The world of film and television starts from the flow of money

Chapter 177 Love in Beijing (Four Years Later)
Ruilong Building, [-]th floor.

Huijing Network Company.

In the conference room, the TV was turned on and a group of senior executives were gathering together to chat. The atmosphere was somewhat relaxed.

Qu Jiafan knocked on the table, looked at Shang Qide and said with a smile: "Oh, old Shang, the boss originally asked you to go, why did you refuse? It's a rare opportunity to show your face, and you just gave up like that? Isn't that right? Are you worried that your image will be bad and you will bring bad luck to the company?"

Listening to Qu Jiafan's teasing, a group of people suddenly laughed.

"Fuck you!" Shang Qide grabbed a bag of potato chips and threw it at Qu Jiafan and said: "You are the only one in our company who is not qualified to criticize me. I am still ranked among the top five in the company's male idol list. You If I don’t lose weight, my ranking will be at the bottom every month.”

"Indeed, last time Laoqu went to dinner with me, my classmates were all asking about the food in our company. Good guy, Laoqu can be the spokesperson in the cafeteria from now on, don't talk, just sit there."

"Hahaha~~"

"Ha, haha~~~"

"Is this a ranking based on position?" After failing to steal the chicken and losing the rice, Qu Jiafan's face turned red with the help of potato chips, and he did not forget to tear open the bag in his hand: "Who ranked it? This is not true! There is definitely a shady secret, and I won’t admit it without any authority!”

"Wei Xiaoxue arranged it, you go find her."

Someone started to shout:
"That's it, go find the instigator. Don't be afraid of her! She will be crushed to death even with the weight of your body."

"Then forget it!" Qu Jiafan shrank back and said harshly: "Good men don't fight with women!"

"Cut~~"

"Woo~~"

There were bursts of boos and laughter in the conference room.

In the lounge next door, a group of women were also chattering.

"What are they doing? They want to demolish the house, right? The boss is not here today, it's just like Chinese New Year!"

Huang Peiyu knocked on the pine nuts and frowned listening to the noise coming from next door.

"What else can a group of men talk about together? Apart from work and national affairs, or women, maybe they are discussing you." Zhu Yunjuan picked up the tea cup and said calmly.

"Then you definitely can't run away," Wei Xiaoxue said with a smile.

"I'm older and can't compare with you." Zhu Yunjuan smiled and shook her head.

"Nowadays, some men are just like you, saying they are young and mature women," Wei Xiaoxue smiled a little strangely: "I heard them discussing you last time."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. When it comes to this, you are more energetic than them, and none of them are in a formal shape!" Zhu Yunjuan's face turned red, she glanced at Wei Xiaoxue, picked up the cup and took a sip.

"It's boring!" Wei Xiaoxue curled her lips and turned to look at Shen Bing, who was smiling and saying nothing: "How did you and Shi Xiaomeng go to see the house?"

"Still looking for it," Shen Bing shook his head: "I advised him not to buy a house. The house is pretty good now, but he didn't listen and insisted on buying a bigger one."

"We have to get a bigger one," Wei Xiaoxue nodded and said, "It's just right for two people to live together now, but what will happen if we have children in the future? Do the elderly at home want to take over? They won't be able to turn around by then. Now the house prices have risen so much. It’s better to buy it earlier, otherwise, you won’t be able to afford it by then.”

"But it's not that easy to find a suitable house," Shen Bing smiled bitterly: "It has to have convenient transportation, a suitable area, and a mortgage. Xiaomeng's car is still being paid for."

"It's okay to work harder now," Wei Xiaoxue understood Shi Xiaomeng's choice and said: "You two can completely afford the salary, it's just that your life is a little tighter, but it's better to buy a house with this money than to put it in the bank to depreciate. Don't say anything. The question of whether the money in Shi Xiaomeng’s hand will go bad, at least there is a house here to make it more practical, this can be regarded as your husband and wife’s common property, even if it happens, don’t worry!”

"There is no chance," Shen Bing looked at Wei Xiaoxue angrily: "You don't have many good words in your mouth. According to your calculations, why don't you get married at all?"

"Haha..." Wei Xiaoxue smiled: "If you're not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst."

"Actually, even if you are prepared for the worst, your expectations have not been lowered, right?" Shen Bing said: "What else can you do besides wasting time? Even if there is a good man, you will miss it. There are so many outstanding boys in the company. , there were quite a few people who started chasing you, but you scared them all away."

"If you don't feel it, you just don't feel it." Wei Xiaoxue shook her head: "That's it for now. I'm also planning to buy a house. Let's go look at it together during the holidays. We can also be neighbors."

"Ah?" Shen Bing said in surprise: "Isn't it too hard for you to pay for the house by yourself?"

"Then what can we do? It's not a problem to rent a house all the time. You have to have a home," Wei Xiaoxue said: "At least I can have more confidence in finding a partner in the future. When I see someone who is suitable, I can calmly pat my chest and say that I am not interested in his house." Yes. If I meet someone I like, I don’t mind if he eats soft food, haha~"

"..., that's fine," Shen Bing laughed and said, "Then we can still be neighbors together in the future."

"Well, it's settled," Wei Xiaoxue looked up at the TV:
"Let's talk later, let's get started."

Changyi community, [-] rooms.

Although the room is a bit narrow, it is quite neat and tidy.

Cheng Feng's face hadn't been shaved for several days, his beard was unkempt, and the clothes he was wearing were a little wrinkled, making him look a lot older.The haggard look on his face is no longer as high-spirited as it used to be.

At this time, Cheng Feng finally realized Shi Xiaomeng's sadness back then.Perhaps, Cheng Feng should feel more uncomfortable than Shi Xiaomeng.Because Shi Xiaomeng's small family was not rich, but Cheng Feng had enjoyed prosperity and wealth since he was a child. It is easy for people to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go back from luxury to frugality.

Opening the door, Cheng Feng saw Cheng Sheng'en sitting on a chair looking at him in astonishment. He was holding a handful of beads and a pile at his feet. He heard the sound of the door opening and wanted to put the things away, but it was already too late. .

Although Cheng Shengen did not suffer much in prison and only stayed in the detention center for a few months, after this blow, especially when he thought that not only did he not leave any money to his son, but instead made his son spend three years in a prison cell, he felt even more guilty. , the energy of the past is no longer there, he is obviously much older, and he has also lost a lot of weight.

"Ahem~, Xiaofeng, didn't you just go? Why are you back again?"

"Well, I'll come back to get something. Dad, are you coughing again?" Cheng Feng forced a smile on his face. He didn't want his father to worry: "I've told you several times not to pick up these loose jobs, right? Bad eyes."

"It's okay, I'm okay. I caught a little cold in the morning. Just drink a cup of hot water." Cheng Sheng'en lightly beat his chest and said, "Anyway, idle time is idle. I can still move now. I can earn a little." . It would be nice to lighten the burden a little bit."

"Dad, am I useless?" Cheng Feng's eyes turned red and he felt a little sad.

"You're not useless, I'm dragging you down. If my body were better, I wouldn't be like this." Cheng Sheng'en sighed and comforted: "You are still young now, slowly accumulate experience, there are still opportunities. "

"Yeah~, I will, dad, I will definitely let you live a good life again!" Cheng Feng nodded heavily, went back to the room and took out the things. Before leaving, he told Cheng Shengen to take a rest and went out. .

...............

Inside the big pants, the studio of "Xiao Tao Interview" is already full of seats. Most of the audience are young people, with the majority being girls.

Looking at Yi Huawei, who was in a neat suit on the stage, full of energy and a confident smile, the young boy's eyes showed envy and a look that could replace him.

The interview had just begun. After her opening remarks, the female host Lu Tao looked at Yi Huawei with a smile and said:

"I didn't expect that Mr. An would be so young and handsome. He really is a hero from a young age!"

"You don't want to be a hero," Yi Huawei said with a smile and waved his hand: "Young and handsome people are acceptable."

"Haha~~"

There was a burst of good-natured laughter from the audience.

After the audience's laughter subsided, Lu Tao introduced:
"Some viewers may not understand it yet. Even though Mr. An is young, Huijing Entertainment, which he founded, was successfully listed on the New York Stock Exchange at the end of last year, becoming the second listed game live broadcast platform in China with a market value of 36 Billions of dollars.”

As soon as these words came out, the audience immediately exploded and started talking about it. "Wow~~, 36 billion US dollars!!, converted into RMB, isn't it more than 200 billion?"

"To be precise, it's 240 million..."

"How should we spend so much money? We can't finish eating abalone and sea cucumber every day, right?"

"Sea cucumbers are quite cheap. I can wrap my feet and eat them every day."

"Go away, I'm just using a metaphor, don't use foot binding to disgust people!!"

"Look at you guys who have never seen the world. This is the stock price, not cash. Besides, not all of the shares belong to him. If it is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, it is good that he can still hold 20.00% of the shares."

"..., may I ask which young master you are from? Even if he only has 20%, he still has more than [-] billion. Have you ever seen so much money in your life?"

"I've seen it. It was issued by Tiandi Bank. I burned trillions for my grandpa last time..."

...............

The voice became softer, and Lu Tao then changed the topic, looked at Yi Huawei and continued: "I would like to ask Mr. An, why did you choose this industry at that time? I remember that at that time, Quwan Entertainment had already begun to develop a live broadcast platform. Right? This can be considered as pulling out a tooth from a tiger's mouth?"

Yi Huawei smiled and said loudly:

“Because I’m young, I know what young people need and like now, so I jumped into this industry.

Also because the market needs Huijing.

A dominant player is not something anchors want to see, because it means they have only one boss to choose from. Likewise, a dominant player is not what the market wants to see.In any industry, if a dominant company emerges, what does this mean? I believe you all know the consequences.

In fact, during that period of time, the structure of the game live broadcast industry was that one super player had many strong players, and one super player was Moya.At that time, in addition to Magic Fang, which was spun off from Quwan Games, there were also Douyu, which was spun off from the A-station game channel, as well as Dragon Pig and War Chess.

We at Huijing can be said to be inconspicuous among them. In addition, we did not introduce capital at the time, so we could not burn through them by burning money.Like the game ranking money-burning competition back then, we at Huijing were basically qualified to participate.

However, why does Huijing stand out among them?Is this idiom correct? …That’s because we have a great team that produces content ourselves.

They burn money to buy content, events, teams, anchors, and media.

But we only spend money on two things. The first is to buy anchors, and the second is to buy technology and develop technology.So, they spend ten bucks, we only have to spend one, or even less.

Because compared to burning money to focus on short-term competitiveness, I prefer to invest funds in hard power.This is a choice between winning in the moment and winning in the long run.Rather than buying anchors at a high price, we choose to launch our own anchors.

We have a highly engaged and interactive community with rich and dynamic content offerings.

In addition, we have cutting-edge technical capabilities and scalable infrastructure. In order to optimize user experience, we took the lead in launching Blu-ray 8M, and at the same time mastered leading video compression technology among peers.By using machine learning super-resolution technology in the backend of the service area to produce videos of the same definition under the same conditions, the traffic required by our Huijing Live Broadcast is only 70.00% to 80.00% of that of other platforms.

Of course, this can only be done after I introduce capital, because more advanced technologies often require greater financial support.Fortunately, we also have a visionary management team and strong shareholder support.

Looking at it from this perspective, it is the market that chose us, Huijing.

In fact, what the classmate just said is a bit wrong. The shares I currently hold are still about 30.00%. "

"His~~"

“Amazing, after so much investment, I can still retain a veto power…!”

After a burst of applause, Lu Tao continued:
"I don't know if Mr. An noticed that right after you went public, the share price of another Chinese company listed in the United States once rose by about [-]%, creating the largest single-day increase after the listing. The name of that company today I won’t go into details...but it is obvious that American investors are optimistic about China’s game live broadcast industry.

Does this mean that US$36 billion is just the beginning for Huijing, and there is still a lot of room for imagination in the future?As for Huijing or where will China's game live broadcast industry eventually go?Where are the opportunities and spaces? "

"Cough cough,"

Yi Huawei thought for a moment and smiled: "This topic is a bit big, so I'll just talk about it briefly.

We have seen a lot of trends recently. Just like those companies in the past, maybe the games in the past were mainly RPGs, but now they are slowly transforming into MOBA games. With the advancement of technology and the decrease in broadband costs, new games will become more and more popular in the future. The more suitable it is for the game live streaming platform.

In addition, we can see that the content penetration of game live broadcasts has been increasing, and more and more game users are switching to playing games because of watching game live broadcasts.Overall, I think this trend will become more and more obvious.The game live streaming industry may slowly become a very important channel for users to choose new games.

Deeply tied to the game industry, this is the business model that has been expected from the beginning of game live streaming.Judging from the development of the game industry in recent years, this trend has become increasingly obvious.You know, the game industry in China is already a huge market of more than 2000 billion yuan. How big is the space in this?No one can say clearly, but what is certain is that the imagination space is much larger than that of entertainment live broadcast.

In addition, with the vigorous development of e-sports events in China, the total number of viewers last year was nearly 200 billion. Compared with some traditional sports events, some strong e-sports events are no less competitive, and how big are traditional sports events? There is no need to say more about space. Whether it is European football or the four major leagues in North America, they are all giants.In the future, as a broadcast channel, how much profit can the game live broadcast platform share in this feast?It deserves our attention.

The final space for imagination lies in what celebrity anchors can bring to the game live broadcast platform. Judging from the trends in the past few years, some top anchors are no less than some second- and third-tier stars. They are increasingly appearing on major In terms of variety shows, these are things that entertainment live broadcasts have always wanted to do but failed to achieve.As for why there is such a difference, it is difficult to explain clearly. It can only be explained by different user attributes. Compared with users of entertainment live broadcasts, users of game live broadcast platforms are younger. They view these anchors from different perspectives. the same. "

Lu Tao smiled and nodded and said, "Thank you, Mr. An, for your explanation. Although I didn't understand some parts, I still don't understand it! By the way, it seems that many of the buzzwords like "I don't understand it" came from Huijing."

"Haha~, that's because our company is full of young people." Yi Huawei smiled: "Being able to say sentence patterns that are widely recognized by the public in a specific period also shows that we can still keep up with the trend. "

Huijing Network Company.

Qu Jiafan muttered: "Is the boss praising himself?"

"Watch TV carefully. When the boss comes back and asks you to have a heart-to-heart talk, you will know that you are wrong." Shang Qide glared at the fat man.

.........

"Will Mr. An continue to increase his efforts in live broadcasting of games or will he develop in other aspects?" Lu Tao continued to ask.

Smiling, Yi Huawei replied:

"The name of our company is Huijing Entertainment, so game live broadcast is only one part of it. Our live broadcast products cover PC, web, and mobile terminals. We have four major categories including online competitive games, stand-alone music games, mobile casual games, and entertainment variety shows.

Lin Xia looked at Yi Huawei talking freely on TV and couldn't help but said: "He is so rich now? 30.00% seven?"

He counted on his fingers, looked at Yang Zixi with wide eyes and said: "90 billion?"

Lin Xia swallowed and continued: "He has 90 billion, but he never thought of buying a company for you to play with?"

"Haha~, not to mention that they are shares, they can't be cashed out now..." Yang Zixi glanced at Lin Xia: "Do you think I am a career-minded person? Besides, I am not short of money!"

After a pause, he looked at the bedroom and smiled proudly: "This is the only son he has now. No matter whether he has another woman in the future, Tongtong is also the eldest son. The old lady recognized him and it was included in the family tree." . . . He is working for my son now."
