499 Although I can't spend enough money, I have lost the sense of struggle

In late May, the finale of "Ode to Joy" aired.

In the end, its average rating remained around 2.41, temporarily ranking first in this year's ratings list.

There were many cheers, but many more still saw the decline of the TV platform.

You must know that "Ode to Joy" premiered nearly 1.8, broke 2 in four days, and surpassed "The Pretender" to the top in less than a week, and it is faintly the most popular phenomenal TV series this year.

According to the original TV ratings law, the beginning of the rise is so fierce, and the follow-up word-of-mouth popularity has kept up.

The ratings of 2.5 are only guaranteed, and there is a certain chance that it will break 3.

However, the current achievement is not that "Ode to Joy" is not powerful, but that the entire environment has caused the ratings of the TV platform to shrink.

Some pessimistic practitioners have shouted out the saying that "breaking 3 is a miracle in ratings" in the future.

This statement has been agreed by most people, and some people feel that it is exaggerated, and now 2015 is not half over, and there are still some popular dramas that have not been released.

For example, Wei Yang's "Langya Bang", he is a well-known king of ratings, and breaking 3 is a basic operation for him.

But even so, it is still difficult to hide the voice of decay, and there are more sharp expressions from people who understand.

Even if Wei Yang's new drama can break 3, and even the later dramas can break 3, he is only one person, how many dramas can he make in a year?

The general environment is sluggish, and no matter how powerful Wei Yang is, it is impossible to bring back the hundreds of millions of lost viewers of the TV station.

Unless, he will stop broadcasting online from now on, and the new drama will be broadcast exclusively on TV, and he will concentrate on the TV platform, but this is too unrealistic.

In the past, he may have been able to throw money hard, but now he is the boss of PPTV, and I am afraid that he has long been one of the people in the world who is looking forward to the collapse of the TV station.

There are uncomfortable, and naturally there are happy!

Compared with the declining trend of TV platforms, the performance traffic of major video websites this year has reached a higher level.

At present, some video websites have released data for the first quarter of this year and related third-party monitoring.

There are five video websites that cover an average of 30 million people per month on the PC side, according to the ranking, they are iQiyi, Youku, PPTV, Penguin and Sohu.

On the mobile side, there are three companies with an average monthly coverage of more than 150 million, ranking Youku, iQiyi, and PPTV.

This data is a significant increase from last year, and although many companies have not announced their profits, it is speculated that many websites have also increased by more than 50%.

In particular, Youku, due to the absorption of the two major shareholders of Xiaomi and Alibaba, has performed extremely well in the stock market.

The current situation is that the veteran leader Youku and iQiyi, which acquired PPS and developed rapidly, are competing for the first place in the industry.

The above data is basically either Youku remains the boss, or iQiyi overtakes it.

Youku has always occupied the first position of the video website before, and later ate potatoes, which has a strong heritage, but there is no big capital behind it.

Although iQIYI has been established for a short time, it is backed by Baidu and won PPS, its strength has soared, and it has formed a first-mover advantage in content production.

It can be said that if there is no PPTV to insert a bar, iQiyi is now the boss of the website's self-made content.

Even now, strictly speaking, PPTV relies on the blood transfusion of blue whales, and the production ability of the website itself is inferior to that of the other party.

However, the nature of the two websites is different, iQiyi is self-produced and self-sold, PPTV and Blue Whale are in the same vein, complement each other, and win-win cooperation.

It's hard to say which of the two mechanisms is better, but the PPTV model is more in line with Boss Wei's interests and control, so as long as there are no major loopholes, this model will continue for a long time.

It is precisely because PPTV has become a representative of self-made content that it has weakened iQiyi's advantages to a certain extent, resulting in its current suppression of Youku as in the previous life.

At this time in my last life, although iQiyi did not distance itself from Youku, it has taken advantage of all aspects, and all data are basically in the first place.

This also led Youku to speed up its cooperation with Alibaba, and was eventually acquired and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alibaba.

In the end, with the collapse of LETV and the decline of Sohu, a three-legged pattern of Kuyou Goose backed by the three Internet giants of BAT was formed.

At this stage, although iQiyi is performing strongly, Youku has not been defeated, the data of the two sides are very close, and they are competing repeatedly, and the competition is still in the white-hot stage.

Because of this, although the overall situation of Youku welcoming capital into the market is inevitable, there is a lot of room for mediation, and even the meaning of selling at a little price, while hooking up with Ali, do not forget to tease Xiaomi.

And just when Youku and iQiyi were fighting at their most lively, PPTV also rose rapidly under the attention of many people.

About April, someone made changes in the year since Wei Yang became the owner of PPTV, which can be described as earth-shaking.

The actual controlling shareholder changed from Suning to Weiyang, and through continuous large capital injections, it finally obtained more than 65% of the absolute controlling stake.

And the website has also jumped from the original second-tier website, to a first-line upstart, although there are still disadvantages in individual aspects, but the advantages are also extremely obvious, the development speed is amazing, the prospects are broad, stunned is to put the penguins and Sohu under the body.

According to the data of 2015, PPTV ranks in the top three in all aspects, ranking behind iQiyi and Youku.

Although there is a lot of luck and non-objective factors in this, it is also part of the strength.

In the Internet era, data comes first, and PPTV has this data performance, as long as there is no fraud, it is really the top three in the industry.

Within a year, a video website jumped to a big level, killing the top three in the industry, and there were many winners of the subsidiary of the Internet giant (Penguin) and the old power website (Sohu).

I dare not take the miracle of the industry, and the Internet is much more outrageous than this, but the strength of the achievements and prospects can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.

This has also caused another small miracle, that is, the valuation of PPTV at about 3 billion before Wei Yang became the owner has increased by at least 6~7 times.

This is not such an ethereal valuation as before, but a price given by real capital financing.

At present, PPTV is still in the stage of rapid development, and there are some funds in hand, and there is no clear public financing, but the wind has been leaked out.

Interested in capital and investors of Wu Yang!

Two of these investment institutions and funds have already approached PPTV and have already made offers.

The specific terms are complex, and the target share and capital investment method and other requirements will not be elaborated.

To put it simply, the highest bidder gave PPTV a total valuation of 19.2 billion yuan, and the valuation of the other company was not lower than 18 billion.

And this is only a preliminary contact, it is clear that this cannot be the floor price, and there is still plenty of room for negotiation.

Not to mention, there are many other capital institutions eyeing up.

There's no way, Youku in the U.S. stock market is about to rush to 30 billion yuan, and the domestic LeTV is like a rocket, and the goal is straight to the 100 billion mark.

You know,A lot of LETV's current data is not as good as PPTV。

Of course, LeTV has the suffocation bonus of ecological anti-suffocation and Accountant Jia's "stealing the day", and Boss Wei can't compare.

But everyone didn't expect PPTV to become a demon stock like LETV, with the development of the entertainment industry and the ferocious momentum of PPTV, as long as it can reach half of LETV, it is also tens of billions, and everyone still makes money.

To put it mildly, no one can see what Boss Jia's style is, it's too exciting to play.

No one dares to guarantee that the drumming and passing flowers will not reach their hands, and the thunder will explode.

In contrast, the number of PPTV roads is much more right, although Boss Wei also has some comical operations, but it is harmless, as long as it can make money and is safe, no one cares.

iQiyi is Baidu's Chinese food, Sohu and Penguin can't be eaten by ordinary people, and Youku is also in love with Alibaba.

It can be said that now there is only one large-scale video website that can let everyone eat cake togetherPPTV.

Not to mention that this site is extremely fast-growing and has a bright future, and no one dares to guarantee that there will be no next financing, which is likely to be the last chance to get on the bus.

Therefore, although the formal financing has not yet begun, everyone in the industry understands that this PPTV financing is bound to be a dragon fight.

Needless to say, the competition is fierce, there is a high probability and even a premium, but I don't know how much it can be overflowed.

20 billion will definitely not be able to beat!

30 billion is not easy to say.

The probability of 40 billion is relatively low, but who guarantees that no ruthless person will gamble on it!

There has never been a shortage of legendary stories of "paper for gold" in the Internet investment community, and there is no shortage of unjust people who have made such dreams.

Of course, there are also brave people who buy horse bones.

In this financing, PPTV is actually still secondary, and many people value Wei Yang more.

This young man, who is not yet 30 years old, has become a major business tycoon in China.

His companies Blue Whale, PPTV, and Red Shark have staged brilliant achievements, and their business management capabilities have been widely rumored by many people, but the investment community is actually more concerned about Boss Wei's investment vision.

Needless to say, a B station and today's headlines are enough to make the vast majority of investors pat their thighs with regret.

Wei Yang's Green Crab Venture Capital Company is not well-known in the industry, but its strength is not weak, and it has cooperated with many well-known and emerging companies.

Although it has not disclosed the specific situation to the outside world, the specific assets are not more than 10 billion, and I am afraid that there must be billions.

It doesn't matter if the PPTV project doesn't make money, and you are not afraid of losing points, it is the key to befriend this young business giant, and if there are any good projects in the future, everyone can make a fortune together.

So don't look at the current PPTV is still only in the stage of release, and when it comes back to start financing, Boss Wei's ranking in Forbes has to jump forward again.

However, Boss Wei is very Buddhist about these, and he is even a little melancholy.

"Ugh."

In the rest area of the crew of "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night", Wei Yang put down his mobile phone and sighed sadly.

Nazha has other scenes today, but Pan Yueming and Qin Lan have his rival scenes, hearing Wei Yang sighing, a little curious, Qin Lan asked a question that made her regret it for life.

"What are you worried about?"

Wei Yang showed the mobile phone page to two people, and there was a news on it, which said that due to the popularity of "Ode to Joy", PPTV performed outstandingly, and the valuation rose, which derived an estimate of Wei Yang's net worth, and the number of people who got it was smacked.

"You say, if I really become the richest man in China and even Asia before the age of 40, and I can't spend all the money, then what is the meaning of life?"

Pan Yueming: "......"

Qin Lan: "......"

Don't be impulsive, he's the boss, the bodyguard is next to him, and he will be killed if he makes a move, so he can't go back and stab the villain.

Qin Lan can't wait to slap her two mouths, so that you can ask more questions, forgetting that this dog day is a famous forced king.

Back then, in "Let's Talk", Wei Yang's sentence "I don't care how much money I have, I'm not interested in money" and "Making 100 million or 1 billion is just a small goal and a big goal for me", almost drove the host crazy.

At that time, these two sentences were included in the quotations of the king, and they once became Internet buzzwords, and the words "small goal" and "big goal" also had an additional pronoun.

Wei Yang looked at the two who were silent and remorseful, and he didn't think it was exciting enough, so he frantically output the mending knife.

"Money is just a number, and it becomes a burden for you."

"This world will play with people, sometimes I want to lose some money, improve the motivation to fight, but it is useless, no matter what you do, you will make money, and the more you earn, the more you earn."

"Sometimes I envy you, you can taste the sweet fruits of hard work, which is like me, making hundreds of millions of dollars is like stagnant water."

"If there is a choice, I will be an honest little actor in my next life, why don't I start a business, there is no fun in struggle."

“……”

Wow, the dog capitalist gave Lao Tzu death, kill, kill, kill!!!!

Pan Yueming got up suddenly, Wei Yang instinctively leaned back slightly, his expression was vigilant, and Huo Jun, the bodyguard who was silently clenching his fists next to him just now, was also in good spirits, his footsteps moved slightly, ready to strike at any time, Qin Lan looked at Pan Yueming with admiration and excitement.

Hero, the day has come to eradicate harm for the people!

Under the gaze of the three of them, Pan Yueming's face turned red, and finally coughed lightly and left the next sentence.

"I'll go to the bathroom."

Rubbish!

Although Qin Lan could only be angry and incompetent, she couldn't help but still despise Pan Yueming extremely in her heart, and then when she saw Wei Yang's turned eyes, she immediately jumped up.

"Ouch, it's a little uncomfortable, I'll take some medicine and take it."

After that, Qin Lan ran away with a smoke, and Wei Yang was lying on the beach chair boringly, his voice fluttering.

"If you don't have fun, just have some fun on your own, and the effect is still good."

"It's just easy to get beaten."

Huo Jun added faintly: "Next time you pretend to be forced, tell me in advance, I'll call more people, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to control the scene." ”

"Be faithful."

"It's hard to say, we are also prone to rebellion like you, and my fists were clenched just now."

"Is it so powerful? I'm not all pretending to tease them, I do have some real feelings, money is a ......"

Before he finished speaking, Huo Jun took a step back, covered his ears with his hands, and just didn't listen, and Wei Yang could only shut up when he saw this.

Although Huo Jun is an old man who has followed him for many years, he has nothing to say about his loyalty, but he is so stimulating, no one can say that the brakes suddenly failed that day.

Sighing, Wei Yang did not continue to torture Huo Jun, but opened Li Jiahang's WeChat.

[Brother, my brother is in trouble]

Li Jiahang replied quickly: [What's wrong? 】

[Accidentally, my net worth has increased by hundreds of millions, I have bought all the high-end communities in the magic capital, private jets have also been booked, there is everything at home, and my girlfriends don't need me to spend money, you help me come up with ideas, how can I enjoy the pleasure of squandering, I am almost dead]

There was silence on the phone for dozens of seconds, and then several 60-second voices, and Li Jiahang's angry voice could be heard without clicking on it.

Wei Yang came to lie down comfortably: "Oh, it's comfortable." ”
