Rebirth of Cyber ​​Hegemony

"By the way, talk to major domestic record companies and say we want to buy their electronic music copyrights."

　　 "Electronic music copyright?"

　　 Li Nan is a little strange: "It seems that the songs on the Internet don't need money."

　　 "It's not that you don't need money, but all the songs on the Internet are pirated."

　　 Chen Yu is helpless.

　　 Even Li Nan feels that online songs don’t require money. If this continues to happen, it will be useless even if it is explicitly prohibited in the future.

"We are a formal enterprise, and we must take the lead in using the original. Moreover, the future music website war is actually a copyright war. Once the copyright awareness of the major record companies is awakened, once the country supports it, whoever has more music copyrights will be Can win this battle."

　　 QQ Music in the past life, NetEase Cloud Music...why it succeeded, it was the acquisition of a large number of music copyrights.

　　 As for Qianqianjingting, who was well-known before, there was no more movement after being acquired by Baidu.

　　Why does this happen, because Baidu does not pay attention to copyright.

　　 Similarly, because Baidu didn't pay attention to copyright, Baidu's mp3 super traffic business was cut off.

　　 It's not that Baidu doesn't want to do it, it's really too much pressure from above, they don't dare to piracy anymore.

　　 Of course, this is not just about music.

　　 In the video website war, it is also a copyright war.

　　 At this time, everyone is not aware of copyright, so you can get it all at a very low price.

　　 "I immediately sent someone to communicate with the major record companies."

　　 Although Li Nan could not predict the future situation, he also understood the importance of copyright.

　　 Once copyright is really valued in the future, the copyright in their hands is a huge treasure.

　　 Everything is going well.

　　 After Universal Technology came forward to communicate with the major record companies, the major record companies hardly refused.

　　 This is not surprising.

　　 The Internet has just developed, let alone ordinary netizens who have no awareness of electronic music copyrights, and major record companies have some cloud over the so-called electronic music copyrights. Coupled with the fact that there are countless audio sources that can be found in a random search on the Internet, they subconsciously have not thought about electronic music copyright at all.

　　 At this time, Huanyu Technology wants to buy it, so it’s simply a free money.

　　 Give money for nothing, why not do it?

　　 Of course, although I think so, the major record companies still guard against it.

　　Worrying that Universal Technology purchased these copyrights to engage in physical recordings, they restricted Huanyu Technology from making physical music recordings in the terms. For this, Huanyu Technology said that there is no problem. They have never thought of making physical records. They really only need electronic music copyrights.

　　 "Chen, it's done."

　　 "Great, how much did it cost?"

"50000000."

"so cheap."

　　 Chen Yu was extremely happy.

　　 "When they hear that we are buying the copyright of electronic music, they don't even talk about the price."

　　 "That's, this kind of free money, I won't bargain for me."

　　 Chen Yu said with a smile.

　　50 million seems to be a big number.

　　 But 50 million corresponds to about 500,000 songs.

Yes.

　　 According to statistics conducted by relevant departments, there are about 700,000 songs in China.

　　 There are more than 200,000 songs in the hands of some small record companies, some record companies have even closed down, and some are in the hands of individuals and cannot be bought temporarily. However, it doesn't matter. Basically, more than 99.9% of the most popular songs in the world are available here.

　　 The price of 500,000 songs is 50 million yuan.

　　 Such a calculation, the price of each song is only 100 yuan.

　　 It's not a bargain.

　　 Of course, at present, even if it is 100 yuan, many companies will not pay.

　　 In their words, if there are free ones, why do you need to spend money to buy the copyright?

　　 But Chen Yu is willing to be this fool first.

　　 Now he can spend 50 million renminbi to buy these songs back. In a few years, the number of songs in the 500,000 music library will increase by 10 times. Even if it is more than ten years later, it is possible to increase it by 100 times.

　　 "Oh, how about that search net?"

　　 "I bought it."

　　 "It's so easy, how much did it cost?"

"1000000."

　　 "Only 1 million."

　　 Chen Yu was surprised again.

　　 "Mr. Chen, 1 million is actually quite a lot. This is the price quoted by Xie Zhenyi, the founder of Search.com. At that time, he also felt that the quotation might be too high. In his heart, the price was 800,000, but I just agreed."

　　 "It shouldn't be."

　　 Chen Yu still finds it incredible.

Li Nan smiled and said: "Mr. Chen, you don’t know that although Sou.com has a lot of traffic, it really doesn’t make much money. Although everyone will go to Sou.com to search for songs, he can’t incur any expenses. Sou.com is currently the largest. Your business is advertising, but, Mr. Chen, you all know that the simple web advertising model nowadays can’t even survive a portal website, let alone a small music website."

　　 "Oh, I'm really scared of being poor."

　　 Chen Yu also understood.

　　 Although the Internet makes money, it must also make money.

　　In the early days, let alone making money, the Internet is simply a bottomless pit.

　　 Even if you are sitting on tens of millions of traffic, but the traffic cannot be realized, you can't escape death.

　　 QQ was so poor that it almost sold it for 600,000 yuan.

　　 But even now, it doesn’t make money just by QQ instant messaging.

　　 If you can hold on, maybe there will be a sunny day in the future.

　　 If you can't hold on, you may die every minute.

　　 This inadvertent reminder of Chen Yu's previous headmaster Wang's video website, with such a large amount of traffic, it would go bankrupt if he said it went bankrupt.

　　 It can be seen that traffic is a wonderful thing, but if you fail to realize the traffic, it is no use. "

　　 "How many employees on Sogua.com will come?"

　　 "Mr. Chen, you may not believe that there is only one person operating on Souguan."

"one person?"

"right."

Li Nan took out the information of the founder of Sogua.com: "The founder of Sogua.com is called Xie Zhenyi and graduated from the Department of Computer Science at Zhongda University. Before doing technical development at China Merchants Bank, he later created Sougua. Souguan went bankrupt, and only recently received some advertisements, barely able to maintain daily operations."

　　 "This is really similar to our Huanyu Technology back then."

　　 This inadvertently reminded Chen Yu of himself.

　　 There were only a few people in Huanyu Technology at the time.

　　 "Then is he coming?"

　　 The acquisition of this website is small, and Chen Yu values ​​people most.

　　 is a technical expert who can create a search network and create a mode of searching for mp3 audio sources. Naturally, Chen Yu wants to dig him under his own banner.

"Come."

　　 Li Nan said: "He said he would come over after a few days of cleaning up."

　　 "Well, call him to my office then."

"Yes."

　　……

　　 A few days later, Li Nan walked into Chen Yu's office with a man wearing glasses.

　　 Chen Yu looked at it, a typical engineering man + otaku.

　　 "Chen, this is Mr. Xie Zhenyi and Mr. Xie."

　　 "This is our manager Chen."

　　 "Please sit down."

　　Just when Chen Yu thought this man was like a traditional engineering man. Xie Zhenyi came to Chen Yu in an extremely enthusiastic trot, holding Chen Yu's hands tightly and saying: "Mr. Chen, my admiration for you is like a surging river, and like a flood of the Yellow River. ..."

"what's going on……"

　　 Chen Yu was taken aback and looked at Li Nan.

　　 Li Nan was also blinded, how did he know how Xie Zhenyi would make such a show.

　　 "Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie."

　　 Li Nan coughed heavily.

　　 But Xie Zhenyi smiled: "Mr. Li, really, I come from the heart."

　　 "Unexpectedly, Xie is always such a technical expert."

　　 Chen Yu smiled, feeling funny.

　　 "Mr. Chen, there is no way, he is very bored with the skills, so he stays at home every day and has to have some fun by himself."

　　 Xie Zhenyi is not like a traditional technical man. In Chen Yu's words, he is very funny.

　　 This makes Chen Yu feel a little kind.

　　 "Li Nan, you should be busy, I will have a chat with Mr. Xie."

　　 Chen Yu came to Xie Zhen, and sat down opposite him: "Mr. Xie, how about it? You are still used to being here."

　　 "Get used to it, I'm so used to it, you don't know that it is boring to make a website by yourself."

　　 "Then dare to love it."

　　 Chen Yu nodded with a smile: "Did Li always tell you about the current situation on our side."

　　 "President Li said something, these days I am also thinking about our direction."

　　 "Talk about it."

　　 "Mr. Chen, I think the legalization of our electronic music is very promising."

　　 "But there are so many piracy on the Internet now."

“It’s difficult to get rid of piracy, but it’s quite easy to get rid of a part of it. For example, Sou.com. This website was created by me before. If the company reports my infringement to the relevant authorities after obtaining the copyright, I will surrender every minute. ."

"Ha ha……"

　　 Chen Yule is over.

　　 "Mr. Chen, what I'm telling you is the truth. I do this part of the music website. Based on the information I have, most of the music website founders are doing it personally."

　　 "So what companies are doing?"

　　 "It would be better if you have a company. It is more effective to file a lawsuit directly with the court than to report to the relevant department."

"I think so too."

　　 Although Xie Zhenyi does not look like an ordinary technical man, Xie Zhenyi's answer Chen Yu is very satisfied.

　　The copyright is in hand, and it’s up to you to decide how to fight in the future.

　　 "Mr. Chen, I also made a music player?"

　　 "How did you think of being a music player?"

"I think the online music platform has a shortcoming. Although it can search or download various songs from the website~www.wuxiaspot.com~, everyone still likes to use a music player, like Qianqianjingting, although Qianqian Quiet Listening doesn't have much function, it's just a piece of software that collects music and plays it."

　　 "Convenience."

　　 "Mr. Chen is right. It is undoubtedly easier to open the music player than to enter the music website."

　　 "It seems that you have thought about everything. I just don't want you to be our YY music manager."

　　 Chen Yu made a joke.

　　 "Mr. Chen, the company bought my search website, isn't it just looking for talents who specialize in music."

　　 "You are quite confident. However, I really haven't considered holding you accountable."

"what……"

　　 Xie Zhen was stunned: "Don't, Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen, let me try it for a few months. Or, I will give Kugou to the company for free. How about giving me a good position?"

　　 "You are still bargaining in front of me."

　　 Chen Yu was defeated by Xie Zhenyi.

　　 He has never seen such a technical man.

　　 Just now, Chen Yu seems to remember something: "What did you just say, Kugou?"

　　 "What is Kugou?"

　　 "Kugou is the player I just mentioned."

　　 "Did you develop it?"

　　 "This...yes."

　　 Xie Zhenyi didn't understand, why Chen Yu asked this suddenly.
