Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Chapter 114 Blowing the East

"Plan C."

Looking at the message sent by Xiao Boshi, Meng Qian replied, "Thank you for your hard work."

Going to Nikon this time was itself a test, and both of them had predicted the possible reaction of the other party. Although the disdain at the scene was a little more direct than Xiao Boshi imagined, the disdain itself was expected by the two of them.

After all, in those years when China was backward, it was often ridiculed outside.

For the next three days, Xiao Boshi stayed in Neon Nation to discuss the details of the contract with NTT DOCOMO, and by the way began to plan the launch of Fengxin in Neon Nation.

Three days later, he set off for Korea.

Unsurprisingly, Hangame's lion opened his mouth wide, so Xiao Boshi directly gave up his first wish and found another target, Daum.

Daum is one of the three major local portals in Korea, and his biggest competitor at the moment is Naver, which merged with Hangame.

In later generations, Naver slapped Daum, and Daum's development in Korea was somewhat similar to China's Sohu.

But being hanged and beaten is a matter of later generations. Daum in 2001 was very happy with Naver. Since this is the case, it naturally became the best target in Xiao Boshi's eyes.

Set up a common goal, the enemy of the enemy is not the friend.

Fengxin needs a local shell, and Daum needs a big entertainment company. Coupled with Xiao Bozhi's full preparations before the negotiation, the two hit it off.

After finishing Daum, Boshi Xiao went straight to Singapore.

This place, temporarily neglected by the West, has become the largest user base of ICQ, and Korea Naver has begun to expand in Southeast Asia. It seems that some companies have gradually noticed the market potential of Southeast Asia.

It also includes Dafeng Kechuang.

The layout in Singapore is too easy, the policy is open, the environment is open, and the capital is open. Just figure out how to overturn ICQ.

During the time when Xiao Boshi was attacking the city, Meng Qian, who was sitting in the base camp, was busy with another matter, which was the Phantom Spirit Alliance.

The purpose of launching Fengxin is to grab traffic, grab traffic, and make money on the one hand, but also let Fengxin play a different role, that is, in Neon, Korea, and the United States, they began to rely on their own cultural characteristics and The initial stage of cultural output with entertainment advantages allows Huaxia Wangwen to also participate in the competition for cultural output.

In the next 10 years, with the explosion of the Internet, it will enter the era of entertainment explosion. The Chinese culture in the past did not do anything in this entertainment explosion. In this life, it can no longer be like this.

On July 19th, the layout of the Phantom Alliance website was finally finalized after several revisions. The simple and clean layout, and the user-friendly backend of the writers were far beyond the reach of the novel websites of the same period.

"Have you bought all the copyrights?" Meng Qian asked Ruan Yongkang after reading the website.

"90% of the copyrights have been bought."

The 1990s was actually an explosive period for Chinese literature, but most of the works in this era were published literature.

But in Meng Qian’s view, there is no need to draw a so-called boundary between online literature and traditional literature. The Internet is just a tool, and the definition of Internet literature should only be literature posted on the Internet.

For a long time, the debate between traditional literature and online literature has never stopped, and even debated on major TV programs, which is inexplicable.

In this life, Meng Qian will start with him and not separate literature. Literature is so vulgar and elegant that it can be recognized by readers as a good work.

Aren't some plots in "Notre Dame de Paris" vulgar?

There is elegance in elegance, and beauty in vulgarity. Demarcation of literature is a blasphemy to literature.

Because behind literature is life, and the characteristics of life are all kinds of forms

Therefore, when the website library was not yet sufficient, Meng Qian first chose to purchase the copyrights of some well-known books and put them on the Internet, including physical publishing books, and also buying authorizations from other websites.

And these books naturally cover classic works such as "The Legend of Wukong" and "The First Close Contact".

In addition, what Meng Qian was doing was digging out authors. Before the website was ready, Meng Qian mainly relied on offline digging, including the authors of "Sou Shen Ji", which was originally serialized in July 2001. group of writers.

After the website was completed on July 19, Meng Qian immediately added the Phantom Alliance to Fengxin, and then he launched an event: Huaxia Network Literature Contest.

Regardless of the industry, don't talk about any mess, for most people, money is the biggest motivation.

Meng Qian invested as much as 10 million yuan in the prize pool of Huaxia Internet Literature, which was 10 million yuan in 2001. Once the event came out, the entire market was shaken.

Moreover, Meng Qian very deliberately downplayed the boundary between traditional literature and Internet literature, that is, he defined Internet literature as literature published on the Internet, but with different themes.

At the same time, the rewards for this competition are not only the 10 million prize pool itself, Meng Qian also gave two other rewards, one is the overseas serialization rights, works with good results can be simultaneously serialized overseas.

The other one is that the top ten in this competition will have the opportunity to participate in the creation of ancient myths in the background of "The Legend of the Gods" and receive high creation rewards from Dafeng Science and Technology.

With the help of the rapid spread of rumors, Meng Qian made the headlines of all major online forums and media in just a few days.

You have never seen someone spend so much money on literature.

After all, literature has not yet formed a decent industry chain these days, not to mention that the literature industry chain has not been popular enough.

Some people say that literature cannot develop because the industry is too difficult. Physical publishing basically loses money, and writing books online. At a certain point in 2019, official data shows that more than 90% of writers have a monthly income of less than 2,000.

Literary creation, like the entertainment industry, belongs to an over-pyramidized industry. However, the bottom of the entertainment industry can generally get enough food and clothing, and the bottom of the literary circle will die if they mix it.

But Meng Qian thinks this is the characteristic of the industry, and there is nothing to complain about. Anyone who enters the industry should recognize this situation, and don't do this if they don't accept it.

Therefore, Meng Qian has never thought about making any changes in the characteristics of the industry. What he is doing now is just to revitalize this market in advance, because from the perspective of future development, Chinese people are full of talents in literary creation.

In just five days, the Phantom Alliance registered 5 million writer IDs, although there must be a lot of fun.

At the same time, the online popularity has also promoted the offline development, and more writers are willing to join the Phantom Alliance. A group of well-known writers of later generations, including God of Wealth Ning, joined the Phantom Spirit Alliance one after another.

Meng Qian quickly catalyzed the development of online literature with 10 million yuan.

After having the work, the next step is the translation work. On the issue of translation, Meng Qian's choice is to find existing Chinese-related translators in various countries to undertake the translation work, use the existing translation agency or build a translation agency, and give them enough profit points.

The advantage of doing this is that when Huaxia Literature develops abroad in the future, they will make money, so they will naturally find ways to expand their translation team. If they don't do it, someone else will do it. Will not dislike.

The expansion speed of the literature library is much higher than that of movies, TV and animation. In order to meet the daily translation work, they need more people who understand Chinese to join. At that time, it may be able to promote more people to learn Chinese, which is also considered An added bonus.

On August 1, 2001, Xiao Boshi got on the plane back to China.

On this day, Meng Qian and Xiao Boshi had almost finished their preliminary work.

Huaxia, Neon, Korea and Singapore have some differences in their university holiday time, and one of the time points that can relatively catch up with everyone's holiday is: early August.

So Meng Qian decided to blow the east wind on this day

Thanks for the reward of Hanfeng!
