Chapter 401 Hurricane

Regarding the ICNC TV station website, Yang Zhiyuan felt the threat, and did not play the traditional TV station. The ICNC TV station website, with an obvious Internet style, grasped the fast food era, and users watched news in fragmented style, and pushed it to users in a concise and clear manner. For news, I wish I didn't need users to search by themselves, but just open it for viewers.

Moreover, Yang Zhiyuan also discovered that the news editors of ICNC are well versed in the way of the Internet. On the short news headlines, various "shocking words" appear from time to time. It is obviously the inauguration ceremony of the general. The news headline broadcast on the ICNC website is, "Influence The event of the American National Games!"

  The news in it is serious news, but the headline, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like a serious headline. The number of clicks cheated is obviously soaring, which makes ICNC's website start to freeze.

   After experiencing the ICNC website, Yang Zhiyuan, Ferro, and Brady could clearly feel that this website may become one of Yahoo's important competitors in the future!

   "Bruno Song, what the **** are you doing?!"

  Kug saw the cautious faces of the crowd, and immediately understood that ICNC might be a threat to Yahoo. "ICQ already has its own portal, and now it has launched an Internet TV station, ICNC. He wants to start a war with Yahoo?!"

Coorg cursed angrily. Since the beginning of this year, Netscape has declined, and Microsoft has been held back by Netscape. Yahoo thought that this would usher in its own era, but who knew, first double-clicked to hunt and short hedge funds, and the entire Nas Dak turned the world upside down, double-clicking the market value of more than 20 billion US dollars at one point, becoming the world's Internet No. 1 brother.

  Currently launched ICNC, coupled with the ICQ portal, and began to compete with Yahoo for the market, Coorg felt deep malice.

  "Yahoo should add more functions. It can't just be a news website. It should add non-news content to the homepage. New functions such as email, search, instant messaging, and e-commerce must all appear on Yahoo!"

   After thinking for a while, Yang Zhiyuan finally spoke, facing a wave of competition from portal websites, as well as the menacing AOL News Network, ICNC website, etc., Yang Zhiyuan decided to let Yahoo begin to change.

   While everyone at Yahoo was discussing how to deal with competitors, they saw the homepage of the ICNC website, and a live broadcast screen suddenly appeared, and Brady clicked on it.

  In order to maintain the smoothness of the video, the clarity of the live broadcast page of the ICNC website is very poor, but the sound can be heard clearly.

  I saw a blurred page, and a man appeared on the webpage with stuttering, "Welcome everyone to watch ICNC TV. Now it's a special program of ICNC. I'm the host Williams!"

   "Today we will invite a special guest to do a special program. ICNC is a TV station that pursues truth and justice, and is willing to give everything for it!"

As Williams' voice fell, the screen on the web page switched to an expansion piece, and seeing the content in the newsreel, Coorg, Yang Zhiyuan, Ferro and others couldn't help but open their mouths, and there was only one thing in their hearts. Thought, that is ICNC crazy!

"On the wall of a Mayan city in Palenque, Mexico, a half-relief portrait is carved. The Mayans are holding a mysterious sacrificial activity, and tobacco appears in this activity. It is considered a medium between the gods and the world. !"

Microsoft, Bill Gates, Todd, and the professional media person were also watching the TV screen of ICNC. They were not much better than Yahoo. Microsoft, who vaguely guessed what ICNC was going to do, was also nervous. Stare hard at the TV screen.

  "In Latin America, tobacco began to appear on a large scale and was used to repel mosquitoes and even be one of the fire sources..."

  After a brief introduction to the origin and history of tobacco, the screen suddenly changed, and the background music began to become more intense, which made the audience watching the show feel inexplicably nervous.

   "In 1950, epidemiologists Dole and Hill published an article in the British Medical Journal, pointing out that there is a relationship between tobacco and lungs and various diseases!"

The voice of Williams came out in the news film, and in the black and white picture, the report from half a century ago appeared, "Since 1950, there have been more than a thousand professional medical papers on the effects of tobacco on the body around the world. , and the tobacco company denies these medical papers and reports, and believes that these people who are suffering from physical conditions because of tobacco have nothing to do with the tobacco company!"

"Since half a century ago, American lawsuits against tobacco companies have occurred in forty states, but so far none of the lawsuits against tobacco companies has won. Today, ICNC TV has invited an important guest. He may, Uncover for us a part of the tobacco industry, experiments and data that are not known to the public!"

  In the director's room of ICNC TV station, when Jeffrey Wegener appeared, everyone stood up and looked towards the director's room.

   "Jeffrey, can I introduce you to everyone?"

  Jeffrey Wegener looked very nervous. Anyone who saw his expression knew that this was the first time he appeared in front of the camera.

   After taking a deep breath for a while, and Williams didn't make any urging, Jeffrey Wegener finally said, "I used to work as a technical manager in a tobacco company, in fact, at the beginning of this year!"

   "I think this should be a position with a very good salary. Jeffrey, why did you choose to leave?" Williams continued to guide Jeffrey Wegener.

The ICNC TV camera stared closely at Jeffrey Wegener, saw him grit his teeth, and finally said, "I found some experimental data in the technical department. Maybe the tobacco company already knew it. I want to let More people know these data, but not allowed by the tobacco company, I had to leave..."

   "What data is that?"

   "Tobacco companies may have known for a long time that tobacco has an impact on the human body, causing effects on breathing, lungs, blood and even the heart. Tobacco companies have long known this, but they have not announced it to the outside world!"

   "The ratings of ICNC TV station reached 1.28 million!"

  When Jeffrey Wegener spoke out about the tobacco company and concealed the truth from the public, the ratings of ICNC TV station suddenly began to soar. In just a minute or two, the average ratings directly soared to more than two million.

   "The ICNC website has already started to be congested, and the number of online viewing users has exceeded 1.2 million!"

  There is also news from the ICNC website that the ICNC TV station website has already "exploded". The sudden surge of users has almost overwhelmed the ICNC website server.

At the Microsoft headquarters, when Jeffrey Wegener really said that tobacco has an impact on the human body, and the tobacco company knew about it and concealed the truth from the public, that professional media figure watched the TV He muttered to himself, "America, the sixth largest TV station is about to appear!"

  Hearing this, Bill Gates couldn't help shrinking his eyes. He didn't expect that ICNC would be so courageous, and dared to dig into the tobacco industry.

   But it is true that as people in the media industry said, ICNC threw out a pair of bombs as soon as it started broadcasting. This bombing may shake the whole of America.

Why has the tobacco industry been safe and sound for so many years, and it is still able to survive the lawsuits in various states in America. In addition to spending a large amount of lobbying and public relations expenses on congressmen every year, it is taxation. In America, tobacco, Alcohol is also one of the most important taxes, and this time the industry may also be shaken.

  The rest of the Microsoft executives were also whispering, and Ballmer said to Todd and others, "Microsoft's shareholding in ICNC TV station is too small, and more shares should be increased!"

   I only saw ICNC reporting on tobacco and nicotine. Everyone knows that as long as ICNC is not too hip in the future, it is very likely that ICNC will become another major TV network in America!

  Microsoft is also a shareholder of ICNC, but only the fourth largest shareholder, holding 7.5% of ICNC's shares. Now Microsoft feels that its shareholding in ICNC seems a bit too small.

On the Yahoo side, when the live webpage of the ICNC website was stuck to the point of blur and completely stopped moving, Yang Zhiyuan, Coorg, Filo, Brady and others did not make a sound. They knew that the ICNC website was completely overwhelmed. exploded.

   "Let Yahoo cover this too!"

   After a while, Coorg was the first to react. He knew that in the Internet media industry, Yahoo would usher in a heavyweight opponent, far more difficult opponents than those small Internet companies in the past!

Right now Yahoo, the most important thing is not how to steal the limelight from ICNC. As soon as this interview comes out, this month, even in the two months before Christmas, it is estimated that no media in America can steal the halo from ICNC. .

   What Coorg has to do is to let Yahoo immediately start chasing this hot spot, report more inside stories about the tobacco industry, and prevent the ICNC website from monopolizing this wave of dividends!

  "Tobacco companies need to face up to the problems caused by tobacco, instead of evading them, so that every pack of cigarettes produced by tobacco companies should add a sentence, tobacco affects health!"

  In front of the camera, Williams, with a solemn face, uttered the last sentence of the interview program to the camera with dignity. When the camera switched and ICNC began to play the first episode of the "Ellen Show", there was applause in the director's room.

  Andy Lake waved his fist vigorously, and the other ICNC TV executives who had been waiting all night couldn't help applauding.

It was the ratings from Comcast and NBC that made ICNC unable to bear it any longer. Before the end of Williams, ICNC's real-time ratings reached 8.9 million, which is already Kang All the channels of the Cast TV network have the highest ratings record in history. You must know that all the users of the Comcast TV network are only tens of millions. One can imagine how many users watched this interview tonight!

   "Congratulations, Song!"

  Brian Roberts also said to Song Yang with a smile on his face that Comcast TV Network will welcome a large wave of new subscribers tomorrow.
