Chapter 925: Other Live Streaming Platforms Are Panicking!

The efficiency of Longyu Group and Rabbit Tail Live is very high, and after some simple communication, at noon the next day, the approximate contract was completed.

The reason why it was done so quickly was mainly because Longyu Group was in a hurry.

The ICL league has begun to be promoted, and the preliminary preparations such as the venue are basically no problem, but the live broadcast has not been finalized for a long time.

Those live broadcast platforms are obviously also in a hurry for Longyu Group, so they deliberately dragged it back, wanting to press the price again.

But what temper is Eric? How could he get used to these people?

Except for the fact that sometimes he has to endure Mr. Pei, in other situations, Eric basically can't bear it.

After thinking about it, Eric felt that since you live broadcast platforms all want to lower the price, so insincere, then forget it!

Anyway, it is the same to sell to any live broadcast platform, and Mr. Pei gives a lot of money and ensures publicity, so it is not impossible to cooperate.

In terms of strength alone, Rabbittail Live Broadcast really can't be compared with several veteran live broadcasts, but if it is really as Mr. Pei promised to use some of the resources of Tengda Group to publicize, then the energy of Rabbittail Live will definitely not be worse than other platforms.

Therefore, under the condition that Mr. Pei was very tolerant of the price and conditions, the two sides quickly reached an agreement.

The main points stipulated in the contract are as follows:

First of all, this is an exclusive broadcast contract, and only Rabbittail Live can broadcast the ICL league live on the whole network. The price is still the same as previously negotiated, 35 million.

Secondly, the contract requires Rabbittail Live to invest a lot of resources in promoting the ICL league, both on and off the website. Of course, Longyu Group will also spare no effort to promote the ICL League.

Thirdly, if some force majeure or special circumstances occur, such as insufficient website bandwidth, live broadcast freezes affecting viewing, major public opinion events, etc., the party at fault shall bear certain losses, and the other party can unconditionally terminate the contract. Of course, after the termination of the cooperation, Longyu Group will partially refund the amount according to the actual loss, and the exclusive broadcasting right will also be released.

Finally, there is a supplementary clause. Even if both parties are not obviously at fault, when one party wants to forcibly terminate the contract, they do not need to pay sky-high liquidated damages, but only need to pay 20% of the price, that is, 7 million, to terminate the contract.

It stands to reason that this last clause should not be used, because if both parties strictly fulfill the provisions of the contract, ICL's live broadcast and publicity work should be very successful and will not be forced to terminate the contract.

The reason why this supplementary clause was added was mainly because of the rival relationship between the two sides, which made Eric very distrustful of the cunning and cunning Mr. Pei.

And for Pei Qian, this contract is completely fine. After the legal departments of both sides studied and decided, Pei Qian sent Chen Yufeng to take people to the magic capital, formally sign the contract, and discuss detailed cooperation matters.

……

Yangcheng, ZZ Live Headquarters.

The new functions that Liu Liang had arranged before had been developed in a state of 996, and a stone in his heart had finally landed, and he could rest for a while.

Recently, he also had a few phone calls with Zhao Xuming, and briefly communicated his opinions on the issue of ICL broadcast rights. Liu Liang's thoughts are the same as Mr. Zhu of the wolf's tooth live broadcast, hoping to lower the price again.

The ICL league is about to be held, and there is not much time left for Zhao Xuming, and in the end, most of the time he has to make some concessions.

Of course, Liu Liang didn't want to make too much trouble, after all, he had to cooperate later. As long as Zhao Xuming means something, and then reduce it by more than one million and return the broadcast rights of the ICL league to its rightful value, Liu Liang plans to buy it.

It's just that Zhao Xuming called very diligently before, but today he didn't make a single call, which surprised Liu Liang a little.

At this moment, Liu Liang heard a rush of footsteps outside his office, and then someone knocked on the door.

"Enter."

Liu Liang looked up and saw that it was the employee who was responsible for docking with Longyu Group on matters related to ICL broadcasting.

"What's the hurry, talk slowly."

"At work, you must maintain a calm and natural, not arrogant and impatient mentality, how can you do a good job if you panic first?"

"In the future, you must be like me and not be surprised."

Liu Liang saw that this guy didn't even breathe, and criticized him for his breathless behavior.

The employee was not in the mood to dwell on these details, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Liu, something is wrong!" ”

"It seems that the finger company is going to sell the exclusive broadcast rights of ICL to Rabbittail Live!"

Liu Liang's expression changed instantly, and he jumped up directly from the chair: "Rabbit tail live broadcast? ”

"Exclusive rights?"

"When's the thing!"

"Why didn't you say it earlier!"

Liu Liang's series of questions cut his head and covered his face, and the employee was confused.

"Mr. Liu, I just learned about this matter. The two seem to be talking about cooperation very quickly, it seems to have been finalized in just a day or two, the specific details are not clear, but it seems that there is a good chance of negotiation......"

Liu Liang fell into a state of confusion.

This was so unexpected that he didn't expect it at all!

Rabbit tail live broadcast and ICL league, no matter how you look at it, they are two things that don't match each other at all!

Mr. Pei said before that Rabbittail Live does not constitute direct competition with other live broadcast platforms, it is a platform that focuses on knowledge and education, and the publicity and live broadcast content of Rabbittail Live when it was first launched did verify this.

It stands to reason that even if you want to do live game broadcasting, you should first dig up a few big GOG streamers or broadcast GPL to test the waters.

As for the ICL league, what about the good finger company and Tengda Group? What about IOI and GOG's biggest competitors?

Eric and Zhao Xuming suffered so much loss from Mr. Pei, shouldn't they directly refuse to cooperate with Mr. Pei?

Liu Liang actually thought about whether there would be other live broadcast platforms to grab the exclusive broadcast rights of ICL, but after a few days of observation, he felt that this possibility was very small.

Because the price of ICL's broadcast rights is already inflated, there is no need to take such a big risk to buy exclusive broadcasters when this league is not sure whether it can be run well.

Wouldn't it be good for everyone to work together to lower the price of the broadcast rights and get the broadcast rights of ICL together with the lowest cost and the least risk?

But I never expected that Mr. Pei's rabbit tail live broadcast suddenly jumped out!

This disrupted Liu Liang's overall plan, making him a little at a loss and without a master.

In the past, he also told his employees to calm down and maintain a non-arrogant and impatient mentality, but now he is even more panicked than his employees.

The two of them stared, and the employee hurriedly asked, "Mr. Liu, what should we do?" ”

Liu Liang's brain was running quickly: "I'll call Zhao Xuming!" ”

If the contract between Longyu Group and Rabbit Tail Live has not been signed, then there is still the possibility of cutting off the beard.

Everyone knows that Mr. Pei has always been vigorous and efficient, so Liu Liang did not dare to delay and immediately called Zhao Xuming.

It sounded a lot all the time, and the other side picked it up slowly: "Hey? Mr. Liu, is there something wrong? ”

Zhao Xuming's attitude is indescribably calm and comfortable.

Liu Liang chuckled in his heart, feeling that the situation was not good.

Before, Zhao Xuming rushed to him to sell the broadcast rights of ICL, and his attitude was very polite, and he gave him all kinds of preferential conditions.

But now, there was obviously a coldness in Zhao Xuming's tone.

Liu Liang hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhao, I heard that you are talking to Rabbittail Live about the exclusive broadcasting rights of ICL?" ”

Zhao Xuming was noncommittal: "Ah, what's wrong?" ”

Liu Liang: "Mr. Zhao, you are a little inauthentic!" We've been talking about the broadcast rights before, and we haven't talked about the results yet, and you suddenly want to sell the exclusive broadcast rights to Rabbittail Live, and you don't know if you will say anything, it's a bit unreasonable, right? ”

Zhao Xuming smiled: "Oh, Mr. Liu, in fact, I originally planned to tell you tomorrow, when we officially signed the contract with Rabbittail Live." Heck, we can't be blamed for that, the main thing is that you don't show much interest in the ICL league, and of course we're going to have to find a more suitable buyer. ”

Obviously, Zhao Xuming is also unforgiving now, although he won't say anything serious, but he can't avoid sarcasm with a gun and a stick.

Because Zhao Xuming also begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother to find these live broadcast platforms to promote the broadcast rights of ICL, but as a result, the vice presidents of these live broadcast platforms lowered the price and postponed them one by one, and played a good Tai Chi boxing, which made Zhao Xuming hold back the fire in his belly.

Can you do the first year of junior high school, but can't I do the fifteenth?

Now in this situation, I must be refreshed verbally and deal with the evil anger of the previous few days!

Liu Liang didn't dare to say anything, and hurriedly continued: "Haven't signed the contract yet? That's good. Mr. Zhao, it's not that we're not interested in the ICL league, it's mainly that we're still investigating it before. Now that the results of the investigation have come out, we also want the broadcast rights of ICL! Why don't you sell it at the price you came up with? ”

"10 million, what do you think?"

Zhao Xuming smiled: "I'm sorry, I really can't sell it." To tell you the truth, the conditions given by the rabbit tail live broadcast are very, very generous! It's just that I can't disclose the exact amount. ”

"Actually, Mr. Liu, I can also understand your thoughts, after all, the ICL league is a newly founded league, and no one can guarantee that it will succeed, and it is indeed very risky to buy broadcast rights at a high price."

"In that case, you don't have to take these risks for now. After this season is over, when the broadcast rights are sold next season, let's talk in detail! ”

"I'm sorry, I still have work to do here, hang up first, let's get back in touch."

After Zhao Xuming finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.

"Hello? Feed! ”

Liu Liang was simply angry, and walked around his office three times in a row.

On the one hand, he was angry because of the change in Zhao Xuming's attitude before and after, and on the other hand, he was also angry because of the rabbit tail live broadcast.

What kind of calculation is this Mr. Pei!

While saying that the rabbit tail live broadcast will not pose a threat to other live broadcast platforms, the main focus is knowledge content, but as a result, we spent a lot of money to buy the exclusive broadcast rights of ICL, which caught us off guard!

But it's useless for Liu Liang to be angry, because soldiers are not tired of cheating, shopping malls are like battlefields, and it is normal to release some fake news.

Mr. Pei is such a fictitious and unpredictable person.

Liu Liang paced back and forth in his office, thinking about what to do about this matter.

Seeing that Zhao Xuming's attitude is so resolute, the rabbit tail live broadcast must have given benefits and prices that cannot be refused.

This is also normal, after all, Mr. Pei is very willing to spend money no matter what industry he does. If you want to make the old enemy Finger Company give up the previous hatred and work together, this money is definitely a lot of money.

In other words, unless several live broadcast platforms such as ZZ Live and Wolf Tooth Live join forces to offer a much higher price than before, adding up to more than 20% or more of the price of Rabbit Tail Live, it is possible to cut off the beard.

But this leads to a very awkward situation:

In the past, it was possible to win about 9 million, but now it is necessary to add another three or four million or even more, which is a blood loss and difficult to accept mentally;

The interests of various live broadcast platforms are not completely consistent, and they have to buy broadcast rights at a high price together, and if one live broadcast platform does not follow, this cooperation will not be negotiated.

But what if the ICL's broadcasting rights are waived?

Although it doesn't seem to be much of a loss on the surface, everyone knows how sensitive Mr. Pei's sense of smell is to the industry and how well he grasps the game and e-sports industry.

In the field of games and e-sports, Mr. Pei can be called a godfather-level figure, and he is afraid that no one dares to admit the first in China.

Mr. Pei took a fancy to ICL and directly won the exclusive broadcast rights of ICL at a large price, does this mean that the value of ICL is far beyond everyone's imagination?

So, if you miss this opportunity, will you regret vomiting blood in the future?

Now the price is increased by three or four million, and there is still the possibility of giving it a go, what if the price increase of five million or six million cannot be bought in the future?

Liu Liang never expected that in just one or two days, the situation would take a sharp turn for the worse.

"Forget it, I have to sign a contract tomorrow, and now it's too late to join forces with other live broadcast platforms to cut off Hu. It is also unrealistic for our family to grab the exclusive broadcast rights, the price is too high and the risk is too great, not to mention that Mr. Pei will definitely continue to bid with us. ”

"It can only be said that Mr. Pei's shot was really steady and ruthless, and he calculated the reaction of the finger company and several of our live broadcast platforms, and took advantage of such an excellent opportunity to directly grab the exclusive broadcast right of ICL."

"We can only take one step at a time, if ICL and Rabbittail Live don't cooperate well, maybe we still have a chance to ......"

Liu Liang thought about it, but he didn't come up with a good solution, so he had no choice but to give up and wait and see what happened.
