报告内容摘要 | The joint time allocation and pricing policy for a Wanghong, with a monopoly advertising agency (he) and with competing advertising agencies. | ||
报告内容： Wanghong is the Chinese word for online celebrities, which creates increasingly huge traffic flow for the video-streaming platforms. A Wanghong (she) may make profits from adverting and/or subscription fee. Since there exists time limit for the length of video or livestreaming, the Wanghong needs to achieve a balance between video contents and advertisements. Meanwhile, the Wanghong makes pricing decisions for advertisements content and subscription fee, to maximize total profit. In this study, we investigate the joint time allocation and pricing policy for a Wanghong, with a monopoly advertising agency (he) and with competing advertising agencies. We consider two types of Wanghong: ``the traditional Wanghong'' and ``the innovative Wanghong''. The traditional Wanghong makes her video content in advance and then searches for advertisements from agencies and the innovative Wanghong simultaneously combines contents and advertisements into her video streaming. For both types of Wanghong, we characterize how their optimal policies and advertising agency's optimal reactions change with the Wanghong-product compatibility, i.e., the effective advertising conversion rate. Moreover, we demonstrate the compatibility's effects on the time allocation, audience number, and Wanghong's and advertising agency's profits. Our findings can help to better manage the business of Wanghong. | |||
