Not to mention Chen Tianqiao and Li Yanhong, even Ding Sanshi, who was not interested, couldn't help but be tempted by Lu Fei Capital's proposal to enter the game.
The reception room soon fell into an eerie silence.
Each one said neither agreement nor objection, but each had their own thoughts. At this moment, Gao Yuanyuan came over with a cake:
"A Fei, let's cut the cake."
I saw a round chocolate cake with a layer of rich cream on the outside and a "23" sign in the center.
Lu Fei took the knife and cut it, then handed the first cake on the plate to Li Yanhong, "If everything goes well, this will be PPTV, and it will be returned to Baidu."
"Thank you, Mr. Lu."
Li Yanhong was smiling and her eyes were twinkling.
"Is this 56.com, 楽TV, or Ku6?"
Lu Fei gave the second cut piece to Chen Tianqiao, "Mr. Chen, what do you think it looks like?"
"Me? I'm never picky about food, I only care about whether I can eat enough!" Chen Tianqiao tried, "This way we can exert our full strength, but Mr. Lu, do you really not need our efforts?"
"I will fight the battles, burn the money, and file lawsuits!"
Lu Fei distributed the cakes and said: "You just need to go in and squander the land. They have difficulty in financing and cannot withstand the consumption. The only way is to sell. Even if they resist, you can still take advantage of it in the name of investment."
Come in."
Chen Tianqiao observed his face carefully, "But I have a question that I can't figure out. Penguin has shares in both Tudou and PPS, and a full third of them. Like Mr. Lu said, the entire video website will be reshuffled. Should it include or
Isn’t it included?”
Lu Feidao: "Of course, the ownership of Tudou and PPS will also be re-divided."
"But I don't even want to understand. Mr. Lu is burning money and getting no benefits. What is he trying to do?"
Chen Tianqiao's pupils shrank slightly and he stared hard.
Gao Yuanyuan, who was splitting forks one by one, frowned and cast her eyes worriedly, when she saw Lu Fei knocking on the table:
"Mr. Chen, do you still remember whose position I represent?"
"Penguin." Chen Tianqiao said doubtfully.
"Yes, in the current video website market, I can pat my chest and say that only Penguin Video has been foolishly buying genuine ones. But this is not about how stupid we are, but because Penguin is a listed company, and the problem of piracy will affect those on Wall Street.
Image will also affect the stock price."
Lu Fei said seriously: "I think Yan Hong feels the same about this situation, right?"
Li Yanhong nodded helplessly. Baidu just created a legend on Nasdaq last year. This year, it is about to face a big test. Because MP3 Search, Warner, Universal and other 7 major music labels launched a class action lawsuit, the stock price fell again and again, almost evaporating 20%.
.
"Penguin wants to piracy but can't, but other websites can do it at will. It can easily close the gap that we spent a lot of money to widen in one fell swoop. Why!"
Lu Fei said in an unhappy tone: "It's nothing more than chaos, so my plan is very simple, and in one word, stable."
Chen Tianqiao only felt that it made sense and could not find any fault for the moment.
There is an unequal competition between Penguin Video and other websites. Instead of continuing to waste money, it is better to burn money to kill a group of leading pirated video websites.
Even if he can't be beaten to death, he can still be beaten to the point where he doesn't dare to resist the trend of piracy for the time being.
It is even easier to attract them into the game. Except for Feigou, any company that is not a listed company will naturally abide by the rules and seek stability.
To be stable, the video website industry needs an organization!
An organization must have a talker!
"I only ask that after investing in video websites, you can join the 'Video Content Cooperation Alliance' launched by Penguin. The primary task of this alliance is to suppress piracy, but it is not just for suppressing piracy."
Lu Feiyan mentioned the word "cooperation" concisely and comprehensively.
For example, internal exchanges, distribution of copyrights, or even TV stations joining forces to buy dramas and share costs.
Another example is that once there are signs of "sky-high-priced dramas" in the film and television industry, the guns are unanimously directed at the outside world, and a group of people attack them.
"Mr. Lu is right!"
Cao Guowei echoed: "What kind of technical content can a video website have? In the end, the battle is not about money and content. If we don't unite and engage in internal fighting, I quote and you raise the price, and we fight to the death, the prices of film and television dramas will definitely be chaotic."
If the price goes up, the only ones who will be cheaper in the end will be the film and television companies. I think such an alliance is very necessary, and New Wolf Video will be the first to join."
"Do you have any more questions?"
Lu Fei smiled and looked around at everyone.
"Ahem..."
Chen Tianqiao cleared his throat, "Mr. Lu, if, I mean, if Baidu doesn't want PPTV and wants to acquire Tudou or PPS, will Penguin interfere?"
Lu Fei shrugged, "As long as Wang Wei and Zhang Hongyu agree, I will not object. Even one-third of Penguin's shares can be sold to you, provided the price is right."
"I have no objection, Shanda is willing to join!"
Chen Tianqiao knew very well that just because Lu Fei was either the majority shareholder or the second largest shareholder in Baidu, New Wolf, NetEase, Penguin, Feigou and Shanda, there was no doubt that the whole alliance was in charge. Except for him,
Who else could it be.
What kind of rules should be established? They are clearly Master Lu's rules.
Using capital to order video websites, even film and television companies!
"I don't have any objection either."
Cao Guowei and Liu Edong have already passed Qi, and there is no objection.
"Well, I also want to participate."
Ding Sanshi adjusted his glasses awkwardly.
The corner of Lu Fei's mouth curled up: "Really? I welcome you, but didn't you just want to join in the fun?"
"Hey, I'm saying that NetArt doesn't build a video website itself, and it doesn't buy it, but it can invest some money, and that's absolutely no problem!"
Ding Sanshi instantly forgot about "raising pigs".
Lu Fei glanced at him and said, "Yan Hong, what about you?"
"What else can I say? If you all join in, how can Baidu lag behind?"
Li Yanhong said: "Mr. Lu, removing piracy definitely requires the cooperation of search engines. Whatever Mr. Lu wants Baidu to do, just ask."
"Then I won't be polite."
Lu Fei laughed loudly: "I was busy chatting and forgot to eat the cake. Come on, let's eat cake, eat cake."
As soon as the words fell, all Internet capital took action.
………………
In about half an hour, the birthday party was over.
After the others dispersed, apart from the bodyguard and nanny, there were only two people in the huge villa, Lu Fei and Gao Yuanyuan.
"Yuanyuan, it depends on Hua Yi and you next."
Lu Fei took a tissue and wiped the cream stuck to his mouth.
"Sister Lifang has prepared the materials a long time ago. As long as you make a call, you will immediately take Sohu and Jieshi to court."
Gao Yuanyuan said while cleaning up: "The reasons are very good. They all stole the copyrights of "Parental Love" and "Crazy Stone" without permission. But are you sure that even Tudou and PPS will sue?
Don’t both of them have your investment?”
"If I don't do this, how can I not appear to be selfless, and how can I convince them?"
Lu Fei waved his hand. In fact, he had no intention of holding Tudou and PPS in his hands. Penguin only needed one Penguin video. PPS would be transferred to Feigou.com, which is equivalent to Ali's "Youku". As for Tudou, the next one
Let Ah Li drill inside.
Gao Yuanyuan was very puzzled, "Didn't you say that Ali is Feigou.com's strong rival and Lu Yun won't deal with you? Why did you still sell Tudou.com to him?"
"Because I plan to bury a hole."
Lu Fei showed a mysterious smile. Who would have thought that a couple on Tudou.com would ruin the listing. At that time, Lu Yun was holding a hot potato.
"Hey, you have such a good laugh."
Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes.
"Am I bad?"
Lu Fei touched his face. He was obviously handsome, but even Yanzu would retreat three miles away when he saw me.
"It's so bad!"
Gao Yuanyuan smiled sweetly.
"Then before I got pregnant with you," Lu Fei blinked his right eye, stretched out his hands and said, "Yuanyuan, where is the surprise you agreed to give me?"
"Surprise? Close your eyes first."
Gao Yuanyuan saw him closing her eyes as he was told, holding hands with each other, and led them carefully from the reception room to the study.
When the trivial footsteps suddenly stopped, Lu Fei heard her say that he could open his eyes, and then slowly opened his eyes. In his sight, he saw thick scripts stacked on the table, a total of 8 books.
On the cover, it says "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng".
Gao Yuanyuan raised her chin: "This was originally prepared for the six TV movies of Yang Ma, but I cut it off before I could."
"Why did you think of buying it?" Lu Fei asked.
"That's not you!"
Gao Yuanyuan's eyes sparkled, "I know you have always wanted to act, but you are now the richest man and the whole world is staring at you, how can you possibly go to film. But I thought about it, wouldn't it be better if we just film and not broadcast?
Let us watch the film ourselves."
"But why "Lu Xiaofeng"?"
"Isn't your nickname 'Lu Xiaoji'? Lu Xiaofeng's nickname is also 'Lu Xiaoji', doesn't it suit you perfectly?"
"Who told you that my name is 'Lu Xiaoji'?"
"Sister Xu Xin, she told me that this is what you are called in the financial circle. Pfft, you always like to steal chickens."
"Jealous, they are jealous of me!"
Lu Fei curled his lips, can stealing chicken be considered stealing? The Chinese stock god's "stealing chicken" is called "unique vision", and then came the difficult words, such as "value investment" and "venture capital", which made Gao Yuanyuan cover her mouth.
Laugh, the study is filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
"Well, it turns out you don't like it."
Gao Yuanyuan lowered the corner of her mouth, pretending to be sad: "I originally thought you would like it very much. You can act cool in every scene. There is a beautiful heroine opposite you, and there are many sex scenes.
, Sigh, how about I return 6 sets to Yang Ma?"
Damn it, if you want to say this, I won’t be sleepy!
Lu Fei instantly became interested, "Who says I don't like it? Ahem, it's not because of the heroine, let alone the sex scene. I just think the pretentious Lu Xiaoji is very interesting."
"Tch, it's an advantage for you." Gao Yuanyuan raised her eyebrows, "With 10 scripts, you can find 10 beautiful heroines to accompany you to show off. Are you happy or surprised?"
As soon as he said this, Lu Fei suddenly thought about Gao Yuanyuan, Zeng Li, Jing Tian, ​​Liu Shishi, Yang Mi, Gao Lu...
The more I thought about it, the more interested I became. It would be best for me, a former third-level photographer, to do it myself, not like Ma Dou.avi.
But then he thought about it and said with a wry smile: "I may not have time to take pictures now."
"It doesn't matter. It's not like we have to shoot now. The copyright is in our hands anyway. You can shoot whenever you want, in 5 years, 10 years. You can shoot as long as you want. You can spend whatever budget you want."
Gao Yuanyuan waved her hand generously.
Lu Fei smacked his lips. The "Legend of Lu Xiaofeng" in his previous life was indeed too poor. It was called a TV movie. In fact, the budget was less than that of a TV series. Although he tried his best, it still tasted poor everywhere. The production was quite rough, and the shots were even worse.
Pay attention to.
Of course, the most unbearable thing is to ask He Rundong to play Ximen Chuixue. Can he play Bu Jingyun? Don't come over!
"Do you like this surprise?"
Gao Yuanyuan tilted her head, her hair falling down.
"How can you call it 'like'? That means I really like it!"
Lu Fei grabbed her waist and hugged her.
Back then, Lu Yun recruited Jet Li, Wu Jing and other kung fu stars to film "Kung Fu Dao". Now I, Mr. Lu, have recruited a luxurious cast to star in "Lu Xiaofeng". What's the matter? If you have money, you will be willful.
"As long as you like it."
"But I like it even more if you share the stage with me. Hehe, if we can have sex one or two more times..."
"spit!"
Gao Yuanyuan reached out and covered his mouth, "You can do it if you want me to act, but it depends on whether the conditions offered by someone are high or not."
"Is this okay?"
Lu Fei carried her to the table, opened the first drawer, and took out a few pages of paper, which revealed the complete lyrics of "Write You into My Song".
"Have you finished writing it?!"
"uh-huh."
"Male and female chorus?"
"uh-huh."
Lu Fei lowered his head and pecked, "You want it so much, how dare I delay, but you only have lyrics, and you have to find someone to compose the music."
"Jay Chou is good, Li Yadong is also good..."
Gao Yuanyuan recited the lyrics with a smile in her eyes.
For a long time, the two of them hugged each other and sat on the same chair. The one above was talking and the one below was listening.
Suddenly, Lu Fei asked for no reason: "Yuanyuan, has "Soldier Assault" been filmed?"
"Not yet, but it will get better soon. It has been more than two months since Baoqiang and the others came out of the military area."
Gao Yuanyuan was surprised, "Why do you ask this?"
…………
That night, the moon and stars were sparse.
The dark room was lit by the light of a computer screen.
Zhuo Wei rarely continued to guard Wang Fei, and returned to the rental house in a hurry, holding a handful of photos in his hand. Except for Ding Sanshi's BMW Z4, which was known, the other cars driving out of the central villa area had no clue.
.
"Brother Zhuo, it's time to eat."
The younger brother brought two buckets of instant noodles, "How about it? I haven't found out whose license plate it belongs to yet?"
"I have already sent it to the group and asked people to investigate."
Zhuo Wei ate the noodles with big mouthfuls. After only three bites, he heard the sound of "didi" coming from the stereo. He immediately put the instant noodles aside and stared straight at the screen.
When I saw the message in the chat box, I immediately shouted: "Fuck!"
The younger brother had instant noodles in his mouth and poked his head out curiously. He couldn't control himself and spit out the noodles, "Fuck!"
In the sight of the two of them, the owners of those license plates pointed directly at Liu Yidong, Cao Guowei, Li Yanhong, Chen Tianqiao, and Ding Sanshi. Guaiguai, this was even more explosive than the news that Wang Fei was pregnant!
"Oh, my God, Zhuo, Zhuo, Brother Zhuo, why do you think these big guys are here today?"
The younger brother stammered when he spoke, with a noodle hanging from the corner of his mouth.
"They don't come here for no reason. Someone must have called them here and had the ability to invite them..."
Zhuo Wei chewed his nails, and suddenly he had an idea: "Lu Fei! That's right, only Lu Fei who lives in Qingcui Garden is qualified!"
"Yes, Brother Zhuo, you are absolutely right."
The younger brother's head was stuck, "But what on earth did Lu Fei want to do by calling them here?"
"You ask me, who am I asking!"
Zhuo Wei continued to chew on his nails. He finished chewing on his index finger and then on his middle finger. He chewed on all five fingers but couldn't think of any clue: "But no matter what, something big will happen to the Internet, and it will be a big thing, right? I
If you want to catch this news, why don’t you post it!”
Just when they thought about it for three days and three nights, and couldn't figure out what kind of waves the Internet would cause, unexpectedly, an earthquake broke out in the entertainment industry -
Huayi issued an announcement on its official website, saying that due to Sohu Video's breach of contract, it would terminate the authorization for its film's online distribution rights.
Soon, Han and Tang culture followed.
Chapter completed!
