The fundamental reason why the hungry wolf persists in the porcelain country is the wolf pack. The wolf pack is a nuclear power device that continuously powers the aircraft carrier of the hungry wolf. As long as it can operate and continue to provide energy, the hungry wolf will never be defeated.
If you want to deal with the hungry wolf, you either destroy the wolves' pack of nuclear powered devices and cut off the channel for the traffic conversion of the hungry wolf; or you can directly steal the power of the search aircraft carrier, that is, the traffic.
It is not impossible to defeat the wolf pack in the social field, it is just that it is very, very difficult.
The wolf pack was established in 2001. At that time, it was not just their chat software, but only the wolf pack has lived to this day. It has been 13 years now. Although the user activity is still amazing, he is old after all, and the hungry wolf has not made another WeChat message like he did in his previous life. So if Xu Xing made WeChat, it could theoretically shake the status of the wolf pack.
But this is just theoretically. In terms of conditions without a certain user base, no matter what product you make, you are making wedding dresses for hungry wolves. Xu Xing obviously does not meet this condition.
His idea of fighting against the hungry wolf is the second point, to plunder traffic that originally belonged to the hungry wolf, that is, the duration of use by netizens.
Short video platforms cannot replace WeChat QQ's status as social platforms, but they can steal WeChat QQ's traffic and user duration.
Social platforms will still exist, and the overlord will still be a pack of wolves, but he may no longer be able to occupy the center of the stage.
The daily active users and usage time of short videos in previous life have exceeded instant messaging, and even Penguin has used all kinds of shameless moves. Why? Because Douyin stole the time of users who originally belonged to WeChat QQ.
But the effect is minimal. Why? Because the traffic of Douyin is not lower than that of QQ WeChat, it is impossible to compete in bayonets. Douyin is really not afraid of these two kings.
It takes half an hour for modern people to play games on their mobile phones. It takes thirty or forty minutes to watch a video episode, and even one or two hours to movies. Girls go shopping on Taobao, and men watch news for about ten minutes.
But social software is different. You may turn around in the group and do something else, or you may fight with the group members for hours. In short, this thing is definitely the most time-consuming application for everyone on their mobile phones.
Short videos are inherently highly overlapping with the time taken by social software. On the Internet, the longer they are used, the greater the traffic, and you can do a lot of things based on huge traffic.
Penguin has been a role model for all the deeds over the years. Xu Xing is not so ambitious, and what he is thinking about is just to make an overseas version of Douyin.
Why not release it in China?
First of all, the domestic live broadcast industry is at its peak. When short videos are launched at this time, it is not only the hungry wolf that offended, but all the four kings.
Secondly, TikTok was sold well overseas in his previous life. Although this world cannot be said to be stable, it is better than exploring without experience. If you really gain a foothold abroad, the output bonus for Xingtian animation will be too huge.
Thinking about how we can get news and videos of long song animations on TikTok every day, I ask them if they are curious and if they want to watch it.
Of course, it is far from enough to fight against the hungry wolf with short videos, so Xuxing’s plan has video websites, mobile game markets, and allies that can be won over.
The production of short videos is actually not difficult. The grass platform team formed by Xu Xing has developed a pure version of the platform in a few weeks, which is just a function that allows users to upload videos.
There are only two things that are really difficult for short videos: music and special effects. The difficulty of music lies in copyright. This world is not like in the previous life that you could get on the bus and then get a ticket. If you use music blindly, you will be accused.
So Xu Xing found BBT and asked them to help him contact Lancie Company, one of the island giants and the world's three major music copyright owners. As long as they obtain their authorization, Xu Xing basically doesn't have to worry about music copyright.
Of course, BBT is happy to make friends. Why don’t you do anything that can benefit? Xu Xing promised that Changgexing would still be handed over to BBT for distribution, an animation company with famous works, and no matter how you think about the next work, you won’t lose money.
As for Lan Ci, everyone is old friends. Although they make music and equipment and have no penny to do with animation, the TV station is still willing to give face.
So Xu had to go to the island country again after doing this. The island country is really conservative. Now Skynet is so developed and is still used to face-to-face communication. Unlike in China, Xu Xing made video conferences when he negotiated with people. TX invested and talked as soon as he started.
Another difficulty is special effects. Xu Xing is also actively acquiring a live broadcast plug-in studio company to make his short video special effects reach the most and most cool level in the industry.
After making an appointment with the island country to meet, Xu Xing had to leave the production of Changgexing again and ran to District 11 alone.
Lan Ci, the owner of Xu Xing, the Chinese animation company in China, didn't care much about them. Their size was hundreds of times larger than Xing Tian, so they sent a manager from the music department to negotiate.
He Jian Gongshu is an old employee of Lan Ci. Due to his solid business ability and stable person, he finally got promoted four years ago.
He Jian Gongshu, a company that requested the authorization of Lanci Music, signed three music companies in Guangguang Ci Country. It was because of his experience that the superiors asked him to come and communicate with Xu Xing.
Lanci has always been generous in licensing music. As long as the money is in place, it will not be stuck just because you are a certain country. Capital does not have a country in their eyes, and they only see benefits.
Xu Xing wanted more than just Lan Ci's music authorization. His main idea was to cooperate with Lan Ci and use their connections in the island country to help TikTok promote it.
It is not difficult to produce short video products. The company formed by Xu Xing promised to complete the version of TikTok in at most two months. This speed is really amazing, but Xu Xing still thinks it is a bit slow.
Tsurumi Kosu and Xu Xing made an appointment with a Japanese-style izakaya. The Chinese nation and the Chinese nation who talked about things at the dinner table also liked to do this.
The izakaya that Tsurumi Koshu made a appointment is a frequent visitor. Here he has received hundreds of company representatives who want to be authorized. He also likes the sake of this store. It brewed by the owner himself and it is very pure.
"Hello, is it Xu Jun?"
"Yes, hello to Tsuruchi."
The two shook hands and sat down opposite each other. He saw Gongshu not in a hurry to discuss the authorization, but kept introducing the characteristics of the store like Xu Xing.
Although Xu Xing has been here several times, he has eaten Chinese food. For food from the island country, he has only eaten simple food such as Guandong, udon noodles, and borscht.
