My Age of Investment

  Chapter 704 Public Opinion Superior

"A letter of thanks to the cutest 300 million YouTuber. Some time ago, the copyright disputes that caused troubles in the operation of YouTube and affected the user experience have been nearly resolved successfully. Thank you for your continued support, encouragement, and help... "

  At the beginning of the questionnaire survey, it was still the old rules. First, I put a bunch of rainbow farts, affirmed the various help YouTuber has provided to the platform during this period, and then talked about the topic.

  "Why is it that the problem is only close to a satisfactory solution? It is because YouTube has reached cooperation agreements with most film and television production and entertainment companies to explore a win-win solution together.

  Only one company, News Corp., has not yet reached a cooperation. At the same time, News Corp. stated that it refused to withdraw the lawsuit and would continue to claim one billion US dollars from the oil pipeline. "

  After introducing the problems that the platform still faces, I started a questionnaire survey.

  "What do you think of this lawsuit?

   Option A, support the oil pipeline to fight to the end. This is a kind of commercial blackmail and cannot be compromised;

   Option B, to support News Corporation’s claim.

  If the copyright lawsuit is protracted and the dispute cannot be resolved for a long time, YouTube may not allow users to upload copyrighted videos owned by News Corp. Will this affect your experience on the platform?

  Option A, it does not affect at all, I never only watch and upload original videos;

   Option B, the impact is very small, rarely watch and upload related videos;

   Option C, the impact is greater, but it can be overcome;

  Option D, the impact is very big, the platform must get the copyright of News Corp..."

  ……

  There are not many questions in the questionnaire survey. They are all investigating the public support rate of the copyright dispute between YouTube and News Corporation, and the impact of not allowing the upload of relevant videos.

  In addition to YouTube, Facebook has also been sued by News Corp., so it also sent a questionnaire similar to that of YouTube.

  The online questionnaire survey is very convenient, and soon the survey results of the two platforms were released.

   "Haha, contrary to the results of the investigation conducted by News Corporation's media on the streets, we have collected millions of questionnaires, and more than 90% of users support Facebook and YouTube to bring this lawsuit down.

  It seems that most people still have sharp eyes, knowing who is the righteous party. "

  In the meeting room, the dog said and smiled triumphantly. He was really satisfied with the results of the survey. It also showed that the oil pipe has completely gained the upper hand in the support of public opinion.

   "In the beginning, I questioned that News Corporation might be operating in a dark box. How could 90% of passers-by support them. Now the truth has become clear. It is absolutely that they have distorted the facts and tampered with the true approval rate."

   After that, the foreign girl looked at Xia Jingxing and asked, "Dalun, what do you think?"

   "Do you still have to think about it? A plain fact!"

  Xia Jingxing shook his head. News Corp. can do things like eavesdropping in pursuit of profit, so what can be done by changing the questionnaire.

  He looked at Luo Li on the side, "You contact Viacom and their five companies, and everyone will take out News Corporation’s report at the time and make a face.

  This kind of thing that hits the credibility of News Corporation, they can profit from it, they must be interested. "

  Luo Li nodded, indicating that she had written it down.

  The little dog then reports.

  "We are unable to reach a settlement with News Corp. The two major platforms will now prohibit uploading all videos whose copyright belongs to News Corp.

  For this matter, more than 90% of users feel that there is no impact, and a few% of users say that the impact is very small and can be overcome.

  Only less than one percent of users indicate that they will be greatly affected. "

  As soon as the little dog finished speaking, Luo Li went on to say: “Dalun, this is similar to what we originally guessed. Not many people care about News Corp.

  As long as we can cooperate with the five major Hollywood giants, as well as some other film and music production companies, the copyright issue is almost completely solved.

  Although it is still not perfect, it has minimized all the impact, and users will understand us. "

  Xia Jingxing nodded, "You are right. The result is indeed similar to our guess, but it is a conjecture after all. Without investigation, there is no right to speak.

  Look at this questionnaire survey we have done, in addition to continuing to attack News Corporation in public opinion, it can also give users a reminder.

  In the future, after some videos cannot be uploaded on the platform, everyone is mentally prepared and naturally will understand more.

  At the same time, the responsibility does not lie with us. It is News Corp. who is stuck on it. Even if it does not reconcile, it has also issued a blackmail-like claim at a high price.

  Think about it, after such a series of incidents, have YouTube and Facebook users’ perceptions of News Corp become worse and worse? "

  Lori thought for a while and nodded.

   Undoubtedly, so much work on tubing is not done in vain, and it has caused a lot of damage to the News Corporation brand.

  Especially some young people feel that News Corp. is insatiable, small and caress about...

  "This is cutting meat with a blunt knife. It is unpleasant but very painful."

  Xia Jingxing said with a smile: “After this incident, News Corp should be able to clearly realize that the tubing’s ability to manipulate public opinion is no weaker than them.

  Even because our users are younger, they are more likely to be motivated to do things to maintain the platform and fight against platform opponents.

  The users of News Corp. are not housewives or elites. They will not listen to the orders of News Corp.

  I think that News Corporation should not try to attack us through public opinion, because not only cannot achieve commercial purposes, but it is also easy to be countered by us.

  Next, we and News Corporation should enter the stage of a stalemate in the lawsuit. Everyone must have new understanding and psychological preparation.

  They don’t play tricks on public opinion, but it’s actually good for us, they can free up their hands to deal with lawsuits.

  In addition, public opinion is actually a double-edged sword, and it is better to use less. "

When    was speaking, Xia Jingxing was also thinking about it. Fortunately, the public opinion incited control in a timely manner and did not come up with anything that could not be done.

  He didn't want to use this trick, but News Corporation deceived people too much and used its own media resources to discredit them all over the world.

  Even in China, there are voices accusing him and YouTube of trampling on intellectual property rights.

  If left alone, there will be great reputation loss and potential economic loss to YouTube and Facebook.

  Now Youtube and the five Hollywood giants have reached a cooperation, even if they do nothing, do not talk about it, more sane users can see the problem.

  Other companies can peacefully co-exist or even cooperate with Tubing. Why can’t News Corp. do?

  Is the tubing reluctant to spend money? Or is News Corp too greedy?

  Now that the cooperation is announced, the oil pipeline has actually become invincible in public opinion.

  Before on the Internet, there have always been more objective and neutral voices. They think that the oil pipe is indeed infringing the copyright of other companies. The compensation of one billion US dollars may be too exaggerated, but an explanation must be given and an attitude to solve the problem must be given.

  Now Youtube and the five Hollywood giants have reached a cooperation, which shows that they have not ignored the copyright issue, but have taken a correct attitude to solve the problem.

  On this point, it has aroused the favor of many neutrals.

  In their eyes, Tubing is no longer a thief company, but a responsible enterprise, respecting intellectual property rights and respecting the results of other people’s labor.

  The United States places great importance on intellectual property rights, and copyright laws are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

  Tubing can reach copyright cooperation with the five Hollywood giants. In the long run, there are many potential benefits to the platform. People of all walks of life and all ages cannot fault the platform.

  As for News Corporation that has not reached a cooperation, they are not allowed to upload their videos, or if they find that they have been uploaded, it is fine to delete them immediately.

  The copyright issue, whether in public opinion or in law, is no longer a big issue for the oil pipeline.

  Internally, after so many things, Xia Jingxing believes that most users can understand that just a handful of News Corp. videos will not cause any lack of content.

  After all, after all, YouTube is still a video platform dominated by original videos.

  After the Hulu video goes online, people interested in copyrighted videos will diverge some of them, and there will be no complaints about the rest.

  Xia Jingxing discussed with the foreign girl, little dog, and Luo Li in the conference room for a while, and soon reached a new consensus in this war with News Corp.

  Never flinch, unless News Corp takes the initiative to find them to reconcile, otherwise it will continue to fight with each other to the end.

  Now that the people are all set up, even if the YouTuber wants to reconcile, most of the YouTubers will not support it, and there will even be serious protests and public opinion backlash.

  Furthermore, News Corporation is now afraid that they can't wait to have them. The contradiction between the two parties is irreconcilable, and there is almost no hope of reconciliation.

  Then only the court can tell.

I broke down on the highway the day before yesterday and returned home very late. I worked until 5 a.m. the next day, that is, it was more than 5 a.m. yesterday. I slept for two or three hours and got up again. So yesterday I was too tired, very early. Fell asleep. No update, sorry to everyone, and normal update will resume today.
