Chapter 1312 Movie Website(1/2)

Back to the hotel, it was around eight o'clock in the evening.

Zhou Buqi felt that it was still early and the company's senior executives had not yet gotten off work, so he held a video conference and invited Zhang Yiming, He Yang, Meng Houkun, and Guo Dan to participate.

Mainly talking about the macro-policy issues of enclosing land and building buildings, using investment to stimulate the local economy, and participating in the 4 trillion plan.

There is no way, the situation is forcing it.

The state distributes money to outsiders as if it has a quota, and it doesn't matter if the money collected is less.

Since you want to build a building, let’s build it!

Ziweixing is currently mainly distributed in four cities in China, the capital, Pengcheng, Magic City and Spring City. There is also UC's headquarters in Yangcheng and a branch in Hangcheng.

The coverage is indeed a bit small.

Especially for cloud computing business, we must cast a wide net. According to estimates given by the technical committee, Ziwei Cloud will have at least 5-8 national-level super data centers in the domestic market, and another 20

Around regional data centers, the number of small cloud data centers scattered in various places should reach 200.

Every data center means a branch office.

Don't consider anything too far ahead.

First, we must lay out several important cities in the country, such as the capital, Magic City, Jinmen, Pengcheng, Yangcheng, Hangzhou, Yucheng, Jinling, Jiangcheng, Chang'an, Binhai, Spring City, Star City, Island City, Shangdu, Fengtian, etc.

land.

Such a large-scale land enclosure and building building plan may be difficult to complete in a short period of time. We can first approve the land and help local officials complete the investment recruitment task. We can slowly plan and build buildings in 3-5 years.

Just complete the layout within.

Guo Dan, who was in charge of this stall, had his head buzzing.

She resigned from the system.

It was quite comfortable at first. The salary was high, the treatment was good, the working environment was relaxed, and there were not so many intrigues and complications. Unexpectedly, the workload was quite heavy.

Currently, Ziweixing's ongoing real estate projects include the Capital Headquarters, Pengcheng Headquarters, Capital Cloud Data Center, Pengcheng Cloud Data Center, Spring City Branch Customer Service Building, and Spring City Cloud Data Center, a total of 6 major projects!

It's good now, the heavier tasks have been put down.

During the video conference, Zhou Buqi also said: "Guo Dan, you will come over tomorrow. Today I have agreed with the leaders here in Hangzhou that I will participate in the construction of their high-tech development zone...Alibaba, Hundsun Electronics

The new headquarters are there, and we will go there and build a Ziweixing Hangyan Building. On the one hand, it will deepen cooperation with Alibaba, and on the other hand, it will also help promote the development of the subsequent e-commerce and cloud computing business."

He Yang said: "I met with the president of Hundsun Electronics today."

"What's the matter?"

"It's nothing more than cooperation. They are engaged in IT finance. They want to cooperate with Toutiao and Weibo, and they also have some needs in software development and network security. There is no way, and it will be difficult for them."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "With Ali here, it's quite difficult."

Hangzhou is not a technology center. Twenty years ago, there was a saying of "beautiful West Lake, shabby Hangzhou". The reason why this city has occupied a place in the country in the Internet field is mainly because of Alibaba.

The top students from Zhejiang University are all selected by Alibaba first, and only those who are left behind by Alibaba can go to other companies. There is no other way, so Hundsun Electronics can only go to the capital to open a branch, trying to find talents in the capital to do some technical development.

You can only find other people's unwanted ones.

What Hundsun Electronics does is to complete financial transactions such as securities, futures, and funds through software. This requires very high security levels and must be ensured to be foolproof.

That is to say, today's stock investors and citizens have not yet awakened. They are still doing transactions through banks, paying extremely high handling fees, and enjoying the services of the bank's "financial experts". When you understand later, you will learn to do it through online platforms.

Once the transaction is completed, the amount of data to be processed will be larger.

Ziweixing Engineering Institute will provide high-end technology outsourcing services and can help.

After the meeting, Zhou Buqi looked at the time and went for a run on the treadmill. Sun Wanran ran over and said with a smile: "There is good news just now!"

"What?"

"For the company!"

"Stop talking nonsense. I just finished a meeting with Zhang Yiming, He Yang and the others, and they told me the good news."

"It's from abroad!"

Sun Wanran pinched her waist and wrinkled her nose.

Zhou Buqi controlled his breathing and jogged, and said casually: "What's going on abroad?"

Sun Wanran said quickly: "Don't you want to buy a batch of movie-related websites? We have already negotiated with two companies. It's just a bit expensive. It seems that the quotation is nearly 50 million US dollars."

"What website is so expensive?"

"One is Rotten Tomatoes and the other is Flixster."

"Oh, that's not strange."

The film industry is a bit stronger than the football industry, and the entire model is very traditional. For example, Rotten Tomatoes and Flixster, one is a movie review website and the other is a movie social networking website, are both profitable!

Together, these two websites are an enhanced version of Douban, but Douban’s profitability is still far away.

And because of the profit, it can be sold at a good price.

Sun Wanran then elaborated again.

When Ign Entertainment acquired Rotten Tomatoes in 2004, it spent US$10 million. In 2005, News Corporation spent US$650 million to acquire Ign Entertainment. Now, News Corporation is losing money and wants to sell off some poorly managed and underperforming Internet companies.

Business, Rotten Tomatoes is the worst.

Priced at $14 million.

In addition, the flixster website also has a movie review function. Because it undertakes the online ticket sales business, it can take commissions from it, so its performance is very good.

Last year, Hollywood tycoon Barry Diller's IAC Group wanted to acquire Flixster, and the other party's offer was US$100 million!

We had already agreed to sign the contract.

But before signing, Barry Diller felt that the price was too expensive and not worth it. He thought it should not exceed US$50 million and wanted to lower the price on the spot. This is what Hollywood is best at, bullying new or foreign actors through this trick.

The flixster team felt insulted and terminated the negotiations.

Unexpectedly, only a year later, it could not even be sold for US$50 million.

What Ziweixing promised was US$5 million in cash, plus US$30 million worth of stocks.

Sun Wanran said enthusiastically: "The largest movie database in the world now is IMDB. If Rotten Tomatoes and Flixster are integrated, it will have more than 250,000 movie information, 1.8 billion user comments, 300,000 professional film reviews, and

With more than 20,000 trailers and video content, it can challenge imdb's number one position in the industry."

"How do you know so clearly?"

"The information has been sent over and I have read it. It is also said that after the successful integration of the two websites, it is expected to have more than 30 million users per month. If our yikyak promotion is launched, it will be even more."

"Don't be so excited."

"Why? How great is this! Didn't you say you want to build a film ecosystem through the Internet?"

"Forget it, let's stop running. Let's take a shower and try another way of exercising." Zhou Buqi turned off the treadmill and pulled her to the bathroom.

Sun Wanran gave him a big eye roll, with a bit of reserve on her pretty face, and whispered: "The United States is still waiting. Will this deal be approved?"

"How can such a large amount of money be approved on the spot?"

Zhou Buqi was also a little helpless.

This is a question of trust.

If Zhang Yiming, Guo Pengfei and others want to approve 50 million U.S. dollars for a project, that's absolutely fine. As long as the decision-making committee approves it, they can spend the money however they want and they can just let it go.

But land vehicles are different.

He cannot have this privilege.

Sun Wanran blinked, as if he had noticed something, and asked curiously: "Don't you trust Lu Qi? He... I think he is quite trustworthy."

Zhou Buqi said: "I also believe that his hands and feet are clean, but we can't give him any illusion. We approved such a large sum of money without even looking at it. It's too indulgent. It's not a good thing for him or the company."

"What should we do?"

"Go ahead and make arrangements. We will go to Pengcheng tomorrow afternoon to resolve the palace fight between Zhen Yu and Pei Yao."

"oh."

Sun Wanran was a little stunned, shook off his hand, and wanted to go back and call to make arrangements.

Zhou Buqi hugged her over and said, "Why are you so anxious? You can't tell which thing is more important? You can't tell the priority! Exercise more, it's good for your physical and mental health!"

Sun Wanran blushed, "I'm going to be bullied to death by you today."

Zhou Bu said in a dilemma: "What should we do? How about... I think the waitresses in this hotel are quite beautiful. Go and ask and pay some money to invite them over."

"Pfft!" Sun Wanran smiled and pushed him, "Are you disgusting? Even the waiter wants it, your taste is really bad."

Zhou Buqi said sternly: "This is called equality for everyone. You must not discriminate based on position."



The next day, Zhou Buqi and Guo Dan called on the reluctant Lao Ma to talk to local officials and discussed the issue of investing in building buildings in the high-tech development zone.

This development zone is Hangzhou's largest investment project in recent years, with a financial allocation of more than 150 billion yuan. Of which, 10 billion yuan will be allowed to be used as financial subsidies to attract investment.

In other words, Ziweixing does not need to spend a penny to invest here. It can get the project started with subsidies and loans. Then it can create jobs and tax revenue for the local area.
