Chapter 1454 Shuffle
Among the North American executives of Renren Film and Television, Netflix's background accounts for a considerable number. These executives from Netflix are important supporters of Robert Kingsor. Compared with Hollywood executives, Robert Kingsor actually believes in more important executives from Netflix.
After all, Netflix was far away by Renren Film and Television, and people walked to the high places and water flowed to the low places. With Robert Kingsor now having a huge power in Hollywood, more and more former Netflix executives began to defect to them.
This caused a considerable number of executives who left Netflix to join Renren Film and Television. This was also the reason why Reed Hastings was dissatisfied with Robert. He left and even hooked up with a group of people.
Moreover, Reed Hastings also heard that after Robert Kingsso came back from Yanjing this time, there were rumors of equity rewards and listings from Renren Film and Television. Others were concerned about Renren Film and Television's mass production of billionaires if it went public.
But what Reed Hastings is worried about is that this time how many Netflix executives have joined Renren Film and Television, making Netflix, which is already in turmoil, even worse...
"Do you think Renren Film and Television and Robert Kingsor are really that kind?" Reed Hastings asked Brad.
Brad opened his mouth and swallowed back the words that were almost at his mouth. In fact, Brad really wanted to say "yes".
After all, those who defected to Robert Kingsso are living a pretty good life now. If they weren't really embarrassed and went to be Robert Kingsso's younger brother, maybe Brad would have to change his family.
After coughing, Brad said, "But this is an opportunity. Reed. If Netflix wants to develop, it must purchase a large amount of film and television copyrights. With Netflix's current situation, it is impossible to grab too many copyrights. If Renren Film and Television is willing to support Netflix, we will be able to obtain a large amount of film and television copyrights!"
Online video websites compete for film and television copyrights. Whoever can watch TV and movies on the platform will flock to which video platform. Netflix wants to compete with Renren Film and Television, Hulu Video, Yahoo Video, etc., but he has no strength at all.
Moreover, with the fierce competition in the video website industry, the price of film and television copyrights has also risen all the time. With Netflix's current situation, at least it will not be able to compete with other video websites in a short period of time!
Reed Hastings still felt a little strange when he looked at the investment agreement in his hand, but he couldn't figure out the other key points. Renren Film and Television suddenly kindly gave Netflix money and film and television copyrights. He didn't believe it if he had no idea.
Once he accepted this investment, he would get the copyright of video from Renren Film and Television, and it would be equivalent to entering Renren Film and Television's copyright distribution system. Reed Hastings had some expectations, but Reed Hastings had a premonition that Renren Film and Television wanted more than this, but Reed Hastings couldn't imagine more.
After hesitating for a moment, Reed Hastings said to Brad, "You go and see Robert Kingsso once and say hello to me. Netflix is willing to cooperate with Renren Film and Television, but Netflix doesn't want to sell its shares to Renren Film and Television!"
Hearing this, Brad's face was full of entanglement. Reed Hastings ate the sugar coat and sent the shells back.
"This..." Brad felt that this job was really not done by anyone, but he could only agree. Netflix still didn't want to offend Renren Film and Television at the moment. Even Reed Hastings had to show his goodwill to Robert Kingsor, otherwise Renren Film and Television would really compete head-on with Netflix, and Netflix would not be able to stand it.
The sudden movement of Renren Film and Television has caused turmoil in the entire video website industry. Regarding Renren Film and Television's large-scale investment and the film and television copyright alliance, some say Renren Film and Television has ulterior motives and uneasy kindness.
Looking at the entire Chuke Technology in recent years, I have never suffered any losses. This time I suddenly feel kind, and I must have another idea. However, some video websites think this is an opportunity. If I can hold on to Renren Film and Television's thighs and get a huge film and television copyright library from Renren Film and Television, I will be able to stand out from a group of competitors.
After entering the North American headquarters of Renren Film and Television, looking at the office building that is much larger than the entire Netflix scale, Brad felt that Robert Kingsso was really different now. He also heard that Renren Film and Television is currently building a huge new studio in Hollywood, and will become one of Renren Film and Television's main shooting studios in the future. The venue fee and equipment fee are huge.
After the title was published, Brad was taken into Robert Kingsso's office without any obstruction.
After entering Robert Kingsso's office, the first thing I saw was a wine cabinet that occupied a wall, and there were various entertainment facilities such as fat trays in the office. No matter how you look at it, it smells a bit unemployed.
Robert Kingsso, who had just signed a document, raised his head and saw Brad coming in. He immediately stood up and seemed very enthusiastic. "Brad, I'm very happy that you can come. When I met last time, I remember it was two years ago!"
Facing Brad, Robert Kingsso could not see any of the past. Instead, Brad took the wine glass handed over by Robert with a little restrained attitude, and Brad said, "Thank you!"
Seeing every move in front of him, he was extremely imposing, and seemed to be more imposing than Reed Hastings. Brad couldn't help feeling it, and only sighed that fate was arousing that people were so powerful.
"Actually, I wanted to come here a long time ago, and Reed was the same, but he had no time. Before this time, Reed specifically told me that hello to President Robert!" Brad said to Robert Kingsso.
Robert Kingsor laughed a few times when he heard this, followed Brad to mention his past events, and even some embarrassing events at Netflix. He was scolded by Reed Hastings at the conference, and he didn't seem to mind the past events at all.
This made Brad, who was observing Robert Kingsso's expression, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. What he feared the most was that Robert Kingsso was catching the past.
After reminiscing with Brad for a moment, Robert Kingsso actually had a much deeper understanding of Netflix than Brad imagined. After all, so many Netflix supervisors have defected to Robert Kingsso.
Even now, there are still many Netflix executives who informed Robert that Robert knew exactly what Reed Hastings was about him. To be honest, Netflix was not much better than a broken house that leaked everywhere.
"Actually, I wanted to stay with Netflix forever, but it was just a matter of thought. As a result, when it came to Renren Film and Television, if I had a choice, I would still choose to live in Netflix without having to be as tedious as I am now!" Robert Kingsor looked at Brad and said in a very troubled manner.
This sudden appearance of Bi was so hard that Brad couldn't hold back, so he could only laugh dryly. Robert's words meant that when all this in Renren Film and Television was not what he wanted. When he felt the most happy, he was still the day when Netflix was the supervisor and was scolded by Reed Hastings every day!
This is like what Boss Ma said. What he regrets the most is that he established Alibaba. His life at Hangzhou Normal University, his monthly salary is more than 100 yuan, which is his happiest...
If it weren't for the huge difference in identity, Brad really wanted to punch Robert in the face. If he hadn't left Netflix, had he had good luck entering Renren Film and Television, and defected to Chuke's technology, then Robert Kingsso wouldn't know which place he could be like today?
Brad really wanted to tell Robert that if he really wanted to come back, he could quit his position as president of Renren Film and Television. Netflix welcomed him back at any time, and he wouldn't have to be as painful as he is now...
"Reid asked you to come here today, is there something?" Robert Kingsso, who was in a good mood, asked Brad.
Brad sat upright and looked at Robert and said carefully, "Reed, I am very interested in the cooperation proposed by Renren Film and Television, but Robert, you also know that Netflix's board of directors is still quite worried about Renren Film and Television's investment and stake. It is not that easy to get the board of directors to pass!"
Hearing this, Robert Kingsso looked at Brad, but there was no expression. Brad originally thought that Robert would be angry, but when he saw Robert Kingsso, his expression was very calm, as if he had expected it.
"I understand, Netflix's director has always been like this. What does De mean? What does he want?" Robert Kingsor said very "reasonably".
Brad, who had already prepared a lot of reasons, suddenly didn't know where to start. Before he could start to talk, Robert Kingsso seemed to have believed his words.
"Reid's meaning is that he hopes that Netflix and Renren Film and Television will reach a film and television copyright alliance. Netflix is willing to abide by the copyright agreement formulated by Renren Film and Television, jointly develop film and television copyrights, and maintain the copyright order of the entire film and television industry!" Brad said to Robert Kingsso.
After a meaningful look at Brad, Robert Kingsso stood up and reached out to Brad, "For Netflix, I and Renren Film and Television have always hoped to cooperate. Renren Film and Television is willing to reach a film and television copyright agreement with Netflix, but please tell Reed for me, don't forget today's agreement!"
He personally sent Brad out of the door. After Robert Kingsso returned to the office, he wrote Netflix on paper. What Netflix wanted to do, Robert Kingsso knew clearly. When he left Yanjing, Chen Chu specifically told Robert Kingsso to be on guard against Netflix, Amazon and others.
Renren Film and Television established a film and television copyright alliance not only for Netflix, Yahoo Video, but also for itself. Several major video website wars have caused the price of film and television copyrights to soar. If they can form a joint force, they can get enough bargaining power.
Just like the domestic video website industry in later generations, it was dissatisfied with huge film and television copyrights, sky-high pay, and several major video websites jointly formulated rules, limiting the price limit of purchasing videos, the salary limit, etc., but in fact it was all for themselves.
