore, when the domestic Internet copyright management gradually became strict, and Sohu took the lead in setting off an Internet copyright war, Station A encountered strict challenges.
Because compared with other video websites with more popular styles, Station A has always been very unfavored by investors, so funds have been stretched.
In addition, there have always been a lot of internal contradictions and technical problems in station A itself, so its server began to go down frequently, making the user's experience extremely poor.
There was even an extreme period of downtime from July to August 2009.
In this case, a 20-year-old "senior fan" of station A, that is, Xu Yi, who is often called "grandpa" by users who often mingle with station A, finally couldn't bear it anymore.
So in addition to work, he built the framework of the beep station on his own, and then united several like-minded friends to create the beep station together.
However, at the beginning, their definition of beep station was actually a spare tire video website of station A, so they hastily named it "mikufans", which means "Hatsune Miku fans".
But I didn't expect that although the beep station was willing to be a spare tire, station A took the initiative to die.
So after the extreme event of a month of downtime, many two-dimensional enthusiasts who felt that they were being teased began to migrate from station A to mikufans in anger.
I don't know if Xilin, the founder of Station A, is disheartened.
So under the condition that station A still has the support of many old users, it hastily sold station A to Hangcheng winger games at a low price of only 4 million yuan.
It can be said that Station A's move is equivalent to taking the initiative to hand over the crown of "the holy land in the hearts of two-dimensional lovers".
So in this way, under the situation that Xu Yi himself was confused, he mikufans unknowingly turned the spare tire right.
Subsequently, for a series of reasons, Mikufans was renamed Beep Station.
It was during the time when Goofy acquired Zhou Yi that Xu Yi officially resigned from the company and operated the beep station full-time.
Of course, although the laurel of "the holy land in the hearts of two-dimensional lovers" sounds bluffing, in fact, there are only about 30 people at the moment. Compared with industry peers such as Tudou, Youku, and Sohu Video, it is undoubtedly a grass platform team.
It was also under this circumstance that the beep station entered Jiang Hong's sight.
Because Jiang Hong likes to watch anime, she was naturally very happy when she learned that such a video website also appeared in China.
Therefore, when she learned that Beep Station had not received even a single investment after being in the beep station for a while, Jiang Hong immediately sensed the opportunity.
And after seeing that Gao Fei finally paid attention to it, Jiang Hong made persistent efforts to explain:
"Boss, you just regarded Beep Station as a video website, but it's not accurate."
"Because compared with Youku and Tudou, which are large and complete video sites, Beep Station is more like a community dressed as a video site."
"The videos in there are actually posts one by one. And the barrage posted by the user is like a reply on the first floor. ”
"So it's not so much that the users of the beep station are watching videos, but that they are interacting in social spaces such as Weibo and Tieba."
Hearing this, Gao Fei finally couldn't help but light up his eyes.
To be honest, he was moved!
Don't look at what Jiang Hong said before, but none of the last sentence is effective.
As for the reason, it's actually quite simple.
It's nothing more than "people's hearts are insufficient, and their desires are difficult to fill"!
……
It is said that when Gao Fei was just a group performer, the biggest desire in his heart was actually to be like Mr. Wang Gang, and he could make a lot of money with one play.
In this way, he can once again live the life of the yanai with fine clothes and food.
That's why when he first became famous, Gao Fei was so keen on running business shows to make money.
It was also for this reason that when Gao Fei really bought a big mansion in the capital, he would slack off for a while.
But people are always greedy.
When Gao Fei, who was still immersed in the happiness of becoming popular, after the crew of "Mythology" saw the majesty and grandeur of Brother Cheng Long, his ambition began to quietly breed again.
Because for the first time, he realized that actors can also do this level.
So Goofy woke up from the dream of being rich and peaceful, and began to climb higher.
As for the latter things, it's even simpler.
Gao Fei, who was stimulated by the exaggerated scene of Huayi Brothers when they went public, began to expand his ambition more and more.
It was with the idea of "I can do it too" that Gao Fei acquired Zhou Yi in the shocked eyes of the industry.
It can be said that it is Gao Fei's "insatiable greed" that has supported him all the way to this point.
It's just that before today, Gao Fei's ambition was just to work hard to run Zhouyi and eventually make it surpass Huayi.
But when Jiang Hong said that "Beep Station is actually a community dressed as a video website", a thought flashed through Gao Fei's mind that he had never thought of before.
That is to jump out of the track of film and television companies, enlarge the pattern a little, and amplify the ambition a little more!
After all, no matter how domestic film and television companies develop, it is estimated that it is the magnitude of Huayi Brothers.
And this scale is among the domestic film and television companies, although it can be called a big one, but compared with Sohu, NetEase, Penguin and other companies, it is not enough.
This is also the reason why Huayi is the leader of a private film and television company, but the Wang brothers still want to take the Internet aircraft carrier Ahri.
Because Huayi's market value is placed in front of Ahri, that is, the scale of a subsidiary.
So Gao Fei knew in his heart that even if he surpassed the Wang brothers in the future, he would still be a younger brother in front of that group of Internet elders.
However, although Gao Fei was unhappy in his heart before, it was nothing more. After all, in terms of making money, those who do film and television are really not the opponents of the group of people who engage in the Internet.
It's just one moment, another time.
In the past, it was because he couldn't see any hope at all, so Gao Fei would accept his fate.
But now that he has finally found a glimmer of light, Goofy is naturally reluctant to give up.
Even if he knows that his thoughts are a bit "wishful thinking", but throughout his journey, which thoughts are not "wishful thinking"?
So after a moment of silence, Goofy finally couldn't help but be moved.
There is no way, he really can't be moved.
You must know that as the wild era of the Internet has passed, there are few opportunities for newcomers to stand out.
Because in the past, although China's Internet field was short of money, it was full of various opportunities. Now, although there is no shortage of investment in domestic Internet companies, the opportunities have almost been tapped by their predecessors.
It's no longer the era when you can get millions of dollars in investment with just one idea.
In this way, it becomes more and more difficult to see how rare the opportunity to beep is.
After all, as Zhang Chaoyang said before, video websites are born with both "Internet" and "film and television circles" genes.
Therefore, whether it is a film and television company to carry out Internet business, or an Internet company to set foot in the film and television industry, video websites are the most suitable entry point.
Thinking of this, Goofy actually had almost made up his mind in his heart.
However, because this is already related to the strategic direction of Zhouyi's development in the future.
Therefore, even though Goofy already had an idea, after a moment of silence, he still didn't immediately agree, but decided to go to the beep station first.
Hearing this, Jiang Hong was naturally overjoyed, and immediately arranged it......
