Zhao Xuming's plan was completed a few hours later.
He might not have talked to these live-stream platforms, but Zhao Xuming had been dealing with these live-stream platforms for many years. He knew very well that this plan was perfect, and most live-stream platforms had no reason to reject it.
That was because on the surface, these platforms would actually be at an advantage after adopting this plan.
Of course, it was hard to say whether they were actually at an advantage.
In any case, Tengda would be the one profiting no matter what. Even if it was a win-win situation, Tengda would definitely win more.
He sent the plan to Boss Pei again, and this time, he quickly got a positive answer.
The reply was so fast that Zhao Xuming wondered if Boss Pei had read the details of the plan seriously.
However, considering that Boss Pei was talented and the general framework of this plan had been determined before, it was not strange that Boss Pei read it quickly.
Zhao Xuming definitely would not let Boss Pei read it again and look at the details. Wouldn't that be stupid?
He looked at the time. There was still more than an hour before he got off work.
There was no time to lose. He quickly took this opportunity to communicate with the Vice Presidents of the live-stream platforms and finalize the general framework of this cooperation to avoid any complications.
As far as Zhao Xuming knew, several live-stream platforms were frantically fighting for the broadcasting rights of GOG's international invitational tournament on the surface. They were even seeking exclusive broadcasting, but they were also making preparations behind the scenes.
They had long planned for not being able to obtain the broadcasting rights of GOG's international invitational tournament.
After all, these platforms were fighting too fiercely. What if one platform really spent money to buy exclusive broadcasting rights? What about the other platforms?
Of course, they had to be prepared so that they would not be at a loss.
This preparation was actually a helpless move after they could not obtain the broadcasting rights of GOG's international invitational tournament. They could only take out some resources for IOI's competition.
They had to take care of one of the two sides. It would be difficult for these live-stream platforms to survive until now if they did not even understand this.
Originally, if the broadcasting rights were sold normally, it would be fine for these platforms to make preparations, and Zhao Xuming would not care.
However, the plan had changed now. Boss Pei's attitude was obviously 'I want all of them'.
Naturally, Zhao Xuming's method of advancing the specific plan had to change.
He first called the Vice President of Wolf Fang Live-Stream, Zhu Yan.
"Hello, President Zhao. Is there any news about the broadcasting rights?" Zhu Yan's attitude was quite enthusiastic.
The two of them had worked together a long time ago. However, at that time, Zhao Xuming was trying his best to promote the domestic broadcasting rights of the ICL league.
Now that Zhao Xuming's identity had changed and he had become the person-in-charge of GOG's local server, Zhu Yan had to build a good relationship with him.
Although he was puzzled by President Zhao's promotion, it might not be a bad thing for Zhu Yan to continue to deal with President Zhao.
After all, the two of them were more familiar with each other. Dealing with Boss Zhao was more reassuring than dealing with Boss Pei.
Wolf Fang Live-Stream was one of the two major platforms that emerged after fierce competition in the country. It also started with the gaming business. Naturally, it was very eager for the exclusive broadcasting rights of GOG's international invitational tournament. It was also the platform that was most willing to pay a high price.
The highest goal of Wolf Fang's live-stream was to obtain exclusive broadcasting, but this was a little difficult. After all, they might be rich, but it was difficult for them to offer a price that Tengda could not refuse.
Therefore, Zhu Yan felt that the most realistic situation was to achieve the minimum goal, which was to obtain the broadcasting rights.
However, how could he spend less money on the premise of obtaining the broadcasting rights? That was the crux of the problem.
Zhao Xuming smiled. "Boss Zhu, I've sent you the new plan. This is the plan that Boss Pei has agreed to. If there are no problems on your side, we can follow this plan."
Zhu Yan perked up when he heard that it was the plan that Boss Pei had agreed to.
Boss Pei nodded. This plan was basically right and would not be changed.
"No problem, Boss Zhao, please wait a moment."
Zhu Yan immediately opened the plan on the computer in his hand and quickly glanced at it.
Then, Zhu Yan's eyes widened and he revealed a shocked expression.
Originally, Zhu Yan had a high psychological expectation for the price of the broadcasting rights of GOG's international invitational tournament.
That was because it should be worth that much!
If it was an unknown small competition, the broadcasting rights would actually have a lot of flexibility and room for maneuver. However, GOG's international invitational tournament was different.
It was not only because last year's international invitational tournament was very successful, but it was also because the GPL league and the GOG league around the world had accumulated a lot of popularity. All of this popularity would explode in the GOG international invitational tournament.
This level of popularity was completely predictable.
If the operator of GOG was not Tengda but another company, they would probably try their best to raise the price to the limit that the various live-stream platforms could bear.
These live-stream platforms did not have a good solution. They could only sell everything they had and accept it.
However, Zhu Yan was a little taken aback and surprised by the plan he saw now.
First of all, they agreed on an extremely low minimum amount of ten million yuan.
It would not be difficult for any small platform to squeeze out this minimum amount, not to mention the rich and powerful Wolf Fang Live-Stream.
After all, the broadcasting rights of the GPL's Spring Competition were already more than 12 million yuan.
Of course, there were additional requirements. In addition to the minimum amount, they had to calculate additional money according to the popularity of the live-stream. The higher the popularity, the more money they would pay. There was a specific formula.
However, things like heat could fluctuate and change.
Based on the expected popularity, Zhu Yan estimated that the amount of money would be about 35 million yuan.
On the other hand, Zhu Yan's psychological expectation was that the broadcasting rights would be 30 to 40 million yuan, and the exclusive broadcasting rights would be over 100 million yuan.
What's more, his psychological expectations could fluctuate slightly.
There was even an even more shameless choice. If he reduced the popularity himself, the money he would give would be reduced accordingly.
That was because the plan only looked at the popularity of the live-stream to the audience. It did not mention anything about the live-stream platform changing its own popularity.
If it was not written clearly in the contract, it would leave room for wrangling.
Boss Zhao and Boss Pei would definitely not make such a low-level mistake. That meant that this was not important.
Of course, if they made it too popular for the sake of face, they would have to spend more money.
However, no matter what, the decision was in the hands of the live-stream platform itself. They could control whether they wanted to spend more or less.
Not only that, but the plan also stipulated that the platform's recommendation resources could be used to convert this amount of money.
For example, based on the original popularity, they would have to pay 40 million yuan. How much was a recommendation spot on the homepage worth? After a few days, this money could be deducted from the 40 million yuan.
Of course, the value of these recommendation spots was decided by Tengda. It was roughly calculated based on the traffic and popularity of the various platforms. It would not be much different from the real value of these recommendation spots.
However, no matter what, to Zhu Yan, the recommendation spots on his own platform were not worth anything at all!
Of course, the recommendation spots would affect the overall arrangement of recommendation resources. If he did not push them well, it would be equivalent to a loss.
However, no matter what, it was not worth as much as real money.
Zhu Yan looked at this plan several times. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that he had made a huge profit. It was a little difficult to understand.
Boss Pei had turned into a philanthropist?
That was impossible. It did not fit Boss Pei's character.
Boss Zhao taking matters into his own hands?
That was even more impossible. Boss Zhao was not such a person. What's more, Boss Zhao had said from the beginning that Boss Pei had nodded.
Zhu Yan said in surprise, "Boss Zhao, this plan is really bright!"
"I can't believe it!"
"Is there … anything special about this plan? Boss Zhao, please explain. "
The plan was so generous that Zhu Yan was worried that there was a trap.
Zhao Xuming smiled. "I don't have any special meaning. First, this plan allows everyone to freely control the popularity. After all, the international invitational tournament is a very lively event. Everyone would be able to share in the joy together. The other is to recommend resources. Boss Pei places a lot of importance on that, especially when it comes to IOI …"
"You understand what I mean, right?"
Zhao Xuming's words were more vague, but Zhu Yan quickly understood.
What did he mean by letting everyone share the joy?
In fact, he meant to use this method to sell GOG's broadcasting rights to more platforms to get more popularity.
Why did he mention IOI?
Obviously, he was saying that Boss Pei hoped to get more recommendation resources from various live-stream platforms than IOI!
All in all, Boss Pei's meaning was actually very clear: I can charge less for the broadcasting rights, but the popularity of GOG's international invitational tournament must be maximized, especially the popularity of IOI's global finals!
What? You're saying that it was already crushing?
As for how to crush them even more, that would depend on everyone's performance.
Zhu Yan had an idea.
Zhu Yan would find it strange if Boss Pei only wanted to reduce the price without asking for anything else.
However, it was not strange now. That was because Boss Pei gave up a portion of the benefits because he wanted something. However, he wanted popularity. He wanted to crush IOI's global finals and give IOI one last blow!
That would be easy.
Zhu Yan was really afraid of offending Boss Pei. After all, live-stream platforms relied on Boss Pei's games. What's more, Boss Pei's personality was rather strange. No one could guess his thoughts. Many times, they could not cooperate even if they wanted to.
It was most important not to offend such a person. Maintaining a good relationship with him was the most important.
Zhu Yan quickly made a decision.
If GOG wanted recommendation spots, he would give it to them!
In any case, IOI's broadcasting rights had been finalized. They were bought at a clear price, and there were no requirements for recommendation spots.
Since these recommendation spots could be discounted here, he would pile up more for GOG.
This was obviously the most profitable choice for live-stream platforms.
They might not be able to buy exclusive broadcasting rights and other platforms could also buy broadcasting rights at a low price, but everything was negotiable for Wolf Fang Live-Stream as long as the price was low.
The price that Boss Pei gave was enough to dispel most of their dissatisfaction. They even had to be grateful.
As for whether IOI would have any objections …
First of all, the live-stream platform and IOI's broadcasting rights did not have so many twists and turns. They were all clearly priced. The money had already been paid. What could they do about me arranging recommendation spots?
Secondly, Long Yu Corporation's attitude towards IOI's local server was obviously not as positive as before. It was hard to say if Long Yu Corporation would be angry because of this matter when they heard that Long Yu Corporation was working with Tengda to develop games.
From Tengda Corporation to the various live-stream platforms to Long Yu Corporation, they probably would not have much of a reaction to this matter.
The only ones who would react would probably be Finger Games and Dayak Corporation.
But so what? These live-stream platforms would not deal with them directly.
Thus, no one cared if IOI would have any objections. Giving more recommendation spots to GOG's international invitational tournament was an inevitable choice given the double factors of popularity and money.
Zhu Yan immediately said, "I understand, Boss Zhao. We'll definitely get all the recommendation resources!"
"I don't care about other platforms, but on Wolf Fang Live-Stream, I guarantee that the first thing the audience sees is GOG!"
