Chapter 457 Then I must support the development of the industry!
Chapter 457 Then I must support the development of the industry!
Zhao Si held the phone and felt particularly tortured.
Because Mr. Pu of Duoyu Company had already ridiculed him last time.
He said harsh words but did not implement them, which was very embarrassing.
It would be okay if we never met again, but then I would have to call Mr. Pu again and make a very, very ridiculous suggestion.
"Te Miao's Xingchen is right, it's for the development of the industry. But this is going to cut off other people's wealth! How could a normal person agree?"
"I feel like I deliberately put my face in for Mr. Pu to hit me."
"That's ridiculous! I wouldn't do such a thing!"
"Dip~"
The call went through.
"Hey, hey, hey! Mr. Pu~ I am Zhao Si from Qidian, do you still remember it? Ah, yes, yes. It's me, it's me. I'm the fun guy who went to Kyoto to talk to you about purchasing Zhongshan Novels."
"."
Mr. Pu was a little confused while holding his cell phone.
Did Zhao Si call himself like this?
Could it be said that Qidian’s suppression has made new progress?
Good thing!
Mr. Pu beamed with joy: "What did Mr. Zhao say? Could it be that Qidian. Can you put Zhongshan Novel under your butt and put a few stamps on our hands?"
Zhao Si: "Mr. Pu, just kidding, we at Qidian have always wanted to cooperate with Zhongshan Novel. Now Zhongshan Novel is booming. It is already the second largest novel website in China after our Qidian. It should have made a lot of money.
Got the money?"
When Mr. Pu heard that there was no new progress and that he was being criticized, he immediately became angry.
"It's just average. It's far from what I expected. So what else do you have to do?"
I really want to pay for it! Pay for it!
If you have some backbone, just crush Zhongshan Novel, okay?
When Zhao Si heard this, he immediately became alert!
Zhongshan Novel has developed so well, but Mr. Pu said that it could not meet his expectations. If it continues to develop, wouldn't it have only one goal? Hiss!
Really hammered!
Mr. Pu has a big plan!
He doesn't even hide his feelings anymore!
At this time, Zhao Si felt that he was talking nonsense if he asked them to give up the free system at Zhongshan International, but he still had to say that this was a task assigned by the leadership.
"Mr. Pu's goal is indeed ambitious, but as a member of Huaguo Netwen, Qidian and Zhongshan have shouldered the heavy responsibility of exporting culture abroad. The higher-ups have high expectations for our two leading websites. I don't know if you
What do you think about the current export of online articles to foreign countries?"
Mr. Pu was a little puzzled: "It's okay, I think this is a good thing, what? The international station you started has also crashed? No, right?"
If Qidian’s international station cannot suppress Zhongshan International, then there is really no hope.
Fortunately, Mr. Pu changed his strategy long ago and placed the burden of losing money on the Metaverse project team and animation company.
Zhao Si blushed a little.
"We at Qidian International are currently developing quite well, but our president Xingchen said that for the future export of foreign online articles, we should unify our steps, work together to conquer the market, and make money together!"
Mr. Pu immediately denied: "No! Don't take me with you when you make money. I'm not interested in money."
Zhao Si's face turned dark immediately.
Irony!
A naked irony!
This is a deliberate mockery of the fact that Qidian International has made a lot of noise but has not made any money yet!
Damn it!
How could they suppress our Qidian in this way!
Don’t bully middle-aged people into poverty!
"Mr. Pu. I'm joking again. You, Zhongshan International, have made a lot of money outside, but judging from the current situation, there is still a major flaw. Our president Xingchen wants me to tell you. I think you can consider it.
"
"Oh? Then tell me what the flaws are. I will continue to develop them."
If it can help Zhongshan International make less money, Mr. Pu wouldn't mind listening to it.
Zhao Si was already immune to Mr. Pu's "irony" and continued: "Our president Xingchen has different views on Zhongshan International's free reading. He thinks."
After repeating Xingchen's words to Mr. Pu, Zhao Si heard that there was no sound on the phone.
'Sure enough! I'm going to be regarded as a fool! I'm going to say hell no!'
But now that the words have come to this, Zhao Si still bites the bullet and says:
"Mr. Pu, although changing to paid reading will cause a temporary decline in Zhongshan International's business within a few months, in the long run, it will be beneficial to our online literature industry to go overseas. This is definitely not for us.
Qidian International speaks from the perspective of Chinese online literature facing the world. Our online writing cannot be free! Foreigners must pay for our culture!"
He imitated Xingchen's tone at that time and said it, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Whether it can succeed or not depends on Mr. Pu, he has basically given up hope.
In what industry? Who would be willing to give up their current interests?
As long as Qidian International is not free, Zhongshan International can always occupy the peak of traffic, and Qidian will never be able to catch up.
Mr. Pu pondered for a moment and asked: "Are you saying that Zhongshan International's business will decline within a few months?"
really!
Zhao Si felt secretly in his heart. As expected, Mr. Pu caught the key words right away!
When you ask this question, you have basically declared failure.
"Yes, Mr. Pu, since you don't agree, then"
Mr. Pu immediately said: "How could it be! My dear friend! I love your proposal so much! You should have told me this kind of thing earlier! Hahaha~"
Zhao Si: "???"
Mr. Pu suppressed his increasingly wild smile and said after careful consideration: "Well, I think your proposal is very good! It's not a business that won't decline. The main reason is to make money for free in order to maintain the environment of our Chinese online literature.
It’s too unrealistic! We have to charge! Even if users don’t approve, they run away and throw our software into the sewer. Zhongshan International loses money every day! I won’t frown! I must support the development of the online literature industry!
"
"Tell your president that we, Duoyu, have agreed! Thank you for his suggestion!"
Zhao Si: "Ah! It's not that serious. Wait, did you agree???"
"Of course! Why not?"
Mr. Pu felt happy after hanging up the phone.
Isn’t this another opportunity to suppress one’s own industry?
You may make money by converting paid products into free products, but it is too difficult to convert free products into paid products!
What Zhao Si said is that the business will decline within a few months, which is conservative. By then, Zhongshan International will have lost a lot of users!
Although this is beneficial in the long run, Mr. Pu doesn't care!
All he needs to do is lose all his money this cycle!
Obviously, Qidian added another layer of insurance for him.
"In this way, it can reduce Zhongshan International's income and offset it with the income from original novels by foreign authors. This can reduce the additional burden and even help the company reduce some pressure."
It doesn’t matter if you pay more, the big deal is that the Metaverse project team and animation company will fail.
But if you lose less and want to spend money unexpectedly, it is not a simple matter and there are too many restrictions.
"Everything will be successful if you are prepared, and if you are not prepared, it will be ruined. This is another insurance!"
Mr. Pu immediately told Zhu Shiheng and Niu Zi about changing Zhongshan International to paid and asked them to operate it.
Zhao Si hung up the phone for a long time and still couldn't believe it.
So much so that half an hour later, he called Mr. Pu for confirmation before he dared to report to Xingchen.
When Xingchen heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"I knew Mr. Pu was a very far-sighted person! We Chinese people outside the country should work together as one. Since Zhongshan Novel has sent out a signal of goodwill, we should also show our sincerity."
"Tell the Copyright Department that our authorization for Zhongshan's novels can continue to be opened."
"Now that the situation has reached this point, it's time for both of us to enter the next stage and achieve win-win cooperation!"
