Chapter 164 Investing in Live Broadcast Websites
Seeing the official announcement of Shinhwa Entertainment, the same question also arose in the minds of everyone in the industry -
Bai Di?
Lin Yiyi?
Two-dimensional music?
The painting style doesn’t seem to match.
“Gossip may not be true. I heard that Lin Yiyi’s new song was originally written by Wei Qianxiang, but in the end I found that the song written by Bai Di was better, so I used Bai Di’s song.”
“I know it’s true at first glance, it’s fake news!”
“If this news is true, doesn’t it mean that Emperor Bai defeated Wei Qianxiang?”
"My friend is a small leader of Shinhwa Entertainment. He confirmed that this is true news."
“Damn it, Bai Di is so stupid?”
“That can’t be said to be a defeat. Wei Qianxiang’s occasional attempt at the second dimension is just for fun. But even so, the other party is Qu Dad after all. I guess Bai Di’s song is indeed quite powerful.”
“Baidi understands two-dimensional music?”
“Baidi’s music style is very changeable, maybe he really understands the second dimension.”
“Don’t forget that no one thought before that Bai Di could also write rock music!”
“Besides, I heard that Bai Di is quite young. Everyone knows that the majority of 2D fans are young people.”
“It makes me quite curious.”
People in the industry thought that Bai Di could only write low-pitched songs. However, in the finals of "I Am a Singer", Bai Di wrote a very high-quality rock work for Zhang Xiyang, so no one dares to say Bai Di now. The emperor cannot create two-dimensional music.
…
November has not yet arrived, and industry insiders and Lin Yiyi’s fans have no answers for the time being.
After Lin Zhibai handed over "Song of Onion" to Shinhwa Entertainment, he didn't pay too much attention to it. He turned to Jiang Cheng and proposed the idea of opening a live broadcast section on the video website.
"live streaming?"
Jiang Cheng subconsciously said: "Did the boss also hear the news?"
Lin Zhibai was stunned, "What's the news?"
"Boss, have you ever heard of Liyu Video? This is the first website in Qinzhou that pioneered the barrage mode. This mode became very popular after it appeared about three years ago. Young people especially like this kind of barrage mode. Therefore, Liyu Video At one time, it accounted for nearly 20% of the video website share, but then the three major video websites directly copied this barrage mode, and Carp Video gradually became less popular..."
Jiang Cheng explained.
He then got to the point.
"The boss of Carp Video is called Li Yu. He recently wants to transform and turn Carp Video into a live broadcast website. He is looking for investment all over the world these days. However, the industry is not optimistic about this project and there are not many people who are interested. So when the boss talked about live broadcast, I thought you also heard about Li Yu’s idea of a live broadcast website..."
李鱼?
This was the first time Lin Zhibai had heard of this name, but he knew about Carp Video. After all, it was Blue Star who was the first to think of the barrage mode.
Do you want to be a live broadcast platform?
Lin Zhibai had a flash of inspiration.
Some vague memories of past lives come to mind.
In the past 16 years, Douyu received investment from giant institutions such as Tencent and Sequoia Capital. It became very popular after it was launched. However, that year, hundreds of live broadcast platforms seemed to have suddenly appeared at the same time, so it was criticized by the media. Call it the “first year of live streaming”.
And in Blue Star.
Live broadcasting has not yet emerged, but Li Yu is quite smart. He was the first to think of the video barrage mode and the first to think of building a live broadcast platform. He has a particularly keen business sense in this area. Can he be recruited to Kunpeng?
It is estimated to be a bit difficult.
This kind of Internet person who started his own business, made some achievements, and led the barrage culture must not be willing to be inferior to others.
But it doesn’t matter.
Since this is a person with ideas, Lin Zhibai can definitely invest in his live broadcast platform project. After all, Kunpeng does not have the energy to build a live broadcast website now.
Create a live broadcast channel directly on Kunpeng Video?
This method is certainly feasible, but it is not easy to do. Direct investment in Li Yu may be simpler and more direct.
Thinking of this.
Lin Zhibai said: "Meet this Li Yu and talk about investment. I am very interested in his project."
"boss!"
Jiang Cheng actually wanted to cry at this moment, "You finally remembered that we, Kunpeng Investment, are essentially an investment company!"
Lin Zhibai: “…”
Jiang Cheng thought for a while and said: "I can't say clearly about the prospects of this live broadcast project. Since the boss is interested, we will give it a try. Most people in the circle are not interested anyway, but I think there may be some smoke bombs in it. Now that this project has spread, it shows that some people are interested, which means we may have competitors."
“It doesn’t matter, just feel it out first.”
Lin Zhibai still doesn’t know what the main direction of Li Yu’s live broadcast platform is.
"OK."
Jiang Cheng went to do it immediately, and he met Li Yu that night.
When Lin Zhibai was about to sleep, Jiang Cheng called again, "Li Yu's live broadcast platform mainly focuses on two directions, one is game live broadcast, and the other is talent live broadcast. He is quite attentive to me, but this guy The ambition is not small, the cost is as high as one billion, he spent 500 to 600 million himself, and the remaining 4 to 5 billion is expected to be shared by someone."
“How much money do we have on our books?”
“It’s about 330 million, but the Li Yu project already has an investor.”
"who?"
“Our old acquaintance.”
Jiang Cheng said in a strange tone: "Su Chan."
Lin Zhibai was a little surprised. He didn't expect that besides himself, Su Chan would also be interested in this project. "How much did she invest?"
“She paid 100 million.”
“Then we will pay about 300 million.”
Lin Zhibai narrowed his eyes, "You can do it specifically."
Jiang Cheng was startled, "Are we investing all the money on our books? The boss is so optimistic about this project?"
“It’s one thing to be optimistic about this project.”
Lin Zhibai explained: "On the other hand, I will live broadcast on this platform as Chu Ci."
"But…"
“I know Chu Ci can’t show his face, so you need to communicate with Li Yu, and we make an image similar to a virtual idol.”
“The boss wants to become a virtual idol like 011?”
The abbreviation of Lin Yiyi is 011, which is what some fans will call her.
“Put on a layer of virtual skin and make money?” Jiang Cheng almost blurted out this sentence. “What is money trapping?”
Lin Zhibai said dissatisfied: "I am clearly giving back to the fans!"
The biggest problem with Chu Ci's vest is that Lin Zhibai's identity cannot be revealed.
It is clear that Chu Ci also has high commercial value, but because of this limitation, Lin Zhibai was unable to realize it.
What kind of announcement?
What kind of endorsement?
What kind of music festival is it?
Chu Ci was unable to participate at all.
Normal singers can make a lot of money by performing acupuncture.
But if the skin is used for live broadcast, then Chu Ci's skin will have commercial value, and it will also have attributes similar to that of a virtual idol.
As for whether live broadcasts without showing your face can be popular?
In the previous life, Xiaozhi, Xiao Tuantuan and others were still popular without showing their faces. Faces are not the most important. What is important is whether the content can attract the audience.
Jiang Cheng is not stupid, and he quickly figured out the reason.
“What about the live content?”
“Let’s focus on singing.”
Lin Zhibai feels that he can be a good-looking anchor, but who prevents him from showing his face? It can only rely on talent.
“It seems like there’s no problem.”
“I have a question, is Su Chan investing in the name of Tianguang?”
“No, in her own name.”
“No wonder.”
If Tianguang is optimistic about this project, it is impossible to invest only 100 million.
But I didn’t expect Su Chan to be able to spend 100 million on her own, which is quite rich.
They are all of the same generation. Anyway, Lin Zhibai's brother and sister can't come up with 100 million in funds together.
Compared to the money, what Lin Zhibai admired more was Su Chan's vision. He had past life memory aids, but the other party did not. He made decisions based almost purely on business sense and personal judgment.
After hanging up the phone.
Lin Zhibai thought for a while, "Live streaming was developed in the previous life in one or six years. In this life, Blue Star only had live broadcasting in 2001. This is because Blue Star's technological development level is higher than that of Earth." Much higher.”
In addition to live broadcast…
What other business opportunities are there that the Earth has already achieved but Blue Star has not yet appeared?
Lin Zhibai tried to recall more information from his past life, but unfortunately most of the memories he awakened were blurry, and not many of them were valuable.
Perhaps when live streaming and other similar business opportunities arise, some memories can be stimulated.
anyway.
Even if new business opportunities arise now, Lin Zhibai has no money to participate, so he should develop Kunpeng's business fundamentals first.
Compared to business opportunities that arise by chance, developing Kunpeng's basic base can also become Lin Zhibai's money printing machine. How can it be done without money if the goal is to be a big three?
Thinking of this.
Lin Zhibai continued to write the script of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
About the play "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", there have been many versions in the past.
The version written by Lin Zhibai is the final version after systematically integrating the advantages of multiple TV series versions in the previous life.
"The good thing is that when I died in my previous life, fairy tale dramas were rampant. The market for martial arts dramas was already very weak, but the market for Blue Star's martial arts dramas is still huge. The script of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is very important to this world. For martial arts dramas, it should be considered a dimensionality reduction blow."
Um?
What does dimensionality reduction attack mean?
It should be some memory fragments from the previous life, right?
Looks like it comes from some particularly powerful science fiction novel?
Lin Zhibai occasionally had some inexplicable past life memory fragments pop up, but he didn’t pay too much attention to them and continued to code.
A few days later.
Jiang Cheng told Lin Zhibai that the investment was already in place.
Li Yu’s live broadcast platform is called Liyu Live.
The shareholder structure of Liyu Live is very simple. The boss is Li Yu himself, who holds 55% of the shares.
Su Chan accounted for ten percent.
Kunpeng holds 35% of the capital.
Logically speaking, Kunpeng can only hold 30%, but Kunpeng's reputation, goodwill, and Chu Ci will be broadcast live on this website and several other conditions were attached, so Jiang Cheng got an additional 5% of the shares.
"The website will probably be launched next month. Based on user feedback, adjustments will be made one after another. The main source of income currently determined should be live broadcast reward sharing and advertising..."
Jiang Cheng sent Lin Zhibai a piece of information.
Lin Zhibai looked at it and some memories appeared in his mind. He thought about it and simply wrote a plan.
"Fish Ball…"
“Shark fin…”
"Rocket…"
"airplane…"
“Member value-added services…”
“Pay to watch live teaching…”
“Apply a card for the anchor and provide fan ranking…”
These are the successful models of live broadcast platforms in previous lives, which can save Liyu Live Broadcast from many detours. After all, Lin Zhibai will also be one of the bosses of the live broadcast platform in the future, so he must plan carefully.
Finished writing.
Hand it over to Jiangcheng.
Lin Zhibai reminded: "These plans are all provided by Kunpeng. Just think of them as the work of Kunpeng's planner. You can use these to sign a supplementary agreement with him and find a way to get Li Yu to give up some more shares."
Lin Zhibai has no intention of becoming the big boss of Liyu Live.
But of course you have to get as many shares as possible.
Li Yu, the boss, probably won't give in too much, but if Jiangcheng can fight for it, let's fight for it.

ps: Thank you [Xia Ge 112233] for being the leader of the boss for the reward. Thank you boss. I wish the boss a bright future and arrange for more updates as soon as possible!
