Chapter 214 Youku goes public, crazy market value
"Since you know you can't act, why bother torturing me? I'm just a TV drama actress, and a TV drama actress who can't even be a heroine."
“I can’t act, but I can help you get a role!”
“Who can you ask for, and he will listen to you?”
“Of course I have my own way. ”
"If you don't tell me what the method is, I won't help."
"Keep it secret." Liu Yifei smiled and said, "Changchang, we are good sisters, when have I ever hurt you? ”
You have never harmed me, but you always force me to do things I don’t want to do...
After hanging up the phone, Su Chang frowned, thought for a long time, and finally dialed. Got a call from Huang Xiaoming.
Use favors once and less.
When Duan Shui Master Huang Xiaoming learned that Su Chang wanted to see the script of Your Name, he specifically told him not to spread it to anyone else, so he sent a copy of the word document of the script to Su Chang.
After Su Chang received the script, he did not immediately send it to Liu Yifei, but read it himself.
After reading the synopsis of the plot, Su Chang was shocked.
Your Name is actually a disaster love movie.
This is for the box office.
Ta-ta-ta...
Su Chang stared at the computer screen, pressing the direction keys while watching. The more he watched, the more fascinated he became, and then he stopped suddenly when the comet came.
"Here, is it only half, or is it only given to me? Every time, the climax is missing." Su Chang frowned slightly and complained.
Drinking a few glasses of ice water and feeling relieved, Su Chang read it again.
"Your name actually has a body swap, so many details, so girly! A man can actually write such girly dialogue, how did he... do it."
< br>
"Zhou Xun is almost forty...can he act well?" Su Chang shook his head. When he thought of Zhou Xun playing a girl, he immediately thought of Aunt Liu, the Queen Mother, playing a girl. She got goosebumps all over her body and couldn't help but fold her arms and rub them. got up.
"I can act, I can act this!"
Su Chang said a few words of excitement, but his mood gradually became low. He can act if he can, but whether he can act is another question. Something happened.
The heroine Sanye, Liu Yifei can compete.
After all, he is a movie star.
She didn't even have a chance to fight.
At around eleven o'clock in the night, Su Chang sent a message to Liu Yifei. After making sure that the other party was still asleep, he sent the script.
When Liu Yifei saw the script, she was stunned at first, and became more and more stunned as she read it.
Suddenly, she took out the necklace Li Mingyang gave her from the drawer.
In the script, the necklace is replaced by a ‘knot’, which appears many times...
"No wonder you were weird that day and pulled my sleeve."
"Not only did my character copy me, but my image also... Even the things given to me were used."
< br>Liu Yifei bit her finger, feeling very unwilling.
But she can't act in this movie... she has no chance at all.
Li Mingyang clearly rejected her and didn't even show her the script.
She also said a very hurtful thing, saying that she was not suitable for making movies and was only suitable for acting in TV series.
“After taking advantage of it, I will turn my back on you...”
“Without me, the bouquet would never have such a high box office.”
“Keep saying no. I, without the success of the bouquet, said that we are friends, and the person I am most grateful to in this life is me.”
“Actually, he doesn’t take me seriously at all, he just wants to laugh at me and not see me well!” .”
"I wonder how the conversation between Mom and Aunt Chen is going? It won't break down, right?"
"Mom, are you okay? If not, I'll do it..."
" Sissi, are you calling me?”
Liu Xiaoli’s voice suddenly sounded outside the door, frightening Liu Yifei.
"Mom, you're still up so late..." Liu Yifei whispered.
"It's very late, go to bed early, we have to film tomorrow."
"Oh."
Liu Yifei went to bed, holding her mobile phone, looking through the chat history with Li Mingyang, the more and more The sadder I think about it, the more I can't sleep.
In another room, Liu Xiaoli was sitting beside the bed, looking at the moonlight outside the window, lost in thought.
Li Mingyang’s mother seemed to know about their affairs. She replied that a person should be honest and blocked her.
Liu Xiaoli sighed softly.
She really doesn’t know what to say to her daughter now...
……
April 15, 2010.
Youku.com was officially listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
The lead underwriter of Youku's initial public offering (IPO) is Goldman Sachs, which issued 15,847,700 American depositary receipts at an issue price of US$16.8.
The opening price of the IPO on the first day was US$33, which nearly doubled.
The stock price closed at US$51.44 on the first day, an increase of 206% from the issue price of US$16.8.
Total share capital: 102 million, market value exceeds US$5.1 billion.
Compared with Sohu at the same time, its share price was US$77.17, total share capital: 37.938 million, and market value of US$2.93 billion.
On the day Youku went public, it surpassed Sohu’s market value in one fell swoop!
Exceeding more than 2 billion US dollars is equivalent to exceeding one Huayi Brothers!
The news spread back to China, causing a huge shock in the domestic Internet circle.
Internet giants headed by BAT unanimously held a meeting on video websites.
Brother Xiao Ma left the company directly without waiting for the end of the meeting. He left Shenzhen overnight and went to Yanbei to communicate with the superiors.
Li Yanhong didn't want to hear other people's chatter anymore, so she just waved her hand and invested tens of billions in iQiyi to pursue its listing.
The most intense person in the meeting was Ali.
Alibaba is divided into two major factions, one wants to take the initiative, and the other wants to wait.
The quarrel continued until the early hours of the morning, but no result was reached. In the end, Jack Ma argued against all objections and proposed to wait.
He wants to buy Youku, but the price is too high now, so he wants to bring the price down!
The crazy market value of Youku has made the owners of video websites who were suffering from losses very excited. They cheered up and held a press conference, saying that they would increase investment, expand scale, and diversify.
Among them, Zhang Chaoyang even shouted out that Sohu Video will also be listed next year so that Youku will not be alone in its beauty.
The Internet world was just a huge earthquake, but the film and television industry directly set off a huge wave.
Everyone in the industry never dreamed that online copyrights could be so valuable.
A video website that was unable to produce its own content and relied on blood transfusions from the film and television industry, once it went public, its market value exceeded US$5.1 billion.
This is not a valuation! It’s real money!
The huge profits of capital once again hit the hearts of all domestic entertainment bosses.
Listing and copyright have become the hottest topics in domestic entertainment.
From film and television company bosses to celebrities, everyone is talking about it and wants a piece of the pie.
The capitalization of domestic entertainment is the general trend.
But the authorities are not ready to fully relax... They have many concerns.
However, the benefits of Youku’s listing were so shocking that internal entertainment was shocked from top to bottom.
With the successful listing of Youku, there has been a torrent of capital and the desire of domestic entertainment practitioners for capital.
It is better to block than to open up.
The mountain eagle put forward his opinion to the General Administration.
The above thought it was a solution, so they asked the mountain eagle to take charge of it.
It’s not that it’s not open, it’s just that domestic movies need it more.
……
Hengdian, the ninth floor of Mingyang Entertainment.
Li Mingyang came to the window, opened a corner of the curtain, and looked downstairs.
I saw that the intersection below Mingyang Entertainment was blocked by the traffic police.
Hundreds of cars and more than a dozen buses are parked on the entire road...
The people gathered downstairs are even more crowded, more lively than the passenger terminal, and there are people selling snacks. Mobile stalls spread across half the street...
Dong dong!
There was a knock on the door. Li Mingyang put down the curtains and came to the door. He looked out through the peephole and saw that it was Zhang Zhao, so he opened the door.
Zhang Zhao put his hands in his pockets, walked in, sat on the sofa, and lit a cigarette before he spoke.
"Old Zhang, smoke less, you are not afraid of smoking to death..." Li Mingyang deeply suspected that Zhang Zhao left in his previous life because he smoked too much.
It’s so good, at least two packs a day.
Zhang Zhao waved his hand and exhaled a puff of smoke with a smile, "Director Li, it should be Mr. Li. You are making crazy money this time. People who want to make a fortune out of you have blocked the company. .”
Youku's violent stock price was something Li Mingyang never expected.
In the previous life, on the day Youku went public, its market value was only over 3 billion U.S. dollars. After acquiring Tudou, its market value only exceeded 4 billion U.S. dollars.
Youku’s current market value is very close to Alibaba’s acquisition market value of US$5.6 billion at the time.
Alibaba only acquired Youku Tudou 15 years ago.
A whole five years ahead of schedule!
Li Mingyang wanted to run away, but Lao Gu wouldn't let him go.
Only 0.8% will be repurchased, and the 1% will not be repurchased.
In addition, Lao Gu also added a prerequisite for repurchasing 0.8%, that is, his shares cannot be less than 1% in the next two years.
Otherwise, it will be considered a breach of contract and you will have to pay compensation.
This is a temporary verbal agreement, you don’t have to accept it.
Accept it and say anything.
If you don’t accept it, then Lao Gu will resort to dragging his feet.
Either they won’t pay, or they will delay the settlement for three to five years.
This lawsuit is useless...
And even Wang Changtian is dragging it...
Lao Gu didn’t want Wang Changtian to run away, so he only repurchased 1% and kept 1%.
“It’s too difficult to get money from capitalists. Wang Changtian and Lao Gu are still calculating.”
“How much can they get?”
“Lao Gu wants to lock up My 1% and Wang Changtian’s 1% can only get 100 million US dollars.”
“This amount has exceeded expectations! Lao Gu is also worried that if you run away, the stock price will collapse, and the US stock market will collapse in three months. It can be unlocked, but if he doesn’t lock it now, it will be too late later.”
For domestic listed companies, the original shares are subject to a three-year sales restriction, while for U.S. stocks, the original shares are unlocked in three months, but only a portion of them can be sold and there is a limit.
“It is indeed far beyond expectations.” Li Mingyang stopped pretending and grinned, “Lao Wang and I originally expected only 50 million U.S. dollars, but now it has doubled.”
"But we still have to talk about what needs to be discussed. We are not in a hurry to use the money now anyway. We agreed too readily, and Gu Yongqiang will not pay so happily."
"How did you talk with those people on the sixth floor? "
Right now, these people in the industry who come to Mingyang Entertainment are not ordinary people.
Either an industry tycoon or an industry leader.
Either they are rushing to go public, or they are discussing copyright sales.
There are also some insiders who are frustrated and want to get ahead.
The entertainment industry is divided into three, six, and nine levels.
Those who can join Mingyang Entertainment are film and television company owners with the ability to go public, as well as big bosses who want to be capital.
Or celebrities from all walks of life.
Those who have no ability and no connections can only stay outside.
