Chapter 1101 – Multi parties’ cooperation (Part two of two)

Feng Yu shook his head. Does Zhang Chaoyang think that Sohu will be the only party that will benefit from this cooperation?

“Manager Zhang, you all should also work with Sina to provide links to each other. You all are also publishing news, but Sina is better at news reporting than you all.”

Zhang Chaoyang had to admit that Sina is doing better than Sohu when it comes to online news. Sina still owns an overseas company. If Sohu can acquire that overseas company, our news will be the fastest!

“Sina can share their news reports with you all, but you all must pay them for the articles. I know you all and NetEase are also publishing online news, right?”

“Err.... I need to consider this.”

If we use another company’s news articles, it will mean Sohu is not as good as Sina.

“Up to you. Sina will be setting up branch offices in every province. It will hire a group of online reporters to collect news all over China. The users will be shown the top local news from their log in IP addresses. The news articles will be narrowed down to individual cities in the future, and Sina will be China’s top online news media!”

Feng Yu had discussed it with Wang Zhixi. Sina will be focusing on online news. This way, their views will increase, and can charge more for their advertisements.

Sina can also work with local media to exchange news articles and occupy the Chinese online news media’s top seat. After all, they are currently the top online news media in China.

After that, they can focus on developing Weibo, and they had already invited several celebrities and stars onto this platform. The celebrities also include sportsmen and women, entrepreneurs, etc.

Since Weibo had started, Weibo’s charges users for using their real names and photos. This is to prevent impersonation. For this purpose, Sina also worked with the Public Security to verify the users’ identification for a fee.

Weibo will not charge their users for the basic functions, but additional features are only available for VIP users.

Since those celebrities started their Weibo, many people also registered Weibo accounts to follow their favorite celebrities. Those celebrities who were hired by Sina must post some updates at least once a day.

Feng Yu also registered his own Weibo account with his real name. But Feng Yu used a picture of a dragon as his portrait. This is to symbolize he is a Chinese descendant.

Feng Yu had wanted to use the Wind and Rain logo as his display pic but changed his mind.

Since Feng Yu had started his Weibo account, the rest of the higher executives in Wind and Rain Holdings, Tai Hua Holdings, also registered accounts to follow Feng Yu.

That means they will be notified of Feng Yu’s updates once he posted something. But at this time, there is no blacklist, and it is very frustrating for Feng Yu. There are too many people following him, and almost everyone in his companies is following him. Feng Yu hopes that he can stop certain people from following him.

So, Feng Yu told Wang Zhixi to improve on the features of his Weibo. He can engage Qiandu to add in filter features on the Weibo and limit the people who follow Feng Yu. Feng Yu does not want anyone to follow him, and a blacklist feature is a must.

Also, Weibo users do not need to post lengthy messages on Weibo. The users should be able to post even one word.

I told you to invite those celebrities onto Weibo is not for them to attract fans. You can also advertise on the celebrities’ Weibo page and share the advertising fees with the celebrities.

Also, didn’t you notice Wind and Rain Electronics, Wind and Rain Home Appliances, etc. had registered their Weibo accounts? I had told you that companies can make use of Weibo for their advertising and public relations. This can be considered as another website for the companies.

Have you visited my Weibo account? This is considered as the company’s top executives’ Weibo account, and is good for personal branding and promoting their company. Simultaneously, the executive can use his influence to get their followers to do some charity acts.

But all these executive accounts, company accounts, or brand accounts must be registered with their real names, and users must pay for it. Especially companies’ accounts. Companies will be using this platform to advertise for their products, and we must charge them. Without us, this platform will not exist, and we had spent so much money to build this platform.

Wang Zhixi was stunned by what Manager Feng said. How did Manager Feng think of so many ways to earn money? What are those people in the company doing?! Why didn’t they come up with these ideas?! No wonder Manager Feng can become Asia’s top billionaire!

Feng Yu told Wang Zhixi to cooperate with other companies. Since Feng Yu had helped Sina think of ways to make money, cooperating with other companies will benefit everyone. Why should Wang Zhixi reject this cooperation? After all, Sina also wants to promote their blogs.

Zhang Chaoyang agreed reluctantly after he knows Wang Zhixi had agreed. “Alright. I will participate in this cooperation.”

“Good. Sina’s bloggers will help you all promote your products, and you must pay them a fee. Suppose Sina, Sohu, NetEase, Tencent, Qiandu can work together, you all will become very powerful, and you all should set your sights out of China!”

“Out of China?! What do you mean?”

“I know all of you want to be the biggest Chinese website. But you all are only thinking about being the biggest in China. Have you ever consider stepping out of China one day?” Feng Yu asked.

“Are you referring to Sina, acquiring an overseas website?”

“You can do that, or set up an overseas branch. Think about this. Sina’s overseas website is providing China news now. Why can’t you all also expand your websites overseas? Although the profits from forums are lesser, you all had started pay-per-download for many movies and TV series? Many of these movies and TV series are overseas, right? Have you ever thought that foreigners might like China’s movies and dramas?”

“Err... there might be a language barrier. Can this work?”

“How will you know if you don’t try? But let me remind you. You must monitor this Sohu video and make sure no illegal videos are uploaded. If the website is ordered to shut down, don’t blame me for making you pay for the consequences!”

Damn! Sohu must not become another adult website! Feng Yu still have important plans for Sohu in the future!
