"Shu Yun sent me a message, saying that she finally saw a foreign classmate in Chou Country buying Jiang Jin Jiu 3, and it's a collector's edition. Of course, the overseas version is q3pro!"
"No one around me has bought it until now. Is this good news?"
"This is her personal perspective. It's normal. How many ordinary people in our country use Blackberry phones now? And this is a groundbreaking breakthrough."
"Okay, since my Miaomiao said it's good news, it must be good news."
"Humph, this is good news."
"Yeah."
"Also, brother, the pressure sensitivity level of the stylus has not changed. It is still 1024 levels of pressure sensitivity."
"yes."
"Then why did the price increase by 100?"
"It's been redesigned, it's much bigger, and charging has become more convenient."
"Bah! Is plugging it directly into the charging port of a tablet to charge also called an upgrade? It seems so weird..."
"Just say it's convenient or not, right?"
"But it's so strange."
"Are you just saying it's convenient or not?"
"I don't want to care about you anymore."
…
"Brother, I found that this stylus is still very different from a real pen. It feels completely different."
"I still need to continue to upgrade and accumulate experience."
"Then you lied to me that I can study paperless in the future?"
"Ten years from now is also the future."
"Hate!"
"How's your review going?"
"The writing is almost finished. I'll be ready to start shooting in two days. Where do you think I should shoot?"
"in China?"
"[beat][beat]"
"Okay, in the study?"
"I also think it's better in the study, so I'll go back and clean it up."
"Um."
"Then which platform should I send to? Can I make money?"
In the original history, the mobile Internet exploded in 2013. In 2014, Youku launched an "original video revenue generation platform", mainly through advertising sharing, fan sponsorship and value-added services;
On the contrary, Bilibili, which later went further in original videos, did not launch a creative incentive plan until 2018.
However, Youku, which has been renamed "Youku Tudou", is more focused on competing with iQiyi on the mobile terminal.
Although 4G has not yet arrived, the speed of 3G network is completely enough to watch videos. And because of the emergence of Gushici Company, the explosion of domestic mobile Internet traffic has been more than a year ahead of schedule. At this time, "Youku Tudou" has already been launched ahead of schedule.
Started this "Original Video Revenue Generation Platform" plan.
Zealer is a pioneer in the domestic digital review circle. In its early days, it was based on Youku.
However, because of Wei Qingfan's investment, Station B has developed faster and is already preparing for transformation. It also has plans to encourage creative creation.
Luoshen Video and even Luoshen Music also have similar plans, but they are still under internal evaluation and need to consider the longer-term impact.
——There is a high probability that I will give up in the end, because the gains outweigh the losses, and this conflicts with the positioning of Luoshen Video and Luoshen Music.
However, just like Lingxi’s early positioning, it is also not what it is now, and it has also reached a crossroads of destiny.
The difference is that whether it is music or video, it is not an ordinary waste of money!
Of course, there is also an advantage, that is, China generally does not pay enough attention to copyright. Luoshen Music and Luoshen Video can be the first to take advantage of the opportunity to acquire copyrights when copyright fees are not that expensive now.
For example, Mr. Wei understands this very well. He even purchased the copyrights of deeply impressive works such as "The Three-Body Problem" and "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" in advance.
"You can try posting on Youku first. Luoshen Video will most likely not be original. If you want to post a song, you can go to Luoshen Music."
"Where's your Bilibili?"
"It hasn't been decided yet. I won't interfere in the operation, and the traffic is not big right now. Let's go to Youku first."
"Okay, I'll take a picture first and then talk about it."
Wei Qingfan chatted with Li Miaoyu for a while, then pondered for a while, and then called the person in charge of Luoshen Music and Luoshen Video to have a conversation.
The success of Lingxi gave him great confidence. He no longer believed that Tencent was invincible. Even WeChat had been killed. Was he still worried that he could not beat Tencent Video and QQ Music?
What's more, in the original history, domestic video and music platforms were not unified, and they were far less dominant than WeChat.
Nowadays, the research and development pressure of Gushici Company is very high, but for now, it is still possible to squeeze some funds into Luoshen Music and Luoshen Video.
"Our current weakness lies in the computer side. Compared with traditional computer video websites such as Youku Tudou and PPS, we still have considerable advantages on the mobile side, especially in our own system.
, user activity is very high..."
The person in charge of Luoshen Video is named Yu Shenggui. He joined Gushici Company in 2011 and was one of the initial leaders of the Luoshen Video project.
Also because of the examples of Lingxi Communication and Yishan Games' two independent operating subsidiaries, this person is also a little jealous and wants to follow suit.
His definition of Luoshen Video is to benchmark iQiyi.
This has a high probability of success, because everyone can see that mobile is the future trend.
"I personally think that the original platform mentioned by Mr. Wei is very promising and has great user stickiness. We can definitely build our own music ecosystem..."
The person in charge of Luoshen Music is a young woman who has just turned 30, named Min Qiuling. At the beginning of this year, because of the resignation of her boss and her outstanding performance, Mr. Wei recognized her talents and promoted her to be the person in charge of Luoshen Music.
The development situation of Luoshen Music is much brighter than that of Luoshen Video, because the number of users now is very large, and on the mobile terminal it can compete with the two major music platforms Tiantian Dongting and Kugou.
The paying user group is the only one on the Chinese Internet.
Around Wei Qingfan, the people who listen to songs basically use Luoshen music, but not many people use Luoshen video to watch videos. There are only him, Jiang Qinghuai, and his parents who don't know how to use other video software.
However, her idea was completely different from Yu Shenggui's, because she saw the cost of music copyright and wanted to create her own ecosystem in the music industry.
The idea is somewhat similar to NetEase Cloud Music.
Wei Qingfan was still a little hesitant about Luoshen Video's plan, but he agreed with Min Qiuling's idea, mainly because she had obviously gone through careful consideration and all aspects of the plan should be more detailed and reliable.
At the end of the conversation, he basically determined the development direction of Luoshen music and gave a "strong support" evaluation in his heart;
Luoshen Video, on the other hand, is more cautious and "can try".
"I think it's pretty good. I even think it's a bit late to make this decision now."
Although Jiang Qinghuai did not attend, he could go to him directly to inquire about the decision. After learning this, he smiled and said, "Luoshen Music is really useful, especially the comment section. Sometimes I will read it when I have nothing to do. Basically, under every song
There are many touching stories.”
"..."
Wei Qingfan curled his lips and made no comment.
As the founder of the "music review area", Luoshen Music relied on this to break out of the music industry. After forming a community culture, like the development trajectory of all online forums, there will be a lot of high-quality content output in the early stage.
The future development trajectory cannot escape from the inherent laws. It is estimated that in a few years, "Luo Shen Music" will become "Luo Shen Music".
"As for Luoshen Video, there are still not many movies and TV shows to watch..."
Nowadays, we don’t pay much attention to video copyright, but that’s not the case at all. Luoshen Video has been consciously acquiring some movies and TV shows, mainly in the “childhood memory” genre, but there are still many that cannot be watched.
Jiang Qinghuai was talking about the advantages and disadvantages of the Luoshen video beside him. After talking for a long time, he saw that Wei Qingfan didn't say a word and seemed to be thinking about something seriously. He couldn't help but feel a little strange and asked: "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm wondering, if that's the case, can we package Lingxi, Yishan Games, Luoshen Music, and Luoshen Video into one company, and then go public..."
This path is definitely feasible. Among the four subsidiaries, only Luoshen Video is relatively weak, and Lingxi even has the capital to go public independently.
Wei Qingfan is not worried about whether it can be listed, but is thinking about the impact after listing.
"I think it's okay. You're holding on to the shares of Gushici Company too tightly. If these four subsidiaries are packaged and listed, the shares must be divided. This can reduce a lot of pressure..."
Wei Qingfan made many enemies because of the shares in the Ancient Poetry Company. Although the Ancient Poetry Company was a company he founded himself, with the rise of the Ancient Poetry Company, too many interests were affected upstream and downstream of the entire industry chain.
People inside and outside the company, including Li Wanyi, Li Miaoyu, Jiang Qinghuai and other close people, have actually more or less persuaded him that there is no need to cover it up so tightly. However, in order to better promote "dividends for all employees", Wei Qingfan has never done so.
Regress.
Packing and listing the company's communications, games, and audio-visual sections is a compromise strategy that can help him relieve a lot of pressure.
Especially Lingxi.
With the popularity of "Lingxi Official Account", Lingxi's monopoly position in the communication industry has become more difficult to shake, and QQ has also been difficult to compete with. And because of the popularity of the official account, the importance of this software in social life has further increased.
Relevant units have discussed this issue several times.
"I think it's okay too."
In the evening, Jiang Qinghuai went home for dinner and secretly told Li Wanyi Wei Qingfan's idea. Li Miaoyu immediately gained everyone's unanimous approval.
Even his parents agreed and tried to persuade their son to do this.
They are very satisfied and contented with their current life. What they are afraid of is that their son is too rich, which will make others jealous and cause disaster.
Their understanding of listing and stock split is very simple, that is, "make money together if you have money." In this case, those who make money together are all friends, and they will help if anything happens.
This way my son will be safer.
To a certain extent, this is true, especially in Wei Qingfan's current situation.
"What you are worried about is that it will affect the company's strategic development, but as long as the company keeps control of the subsidiary, there will be no problems, and after the listing, there will be more funds for development. The financial pressure of Gu Shici
It can also be smaller..."
Li Wanyi develops from his strategic development perspective, while Li Miaoyu is more concerned about things that are more "pragmatic": "After the four sectors are merged, what will the company be called?"
Wei Qingfan was a little funny and asked: "What do you think is a better name?"
"Of course I think it would be better to call me 'Miao Miao'..."
Li Miaoyu rolled her eyes, "For example, 'Miaomiao Media' sounds good, right?"
"It sounds good, it sounds good."
Wei Qingfan nodded calmly, naturally not taking it seriously, "I'll think about it again and go back to the Strategy Office to discuss it."
The next afternoon, he brought up the matter at a meeting in the Strategy Office, and then...
Everyone agreed, even Zhang Yuanping agreed.
This matter went so smoothly that Wei Qingfan almost had the illusion that he was digging a pit. However, after a detailed discussion, there was basically no objection that the advantages of this matter outweighed the disadvantages.
In terms of financing, things went smoothly.
As soon as the news spread around the company, four or five major capital companies came directly to the company, including Baidu and Alibaba.
