Compared with the new live broadcast platform Shark, the Huya platform is more like the orthodox live broadcast platform.
The predecessor, WaiWai Live, was the earliest software to get involved in the live broadcast business in China, although it was initially just a plug-in based on the game voice software WaiWai.
However, many players spontaneously live broadcast singing and other programs in voice software. With the enthusiastic development of game players, Waiwai has achieved the leading position in the industry.
In the following years, Waiwai commercialized live broadcasts in voice software, launched an electronic signing system, and its revenue also increased explosively.
In 2013, Waiwai Live's revenue reached 500 million, accounting for 55% of the revenue of the listed company behind it. It topped the company's many businesses and directly proved that the live broadcast industry has unlimited money.
However, the early development advantages based on game voice software gradually turned into disadvantages after competitors emerged. For most users who only want to watch live broadcasts, the new Shark Platform is undoubtedly a better choice.
You only need to open the website to view it, which is much more convenient than downloading a Waiwai software.
In addition, Shark Platform also took advantage of this opportunity to poach a large number of popular anchors of Waiwai Live, and also took away a large wave of traffic. This behavior is undoubtedly a provocation to the established overlord of Waiwai Live.
As a result, the Huya platform came into being, becoming independent from Waiwai Live and becoming a new department, led by Dong Chengjie, vice president of the head office, ready to defend its industry position.
Whether it is backed by the strong strength of listed companies or the technical foundation of its predecessor Waiwai Live, it is the confidence of Huya Platform.
Compared to Shark Platform, a rising star, Tiger Tooth Platform is more like a young general from a well-known family. Why does a mere Shark matter? Wait until I kill him and become famous.
As a result, the curtain of the era of national live broadcast slowly opened, and the smoke filled the air.
After the Huya platform was established, the first step was to poach the opponent's anchor. Since you can poach mine, I can't poach yours?
The competition between platforms is nothing more than traffic and users, and the anchors who are more popular with the audience represent a large amount of traffic and users.
Except for a small number of users who choose to support the platform, most viewers will follow their favorite anchors. When the anchors change platforms, the audience will follow suit.
Popular anchors are the bargaining chips that the platform competes for. The more they have, the less others have. The difference between one and the other will determine the difference between one and the other.
Of course, the platform will also choose to train its own anchors, but these two things do not conflict and can be done at the same time.
While the platform was still being fought over, Little Man Media Company's silent signing of a large number of anchors naturally attracted the attention of the platform.
Good guy, we are having a great time here, are you here to steal the chicken?
If the Little People Media Company only has insignificant anchors, then the platform can still let it go.
However, if the bargaining chip in the hands of Little People Media is attractive enough, the platform will not mind cooperating with it. After all, if you don’t want it, your opponent may take it.
After all, the three leading anchors in the hands of Little People Media are now very popular at the time when the Shark Platform is very popular. If the Tiger Tooth Platform can poach these people...
Even if the Shark Platform cannot be severely damaged, it can still weaken the Shark Platform and strengthen itself, not to mention that the opponent did it first.
You must know that Brother Dazhi, the current leading anchor of Shark Platform, came from Waiwai.
Therefore, Huya Platform, which was gearing up, chose to strike first and contacted Little People Media. After all, everyone was in Yangcheng, so no matter what, they had to give themselves three points of thin noodles, right?
Of course Zhou Dongsheng would give him face and even visit him personally. Zhou Dongsheng had no psychological burden on him.
Are you kidding? How much face can I have now? Zhou Dongsheng still has a long way to go before he can become a big shot who can earn money from face.
What's the big deal about visiting in person, as long as you can sell it at a good price, what's the point of face? Zhou Dongsheng doesn't care, it's just to make money, not shabby!
Today's Huya Platform startup has not yet established a headquarters, and its office is naturally still in a department in the headquarters building.
Zhou Dongsheng took Xu Kaidao to the Yangcheng Creative Park, under the headquarters building of the listed company Happy Times. After explaining his intention to the front desk, he waited aside.
"How much rent can you charge for an entire office building in a month?" Zhou Dongsheng sighed and looked around with interest.
Looking at the prosperity of Yangcheng in his previous life, similar questions popped up in Zhou Dongsheng's mind from time to time. If he could own a house and work as a renter to collect rent, wouldn't his life be wonderful?
However, it seems that this goal is not impossible if he works hard in this life. It is just possible, but not necessary, Zhou Dongsheng thought a little inflated.
"Hello, you two are here, our CEO is here to invite you." A female secretary with a meticulous temperament in professional attire said politely.
Under the guidance of the secretary, the two of them soon arrived at an office door, knocked on the door, and heard a deep voice from inside.
"Please come in."
The secretary opened the door, stretched out his hand to welcome the two of them in, asked if they wanted tea or coffee, then closed the door and left.
The office is quite large. A middle-aged man with a flat head wearing glasses is sitting behind a desk. Behind him is a bookshelf with many books and some trophies.
The middle-aged man stood up and looked over with a smile on his face, "Is this Mr. Zhou? I didn't know there were young talents like you in Yangcheng before. Nice to meet you!"
"No, President Dong is too polite. It's just a small business, not as big as your family's big business." Zhou Dongsheng put on a bright smile and led Xu Kaidao to the desk, and the two parties shook hands.
"No matter how small the business is, Mr. Zhou is his own boss, unlike me who is just a wage earner. Please have a seat." Dong Chengjie joked.
After the two parties sat down and exchanged a few pleasantries, Dong Chengjie got straight to the point and got down to business.
"I've always wanted to meet with Mr. Zhou, just to talk about cooperation. Our platform has just become independent and is in short supply of anchors. We are all companies in Yangcheng, so the wealth should not go to outsiders, right?" Dong Chengjie
Said politely.
Before contacting Little People Media, Dong Chengjie naturally investigated this company. It was only after reading the information about this company that Dong Chengjie chose to interview in person.
After all, there are four young people, three of them are not simple, they are enough for me to pay attention to, not to mention there is such a young Zhou Dongsheng, who has unlimited potential, even making friends with him is worth it.
"Of course there is no problem. In the final analysis, our anchor management company cannot do without the support of the live broadcast platform. Cooperation is a good thing for both of us." Zhou Dongsheng also said politely.
"Since Mr. Zhou has said so, let us not speak the same language. As long as the anchors of your company come to the Huya platform to live broadcast, the conditions can be negotiated, and the traffic support that should be given will not be less.
"Dong Chengjie smiled brightly.
"It's easy to talk about. The price is not the important point. It's just my side. There is only one condition, that is, the contract can only be signed once a year." Zhou Dongsheng said in embarrassment.
"Why? Since cooperation is a good thing for both parties, the longer the period, the better. Is it possible that Mr. Zhou still doesn't believe that our Huya platform can't be successful?" Dong Chengjie pretended to be dissatisfied.
"Of course not, it's just that our company doesn't rule out the possibility of becoming a live broadcast platform. Maybe we will still be competitors in the future." Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile.
"Oh? Does Mr. Zhou also plan to build a live broadcast platform?" Dong Chengjie asked calmly.
"It's not me. How can I have this ability? There is a shareholder in our company who has this idea. We have to take into account the shareholder's ideas. In fact, I have nothing to do with President Dong. I am just a human being.
Working part-time." Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile.
His hand inadvertently clenched into a fist, and what Zhou Dongsheng said seemed specious, but in Dong Chengjie's ears, it meant something else.
Before Dong Chengjie could answer, Zhou Dongsheng's cell phone rang suddenly.
"Sorry, my phone number."
"Hey, it's Mr. Chen's call. Has he arrived in Yangcheng?" Zhou Dongsheng said in surprise.
