Chapter 470: The Role of HULU Videos and Think Tanks

With the launch of the new issue of Newsweek, the continuing series of Cardhouses continues to be in a gradual and progressive fashion.

For political novels, there are usually some difficulties, such as the ease of falling prey to "zuo or you” position choices, or the habit of indulging in profiling sarcasm about politicians, both of which tend to make the novel's own temperament seem light and shallow.

Andy never considered the position, and of course, the restoration he's doing now doesn't require him to think about it so much, and he's taking it closer to straightening it out. It's not as good as deep dive lines, but it's rare to speak openly about political skills.

The "Cardhouse" is built in a way that mechanics of interdependence between cards and cards, one pulls away and the building leans, so the title already sums up everything the story wants to express, without the need to hide and obscure.

The first part of "The Cardhouse" is still in the series. As the novel becomes famous, the major television stations naturally have very good knowledge. After all, they already have millions of fixed readers, which is definitely one of the most valuable fixed viewing groups since the adaptation of the TV drama.

There is a saying in the TV industry called "viewership is the source of all evil", because no one knows what it will do. Based on the past experience of the production team, it can only accommodate the market accordingly, adding many elements that are not descripble and can be directly 404. Even so, the viewership rate is still unknown. However, it is difficult to imagine how quickly the viewers' preferences will change.

The major television stations had been in touch with the newspaper Newsweek in order to be able to take the film and television adaptation of the novel, but Andy was not at all concerned, as he had long decided to let the show operate on the trajectory of a previous life and still appeared in the form of a cyberplay.

This is also an important part of the layout that he did a long time ago. At the time of the acquisition of Peak Entertainment, Andy had someone rent a studio in Santa Monica, and a video website company called HULU was founded as a simple studio.

Andy once again shamelessly grabbed the lead and grabbed the name of the Hulu video website. You may not know HULU very well. After all, the rabbit country cannot get in. The HULU video site is one of the most popular video sites in the United States. In the future, the website will host authorised genuine film and television productions.

Of course, it's bullshit to rely on Andy's library of new movie companies to support a video website, so it's time to seek the cooperation and support of major media, television, and movie companies.

This is not something that you can stand on your heels by eating on your own. You have to distribute the cake properly. If you want to reap huge benefits, you need to make the cake bigger.

In fact, Andy's HULU Video Website studio, not too many real code engineers, but most of all employees of the external liaison department, started contacting major TV stations and major film companies early on to seek cooperation.

The sudden emergence of the HULU video site also stopped NBC Global, which was prepared to work with FOX to create a video site, as they were persuaded of the slogan proposed by the HULU video site when they learned who owned it.

“Fight against the erosion of online video in the traditional film and television industry, and draw users' attention back from the funny cat to the huge film and television clips that producers spend so much money shooting! ”

Listen, how good it is to talk about these old media. Youtube is the biggest enemy of the old media. The HULU video site is Andy, the owner of the new Hollywood movie company, to fight the killers of these new media on youtube, and the old media are on the same front.

As for why they think that, most importantly, Andy allowed them to buy shares or collaboratively become content providers on the HULU video site.

In Andy's planning, Hulu will work with over 80 content producers including NBC Worldwide, FOX Sony, MGM, Warner Brothers, Lion Gate Film Industry and NBA, while sites as large as US Online, Yahoo, MSN and MySpace will all be partners in its channels. This means that anyone can see new and old TV dramas and movies such as The Simpson Family, 24 Hours, free of charge, of high quality and full length on Hulu and its partner websites.

But the key is that in addition to burning money, a new video site needs to be exposed. After all, it is easier for youtube users to create content to create popular spots, and people can easily accept blurry, but interesting, short videos when the bandwidth of the user is still in its infancy.

Of course, the youtube site has never been able to build a successful profitability model, and its survival depends entirely on Google's acquisition, throwing money to feed its destiny of becoming a strategic chess piece. Andy is rather speechless, and is simply a victim of Google Data as king.

Andy's Calabash video site, from the very beginning of the studio, decided that every 22 minutes of video would require a 2-minute advertising pattern to survive. Of course, users can choose to play ads they like and choose to watch ad-free content for a fee.

Andy, as a senior internet user, enjoyed many years of free resources in the rabbit country. For later advertising problems and fee-based viewing, the verbal death came alive, didn't he finally get used to it? So, the acceptance threshold for internet users is really not as high as they screamed, and Andy is not worried about the profitability prospects of the site, let alone the initial jump of the internet folks.

The key or the content is king. "The Cardhouse" is his killer who increased the exposure of the HULU video website. When the first part of the novel is published, he lets Jon Micham lead several companies to pull investment and put the whole season directly online for a fee to watch.

Well, this undoubtedly challenged the viewing habits of the old TV audience, but it was the most appropriate behavior for online viewers to watch. Anyway, Andy's previous life has been a tremendously disgusting chase, Nima, watching one episode a week can die a sudden death, believing that at a time when the number and quality of films are indefinitely refreshed, most people have also lost the patience to wait a week to chase a lengthy episode in front of the TV.

Especially as smartphone changes are about to begin, the next mobile client will grow in explosion, information bombing will be simpler and more powerful, and the emotional shortcuts and forgetfulness of urban people will be meaningless even if every episode begins with a decent episode review.

Anyway, one episode a week, Andy feels incredibly stubborn, so in a sense, he's going to use the Cardhouse online drama to subvert this tradition and open new avenues for the rapid rise of the HULU video site. Of course, this is undoubtedly a huge shock for television stations, which have long dominated the production and distribution of comedy, after all, they need to concentrate their audience in front of the television set for a certain period of time and charge heavenly advertising fees.

This is not the issue he needs to consider, then pull several major media groups into the HULU video site camp, they will make money anyway, believe that even if they have an opinion, they will endure it.

Andy is going to use cake splitting to pull up a huge group of forces to seize the future of online channels and traffic. Benefit-sharing has never been a problem. Capital society, eating a single diet will become a target, and all he wants is more influence and power from intangible and tangible resources.

Money, Andy likes, and there are many ways to get it, and now his eyes are more on resource grabbing, especially in the upcoming period of the storm, when all kinds of high-quality resources that have been affected by the economic crisis turn into cabbage prices, or even unwanted garbage.

With huge amounts of cash in his hand, he had tied his napkin, held his knife and fork and sat at the table, ready to start a feast.

Andy frowned and looked at a sketch of a steel suit he had drawn himself with a pencil, and he kept mumbling in his mouth: "Marvel, Marvel, where do I start making you my industry? ”

Picked up the phone and called out.

“Hey, Al, what's Marvel doing lately? ”

“Oh, I just wanted to call the boss. I didn't expect you to call first. Marvel Film sent a message. Well, maybe it's good news for us. In order to get rid of the excessive interference from our parent company, Marvel Entertainment Group, Kevin Page of Marvel Film, with the support of Stanley and Marvel Comics Editor-in-Chief, established a different production model from the mainstream in Hollywood.

Committee of Six Producers. The Six-Member Producers Committee is composed of senior editors and cartoon authors who are highly knowledgeable in the cartoon industry and know the psychology of cartoon readers, as well as company executives who are proficient in resource integration and management.

This has angered Ike, CEO of Marvel Entertainment Group, and has become intolerable for the growing autonomy of the Marvel Film Industry, but thanks to the support of Stanley and the cartoon editor, Ike is now powerless.

Marvel's internal contradictions have become clearer and more public, and Kevin Page is capable, but as a professional manager he has already broken the ethics threshold.

The think tank agrees that if we complete the acquisition of Marvel, the first thing is to fire Kevin Page, no matter how capable he is! ”

Andy has a satisfied smile in the corner of his mouth, which is the value of his think tank. He has a brilliant vision of the future and a big view of the strategic layout, but he is not a god and is able to think about everything comprehensively, especially the use and discernment of talent.

If it had been his original idea, Kevin Page, who had been a genius in his previous life, would certainly have continued to be entrusted with the task, but what the think tank had in mind was the professional ethic of serving the boss as a professional manager on the board, a subordinate of the following grams, even a genius, could never be used, and finally the boss was reversed.
