Internet entrepreneurship sad record: laughing and burning money crying layoffs video site most prodigal

Unconsciously is the February spring season. After the sound of firecrackers, but a few happy several worries, there are sad sanitation workers, but also rejoice in the broom business. In the Internet industry, this kind of sad and happy dual-day scene is actually playing every day. We only saw 360 of the yesterday's heroic million yuan acquisition. com domain name, but do not know their gaming department is carrying out layoffs and contraction. Remember "bubble theory" and "Winter said" last year in the industry rumors, many people scoff at this, they think "bubble is VCs, do not pull entrepreneurs to launch." But in the past year or so, there have been layoffs, layoffs and layoffs. As in the past, foreign companies in the strategic retreat of different, bad things are now the turn of the domestic company head. After the carnival, only lost with the page tour and hand tour of the rise, the game industry seems to have entered a new golden period, IP agency fees at tens of millions of, and the so-called "monthly water" also easily broken tens of millions or even reached billion level. can be small inside but in this piece of heat to hear a few not gregarious voice, they are saying "what big make money, do not see us busy downsizing?" First debut, is the old online game, the giant Sohu swim. After the years of "universal religion", the crisis broke out in 2014, with a quarterly loss of $19.5 million trillion. See their own former layers into this pair of appearance, just out of the depression of Zhang's heart that called an anxious. In order to turn a profit, you have to start from the inside--slashing jobs and then winning Wang Yu. In order to achieve "bloodletting treatment", the job of the layoff is still ongoing. In addition to swimming in such a big club, the middle-class elite game of the day is also difficult. As a result of the survival of the matrix of the growing depression, their status also one day, at one point by the brush list to barely find food and clothing. In the 2014, the game of everyone echoed the pace of layoffs – after a few rounds of downsizing, the original 700-member team now has only half the rest. In such a strategic retreat, their leader also fell down, CEO Hochang suffered from depression, had to retire from the rest. Small inside once had a code farmer friend was filled with joy to accept the offer, in the wave of resignation last year, he also sadly farewell the old club. Some people may say that the front of these two are recognized as unlucky, layoffs are no surprise. But layoffs are not only occurring in companies that are at a loss, but some potential stocks will also choose to lighten their own burdens in order to continue climbing. For example, in the back of the myth of the 4399 inversion, there is another scene in the small. They kept moving forward in 2012-2013, but the net profit was only slightly increased by 20 million; in the first half of 2014, growth was almost stagnant, but the latest announcement was a 320 million per cent net profit for the year and a 4399 per cent increase of 28%. So, is there any moth in it? According to a survey, 4399 in the last year, there have been up to 300 people downsizing, the core team such as the home studio was also angry out. It is reported that 4399 as early as 2013 began to rush to the listing targetThorn, the company management has promised to give the core team equity. But with net profit growth slowing and debt and dividend pressures increasing, 4399 will not only take back employees ' equity but also make a drastic cut. The benefit of this is the decrease in manpower costs, which, according to the existing data, will reduce the expenditure of $80 million by $4399 last year, which is precisely the Yu Sili increase. 4399 now although travel light, but the talent has been lost, want to successfully sprint listing is not easy. In the whole game area, it seems that no matter whether the company profits or not to escape the fate of layoffs. What is the root of the problem? Nothing more than impetuous two words. They come from me in the form of "moon Water", which I preach, on the other hand, by dividends or debt pressures requiring substantial growth. Once development slows down, there is only one way to lay off workers. Laughing and burning money, crying out of the electric dealer, people immediately think of is Taobao, Beijing East, is rich. As the saying goes, "A will work millions bone withered", apart from a few companies to earn pots full of pot, more Yong Chuang electric business people have burned the last dime, the last drop of blood. Do you remember that handle net? they Bingbairushandao after the 2011 IPO failed. First the founder CEO Wu, the handle net was taken over by the Jinsha-dominated investors. Handle nets from now not only unintentional enterprising, even unable to maintain, downsizing contraction is their only choice. In the languish to 2014 years later, they wait for the "Pan-man"-The Tri-cell group. But the three cell also not confused, such a linger greedy website, nature to destructive to big stand. Handle net a new round of layoffs has begun, not only to cut 1/3 of people from the local to Headquarters, but also to clean up the executive layer. Never took the investment, but still adhere to two years, the electric dealer is still a product network is epic. Solemn and stirring on the other side, it is financing failure, burning money and death of the sad reminders of reality. The main "light luxury electric Dealer" is still a product network, in fact, has been walking a difficult road, the front is full of fallen heroes. The commodities net, which has never been invested, was forced to lay off staff once in 2012. 2014 they introduced the British well-known fast-selling clothing brand Topshop tried to last, helpless too late. At the beginning of this year, the commodities network was desperate to lay off a large number of layoffs, and even some office space rental to ease the pressure, leaving them time is not much. The electric business is escape, the traditional sales enterprise electric business Road also is not good to go. Red Star Mei Kai Dragon, Lennon know cut? Their level is much higher than the front two, but still play not to the electricity quotient. 2012 after the launch of the Red Star Mall, the United States Kai Lung quickly hit hundreds of millions of of funds, can be the first half of the turnover of only a poor 40,000. To the eve of the Spring Festival in 2014, in order to match the group listing, mall layoffs. The number of their employees fell from 400 to 100, and management was changed. 2015, they ushered in the fate of the verdict-the general group for the electric business finally gave up, a huge layoff of 80%. Electric business is really not buy a computer and then connected to the Internet to sell things, small inside advise tyrants don't easily involvedFoot。 The loss of electricity due to the burning of money, more or because of the necessity. Because the face of the first-hair advantage obvious industry giants, in the face of the golden Master support wayward opponents, burning money is the only option. But many people are either addicted to this, or never know where the road after the burning of money, how can they undefeated? Prodigal video station Internet burning money who is the strongest, small internal force push video station. If the electric dealer can also sell all kinds of merchandise back to a Ben, that video site is purely prodigal. Although they can get a lot of advertising revenue, but this is the acquisition of bandwidth servers, copyright resources, compared to the large cost of a drop in the bucket. The leader of Youku potatoes, so far only 2013 years of the four seasons to achieve a net profit, other sites can be imagined. 酷6网, who was already half dead, now dares to call himself "China's first video portal". To be fair, they were close to this position, but only close. 2011 Ah, cool 6 The then boss Chen Tianqiao Flag announced the transfer of information, and won the founder of the breach Shanyou, and then tough to lay off 20%. Cool 6 hit of violent layoffs, so that their talent and the people lost. Barely struggling until 2014, Shanda also played enough, low prices have been squeezed dry cool 6 transferred to the ispeak. The new owner is still the first to lay off the job, which increases to 40%. By 2015, the loser's cool 6 share price has bottomed out, and the retreat is probably their best destination. The sad 酷6网 are not alone, in the past year they have 56 nets on the road to accompany. 2008, 561 degrees with Youku, potato pillars, but because of political sensitivity is not enough to shut down for one months. They will be brilliant no longer, married into the net after 56 net wasted 4 years, from "sweets" into the "cow lady." In the plight of everyone himself, 56 nets unexpectedly was kicked open, fortunately, Sohu quickly to 12.9 million U.S. dollars. History is always strikingly similar, the first gift of the 56 net after the new owner is layoffs, founder Zhou Juan and several executives sadly left. The only difference is that the innovation of the Charles Zhang, may bring different changes to the 56 web, but the transformation of the magic is not. In addition to burning money prodigal finally involuntarily, in fact, video site also has clearly made money but the ruin. Well, that's the fast seeding. Although CEO Wang "we focus on technology, do not ask the content", but the server's genuine pirated, pornographic video finally let them usher in the fate of closed closure. Wang himself in prison is self-inflicted, but the dismissed those employees are more helpless, a lot of people even severance payment did not get. Not long ago, not very easy to return to the part of the fast-seeding staff again unlucky, employer home Yun Zhi will they to violence layoffs. is really a fast sowing deep like the sea, from now on luck is passers-by. Due to the two congenital factors of bandwidth and copyright, video sites are burdened with huge financial pressures. Once they can't find a profit, they'll just have to stay in a ghost-hit wall. Every time they hit the head, they start with layoffs.Solve the problem, and then the vicious circle, and eventually trapped themselves to death. The internet as a new industry, immature, fanatical, pompous ingredients too much, many people are intoxicated in the illusory lost rationality, their final ending is to dismiss employees, sadly out. Some people say that the internet business needs to try and wrong, only to try and wrong to come out a road, in order to usher in spring. However, in the small view, if only repeated trial and error even wrong on the wrong, layoffs and layoffs, we will only be closer to the winter, from the spring further.
