After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 217 The real thing is that we take the money and run away!

Qvod is a magical software...

While other video websites are struggling with bandwidth and copyright issues, Qvod's encoding and decoding technology means that its bandwidth requirements are only one percent of those of others.

The peer-to-peer technology of Qvod is also skirting the line of piracy. After users search through Qvod, they are redirected to small websites, which they then play or download through Qvod.

Although they are occasionally fined, the amounts are small. The maximum administrative penalty imposed by the National Copyright Administration is only 25 yuan, which is not enough to cover one day's bandwidth fee.

By the end of 2011, Qvod had become the largest platform in terms of the number of active users.

The two major shareholders of Qvod are amazing. One is Zeng Liqing, one of the founders of Penguin, and the other is Lao Zhou of 360.

In order to develop Qvod, they even poached Zhu Daxin from Penguin, who was Tencent’s 39th employee.

It can be said that Lao Ma wanted to kill Wang Xin.

Killing the chicken to scare the monkeys is to show it to Zeng Liqing, Liu Chunning, and Jack Ma.

Because Liu Chunning was very optimistic about KuaiBo at that time, he took the lead and planned to let Wang Xin meet Jack Ma.

But soon something happened on the fast track broadcast, and the meeting came to an end.

A year later, Liu Chunning was also reported by his former employer and imprisoned.

When it comes to videos, Lao Ma is the most attentive, as can be seen from this.

Of course, it also suffered the heaviest losses.

Wang Changtian went to talk to Lao Ma, but Li Mingyang sat in the car and did not go with him.

He thought for a while, called Cai Zhongxin, and prepared to sell the shares of Youku to Alibaba.

Cai Chongxin did not explicitly refuse and asked him to wait.

Ten minutes later, Cai Chongxin called back.

Alibaba is willing to buy 3.8% of Youku shares at a % discount.

This price is about the same as the black market.

Youku is still very popular in the eyes of foreign investors.

Li Mingyang had just reached an agreement with Alibaba when Wang Changtian came back with a cold face.

Wang Changtian got in the car and after a long silence, he said, "Boss Ma is not interested in Youku's stock...

Penguin Video has been tested internally, and he hopes someone can help him run it.”

"It can't be me, right?"

"Ah."

"How do I do it? I'll start a company in my name and Penguin will provide the money, people and resources?" Li Mingyang said.

"That's pretty much what it means."

"That account can't be settled later. If you can't settle it, prepare to go to jail." Li Mingyang shook his head, not wanting to get involved in this mess.

The copyright war among video websites has begun, and no one can tell the price of the copyright of the top TV series...

A TV series costs tens of millions. Is there something fishy about the price? How much kickbacks were taken?

The broadcast results were not ideal, who should be blamed for this?
The price of a TV series is often tens of millions, and we have to buy at least ten a year.

Even the Penguin people have to submit reports and apply, there is no way that Ma will give up this power.

Besides, this is just the beginning...

The video website is very large. In the first year, it has the copyrights of at least several thousand TV series, as well as animation, movies, and sports events broadcasting rights...

Wang Changtian groaned for a moment, "Do you want to go up and meet Boss Ma? I feel like he's a little hesitant now."

"Hesitation? Hesitation means that the deal has not been reached. You can ask the higher-ups to loosen it up. Don't talk to Penguin anymore. I've already reached an agreement with Joseph Tsai. It's 3.8, a % discount," said Li Mingyang.

Wang Changtian suddenly smiled, "Why do I feel that you don't want to cooperate with Boss Ma? Penguin is a good partner, with high pay and little work, and short hands."

"It's not that I don't want to cooperate with Pony Ma, it's that I don't want to cooperate with any of BAT. Mr. Wang, stop thinking about turning the tables. The real thing is for us to take the money and run away!"

Run, run, can you escape?
The next day, Li Mingyang and Wang Changtian came to Alibaba’s Hangzhou headquarters.

Cai Chongxin personally came out to receive the guests.

In the conference room, in addition to Alibaba's finance and lawyers, there were also bank executives and Zhejiang Broadcasting Corporation's senior management.

As soon as Cai Zhongxin introduced the people in the conference room, Li Mingyang and Wang Changtian knew that this was going to be a complicated tug-of-war.

Wang Changtian is a slow-tempered person and is very familiar with this kind of tug-of-war. He can counter each move and practice Tai Chi.

Wang Changtian didn't want to quit and wanted to continue.

If we withdraw now, the losses will be huge.

Li Mingyang didn't want to lose too much, so he said nothing and watched Wang Changtian perform to see if he could raise the price.

The negotiations between the two parties mainly revolved around Youku's shares and the copyright of Running Man.

But the conversation went off track and ended up talking about Baidu and Penguin, as well as economic policies, cultural tourism, online shopping, mobile Internet, and electronic payments.

Cai Zhongxin slowly unveiled Alibaba’s blueprint, and at the end of the negotiations, revealed Alibaba’s ambition for big entertainment.

The first day of negotiations yielded no results.

However, during this period, Huayi and Huace were not idle at all, taking advantage of the time when Li Mingyang was negotiating with Alibaba.

The two parties held a joint press conference at Huayi’s headquarters and joined hands with Mission Hills Group to jointly launch the film and television city project.

The first film and television city is the Haikou Mission Hills Huayi Feng Xiaogang Film Commune, located in Hong Kong City, HAN Province.

A comprehensive tourist area integrating real-life tourism, physical commerce, and film and television shooting.

"They're dragging us here, and holding a press conference over there." Li Mingyang frowned and said, "Boss Wang, what are you thinking? If you keep dragging it out like this, it will be very disadvantageous to us!"

"hold on."

Wang Changtian seemed to have a backup plan and wanted to continue playing.

But Li Mingyang just wanted to get the money and run, and didn't want to fight with these big guys anymore, which was painful.

As long as you have money, why worry about not making money?

Li Mingyang wants money.

However, the madness of capital has just begun... Three days later, on the morning of April 4, Huayi Brothers announced that the company's stock was sold by five shareholders on April 26 for a total of 4 million shares.

Subsequently, Penguin and Huayi jointly announced that Penguin had made a strategic investment in Huayi Brothers. The investment was completed through the Shenzhen Stock Exchange's block trading platform on April 4, involving an amount of nearly RMB 23 million.

After the investment was completed, Tencent held a 4.6% stake in Huayi Brothers and became one of Huayi's shareholders.

West Lake State Guesthouse.

When Wang Changtian saw this news, he was dumbfounded.

Negotiations with Alibaba are still ongoing, but Penguin has already acquired a stake in Huayi Brothers.

Since then, the three Internet giants BAT have all invested in Huayi.

Among them, Alibaba has the largest shares, followed by Penguin and finally Baidu.

Wang Changtian put down his phone, slowly picked up the teacup and sipped the tea.

Penguin's investment in Huayi does not mean that it fully supports Huayi.

Investing in shares only gives you the right to speak, you can buy or sell, and there is not much financial loss.

As long as there is no capital injection, there is still room for negotiation.

God knows where the capital injection money went in the end.

Of course, this doesn't mean there is no danger.

If Penguin didn't invest in Light Media, Light Media would really be powerless to recover.

Wang Changtian never gave up on going public. In addition to Li Mingyang, Guangxian also invested in Fist of Fury, Full Alert, and All’s Well That Ends Well 2010.

All three films will be released this year.

"Ip Man 2" is directed by Andrew Lau, produced by Gordon Chan and stars Zhen Zhidan.

The combination of these three billion-yuan box office writers, directors, and actors is the three insurances for a movie's high box office. Wang Changtian's target box office is 3 million.

Wang Changtian expects the box office of the sci-fi action film "Full Alert", which is directed by Benny Chan and starred by Aaron Kwok, to reach 1 million yuan with an investment of 1 million yuan.

I don’t expect to make a profit, as long as it breaks 100 million.

With an investment of 1000 million, All's Well That Ends Well 2010, a low-budget comedy directed by Wong Jing, eventually grossed million at the box office.

In the past two years, Wong Jing has never disappointed Wang Changtian.

Even without Li Mingyang, Guangguang still has two movies with a box office of over 100 million yuan this year, as well as a small-scale big-win movie.

All Wang Changtian needs now is a huge amount of capital to drive up the stock price!
Penguin actually doesn’t care much about light…All Boss Ma wanted from the beginning to the end was Li Mingyang.

Wang Changtian knew that Li Mingyang just wanted to run away, so he refused on behalf of Li Mingyang.

And then... the penguin did this to him.

It can't be delayed any longer.

Penguin wants an answer.

Wang Changtian suspected that Boss Ma had already reached an agreement with the higher-ups and would be able to enter the video track soon.

Penguin is the undisputed overlord in the gaming market.

Next, Penguin will focus on two things: Weibo and video.

"There aren't many choices left. Penguin is forcing him to choose one of three."

"Either Wanda, Penguin, or Ali!"

Wang Changtian muttered to himself, then took a sip of tea.

After a while, he raised his wrist and looked at the time.

"Li Mingyang hasn't come to see me for such a long time, could he have run away?"

Wang Changtian stood up, left the room, and knocked on the door of the room opposite.

Seeing no one opening the door, Wang Changtian quickly took out his cell phone and called Li Mingyang.

Knowing that the other party still had the leisure to eat breakfast in the restaurant at this time, he felt very complicated.

When we arrived at the restaurant, we saw Li Mingyang had opened a bottle of champagne and placed it on the table. He was drinking champagne and eating pasta.

Wang Changtian is not complicated, he is speechless.

"You seem quite happy."

"A favorite line in Hong Kong dramas is, a day is happy or unhappy. Anyway, Ali is paying for it, so it would be a waste not to drink it." Li Mingyang poured a glass of wine for Wang Changtian and said.

"Penguin has already invested in Huayi." Wang Changtian put the wine glass aside.

"I know, Brother Xiao Ma is forcing us to make a choice."

"What do you think of Wanda?"

In the upper, middle and lower reaches of the movie industry, Guangguang has the upper and middle parts, but not the lower parts.

And Wanda is the number one cinema chain in China.

When two powerful forces join together, they are naturally invincible.

But there is a problem... once it joins forces with Wanda, Light will completely lose the initiative and will soon be completely swallowed up.

Wanda is a real estate tycoon. It won’t be long before he becomes the largest real estate developer in China and the richest man in the real estate industry…

The future richest man on Hurun’s pig-killing list.

Light and Wanda are not on the same level at all.

"Sure! I think Wanda is pretty good. Jing Tian also happens to be in Wanda. I can help you make an appointment with Lao Wang, and we can have a meal together and sign the contract happily." Li Mingyang took a sip of champagne and said with a smile.

Wang Changtian laughed, "I don't need your help. Lao Wang has approached me several times. He wants to acquire Guangxian. The price is acceptable, and the shares are also acceptable. After the acquisition, I will still be the boss of Guangxian, but I don't trust him..."

"It's not Old Wang who is in charge of the Old Wang family."

“You could say that before, but it’s different now.”

Li Mingyang immediately became interested and wanted to know what was different.

But Wang Changtian didn't want to say much, he just said one sentence, Lao Wang has his own circle.
