Chapter 191 Capital that resists capital
At noon the next day, under the introduction of Cai Chongxin, Li Mingyang met many Hong Kong film and television tycoons in the club.
It’s both unexpected and not surprising.
I unexpectedly met Li Lianjie.
Jack Ma and Jet Li have a very good relationship, which is almost an open secret.
The two have known each other since as early as 2008.
With each taking what they needed, Jet Li and Jack Ma signed a long-term cooperation plan between One Foundation and Taobao. Jet Li also invited Jack Ma to become a director of One Foundation.
One is an Internet tycoon and the other is the Kung Fu Emperor.
The cooperation between the two parties is quite close, but it has not been brought to the forefront yet.
Li Mingyang doesn’t like Li Lienjie very much, but he also respects him.
After all, he is China Entertainment's action star and kung fu emperor.
I don’t know if it’s because of Donnie Yen or some other reason.
Jet Li seemed a little hostile to him. He chatted happily with others, but was very cold towards himself.
Other big names in Hong Kong, such as Huang Baiming, Boss Yang, Xiang Jia and his wife, are very enthusiastic towards him.
Li Mingyang is quite familiar with this kind of situation.
Even though he was unhappy with Boss Yang and Huayi, he still laughed when he should laugh and drank when he should drink.
Lao Yang is very humble...
A boss with a net worth of tens of billions, but his stature is lower than Wang Dajun.
There is no other way. If the Hong Kong circle wants to make a living in domestic entertainment, and I am still the best in the world like before, then I am simply committing suicide.
Hong Kong films are imported films. As long as the mountain eagle says one word, there will be no food in the Hong Kong community.
The reason why Enlight can defeat the Hong Kong industry is precisely because domestic film and television companies have been cheated by the Hong Kong industry time and time again. Only Enlight can counterattack the Hong Kong circle.
The mountain eagle is very happy, and the Rays now have leverage to suppress the Hong Kong circle.
The bigger the bosses are in the entertainment industry, the more amiable they are, at least on the surface.
People who appear to be amiable may be more dangerous.
People who appear to be honest and honest can stab you in the back even harder.
At night, Alibaba headquarters.
Li Mingyang took the gift bag handed over by Ali staff.
Very light...
When I opened it, I saw two small tea cans.
“This is the Shifeng Longjing that a friend gave me a while ago. It tastes good. If you are not used to drinking it, you can give it as a gift. No matter who you give it to, it will be worth it.” Cai Chongxin said.
"Thank you, Mr. Cai."
Li Mingyang shook hands with Cai Chongxin goodbye and got into the car.
Wu Zhikui started the vehicle and drove into the traffic flow towards Hengdian.
Li Mingyang finally listened to the advice and did not ask Ali to borrow money.
Even if Tsai Chongxin hinted that Ali was willing to support him financially, he only borrowed one million symbolically.
Pay off the mortgage.
"Director Li, why don't you borrow more, Ali is quite rich, tens of millions is nothing to them." Wu Zhikui said.
“Alibaba is capital, you borrow their money, and they want you to pay back your life.”
“This is an exaggeration...According to what you taught us before, this debt The more people there are, the closer the relationship is, isn’t it? ”
Yes! The more one owes, the closer the relationship becomes.
But Li Mingyang didn't want to get too close to Ali.
It is easy for other Internet companies to enter the entertainment industry, either to share the pie, to create pan-entertainment, or to open up new markets.
And Alibaba...
In other words, Jack Ma’s true purpose, I’m afraid the Alibaba people themselves don’t know.
He wants to make stars!
Use the entertainment industry as a springboard to build yourself into a domestic superstar and a national idol!
And he did!
Many of Ali's projects have developed rapidly due to his huge celebrity effect.
As long as many people see Alibaba’s projects, they will believe it without hesitation.
After all, he did change the way of life in the country.
Then it drifted away.
Jack Ma is not interested in money...really, really not interested anymore.
So he said that, I am busier than President Z, but I don’t have the rights of President Z.
Alibaba at its peak is the most powerful company in the country.
The peak Jack Ma, who talks about the future, is the future he has shaped.
"Old Wu! With capital, if you obey it, you can only get a lot, but if you resist capital, you can get more."
Li Mingyang opened the car window and looked at the brightly lit CBD, "And I have the capital to resist capital!”
……
Li Mingyang likes a saying of Andy’s.
That is, making a good movie is not a matter of time, but a matter of preparation.
An excellent movie is never a matter of one person. It’s a team effort and everyone counts.
Even if the crew brings tea and water, it is still very important.
The Academy Awards once presented a Professional Spirit Award to an ordinary, illiterate aunt
who was responsible for serving tea and water on the set.
Mingyang Entertainment seventh floor.
Li Mingyang stood in the corner, his eyes rolling over everyone in the Far Cry crew. He was feeling the disharmony in the crew.
Back at the carefully prepared shooting site in Hengdian, the crew's progress suddenly accelerated a lot.
But compared with the behind-the-scenes of a spy, it is far different.
Those people brought by Ye Weixin really know what you want to do with just one look. They only need to talk briefly and they can give him the most professional feedback behind the scenes.
And now the new crew members are too young.
Youth represents unlimited possibilities, but it also represents lack of experience.
There is no good way, just keep debugging.
Put everyone in their most appropriate position.
This tests the director’s control ability and vision.
Dapeng became a monk halfway through, and had too few contacts with the film crew, so he didn't know how to recognize people.
If you ask him to work, he can do it well,
but he cannot put people in the right position.
New directors each have their own shortcomings.
Wu Zhikui’s biggest problem is that he takes himself too seriously.
Dapeng's biggest problem is that he doesn't take himself too seriously and is so groveling... he doesn't have the eyes to see it!
These two problems will disappear after more crews have experienced them. They are minor problems.
What is the scariest new director?
That is the behind-the-scenes process of superstitiously winning awards when you have funds and connections.
For example, Yu Feihong.
In 2007, the filming of "Love Is Afterlife" with only a few actors cost 40 million. Where did the money go?
There are only a few people in the whole movie. Fairy Jinghong doesn’t need money, and Duan Yihong is not yet the best actor, so the price is friendship.
The money is spent on the team behind the scenes.
"Infernal Affairs" photography director Li Yaohui, "Raise the Red Lantern" lighting engineer Zhao Fei, "Assassination of the Qin" costume designer Mo Xiaomin, "Assembly" sound engineer Wang Danrong, "October Siege" Editor Zhao An'er...
Then he burst into tears and his eyes were swollen from crying.
Later, I comforted myself by saying that it was a literary film, so it was normal for the box office to be low.
Until Li Mingyang spent two million to shoot a bouquet of love, the eldest sister broke her guard again and cried even harder. The news spread all over Beijing...
From From a certain perspective, Yu Feihong’s money was spent correctly.
Her fault lies in being the director herself.
Li Mingyang can use her behind the scenes to make "Wushuang".
And her limit can only be to film the afterlife of love.
Besides there really being a ghost, it’s shocking.
Others... Li Mingyang can take pictures with a 5D series SLR camera.
[17:52:23]
"How can these people take pictures of your name with me..." Li Mingyang shook his head unsatisfied and handed over the production work. Wu Zhikui left the seventh floor and took the elevator to the ninth floor.
After getting out of the elevator, Li Mingyang glanced at the office area. There were only a few people at the workstations.
It’s not that there are no employees, but these employees are busy shooting their own works downstairs.
After the recording of Running Bar, Li Mingyang signed a contract with Youku to make a self-made micro-movie, and the money will be calculated based on the number of clicks.
The average number of clicks is only a few dozen yuan, but the number of clicks is good and you can earn more than 10,000 yuan.
50/50 between the company and the producer.
Based on sales volume alone, the sales amounted to more than 200,000 yuan a month, which was barely enough to cover the cost of water, electricity and employee meals. The employees’ salaries were beyond the reach.
Currently, Mingyang Entertainment has two main sources of income, self-made micro-movies and Weibo marketing.
Zhong Xiaoyu is mainly in charge of Weibo marketing. Because he is maintaining his account and studying, his income is average.
The self-produced micro-movie is losing money and relies entirely on bouquet entertainment.
The biggest income of Huabou Entertainment comes from artist managers, including Tan Songyun and Zhang Xiaofei.
Zhang Xiaofei is in a mess, so ignore it.
In other words, Mingyang Entertainment was raised by Tan Songyun alone.
Only Li Mingyang knew about this matter, not even Tan Songyun himself.
Last time, in order to produce Running Man, Li Mingyang hired a lot of people, including photographers, screenwriters, finance, and legal affairs.
These people mainly come from Beijing Film Academy, China Theater, China Media, and other universities. They are all young people.
The people in charge of finance and legal affairs are all old people with more than ten years of experience, so there is no problem.
In terms of content production, Li Mingyang prefers newcomers, so he can only lose money to try.
As long as there is a talented director or screenwriter here, it will be earned with blood.
If there is an actor, it will be a huge profit.
Of course, such chances are slim.
