Before The College Entrance Examination, My Life Was Gamified

Chapter 153 Crazy Valuation

what is the internet

To put it bluntly, this is a new social model that can communicate with others without face-to-face.

On the Internet, everyone can hide their appearance, identity, and status, and "survive" with another identity

The barrage completely caters to everyone's social mentality.

A person watching a video dully, or watching a video for a while, and then reading a comment for a while, this kind of social interaction is nothing compared to the barrage.

The mood of this group of investors can only be described as shock.

They can almost imagine that after the new version of YouTube is launched, it will be a kind of dimensionality reduction blow to the newly emerging online video.

Those small video companies that originally lived in the shadow of YouTube will definitely fall into a low ebb in a short period of time.

After the group of investors calmed down, they began to analyze the various functions launched by Li Bai.

The first is to like and share the video.

Obviously to promote the video and increase the influence of YouTube.

The second is the reward function, which is obviously another profit point.

And it can also bring good economic benefits to the video provider, which will greatly stimulate the creative enthusiasm of video creators.

Where can I find such a good thing that I can express myself and make money at the same time?

Even based on YouTube’s rewards and Internet celebrity promotion business, a large number of companies that rely on YouTube to survive will be born.

It is foreseeable that online celebrity packaging companies and professional small video production companies will be born like mushrooms after the spring rain because of the new features of YouTube.

It can be said that YouTube's new features will successfully incubate a small economic ecosystem.

This kind of influence will be beyond the reach of small video playback platforms.

YouTube's long-term hegemony is already foreseeable.

Well, since YouTube is so good and has such great potential, can't Li Bai, a young genius, see it?

They would not believe that such a genius would be short-sighted.

Then there is only one possibility, the development potential of YouTube is far greater than what is shown now.

It was so huge that Li Bai could not afford it alone.

He needs someone who takes the risk for himself.

But that doesn't lower YouTube's valuation.

Because apart from them, there are too many influential and wealthy companies and families in the world.

But here comes the question, how should YouTube be valued?

Bill Gates is also thinking about this issue. To be honest, his original valuation was 35 billion US dollars.

But now, just relying on the barrage function alone, the current YouTube may have exceeded 35 billion US dollars.

He pondered for a while: "Dear Li, what do you think of the valuation of 43 billion US dollars."?"

Other investment banks began to calculate this price in their hearts. To be honest, it is very fair. This is a price that is neither high nor low and acceptable to both parties.

I saw Li Bai waving his hand: "After I finish talking about the future development of other businesses, I will quote."

Bill Gates nodded, but he also understood that Li Bai was not satisfied with this offer.

So what is Li Bai's other confidence?

Li Bai didn't hold back, and said directly: "This is the development direction of the self-media model. Next, we should talk about the promotion of film and television dramas."

"It is true that if you play old movies under the banner of nostalgia, there will naturally be audiences who will buy it, but after all, there is no novelty, so YouTube will get involved in the film and television industry, shoot its own self-produced dramas, and even its own online variety shows. I want to create a Internet TV."

Speaking of this, everyone else looked at Orfila, they all knew that this woman had just bought MGM not long ago.

Orfila smiled slightly: "Although YouTube and I have reached a cooperation intention, the cooperation model is still under discussion."

Others instantly understood that Li Bai wanted to discuss the details with MGM based on the final valuation.

But can the road of self-made film and television dramas work?

After all, there are TV stations and movie theaters, will the audience buy it?

Naturally, Li Bai also knew this was a problem, and he quickly said: "If new and more convenient online media appear in the future, then the presence of TV stations will be greatly reduced.

It is still a subtle reminder to everyone.

Naturally, this group of people can also think of what Li Bai is talking about.

mobile phone.

If mobile phones can really watch videos, it means that this will be a brand new way of entertainment, and in terms of convenience, it will surpass TV and movie theaters.

That means Li Bai is going against the entire TV industry.

But this must be based on the premise that mobile phones can take on the new network medium.

If mobile phones can really do this, then there will definitely be a market for Internet TV stations.

Li Bai went on to say: "I have already sent people to discuss the live broadcast rights with the four major sports organizers in Millikin, and the major football leagues in Europe and Africa have also sent people to discuss the live broadcast matters. "

He paused: ". "That's YouTube's determination. n

determination?

What determination?

Can a mobile phone really do this?

They stared at Li Bai desperately, hoping to find clues from each other's faces.

Unfortunately, aside from confidence, "they don't see any emotion.

So, is it true that mobile phones are the new Internet medium?

Otherwise, Li Bai would never dare to bet such a big amount.

But as investors, they cannot easily draw this conclusion.

If everything Li Bai said is true, then YouTube's current value will not be less than 50 billion US dollars.

But obviously, they couldn't get the exact news from Li Bai.

So what follows is a gamble.

Do you dare to bet, or whether YouTube and Li Bai are worth their heavy bets.

The meeting room fell silent, Li Bai knew that these people were making their last struggle.

Then just wait, until the right time, Orfila's support can come in handy.

Li Bai (better) calmly picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip.

In addition to thinking about YouTube's development strategy, Bill Gates is thinking more about Li Bai.

He has the most contact with Li Bai, and he knows that the real master behind Fun Tour Group is this young man.

Judging from the cooperation projects between the two parties, the future of TT antivirus and W-TT is limitless.

Not only the Internet industry, but even the scripts written by Li Bai have all been a big success.

It seems that this teenager, in any industry, has never failed.

As an investor, investing in a successful person is often more rewarding than investing in a successful product.

With this in mind, Bill Gates made up his mind.

"At a valuation of US$58 billion, we at Microsoft are willing to raise US$5.8 billion for a 10% stake.

hiss

The richest man, is this crazy?

Compared with the original 30 billion US dollars, this valuation has almost doubled!.
