"I want to set up an online movie and video website!" Jia Yapeng thought for a while, and then gave a specious answer.

"Online movie video website? What is this?" The wrinkles on Zou Wenhuai's face squeezed together.

Online movie video website, this is a name that Zou Wenhuai has never heard of and has never heard of.

Although Hong Kong already has the Internet in this era, people in their 60s, like Zou Wenhuai, are still completely unfamiliar with websites.

In fact, in this era, you randomly find 100 people in any country in the world, and those who know what the website is, probably won’t have more than three people.

"It's a website that broadcasts movie videos online. Anyone can watch movie videos through the Internet. Of course, this requires copyright permission!" Jia Yapeng said with a smile.

"The Internet is the thing that keeps making buzzing sounds like a cat's meow, showing a picture that has to wait for dozens of seconds?" Mr. Zou Wenhuai turned out to be exposed to the Internet.

In fact, it was the first time that Hong Kong and Port opened the Internet in 1992. In this way, Mr. Zou is very fashionable and actually knows about cats.

"That kind of thing? Can you watch a movie?" Zou Wenhuai shook his head, wondering if Jia Yapeng's head was funny, and he had such an erotic idea.

In fact, Mr. Zou Wenhuai’s idea is not wrong. In this era, whether it is a young or a middle-aged person, he probably has the same idea as Zou Wenhuai.

Because the internet speed this year is several hundred times slower than snails and turtles.

In this era, there was no dedicated network cable, let alone optical fiber. If you want to access the Internet, you can only use the telephone cable.

Of course, the phone line cannot be directly connected to the Internet. The phone line must be connected to a cat called a modem, which is what everyone calls it.

However, the cats in 1993 are completely different from the cats now. The cats in 1993 are not silent, but will continue to make loud noises like cats. The sound is so loud that even the next room can be heard clearly.

Otherwise, why is the nickname of the modem called Cat?

So in that era, it was impossible for you to secretly surf the Internet at home, because as long as you listen to the sound, your family could catch you.

It's okay to make a harsh cat cry, but more importantly, the internet speed in 1993 is simply indescribable.

To use specific data, the Internet speed of the port in 1993 was about 20b per second.

In 2020, the size of an ordinary picture is about 3mb, while 1mb is about 1000kb, and 1kb is about 1000b. I believe that at this time everyone should be able to understand how painful the Internet speed in that era was.

So when Zou Wenhuai learned that Jia Yapeng was actually planning to set up a video website, he completely doubted whether Jia Yapeng went crazy.

"I think this dream can be realized in about 10 years!" Jia Yapeng said with a smile.

"More than ten years? I don't think it will be possible for a hundred years!" If Zou Wenhuai shook his head, this young man would be a little too young and too exaggerated after all.

In fact, this is exactly the reason why Jia Yapeng used this as a reason, because no one would believe what Jia Yapeng said. Although what Jia Yapeng said was the truth, he was already preparing for the future video website.

"10 million! All the copyrights of our 448 movies in Jiahe will be sold to you in packages!" Zou Wenhuai thought for a while, and then offered his own price.

"Is it the copyright of the movie?" Jia Yapeng asked immediately.

"It's all copyrights except videotape copyright and sequel copyright!" Zou Wenhuai said, then looked at Jia Yapeng.

To be honest, Zou Wenhuai himself thinks the price is high. After all, a movie that has passed its release period and freshness, the only source of income left is to shoot sequels and sell genuine video tapes.

Once these two rights are taken away, let alone 448 movies, even 4448 movies may not bring 10 million Hong Kong dollars in 10 years!

"This price is a bit high!" Jia Yapeng shook his head, thought for a while, and then asked, "Is it a lifetime copyright?"

"Yes!" Zou Wenhuai nodded.

"Then I have another condition, that is, I will also sell all copyrights of Jiahe in the future, except for the video rights and sequel rights, and sell them to me at a price of 30,000 yuan!" Jia Yapeng said.

"Yes!" Zou Wenhuai agreed decisively again. This is equivalent to making 30,000 yuan in vain for each movie in the future. How could Zou Wenhuai not agree?

"Okay!" Boss Jia finally nodded and agreed. When Zou Wenhuai felt a little unreal, the two parties signed a copyright agreement and handed over all the inventories of videotapes to Jia Yapeng.

Immediately afterwards, Boss Jia visited Shaw Brothers Pictures, and a series of film companies, and put forward his own requirements, that is, to acquire all lifelong copyrights in addition to the sequel rights and videotape copyrights based on the different quality of the films, at prices ranging from 1,000 to 30,000 yuan.

Even movies that have not yet been born in the future have signed an agreement to acquire them.

When these companies heard Boss Jia’s request, they were first extremely shocked, and then they became extremely happy.

Jia Yapeng’s request was like money they had picked up for free.

The copyright of these movies will not bring any profit in the company. Now that they can actually get tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars for free, it is a good thing that a pie falls from the sky.

Of course, no one questioned Boss Jia, thinking that Jia Yapeng is not a fool, and these copyrights must be reused. But the problem is that although they can see that there is a problem, they cannot see what the problem is.

On the other side, there was a naked temptation of real money, so even the smartest person was difficult to resist. In the end, everyone obediently sold the copyright to Boss Jia.

In this way, except for a very small number of Hong Kong movies that are really difficult to find ownership or even the videotapes are destroyed, the copyright of the lifelong movies of the remaining 4,000 Hong Kong movies fell into the hands of Boss Jia, and in the end it cost about 60 million Hong Kong dollars.

Moreover, all the copyrights of films that have not yet been generated in the next 30 years have been sold to Jia Yapeng by these film companies.

Shaw Brothers Pictures also sold a large number of TV series copyrights to Jia Yapeng, including the 1987 version of the Condor Heroes, Shanghai Bundesliga, Tony Leung's version of the Deer and the Cauldron, etc., and the copyright of the TV series that was famous even in later generations.

However, because the production of TV series is too large, Boss Jia no longer accepts all the orders. Instead, he carefully selected some of the copyrights of the TV series, which is basically equivalent to buying all the TV copyrights of TVB.

Similarly, TVB should not sell all the TV copyrights for the next 30 years to Boss Jia one step ahead of time.

At first, everyone was still happy, but after 2000, with the complete prosperity of the Internet and DVD markets, these film companies gradually realized what a stupid agreement they had signed.

Those film companies are fine. They can break the old company and set up a new film company to get rid of the shackles of this agreement.

But TVB is not so lucky because TVB cannot go bankrupt, otherwise their TV license will be fine, and the various brand values ​​they have accumulated over the long period of time will be gone.

tvb can only grit his teeth and bear it

So TVB, which has always been used to cutting off actors, was cut by Boss Jia, and was severely cut.
