Huang Xiaojie said: "Mr. Zhou means that he must keep it on in the early stage and wait until the future, after strict copyright protection regulations are included, then commercialize it?"

"So, it can be said." Zhou Yujie nodded and said, "So, in addition to expanding Tiantian Mengting's market share, taking advantage of the low price of music copyrights during this period, expanding copyright is one of the important tasks. As long as you obtain enough copyright, you can at least gain a place in the future."

Wang Zhigang asked: "Mr. Zhou, even if the current copyright price is low, if you want to acquire enough copyright, the amount you need to add up is not a small amount."

Zhou Yujie shook his head and smiled: "We are just acquiring some valuable music copyrights. We have never thought about monopolizing them. And even if the copyright is not valuable now, we are not able to buy it as soon as we want to. There are always people who disagree."

If you can monopolize music copyright, you will naturally have the monopoly of using music software. But if you want to do this, the funds required are very large. Toutiao will currently invest a certain amount of resources into the music industry, but the amount will not be too large. As long as it can ensure that most legal loopholes can be filled in the content industry and short video era in the future.

If Toutiao promotes it well in the future after acquiring Tiantian Tooting, then you can also use Tiantian Tooting to raise funds and then make a separate layout in the music field.

Wang Zhigang and Huang Xiaojie looked at each other. Zhou Yujie's reply made them feel real. Compared to the previous meeting with Ma Yun, the future plans of every day were hyped up so much that they entered the Taobao system and created a new music future together. It always makes people feel unreliable.

Seeing that the temperature was almost done, Lin Youde smiled and said, "Mr. Wang, Mr. Huang, let's discuss the price today."

......

Two hours later, Lin Youde personally sent Wang Zhigang and Huang Xiaojie downstairs and arranged for the company's business car to take them to the Hilton Hotel.

The two of them didn't say much in the car arranged by Toutiao. After arriving at the hotel, Huang Xiaojie asked: "Lao Wang, do you plan to sell it to Toutiao in this way?"

Wang Zhigang said, "You don't want to go to Ali, are you?"

"You are the major shareholder, you have the final say." Huang Xiaojie said with a smile.

Wang Zhigang said: "The price offered by Toutiao is not worse than Alibaba. Although we can use Toutiao's quotation to talk to Alibaba, it may be a little higher, but this is not very meaningful. It would be good if we could spend more than a few million dollars. If we distribute the shares, we would only earn more than a million dollars.

Compared with returns, I value the future development of Tiantian Mengting. No matter how nice Ma Yun said, his fundamental purpose was to use Tiantian Mengting’s traffic to attract traffic to Taobao. And no matter how nice it is, the equity will belong to others in the future. Isn’t Alibaba’s final decision? As far as I know, half of Xiami’s current top management is from Alibaba. It is estimated that Wang Hao will have to leave with the money in a short time."

Wang Hao is the founder of Xiami Music. After Xiami was acquired by Alibaba, although he was still the CEO of Xiami Music, he could no longer have the right to make complete decisions on all Xiami's decisions. The management of Alibaba's Kong School is slowly eroding his power.

"This situation is actually very common. Not only Alibaba can do this, but who can be sure that Toutiao will not do this?" Huang Xiaojie said with sadness.

Wang Zhigang nodded and said, "There is a possibility, but I don't think it's a big possibility.

Toutiao is a traffic-based enterprise with huge traffic and needs monetization channels. This is very similar to Tiantian Mengting, so from this point of view, Toutiao will at least not suck blood from Tiantian Mengting.

The second is that Zhou Yujie has so many businesses. Although they often cooperate with data interoperability, they all develop independently. Zhou Yujie himself only participates in strategic planning and never interferes in details. If he can treat Tiantian beautifully like this, I would be happy to follow some of his plans. In this regard, the results of Toutiao are proof."

Huang Xiaojie thought for a while and said, "If you think this way, it makes sense. Then let's agree to the Toutiao quotation?"

Wang Zhigang shook his head and said, "I said that the quotation is not important. What is important is the beautiful results in the future. Therefore, the focus of the subsequent price negotiations is not on the transaction price, but on the fact that we can retain some of the shares."

Huang Xiaojie frowned and said, "It's not too difficult to keep a part of the shares. It's just that Zhou Yujie's meaning. In the future, I'll buy copyrights in a large way. This will definitely require a large amount of capital injection. We may not be able to keep up?"

Wang Zhigang said: "I naturally know that I don't want too many shares. If there are too many, Toutiao will not agree. As for the future, it depends on the situation. If you really can't reduce the shares, it will be better than no shares now."

"That's true." Huang Xiaojie nodded and said.

Wang Zhigang said: "Let's go and find Lawyer Zhang. We have to plan carefully for the next acquisition negotiations."

......

The next day, Tiantian Dongting's team and Toutiao's team once again negotiated the acquisition because the bosses of the two companies had basically had the intention to merge, and the rest was Tiantian Dongting's employee allocation, office address arrangement and acquisition price. The negotiations between the first two were quite smooth, while the third item was stuck.

In the afternoon, Lin Youde came to Zhou Yujie's office with the content of the meeting.

"They want to keep 10% of the shares?" Zhou Yujie said with a smile as he looked at the record.

Lin Youde said: "Yes, Wang Zhigang insists that their team should maintain 10% equity, of which he himself is 5%, Huang Xiaojie is about 2%, and the remaining 3% is held by all other employees.

Moreover, they have also considered the beautiful investment needs in the future every day and said they will try their best to keep up with the needs of headlines."

"I am not very ambitious, but I'm afraid they won't keep up in the future." Zhou Yujie said with a smile. Even if Toutiao only invests a small part of its resources to enter Tiantian Mengting, it will start with hundreds of millions of yuan. It may even be this amount every year. 10% of the shares means that they have to invest tens of millions of millions. Even if they sell Tiantian Mengting's money, it is probably good to last for a year.

Lin Youde said: "But if you don't agree, Wang Zhigang's attitude is very firm. There is nothing better about the current music software on the market. If you delay it, it may affect our plan."

"Then promise him, it's always good to have ambition." Zhou Yujie said with a smile.

In the Internet industry, the company's senior management should be regarded as partners rather than subordinates. The partners have sufficient ambitions, which will be even more beneficial for themselves who hold large shares.
