That night, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing boarded the plane and headed for London.
There were eight bodyguards with them, six men and two women. All of them were Covert Power experts.
There were so many football hooligans in Europe, and Xiao Yunhai was mainly worried about Zhao Wanqing's safety.
After flying for about eight hours, the plane landed steadily at London International Airport.
It was ten o 'clock in the morning in London, and the International Football Association had already received the news. The vice president, Brandon Dreiser, personally came to pick them up.
In the car, Xiao Yunhai said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Dreiser, we're late."
Brandon Dreiser waved his hand and said, "It's okay. Our recent rehearsals haven't been going well, and we've only made some progress today. Even if the two of you came early, you could only wait. "
Xiao Yunhai asked, "Then, Mr. Dreiser, when are we going to rehearse?"
Brandon Dreiser said, "Mr. Xiao, Miss Zhao, you must be tired from the journey. Take a good rest and get over the jet lag. We'll start rehearsing tomorrow."
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "We came here on a private plane, so we've had plenty of rest. I think we should start this afternoon. The sooner we finish rehearsing, the better. "
Brandon Dreiser laughed and said, "It's great that the two of you can think this way. Since that's the case, let's go to the hotel now. After lunch, we'll go to Wembley Stadium for rehearsals. The dancers are fine, so the two of you just need to practice with them. Tomorrow, we'll rehearse from beginning to end twice, and we'll be almost done. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "From what you've said, it seems like we're the only ones left. You just said that the rehearsals weren't going well. Haha, it seems like we've really delayed the rehearsals. How about this, I'll treat all the actors to a meal this afternoon as an apology from us. "
Brandon Dreiser waved his hand and said, "Mr. Xiao, you don't have to do this."
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "It's settled then. We're not familiar with London, so please help us book a hotel. "
Brandon Dreiser saw that Xiao Yunhai wasn't being courteous. He shrugged and said, "Alright, then I'll do as you say."
After lunch, they rested for half an hour. Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing went to Wembley Stadium. At this time, there were already hundreds of people practicing there. Most of them were young people.
Seeing the arrival of the two international superstars, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing, everyone waved at them enthusiastically.
The director of the opening ceremony introduced the general process to the two of them. He mainly talked about when they would appear on stage, within what range they would perform, and how to leave the stadium.
The rehearsal didn't end until six o 'clock in the evening. When they heard that Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing were going to treat them to dinner at a five-star hotel, everyone shouted happily.
The atmosphere was very lively that night. It went on for more than two hours before it ended.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing walked hand in hand on the streets of London. When they returned to the hotel, it was already ten o 'clock in the evening.
After taking a shower with Zhao Wanqing, he came out and found that there were more than ten missed calls on his phone. Almost all of them were from Robert.
Perhaps he saw that Xiao Yunhai was busy and didn't answer, so Robert sent him a text message.
"Boss, Steyr Networks has made a bad move. They just announced on their homepage that the World Cup will not be broadcast on IMD TV. Instead, it will be broadcast live on the Steyr Video Network."
After reading the text message, Xiao Yunhai immediately turned on his computer and clicked on the Steyr Networks homepage. Sure enough, the message appeared on the homepage.
Xiao Yunhai snorted and said with a cold smile, "Truly, the evils brought upon themselves are the hardest to bear."
Zhao Wanqing, who was drying her hair, heard her husband's words and asked, "Honey, who are you talking about?"
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "I'm talking about Steyr Networks. Haha, they announced that they will broadcast the World Cup live on the Internet. As a result, fans in Asia will have to pay to watch the World Cup. Do you think they will be willing to do that? "
At the auction, Xiao Yunhai guessed that David Steyr spent more than 30 billion US dollars to get the rights to broadcast the World Cup in Asia so that they could broadcast it on the Internet. Firstly, they could sell it for more money. Secondly, they could completely build up the reputation of the Steyr Video Network. At the same time, the advertising fees would not be low. It was killing three birds with one stone.
However, he miscalculated one thing, and that was whether the fans would be willing to pay to watch the live broadcast.
In this world, everyone's awareness of being authentic was very strong. They were used to spending money to listen to music and watch movies. However, it depended on the situation.
Other places could watch the World Cup on TV for free. Only Asia had to pay to watch it on the Internet. It would be strange if the fans' hearts were balanced.
Steyr's actions would only arouse the disgust of hundreds of millions of fans in Asia. There was no benefit at all. It could even be said that it was a serious failure. It was very likely that it would be boycotted by all of Asia.
Xiao Yunhai did not understand why David Steyr, who had always been shrewd, would make such a stupid decision.
In fact, Xiao Yunhai had wronged David Steyr.
Steyr Networks had already decided on charging to watch the World Cup in Asia before the auction. Later, David Steyr also discovered this problem. However, it was too late. More than 30 billion US dollars had already been spent. They could not let it go to waste. Thus, they had to bite the bullet and make such a decision.
Originally, IMD TV could broadcast it in Hua Xia. However, the rest of Asia paid to watch it. It was not suitable for Hua Xia to broadcast it for free, so they could only treat it equally.
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Honey, you're right. David Steyr did make a bad move. What are you going to do? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Of course, I'm going to hit him when he's down. He just created the three major websites, the video website, the music website, and the business website. He's touched too many people's cheese. It's fine if he doesn't make any mistakes. Once he does, he'll definitely be attacked by everyone. This time, it's not just the video website. The other two websites will also be severely affected. Haha, now I just need to be the vanguard to attack him and set an example for everyone. Naturally, countless people will respond. "
Zhao Wanqing thought for a while and said, "I think you don't need to do this at all. Just leave it to Wu Yifa, Brother Man, and Sister Hu. They have more experience than you. "
Xiao Yunhai's eyes lit up. He nodded and said, "That's right."
Xiao Yunhai took out his phone and dialed Wu Yifa's number.
"Old Wu, what are you busy with?"
Wu Yifa laughed and said, "I'm busy finding trouble with Steyr Networks. I finally understand what it means to bring disaster upon oneself. He can even think of such a money-making idea. Has David Steyr's brain been kicked by a donkey? "
When Xiao Yunhai heard that, he laughed involuntarily and said, "You all know about it?"
Wu Yifa said, "Nonsense. Steyr Networks created the three major internet companies with such great fanfare.
Who knows how many pairs of eyes are watching them. I'm sure I'm no exception. Let me tell you, after this news was posted on their homepage, I received more than ten calls in less than half an hour. They all had the same meaning, and that was to join forces to destroy Steyr. Haha, see, I'm busy making arrangements for this matter. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Alright, then I won't disturb you. I wish you all success. "
After the call ended, Xiao Yunhai smiled bitterly and said to Zhao Wanqing, "I'm really worried about nothing. These people are all people who won't wake up early if there's no benefit. They've already started making arrangements to attack Steyr. "
Zhao Wanqing laughed and said, "That's normal. The business world is like a battlefield. It'd be strange if they let go of such a big loophole. Hubby, since you're interested in Steyr Networks' shares, why don't you let Christy use this opportunity to publicize it? "
Xiao Yunhai's eyes lit up and said, "That's right. Steyr Networks' market value is more than two billion USD. It's too cheap for them to buy it like this. If the share price can fall, even if it's just a dollar, we can save a lot of money. "
Just as he finished speaking, Xiao Yunhai's phone rang again. He took a look and saw that it was Christy calling.
Xiao Yunhai shook his phone and chuckled. "Speak of the devil and he will appear."
