I’m Almost Losing to a Muggle

As I mentioned last time, how is the price reduction for big members going? Lin Dong asked.

Large members are common throughout the cat factory.

Miaoer Music and M Station are the platforms with the most users, and M Station accounts for about 35%, second only to Miaoer Music.

Lin Dong blasted other video sites at the Internet conference.

The reason is that the person in charge of Kiwifruit stated that the increase in membership fees is not an innovation, but an inevitable trend of industry development.

This is an inevitable price increase. We invested a lot of money. In the past, an episode of TV series cost several thousand yuan. Now even if we don't rely on copyright procurement, copyright procurement starts at 2 million yuan per episode, and everyone can basically watch it. The TV dramas start at 2 million yuan, and if they are broadcast exclusively, it may cost 6 million or 8 million yuan, so the cost has increased, and based on profit requirements, it must also increase.

Don't Bilian.

Why are drama series copyright purchases so expensive? You don't have any idea.

Dozens of video sites were squeezed to death by you in the end, leaving only a few of you.

Finally, I feel that I can start cutting leeks.

Lin Dong didn't show mercy at all, he got too addicted to talking in entrepreneur forums, so he scolded in front of Internet bosses.

He didn't just swear and call it a day.

That's called a sprayer.

Lin Dong is not a troll.

After he came back, he asked the big members to reduce the price.

He believes that it is an unhealthy business model to rely on members to raise prices to achieve profits, which is a kind of damage to the interests of the audience, and it is also a negative effect on promoting the birth of high-quality works in the industry.

Let's not ask for big members.

Most of the works on the platform can be watched for free, and new works can be paid selectively.

There are so many dramas in your family, but most of them are bad dramas.

I may only watch one drama at your house throughout the year, so why do I have to be a member for a few months.

The point is, after signing up for membership, I still have to pay for it.

Simply free.

Excellent works can be charged, and we are willing to pay for good works.

Works that can make the audience willing to spend money must have quality.

In order to make the audience spend money, the platform and the producer can only continuously improve the quality.

At that time, American dramas, Japanese dramas, and Korean dramas will all have to stand aside.

This is the driving force for the development of the industry.

We are already lowering, the first wave of lowering, mainly to explore the rules of lowering prices. Qin Baoer breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not a big deal.

In fact, Station M does not rely much on the revenue of big members, and the price reduction is also good for their DAU growth.

At this stage, robbing users is still the main theme of the four major video sites.

What rules are needed for price reduction? Lin Dong didn't know why.

Price cuts don't matter to new members, after all, they spend less money to enjoy the same service, mainly because it is unfair to existing old members...

For the same service, why should old members spend more money to pay for it.

You can roughly say that it is your bad luck that you did not catch up with the good times.

But that is unreasonable.

And hurt feelings.

Members who are willing to open the cat factory have been open for several years because of their trust and love for the cat factory. Those who have been members for a long time are the most solid foundation for the cat factory.

When there were no restrictions in the early days, some people even opened a cat factory for ninety-nine years.

It cost more than 20,000 yuan.

I can get a refund after contacting the customer service. They only said that they are not short of money, and they are optimistic about the future development of the cat factory.

What a pride.

Now, new members are lowering their prices step by step, so what do old members think?

It's not a question of bad money.

It's a question of disgusting or not.

Then how do you plan to solve it? Why don't you refund them, or even calculate interest for them. Lin Dong didn't miss any chance to make less money.

If he really doesn't want Bilian anymore, he can refund one and pay three.

Not all old members are willing to accept refunds, Qin Baoer explained: We have researched several solutions. In addition to refunds, one is that the overall price is reduced, and the current price will be used. For the conversion time, we will extend the membership of the old members.

This seems to be okay. Lin Dong agreed.

It doesn't count if you usually do discounts for activities, Qin Bao'er added, and then said: The second method, according to the first method, the extra money is recharged to the user's account, and the user can use the money to spend in the cat factory.

good.

At this time, the canteen has already started serving food.

We don't understand why the boss has to pay if he comes to the cafeteria to eat alone.

When talking about work, you must also record the accounts and send them to logistics.

However, when the boss comes to eat, the specifications must be full, and the apprentices stand aside and let the chef serve.

Quality and quantity must be guaranteed.

This kind of operation is relatively routine, and there are others that are more unusual. For example, old members can use these converted special money to increase their membership level. When the level reaches a certain level, they can give priority to purchasing Maochang products. Qin Baoer Look weird.

Compared with the previous ones, refund, postponement, recharge, the last one is the most popular.

Cat factory product purchase qualification This is very popular.

The new energy vehicles of China-made Shenmiao belong to the products of the cat factory.

So is the TV.

Robots too.

The same is true for artificial intelligence peripheral products.

Even photolithography machines are.

It's just that so far, no big member can afford it.

On the contrary, there are many people on the Internet who take it as jokes.

The 180-level member of the cat factory buys the third-generation lithography machine on behalf of him, and the handling fee is only 5%.

There are billions of things, and 5% is a lot of money.

I really don't know if there is such a joke, but it is impossible for Maochang to sell the lithography machine because of the big members.

Lithography machines are not available to anyone who wants to buy them.

Except for the first-generation lithography machines with relatively backward technology, which can be purchased at high prices, the new second-generation and third-generation EUV lithography machines are hard to find.

In China, you have to pass the assessment of the chip alliance and think that you have this demand at the technical level.

If it is out of the pot, you have to exchange it for something of equal value.

The person in charge of the operation is naturally Guo Jia's father.

Some people don't value buying cat factory products.

They simply want to upgrade.

Are upgrades that important?

certainly!

At present, different levels of big members correspond to different levels of products.

For example, members of the 49th level are eligible to purchase new energy vehicles.

But you can only buy it yourself.

This made many old members of Maochang who were queuing up very happy.

I didn't expect that I bought a big membership for listening to music and watching videos. At that time, I bought it for 30 years to save trouble. This is converted into a membership level, and I can jump in line to buy a car directly.

Happy.

Most of the old members of the cat factory, in fact, only have the qualification to buy the surroundings of the cat factory.

That's pretty amazing too.

The extra money from the big member price reduction will only be more if you refund it.

The level of membership of the cat factory is not available even if you have money, and there is no way to do leveling. You can only accumulate time with time, and there are still a few tasks that can give you some experience.

These missions are also rather strange.

For example, there is a big member who often uploads harmonica playing teaching videos on the short video of Miaoyin. The task he receives is to go to a mountain village school to teach harmonica to the students in the school.

For a period of National Day.

Miaoliang Cultural Fund reimbursed him for the whole process, and besides not spending money, he also gained some experience as a big member.

There are many similar situations. Under big data, everyone has their own strengths to play.

Big data is not a bad thing, it is just easy to be used by bad people to do bad things.

I'm a bit too tired, and it's inevitable that there will be mistakes. Please help me to point it out. I will change it tomorrow. Good night everyone, (′‵)I L you guys
