You call this entrepreneurship?

Chapter 360 trailer is hot
The leisurely time of summer vacation is still so pleasant and boring.

While listening to the cicadas chirping outside the window, the indoor fan was turning weakly, trying to bring a little coolness.

Xiao Xiaomeng, a veteran user of the campus network, was still lazily slumped on the sofa, switching TV channels with the remote control out of boredom, looking for programs that interested her.

The hot weather made this homebody like her completely become a creature of her small home, and she even didn't want to go out.

"I'm so annoyed. Why is there news about Super Girls again? Don't you have any other news every day?" Xiao Xiaomeng turned off the TV with the remote control in anger.

This year's "Super Girl" has become completely popular. It seems that the whole nation is paying attention to this program. Everyone is talking about the contestants, and news about "Super Girl" is everywhere.

As an outlier who was not very sociable, Xiao Xiaomeng didn't care about "Super Girl" at all. Others participated with great enthusiasm, but she just thought it was noisy.

Not only is there information about Super Girls everywhere on television, in newspapers and magazines, but there are also people singing "Super Girls" everywhere on the Internet.

For example, on the campus network, there is a group of people in the popular square who are like possessed, posting and spamming all kinds of content on it day and night without getting any sleep.

These people are quite combative, numerous and tireless. Almost half of the topic posts on the popular square are posted by them.

As soon as you open the campus network, you can see various topics about "Super Girl" everywhere. Xiao Xiaomeng is fed up with it and wishes she could become a super administrator and ban all these people.

"What have they done to the good campus network?" Xiao Xiaomeng complained.

Fortunately, this group of people were just entertaining themselves and didn't disturb others, so they were nothing more than an eyesore.

The campus network seemed to know that this group of people were a bit noisy, and had taken action to discipline some of those who were too noisy, and then often held lucky draws for users to please them.

Xiao Xiaomeng often gets a lot of coupons from the campus network, including shopping coupons from Jingdong Mall, phone cards, and occasionally movie tickets, as well as a variety of prizes.

However, Xiao Xiaomeng's favorite is the milk tea shop at the University Student Station, which means she can often buy a variety of delicious milk tea at six prices.

"Oh, I really miss the kumquat lemonade and ice cream from the milk tea shop in school." Xiao Xiaomeng said with longing, and opened the refrigerator casually, but there was not even any drink in it. "Why is such a delicious milk tea shop only opened in the university? It makes people want to drink it but have nowhere to buy it."

Thinking of this, Xiao Xiaomeng rolled over from the sofa, ran to the computer and started it up.

After entering the pirated XP system, she opened the browser, quickly found the location of the campus network on the homepage hao123, and clicked on it.

After logging into the campus network, she first took a look at the private messages on the site, deleted the advertisements and spam messages sent by the system, and then enthusiastically replied to the friends who had sent her messages one by one.

Some friends were online and immediately sent me messages again, and then we started chatting through internal messages.

While chatting, Xiao Xiaomeng checked the notifications of received messages. After interacting with the messages, she went to the popular square as usual to see if there were any interesting posts today.

As soon as she entered the popular square, she immediately noticed a highlighted red pinned message.

The account that posted the news was the official account of the campus network, and the title was "Breaking news! The editor brings you important news from the world's most senior political organization."

"Campus network and the world's highest political organization?" Xiao Xiaomeng was a little stunned. These two words are so different when put together. How could they be connected?

Xiao Xiaomeng clicked on the message out of curiosity, and then saw the first line of big words.

"Attention, Datu kills the cat!"

"The editor has sent you a message from the United Nations headquarters!"

Then a photo of the conference hall of the United Nations headquarters building slowly loaded.

The photo shows that the conference hall is full of people, and the two sides of the rostrum are hung with flags of various countries.

Campus network staff stood in the corner wearing clothes with the campus network logo and waving small national flags.

Xiao Xiaomeng was attracted to this photo the first time she saw it.

How did the campus network get to the United Nations? It’s getting more and more high-end.

In the next few photos, Xiao Xiaomeng saw that there were several rows of seats in the conference hall with Chinese flags on them. The people sitting in the seats looked very young and seemed to be students.

The small print below the photo reads, "Chinese University Student Delegation to the World University Student Forum Summit."

"Wow, the World University Forum." Xiao Xiaomeng's eyes lit up and she looked at these representatives with envy and longing.

Those who are selected for this delegation must be elites from major domestic universities, and have nothing to do with Xiao Xiaomeng, a homely and poor student.

Although she was envious, this kind of thing was too far away from Xiao Xiaomeng's life.

Perhaps the only thing she has in common with these representatives is that she is a Chinese college student.

“The last stop of the International University Summer Camp, the World University Forum Summit, came to a successful conclusion.”

“Would you like to know the story behind the International College Student Summer Camp?”

“Want to learn about the natural scenery, culture and customs of European countries?”

“Want to know what college students in other countries are like? Want to know what world-class universities are like?”

“Want to know what the United Nations headquarters looks like?”

"The campus network will bring you a self-made documentary, "Showing You the World" on August 8th."

“Let’s follow the camera lens, follow the footsteps of the International College Student Summer Camp, and see the world!”

At the end of the post, there is a video from Qvod, the trailer for "Show You the World".

Xiao Xiaomeng immediately clicked on the trailer and started playing it, and also turned on the speakers.

At the beginning of the trailer, melodious background music floats out, and in the camera, a boat in Venice floats slowly. Then the scene changes to the ancient Roman Colosseum, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, Milan, Florence, the Cologne Cathedral in Germany, the Eiffel Tower in France, the Big Ben in the UK, Stonehenge...

The camera quickly swept across famous landscapes that are familiar to everyone, from the banks of the Seine in Paris to the Thames in London, to Yellowstone National Park and Forest Park. The camera changed and the background music became more exciting.

From the breathtaking natural scenery to the colorful cultural landscape, and then to the glimpse of the technology mecca Silicon Valley and MIT, in just a few minutes, the camera seems to take the audience all over the world.

The last part is a clip of a heated debate in the conference hall of the United Nations headquarters.

The trailer uses fast editing to show the contestants' heated speeches, perfectly synced with the background music.

Each drum beat corresponds to a word spoken by a person, making the entire debate particularly intense and exciting.

Xiao Xiaomeng sat in front of the computer and watched the trailer without blinking. She didn't react until the trailer ended.

Is this the end?
So short?
I haven’t seen enough yet!
Xiao Xiaomeng became excited instantly. This show is interesting!

Suddenly I became looking forward to it.

Xiao Xiaomeng suddenly remembered that she seemed to have heard of the "International College Student Summer Camp". It was an activity initiated by the campus network several months ago.

It is said that the selected candidates can study in Europe and the United States and travel around the world.

When the activity first appeared, it caused a sensation on the campus network, and countless users clicked to participate, hoping to become one of the lucky ones.

At that time, Xiao Xiaomeng filled out the registration form very excitedly. She was known as the lucky star on the campus network and won prizes quite frequently.

The last time she won a big prize, she also won a computer, which made many campus network users envious and jealous, and also brought her many fans.

Although the computer seemed to be unable to do anything except surfing the Internet, it was still a computer and cost several thousand yuan. I had hoped to win a prize again by luck, but unfortunately I was stuck at the second step of registration.

The campus network requires applicants to have passed the Level 6 English test and be able to conduct daily conversations fluently.

When Xiao Xiaomeng saw this, she gave up decisively. Her level was barely enough to pass the CET-4. She couldn't even understand her Chinese English with a Northeastern accent, and couldn't communicate with foreigners at all.

But later, Xiao Xiaomeng heard that there was a finalist in the school, which made her extremely envious.

She thought at the time that if she didn't give up, she might be the one selected.

Humph, traveling around the world is nothing great.

That's it.

Now when she sees the trailer, she feels sad.

Will definitely sign up next year!
I can’t miss this good opportunity next time. What if I win?
While thinking about it, Xiao Xiaomeng opened the trailer again, ready to watch it again.

……

There seems to be an explosion of information on the Internet now, but in fact, compared with later generations, the content is still very scarce, especially documentaries.

Although the Internet has broken through geographical restrictions, communication between people is still mostly limited to text and pictures.

The video website was just starting out, and due to bandwidth issues, the video images were still blurry.

People still lack corresponding channels to understand the world, and information is very limited.

Previously, only snippets could be seen on TV programs and there were only a few pictures on the Internet.

The documentary "Showing You the World" is different. It shoots these famous landscapes from a close first-person perspective and captures a large number of images of European and American countries, making netizens who lack channels to understand the world eagerly look forward to it.

The documentary "Showing You the World" produced by Qvod and Campus Network set a precedent for websites to produce their own content.

And more importantly, there are no similar programs on the Internet.
The first person to try something new always gets rich rewards.

As soon as the trailer was released on Qvod, it was immediately pushed to the top of the most viewed lists by users, with the number of comments increasing by hundreds per minute.

The documentary "Showing You the World" became popular before it was even aired. The trailer was a huge hit, with more than three million views on the day it was uploaded, becoming a hot news on the Internet.

The three major portals, Sina, NetEase, and Sohu, all had related news on their homepages.

The entire domestic Internet was discussing "Take You to See the World", and the number of online users on Qvod began to grow explosively, reaching a peak of 2 million users watching online at the same time.

This homemade documentary came out of nowhere and dealt a heavy blow to other video websites.

Tudou and Youku were very shocked when they heard the news. Wang Wei stared at the screen for more than ten minutes, watching the five-minute trailer over and over again.

We are planning to launch a "podcast project" to support users in uploading and sharing high-quality content, while we are directly setting up a website to create our own content.

In terms of quality, it is a crushing blow. Content shot and produced by professionals is more likely to attract audiences than content produced by users in an undisciplined way.

If Qvod is doing this, what are video sites like Tudou doing?
Unfortunately, this kind of self-made content is too expensive and has a long production cycle, so it is impossible to produce it in large quantities. Otherwise, there would be no need to compete and we would just surrender and admit defeat.

Wang Wei began to worry about the "Podcast Plan", wondering whether the content uploaded and shared by users could open up the market.

Damn, Qvod is really rich and powerful. They are the first to produce their own content.

Is it great to have money?
Video websites don’t make money, but you don’t have to worry about losing money.

Wang Wei thought sourly, and at this moment he suddenly realized that it was of no use to make good self-made content. With the current state of video websites, it would be a loss if one made a self-made content.

He didn't believe that Qvod would continue to lose money like this. Besides, it didn't have such a fast production speed.

Look how good Tudou is, it provides users with free content.

……

Campus Network and Qvod Network once again became a hot topic on the Internet, and naturally attracted the attention of venture capital.

However, Xiong Xiaoge did not see the news on the Internet. He saw Qin Shaoyan's photo in the newspaper.

Although the color pictures published in the newspaper are not high-definition, they are enough to see people clearly.

This headline report is about the "World University Students Forum Summit" held at the United Nations Headquarters. The protagonists in the photo are Chinese student representatives and Director Wang from the ministry who were interviewed.

But in the corner of the photo, Xiong Xiaoge saw Qin Shaoyan, who was smiling, with a United Nations pass hanging on his chest, standing behind the interviewee.

Xiong Xiaoge knew about the "International College Student Summer Camp" plan. Qin Shaoyan had talked to him about it when he started this activity.

He is also very clear about things like student unions of major European and American universities, study tours, social activities, and the like.

At that time, Xiong Xiaoge thought that Qin Shaoyan was just making a gimmick and getting a group of college students out to travel.

Qin Shaoyan said that he wanted to hold a debate at the United Nations headquarters. Xiong Xiaoge thought that he was just talking nonsense and didn't take it seriously at all.

After all, that's the United Nations. Is that a place you can go whenever you want?

Not to mention holding any activities in there, it's not a conference hall that can be rented out.

When Xiong Xiaoge suddenly saw this news, he was a little confused. Qin Shaoyan actually made it to the United Nations headquarters.

It turns out you were serious!

Xiong Xiaoge was keenly aware that this was a bit of a big deal, so he immediately asked people to investigate and collect information.

He was surprised by the feedback he received later. Major domestic media outlets began to follow up on the coverage of the "World University Students Forum Summit".

Although most articles did not mention the sponsor Campus Network, the Campus Network’s logo frequently appeared in the news pictures.

This kind of unintentional publicity can also bring huge popularity to the campus network.

Xiong Xiaoge immediately called Qin Shaoyan, but found that he still couldn't get through this time. He immediately got up and went straight to the campus network company.

As soon as he entered the room, he went straight to the CTO Wang Jun who stayed behind, "Where is your CEO Qin? Why didn't you answer my call again?"

"Boss Qin hasn't come back yet?" Wang Jun looked at the aggressive Xiong Xiaoge and felt a little guilty. "What happened, Boss Xiong?"

"Is he on the plane? Call me as soon as he comes back." Xiong Xiaoge warned seriously.

"Well, I'm afraid Mr. Qin won't be back for a few days." Wang Jun answered cautiously.

"In a few days? Isn't the activity over? Why is he still in the United States?" Xiong Xiaoge was furious. "Why did he disappear again for no reason?"

"Boss Qin has to prepare for an interview with CCTV, so it has been postponed for a few days." Wang Jun explained, "Boss Xiong, if you have any questions, you can come to me..."

"An interview with CCTV?!" Xiong Xiaoge was stunned.

It seems that Qin Shaoyan has made a big move this time.
