The real reason for the closure of Renren Film and Television?

Mainly due to copyright issues.

Close the announcement. On December 20, 2014, Renren Film and Television was officially closed. The official website of Renren Film and Television declares:

The time of need for us is gone, and now there are better channels to replace us. Thank you for your support over the years, and I hope you can understand that if we continue to do so, we may get into even more trouble. Maybe we will continue to provide translation services for genuine publishers, or maybe it will change to a discussion community to give everyone a place to communicate, so stay tuned.

Renren Film and Television was originally a non-professional subtitle group of foreign film and television programs with the purpose of sharing, communication and learning. The predecessor was founded in 2003 by the Chinese Canadian student Xiao Ghost God YYETS subtitle group, on June 1, 2006 officially established an independent forum, and gradually became one of the well-known film and television sites.

In October 2014, due to suspected piracy, it was investigated by the Motion Picture Association of America, and due to copyright pressure, Renren Film and Television officially announced the closure of the station on November 20 of the same year and no longer provided ** services. In February 2015, Renren Film and Television announced the launch of the transformed American drama community, Renren American Drama.

On June 9, 2015, Renren Film and Television announced on its official Weibo that the original Renren Film and Television was renamed Renren Film and Television**Daquan, and the old domain name has been deactivated and jumped to the new domain name.

The Bureau of Radio, Film and Television seized several switchboard servers of Renren Film and Television. The reason is simple, say they are infringing. I can't figure it out, what kind of rights are you encroaching on?!

Something that obviously doesn't exist! The introduction of foreign film and television resources is free, even if it is infringing, it is the foreign company that infringes! What kind of hand is radio and television meddling?!

It can only be said that Renren Film and Television has a great influence, so big that it will threaten the earnings of other profitable companies, and they have joined forces to capture Renren Film and Television, and Renren Subtitle Group, as a non-profit organization, will definitely not be able to withstand such a joint attack. Now it's okay, everyone film and television has stepped down, they are satisfied, you can no longer find a place in China with such a conscience as Renren Film and Television, and you can directly ** genuine mp4 film and television dramas. It's been like this in these years, and doing good deeds doesn't necessarily have a good reward!!

I estimate that this year's wave of everyone can't bear it, I'm sorry, very sad, everyone film and television is not back! The source of American dramas is so blocked, we will only sink more and more into Chinese English, let's face it, everyone!

Simple. The money was not handed over, and the relationship was not handled very well.

Some netizens questioned: "Shouldn't you give an explanation to members who have paid membership fees?" It's just silent? In this regard, the official said that you can contact the customer service staff on the site.

Previously, some netizens reported that most of the dramas on the Renren** app were taken off the shelves, all the new dramas disappeared, and there were not many old dramas, and they have not yet recovered. AI Finance Club found that some dramas are still available on the Renren app, but the new dramas in 2021 show no relevant content.

Renren** has more than 80 million users, and 85% of these user groups are 16 to 35 years old, and most of them are students and white-collar workers, more than half of whom are overseas students who are young and have a high level of knowledge.

Consumption characteristics of this type of user:

First, there are a large number of people, which is not only in our country but also in the world, which is a huge consumer group second only to children.

2. Most of these users are adult and have a stable income**, so they have strong independence and consumption and purchase potential.

3. This type of user is very fond of social networking, so their consumption is diffusion.

Fourth, pay attention to emotion, have a certain impulsiveness, it is easy to be dominated by feelings, for example, you may be in a bad mood today, and then when you watch **, you find that the advertisement is particularly long, and the mood may be worse and feel that even TV is against you, so you may impulsively spend to open a medal membership.

Netizens who often watch everyone** may find that many of the dramas in this ** have almost disappeared suddenly, and not only have some new dramas suddenly disappeared without a trace, but even some old dramas have become very, very few, which causes everyone to panic.

However, everyone's **official posted a response on Weibo.,They said that this time**abnormal.,It's just because of the technical upgrade.,So what's it.,Caused some of the content to be temporarily taken off the shelves.,If it's a member of Renren** who has a problem,You can contact the customer service staff in the station first.,Then you need to be patient.。

Of course, if it is almost a little inexplicable for people who have just filled their membership or have been charging for a long time, it can be said that this membership is not filled in vain? So what to do with this delay?

However, netizens also expressed a little doubt about the official reason, according to the official response, which means that if it is a member, can you contact customer service for a refund?

And the content that has been removed from the shelves this time also includes many hot new dramas, such as "Fatal Woman", "Top Floor", "With Love" and many others have been directly removed from the shelves, and now it can be said that there are very few censored dramas left.

Netizens found that the customers of this problem are a little panicked, after all, most of the members here may want to watch European and American dramas, and some netizens have found a problem, that is, it has been ** before, and when you open this app, you will find that it is suddenly gone, and it can be said that only a few users are using it normally.

However, everyone also issued a statement, they said that they would deal with the content of some problems, so if some problems are serious or have a particularly bad impact, they will be dealt with strictly.

Renren is a drama chasing platform that everyone prefers, but there is a problem, some netizens feedback, saying that since the afternoon of the 13th, many dramas on Renren** have disappeared, especially new dramas, basically all of them have disappeared, and the old TV series before have also disappeared a lot, as netizens have increased their discussion of this matter, Renren** also responded to the question of a large number of dramas being taken off the shelves, saying that it was caused by technological upgrades, but when will it be able to return to normal, and Renren Film and Television has no clear explanation, Just let the cuties wait a little longer.

1. Everyone's film and television dramas have disappeared.

According to the feedback of netizens, I watched TV well in Renren Film and Television before, but the new TV series and movies have been taken off the shelves, and even some old movies and TV series have been taken off the shelves, which makes the friends very incomprehensible, especially those who recharge their own money, just to watch the drama, but now there is nothing, what is going on, I hope Renren Film and Television will give a reasonable explanation.

Second, Renren Film and Television responded.

In response to these questions from netizens, Renren Film and Television then responded on the official social ** platform, saying that it was because of the technical upgrade that some content was taken off the shelves, but I hope that the friends can wait patiently, if there is any problem, you can contact the official customer staff, or you can call the customer service directly, I hope the friends will wait patiently.

Third, netizens didn't buy it.

But in response to this reply from Renren.com, netizens didn't buy it, although Renren Film and Television said that this was a technical upgrade, but netizens said that this is just a pretense, because almost all the ** have been taken off the shelves, members can contact to refund the membership fee, if it is a technical upgrade, these ** can still be seen in the later stage, so why do you still let contact customer service, isn't it just for refund. As for the real reason for the removal of Renren Film and Television, there is no accurate reply yet.

It will be restored soon, this is only caused by the technical upgrade, and the bug will be fixed soon.

The specific time has not been determined, and the official has responded, and it is also seizing the time to investigate, so it will definitely be dealt with as soon as possible.

I hope everyone will come back to life soon.

If you are a fan of American dramas or English, you may be no stranger to Renren Film and Television Subtitle Group (hereinafter referred to as "Renren Film and Television"). Thirteen years ago, Renren Film and Television, an online organization led by international students "Little Ghosts and Gods" to provide Chinese subtitles for American dramas, is now a well-known folk film and television subtitle translation group in China.

Relying on the mature subtitle translation structure, a series of commercial behaviors of Renren Film and Television have caused criticism in the circle. In the case of opaque financial information, Renren Film and Television has repeatedly expressed that the cost is tight, which is also difficult to understand. All this exposes the dilemma of the private subtitle group that originally stood as a "non-commercial non-profit" in business transformation.

Profit and loss disputes. As early as June 23 this year, the QQ signature of Chen Hai, a member of Renren Film and Television, showed, "Due to the renewal of the old advertiser's contract, this year's patch title is sold out (sold out)." The reporter opened the official website of Renren Film and Television, and it can be seen that there are six or seven columns of advertisements from the top to the end of the page, and there is no shortage of entrances for film and television post-production, **software, tourism**, etc.

Bandwidth and maintaining the best operation objectively require cost support, but the broader controversy is that Renren Film and Television has repeatedly exposed itself to financial constraints without disclosing specific revenues, which makes its operation status confusing. Before the self-revealed R&D client squandered the reserve funds, in 2016, before its related product "Renren Dictionary" was launched, it publicly raised "R&D expenses", and finally ended crowdfunding with more than 800,000 yuan.

Transformation dilemma. At the same time, Renren Film and Television is also facing copyright problems, and transformation is imperative.

Renren Film and Television started as a non-professional subtitle group for foreign film and television programs with the purpose of sharing, communication and learning.

The predecessor was founded in 2003 by the Canadian call for a wide Chinese international student Xiaoqi God, YYETS subtitle group, on June 1, 2006, the official establishment of an independent forum, in 2007 changed its name to Renren Film and Television, the purpose is "sharing, learning, progress", and gradually become one of the well-known film and television sites.

Development history: Founded in 2004, Renren Subtitle Group (YYETS Subtitle Group) is a non-profit network translation enthusiast organization, specializing in translating overseas film and television subtitles, and publishing them for free through the Internet.

On June 1, 2006, Renren Subtitle Group opened its forum, and in 2007, it was renamed Renren Film and Television, with the purpose of "sharing, learning, and progress". There are more than 1,000 members in the Renren subtitle group and more than 900,000 registered members of the forum.

In 2009, Renren Film and Television was investigated for pirated resources, and at that time, 111 audio-visual program services**, including the top few BTs in China, such as "Eden", "BT China Alliance" and "Yoyo Bird", were shut down for rectification. Renren Film and Television announced its transformation at that time, giving up the **** chain Zheng, and only providing subtitle services.
