Chapter 1172 Not Bad (4K)
Fang Zhuo watched the evening rehearsal at the Shanghai World Expo Performing Arts Center.
Counting, this is the first relatively complete evening rehearsal.
Although it is an online gala, Yike has done some work. Considering the problems of network lag and user viewing, the local Spring Festival Gala has also been used as an access channel. The rehearsal site has not been arranged in Luzhou, but has been set in Shencheng. .
The reason why the formal and relatively complete organization started in November is because the World Expo Performing Arts Center at the rehearsal site had just vacated the venue for the 11 Shanghai World Expo at the end of October.
In the future, Yike will upgrade the equipment and renovate the site here.
Even if Fang Zhuo provided an idea to change the venue of the party, the Performing Arts Center will continue to invest.
After confirming the general outline of the party, Yi Ke was looking for a suitable venue. It happened that Shencheng was considering how to continue to make profits for the venue after the World Expo, and the two hit it off.
Yike will change the name of the World Expo Performing Arts Center to "Yike Cultural Center" with a naming fee of 6 million in six years, and this naming fee also includes a renovation and upgrade.
If Fang Zhuo's impression is correct, this place was probably named after Mercedes-Benz, and it was the Mercedes-Benz Cultural Center. He did not expect that the planning department would take such a series of actions proactively because of the linkage of the online party.
Before the rehearsal started, Fang Zhuo walked around the venue for a while accompanied by a group of people, and couldn't help but said: "This venue is really good, it will be better to name it for two years."
"Okay, Mr. Fang, let's talk about it again. The main intention has been implemented. Our communication with Oriental Pearl New Media Company is quite pleasant. This is also a relatively rare naming event in China." Shi Mingdong from the Planning Department took advantage of the boss Interested, I said a few more words, "They should be willing to extend the time, eight or ten years is not a big problem."
Fang Zhuo nodded slightly, and he said it casually.
When everyone was seated, Xiong Xiaoge, who was watching the rehearsal together, couldn't help talking about the madness of Penguin's bidding.
"Pony is completely devastated by the letter this time. He has spent at least 5% of this year's revenue all at once."
Penguin's revenue last year was 120 billion. According to its quarterly financial report forecast, it is expected to exceed 200 billion for the whole year.
It is precisely because of this high growth rate that this year's Penguin stock price is still rising despite the fierce competition in the communication market.
Last year, before the release of Yike Yixin, Penguin recovered from the financial crisis, and its market value peaked at 223 billion U.S. dollars. After a year, its current market value exceeded 300 billion U.S. dollars.
Even though the letter was suppressed, Penguin's share price rose by 34.5%.
However, in view of the 74% increase of Baidu in the same period, and in view of the fact that Baidu has been opened up by the US$380 billion Baidu, there is reason to believe that Penguin has lost at least US$50 billion in the past year because of Yike's entry.
Can the original Penguin rise to $350 billion?Can it rise to $400 billion?
Some people commented regretfully on this, why bother to touch Zhou Hongyi in the first place?
It was that movement that made Yi Ke furious into the red clothes, causing trouble ever since.
However, the market value belongs to the market value, which is a matter of the secondary market. At the company level, Penguin’s revenue this year is expected to be 200 billion, and the profit estimate can be around 80 billion. This time the bidding cost 5% of the revenue, 13% profit...
No wonder he was considered insane...
Now, as the user scale and active users of Yixin and Lixin gradually become clear, the power struggle between Yike and Penguin behind it is gradually being discussed on stage.
Penguin used to be the overlord of communications, with a traffic moat, enough to drown out opponents who coveted this field, and didn't care who was on the other side.
However, Yike has gained a firm foothold in the field of mobile communications by using a package of popular events, PCs to mobile, and Spring Festival Gala marketing, and it will be able to launch a steady stream of strength.
Yi Ke crossed the river, and the pawns landed. There was no way to snipe, but to fight for strangulation.
The problem is that Yike is developing based on the global market, and it seems to be a menacing international giant.
In the past, the domestic Internet has encountered competition from international giants, such as eBay, Amazon, and Google, but they are all Chinese businesses of international giants, and now Yike is the local business of international giants...
It only forced Penguin to seek cooperation with the Spring Festival Gala at a sky-high price, hoping to use the same moves to turn the tide of the battle and defeat Yi Ke.
"Pony is really ruthless this time. If it doesn't work this time, he may have to push QQ to the front of the stage." Fang Zhuo looked at the busy staff on the stage and said thoughtfully.
The input resources for market competition always need to be allocated. Penguin hoped to have a sub-product that can be independently benchmarked, and it has indeed successfully pushed the letter to tens of millions of users, but... this is not enough.
According to Yike's observation, Penguin seems to be intensifying its efforts to promote QQ recently. I don't know if there is any strategic shift.
However, the product positioning of QQ has already taken shape, which does not make Yixin particularly worried.
"Penguin is doing marketing this time, you don't really want to use a large annual meeting to compete?" Xiong Xiaoge noticed the analysis of the media in the past two days, and just walked by and heard some reports.
However, everything is a bit whimsical, can the iconic party still be shaken?
"It's just a shake of the active user group." Fang Zhuo replied, "If the CCTV Spring Festival Gala can't get cooperation, the local Spring Festival Gala will have to get a few more. As long as there is no big gap between additions and subtractions, it will be fine."
It is also necessary to grasp the node of the "collection of blessings" activity, and not give the opponent enough time to react.
What Yi Ke has to do this time is to pull the letter back into the pot where the frog was boiled in warm water.
Xiong Xiaoge nodded thoughtfully, the core business battle between these two giants might really be a success or failure.
No matter who wins, it will have to record a heavy stroke in the history of China's Internet development.
He still wanted to speak, but he saw that the host on stage had already started to announce the curtain, and soon the first program would appear in front of him.
Um?Liu, Zhang, Li, Guo?
Uh-huh? ?
Xiong Xiaoge was stunned, and the first program he saw was "Friends" sung by the Four Heavenly Kings of Xiangjiang on the same stage.
He was about to speak when he choked on his own saliva.
As the chief director who organized and prepared for this gala, Tang Peifeng has been paying attention to Mr. Fang's expression. Seeing that his expression is not fluctuating, he said in a low voice: "We discussed and thought that it would be better for them to start the show. Unfortunately, if someone agrees to the CCTV Spring Festival Gala Invitation from the side, this order can only be moved to the back, we still hope that they will appear together."
The surprises and public opinion that appeared together are relatively easy to hype.
The four heavenly kings have different personalities, and all four of them have received the latest invitation from CCTV Spring Festival Gala. According to current understanding, Liu Dehua tends to agree if he can stagger the time, Liming is noncommittal, Guo Fucheng is not very happy, and Zhang Xueyou has clearly refused.
Tang Peifeng learned from them that CCTV didn't seem to consider that this was a performance on the same stage, and the invitation meant to sing, and it seemed that as long as there was a king of heaven on stage, the meaning would be there.
Liu Dehua took the initiative to communicate with Tang Peifeng, hoping to coordinate. If Yi Ke moved to the back, there would be time to catch up.
Yi Ke relied on all aspects of influence to invite people over. Tang Peifeng and the others considered maintaining the integrity of the party, as long as there were, as long as they could attend, they were not so overbearing as to prohibit these artists from going to other places.
Yike is positioned as an influential organization.
However, after all, Tang Peifeng joined the company not long ago, and he was more determined about this position after he clearly knew that Mr. Fang's attitude was not so dark, and he became more confident in his heart.
Facing Director Tang's explanation, Fang Zhuo just nodded slightly, without giving any comments.
After hearing it, Xiong Xiaoge said in disbelief, "You guys really want to steal the ratings? Then if the four kings start the show, how will they line up at the back?"
Tang Peifeng explained: "I'm still thinking about it. I have invited the Rolling Stones, but they haven't come yet. Our rehearsal is not complete this time, because the range of invitations is relatively wide, and the order depends on the effect."
Xiong Xiaoge said "Oh" and saw that the second rehearsal was also a chorus, Liang Jingru, Sun Yanzi, Lin Yilian, and Jolin Tsai sang "I Only Care About You".
He suddenly discovered that these two groups of singers sang the songs of their predecessors. The previous "Friends" was written by Alan Tam, but now it is written by Teresa Teng.
While listening to the chorus, Xiong Xiaoge listened to Tang Peifeng's thoughts on the arrangement of the party.
Fang Zhuo listened for a while, then suddenly asked, "Where's Wang Fei?"
He still remembered the last time he met at CCTV. She also belonged to his own company, so he remembered it this time.
"The arrangement is for a solo." Tang Peifeng replied.
Xiong Xiaoge thought about it, there are nine well-known male and female singers, how can the other programs be arranged?
Soon, as the rehearsal progressed, the plan for the party part was presented to him.
——Michael Arma, the world's top magician.
——Liu Qian, a well-known magician in China.
——Beyond "Broad Sea and Sky" by Huang Guanzhong, Huang Jiaqiang, and Ye Shirong.
——"We Are Changping People" by Queen.
——Shencheng Acrobatic Troupe's large-scale acrobatic drama "Battle Shanghai".
——The classic play "KOOZA" by Cirque du Soleil.
And, Wang Fei's "Legend", Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On", the new dance rehearsal "Dunhuang Tiannv", Paris Opera Ballet's "Swan Lake"...
Xiong Xiaoge took a moment to recollect the finale, and found that this lottery ruled out the great reputation of the lineup, as well as the obvious contrast between China and foreign countries.
Heavenly kings and queens, Chinese and foreign magic, popular singers, rock PK, acrobatic circus, classic re-editing and classic reappearance...a set of incomplete rehearsals...
"What's wrong with your gala? It's not a Spring Festival gala at all..." Xiong Xiaoge said with an extremely intuitive feeling.
"Our positioning is an Internet gala, which is different from the traditional Spring Festival gala." Tang Peifeng has spent a lot of effort, which will see Mr. Xiong's shock and pride, "Our thoughts It is to let any program be played.”
Xiong Xiaoge agreed with the idea of "being able to fight", thought carefully for a moment, and said, "It seems that the taste of the new year is a bit off."
"The Cantonese lion dance and the Chinese dragon dance are not on today, and everyone is still thinking about how to make this more exciting." Tang Peifeng also nodded, "We didn't do traditional language programs. The taste of the year is indeed not as good as the traditional Spring Festival Gala, just a single Be king, two by two PK."
Single is king, any program can be played.
Two-two PK is to allow similar themes in different regions to interact with each other.
Tang Peifeng thought about doing a real-time popularity ranking at that time, but the feedback link was still under discussion, and the goal was still user fission, but it belonged to a younger group that was more likely to be active in IM software.
He now knows that Yike's gala is for Yixin's service, there are not so many rules and regulations, and it has to be supplemented by combining the red envelopes sponsored by the local Spring Festival Gala. The goal is to pick up or snipe the exclusives that Penguin just got.
Xiong Xiaoge reluctantly picked out the shortcomings, and the rest was full of praise.
This is indeed not like the Spring Festival Gala, but the lineup and excitement... To be conservative, it may not lose to the Spring Festival Gala.
The Spring Festival Gala is not as free as Yi Ke's side. Even if you invite artists from Yi Ke's gala, you can't all come to the stage at once.
oh!Found the feeling!
One brain!
Xiong Xiaoge ended his praise with an exclamation: "You all just stuffed classic shows on it."
Tang Peifeng nodded with a smile: "Basically, Mr. Xiong, but we also made some new dances like "Dunhuang Tiannv", which can be regarded as some innovative elements."
The main reason is that the resources are too good. Most of the programs he named were obtained by all means. Instead, he needed to screen again, and finally controlled the programs to 35.
Tang Peifeng has never fought such a battle for resources.
He felt the praise from well-known domestic investors, and suddenly found that the boss hadn't commented yet, so he mustered up his courage and asked, "Mr. Fang, do you think there is anything we need to correct in this rehearsal?"
Since Tang Peifeng confirmed that he came to PPS, he has been working overtime every day, and he is excited every day. Today is the first time he has met the big boss, and he is extremely looking forward to his feelings.
Fang Zhuo was a little distracted, and thought about other things for a while, then nodded and said, "Well, not bad."
Tang Peifeng: "..."
gone?Mr. Fang, is this gone?
Hard work day and night, excited and excited, pointing Jiang Shang, preparing for the Spring Festival Gala...
Fang Zhuo turned his head and saw that Director Tang's expression was a bit unnatural, and suddenly realized that he was being perfunctory, and said with a smile: "It's very exciting, I invited Mr. Xiong to watch it together, I was so shocked that I was immersed in it, and then I returned god."
Tang Peifeng took a breath, Mr. Fang, thank you for your serious perfunctory.
He understood Mr. Fang's point of view. What he wanted to watch was not the wonderful party, the serious arrangement, Yi Xin's New Year's results, or the penguin's catching up.
The resources have already been given, and whether the party is wonderful or not is something that my team should pay attention to.
Fang Zhuo stood up, smiled at Director Tang, and signaled him to continue the rehearsal and summary of the rehearsal here, and he ended the viewing trip with Lao Xiong and his colleagues.
Xiong Xiaoge walked a few steps, couldn't help laughing and said: "Good guy, your party looks like it's going to be successful, CCTV has to call Yi Ke."
"It's okay, we've helped raise its bidding price." Fang Zhuo said nonchalantly, "The party is quite exciting, I hope young people like it."
Xiong Xiaoge thought it was very exciting, and he said: "Young people should like it. Even if you have a rehearsal like this today, I am afraid that if the industry knows about your strong lineup, you may offend others. Hey, but you are too lice and don't itch. , not afraid of offending people."
Fang Zhuo shook his head: "No."
"Oh? Have you greeted CCTV?" Xiong Xiaoge asked.
"No, it's not that I offended anyone, but it involves the core business dispute between Yike and Penguin, which is related to the vitality of the enterprise." Fang Zhuo said disapprovingly, "This may be the basis of a market value of tens of billions of dollars. They If you know this, you shouldn't have any grudges, and everyone is evened out."
Xiong Xiaoge understands, it's not that Mr. Fang invites all the stars to offend others, it's that this is too important to Yi Ke, others don't offend him, just mean it...
