Chapter 117 1% of Youku’s shares
Next, Li Mingyang began to assign tasks. Once the filming team was done, other things could be easily handled. He wanted to try to set up the Running Man filming team before the summer vacation. .
Then he started filming "Spy's House".
After the filming of "Spy's House" is completed, I will directly film Running Man.
Diaosi men......
Li Mingyang had to hold back and wait until the right opportunity to shoot again.
Last week, the heads of video websites such as Youku, Tudou, Ku6.com, LeTV, Sohu Video, Popcorn, Six Rooms, Baofeng Video, PPIive, and PPS were all invited to have tea. .
Then the bosses of video websites publicly announced "de-piracy" and "full legalization" in the media.
Did Lao Jia make money this time? You will definitely make money!
But if you want to make a lot, I guess it’s a bit hesitant...
Because these people are dog-eating-dog and frantically suing their opponents for infringement.
Among them, Sohu screamed the loudest, Iron Rooster really hated piracy.
While others are still making small fuss, Zhang Chaoyang is teaming up with Guanxi.com, YouPengPule and China Video Alliance, the three domestic new media copyright owners and publishers, to create the "China Online Video Anti-Piracy Alliance" !
Standing on the opposite side of all video websites, standing on the opposite side of all netizens.
Get ready to come to BoDa!
And the first thing he wants to do is Youku... with his former comrade and good friend, Lao Gu.
Lao Gu also seemed to know that Zhang Chaoyang wanted to mess with him, and he went abroad to find money a few days ago.
Before leaving, Lao Gu invited Li Mingyang to have a meal alone.
At noon that day, Lao Gu gave Li Mingyang an analysis of the future trend of the video website from the perspective of capital and zz.
After listening.
Li Mingyang knew that Youku could be the leader in the video industry, and it was true.
Lao Gu’s speculation about the next two years was basically consistent with Li Mingyang’s memory.
When enough copyrights are grabbed or not enough, each company will start to make its own products.
The demand for new dramas on the Internet is astonishingly large, and the original TV drama market is completely unable to meet the size of video websites.
Laogu really needs the exclusive rights to broadcast Diaosi Men 3 to complete Youku’s final sprint to the market. The conditions offered also shocked Li Mingyang and left him speechless.
Not money, but shares.
1% stake in Youku.
Alibaba did not complete the acquisition of Youku in one go, but divided it into many times, buying shares first and then acquiring it at a premium.
A little more than 80% of the shares were ultimately spent at US$4.5 billion, all in cash!
The 1 point given by Lao Gu was not given by Youku, but by him. No matter how additional issuance, he guaranteed it would be 1 point.
In other words, by the time Youku is acquired, he will have more than 56 million US dollars.
More than four hundred million! Deduct 20% personal tax for individual shareholders, as well as stamp duty.
I got more than 300 million yuan!
The conditions were so good that Li Mingyang couldn't believe it at all.
Is it a web drama?
I have to go back and think about it.
But Lao Gu didn’t give him any time to think about it. He made a phone call and Youku’s lawyers arrived, along with the law firm that Lao Gu had found for Li Mingyang.
Sign the contract today.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t want it...
The flower bouquet entertainment thing is settled.
Li Mingyang went back to school to meet up with Jing Tian. They went shopping first and then went to the hotel to have sex. In the evening, Jing Tian's assistant came and brought her a lot of scripts to choose from.
Li Mingyang went to the restaurant downstairs to attend a dinner.
The initiator of this dinner is Li Shanyou, the boss of Cool 6.
After Li Mingyang entered the room, he found that Mr. Li not only invited him, but also invited the bosses of many video websites, and even Wang Wei came.
Zhang Chaoyang is not here.
Now people in the video industry have labeled him a traitor.
Don’t look at the big bosses in the house. Now you are suing me and I am suing you. They are all like mortal enemies. When they get to the dinner table, they are all laughing and joking, hello, me, hello everyone.
During this dinner, Li Mingyang also saw Shanda Chen.
Looking at Lao Chen and Li Shanyou working together, Li Mingyang wanted to laugh, but he held it back and started playing Tai Chi with Wang Wei.
He remembered that Ku6 would be acquired by Shanda in 2009, that is, at the end of this year.
Later, Ku6 turned around and joined Sohu's anti-piracy alliance, and held three press conferences in a pretentious manner, announcing that it would delete uncopyrighted European and American film and television content, and even boasted that it would spend 300 million yuan to buy genuine content.
Then...no then, not long after he said these words, Chen Tianqiao discovered that Li Shanyou had been lying to him and underestimated the country's efforts to combat piracy.
The piracy dispute that he once thought was insignificant became the last straw that broke his faith.
The acquisition was completed less than a month ago!
Nine departments including the External Publicity Office jointly launched the ‘Operation Sword Online’ to combat online piracy and infringement, which can be called the most severe and largest piracy sanctions in history.
Chen Tianqiao, who only wants to do general entertainment and does not want to make games.
After experiencing all kinds of beatings, I mustered up the last courage to enter the film and television industry again.
However, they caught up with the Jianwang operation. They had just acquired Ku6 and were about to face sky-high compensation.
I haven’t started making money yet, and I have to pay compensation that is higher than the purchase price of Cool 6.
Chen Tianqiao completely lost his spirit and just wanted to live a good life.
"Director Li, when are you going to take pictures of this man wearing silk clothes?" Mr. Chen asked as he was still drinking.
"Zhang Chaoyang..."
"Ignore him. Since I am here, there will be nothing wrong with him." Lao Chen said confidently.
Well, although Iron Rooster is very stingy, your luck is not ordinary!
Go back and wait to be beaten and cry.
"I salute Mr. Chen." Li Mingyang stood up and saluted Mr. Chen. Lao Chen didn't drink, waved his hand, and asked again.
Li Mingyang put the glass down and asked: "When do you think the filming will be completed? I listen to you."
"Of course the sooner the better. ."
"Who owns the copyright?"
"Of course it's Shanda."
Li Mingyang smiled, "The producer just has the copyright, how much money is Mr. Chen prepared to pay?"
Mr. Chen stretched out two fingers and said with a smile: "Two Ten million, this is not a production fund, but money given to you. If you agree, we will sign the contract today.”
Shangda’s Lao Chen has never been a stingy person, on the contrary, he is generous and generous. , so generous that people are speechless.
The prototype of pan-entertainment came from Shanda Chen Tianqiao.
However, Lao Chen was not even qualified to be educated in domestic entertainment, so he was eliminated early.
All your efforts will ultimately benefit others.
Although Shanda failed, Lao Chen's vision was correct, and his move was shocking to those above him.
Because it is too shocking.
All IPTV projects were stopped by the above document, and the compensation was at least 10 billion, more than 10 billion in 2006... The compensation made Lao Chen almost lose his temper.
Later, he refused to give up and acquired Ku6. Before it started to develop, due to copyright issues, he had to pay hundreds of millions in compensation. Chen Tianqiao, who had gone through many hardships and could not see the light of day, was completely disheartened. He liquidated his assets and went to work as a farmer in Laomei. .
Li Mingyang glanced at the bosses present, his face looked a little strange.
Because the copyright was agreed upon at the time to be owned by Baidu and Youth Light, and each participating company had one year of online broadcast rights.
Ku Liu’s Mr. Li probably didn’t expect Lao Chen to be so domineering and was stunned.
Before Li Mingyang could say anything, Gong Yu from Baidu stood up and toasted Mr. Chen, "Mr. Chen's actions are extraordinary. Come and pay tribute to Mr. Chen. In the future, we may have to pay tribute to Mr. Chen." I rely on Mr. Chen to give me food.”
"Haha!" Lao Chen picked up the wine glass and said proudly: "Wherever, wherever, you will kill me!"
He was modest in his mouth and smiled very happily on his face.
Others also laughed happily.
A group of smiling tigers, the video industry has developed to this day, and it can survive until now. Who is sitting at this dinner table who has not escaped death...
The most inconspicuous boss of Six Rooms, Liu Yan.
I will do much better in the future than most of the people here.
Last year, this guy couldn't hold it.
Bandwidth is burned out, but advertising fees are not earned.
A creditor who sold bandwidth came to visit, but Liu Yan didn’t run away.
Want money? No, you want to sue? Please do so.
Haidian Court often summons Liu Yan, and he is always on call.
The judge's attitude is very clear. It is okay to demand debts, but not to take people's lives.
After surviving this disaster, this guy changed his mind and found a new way to start a live broadcast show.
Make money as an otaku.
Every time the otakus give a reward to their beloved goddess, 40% of it goes into Liu Jianfang’s pocket.
When thousands of planes flew out of the live broadcast room in one second, he finally realized it.
Compared with video websites, it is more reliable to do shows.
This simple and crude method of monetization has far-reaching influence, and every tiger and fighting fish has copied it.
The price of an airplane in the live broadcast room is 100 yuan, and the picture is a picture of the airplane found online. The picture of the airplane will not be like Station A, where someone comes to ask to delete the pirated version.
Zero cost and zero risk, you can earn tens of thousands of dollars in just a few seconds.
This speed of grabbing money is the same as burning money before, which is great.
Later, Liu Yan was also a rare success in the video industry and retired. The company was acquired by Songcheng at a premium of 68 times. His net worth increased 68 times overnight and his net worth exceeded 1.6 billion.
On the other hand, Wang Wei, who is sitting next to him, is now the boss of the video industry. He was kicked out by Youku and went to work in animation. After many years of work, the company was on the verge of bankruptcy many times. Finally, two small hits were released, White Snake and Chang'an is thirty thousand miles away.
A large group of people 'flattered' Lao Chen, and Lao Chen drank too much in his complacency.
Li Mingyang didn't do anything, and everyone took care of Lao Chen.
Then Lao Yu smiled lightly, enthusiastically pulled Li Mingyang out, and talked about Baidu's ambitions, Baidu's strength, and his appreciation for him.
Lao Yu talks to himself.
Li Mingyang is thinking about how to get rid of Baidu and those video websites to get 1% of Youku.
It’s easy for everyone else to say that most of the people here today will be eliminated in the future.
Lao Jia’s heart is not in the hanging silk man, everyone has it, who is he selling it to!
Lao Chen can't even survive the New Year and is about to quit.
Wang Wei has not divorced his wife yet, but he will soon.
Several others eventually sold themselves out.
The two giants, Baidu and Sohu, are in the most trouble.
"Director Li, I heard that Lao Gu looked for you when he left?" Lao Yu suddenly smiled.
"You are quite well-informed." Li Mingyang did not deny it. He had seen a lot of people recently.
"Don't be in a hurry to go back. I've prepared some desserts after the meal. How about showing off?"
"It can't be a woman, I have someone."
< br>"Haha! Of course not. Director Li is handsome and talented, how can he be short of women?" Lao Yu smiled mysteriously, "You will definitely like it."
Li Mingyang thought for a while, He nodded in agreement.
