Chapter 1297 President Pei hit the dead end again!
Tuesday, November 6th.
Magic City, Longyu Group.
Chretien and Jin Yong are also busy preparing for the ioi global finals.
Although this ioi global finals is held in Europe, there is still a lot of work here in China, such as operating activities for the national server, holding offline viewing activities, and communicating with various live broadcast platforms about the live broadcast of the event, etc.
wait.
Relatively speaking, they are actually more tired than Eric and Zhao Xuming.
Because Zhao Xuming reports directly to President Pei, he can make decisions on many things by himself, saving a lot of time in inefficient communication.
Chretien and Jin Yong have to report to Zhidou Company, Longyu Group and even Dayak Group respectively, and many normal plans also need to go through the process before they can be passed.
Some solutions can only be dealt with safely, while others must be completed as soon as possible.
At this time, the two of them had just finished what they were doing and had a chance to touch base.
Chretien asked: "Is there any new news from GOG?"
Jin Yong shook his head: "I haven't heard of it."
Chretien sighed: "Pei always keeps his composure."
"We've reached this point, and it's still watertight. No news has been released. I even heard that even the broadcast rights haven't been finalized yet."
"I always feel like there must be some conspiracy behind this."
Jin Yong said with relief: "Not necessarily, it may be that Mr. Pei has too many things to do and can't take care of the GOG Global Invitational Tournament for the time being."
Chrétien still didn't believe it: "That's absolutely impossible."
"No matter who is too busy, Mr. Pei cannot be too busy."
"Under no circumstances should you underestimate Mr. Pei, otherwise you will suffer the most serious consequences!"
"I'm 100% sure this time, Pei will always make big moves against us."
"It can be seen from the time arrangement of the GOG Global Invitational Tournament..."
Last year, the dates of the GOG Global Invitational and the ioi Global Finals were staggered.
GOG starts in September and ends at the end of September; while ioi starts at the end of December and ends at the end of January.
These two major events are separated by nearly three months.
In fact, Zhidou Company originally planned to hold the World Championships around September and October, but at that time, they did not consider making a big deal at all. They just thought of finding an ordinary venue to do it casually.
I never expected that GOG would create such a big battle.
So Zhidou Company overturned all the original plans, postponed it, and set the time for the end of December.
On the one hand, more preparation time is needed to create a bigger event and surpass GOG; on the other hand, it is also to stagger the time as much as possible with GOG's Global Invitational Tournament, avoid the residual heat of the subsequent heat, and make differences.
Facts have proved that ioi's global finals did achieve the expected popularity, but most of the popularity was ultimately won by the FV team...
But this year the situation is different.
For Finger Company, it is too late to hold the global finals until the end of December. It will be played until January next year. Which year is this the global finals?
So this year, the time must be advanced.
September, October, and November are more suitable months, and it cannot be postponed until the end of December at the latest.
They want to hurry up, but after all, there are various regional competitions before the global finals.
The situation of GOG and ioi is similar. They only started to expand to other regions around the world this year, so the starting time of each competition region is uneven.
Some competition regions start late, so we can’t cut the schedule in half, right?
Forcibly compressing is not good either.
Therefore, after considering the time of each competition area, we finally set the time for the global finals in November.
Next year, we will definitely have to work hard to adjust this time forward. The best time is to adjust it to around October.
What surprised Zhidou Company was that GOG’s Global Invitational Tournament has been postponed to this time!
On the surface, GOG has encountered the same problem, that is, it needs to wait for the schedule of other divisions.
But Chretien feels that things are definitely not that simple.
The schedules are deliberately arranged together, just to make ioi die!
It seems that Mr. Pei is very confident in GOG and his own global invitational tournament, and he must be full of energy and ready to make small moves.
Therefore, Chretien did not dare to neglect and kept observing.
But after observing for a long time, there seems to be no big movement there, especially the domestic business, which has always been calm and calm.
Judging from the news coming from various live streaming platforms, it turns out that the sale of the broadcast rights for the GOG World Championship has not yet been finalized.
This is a bit psychedelic. After all, ioi has already negotiated terms with various live broadcast platforms and sold the broadcast rights of the ioi World Championship.
What is Mr. Pei waiting for?
Not understanding this, Chretien simply had trouble sleeping and eating.
He hosted last year's World Championship, and Mr. Pei's mysterious methods still made him feel frightened when he thought about it.
Although this year's World Championship was not hosted by him, it reminded him of the fear of being suppressed by President Pei's overall IQ.
Whenever something slightly unusual happens, I worry whether Mr. Pei is hatching some bad idea again.
The two were chatting when suddenly, Jin Yong's cell phone rang.
His expression changed slightly, he got up and went outside to answer the phone.
After a while, Jin Yong came back in a hurry.
"The move is here, Mr. Pei is here!"
"The news from the live broadcast platform is that Mr. Zhao signed contracts with more than a dozen domestic live broadcast platforms in one day from yesterday to today, including all large and small live broadcast platforms, and no one was left out!
"
Upon hearing this, Chretien frowned instantly.
Did you see this? This is the efficiency of Tenda!
It is really surprising that even a person like Mr. Zhao has become so efficient when he arrived at Tenda.
This also further confirms what Chretien and others thought before: Tengda has been delaying obviously not because Mr. Pei is too busy to take care of it, but because he is secretly brewing something and waiting for the right time!
Otherwise, it would not be so vigorous and resolute.
Jin Yong continued: "What's even more frightening is that the contract conditions between Tenda and these live broadcast platforms are very strange, which allows these live broadcast platforms to use the recommended resources on the platform to convert the broadcast rights fees!"
Chretien was stunned: "Can it be like this?!"
He didn't bother to ask if the source of the information was accurate, because there was a high probability that it wouldn't be wrong.
Longyu Group still has a certain influence in the country and has its own news channels. Moreover, this time Tenda has signed contracts with so many live broadcast platforms with great fanfare, and it cannot keep it secret, and it obviously has no intention of keeping it secret.
Of course, the content of the contract itself is confidential. Jin Yong and Chretien cannot see the specific details of the contract, but they can get a general idea of the general content by dictating it orally.
Chretien couldn't sit still any longer, so he stood up and walked around twice.
"Mr. Pei's trick is still as insidious as ever!"
"The consequences can be imagined. Other platforms will definitely allocate most of their platform promotion resources to GOG. On the homepages of major platforms, there will be a huge difference in the space occupied by these two world championships..."
"This is murder and heart-breaking!"
"The point is we can't seem to do anything."
"We have signed contracts with various live broadcast platforms, and the money has been discussed, and there is no mention of recommendation positions at all."
"I'm afraid it will be difficult to supplement the agreement now."
Chretien and Jin Yong were both helpless.
Because ioi has already signed contracts with various live broadcast platforms, and they didn’t even consider recommending spots when signing.
The live broadcast rights of these live broadcast platforms are all purchased with money, so why should they be given similar recommendation positions? Otherwise, isn’t spending money to buy loneliness?
Although there is a GOG Global Invitational Tournament, there are so many recommended spots on the live broadcast platform.
What Chretien was thinking at the time was that with so many recommended places, even if all the best ones were given to GOG and some second-rate ones were left for ioi, that would be enough.
Just like the scrolling banner on the homepage, you page and I page. Although you are in the front and slightly better, overall we are doing okay in terms of face.
But if Mr. Pei does this, it is no longer a matter of you and me.
When the time comes, the scrolling banner will be cancelled, and all promotional materials for the GOG Global Invitational Tournament will be displayed!
After all, the stronger the recommendation, the more discounts you get.
Although these live broadcast platforms have also spent money to buy the broadcast rights of ioi, the money has been spent after all. How can they get more money out of it like GOG?
Jin Yong said: "Mr. Pei has obviously been waiting. After we have signed all contracts with other live broadcast platforms and there is no way to change it, he will sign this contract with these platforms at lightning speed, which will directly block the situation."
Our escape route!"
After a moment of analysis, the two of them looked at each other in silence.
Chretien asked tentatively: "Can we talk to these live broadcast platforms? In the agreement between Tenda and them, doesn't it mandate how many recommendation seats are required?"
Jin Yong shook his head: "That's enough."
There is indeed no mandatory requirement, but the price for how many recommended seats will be exchanged is clearly marked.
In this regard, Mr. Pei certainly cannot be stingy.
The contract between ioi and the live broadcast platform has been signed. Although it will have a certain impact on the live broadcast platform whether or not to give recommendation positions, it is incomparable to real money no matter how you think about it.
I can't let ioi give money to the live broadcast platform and let them give up the money promised by President Pei, right?
Who pays for this?
Is Longyu Group going out? Or Dayak Group is going out?
It’s unrealistic for anyone to leave!
The key is that the ioi broadcasting rights have been sold, and the money you got is going to be spit out again because of what Mr. Pei did?
I'm afraid I'm thinking too much.
Eric and Jin Yong didn't even talk about the key issue, and they knew very well that even if they reported the situation and gave suggestions, they would probably fall into disgrace and the top management would never adopt them.
When it comes to matters of wasted money, if the senior management can pass it, then there will be trouble.
Mr. Pei's move accurately hit ioi's Achilles' heel!
