Rebirth of the tea art man

Chapter 282 Creating Copyright Barriers in the Listening Book Market
"Oh, it's the same thing as a radio drama, right? When I'm driving, I often listen to that kind of radio drama, especially when I'm running a long distance. It's not easy to get distracted." Ghost Jizi suddenly understood, and soon understood what he meant.

"I understand the truth, but how do you put the audio book you mentioned on the market? You can't open a radio station! Or do you only want to make a website on the computer side?"

Feng Huo frowned and asked.

He agrees with the form of listening to books, but how to deliver this thing to users is how to listen to it?
The radio drama that Ghost Machine is talking about is a radio station.

Many cars have radio stations, and drivers can listen to the radio for entertainment while driving.

But it is impossible for ordinary people to open a radio station, and you have no way to grab that frequency band.But if you only do it on a computer, since you have a computer, you have a lot of choices. Why should you choose to listen to books?
Just like those drivers who listen to the radio in the car, when they get home, there is TV to watch, who still listens to the radio!
"This question... is indeed a question!"

Lin Cheng has to admit that the current market environment is really not suitable for the development of listening to books.

The reason why the audiobook market in the previous life was able to rise was because of the popularity of smartphones and the all-round coverage of 4G5G networks.But that is far from the case now.

This is like a series of Internet outlets such as food delivery, taxi-hailing, shared bicycles, mobile payment, mobile games, short videos, etc.

It's not that this thing can't be made, but without this soil, even if you make it, it can't develop, and there is not enough soil for it to grow.

"Hey, why are you talking about this all the time? Let's get together so rarely, eat and drink well, how about going to an Internet cafe to have fun and play a game of exciting DOTA?"

Yangyu, who became famous at a young age, has absolutely no interest in these entrepreneurial topics.

He can now earn millions of dollars a month while lying down, and he only needs to spend one or two hours working every day. If he is not happy, he can just stop changing, and it will be fine if he stops for two or three days.

How can there be so many troubles, just play and be done!
"Yes, yes, don't talk about this, have a good chat!"

Lin Cheng agreed with a smile.

However, he was thinking about it in his heart.

Since the current market environment is not suitable for listening to books, that is to say, there are currently no competitors, and no one will take the risk of losing money to buy the audiobook copyrights of those online novels.

So……

I'll buy it!
Copyright itself is a resource, a resource that can be hoarded indefinitely.

Just like the global entertainment giant - Disney!

On what?
Isn't it just relying on copyright!
Whether it is Disney, Sony, Marvel, or Warner, they rely on the massive copyrights in their hands, and these copyrights are their most valuable assets.

In this era when no one knows how to engage in the audiobook industry, and no one will buy audiobook copyrights, Lin Cheng can definitely buy a large number of audiobook copyrights at the cheapest price.

When smartphones become popular, 3G and 4G networks spread out, and the market matures, even if he doesn't make audiobooks himself, he can resell these copyrights and make a profit from the middleman.

And the profits in it, and the room for appreciation in it, are far greater than investing in gold and silver, or investing in the stocks of most listed companies.

Just do it!

Only three days later, Lin Cheng established a company called Everest Listening Books.In order to facilitate the connection with Qixing Chinese website, the company was also specially placed in Tianhai.

Immediately afterwards, copyright buyouts began.

As long as there are high-quality novels with more than 3000 average subscriptions, Lin Cheng's Mount Everest audiobook will take the initiative to bid to buy the copyright of the audiobook, and all of them are buyouts at a buyout price.

Once the money is paid, the copyright is in hand, and it will be his property from now on.

At present, Qixing Chinese website has about 1200 fine novels.Lin Cheng’s buyout offer is generally 3000 for 5000 yuan, 1 for 30 yuan, 2 for 100 yuan, and [-] million yuan for [-] yuan. analogy.

The first batch of investment is 1 million. Try to compress the copyright cost of a single book to less than [-]. Novels with an average subscription of [-] or more are directly excluded. Instead, buy those high-quality novels with an average subscription of three to four thousand. Buy in bulk.

Whether it is for the website or the author, a fine novel with 3000 subscriptions can only earn 5 yuan a month if the channel does not explode, and suddenly it can sell a copyright worth [-] yuan. It was a surprise indeed.

The most important thing is that no one is currently buying this audiobook copyright in the market, and the only buyer is Lin Cheng.It means that he has the exclusive pricing power and has no competitors at all.

And the audiobook copyrights of these thousand boutique novels are permanently bought out, starting with a 50-year copyright cycle.

The cost of each book is between 5 and 10. If you make audiobooks in the future, even if you earn 1 yuan a year for a book, it only takes five years to recover the cost. The 45 years is the net profit of net profit.

Moreover, this kind of data assets, electronic assets, has no shelf life, and does not require storage costs. There is no need to worry about how much there is.

Of course, while attacking Qixing Chinese website, Lin Cheng also did not forget to go to Jinjiang Novels, another giant of women's novels.

It is also the first batch of [-] million yuan to buy audiobook copyrights frantically, especially for those novels that have the potential to be adapted, and have even been adapted into film and television dramas.

8 million in cash, [-] million was directly thrown in.

Lin Cheng's actions may seem exaggerated, but they are actually a profitable business.We must know that the total output value of the audiobook industry will reach a market size of 2020 billion in 100.

Lin Cheng seized the copyright of a large number of high-quality novels in advance, which is tantamount to firmly grasping the source of the entire listening book market.No matter whether it is any company or anyone, if they want to compete with him and make a name for themselves in the audiobook market, they cannot avoid his copyright barriers.

"Mr. Lin, the crew of "Bubu Gongxin" will officially wrap up the day after tomorrow. Are you going to visit the crew?"

Wang Manni sent a tentative message.

As the boss's secretary, one must not only complete the work ordered by the boss, but also learn to understand the boss's mind, and complete those things that the boss wants to do but has not done.

For example, this ancient costume palace drama "Every Step of the Palace Heart" has always been the focus of the boss's great concern, and even invested more effort than last year's "The Age of Red Marriage".

Originally, according to the filming process, the show would be officially completed in early March this year.

However, Lin Cheng, the boss who is the largest investor, personally ordered that the filming period can be extended, regardless of the cost, just to make the TV series to the best level.

As a result, the TV series that was originally completed in early March was polished until early May, and it took two more months to make up a lot of shots, striving to achieve the most perfect state.

You know, the shooting cycle of a TV series is generally about 3 months.For costume dramas, the time may be a little longer, about 4 months.

However, because Lin Cheng spared no expense and time, the filming cycle of "Bubu Gongxin" was directly extended from the original 4 months to a full 6 months. It doesn't take so long for blockbuster movies.

"Well, you help me arrange the itinerary, I will go there tomorrow!"

After replying to the message, Lin Cheng had complicated eyes.

There are so many things this year, even more and more messy than last year, that I almost forgot about the drama "Bubu Gongxin".

I hope there is still time!

No, definitely in time!

After all, I planted a needle in advance!
