Chapter 173: Driving the tiger to swallow the wolf
Behind the intricate relationships in the entertainment industry, there is only two words: profit.
Benefits.
As long as the interests are big enough, anything can happen.
Capital is impersonal.
Capital only sees naked interests.
Today you fight to the death, but tomorrow you may make peace because of interests.
An enemy is an enemy, a friend is a friend, and interests are interests.
Zhang Chaoyang hated Lao Gu to his core and wished that Youku would be finished soon, but at the last moment he shook hands with Lao Gu and made peace.
It is because of the temptation of the full copyright of the Diaosi series and the temptation of the first online drama that Zhang Chaoyang temporarily put aside his personal grudges.
Penguin quits, Mango wants to join in the running brothers.
Now only Baidu and Huayi are left.
Baidu is the biggest loser in this Baidu war.
Baidu bought Tudou’s shares for hundreds of millions.
In addition, Baidu stock has been falling...
No one can tell how much Baidu has lost.
Li Yanhong has given up on Qiyi.com and focuses all his energy on consolidating search hegemony.
Qiyi.com is now a paper tiger.
Although Gong Yu is not the kind of person who insists on revenge, he cannot bear the blame for the huge loss this time.
As the founder of Qiyi.com, he cannot admit that he is wrong, so he must find someone to take the blame.
In the final analysis, Baidu lost so miserably this time because it kicked Li Mingyang out.
The ones who kicked Li Mingyang out at that time were Baidu, Mango and Huayi.
Li Yanhong made the final decision, but he could never be wrong.
Mango, as long as Gong Yu wants to continue working in the video industry, he will not dare to offend Mango.
Huayi, this time it was really fat, the MVP of the losing team, after this battle, he reconciled with Wang Jinhua openly.
fear! Even scarier than the previous life!
If Huayi is not pulled down at this time.
The troubles will be endless...
As for peace, it is pure nonsense.
The situation was not good. The king admitted his mistake and apologized quickly, and he was very sincere.
But when they calm down, they will definitely take revenge.
A rival to Goryeo!
Li Mingyang is not Yang Guang. He can bulldoze the situation in one wave, but he will never do it in the second wave.
At one go, you are as angry as a tiger!
Li Mingyang picked up the mobile phone on the table and called Gong Yu.
He wants to wake up this future giant of domestic entertainment, an old fox who doesn't know what to do now.
……
Yanbei.
Gong Yu hung up the phone and looked at the wine glass on the coffee table, speechless for a long time.
He did not expect that Li Mingyang would call him at this time and give him directions.
Penguin and them are not on the same front. Penguin is just taking this opportunity to test the reaction from above.
Baidu suffered huge losses.
The mango limit is exchanged for one, and the loss is also huge.
Only Huayi not only had no losses, but also made huge profits.
Gong Yu wanted to engage in Huayi and tried to divert the trouble to the east.
However, Ali is Huayi's major shareholder and he is undecided.
But Li Mingyang’s call made him make up his mind.
Instead of worrying about whether Ali will end up or not, the most important thing is to regain Director Li's trust.
If it weren’t for the fact that there was no one available, many people would not want to get involved in the muddy waters of the video industry... He would have been removed long ago.
Although he has not been dismissed now, Li Yanhong no longer has confidence in him. If he can’t get money, how can he expect to make long videos.
"This guy is really a business wizard. What kind of director can he be..." Gong Yu carefully tasted Li Mingyang's words, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible it became.
What video websites need most is high-quality TV series.
Huayi is weak in the field of TV dramas.
As for celebrities, Qiyi.com is a video platform, not a film and television company, so it really doesn’t matter much.
Size, the most important thing is size!
Let’s build up the volume first, and then talk about other things.
So after thinking for a while, he first called Boss Zhao.
In addition to regret, it is repentance. He lowered his body and chatted for a long time. Boss Zhao finally stopped talking about withdrawing shares.
After Huace was stabilized, Gong Yu called other film and television company bosses who specialized in TV series.
Finally, I called the copyright broker Lao Jia to discuss the possibility of long-term cooperation.
Cooperation cannot be achieved by phone calls.
But as long as you don’t refuse clearly, there can be talks.
As long as Director Li trusts him again, nothing will be a problem.
After the phone call, Gong Yu drove back to the company and informed the management that the Spring Festival holiday was cancelled, and everyone must return to work tomorrow. Gong Yu wants to split Tudou’s film and television rights to Qiyi.com to increase the size of Qiyi.com.
After hearing Gong Yu's plan, Li Yanhong said that I would discuss it in person and hung up the phone.
The film and television rights that Tudou bought from LeTV were paid for by Penguin and Baidu. Once the two companies join forces, they can divest those film and television rights in minutes.
With Li Yanhong’s support, Gong Yu directly targeted Huayi.
During the cooperation, Huayi filed a lawsuit on the grounds that it had made financial fraud and infringed upon the interests of other partners!
……
News that Baidu and Huayi were at odds and going to court spread like wildfire.
That evening, the first day of the Lunar New Year was not yet over. Media from all walks of life gathered at the entrance of Huayi Headquarters. It was a spectacular sight.
When the media surrounded the company's gate, Wang Dajun was at the airport with his family, preparing to travel abroad.
Learning that things were getting serious, Wang Dajun was forced to give up his travel plan and returned to the company.
In front of the company, facing the reporter's interview.
Wang Dajun said happily, "This is just a misunderstanding."
Wang Dajun is really not afraid of being sued by Baidu.
Projects in the entertainment industry have unclear accounts and cannot be liquidated.
Through auditing and accounting appraisal, the accounts during the cooperation period still cannot be ascertained.
The court is unable to give a result and will rule to reject the plaintiff’s claim.
Over the years, Huayi has been sued by its partners too many times due to accounting issues, and Wang Dajun is very knowledgeable.
If it weren’t for Baidu who sued Huayi this time, Wang Dajun wouldn’t even bother.
Back in the office, Wang Dajun looked at the media reporters downstairs with a headache.
He continued to call Gong Yu, calling hundreds of times, but could not get through.
Wang Dajun gave up and was about to call Wang Jinhua.
Wang Jinhua called Wang Dajun first.
"I'm abroad now. If there's anything else I can talk about when I get back."
"I..."
Before he finished speaking, the person on the other end hung up the phone.
"Fuck, I haven't seen you so neat in taking money... Turn around and I'll make you spit it all out."
Wang Dajun finished speaking viciously, paused for a while, put on a flattering smile, and dialed Jackma's number.
......
"Okay, no problem."
"Okay, okay..."
Li Mingyang hung up the phone from Boss Zhao, quite surprised of.
Jack Ma actually invited him to Ali's headquarters.
To be fair, Jack Horse is really awesome...much better than Lao Ma.
A lot of the cool things I boasted about finally came true.
No matter what, his contribution to the bottom level is huge.
If you want to have fun at home in the future, Erma is a behemoth that you can’t get around.
After packing his clothes, Li Mingyang took the "Your Name" script with him, packed his suitcase, left the villa, drove to Yiwu Airport, and returned to Yanbei.
While waiting to board the plane, Li Mingyang made a special call to Wang Changtian and told him that his script was finished.
Wang Changtian originally wanted Li Mingyang to calm down, but when he heard that the script was completed, he was overjoyed and said: "You come over, I'll do it... It's better you come over, call me when you get to the airport, I'll send a driver I'll pick you up."
"Okay." Li Mingyang thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Wang, Boss Zhao just called me and Boss Alima invited me to the Alibaba headquarters."
< br>"This Boss Ma is not simple... Actually, I don't recommend you to meet him. The reason... It's hard to say now. You should concentrate on making movies. If you want to be in the movie industry, everything else is just a lie." Yes, only movies are real..."
"It shouldn't be a big deal if we meet, right?" Li Mingyang asked doubtfully.
"He has contacted me several times, but I have rejected him... There is no benefit in contacting him now. You have to prove yourself to be qualified to negotiate terms with him."
"... ..."
"One movie is not enough, you need another movie." Wang Changtian said.
Wang Changtian’s words are both correct and incorrect.
When it comes to qualifications, he definitely has the qualifications. He is the first web drama Diaosi series, the first variety show Running Man and Running Man, plus the first web spy play house.
Jack Ma aims to unify domestic entertainment and wants to win over him, which is normal.
But if you want to do business with Jack Ma, you must be irreplaceable enough.
Ali is famous for kicking outsiders.
Movies are king.
Directors and actors alike have chains of contempt.
TV drama directors, online drama directors, variety show directors, and online major directors have great limitations and there are too many substitutes.
Only film directors are at the top.
The mainland box office of "Bouquet" is only over 50 million, but with his small talent and great talent, he can become a talented director.
He is now just one short of a commercial film worth over 100 million yuan to join the ranks of famous directors.
Just like Ning Hao... Two movies, Crazy Stone and Crazy Racing, established his identity as a famous director.
Li Mingyang was recalling the path to fame of the new generation of directors, when a system pop-up suddenly popped up in front of him.
