Chapter 502 The Best Chicken Soup in History
When he met Li Dongling, Gary Hansen specifically mentioned the past events when he shook hands with Li Dongling. When Li Dongling heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly.
It sounds like Gary Hansen is trying to close the relationship with Li Dongling. Back then, ABC media also cheered for the lawsuit between Dongling Hi-Tech and Microsoft.
But you can’t just listen to the sound. What is the status of ABC TV station in America? It is one of the top media giants. It has resources, connections, and information channels that far exceed the imagination of the outside world.
To put it bluntly, the uncrowned kings of ABC, NBC, and Fox have no idea how many big figures in America are holding dirt on them. The term "deeming a deer a horse" is tailor-made for media giants. The key is that it is really He has the ability to lift someone up to the altar at the most critical moment, but he can also pull someone down, even the commander-in-chief.
I hope ABC TV station is a kind-hearted person and stop daydreaming. Gary Hansen said these words in front of Li Dongling, which may not be without some hints.
That's it for other small media. ABC may not have noticed the anomaly in that lawsuit. Suddenly, Microsoft was accused by thousands of people and attacked. This kind of method of fanning the flames, ABC is all too familiar.
As long as ABC is willing to investigate, they will definitely be able to find out something. After all, the methods used by Li Dongling and Larson back then are not foolproof. As long as ABC is willing to investigate, they will definitely be able to find out something. There are clues that can reveal the inside story of the incident that year.
"I said back then that Microsoft could not make concessions without the reports of ABC, New York TV and other media. You are the guardians of fairness and the embodiment of justice. The Statue of Liberty is proud of you..."< br>
Li Dongling flattered a few words to ABC TV station. Anyway, there is no money for flattery, but if you really believe this, then whoever believes it will have your brains wet. If you really believe the reports of ABC and other TV stations, they will probably be betrayed. I still have to help count the money.
After hearing this, Gary Hansen just smiled. He also had some power and connections within the ABC TV station, and had access to some internal information. From those internal information, Gary Hansen could know that the man in front of him was definitely not It's as simple as the media reports.
With one move, Microsoft almost faced an antitrust lawsuit and became a mortal enemy of the entire computer hardware industry.
Looking at the current situation of Tanglin High-tech, in a few years, the annual revenue has exceeded 6 billion US dollars. In America, he is also a person who can be the guest of the governor of a state. How could such a person be as simple as the New York TV station reported back then? !
Gary Hansen interviewed the team and first took pictures of the Himalayan Silicon Valley office. Then the interview location was placed in an office by the window, where you can see part of the Silicon Valley street view.
Gary Hansen conducted interviews with Yao Luoying, Zhou Hualiang and others, but the time was not long. Although Yao Luoying is the head of Feiyan Technology, the parent company of Himalaya Radio, Zhou Hualiang is the head of Himalaya Radio in America. The actual controller, but according to the information obtained from Gary Hansen, the most important person on the Himalayan website is Li Dongling.
Li Dongling is also Gary Hansen's main interviewer this time. "Li, you are the founder of the Himalaya website. How did you think of establishing such a company..."
"Ximalaya, is the general manager of Feiyan Technology , Zhou Hualiang, Lu Kui, Justin and everyone else, they built it together!"
Before he finished speaking, Li Dongling said directly, Gary Hansen smiled when he heard this, and he felt it! The difference between inland and America.
In America, under normal circumstances, they will never say anything about taking credit. They will try their best to take credit, just like Edison, who registered all his company's inventions in his name. , not allowing a second genius to appear.
America and Silicon Valley are prone to the emergence of "gods". Yahoo is doing the same thing now, desperately trying to elevate Yang Zhiyuan and Filo to the altar, as well as future Jobs and Musk. The outside world only knows these gods on the surface, but they don’t know the geniuses behind Yahoo, Apple, Tesla, etc.
The founders of these companies, or the board of directors and management, usually do not allow geniuses other than the founders to emerge and affect their authority and influence.
This approach, of course, has advantages and disadvantages. The good thing is that it can quickly increase the company's popularity by relying on the founder's popularity, it can obtain a large amount of traffic, save advertising fees, and the effect is outstanding.
The bad thing is that God cannot fall. Once God is bound to a company, once God falls, the upper limit and ceiling of the company will also appear. There, the successor will never be able to break through this ceiling, and the genius who wants to stand out will not choose to live in the shadow of God.
After all, who likes to be cannon fodder, doing all the dirty work like a cow and a horse, but the fame and fortune belong to others, what genius would be willing to do that.
"Then, why do you want to launch Himalayan Internet Radio?!" Gary Hansen changed the question.
"The main business of Feiyan Technology when it was founded was mini radios, including the Dolphin multifunctional emergency radio, which was also produced by Feiyan Technology!"
"Oh!"
Gary Hansen He let out an exclamation. This time he was really surprised. Every American who had experienced the hurricane in New Orleans knew the name of the Dolphin radio. Gary Hansen also had a Dolphin at home, although he kept it in the basement to eat ashes. , but I didn’t dare to throw it away. The Dolphin multifunctional emergency radio is sold by many agents in America. The brand is well-known, but the developer Feiyan Technology is not very well-known. Only people in the industry know a little about it.
Li Dongling continued, "After investigation by Feiyan Technology, although its users are still there, the radio market is declining rapidly!
The launch of Himalayan Radio by Feiyan Technology is not to replace traditional radio stations. On the contrary, it is to use the Internet to make more people pay attention to the radio industry. After all, there is no dead media, only dead media! "
Gary Hansen read Li Dongling's last words, raised his head and looked at Li Dongling, "Li, you are saying that Himalayan Radio is going to change the radio industry! ”
“Not talking about changes, just a little “try”! ”
Li Dongling did not make any boasts. At present, Himalayan Radio still needs offline traditional media. Li Dongling is not willing to offend the entire industry. After all, he still expects them to make money for Himalayan Radio.
“Traditional radio programs are becoming less attractive to users, the number of radio stations is disappearing, practitioners are also changing careers, and radio sales are also sluggish!
This is not a threat, this is a fact that is happening. The launch of Himalayan Internet Radio is also an attempt by Feiyan Technology.
This is not only an attempt in the Internet, radio stations, and radio industries, but also an attempt for users, so that more people can let the world hear their voices! "
"Like Jolly Kings? "The first thing Gary Hansen thought of was the recent uproar in America, which has caused unrest in many industries such as academia, sports, aerospace, and education.
Li Dongling stretched out his hand and waved it a few times. He said with a serious face, "There are some controversies about Qiao Li, and his remarks have caused some controversy, but when he does not violate federal laws, he has the right to speak. Everyone who enters Himalayan Radio has the right to speak. in this way!
In fact, it is not just Qiao Li. Currently, there are more than 271 people who have entered the podcast program established by Himalaya. They have made their names and talents known to more people through their podcast program on Himalaya Radio.
Especially some of them, like Logan, Toni, Haynum, and Carlos, have already realized their ideals.
Rogen has become the host of NBC TV, Hynum has signed an agreement with a record company and will release his first album, and Carlos is also negotiating with a publisher to publish poetry. ..."
Li Dongling cited these examples, "Ximalaya Radio hopes to give people who enter the platform an opportunity to showcase themselves. Of course, they can also get some income. Currently, Himalayan Radio podcasts earn There are already three people who have earned more than one million U.S. dollars, seven people who have earned more than $500,000, and another fourteen people who have earned more than ten thousand U.S. dollars.
The average advertising and sponsorship revenue of the radio stations that cooperated with Himalaya increased by 11.4%, and the revenue of some TV stations increased by more than 200%..."
Listening to the data listed by Li Dongling, Gary Hansen I couldn't help but feel excited. He is now considered a well-known state television reporter, but his annual income is only a few hundred thousand dollars, which is not low.
But what the heck, those "amateurs" from Himalaya Radio, who were not well-known at all, went to Himalaya Radio and became well-known football stars, public opinion trendsetters, TV hosts, released records, and published poems. , in one or two months, he made more than one million U.S. dollars in gold. Is this really justified?
This comparison made Gary Hansen a little bit sour. Li Dongling noticed the change in Gary Hansen's expression. Let alone him, it was obvious that the expressions of the interview team members behind him had changed. changed.
Jory Kings is just that, but Logan, Toni, Heinum, and Carlos were just passers-by before, but now they suddenly turned around.
For future generations, that is, everyone was tightening screws in the factory the day before, and a month later, the person at the workstation next to him suddenly became an Internet celebrity with millions of fans, and all the Cullinan fragments were collected , holding a tech-savvy little assistant with an internet celebrity face on his arm, followed by a bunch of younger guys who were riding high and low, asking if it was sour?
I am afraid that an idea came into my mind unconsciously. That car can drive on the Cullinan, why can't I? !
"Ximalaya Radio hopes to help more people realize their American dream with the help of it, and allow more people to enjoy the convenience and dividends brought by technology. This is the meaning of the existence of technology!
Everyone is Potential geniuses just lack a platform to show themselves, and Himalaya hopes to be that platform!"
Li Dongling drank another bowl of thick poisonous chicken soup, but he just didn't know that after it was released through ABC TV station! How many people can you win?
