After hanging up the phone, Dong Chengjie meditated for a while in the office.
In fact, he did not have high expectations for renewing Liu's contract. After all, Liu was originally a veteran of the IG club, and now he is just renewing his relationship with his former boss.
Even strictly speaking, it is not considered a "former boss". After all, Little Man Media itself also has shares in Principal Wang.
When Liu was signed by Huya Platform, he was only slightly famous, but he has gradually stepped up to the "sacred altar" on Huya Platform. Not only has he become the number one brother of Huya, but he is also a well-deserved leader in the entire live broadcast industry.
In this process, Liu is certainly a beneficiary, but the Huya platform has also benefited a lot. It can only be said that each other has achieved mutual success.
Although I know that there is a high probability that something cannot be done, I am just a human being and always want to give it a last try, just in case it works.
He would not give up until reality completely extinguished his sense of luck. Fortunately, as the helmsman of Huya Platform, Dong Chengjie was also prepared.
The process of Liu growing up to be the first brother on the Huya platform has also brought a lot of traffic gains to the Huya platform. Even if Liu leaves for other platforms, he may not be able to take away all his audience.
After all, the audience of any anchor cannot be all active and die-hard fans, and "silent passers-by" will always make up the majority.
They do not favor any anchor alone. They watch the live broadcast purely for fun. They come and go with the excitement. They enjoy the happiness of "turning brands" and don't even bother to interact.
And the silent majority are often the basic base of a platform. Because of user habits, they will not change platforms at will and prefer to use platforms they are familiar with.
As long as the fundamentals of the platform are stable, the change of top anchors will not cause a fatal crisis for the platform. It is just like a pyramid structure. If the top of the tower is gone, just replace it with another one, or let the people at the bottom take the top.
As the big brother in the live broadcast industry, Huya Platform has a very solid foundation, especially in terms of hematopoietic ability. Most of the veteran anchors in the live broadcast industry are related to it.
It can be said that he single-handedly supports half of the live broadcast industry!
However, times are changing too fast, and the live broadcast industry is changing with each passing day. If the Huya platform just rests on its laurels and rests on its laurels, Big Brother’s heritage will be exhausted sooner or later.
Fortunately, Dong Chengjie took precautions and stabilized the situation a little by relying on his top-ranked "celebrity spokesperson". However, if he wants to fight this protracted battle successfully, he must learn from others.
"It's not a problem to be poached all the time. Who doesn't know how to poach?" Dong Chengjie muttered, always staring at his own family, right? Then let's all do it together and see who can do it better.
"Ask all departments to hold a meeting to discuss the platform's next strategy." Dong Chengjie, who had learned from the painful experience, gave the order and prepared to hold a meeting to brainstorm ideas.
…
On the other side, Zhou Dongsheng also conveyed the good news to Principal Wang. Upon hearing this, Principal Wang was relieved of the depression of being taught a lesson by the Shark Platform and felt very good.
Although it is not a timely help, it can be regarded as a solution to an urgent need. After all, Principal Wang has high hopes for the Panda platform, and the more luxurious the host lineup for the official public beta is naturally, the better.
"It just so happens that Liu has filled the vacancy of Dazhi. This position as the number one brother of the Panda platform can be regarded as a good thing and does not go to outsiders." Principal Wang said with a smile.
Since a lot of money has been spent, naturally publicity must keep up. The publicity resources originally intended for Dazhi had to be used on Liu because of contract issues.
After all, it is impossible for Panda Platform to postpone its launch for a month or two for the sake of great wisdom, even though Panda Platform has negotiated many game anchors.
But in the current live broadcast industry, top game anchors like Dazhi and Liu are hot and scarce resources.
Even if Principal Wang has a lot of money, he can't just buy it if he wants to. Even the Dazhi he obtained was blocked by the Shark Platform due to contract issues. If he forcibly breached the contract, he would have to pay a large amount of liquidated damages.
No matter how rich Principal Wang is, he can't spend all his money on liquidated damages, right?
What's more, poaching itself is to weaken the opponent's business methods and strengthen one's own. If you give a large amount of liquidated damages to the opponent, wouldn't that be capitalizing on the enemy? It is even more impossible for Principal Wang to do it.
Therefore, Liu's role was immediately apparent. Although it also cost a lot of money, in comparison, this kind of plug-and-play immediate combat effectiveness stands out as a real fragrance.
"It has only been a year since Mr. Liu retired from your club, but he has returned to your arms after a long journey. Congratulations to Principal Wang for renewing his relationship." Zhou Dongsheng joked casually.
"All this going around in circles cost me an extra 200 million yuan, and you made a big mistake." Principal Wang scolded with a smile.
"Luck, luck, who would have thought that the price of this pig would rise so fast, but then again, it wasn't you, Principal Wang, who raised the price?"
"So, this wave will reap its consequences." Zhou Dongsheng joked.
"Okay, I don't mind you, but the internal testing of the Panda platform has entered the final stage. It will be launched next week." Principal Wang casually shared the progress of his platform.
It seems that the progress is a bit slow, but compared to the time when the Panda platform was prepared to go online in the previous life, it is undoubtedly much ahead of schedule.
Perhaps this is also one of the influences of Zhou Dongsheng's butterfly. After all, just cutting off beards and picking up missed anchors is enough to cause certain changes in the pattern of the live broadcast industry.
Moreover, this impact will continue.
"You, Principal Wang, are so menacing that other platform bosses may not be able to sleep well," Zhou Dongsheng said following the flow of his words.
"So what? You kid would rather invest in e-commerce or games than my platform." Principal Wang joked in turn.
Then Principal Wang did not give Zhou Dongsheng a chance to deal with it, and left a sentence, "Although you are very evil, but let's see, I will use my absolute strength to prove that you, Zhou Dongsheng, can also make mistakes." Then he hung up.
Dropped the phone.
Zhou Dongsheng was speechless and choked, and couldn't help but muttered, "Are you so vindictive? I keep remembering such a small thing, isn't it just that I won you a sports car?"
However, the development of the live broadcast industry today is quite "unrecognizable". Maybe Principal Wang really has a chance to "change his destiny"?
After all, there are too many uncertainties in this life. Even "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds", a bargaining chip that once changed the live broadcast pattern, is now in Zhou Dongsheng's hands...
An unchanging future is certainly more beneficial to Zhou Dongsheng, but from the moment Zhou Dongsheng became a "butterfly", the future cannot be set in stone.
The moment Zhou Dongsheng became a "butterfly" did not start from buying the ball at the World Cup opening ceremony, but...
When Zhou Dongsheng woke up and found that he was back in 2014, it was already doomed.
