Chapter 583 The gap in thinking
Although Jobs could not completely obey Lin Qi's business vision, he still admired Lin Qi's business vision. After meeting, he really humbly asked for advice. On his desk, there was also a huge USB drive that Lin Qi gave him. This thing reminded him almost at all times, how amazing Lin Qi's business vision was.
New technologies in the world are being born every moment, and no one knows whether those new technological investments will become waste paper for warehouses or popular products.
Lin Qi's power lies in his strong will, he has devoted himself to one new technology that has changed the world one after another. Those technologies have really succeeded, and he has continuously created huge wealth for the new entrepreneurial department.
Although this thing is considered an antique and only has a small and pitiful capacity of 1MB, Jobs opened the text and pictures inside for a long time and read it carefully.
"The NTV system is said to be quite user-friendly and there is no need to change for the time being. I personally think that the business model should be changed. NTV should launch paid programs. Users need to purchase point cards to recharge their own account. For example, those paid channels of TV networks can be discussed with TV networks. NTV will list their channels on NTV and adopt a new charging model every month. For example, a channel charges $2 per month, and users choose whether to open it themselves, NTV channels charge $1. TV media charge $1. In this way, NTV still charge $1.
However, if you don’t have a TV network all over the United States, you can turn your head and ask for money on CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX, CW and other TV networks." Lin Qi said with a smile, "Users can choose subscribed paid channels through NTV, instead of directly choosing paid channels for different TV networks. You need to buy a family bucket of different TV networks! A platform has cross-network selection channels. As long as this model is accepted by the market, NTV can also build its own network and become a media giant that is stronger than traditional TV networks!"
This sentence touched Jobs' heart. What he had always pursued was to build Apple into a high-end independent platform. He also imitated the platformization of new entrepreneurial electronics, and Jobs was doing exclusive games, VCDs, software, etc. on the NTV platform.
At the same time, with the distribution of TV, it has in-depth cooperation with major TV networks. No one can ignore it. It has a smart TV brand with more than 10 million users!
"Mr. Lin's idea is really unique. There is an old Chinese saying that listening to your words is better than reading for ten years. This is how I feel now."
Jobs was full of admiration.
"No, I should be listening to you and saving you ten carts of books. This is the real purpose of serving Shang." Lin Qi joked.
"If this is the case, assuming that the user scale in the future will reach 50 million, and each user will subscribe to 10 channels on average, which will be $1 billion in revenue per month, and more than $10 billion in a year!" Jobs fell into thinking and was ecstatic... If he was really that awesome, he could step on all the TV media giants in the United States!
Because, with such income, he is the biggest giant!
This is not advertising revenue. If, plus advertising revenue, there may be 15 billion in revenue a year, and the profit will not be less than US$2 billion!
If you can make money like this, what other world market is needed?
The traffic entrance that monopolizes the entire US TV network market is enough to make Jobs' blood boil!
Lin Qi was good at temptation, so he naturally knew Jobs's little jiuji. It was because he knew that Jobs had too much ambition that Lin Qi set a big goal for him and asked Jobs to gradually make it around this big goal. However, the beautiful prospect was to fight against the five major American TV giants.
After the fight, even if I complete the hegemony, it has been used for many years.
By then, Jobs's energy would have been put on the TV industry and the US market. His layout in other markets around the world would naturally be very slow.
"People don't keep staring at a well-made TV and studying its craftsmanship. That's the matter of TV manufacturers. People only care about the content presented on the screen. Many choices are passive. You are more from the perspective of developers, so there will be some misunderstandings." Lin Qi said, "In order to avoid the restraint of traditional TV network manufacturers, you need to invest in the network yourself. There are a large number of users, so your network can be profitable. After building the network, you need to have a large number of your own programs, which is not inferior to traditional TV networks! First, if you have the most stable channels and the best viewing content, you will not be subject to TV networks and those content providers."
Jobs thought about it, and he really didn't seriously consider this issue. Jobs mainly asked the R&D team to develop products he recognized with his own eyes.
However, Lin Qi's depth is even higher, not only requires good product experience but innovation. What's more, an innovative product must have a package of business models behind it.
It cannot be a product launched. The user said it is so powerful, because I tried it and bought it, and only paid the initial hardware fee. But it cannot generate a steady stream of other income.
In order to make long-term investments in platforms other than selling hardware to make a difference, it is a more stable business model. Otherwise, once you cannot develop popular hardware, or if your hardware profits are challenged by your competitors, your profits will be reduced again, then you will encounter very difficult problems.
Lin Qi’s business model is more about making income more stable and long-lasting.
Well, in fact, among listed American companies, the market value of film companies that simply make movies is not very high. Those film companies with high market value, such as Disney and Warner Group, are more valuable from their TV networks. The revenue of these TV networks is really as stable as a dog than investing in movies, and they rely on the advertising and paid content of TV networks to gain benefits, which makes these giants more stable and lasting than those gamblers who are purely gambling about movies.
Jobs thought quietly for a while, and was enlightened. He opened his eyes suddenly, and danced with excitement, knocking over the freshly cooked tea.
"Mr. Lin's ideas are always so magical. You can see a big picture from very small things. Although I regard Mr. Lin as my confidant, it is still a lot worse."
Jobs was very convinced and secretly glad that he was kicked out of the door by Apple. Fortunately, he fled to Lin Qi in anger, otherwise he would not have achieved what he has today.
