The fall, the secret that's not known

"See piece artifact" Fast seeding fell once let countless otaku grieved unceasingly, but for the entire video industry, perhaps it will be the history of a major event, 260 million dollars of high fines, the industry played a powerful deterrent.

Fast-seeding by virtue of the "pirated" + "erotic" The characteristics of the double wheeled always wandering in the gray area, barbaric growth. If not for this accident, according to founder Wang plan, may soon be able to ring in the capital market, but the short of a beat.

After a sigh of sighs, the speculation about "the fall of the fast sowing" is all over the world, and some people even feel that a conspiracy theory is enough to put on a commercial blockbuster.

Side, "Fast seeding is the enemy of the industry, is good for the industry." "A video industry executive said without hesitation. On the other side, on the internet, a large number of otaku have messages to express their solidarity.

But who wants to kill the fast seeding? How do you clean up a chicken feather?

Conspiracy theory: Tencent Baidu Revenge

Seeing it rise up, seeing it collapse.

Although in principle, the fast seeding is not worthy of sympathy. But from the user's emotional point of view, after all, the rapid broadcast satisfied a large part of the crowd to see the demand, but also won a lot of sympathy points. Therefore, the market is rumored that "food and beverage first" Xiang e sentiment will be a quick broadcast.

But June 30, Xiang e sentiment on this rumor issued a clarification announcement. Another rumor rapid has been bought by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the establishment of Shenzhen Information Security division, leaving employees can continue to stay in the High-tech Park office, under the background of state-owned enterprises, no compilation. But the news has not been confirmed.

Financial Weekly reporter personally rushed to Shenzhen, the original fast-sowing office address-Shenzhen Nanshan District, China Science and Technology Development Institute, Third building, 22 floor A1 room, found that this is not a fast-sowing, but just settled a name for the point of the wonderful Technology Co.

According to one of the fast-growing middle-class reporters, the rapid seeding has been registered with several companies to accommodate different businesses and employees.

Tencent and fast seeding are also rooted in Shenzhen, for the video industry's up-and-comer, Tencent can not pay attention to the fast-sowing, not to mention the fast-seeding or Tencent video's strong competitors. But Tencent seized the opportunity of a report, will soon put the death of the fast sowing. So for the fast-sowing death, the market judge the most reason is Tencent revenge, because before the market rumors Tencent want to buy fast broadcast rejected.

"360 Investment fast, Tencent Investment needs 360 agree, 360 will not agree, Tencent will not mention." An insider told a weekly newspaper reporter.

But in any case, Tencent's move is a way to kill two birds: one is to wipe out the Tencent video competitor Fast sowing, and the second is to hit the enemy Zhou, because Zhou is the fast-sowing angel investors.

But the more accurate news is that last year Youku, Sohu, Tencent Video and music network jointly set up an anti-piracy alliance, and held a huge conference, High-profile denounce Baidu and fast-sowing tort. At that time, anti-piracy alliance focused on the target is Baidu video, Baidu audio-visual and Baidu Shadow stick, of course, the outside interpretation of the actual is to prepare for the listing of the love of extraordinary art pressure, when the fast seeding is only a trivial supporting role.

Baidu Enemy But public opinion pressure, painful arm, close Baidu audio and video, and in December 2013 High-profile announced Baidu audio-visual transformation "to create original authentic content" entertainment platform. At the same time, Baidu Audio and video claims to attach great importance to copyright protection against piracy.

Baidu "straighten out" after the target is still engaged in piracy business of the fast-sowing, so the United Tencent report fast broadcast. "Tencent and Baidu Joint report, just a fuse." The fast-seeding also said before it was a technical haven of the route, I do not own copyright, but to integrate the link to do aggregation distribution mode, now seems to be unworkable. Because the previous Baidu audio-visual also stopped. Fast broadcast to see Baidu Audio and video is prohibited after the hand, by the industry spurned or industry does not allow, only to lead to this situation. "National Securities media industry analyst Zheng told the Financial weekly reporter.

Zheng that the copyright infringement is only the fuse, the larger background is pornography net action. After all, it is through Peer-to-peer mode, the content is difficult to control, involving a large number of pornography, violence, piracy and even outright misappropriation of other people's links. "The main reason is to spread obscenity, violating the laws and regulations of the state, Tencent sued it, not to rise to sentencing, nothing more than a number of civil liability." Zheng stressed.

Zeng Liqing or withdrawal, Zhou silence

If the fast sowing early transformation, I am afraid will not be reduced to this. "Fast broadcast to see Baidu audio and video is banned, not to stop, by some people in the industry or industry does not allow, only to lead to this situation." Zheng told the financial weekly reporter.

April 16, the announcement announced the launch of a comprehensive business model transformation, from the technical transformation of original genuine content, close the Qvod server. At that time the reporter on the transformation call Wang, he said that the transition plan has long been, the future will pay attention to technology, content will be different from others.

But in a few days, the fast seeding was reported by Tencent.

As Wang as startled, I am afraid there is a rapid seeding behind the investors. Soon after the establishment of the early acceptance from Qihoo 360 chairman of Zhou and Tencent, one of the five Tiger Zeng Liqing Angel Investment, the end of 2008 was the soft silver race rich in a round of investment.

Reporter view the national enterprise Credit Information Publicity system display: fast-sowing shareholders in the column are natural persons, respectively, Hemingko (accounted for 21.5%), Yan (5.1%), Zhong Zhi will (accounted for 5.6%), Hu Huan (accounted for 7.85%), Zeng Liqing (accounted for 16.68%), Zhongwei (share 3.34%) , Zhang Kedong (accounted for 8.41%), Wang (share 31.52%).

Among them, Hemingko is the soft silver race rich investment manager, at the same time is the fast broadcast senior Vice president, Hu Huan for Zhou wife. Financial Weekly reporter Call Hemingko, asked about the fast sowing, he said, "I will leave soon after, and they have no relationship." Then, also evade the reporter about "soft silver race has been withdrawn from the fast-sowing investment", quickly hung up the phone.

Although the reporter repeatedly tried to contact Zhou, but as of press deadline, did not receive Zhou any position.

Zhou to the fast-sowing angel investment is only 785,000 yuan, bucket for Zhou, moreover, the investment fast sowing to Zhou 祎 is more important is its strategic significance. and Zeng Liqing investment 1.668 million, according to an insider to reporters: "Indeed heard Zeng Liqing withdrawal, Zeng Liqing is money, withdrawal said no confidence, financial investors pay attention to." ”

I heard Zeng Liqing the first time withdrawal. "The fast-seeding insider told reporters:" Zeng Liqing usually not go to the company, and go to the basic use of the conference room, the fast-broadcast conference room in the vicinity of the company he cast a larger, borrowed to meet. "But from the quick-broadcast business information, Zeng Liqing still holds 16.68% per cent of the fast-seeding."

"Indeed heard Zeng Liqing withdrawal. The business information may not have been updated. "A person in the industry said:" Zeng Liqing is the money, withdrawal said no confidence, financial investment in return. Zhou has relevant strategic interests, equity should still be in, fast-seeding and users. ”

And before someone burst material, Zeng Liqing to Wang already dissatisfied, has repeatedly reminded Wang, should do some profitable exploration, but the technical Wang more advertised as another investor Zhou, has been keen on product development, ignoring profitability.

"Wang people are good, vigilance is not high, easy to be fooled, too young." Zhou must have promised, but Wang as an entrepreneur, the fate of others hand, also blame themselves. Zhou has committed an empirical error, there is a strong relationship, but it is only stronger than the general company, and the relationship between the departments good, before can be done, but the regulatory changes, involving higher levels of hold. Weeks to remain silent, now speak is not appropriate, things have not been, but not to withdraw the shares to explain some of the problems. "This person told the Financial weekly reporter, and revealed that after the incident, Zhou to the rapid broadcasting headquarters to appease some of the core staff.

But Zeng Liqing, one of Tencent's founders, will watch Tencent report fast-sowing? The insider revealed that Zeng Liqing and Ma's relationship is delicate, Zeng Liqing is Tencent five Tiger, the first to leave the founder of Tencent.

and has Li investment projects and Tencent has a competitive relationship.

Moreover, Zeng Liqing and Tencent old enemy Zhou 祎 close, recently, both sides also jointly invested in the colorful life of the successful listing, also counted Chong Xi.
