Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Although Pei Qian basically does not watch ioi games and is not very interested in ioi, since it is an opportunity to spend money, he can't let it go!

Judging from the current situation, it seems that ICL’s broadcasting rights have not yet been negotiated.

Why didn't we negotiate?

It must be expensive.

Zhitou and Longyu Group obviously cannot accept that ICL’s broadcast rights are sold too low. On the one hand, it is a face problem, and on the other hand, because they have very high expectations for the future of the ICL League.

But the live broadcast platforms are not stupid. I feel that the popularity of the ICL league so far is all false and burned out. It is very likely that you will lose money if you spend a lot of money on the broadcast rights.

Of course, the video of "Breaking the Cocoon before the Butterfly" at such a critical moment has also greatly increased the bargaining chips for these live broadcast platforms.

However, the problems that plague other live broadcast platforms do not exist for Pei Qian.

Is the popularity of ICL fake?Surely you will lose money if you spend a lot of money on broadcasting rights?

Can't ask for it!

Pei Qian now most needs this kind of project that is too hot and will inevitably lose!

Moreover, ioi is a direct competitor of GOG. Buying ICL's broadcasting rights at a big price is equivalent to an enemy, and it also coincides with Pei Qian's expectation of supporting ioi and suppressing GOG.

Tuwei Live is positioned as a knowledge-based live broadcast platform. At present, the content above is mainly live broadcasts by young scholars and lecturers, which is not compatible with ICL broadcasts.

In short, buying the broadcast rights of ICL can firstly burn money, secondly become an enemy, and thirdly, it can have a certain negative impact on the rabbit tail live broadcast. It is perfect!

Even more boldly, you can buy independent broadcasting rights without buying broadcasting rights.

Exclusive live broadcast!

In this way, more money will definitely be spent.

The more Pei Qian thought about it, the more he felt it was appropriate, and immediately decided to go live on Tuwei, and when he saw Lao Ma and Chen Yufeng, he finalized the matter.

...

More than half an hour later, Pei Qian came to the office area of ​​Tuwei Live Broadcast.

After this period of development, the number of employees of Tuwei Live has increased significantly, and everyone is busy nervously.

After all, Rabbit Tail Live has just been officially launched and it is still in a period of vigorous development. There are a lot of new features to be developed and a lot of daily affairs to be handled.

Many people are busy with their work staring at the screen, without even noticing Mr. Pei quietly walking by him.

Seeing the working atmosphere of Tuwei live broadcast, Pei Qian felt very worried, but he was helpless.

Although the Tuwei live broadcast has still burned money and made no profit so far, seeing these employees so full of energy, Pei Qian feels that there are always hidden dangers.

But he didn't have any good solutions. This was a chronic illness of the entire Tenda Group, and it could not be cured overnight.

I can only hope that the leader, Ma, can play a role!

Pei Qian found Ma Yang and Chen Yufeng and called them to the conference room.

"Brother Qian, do you have any instructions?" Ma Yang is still full of energy as usual.

Pei Qian nodded: "Well, I plan to buy the exclusive broadcast rights of the ICL League for Tuwei Live to inform you."

Ma Yang's long face showed a dazed expression: "What is ICL?"

Chen Yufeng was shocked and pale: "President Pei, I can't use it!"

"I'm also paying attention to ICL broadcasting rights recently. At present, several major live broadcasting platforms such as Langya Live and ZZ Live are talking to Zhao Xuming. It is said that Zhao Xuming's offer is 11 million, which is the current reserve price. It's 9 million."

"This price is obviously inflated, and all major live broadcast platforms don't recognize it. They hope to win the broadcast rights of ICL at around 7 million yuan, so the two sides are currently in a stalemate."

"If you want to buy the exclusive broadcasting rights, it will be even more expensive! If you sell the broadcasting rights, Zhao Xuming can sell to at least three or four live broadcast platforms, and the expected price is about 30 to 40 million yuan. If we want to broadcast alone, it must be more than this price. It must be higher!"

"What's more, we are competitors with Zhitou. How could Zhao Xuming sell the broadcasting rights to us..."

The more Chen Yufeng analyzed, the more he found this outrageous.

Mr. Pei has the GPL broadcasting rights in his own hands, and he can give it as he pleases. As a result, he didn't plan to let Rabbit Tail broadcast the GPL live.

There are free, better, and home leagues that are not broadcast, so you have to spend a lot of money to buy rival leagues?

Which one is this singing?

Can't understand at all.

Pei Qian had already anticipated Chen Yufeng's reaction, and couldn't help but smiled slightly: "It's okay, I'll call Eric and I will definitely get it."

It's not that I have any friendship with Eric, but I am more confident about my money abilities.

Eric doesn't sell it?Easy to handle, just add money.

In the market, there are no eternal friends or enemies, only eternal interests.

Tengda Group is a competitor of the head company, and has a bloody feud... you have to add money!

Pei Qian believes that as long as the price and related supporting propaganda provided by him are sincere enough, Eric will definitely be moved.

Seeing Mr. Pei's confident expression, Chen Yufeng had nothing to say.

Since Mr. Pei is so determined, he must have arranged a successor.

So what can I say?Just watch President Pei's operation.

What's more, Chen Yufeng feels that it is absolutely impossible for Zhitou Company and Longyu Group to sell the exclusive broadcast rights of ICL to Tenda. The call to Mr. Pei was mostly closed doors.

Pei Qian didn't have any ink, he had Eric's contact information on his mobile phone, and he directly broadcasted a video call.

It took a long time for Eric to pick it up.

Obviously, Eric didn't have any expectation about President Pei's initiative to contact him. He didn't know how to react for a while, and he hesitated for a while before picking up.

A picture of Eric appeared on the phone screen, which seemed to be in his own office.

Eric's expression is wonderful, obviously he is searching for a suitable opening sentence, but he also feels that there is something wrong with how to say hello.

Pei Qian didn't talk too much nonsense with him, and said straightforwardly: "Mr. Ai, it has been a long time since I saw you. I am looking for you today to talk to you about ICL broadcasting rights."

Eric froze for a moment, with a shocked expression on his face.

Are you embarrassed to talk to me about ICL broadcasting rights?

It is because of the promotional video you posted that not only caused me to spend 20 to 30 million more, but the price of the broadcasting rights negotiated with other live broadcasting platforms has also been greatly reduced. Until now, no agreement has been reached!

Eric felt like he had been beaten up, and then the other party ran to the hospital to greet him fakely.

He was so angry and inexplicable, he didn't know how to react.

Pei Qian continued: "I heard that you didn't talk to the live broadcast platforms? It should be troublesome? To be honest, Tutail Live wants to buy the exclusive broadcast rights of ICL, so you can make a price."

Eric was a little confused.

Always Pei wants to buy the broadcasting rights of ICL?Oh no, solo broadcasting rights?

The difference between this word, the price is several times worse!

And, which one is President Pei singing this?Seeing his self-confidence, why do you think I will sell it to him?

Eric had no idea what Mr. Pei was thinking.

But since Mr. Pei has asked, he can quote a higher price to scare him off.

Eric considered it seriously.

After several days of wrangling, Eric also knew in his heart that it is basically impossible to sell the exclusive broadcasting rights at a price of 11 million yuan. 9 million is a relatively ideal price, but it is also very difficult. In the end, it can sell to 800. 10,000 or so is good.

According to the current situation, there are only three or four platforms that are really interested in ICL broadcasting rights. The final selling price is as low as 24 million and as high as 32 million.

Although the other platforms are interested on the surface, they are actually not determined at all. They may give up if the price is a little bit higher, and they can't count on it.

So for the sole broadcast rights, it is already a relatively high price to set it at around 35 million. President Pei is careful and should not agree.

Eric replied: "Mr Pei wants to buy the exclusive broadcast rights? It's easy to say, a price of 35 million, if Mr. Pei accepts this price..."

Pei Qian immediately made a decision: "35 million? No problem."

In fact, Pei Qian's expectation was 40 million. He didn't expect that the price of Eric's report was lower than what he had expected, and he felt like he was making a profit instantly.

Eric was choked on the second half of the sentence, looking at the phone screen, fell into a state of silence.

Mr. Pei agreed so simply???

Judging from the wrangling between Eric and Zhao Xuming with various live broadcast platforms in the past few days, the price of a single broadcast of 35 million is definitely not low.

In the end, President Pei agreed without even thinking about it?

After eliminating the possibility that Pei always deliberately tried to make himself happy, Eric couldn't think of why.

Could it be that...what's the conspiracy behind this?

Or is there some unique value in the ICL League that I did not discover, nor did other live broadcast platforms, but Mr. Pei discovered?

Mr. Pei promised so simply that Eric couldn't answer the conversation.

Can't just make a decision to sign the contract?

Eric absolutely doesn't want to sell the exclusive broadcasting rights of ICL to President Pei. He is very worried about President Pei's harassment, so he will be blamed.

But it was himself who made the price, and Mr. Pei had already agreed. At this time, it seemed inappropriate to change his words and say not to sell.

Eric quickly added a few: "35 million is only the most basic, and we still have many additional conditions. For example, the stability of the live broadcast must be ensured, and there must be no interruption or stalling; all the promotional resources of the platform must be used. Promote ICL; unilateral termination cannot set excessively high liquidated damages."

Eric is not stupid. What if Mr. Pei buys the exclusive broadcasting rights of the ICL League and deliberately engages in troubles and gets stuck in the live broadcast of Rabbit Tail, which seriously affects the watching experience?

President Pei used the rabbit tail live broadcast to exchange the limit with the ICL League, and it must be President Pei.

Therefore, Eric put forward some more stringent conditions, especially the last one, to agree on the amount of liquidated damages, so that in the future, even if there is a problem, the loss will be controlled within an acceptable range.

Pei Qian nodded again: "No problem, we accept these conditions."

Eric was obviously worried.

If Pei Qian engages in small moves and turns the ICL League into pornography, wouldn't GOG be even more dominant?Didn't Tenda make more money?

Of course, it is necessary to broadcast ICL well, support the national service ioi, and let Eric see hope, so that he can continue to burn money with himself!

Therefore, Pei Qian accepted all these conditions.

Eric froze.

On the phone screen, Eric was motionless, without blinking his eyelids.

Pei Qian thought it was his phone card, and asked, "Mr. Ai? Can you hear me?"

It took a long time for Eric to react: "I can hear you."

He never expected that the price he wanted, President Pei agreed without saying a word; President Pei also accepted all the conditions he asked for!

If the other party is not Tenda, but another company, Eric must have happily signed the contract with the other party.

But only for Tenda and President Pei, Eric needs a reason to convince himself.

Eric thought about it for a long time and said, "Mr. Pei, can you tell me why I want to buy ICL's exclusive broadcasting rights? If you can give a convincing reason and the contract is sufficiently detailed, then I can consider ."

Pei Qian immediately replied with the excuse he had already thought of: "Of course it is because I want to promote the rabbit tail live broadcast."

"Live broadcasting is obviously one of the future trends. Compared with other live broadcast platforms, Tuwei Live does not have much exclusive content. Buying ICL's exclusive broadcasting rights is the first step for Tuwei Live to challenge those established live broadcast platforms. ."

These remarks were pure nonsense, but they sounded extremely reasonable to Eric.

Eric asked: "Then why don't you broadcast the GPL on Tutail Live?"

"Uh..." Pei Qian snapped.

Eric's point is, if you want to broadcast the big rabbit tail, why don't you put the good things in your hands on it?But you want to buy it from me?

The motive is suspicious!

However, Pei Qian quickly reacted: "The Rabbit Tail live broadcast has just launched, and the structure is not particularly stable. The GPL live broadcast has been scheduled and will be launched soon."

In order to eliminate Eric’s doubts and successfully buy the exclusive broadcasting rights of the ICL League, the GPL broadcast can only be arranged on the rabbit tail live broadcast.

Eric nodded slightly, and the doubtful expression in his eyes finally faded.

Since Mr. Pei also broadcasts the GPL League on Rabbit Tail, the problem shouldn't be big.

At that time, if the bandwidth of the rabbit tail live broadcast is not enough, there will be a stall situation, and the GPL live broadcast will also be affected.

What's more, the two parties can make a series of detailed agreements when signing the contract. Once something goes wrong, Eric can immediately terminate the cooperation.

If the party at fault is on Mr. Pei’s side, Eric can refund part of the contract and terminate the contract naturally; if the party at fault is on his side, the penalty will be set lower and the loss can also be stopped in time.

Eric thought about it again, and realized that he was moved.

I have to say that the conditions given by President Pei are far more generous than those of other live broadcast platforms.

In the past few days, Eric and Zhao Xuming have been arguing and bargaining with these live broadcast platforms, and they are already very upset.

If you give up President Pei’s cooperation opportunity, you still don’t know how long you have to fight with those live broadcast platforms, and the final price is probably better than selling to President Pei.

Although President Pei's motive for buying the ICL exclusive broadcast rights is somewhat far-fetched, it makes sense.Because even if Mr. Pei doesn't buy it, ICL will always find a platform to broadcast, and there will still be some enthusiasm; Mr. Pei bought the exclusive broadcasting rights, but it can create enthusiasm for the rabbit tail live broadcast, which is a win-win.

The logic is very smooth, and the motivation is very reasonable.

Thinking of this, Eric nodded: "Let’s do it, President Pei, I will talk to President Zhao and the Legal Department to give a detailed contract, and then we will discuss the details of the cooperation. If Pei is always sincere If we want to cooperate, then there is no need for us to give up opportunities for win-win because of our position."

Pei Qian smiled slightly: "Okay, then I will wait for good news."

After hanging up the video call, Pei Qian looked at Chen Yufeng: "It's done, let the Legal Department study the contract."

Chen Yufeng was a little dumbfounded.

Is this done?

With a few words, President Pei made his old enemy Eric agree to sell us the exclusive broadcasting rights of ICL?

Although the price seems a bit high and it is not very cost-effective to buy, since Pei always thinks it is worth it, it must be worth it.

Chen Yufeng is not good to say more, and immediately nodded: "Okay, President Pei, I will arrange it now!"
