Chapter 376 Chen Guangxia’s Second Entrepreneurship
Director Meng looked at Chen Guangxia’s expression as if he was joking, and said helplessly: “No, Mr. Chen, there are regulations in this regard, games cannot be shown on TV Advertising. "
" Rules are dead, people are alive." Chen Guangxia smiled and said meaningfully, "That's right, Director Meng."
"... ..." Director Meng's mouth twitched, "No, this is really not okay, this is CCTV's bottom line."
Director Meng paused for a few seconds and emphasized again, "Bottom line!"< br>
"We can add more money." Chen Guangxia said casually with a smile, "How much is needed?"
Director Meng shook his head violently, "No, this is really not a question of money."
"You ask I can help you with all the other conditions, but this one really doesn’t work.” Chen Guangxia frowned and asked.
“That’s really not possible!” Director Meng replied firmly.
"If it doesn't work, forget it." Chen Guangxia felt a little regretful, and then he suddenly asked, "If other online games were to be advertised, would they reject it?"
"That's for sure." Director Meng replied matter-of-factly. He said, "No one can do it, no one is an exception."
Chen Guangxia said goodbye to Director Meng without saying anything else.
As soon as Hao Zhiqiang saw that Chen Guangxia was leaving, he also hurriedly left. He didn't want to stay and talk nonsense with Director Meng.
Otherwise, Director Meng will definitely persuade him to transfer those two places.
This is absolutely not okay!
Hao Zhiqiang had just walked to his car in the parking lot when he suddenly heard someone calling him. When he turned around, he saw Chen Guangxia standing not far away, looking at him with a smile.
"Hey, Mr. Chen, are you looking for a car?" Although Hao Zhiqiang said so, he actually knew in his heart that Chen Guangxia must have something to do with him.
"I'm specially waiting for Director Hao." Chen Guangxia walked up, took out the cigarette case from his pocket, shook out one and handed it to Hao Zhiqiang.
Hao Zhiqiang took the cigarette without lighting it, but asked tentatively: "Is something wrong?"
"I have something to trouble Director Hao."
"Private matter or business?"
"Of course it is business." Chen Guangxia said with a smile, "It's about the qualifications for sponsors of the 2008 Olympic Games. "
"Oh, that's it." Hao Zhiqiang breathed a sigh of relief. This is purely business.
Because he is not qualified to make the decision on this kind of thing, but it is okay to send a message and get some information.
"What do you want to ask, Mr. Chen?" Hao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "As long as you don't break the rules, I will tell you everything."
"You have to bid for the qualification to be an Internet content sponsor for the 2008 Olympic Games. Currently, Sina, NetEase, Sohu, and Penguin are interested in bidding. There are not many bidders.”
Chen Guangxia nodded, “Director Hao, which one do you think has a better chance of winning?” ?"
"How do I know this?" Hao Zhiqiang said awkwardly, "I'm not responsible for this, and the bid documents from these companies haven't been submitted."
"But. It is said that the asking price is very high, and it can’t be won without one or two hundred million.”
"This is the first Internet sponsor since the Olympic Games. The competition should be fierce, but there are only a few companies that are qualified and capable."
"What? Mr. Chen is interested?"
"No." Chen Guangxia smiled, "It's the campus network that is interested."
"Campus network." Hao Zhiqiang suddenly became interested, "Is this what Mr. Qin meant?"
< br>“Campus Network has cooperated with us before. The last Global International Marathon was a success and the leaders were very impressed.”
"If the campus network comes to bid, it will definitely be possible, and we can give it priority."
Chen Guangxia hesitated for a moment, "Director Hao, I can't make the decision on this matter. I just want to inquire about it for Mr. Qin. "
"When will the bidding start?"
"Is it soon?" Hao Zhiqiang thought for a moment, feeling a little unsure, "I'll inquire about it tomorrow and give you a confirmation. "
"Excuse me, Director Hao." Chen Guangxia took out a lighter and lit a cigarette for Hao Zhiqiang.
"It's a small thing, it's a small thing." Hao Zhiqiang smiled.
……
Campus network, in the CEO’s office.
Qin Shaoyan sat on the boss's chair and listened quietly to Chen Guangxia's explanation of today's wine game. He finally nodded, "Thank you, Senior Brother Chen."
"This is nothing, it's just It's just a matter of passing a message and socializing, it's not hard work at all." Chen Guangxia was in high spirits, and his whole body was in high spirits, sweeping away the decadence of the past.
Qin Shaoyan thought for a while and began to ask for details, "That Director Meng said no? Not even if you add more money?"
"That's what he said, saying that this is the bottom line, not a question of money." Chen Guangxia thought for a while , "I don't think he is perfunctory, nor does he want to bargain. It seems that it really can't be done."
"After all, the country has issued many regulations before, especially TV stations that are not allowed to broadcast anything related to games. Relevant content. "
On April 21, 2004, Radio and Television issued the "Notice on Prohibiting the Broadcast of Computer Online Game Programs" regarding the issue of computer online game programs, requiring radio and television broadcasters at all levels to Computer and online game columns are strictly prohibited, and computer and online game programs are not allowed to be broadcast.
Chen Guangxia originally worked in the gaming industry, and he also knew about this notice.
As soon as this notice came out, it dealt a heavy blow to domestic stand-alone games, and domestic game manufacturers suddenly felt a cold wind.
This has also accelerated the shift of stand-alone game manufacturers to online games.
Qin Shaoyan suddenly laughed, "Bottom line, hehe, bottom line."
He didn't understand the bottom line before, but later he understood it. The bottom line is meant to be broken.
Games are indeed not allowed to be advertised on TV stations, especially CCTV.
However, the online game "Zhengtu" appeared on TV in a majestic manner.
A woman kept laughing and laughing at the laptop, and then added a slogan, "Zhengtu Network, Network Zhengtu".
Strictly speaking, this advertisement is a side note and does not mention online games.
But in fact, this is advertising for the online game "Zhengtu".
It’s so shameless.
However, Qin Shaoyan didn't care about this matter. He was able to advertise because he had strong connections.
It is actually very useless to advertise online games on TV.
Perhaps Boss Shi has a path to success and feels that he can continue to brainwash and promote the audience through magical advertisements.
This trick is okay for health care products, but not for online games.
The real promotion battlefield for online games is online advertising and offline Internet cafes.
Qin Shaoyan, on the other hand, focused on Internet cafes and asked Zhou Yuan's local promotion team to visit Internet cafes one by one.
Let the game client be installed on every computer in the Internet cafe, go to the Internet cafe to put out promotional posters and materials, and talk to the Internet cafe owners one by one about the point card distribution franchise.
Before the official release of Boss Shi’s online game masterpiece "Zhengtu", he grabbed all the machines in Internet cafes, and then used various marketing methods.
Use the countryside to surround the city and kill your opponents one by one.
Of course, the quality of the game is still important. The key is whether the game is fun and whether the players enjoy it.
Qin Shaoyan quickly flashed several plans in his mind, wrote a few words in his notebook, and then looked up at Chen Guangxia.
“Brother Chen, where is Director Hao?”
“Director Hao didn’t have any specific information. He only said that there were several Internet companies that wanted to bid. Penguin also wants to try these three major portals: Sina, Sohu, and NetEase." Chen Guangxia thought for a while and added, "What he said is that there is no one or two billion that he can't get." "No matter how specific the information is, he will ask for it tomorrow. Go find out and tell me."
"One or two hundred million." Qin Shaoyan sighed, "I'm afraid it's more than one or two hundred million."
Sohu won the Internet content service sponsor of the 2008 Olympic Games for US$30 million.
According to the agreement, as an Internet content service sponsor, Sohu will provide content for the 2008 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee, the Chinese Olympic Committee, and for those participating in the Turin 2006 and BJ 2008 Olympic Games. China Sports Delegation provides official Internet content services.
Thirty million dollars.
That’s almost 250 million RMB, which is indeed a lot of money.
Qin Shaoyan frowned and began to think about it. Should he compete with Sohu?
When Chen Guangxia saw Mr. Qin silent and deep in thought, he didn't dare to disturb him, so he just sat on the sofa and drank tea without a sip.
After a while, Qin Shaoyan raised his head, "Oh, I was distracted just now. Brother Chen, where were we talking about?"
"Speaking of Director Hao, I will go find out the news tomorrow. Chen Guangxia said quickly.
"Well, please keep a close eye on this matter, Senior Brother Chen, and communicate more with Director Hao. He is quite interesting." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile.
"Director Hao is indeed pretty good." Chen Guangxia also laughed, at least he is much better than Director Meng.
Thinking of this, Chen Guangxia hesitated, "Mr. Qin, do you really want to agree to Director Meng?"
That's thirty-five places.
The first phase of the "International College Summer Camp" only had thirty student representatives. Even if the number was increased to fifty in the second phase, Director Meng would have to take away thirty-five positions.
Although Director Meng is willing to increase the money, Chen Guangxia feels that this step is too big, even if it is fifteen.
Qin Shaoyan sighed, "Senior Brother Chen, you can't help yourself in the world."
If you want to make a difference in the field of culture and entertainment, you have to deal with these cultural compradors first.
Half a million dollars for a pit seems like a lot of money, but in Qin Shaoyan's eyes, it is nothing, not even a hair on Jiu Niu's body.
But there is a big difference between charging money and not charging money. Charging more and charging less is another matter.
“The International Summer Camp for College Students is a very good card. If you use it well, you can do a lot of things.” Qin Shao said earnestly, “The summer camp has rich and colorful content, and it is not just about traveling to the mountains and rivers. That would be lost. The significance of summer camps.”
“American parents must also hope that we can come up with some new ideas. After all, Americans are tired of street fundraising and picking up trash on the beach.”
< br>
"The United Nations Headquarters Debate Competition and Forum Summit are indeed good, but they fall apart if they are too formal."
"So we have to come up with new tricks."
Chen Guangxia was a little curious, " For example? "
"How about going to Antarctica for scientific research?" Qin Shaoyan said excitedly, "Let the students care about the ecological environment of Antarctica, go see the penguins, and pay attention to the hole in the ozone layer. ”
“ Or go on an adventure in the Amazon jungle? Pick up trash on Mount Everest? ”
"Isn't it much better than the street shows in the United States?"
"Huh?" Chen Guangxia's eyes lit up, "This is a good idea. It's interesting just listening to it, but is it a bit risky to go to the virgin forest?"< br>
"It doesn't matter, it's just a publicity stunt. It's not that the students will actually go to the virgin forest. Then it will be fine." Qin Shaoyan waved his hands and said with a smile, "Once you have an idea, the rest is how to do it. Just perfecting the details.”
“The Antarctic scientific expedition can be done. If you are afraid of risks, let the summer camp students fly to Argentina first, and then take a boat to the Antarctic scientific research station. This is much safer. You don’t even need to go to the Antarctic, just wander around.”
While talking, Qin Shaoyan was thinking of various ideas, anyway, it was a change from the rhythm of traveling around various cities in the first issue. , it all becomes an adventure.
Don’t you want to go gold plating?
Then I’ll give you a hard time, pay the money and get on the bus, and there will be no refunds.
Just use their money to subsidize the students who were actually selected, killing two birds with one stone.
As for the dissatisfaction of students’ parents?
This is a project decided by parents of American students. Even the future political elites have no complaints at all. How dare you have any objections?
Do you still want to let your children go to the White House, Capitol Hill, or get a photo with the president?
Oh, there is an additional fee for taking a photo with the president. This is another service.
Chen Guangxia also became excited and slapped his thigh, "This is very exciting! In the summer here in Antarctica, it is polar night, and we can still see the aurora."
Qin Shaoyan smiled. Nodding, "There is indeed something going on, is Senior Brother Chen interested?"
"Of course I am." Chen Guangxia said happily, "This thing is much more interesting than making a video website."
"Mr. Qin, I found that the market for quality education is huge, and I think we can do something in this area."
"Huh?" Qin Shaoyan was stunned, a little surprised, "Senior Brother Chen wants to do something Education and training?"
"Just a preliminary idea," Chen Guangxia said excitedly, "I think this industry has great potential!"
"What do you think of Internet online education? Mr. Qin?”
“Ah.” Qin Shaoyan smiled a little and nodded perfunctorily, “Well, it’s indeed a good idea.”
"Yeah, I think so too." Chen Guangxia slapped his thigh, feeling that he had found a new track.
“Since Brother Chen wants to start a business again, I have nothing to do to help.” Qin Shaoyan said with emotion, “Let’s do this, the International College Student Summer Camp will be outsourced to you, and you will be fully responsible. Put your name on the campus network."
"Huh?" Chen Guangxia was stunned and couldn't believe it. "Mr. Qin, are you serious?"
"Of course it is true. He said with a smile, "Summer camp is an activity that involves a lot of contact with the education industry. You can take this opportunity to get to know more people."
Chen Guangxia stood up excitedly and wanted to give Qin Shaoyan a kiss. He was a little choked when he spoke, " Thank you Mr. Qin!”
"From now on, if you are told, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Qin Shaoyan really helped Chen Guangxia a lot.
If you want to start a business, you need to rely on connections and money.
It is difficult to achieve anything just by having money. On the contrary, if you have no money but have connections, it will be much easier to start a business, and your connections can even help you make money.
Now Chen Guangxia has money, but no connections.
Qin Shaoyan was equivalent to giving him the opportunity to get to know the education network, and the rest was up to Chen Guangxia himself.
Chen Guangxia felt for a moment that Mr. Qin was really a noble person who started his own business.
Before, I helped you attract investments, but now you help me find connections. Is there any better friend than this?
Qin Shaoyan was even more happy that Chen Guangxia took over the job, which was equivalent to taking the blame.
If there are any problems at the summer camp in the future, Director Meng will have no choice but to go to Chen Guangxia and have nothing to do with Qin Shaoyan.
Because before 2008, Qin Shaoyan was going to complete the separation from Facebook.
The summer camp activity will definitely not be able to be held by then, or the content will be greatly reduced, which will definitely cause dissatisfaction among parents who want to take advantage of it.
Now that Chen Guangxia has taken the initiative to take over, he has really helped Qin Shaoyan solve a problem.
Finally, Chen Guangxia walked out of Qin Shaoyan's office with tears of gratitude and left happily.
The employees of the campus network felt very horrified and confused when they saw this scene.
Many people know Chen Guangxia, and they also know the deeds of the former Mr. Chen.
The expelled Mr. Qin’s right-hand man not only often appeared in Mr. Qin’s office, but also seemed to have no resentment at all, as if he was quite grateful to Mr. Qin.
How did Mr. Qin do this?
