I was back yesterday!

Xue Xiangui's cheerful voice rang.

Li Rui was speechless: Why didn’t you tell me when you came back?

Xue Xiangui said: After I came back, the company had a lot of things waiting for me to deal with. I was busy all day. Today I was with my family. I originally planned to find you to gather tomorrow. Why? Is there something urgent to ask me for?

Li Rui said: There is no hurry. It’s Saturday tomorrow, so I’ll find some time to talk.

After a few greetings with Xue Xiangui, hanging up the phone, Li Rui turned on the computer and searched the Blockbuster website using Google engine.

Although Blockbuster has gone bankrupt, its website is still there. A pop-up pop-up pops up when logging in, reminding users that Blockbuster has entered the bankruptcy process and hopes that users who hold the stored value card will go to the nearest store to process the balance as soon as possible.

After closing the pop-up window, Li Rui carefully browsed the entire website.

The messages on the page were all stuck more than two months ago, and it should have been no one maintained, but most of the functions of the website are still alive.

Especially for online business, although it is placed on the secondary page, it can still be rented and watched after jumping. You can also see several popular movies this year on the list.

"Avatar", "Toy Story 3", "Iron Man 2", "Twilight 3", "Despicable Me"

There are actually "Inception" and "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows", both of which were released not long ago, and Blockbuster went bankrupt as early as September.

It seems that after Blockbuster went bankrupt, its operations continued and did not die completely.

Although the online business is far worse than the booming Netflix, it is not worthless.

Li Rui thought for a long time and sent some additional messages to Yu Na.

[Hunter]: Help me investigate three things. First, is Blockbuster's online business still operating, how many employees, how many users, how many film sources, what are the cooperative film manufacturers, and the contract with film manufacturers continues to

when.

[Hunter]: Second, where has Blockbuster’s current bankruptcy liquidation been underway? Is the online business sold separately? If it is sold, what is the price?

[Hunter]: Third, please help Lixin’s people ask Netflix executives to ask if they have any financing needs.

Yu Na did not reply, she must have been asleep.

Li Rui was not in a hurry.

No one wants such a mess except him, and he is not afraid of being stolen.

The appearance of Blockbuster reminded Li Rui that this is a good opportunity to enter the film and television industry in Magnesium.

In 2010, Hollywood released many masterpieces, especially "Avatar", which broke various records, making many people feel that Hollywood has ushered in another spring.

But only industry insiders know that Hollywood and the film and television industry it represents are facing huge challenges.

For a long time, DVD sales and leasing have been the second largest source of revenue for film companies after the box office of the movie, but this share is decreasing year by year.

In 2009, this figure fell by 13%.

This year, Paramount released two Oscar-nominated blockbuster movies "The Fighter" and "The Earth Thunder". It is said that they should have made a lot of money, but unfortunately, due to the decline in DVD sales, the overall income is not as good as last year.

The same is true for Warner, with total profits falling by 5%.

Who made the audience abandon DVD and develop the habit of watching movies on computers, mobile phones and even iPads? For the first time in history, global digital media sales exceeded the combined revenue of cinemas and DVDs.

This directly led to the bankruptcy of Blockbuster and also sounded a wake-up call for the entire film and television industry.

Many practitioners, including senior executives of film companies, are confused and don’t know where they will go in the future.

Although Netflix defeated Blockbuster, Netflix is ​​actually very confused, and they will take many detours in the future.

Li Rui knew that Netflix would make mistakes. He was considering whether to invest in Netflix and make mistakes together and finally embark on the road of success, or choose Blockbuster, the old shell, to put it in his new wine, and take advantage of Netflix to make mistakes and replace it.

?

Currently, Netflix's online business is mainly mailed, and it has a very excellent video recommendation system. It can give the most appropriate recommendations through user data analysis, greatly increasing the user's rental rate.

Recently, with the collapse of Blockbuster, Netflix realized the outdated traditional mailing business and made every effort to carry out download and online streaming services. The web headline has just increased by 7.99 mg/month, through PC, Mac and TV.

Promotion of watching movies as you wish.

But in this regard, Netflix still has many competitors.

Apple itunes, Amazon, Google youtube, and even Microsoft and Facebook want to get a piece of the industry.

Two years ago, hulu, the three giants of NBC Global, Disney and News Corporation jointly invested and founded!

This is a battlefield where many heroes compete. Everyone is exploring and is tug at the war to distribute their interests.

No one can see the end, they are gritting their teeth and persevering, hoping that they will be the last one to survive.

Li Rui knew that he was destined to be involved in this battle, and the difference was that he would participate in the battle now or fight again in the future.

Let’s wait for Yu Na’s reply, and we have to go and have a good talk with that person.

Without that person joining, Li Rui would not win this battle.

At home, until the sky was getting darker, Li Rui went downstairs to a nearby noodle restaurant. As soon as he ordered a bowl of beef noodles, his cell phone rang.

When I answered the phone, Tao Yuanyuan's charming voice sounded: I've done what you told me, are there any rewards?

I'll treat you to a meal. Li Rui said.

Tao Yuanyuan said: I happen to be hungry. It’s better to choose a day than to have a day. I want to eat now!

Come on. The address of Li Rui newspaper.

Twenty minutes later, Li Rui was leisurely sucking the noodles, and Tao Yuanyuan walked into the noodle shop.

She was wearing a seasonal Chanel luxury dress, carrying an LV bag, prada, and Tiffany jewelry all over her body. This outfit was replaced with beef noodles, which was probably enough for children in poor areas across the country!

Such a jewel-like master, the noodle shop owner and the customers have never seen it before, so I was a little stunned.

Tao Yuanyuan sat opposite Li Rui in front of everyone, pulled the menu and said: Just eat it yourself, don’t wait for me? Boss, come with a bowl of capillary beef noodles. Then a plate of toothpick meat and a plate of seaweed.

Silk.

It was different from Li Rui's guess. She thought Tao Yuanyuan would be disgusted, and even furious, but she didn't expect that her face was full of joy and didn't seem to care about the level of the noodle restaurant.

When the beef noodles came up, she even took out a wet wipe to wipe off the red lips of the fiery flames, opened the hygienic chopsticks, and grabbed a chopstick with the meat on the noodles, and started chewing.

Li Rui was beyond the reach of such a fierce way to eat!
Chapter completed!
