Chapter 762 It’s better to leave the remaining brave men to chase the poor bandits (4k)
"Eat, haha."
Lu Fei glanced at the text message from Liu Yifei, ignored it, and didn't reply. He just let her lick him for a while.
At this moment, Xu Lei knocked on the door and entered.
"A Fei, call my buddy, what's the matter?"
"I went to your house to pay New Year's greetings. Do you have any news about what I mentioned to the old man?" Lu Fei turned around.
"Hey, it's only been a few days, so the meeting probably hasn't started yet."
Xu Lei waved his hand, "At least we need to reach a consensus, and then discuss how to help. Don't forget, it's not just Logic. Huawei, SMIC, Fuxin, Yangtze Memory, etc. are all involved. How to deal with the sanctions must be formulated.
Come up with a charter.”
"Can you please take it easy?"
Lu Fei spread his hands.
"Yes, but you don't have to worry too much. The adults will definitely protect you and won't let you fight alone."
Xu Lei said: "The old man means the same thing."
"That's enough." Lu Fei raised his lips.
"Although I didn't find out the information you want, there is some new information about our e-commerce."
"Oh, tell me."
“Didn’t the Interim Measures for the Administration of Online Commodity Transactions and Related Service Behaviors be promulgated last year? Online stores began to require real-name registration. Many people, including us, guessed that this was a prelude to taxing online stores. Now there’s no need to guess. This is
fact."
Xu Lei said: "It will be implemented soon. Do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing for us?"
"The advantages outweigh the disadvantages." Lu Fei smiled.
"How do you say this?" Xu Lei asked.
"If you think about it, if you think about it carefully, both Meituan and Feigou are already formalized. Although taxation has an impact on the platform, it also means that the entry threshold for online stores has been raised, and the e-commerce platform has also been raised in disguise.
The entry threshold is very high. It will be difficult for a big platform like Feigou, Meituan, and Ali to appear in the future!"
Lu Fei smiled and said: "It does not mean that Feigou and Meituan's position and share in the market have been consolidated."
"When you say that, I understand."
"Perhaps it won't be long before e-commerce websites and group buying websites will die off in batches, and only a few will be left in the end."
"There is already this trend. Baidu's 'You'a' will not be able to continue. Li Yanhong's e-commerce plan has been ruined. The strategic focus has shifted to the B2C company jointly with Neon Jingtian. He wants to learn from our Jingdong.
There is no way, but I see Xuan."
There was a trace of disdain in Xu Lei's tone.
"Group buying and e-commerce have entered the Red Sea. Think about it, just last year, two thousand-group wars disrupted the market. Market fees increased 10 times, the number of employees increased 10 times, and operating costs increased 10 times.
, the amount of investment has increased tenfold, the bubble is almost as big as the ozone layer, and it will be very cold this year, freezing to death."
Lu Fei's eyes were firm, "Of course, Feigou and Meituan will not freeze to death, but you can also eat hot pot and sing songs."
Xu Lei nodded in agreement. Thinking of group buying websites, he suddenly thought of Yipay, because Penguin Pay and Caifubao charge fees. Small and medium-sized websites, especially group buying websites, disliked the high fees and low renewal rates, so they all turned to Yipay because
It's free.
"A Fei, we have to be careful about this. Don't let Yipay get the advantage of group buying and let Luyun make a comeback."
The words were full of caution against Lu Yun and Yi Pay.
"Are you afraid that the countryside will surround the city, or that he will return as the king?" Lu Fei raised a disdainful smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Aren't you afraid? Aren't you worried about his comeback?" Xu Lei said.
"I'm not worried at all. He can't turn over. He's like a grasshopper in my hand, jumping and jumping, but I can crush him to death at any time." Lu Fei made a pinching gesture.
"Then you should pinch it."
Xu Lei asked curiously: "How do you plan to squeeze it?"
“Isn’t 315 Consumer Rights Day coming soon? Isn’t Yangma’s annual anti-counterfeiting and rights protection program about to be broadcast? At that time, let the media check these group buying websites and find a few bad guys who cooperate with Yipay.
Let's take care of the roll call and sort it out." Lu Fei narrowed his eyes into a thin line.
"Hey, that's a good idea!"
Xu Lei couldn't help but smirk. Even Meituan couldn't completely ban the chaos of group buying websites. What's more, newly emerging platforms like LaShou.com and Manzuo.com can basically catch them one by one.
"We should also bring Meituan with us," Lu Fei added.
"Bring Meituan with you? It's not necessary, you can completely cover it up. We sponsored Yangma's crossword guessing red envelope event during the Lantern Festival." Xu Lei shook his head.
"It is better to expose one's own ugliness than to have others expose one's strengths. If we do it ourselves, we still have room to maneuver, and we can avoid the important and take the easy."
Lu Fei was prepared to accuse Meituan of being “unable to guarantee the quality of group buying products”, but he was going to charge other websites with serious crimes such as “not reviewing the qualifications of group buying companies” and “providing false and inferior products”. After all, the online public opinion position lies with Master Lu.
control.
If you say you are, you are, and if you are not, you have to be!
"Yes, as long as it can create trouble for Yipay, anything will do!" Xu Lei readily agreed, "But we have to tell Wang Xing, Huiwen and the others in advance that Meituan will be the yellow cover."
"Yes, as long as the group buying website is not good, Yipay will not be able to develop." Lu Fei was full of confidence.
Once a group buying website is named by 315, it will inevitably face a credit crisis. Coupled with the soaring operating costs, life will only become more and more difficult. If subsequent capital cannot keep up, bankruptcy is inevitable.
Just like dominoes, dozens or hundreds of group buying websites will go bankrupt and die, which will make VCs even less optimistic and afraid to invest. In a vicious circle, more and more dead group buying websites will become more and more.
At this point, I thought, "It would be better if there is another group buying website that can be like Tudou.com. If its IPO fails, VCs will withdraw their investment from the group buying field faster."
"If you do this, Yipay will be useless. The competition cannot compete with Caifubao and Penguin Pay. There is nothing unique about the business. The partners are all a bunch of rabble. No matter how great Lu Yun is, he is useless.
use."
Xu Lei smiled and said, "He privatized Yipay and privatized Loneliness. He has completely trapped himself in the quagmire."
"No, actually there is another one." Lu Fei smiled.
"No? What can I do?" Xu Lei was surprised.
"P2P." Lu Fei showed a playful smile.
"What the hell?!"
Xu Lei was excited, "Can't you? This thing, together with subprime mortgages, triggered the economic crisis in the United States. The higher authorities have always been very strict in controlling P2P and subprime mortgages. They should not allow payment websites to develop in the direction of P2P. This is
It's an evil path, Lu Yun is so smart, he wouldn't have thought of it."
"It is precisely because he is a smart person that he is able to embark on this evil path. The problem is that he does not know how to make Lu Yun voluntarily embark on this path of no return." Lu Fei touched his chin.
"A Fei, you are really a devil!"
Xu Lei was immediately horrified. If he got involved in P2P and encountered a thunderstorm, he would be shattered to pieces. If Lu Yun dared to play like this, he would have to be played by Mr. Lu until he died. Life would be worse than death.
"That's what I thought. If you want to operate, you have to plan carefully. There is no rush. Take your time."
Lu Fei waved his hand.
"If Lu Yun offends you, he will be unlucky for eight lifetimes."
"Okay, let's not talk about him, let's talk about business. Qidong and Lai Haisong are currently working on the European logistics and warehousing system and Jingdong's overseas cross-border e-commerce. The domestic business is basically handed over to Zhang Yong. You should also pay more attention to it.
Put aside the iQiyi matter, you will take the lead in providing cloud computing services, and we cannot lag behind Amazon in this area."
"Don't worry, I'm familiar with the business."
"Then Qiangui, would you like to come with me?"
"No problem, you can leave all official matters to me."
"most!"
Lu Fei and Xu Lei smiled at each other in a tacit understanding. In addition to going to Qiangui to build the country's first and world-class cloud computing service industry base, they also helped their eldest brother Lu Yun to find out the details in advance.
Qilixiang Milk Tea and Moutai’s joint branding cooperation.
"Well, Ah Fei..."
Xu Lei was about to speak but stopped.
"This is not like your style, Lao Xu. If you have something to say, just say it. If you don't say it, I will see you off."
Lu Fei is also obsessed with the fact that his industry covers the entire China, and is really the lifeblood of hundreds of millions of people.
As long as you don't seek death, you basically can't hang up street lights.
"Don't bother, I told you."
Xu Lei opened his mouth and said: "Actually, it's iQiyi. Why don't I step down immediately? Before I leave, I have to find some benefits for iQiyi. Let this be my legacy."
"Then what do you want from me for iQiyi?"
Lu Fei raised his lips.
"Hey, didn't I hear that Penguin Video will soon cooperate with Han and Tang to launch two blockbuster TV series? We at iQiyi can't lag behind." Xu Lei laughed, "Don't favor one thing over another, you have to think about it no matter what.
If you want iQiyi, iQiyi is also your own, but it is much weaker than Penguin Video."
"Don't worry, the benefits of iQiyi are indispensable. After all, iQiyi may be the first video website in China to be listed on the US stock market. It must be adjusted to the best condition before listing for IPO."
Lu Fei knocked on the table.
"Looking at your appearance, you must have an idea. Tell me quickly. Tell me, what do you think?" Xu Lei felt itchy in his heart.
"It's dinner time, let's chat while eating."
Lu Fei raised his hand and looked at his watch.
"Your treat." Xu Lei joked.
"Someone is treating me. Let's go eat at her table."
Lu Fei rolled his eyes and thought about it.
"Is it your boss Gao's? Or is it Zeng Li?" Xu Lei teased.
"Yuanyuan is busy right now. The Han and Tang Dynasties have hit a market value of 100 billion. I just confirmed this year's plan with her a few days ago." Lu Fei shook his head and laughed. "Sister, I am in Berlin, so I can't reach you."
"Berlin?" Xu Lei was surprised.
"The Berlin Film Festival, "Hello! Mr. Tree" has been shortlisted. She is the producer and the heroine, but she is not allowed to go."
The corners of Lu Fei's mouth curled up slightly.
"Hey, let me tell you why you kid suddenly got the idea to sponsor the Berlin Film Festival and co-write something like this."
Xu Lei said with a smile: "Then it doesn't make sense that this film festival doesn't award an award. After all, you are the general sponsor."
"At least the Special Jury Award will be fine, but I think "Hello! Mr. Tree" is very likely to win the Golden Bear, or even the Grand Jury Prize," Lu Fei vowed.
"Hey, you two have become famous in the entertainment industry." Xu Lei's eyes flickered, "Then who is inviting us to dinner today? Is it that Master Liu? She is relying on the 'Koi Goddess' now.
It’s really hot.”
"It's not her, it's Liu Yifei." Lu Fei narrowed his eyes.
"Hey, there is only a koi goddess, and Liu Tianxian appears out of nowhere. How did you hook up with her? Be careful of the love affair."
Xu Lei joked.
"Go, go, let's talk about business with you. Maybe I will take her with me for the future development of iQiyi." Lu Fei said mysteriously.
"She? No way?"
Xu Lei looked confused until he followed him to the designated hotel box. Along the way, he couldn't figure it out——
What is the relationship between Liu Yifei and iQiyi?
"Mr. Lu! Mr. Xu!"
As soon as the door of the box opened, Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli were very excited when they saw Lu Fei. After all, they couldn't believe that he really agreed to their dinner, but what they didn't expect was that he actually brought Xu Lei, and again
Nervous and confused.
Fortunately, Liu Xiaoli reacted in time and sat them down for the confused Liu Yifei, pouring two cups of tea enthusiastically.
"You should know this person, my deputy, the vice chairman of Feigou." Lu Fei introduced casually.
"iQiyi is now under my control for the time being."
Xu Lei glanced at him, but still couldn't see any clues.
Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli couldn't figure out that Lu Fei wanted to bring Xu Lei, and they couldn't figure out that they actually put the two of them aside, completely treating them as maids and old ladies picking up food and pouring wine.
His thoughts were not on Liu Yifei at all.
Even when they thanked Mr. Lu for his gift and named Liu Yifei for two movies with an investment of hundreds of millions, he just clinked glasses and talked about his own business.
"Hey, I've eaten. It's time to answer my questions."
Xu Lei poked Lu Fei with his elbow, "How does iQiyi develop? Why is it related to Liu Yifei?"
"The future direction of iQiyi cannot be focused on buying copyrights, but on production. But it is not a traditional TV series, but an online series." Lu Fei took out a tissue and wiped his mouth.
"Web series?!"
Not only Xu Lei, but also Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli were all shocked. You must know that these days, online dramas are still very shoddy. Making online dramas is too low and low. I never expected that——
iQiyi is planning to make a web series!
"What's wrong with web dramas? Don't you think iQiyi is uncomfortable investing in web dramas? Let me tell you, if you want to invest in good web dramas in the future, you will have to spend a lot of money to recruit people and burn money every day."
Lu Fei had a serious look on his face.
"It just feels a bit weird, so what should we do specifically?" Xu Lei quickly recovered from the shock. He knew that every decision made by his brother was definitely not groundless.
"The web dramas that iQiyi wants to create are of course not the rough ones on the market today, but high-quality web dramas with big IP + big production + big traffic." Lu Fei held out a finger, "Penguin has made "Ghost Blowing the Lamp"
"The plan for the series of online dramas, iQiyi, is it possible to also launch a series of "Tomb Raiders"?"
""Tomb Robbers Notes" web drama version!"
Xu Lei and others all turned their attention to him.
"Yes, we must make full use of the difference between online dramas and traditional TV dramas, which is the loose supervision of online dramas."
Lu Fei laughed and said: "Things like tomb robbing, thrillers, and even criminal investigation suspense that touches on the dark side will definitely not be able to be shown on satellite TV under the local censorship system, but the audience obviously has needs in this regard. Is this a roundabout way for video websites to overtake?
shortcut?"
"hiss!"
Xu Lei took a breath and was instantly inspired.
"Why should I cooperate more with companies like iQiyi, Penguin, and Han and Tang? That is to establish an industrialized producer system through cooperation with a large number of outstanding leading film and television companies. We must have a professional script evaluation mechanism, and
There must be a professional management system for the crew." Lu Fei said eloquently.
Liu Yifei looked at him without squinting, his eyes filled with admiration, and his heart was beating wildly.
"Is that an iQiyi web drama, maybe we want her to cooperate?" Xu Lei finally realized the significance of Liu Yifei.
"Have you heard what Mr. Xu said? When iQiyi makes a web series, if I ask you, will you be willing to star in it?"
Lu Fei looked at her with amusement.
Liu Xiaoli immediately became anxious, regardless of their hype, but in her own perception, online dramas are low-level dramas for low-level actors. How can a celebrity like Liu Yifei make online dramas? That is not self-made.
To lower one's status is called degradation!
My daughter is not so hungry that she is not selective about food!
Even if the one who rewards her with resources is Mr. Lu!
Just as he was thinking about what excuse to use, Liu Yifei blurted out: "I will take whatever you want me to take."
"!!!"
Liu Xiaoli looked at her daughter in disbelief.
Xu Lei took a sip of wine and looked at Lu Fei and Liu Yifei with playful eyes, giving him a strange and deformed feeling.
Suddenly, I thought of "Fifty Shades of Grey".
"very nice."
Lu Fei took the initiative to raise his glass, good girl!
Liu Yifei lowered his head and his cheeks were red. After toasting and drinking with him, his whole face became even redder, from his cheeks to his ears.
Obviously there is only one glass of wine, but if the wine is not intoxicating, everyone will get drunk.
Seeing that she was so well-behaved, Lu Fei was not stingy. Didn't he want to go to Hollywood and have a little taste of the sweetness——
Invitation letter to Liu Yifei to attend the Oscar Awards.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu."
Liu Xiaoli, who was originally very dissatisfied with the online drama, instantly lost her dissatisfaction. Liu Yifei was even more excited and smiled brightly.
