Chapter 1193 My mother’s complaints
Successfully came to the movie viewing area.
The design of Jiahua Cinema can already see the shadows of the theater design ten years later, beautiful light strips, specially designed stickers and soft bags, large dolls placed, etc. "There are many people." Xu Liang was a little surprised when he looked at the dense abortion in the waiting area.
"The above statistics show that the number of moviegoers nationwide this year is about 130 million, more than half of the 89 million last year. First-tier cities have even doubled.
Wait a few years later, you can come to the theater again. There will be more people to see." Fan Xiaopang smiled with his arm in his arms.
"Boss, this is a good ticket."
Xu Liang took two from her hand, "Give them a point."
" Yes."
He helped Fan Xiaopang find an empty seat and sat down.
"How many days have it been released under "Hulaoguan"?"
"It's been a week, and the box office has exceeded 128 million Chinese coins."
"It seems to be better than the top One of them performed better."
Fan Xiaopang also smiled and nodded.
After the release of "Hulaoguan" last year, the box office in a week was only less than 90 million. "The company estimates internally that if the release is extended, the domestic box office will exceed 300 million Huaxia coins."
Xu Liang: "Have you discussed the overseas distribution channel?"
< "I've talked about it. Bandai in Japan is responsible for the issuance, Global in the United States has prepared 800 screens for us, and Vivendi in Europe has prepared 560 screens for us.
Overall, it is better than the first One part must have good conditions.
As expected, the box office under "Hulaoguan" can exceed 1 billion Huaxia coins. "
The Three Kingdoms theme is very popular in Japan.
The upper part has won 430 million Chinese currency box office, and the box office in all regions around the world has exceeded 870 million Chinese currency.< br>
Although it is far from being compared with "Kung Fu Panda" and "Black Cat Sheriff [Zootopia]", it is also a big breakthrough.
The huge increase in Jiahua Entertainment The Group has an influence in the global film industry, especially in the domestic market.
"Have you made the shooting plan for next year?" Xu Liang asked.
"It's basically confirmed.
In terms of animation, "Kung Fu Panda 2" is released.
In addition, we are also planning to start producing the 'Fengshen Universe' you mentioned before. .
The first part "Jiang Ziya".
Then is the adaptation of the old IP of Shanghai Film Studio.
This year we plan to produce "Afanti's Story". "
Xu Liang nodded and agreed with the development plan of Jiahua Animation Department.
The new IP needs to be developed, but the classic IP accumulated by Shanghai Film and Television in the past half century cannot be like this. Buried.
Give them new life with new technologies and a new storyline, and bring more revenue to the company.
And as the 1970s and 1980s grow up, just killing memories can make them pay for a movie ticket.
"Shanghai Film Mi's IP is very precious. If there is no suitable script, I would rather put it on and not develop it." Xu Liang reminded. "Don't worry, I will stare at it myself."
Now the 'animation department' is Jiahua's money-making weapon.
One "Kung Fu Panda" and the other "Black Cat Sheriff/Zootopia" have a combined box office of more than $1.5 billion.
And also contributed two classic IPs to Jiahua that can be continuously explored.
Fan Xiaopang is naturally very concerned about it.
"Where is adult video?"
"We have obtained all copyrights for "Ghost Blows Out the Light" and plan to promote TV series and movies simultaneously.
But the TV series may not be able to pass the review. "
"Ghost Blows Out the Light" can easily fall into the situation of promoting feudal superstition. Even later, it was mainly broadcast online, and it has never been on the stars. It has also deleted a large number of exciting plots, making A TV series becomes ugly. "Forget it, the movie is fine, the key is the director. "Xu Liang said.
"We are still choosing directors. The key is that there are very few directors in China who are good at this type of director. "
Although Xu Liang has seen many such movies, he really doesn't remember several directors except for the popular movies that often have a box office of billions later.
I simply ignored it, even if I lost money, I couldn't pay a few.
"The director is serious, but he must not choose the director who has too many ideas and changes the script at any time."
"Yes."
"There are other things to do." "
"The story summary of "Lost in the World" you gave me last time has been improved by the screenwriter department. I will give it to you when I go back tonight. If you see, we plan to start filming .”
Since "Kung Fu Panda" became popular, Fan Xiaopang has wanted to get some scripts from him from time to time.
I am willing to refuse, but this woman can often accurately grasp his weaknesses.
Not only actively unlock various postures, but also use strange costumes.
Add with a beautiful face and a slim and plump figure.
Every time Xu Liang would agree to her in the gentle place.
"Lost in the Road" is one of them, and "The Tuner" released this year.
"...Ning Hao has written a script "Crazy Racing" and plans to shoot it next year.
That's basically it."
Xu Liang nodded, He still remembers the memes in "Crazy Racing".
"Ghost Blows Out the Light", "Lost in the Road", and "Crazy Racing", three movies a year are enough with the box office of the Chinese film market.
"Where is the TV series?" Xu Liang continued.
"The Soldier Assault you strongly requested has been decided.
We have produced ourselves include "Scarlet Heart", "Lonely Empty Court Spring Night" and "Magic Mobile Phone" 》.
The Qilutai has agreed that we participated in the production of "Chuangguandong", invested 15 million yuan, obtained half of the revenue of the TV series, and online copyright.
CCTV rejected us Participate in the production of "The Legend of Bruce Lee." "
Xu Liang nodded. Jiahua had already tasted the sweetness of adapting online novels in his collaboration with Fantasy Sword.
This year, I have two movies in a row.
Xu Liang: "How are you talking to Hou Hongliang and the others?"
"The talks have been almost done. We invested 30 million Chinese coins to jointly establish the 'Dongyang Noon Sunshine' company with them. .
We hold 49% of the shares as the major shareholder.
Hou Hongliang, Kong Sheng, Li Xue and Sun Molong joined forces to hold 51% of the shares.
We are responsible for the main investment in the company's film and television dramas, but we cannot interfere with creation and casting.
The income from film and television dramas shall be divided according to the investment ratio of both parties.
Half of the company's surplus is used for dividends every year..."
Xu Liang finished listening to the conditions and thought for a while, "I signed the contract quickly. With them, Jiahua's TV series There is no need to worry about business in the future. ”
The noon sunshine is definitely the golden signboard of Chinese TV series.
"Langya Bang", "The Pretender", "He is here, please close your eyes", "Ode to Joy", "If the Snail has Love", "Surgery Storm", "Langya Bang: The Wind Rises in Changlin", "Big River" "I know if you know if you know, you should be green, fat, red and thin", "Everything is good", "I am Yu Huanshui", "Mountains and Seas", "Children of Qiao Family", "The Beginning", "Welcome", "County Party Courtyard", "Little Alley Family", etc. , there are too many classics.
If the company's main creators have also created "Crossing the Guandong", "Life and Death Line", "The Iron Era", "Wenzhou Family", "Fighting Changsha", etc., they are simply half of the Chinese TV drama industry.
Fan Xiaopang nodded. After being in the film and television industry for so many years, she also knew the abilities of these people.
"Where is the happy twist?"
"The contract has been signed, and 70 million Huaxia Coin has been acquired in full. However, according to your instructions, I will take out 20% of the equity and establish an option pool." Fan Xiaopang said.
If the noon sunshine accounts for half of the Chinese TV series, then "Happy Twist" accounts for half of the Chinese comedy movies.
Shen Teng once became another generation of comedy masters after Stephen Chow, and "Han Tengliang" became the standard for whether a movie can sell well at the box office.
It's a pity that this guy didn't think about making movies and started playing variety shows...
" With these two subsidiaries, Jiahua is more stable in film and television dramas." Xu Liangyu was happy. .
"Are you so optimistic about 'Happy Twist'?"
The sunshine pearls and jades in front of the noon are in front of her, and she can understand that she is optimistic about it.
But although Happy Twist is doing well in the drama industry, he has made no achievements in the film and television field.
"When did I ever missed it?"
When did I miss it?"
When he heard that, Fan Xiaopang stopped asking. This man really didn't miss it.
Li Jinling came over and reminded, "Mr. Xu, the movie will start in ten minutes."
Xu Liang nodded and stood up with his big belly Fan Xiaopang, "Let's go, go home after watching the movie .”
"Yeah."
The two walked into the cinema.
"Hulaoguan" is not a giant screen movie, but Lao Mouzi is indeed very good at making blockbusters.
The picture is grand and grand, and the war scenes are very historical.
Jiahua spent enough money, and the scenes produced were more refined than "Hero".
Most castings can fit the roles. Diao Chan played by Liu Qianqian has no choice but to choose from in terms of appearance and temperament.
After watching the two and a half hours of movie, the outside was already covered by night.
I found a restaurant, had some dinner, and on the way home.
"There will be a large-scale merger and acquisition next year. You are prepared."
"Merger and acquisition?"
Fan Xiaopang was delighted.
In recent years, Jiahua Group has grown rapidly through repeated mergers and acquisitions, becoming the largest comprehensive film and television group in China.
And with the current scale of China, she is looking forward to being called a larger-scale merger and acquisition by her own men.
"What merger and acquisition? Which company?" "It's too early to say it now. I'll tell you when the opportunity is right." Xu Liang smiled.
He plans to let Facebook acquire EDA Records, and then let Jiahua acquire EDA's Greater China business.
The ultimate goal is to make Jiahua producers dominate Asia, EMI and Universal team up to dominate Europe and the United States, and to add Japan's Aihui Music and South Korea's SM, Xu's world's number one music market overlord.
However, if you want to acquire Baidai, monopoly is an unbeatable obstacle.
Although Facebook's equity is scattered and Xu Liang's equity is not much, anyone who understands it knows what's going on.
Especially his old opponents are definitely not willing to be lonely.
It is still a question whether it can be successfully acquired in the end.
Of course, Warner Music is also a good option.
Finally, the specific acquisition depends on which one is more suitable.
——
Time flies very quickly, and New Year's Day is coming in the blink of an eye. Xu Yongpei and Wang Lingxiang, who were traveling between the daughter-in-law, also returned from Singapore.
Chinese people, especially in the northern tradition, eat dumplings on their days.
Wang Lingxiang arranged to make dumpling stuffing early in the morning.
In order to take care of the taste of a whole family, I made three flavors: leek, celery and cabbage.
With the servants, they made at least a thousand dumplings in one morning.
Most of them were given to bodyguards and servants at home.
Eat the rest of my family.
At noon, Xu Yongpei and Wang Lingxiang sat in the main seat.
Xu Liang sat on the left, Jiang Xiaoyang, Fan Xiaopang, Tong Yaya and Tang Yan each took their children to sit on both sides of the table.
The few children chattered, making the whole restaurant noisy, but it was also full of lifestyle.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
Wang Lingxiang saw it in her eyes, and a hint of melancholy flashed in her eyes with joy.
He subconsciously looked at his husband, and the other party also happened to see him.
As soon as the couple looked at each other, they knew what the other person was thinking.
After lunch, Wang Lingxiang called her son to the study.
"Mom, just say anything."
"Son, do you know how many children you have now?"
"Son, do you know how many children you have?"
"Mom, look at what you said. How can my own child not know?" Xu Liang calculated with his fingers.
Eight years after he was reborn, he gave birth to 27 children, including 20 boys and 7 girls.
There are 11 pregnant people who have not been born yet, 7 boys and 4 girls.
When the end of next year, he will have 38 children.
Xu Liang was shocked by this calculation.
"Are there already?"
Wang Lingxiang rolled her eyes, "What do you think? Your dad and I were always worried that you wouldn't have children, and we were in our twenties and several women. There is no child either.
Now, you open the gate, like a hen laying eggs, and you are coming one by one.
After five years, you have been born twenty or so Yes, if there are five years, it will at least double.
If there are another twenty years, it will definitely exceed a hundred.
If you find a few more women, it will probably be two hundred.
You can even be born without King Wen of Zhou. "
"Haha, mom, you used to say that there are many children, many grandchildren, and many longevity. How could you change your mind? "
"The old saying goes, but who would have thought you would have so many children! In recent years, my father and I are like the migrating geese, flying everywhere around the world.
If you are not tired, we are all tired.
Son, forty grandchildren are enough, so take a break.
No matter how many, your dad and I can't stand it. "
Looking at my mother's heartfelt look, Xu Liang smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, I will definitely have fewer children in the future, and I will only win a hundred. ”
In his opinion, I was a little too worried.
Jiang Xiaoyang, Qiao Yuhui, and An Kaiyue followed him early, and now he is thirty years old.
The oldest Jiang Xiaoyang is already 31 years old.
After 35 years old, she will be an elderly mother. Even if they are willing, Xu Liang is not ready to let them have another child.
So, they can get pregnant twice at most.
It is definitely no problem to imitate the "Hundred Sons of King Wen", but no matter how much you have, you won't be much more.
After comforting my mother who had been tired for a year, Xu Liang looked at the time and left the house.
——
Future Science City was originally the 'Hongmeng Headquarters Project'.
The Hongmeng headquarters project was expanded from the famous unfinished project "World Style Park" in Sijiucheng.
This super project covering an area of 680 acres was originally planned to build a Greek palace, Thai style pagoda, as well as traditional Chinese pavilions, Jiangnan-style courtyards near the water, European castles, Japanese and Japanese There are many architectural styles such as small buildings, similar to the main park like Pengcheng's 'Window of the World'.
But after the finale was unfinished for some reasons.
It was valued by Xu Liang, and the surrounding land area was built in a total of more than 3,000 acres, a huge new scientific and technological landmark in Beijing - "Future Science City".
When the plan was made, eighteen high-complete buildings in the "World Style Park" were preserved and re-planned.
Different names were given according to different design styles.
Because the greening rate generally exceeds 50%, it is particularly precious in the surrounding steel jungle, the eighteen independent buildings were welcomed by many wealthy financial institutions once rented out.
For example, Sequoia rented the "Windsor Castle" built in a model for European castles.
SoftBank rented a "hot spring villa" built in a Japanese villa.
Xu Liang himself left behind the 'Jinyuan' built in imitation of the Humble Administrator's Garden.
Jinyuan is not as big as Humble Administrator's Garden, covering an area of about ten acres and possesses the unique style of Jiangnan gardens.
The pavilions, towers, springs, pools, water pavilions, all are available.
Xu Liang also regards this place as his own place to work and receive guests.
Two distinguished guests came today.
"Mr. Xu, the scenery of your residence is really good! Lakes, valleys, forest parks, all included."
Xu Liang smiled, "If Dr. Wang likes it, please do you like it." If there is a quiet environment here, when you join Hongmeng, the company will give you a set."
Wang Jian waved his hand quickly, "It's not possible to use it, it's not possible to use it."
Soon he reacted and smiled bitterly, "Mr. Xu, let me consider it again."
"Are you still considering it? MSN is now getting worse and worse, and Gates goes to this small island for vacation every day. No concern for the business in China.
Now that Microsoft is Ballmer's turn to take power, the old man is not like Gates, he is a petty person.
Microsoft Research Institute of Asia still wants to continue the past The loose R&D environment is difficult.
It may even be cut off existing R&D projects and funds."
Looking at Xu Liang who commented on Gates and Ballmer, Wang Jian and Shen Xiangyang beside him could only smile lightly.
The two of them are the dean of Microsoft Research Institute and the other is the executive vice president.
Xu Liang casually commented on the company's boss and the second boss in front of their two subordinates, asking them to respond easily. "And I believe you have noticed it too.
Microsoft is old now, and the dusk energy on his body is getting heavier and heavier."
Xu Liang sighed, and said with regret: "Gates no longer asks about Microsoft's specific work and has stepped down to the second line. Now he has devoted most of his energy to Gates." ·Melinda Foundation and Family Office Waterfall Investment.
In recent years, Gates has been continuously reducing his holdings in Microsoft stocks and investing money in foundations and waterfall investments.
I say These do not mean to belittle your boss.
But he is now old and has been ranked as the richest man in the world for many years. No one can shake it, as if all work is no longer challenging for him.
He has been fighting in the mall for thirty years, and it is time to rest, enjoy life well, and consider how the family wealth is passed down in an orderly manner. "
Seeing that two technical men have not responded, Xu Liang immediately changed his strategy and stopped talking about Gates. He changed the topic:
"I'll talk about Hongmeng's cloud computing and Artificial Intelligence Project.
As early as three or four years ago, Hongmeng began to develop cloud computing and big data. If I remember correctly, we should be the first domestic company to invest in cloud computing and big data on a large scale, and invest huge amounts of money. A private enterprise developed. ”
When it comes to cloud computing, the taciturn Wang Jian suddenly became excited. "Mr. Xu, even now, the outside world is questioning whether cloud computing can be truly done.
If you invest huge amounts of money, aren't you worried that it will be wasted in the end?"
Xu Liang smiled and said, "The budding of cloud computing theory - public computing services, was first proposed by Professor John McCarthy, the Turing Award winner and the father of artificial intelligence, in 1961.
< br>He said at the time: If the computers I envisioned that support multiple people to use simultaneously could come true, then computing might one day be organized into public services like a telephone...it would be the foundation of a new and important industry. >
His theory draws on the traditional power plant model.
Simply put, it is to regard computing resources as an energy resource like electricity. Users can use computing resources anytime, anywhere, just like inserting a light bulb into a socket, and pay according to the amount of use.
More than 40 years have passed, and his theory has actually been verified. "
Seeing the two of them with some confusion, Xu Liang did not explain, but asked, "I wonder if you have ever heard of Salesforce? "
Shen Xiangyang nodded immediately, "I have heard that the founder jumped from Oracle to start a business. The company was listed on the New York Stock Exchange a few years ago. It has a strong development momentum and its business model is also very innovative. force. ”
Xu Liang smiled and said, "Yes, Salesforce translated as Software Marketing Force, referred to as Soft Camp, is also called Software Terminator in the industry.
Interestingly, they do not sell software services in the traditional way. Instead, the software is perfectly integrated with the Internet and provides on-demand customized software services.
Users only need to pay similar rents per month to freely use various services on the website, which involve customers All aspects of relationship management, from ordinary contact management to product catalogs, order management, opportunity management, sales management, etc., are all included.
They now have more than 1 million subscribers, Large companies such as Postal and Cisco have become their customers, and the technology behind this is a SaaS platform.
The concept of cloud computing is very broad, and SaaS is also a model for selling public computing service resources. The camp is at the forefront of the world in the exploration of cloud computing. ”
Wang Jian nodded slightly and thought deeply, "This is also a kind of cloud computing, but they do not involve development platforms, virtual machines or storage resources, and their exploration and application of cloud computing are still very simple."
" Yes, there is no clear framework structure division for cloud computing. In my understanding, it can actually be divided into three layers: SaaS, PaaS, IaaS..."
Xu Liang briefly introduced himself to the three. The division of layer cloud computing architecture, and then said: "The cloud computing we want to do naturally covers three layers and builds a one-stop cloud service platform.
Among them, laaS is undoubtedly the one with the most difficult and investment. Layer.
But once it is done, domestic websites of all sizes no longer need to purchase foreign servers, and all our cloud services will be leased.
This can not only lower the threshold for entrepreneurship, but also help domestic peers.
For example, Ah Li, I heard that the server is almost impossible to afford. If they rent our cloud services, they can save some money to enter the overseas market and enter the United States, the base camp of Amazon and Yibei. Domestic products are sold to the United States and driving the development of domestic small and medium-sized enterprises, which is of great merit. "
Wang Jian said with a smile: "This is true. I heard that Ali has more and more e-commerce users, and the server spending is very stressful. He buys large quantities of Oracle and IBM servers every year. "
Xu Liang nodded with a smile and continued: "IaaS needs to build a data center and purchase a large amount of hardware equipment, which can be classified as a heavy asset operation model.
Whether a cloud computing company can make a profit and how far it can go in the future depends on how prosperous the PaaS layer and SaaS layer ecology above the laaS layer are.
For example, Microsoft may not be very good at cloud computing in the early stage, but in the later stage, relying on its huge customer base, by grafting its own Windows, Office, SQLServer and other software with cloud services, its potential will be completely released. "
Shen Xiangyang pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "This is, cloud computing is essentially a rental of server resources, selling computing power and storage.
The leasing model has a typical scale effect, that is, the more customers, the lower the marginal cost. "
Xu Liang smiled and said, "So, this is also a winner-takes-all track. Little players cannot play laas, they can only play PaaS and SaaS.
Our cloud computing service platform has been aimed at the global market since its establishment.
Although Microsoft is powerful, Hongmeng is not bad either.
And we have the first-mover advantage.
Pangu is now a world-leading cloud computing service provider.
The only thing that can compare with us is Amazon's AWS.
Although this is a huge achievement, it is not enough in my opinion.
Microsoft, Google, Western Digital, etc., European and American technology companies are investing in cloud computing.
If we slacken, they will catch up immediately.
So, we need more talents and more funds to invest in the research and development of cloud computing and build more data centers.
I believe that as long as we do it to the extreme, relying on the mind and ability of Chinese people, the peak crown of global cloud computing in the future will definitely belong to us! ”
