Reborn since 1993

Chapter 460 If you don’t eat the toast, you will be punished by drinking wine

Zhong Lifei on the other end of the phone was breathing noticeably heavier. If the number of registered users of Tianya.com could really exceed one million, he couldn't imagine what the scene would be like.

As a person in the traditional media industry, his feeling on Tianya these days is that the speed of Internet updates and iterations, as well as the speed of feedback, are much faster than traditional paper media.

Just like activities like naming the giant panda and interviewing Ronaldo, if we follow the traditional way and ask users to send letters, it is estimated that after a few months, the people who wrote the letters will have forgotten about it.

But on the Internet, communication is almost real-time and feedback can be obtained instantly, which is many times faster than traditional paper media.

If the number of Internet users exceeds one million someday, then if football club magazines move their magazines to the Internet, their influence may be even greater than it is now.

But Zhong Lifei still had doubts, "If the football club magazine is put on the Internet, how will the magazine make a profit?"

Today, the concept of the Internet is still in its infancy, let alone profitability. Internet advertising, online payments, etc. are still illusory things.

"As long as there are enough Internet users, there will be enough channels for monetization. On the website, you can place advertisements for teams, stars, and sports goods dealers, hold offline events, and even invest in the development of sports games or go public for financing.

In the world of the Internet, everything is possible! ”

Li Dongling opened up a world that Zhong Lifei had never imagined. He had never thought that he could play like this and even go public to make money.

These were things that Zhong Lifei had never thought of. Although they seemed a little unreliable, Li Dongling pointed out a path for him that he had never thought of before.

In comparison, football club magazines now make money by selling magazines, but due to piracy and fierce competition from peers, the sales of football club magazines have been on a downward trend.

“Football club magazines can launch online versions of their magazines, and Tianya.com can help them build websites.

Tianya.com can invest in 50% of the equity of this website and be responsible for technology, operation, publicity and other aspects. The football club magazine only needs to provide content, just like the current cooperation between the football club magazine and Tianya.com!
In addition, if necessary in the future, Tianya.com can provide the necessary venture capital for the football club magazine website.

This is the only chance for Football Club Magazine to surpass those established sports media abroad. Who knows, in the future, Football Club Magazine may even get the Internet broadcasting rights for leagues such as A, Serie A, and Ligue 1!"

Li Dongling painted another big picture for Zhong Lifei. When Zhong Lifei heard what Li Dongling said, even though he was knowledgeable, he still couldn't help but feel his heart beating fast.

It’s hard to say whether what Li Dongling said can be realized, but it sounds really tempting. Although it seems difficult to achieve, but... what if?
"I can't think of a reason to refuse!"

Zhong Lifei laughed helplessly and said that Li Dongling had stated the conditions to such an extent that there was actually no room for him to refuse.

There is a saying that goes, "If you don't accept a toast, you will be punished." If Zhong Lifei does not agree to this condition, I'm afraid Li Dongling will find a sports magazine that is willing to agree to the conditions. In the future, the football club magazine will no longer be able to get any resources from Dongling Hi-Tech.

The reason why Li Dongling is so supportive of the football club magazine is that, on the one hand, it is indeed an opportunity. After the advent of the Internet era, earth-shaking changes have taken place in many industries.

The media industry, in particular, has completely reshaped the global media landscape. In the era of self-media, everyone has the potential to become a hot news, and traditional media have lost their voice.

Football media, for example, are also undergoing transformation. Traditional football newspapers and magazines will have fewer and fewer buyers, and whoever occupies the football media field first may become the new sports media giant.

Li Dongling supports the transformation of Football Club Magazine for the sake of Tianya.com. Li Dongling definitely needs Tianya.com to enter the overseas market. If there is a Football Club Magazine to escort it, it will be much easier!
Not to mention entering the English-speaking market, at least Tianya.com is still trying to grab a piece of the pie in the Asian and overseas Chinese-speaking markets.

If you don’t grab it now, and want to grab it later, the price you have to pay will not be a little bit high. Look at the domestic Internet giants in the past. They started to go overseas after they could no longer make money in the domestic market, but the price they paid was not ordinary!
After hanging up the phone, Li Dongling's car had arrived at the gate of Dongling Hi-Tech's headquarters, and Li Dongling's assistant, Su Chicheng, was already waiting there.

"Mr. Li, there are two meetings today. One is the post-New Year meeting at the headquarters, and you need to attend in person!

There is another meeting held by the Pingyang City Government. All local companies in Pingyang are invited. Do you want to attend in person?"

When Su Chicheng walked towards Li Dongling, he told him some of Li Dongling's arrangements for today.

"There was also a call from Yanjing saying that the qualifications of the National Fishing Association have been approved!"

Li Dongling paused when he heard this, and took a document from Su Chicheng. After reading it for a few seconds, a smile appeared on his face. The approval from Yanjing indicated that the National Fishing Association could be established. First, the headquarters would be established, and then the branches of the Fishing Association would be promoted to various provinces and cities.

With the number of anglers in the country, let alone joining the fishing association for free, even paying a fee would probably not stop people from joining.

As the most popular sport in later generations, even if a fisherman comes up empty-handed all afternoon, there will be millions of people watching in a live broadcast room for an entire afternoon. Which sport can compare to this? If this is not the top sport, who else can be the top sport?
As a veteran angler, Li Dongling was naturally qualified to be the president of the first National Fishing Association.

Once the National Fishing Association is promoted, Li Dongling will plan to launch a national fishing competition and professional fishing competitions, making the title of fishing master the highest honor for anglers.

Of course, Li Dongling would definitely give the medal of the first competitive fishing master to Mr. Li. As the president, he must be a role model for thousands of anglers. Is it too much to give himself some honor? !
"There is one more thing, Mr. Gao, the legal department manager. I would like to invite you to the legal department at ten o'clock today!"

After entering the office, Su Chicheng signaled to the other assistants to put a lot of documents on Li Dongling's desk. All these documents required Li Dongling's personal signature.

When Li Dongling heard Su Chicheng mention the matter at the Ministry of Justice, he knew what it was.

"Tell the legal department that I will be there on time. Also notify Manager Ren, Hu Zixian, and Zhang Ao to come together!"

Li Dongling explained to Su Chicheng that the Ministry of Justice was preparing to take action against the companies that infringed the USB flash drive patent.

This was something that had been decided long before the New Year, but there wasn't enough time before the New Year, so now we have to prepare to start!
It was almost ten o'clock. Li Dongling, who had been dealing with documents for a while, stood up and stretched his muscles. These documents were mainly about technology, finance and personnel transfers.

The processing is quite cumbersome, but Li Dongling has always handled these three aspects of documents personally. No matter how busy he is, he will take time to handle them personally.

If Li Dongming was unaware of these three documents, it means that Li Dongling has lost control of Dongling Hi-Tech.

On the contrary, technical documents can let Li Dongling know what Dongling Hi-Tech is doing now and adjust the direction of Dongling Hi-Tech. As long as the general direction is correct, there is no need to worry about sailing in the wrong direction.

If you hold the power over finance and personnel, you won't have to worry about being sidelined or deceived. At least you won't get into too big of a mess.

Standing up and heading towards the Finance Department, Li Dongling saw that the headquarters office was already crowded. With the current size of Dongling Hi-Tech, this office was indeed not enough.

Li Dongling couldn't help but wonder whether he should build a headquarters building for Dongling Hi-Tech. In fact, there had long been voices within Dongling Hi-Tech proposing to build a new headquarters.

Even the Pingyang Municipal Government and the Hanxi Provincial Government have secretly hinted that as long as Dongling Hi-Tech wants to build a new headquarters, any piece of land in Hanxi Province that can be approved will be approved for Dongling Hi-Tech, and it would be best if it can be built into a landmark building.

The Pingyang Municipal Government naturally does not want Dongling Hi-Tech's new headquarters building to be moved to other places. It has also announced that the entire Pingyang can be left to Dongling Hi-Tech to choose a new headquarters, whether it is in the land-scarce Xicheng District or other places, even if it is land under any unit of the municipal government department, they can give the land to Dongling Hi-Tech to build a new headquarters...

After all, compared with the tax revenue and jobs brought by Dongling Hi-Tech, anyone can tell which is stronger.

However, there is no need to rush into the headquarters building. With Dongling Hi-Tech's current revenue, it will not be like the Giant Group, which was dragged down by a headquarters building.

But these two years are the time when money is needed. After Soros withdraws from Southeast Asia, Dongling Hi-Tech will not hesitate to build a headquarters. By then, even if it builds the tallest building in the country, it will not have to worry about being dragged down.

When Li Dongling arrived at the small meeting room of the Legal Department, it was already filled with smoke. Ren Yuefeng, Hu Zixian, Zhang Ao and others had already arrived. Gao Zhiyuan, the general manager of the Legal Department, and several supervisors were sitting there. They all had tired looks on their faces, and it was obvious that they had been busy during this period, but there was excitement in their eyes.

For lawyers, suing giant companies is full of uncertainty, but if they can bring down the other party, it will be a new height in their career!
"Mr. Li!"

Seeing Li Dongling coming in, Gao Zhiyuan and others stood up, put out their cigarettes, and some ran to open the windows.

"sit!"

Li Dongling casually asked a few people, "What is the situation now?"
