Since 1983

Virus is too eye-catching.

As a movie starring a Chinese-language star, with a box office of more than 100 million US dollars, but not released in mainland China, although pirated copies are circulating, many people still look forward to seeing the official version.

The video site has a comment function, not a barrage.

It's another feeling to communicate with a group of mutual fans under the movies you like, compared with BBS.

There is no problem with the number of clicks, there is only one problem:

Hey, why is it stuck again?!

What website, old man!

Mom, it's time for our family to install broadband!

Is it good to install broadband?

On Sohu's side, Tang Jian organized a meeting.

The registered users of the video site have exceeded 500,000, and 80% of them have signed in for more than three days in a row, but I don't think they are the main force converted into paid users.

Signing in can only show diligence, not necessarily willingness to consume. Those who don't sign in may not be short of money, and we can't ignore it.

I agree!

I agree!

The fee will be a little bit, I think it can be launched next year, and there is room for very loyal users who don't have much money. But as long as you become a VIP user, you can enjoy the best service.

By the way, Mr. Xu specifically told him not to engage in VVIP.

What is VVIP?

It's just that I pay to watch movies, but when there are particularly popular movies online, I still have to spend money, but it's a little less than ordinary users.

That's too shameless?

Shameless shameless!

The biggest problem at present is the bandwidth, and the general response is very slow. There is no way, we have a strong publicity, and there are too many people online at the same time.

Well, let's gradually upgrade this.

Tang Jian concluded: Video websites need to cultivate users, especially if we insist on making genuine ones, we must be prepared to be unprofitable or even lose money for a long time.

Mr. Xu fully supports this project, don't worry about being cut off, everyone cheers!

In short, the video site quickly gathered popularity, and even Juzi.com became popular. The more people watch the film, the more people rate it.

Historically, the three major portals have all achieved profitability this year.

Sohu mainly relies on advertising, which is obviously the benefit brought by the growth of the Internet market. The decisive factor may not be Sals, but it must be related.

But now that Xu Fei has started a game, with two cash cows, Sohu doesn't have to force him haha.

…………

With the attention of the central government and the implementation of measures, the capital has entered a special state.

First, the first batch of 6 designated hospitals were identified, 10 consultation hotlines were opened, and then it was announced that Xiaotangshan Hospital had been decided to use centralized treatment.

Xiaotangshan is also a legend. It used to be a palace in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and became a nursing home after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

4000 workers, 7 days and nights, built a SARS ward in the north of the nursing home, and treated one seventh of the patients in the country. It was later demolished until the reconstruction of the new crown, where it played a role again.

The three members of the Xu family also started to act.

Times Media mainly assists the government in carrying out a series of publicity activities. Celebrities are very effective cards. They talk about scientific prevention and control, and they are always spread more widely than others.

Xiaoxu donated clothes, bedding, masks, etc. to the hospital, and also distributed masks for free at bus stations and subway stations.

Of course Zhang Li donated money, she only had money left.

And when the city of Beijing became more and more quiet, Mr. Xu was very busy. At the same time as the video website was launched, web articles followed.

Speaking of online literature, I didn’t talk about it in the early days. Only after 2000, the four literary forums in Westland announced their withdrawal and established Xkong.

A certain space is a generation of overlord, monopoly level.

However, as the traffic increased, the server was overwhelmed, and the browsing experience was extremely poor.

At that time, there were two directions. One was to invest funds to purchase new servers and continue to develop online; the other was to abandon the Internet and go all out into the publishing market.

Sora chose the latter.

This decision directly led to its withdrawal from the web text market.

After that, many websites emerged, all of which have one characteristic; poor!

Most of them have tried physical publishing, but they can't sell at a price, so what should I do? Start to test the water online charging.

The first company to test the waters was ReadWrite, which was established in 2002 and used SMS to charge fees.

However, due to the lack of accumulation of public works, too many SMS charging problems, and serious exploitation of authors, it has never developed.

At that time, the author's remuneration was calculated on a per-person basis, 0.06 yuan per person.

For example, within a month, if a member reads your book, no matter how many words you read, you can only get 6 cents.

Then at some point in 2003, the VIP system was implemented.

At that time, unlike now, as long as you signed a contract, you could join V. At that time, only a dozen fine novels were prepared, as the pioneers of paid reading.

I won’t talk about some accidents that happened during the period. I can only say that I was lucky and survived at a certain point.

Especially in 2004, a certain point was acquired by Shanda, saying goodbye to that poor word. Relying on Shanda's wealth and operation, a large number of VIP members were added at a certain point, announcing the end of the Warring States era of web articles.

To sum up, several major conditions of the charging model:

The number of clicks must be sufficient, and there must be many public works. These are the foundations.

The author's return must be high, so that there is motivation.

There must be a big funder behind it to resist risks and develop.

It is convenient to recharge.

Tianxia Chinese Website has it all!

…………

In an office smelling of disinfectant, the person in charge of the website and representatives of Changyou gathered together, and Mr. Xu presided over it himself.

Because of works such as The Legend of the Great Wilderness, Legend of the Little Soldier and The Disciple of Heshi, the website traffic has not been low, and the daily hits have reached more than 20 million.

The first batch of more than a dozen VIP novels such as Zhu Xian, I'm a Hooligan and How to Make a Bad Guy will be launched in May, but the first month will be free, and the official fee will be charged in June.

2 cents/thousand words, there are three recharge modes: SMS, online banking and Changyou point card.

ICBC launched online banking in 2000, and point cards for A Chinese Journey to the West and Fantasy Westward Journey have been sold all over the country, using this channel to sell online point cards.

The author's remuneration will be paid in full by the 15th of next month.

...

After Xu Fei listened, he thought for a moment: After a period of implementation, VIP will be divided into primary and high-level, one-time recharge can become high-level, and reading books will be cheaper.

There are more benefits for writers, such as a guaranteed bonus if the monthly remuneration does not reach the amount. Or how many words are updated every day, and a perfect attendance award will be issued.

In addition, set up a monthly ticket mode and create a monthly ticket ranking list. The top few will give prizes and publicity. But readers must spend a certain amount of points in order to get a monthly pass.

The author must be cultivated with a tendency, this is also a position, and the circle is not big or small. A good author can bring great benefits, grades are graded, and there are masters and platinum above the 12345 level...

Hiss!

Everyone is convinced, and the boss is so skilled in web writing!

But someone asked again: Boss, the website will be under a lot of pressure and may lose money.

You are the same as video, you are doing it now and looking to the future. If I am afraid of losing money, I will not engage in these projects.

Xu Fei reassured everyone: Please rest assured that what we do today will show its true value in five or ten years!
