Chapter 343 New Year’s End Is Coming 【Two in One】

"I see, thank you Brother Bai." Li Yi smiled and hung up the phone in his hand.

When he put down the phone, he frowned slightly and stared slightly. The news from Bai Ye was too sudden, and he was not mentally prepared.

Origin Fiction Network suddenly reclaimed the copyright of its authors at this critical point that had just stabilized?
Li Yi couldn't figure out the key point.

After all, the Xingchen Chinese website is still watching covetously.

However, Li Yi is not an internal staff member of Yuanyuan Novel Network after all, and it is difficult to ask Bai Ye for some things too thoroughly.

After thinking for a long time, Li Yi only thought of one reason.

The Apocalypse Group is about to have an accident!

For such a major event as copyright recovery, it is still at such a critical moment that the top management of Yuanyuan Novel Network may not be able to make such a decisive decision.

So behind this must be the inspiration of Tianqi Group.

But why did Tianqi Group make such a self-digging choice at this critical moment?

Li Yi suddenly remembered that at the annual meeting of the origin of Shanghai, he heard some drunk authors say that Tianqi Group intends to sell the website.

Li Yi didn't care about it before. After all, the development of Yuanyuan Novel.com is still good, and it can make some profits every year.

But now thinking of the actions of Tianqi Group, I am afraid it is really possible.

And Li Yi thought about it for a while, and felt that it was very possible.

Although Apocalypse Games is considered a milestone company in Huaxia Internet, the glory of this company is only in the early development of Huaxia Internet. The only thing worth talking about is the company's game industry. Other aspects of influence , actually not much.

Therefore, since entering the mobile Internet era, the influence of Tianqi Group has been declining repeatedly. The entire group has no star flagship products worth talking about, and it all relies on the old foundation of the past.

However, it has been rumored on the Internet before that Chen Jianghe, the iron-fisted helm of the Apocalypse Group, has rarely dabbled in the Internet industry. Recently, he is engaged in investment and traditional industries. If it were not for the Internet products such as Apocalypse Games and Apocalypse Literature, I am afraid that Apocalypse Group would no longer be involved. What are the characteristics of Internet companies.

But now, if the news Bai Ye told him is true, I am afraid that Tianqi Group will completely get rid of its own Internet company department and take its final step towards investment companies and industrial companies.

However, this news actually has an impact on Li Yi.

Nowadays, Li Yi has long looked down on the manuscript fees of Yuanyuan Novel.com, but Li Yi still needs the popularity of the entire online literary circle.

But for the sake of popularity, it is impossible to hand over the copyright of the novel to others.

Li Yi touched his chin and thought for a while.

Duo duo.

Two knocks on the door sounded, and in Li Yi's voice, Zhang Lingyun, wearing a black suit and flesh-colored stockings, walked into the office holding documents.

"Mr. Li, this is the monthly financial report of the short video department. You need to sign it." Zhang Lingyun walked to Li Yi with a smile, took out a document from the folder in his hand, and placed it on Li Yi in front of.

Li Yi lowered his head, picked up the document and glanced roughly, then took out his pen and wrote his name.

Then he raised his hand and handed the document to Zhang Lingyun.

"Assistant Zhang, go and collect information about Tianqi Group, especially his Internet assets." Li Yi said to Zhang Lingyun.

"Okay, I'll do it right away."

Zhang Lingyun nodded without the slightest hesitation, then walked out the door with the document in her hand.

Not long after, Zhang Lingyun gave Li Yi the information disclosed recently by Tianqi Group, which was still approximate.

Li Yi picked it up and observed it carefully.

Because Apocalypse Group has never been listed, there are almost no latest financial reports on the Internet.The document in Li Yi's hands is also the Tianqi Group's attempt to go public in the United States a few years ago, and made a company's financial report. Although it still failed to go public in the end, this company's asset structure plan became the latest Apocalypse Group announced its financial situation.

Li Yi picked it up and looked at it for a while, and then found something in it.

As early as a few years ago, it can be seen in the documents of Tianqi Company that Tianqi Company has begun to involve in the investment field and some traditional industrial fields.

I have a bottom in my heart.

Li Yi was thinking about Bai Ye's news.

Tianqi Group may really want to sell off the Internet industry.

At present, the largest Internet assets in the hands of Tianqi Group should be Tianqi games and Tianqi literature.

Li Yi has no interest in the former.

But for the latter, Li Yi is very interested.

Although Li Yi has a system in his hands, he can obtain the culture of another world.

But no matter how popular Li Yi is, he can't bring all the cultures of the entire different world over.

However, Apocalypse Literature itself is a natural treasure house, which contains the accumulation of millions of online literature authors over the past decade. This is a rich treasure house of resources. If it can be developed, it can definitely create unlimited potential.

So Li Yi is very interested in the Apocalypse literature transaction case.

"Is there any other news? For example, information about the transaction of Internet assets." Li Yi raised his head and asked Zhang Lingyun.

"No." Zhang Lingyun shook her head.

Li Yi nodded, he could understand.

Muyi Company is still too small at present. Although it has unlimited potential, it really can't afford the money to participate in the acquisition of the entire Apocalypse Literature.

Apocalypse Literature is seven websites including the origin novel website, of which the origin novel website is the most important, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the other six websites are free.

As for Origin Fiction.com, which occupies half of the entire online literature market, it is worth several billion yuan. Adding in other odds and ends, the value may exceed the tens of billions.

100 billion is still a terrible cash flow for the current Muyi Company.

Therefore, with the size of Muyi Company, it is not even qualified to participate.

However, Li Yi is not in a hurry. The time and procedures required for asset acquisitions of tens of billions or even tens of billions are a long process.

So Li Yi asked Zhang Lingyun to pay attention to this information first.

Plan and then move.

Then Li Yi logged in to the author's background of the origin novel website, which he hadn't logged in for a long time.

Li Yi had finished Yang Shen a long time ago, and then uploaded it to the author's backend of the Origin Novel Network, with three chapters fixed every day, making it unbeatable.

Now, after nearly a year of serialization, Yangshen has also come to an end.

When Li Yi logged into the background, he found that there were less than 3 words left and it was about to end.

And Yangshen has remained in the top three of several hot lists since it was put on the shelves. Even though several million words have passed, the popularity is still undiminished.

Li Yi thought for a while, then wrote a testimonial for the finale, and uploaded it to the storage box.

three days later.

"Yang Shen" ushered in the final finale.

"Finish flowering!"

"It's really cool to watch."

"Wait for the new book!"

And at this time, the final testimonial was also sent out.

Many readers watched it one after another.

However, after reading it, many readers frowned.

Because Li Yi said in his testimonials that he would take a few days off before publishing a new book.

This made everyone wonder.

Are you still the explosive king?
you've changed!
However, many readers also expressed their understanding.

So I waited patiently.

But as time got longer and Li Yi didn't move, everyone discovered that the problem seemed to be not as simple as they thought.

Immediately afterwards, a piece of heavy news came out.

Yuanyuan Fiction Network reclaims the copyright of all its authors' novels.

As soon as this remark came out, people in the entire Internet circle exploded.

And judging from the strength of this time, people found that Yuanyuan Novel.com is determined to recover the author's copyright this time.

At this time, someone linked the reason for Li Yi's delay in publishing the book with this notice.

"It must be that Zhouyi and Yuanyuan have fallen apart."

"I want to read a new book!"

Countless readers wailed in pain.

Countless authors also wailed happily.

This time, no new website came out to save them like a god descending from the earth.

So a year late, the copyright recovery plan of Yuanyuan Novel Network has started.

Because I have the original signing contract in hand, the terms in it are also very unfavorable to the author, so facing the domineering behavior of Yuanyuan Novel.com, countless people jumped out to fight Yuanyuan. There is no power to parry.

So in the end, except for some of the top authors, Yuanyuan finally took over the copyright of the novels of all its authors.

So this new year is very sad for most Internet authors.

In fact, the biggest loss of copyright recovery is the interests of top authors, which is completely meaningless to ordinary writers.

After all, only the novel copyright of top authors will have the need for copyright development.

So although many authors are angry and dissatisfied.

But the authors who really jump out and prepare to leave the origin are still some great gods. In fact, the middle and low-level authors are actually eating melons during this time known as the "War of Internet Literature".

With Origin's copyright recovery program coming to an end.

Almost all authors have their copyrights taken away.

But there are a few exceptions.

That is the origin of several supreme gods.

Their contracts are different from ordinary authors, and more of an equal relationship with the website, so it is difficult for the website to take back the copyright in their hands.

So after the dust settled.

Everyone thought that Zhou Yi had avoided the limelight and was about to start a book, but after waiting, they found that Li Yi still hadn't released a new novel.

So many people ran to Li Yi's Weibo to urge new books every day, and it even became a rare sight.

In the imperial capital, the first snow is just about to fall, and the snow fell later this year.

And Li Yi was sitting in the office, wearing a thin sweater, looking at the readers on Weibo who urged new books every day, and smiled.

It's not enough that Li Yi is not ready to do what they want.

Because Li Yi has a bigger goal at the moment.

Currently, under the operation of Ji Ran, the games under Lianshan Games have begun to land in overseas markets one after another. Of course, the most important thing is "Clash of Clans". After all, several other stand-alone games have long been sold on foreign game platforms. Don't know how many servings.

Moreover, the advertising revenue of Xuanyin's short video has also ushered in a round of explosion, and now its monthly revenue has exceeded that of the game department.Now it can bring hundreds of millions of yuan in net profit to Muyi Company every month, and this income is still growing at a very high speed.

The company has embarked on a fast track of rapid development.

As the boss of the company, although Li Yi has delegated power as much as possible, there are always some things that he has to deal with personally, but these things that must be done by him still take up a lot of Li Yi's time every day.

So under various considerations, Li Yi was going to put aside the issue of writing novels first.

After all, at present, the most important thing for him to write novels is popularity.

However, there is not a big gap in Li Yi's popularity at present, and he is not in a hurry to use it, so Li Yi is not in a hurry to harvest the popularity of the Internet circle.

And the end of the year is approaching, and Muyi Company has also begun to prepare for the annual leave for its employees.

And after the liquidation company information at the end of the year.

Li Yi was also taken aback when he saw the size of the company, and saw that the company had already had a team of close to 1000 people without knowing it.

Among them, the short video department has the largest number of people. At present, the number of people is close to 300. This is all because of the rapid expansion of Xuanyin software. Most of these people are technicians.

Then came Lianshan Games. Currently Lianshan Games is divided into several small working groups. Each group is responsible for a game and game platform. The largest of them is the group that maintains "Clash of Clans". Currently, the entire department also has small working groups. Three hundred people.

As for the Soul Animation Department, the Special Effects Department of Kaitiandidi, and the company in Shanghai that is responsible for the overseas market expansion of games.

Lin Lin finally left the company and already has a thousand employees.

Looking at the dense crowd, Li Yi suddenly felt a little emotional.

It's only been a year, and the company has already grown to such a huge size.

And Li Yi glanced at the annual financial report.

Excluding costs, the company's current annual profit is close to 40 billion yuan.

For a company that has just been established for only one year, it seems to be a myth.

But it actually happened.

In addition to the more than 20 billion profit brought by Lingxin Animation from "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World", other profits were contributed by Lianshan Games and Xuanyin Short Video.

Among them, the profitability of Xuanyin short video is getting stronger and stronger.

If it wasn't for Li Yi's early words to let Mao Sui put more energy on user experience and product optimization at this stage, I am afraid that the ability to attract money from Xuanyin's short videos will be even more terrifying.

But right now, Xuanyin's ability to absorb money still surprised everyone.

The precise advertising delivery model of big data + artificial intelligence, coupled with the huge traffic of Xuanyin short video, has caused the advertising cost to rise all the way.

This advertising expense is Xuanyin’s sole share.

Although big data and artificial intelligence are not rare things nowadays, for many companies, it is easy to get started but difficult to master.

For example, Kuaishou, who is also a short video.

They will not be able to rely on precise calculations to push short videos to attract more users like Xuanyin.

So it can be said that the entire Huaxia Xuanyin short video has the only gold-absorbing ability.

However, although the current Xuanyin users are growing rapidly, it still encounters the bottleneck of the user ceiling, but the employees of Xuanyin's short video are holding back their energy.

They all already knew that Li Yi had spent 15 billion sky-high advertising fees on them.

So although the annual leave is approaching, the employees of the entire short video department did not relax in the slightest, and they all worked hard to welcome the new year.
