"I have a question for everyone: have you received offers from ByteDance and Tencent? Which of these two companies is better?"
I am a blogger on a certain platform. After purchasing 'Future' from the official website of Kechuang Biotechnology, I created some content around 'Future'.
Since starting to post content about the virtual world, both the speed of gaining followers and the stickiness of followers have significantly improved.
ByteDance and Tencent have both announced through official channels in the past two days that they have obtained the live streaming authorization from Kechuang Bio.
Therefore, they all contacted me through various channels, expressing their desire to sign a contract with me so that I could become a full-time virtual streamer on their platforms.
I'd like to ask for everyone's opinions, and what the reputations of ByteDance and Tencent are like.
The reputation here does not refer to the reputation among users, but rather from the perspective of the work itself, and from the perspective of the entirely new industry of virtual world live streaming.
I hope you can give me some advice. I worked briefly after graduating from university, and since then I have been making a living by doing self-media.
We haven't signed any strongly binding contracts.
Another point to clarify is that I am still very interested in becoming a full-time streamer in the virtual world.
Firstly, when I communicated with these two major companies, they clearly stated that the right to stream in the virtual world will not be open to individuals for at least five years. Only they will have this feature.
Secondly, I've been involved in self-media for a long time, and have also done live streams on and off. I have a strong desire to share and express myself.
In the future, after the release, those who hope to take advantage of this opportunity to start a business will not only be those who start businesses in the virtual world, nor will they be limited to the form of internet cafes.
Some startups with a keen sense of opportunity created a forum specifically for the virtual world.
Users who post need to be approved before they can post.
Ordinary users can only reply or watch.
Since its launch, the forum has gained popularity rapidly by attracting bloggers who are willing to share their experiences in the virtual world.
There's a subtle trend of them surpassing their original main site, NGA.
"My advice is that the content creators are doing quite well now, and there's no need to sign with Tencent or ByteDance and get exploited by them."
Neither of these companies are easy to deal with.
If you become a virtual world streamer, you'll definitely sign a very binding contract, and most of them are traps.
"Thanks for the advice, brother. The main problem is that my previous income from self-media was barely enough to support myself. I don't see any hope of buying a house, a car, or getting married through self-media in the short term."
Then, after catching the wave of the virtual world, my income increased significantly.
However, I am well aware that this period of opportunity is limited.
As the number of users in the virtual world increases, so will the number of people wanting to create their own media platforms to get a piece of the pie.
At the same time, the more users you have, the less attractive your content will become.
Based on my understanding of the production capacity of science and technology innovation biotechnology, the period of benefit will last for a maximum of two years.
Moreover, this period of high returns is gradually declining.
Both Tencent and ByteDance offered me a very high base salary with no sales targets and a relatively high commission on gifts.
I'm quite interested in the compensation package.
Not to mention the opportunity to stream live to a global audience, with ByteDance and Tencent's channels helping to drive traffic; I'd probably sign with them.
"I also think it's like a windfall. The blogger mentioned in their profile that they gained more attention and traffic by riding this wave of popularity."
Previously, this blogger might have only had tens of thousands of followers at most, and had never made a breakthrough.
The reason why Tencent and ByteDance chose you is because they didn't buy the 'future' of more famous or more suitable streamers.
Tencent and ByteDance have very limited options, and the blogger's background and experience just happened to appear on the candidate list.
My advice is to go ahead and clearly define the rights, responsibilities, and benefits in the contract.
Even after big companies have cleaned up their image and gone public, they still have some principles when it comes to doing things.
As long as you sign directly with a major company, rather than with a talent agency, and there's a talent agency acting as a buffer, you shouldn't end up in a bad situation.
Large companies in China all have labor dispatch companies, not just internet companies.
Large financial institutions, such as banks and insurance companies, also exist.
Many low-level positions are filled by labor dispatch companies, who then hire people to work for large factories.
The advantage of this is that large companies can lay off employees without any burden or loss.
Labor arbitration and similar methods simply cannot reach the large companies themselves.
The phenomenon of unequal pay for equal work is prevalent in outsourcing.
Previously, this was done in low-end positions, but in recent years, due to the convenience of labor dispatch, many mid-level positions have also adopted this practice.
In some banks, this is how middle-level managers work. Some banks have middle-level managers who have contracts with labor dispatch companies.
"As a virtual world worker who has signed a contract with Tencent, I'm here to speak out!"
If it's about the money, big companies do offer more. As a complete newbie with no experience, the asking price is around 700,000.
If I hadn't caught the wave of the virtual world, I feel like I would never have earned this salary in my entire life.
Of course, not all prices are this high; the price set by Tencent is closely related to your personal qualities.
They have high requirements for education, experience, IQ, and EQ.
Simply having a 'future' isn't enough to get this much.
Then there's the fact that the work is definitely not easy; describing it as tiring is not an exaggeration at all.
