It's hard to stop TikTok.Imagine that when you open a movie with the vertical screen, the face of the hero can be full of fear or joy.When you convert it to the horizontal screen, you can see the layers of the screen scenes.The switching between the vertical screen and the horizontal screen is "silky smooth".This is not science fiction, this is Quibi.Before Quibi's horizontal and vertical screen switching function was officially launched, Quibi had worn countless auras: founder Kazenberg was a gold medal producer in Hollywood; The product has not been released and has raised 1.75 billion dollars.The investors include Disney, Warner, Ali and other giants.To win the giant rose branch, Quibi wins the content.As a short video app, Quibi takes longer than TikTok for each video, averaging 10 minutes; Quibi is also more professional than YouTube, focusing on PGC content.At present, Quibi mainly promotes "chapter movies", dividing 120 minute feature films into 10 minute episodes for broadcast, and also includes video news, short variety shows and other content.Its professionalism is reflected in the production team with a large number of famous brands, including actress Jenny Flopez and director Steven Spielberg.With all the stars gathered, the cost will not be reduced.The production cost of Quibi is 120000 dollars per minute.It is not difficult to see that Quibi is like a "short video Netflix", more like a "boutique TikTok".The content it produces has long-term value, can bring high stickiness users to the platform, and has nothing to do with TikTok in road selection.At the same time, against the background that the content track is going to be vertical and the short video content tends to be homogeneous, the video news and high-quality short video featured by Quibi represent a new growth direction.Especially when 5G is about to be commercialized on a large scale, Quibi is expected to compete with TikTok.The ideal is full, and the reality is skinny.On the day of launch, Quibi was on the App
