Chapter 1081: Retaliatory Measures; Starry Star - Exit!
In the nearly two-hour meeting, Wang Wei put almost all the objective data from Tudou.com in front of Lin Nan and the five others.
As small as the proportion of employees, as large as the market share is stable and improving... The speed of burning money is getting faster and faster every quarter, more and more funds are burned, and the "loss rate" continues to rise... …
Of course, it is a good thing to have a "loss" at this time.
Being able to accurately "lose money" to the place where it should be "lost", and the more "loss" there is, the more the company enjoys, which further proves that Tudou still has huge growth potential and room for development!
It's around 1 o'clock in the afternoon, in the private room of the restaurant.
On the table, you can still see the traces of changing cups and cups, and people from Penguin and Weibo have already left early, and they have to rush back to do business.
No one was dissatisfied with this trip to Tudou; everyone, including Lin Nan, was very excited.
"We just have to wait until March next year, and then a listed Internet company with a market value of 100 billion will appear in the industry." Wang Changtian said with excitement and expectation while holding the wine glass.
"Dr. Wang, you launched the satellite in advance again. How can it be so easy to make 100 billion?
The market value was only 48 billion after the second round. Even if it has risen to 500+, it is simply a daydream to directly double it through listing. It’s not a small company. If you say it will double, it will double! "
"What Director Lin said is reasonable. The larger the size of a listed company, the harder it is to "multiple" the market value growth. "Wang Wei agreed with a smile. One hundred billion is almost impossible.
"You two are really disappointing. Isn't this also a good wish from me. "Wang Changtian drank down the red wine in the glass with disgust and said no more.
But at this moment, Liu Xiaobin spoke unexpectedly:
"While today Lin Since Director Wang and Director Wang are both here, I want to talk to you about some things first. After all, the three of us are allies. ”
Hearing this unusually solemn and serious tone, Lin Nan and Wang Changtian immediately realized that it was something related to the film and television industry. At the same time, Wang Wei also sat up straightly and looked at Liu Xiaobin.
“Next month, director Li An’s “Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk” will be filmed first, followed by Feng Xiaogang’s “I’m Not Pan Jinlian.”
For For the latter movie, the group had already deliberately taken some measures a few months ago. It was just decided a few days ago and will be implemented by the theater chain;
Next month, all cinemas under the theater chain will The film scheduling rate of Hua Yi's "I'm Not Pan Jinlian" has been cut to the lowest level. Compared with the film scheduling rate given by other theaters, it can be directly cut in half.
In addition, starting from this movie, Hua Yi will be the best in the future. For all the movies exclusively produced by Yiyi and produced by the main control, we will only give the lowest domestic film schedule. No, there is no lowest, only lower! ”
After the words fell, Lin Nan and the three of them were silent in front of the dining table.
Lin Nan picked up his own juice, Wang Changtian poured some red wine, and Wang Wei was a little at a loss.
This is the revenge method that Wanda has been planning for more than half a year for what happened at the beginning of the year, and it is a real method to kill Hua Yi.
Monopoly? It is impossible to monopolize a monopoly. How could it be possible to prevent your Huayi movies from entering Wanda Cinemas?
But the marketing department and the film market are not optimistic about your movie, so you can only blame your movie for not being good. You only deserve to have such a small schedule, so you can't blame everyone.
"Wanda Cinemas does not need Huayi's movies, but Huayi's movies cannot be separated from Wanda's cinemas... This is the confidence of the cinema chain with the largest market share!"
Wang Changta was the first to speak, laughing and sighing. Immediately, he said another sentence that stunned both Lin Nan and Wang Wei:
"Since we have done it, why not do it more thoroughly?
Don't do it either. I'm not going to stop talking about only giving half the film scheduling rate of other theaters. Let's just give the film scheduling rate below 10 points, um, 5 or 6 points.
Arrange the time a little better, such as after 10 pm, before 8 am, and the period from 12 noon to 2 pm. Aren’t these prime time periods? ”
Good guy, Lin Nan never thought that Wang Changtian would "add insult to injury" so harshly! But it is understandable. After all, Guang Guang and Hua Yi are also real enemies.
Looking at Liu Xiaobin again, his eyes were narrowed, and his face showed an expression of serious thinking and eagerness to try. As for Wang Wei, he has enjoyed a lot, and he is just looking forward to watching the excitement.
“What a great idea, I’ll mention it to you when I get back today. Director Wang, I have to thank you. In my opinion, the chance of passing is almost 100%!”
As he spoke, Liu Xiaobin raised his wine glass and said, "It's enough for the three of you to know about this matter, and don't spread it anymore."
"Do you even need to say this? Come on, let's go."
"Don't worry, Mr. Liu, I'm just waiting to watch the fun, haha..."
Lin Nan also smiled and nodded, picking up his own juice. He was also looking forward to it, looking forward to seeing Hua Yi jumping to break the defense.
After a while, the four of them estimated that the time was almost up, and then they got up and prepared to leave.
Wang Wei and Liu Xiaobin were the busiest. They got in the car and left without stopping. But Lin Nan and Wang Changtian are not the same. They are not "wage earners".
"Lin Nan, you see, this is the confidence and domineering power of large theater chains! Although Huayi also has theater chains, they are only small theater chains and cannot threaten anyone...
What Liu Xiaobin said today about Wanda’s plan to ‘get’ Huayi made me deeply moved. To be honest, if it weren’t for the high cost of operating a theater chain, I would have wanted Guangguang to set up a theater business!
By the way, I remember you seemed to have this intention before, right? Take it easy, but I am really looking forward to your theater chain...
If, I mean if, if that day comes, remember to let me take a share... Let's become bigger and stronger together ! "
"Dr. Wang, you'd better go back and take a nap. Are you talking in your sleep under this bright sun? Lin Nan joked with a smile, and then got into the Ferrari given by Wang Changtian.
The roar of the engine sounded, and in the blink of an eye, only Lao Wang was left standing there eating exhaust fumes. The latter was speechless, "Is this a bad idea? How wonderful! ”
……
No. 5, morning.
With the official announcement of the nomination list for the Golden Horse Awards, the invitation letters that seem to be routine every year were also sent to Lin Nan Pictures and Red Star Wood.
Of course, all the famous celebrities in the mainland film industry are invited. However, it is definitely impossible for Lin Nan and Liu Yifei to go. After all, they have no time, and they really have no interest.
The loudest shouter in the circle is undoubtedly Hua Yi.
Because "I'm Not Pan Jinlian" has been nominated for many important awards, and its momentum is huge, it is a absolute favorite to win the award!
"Huang Bo will officially submit "A Good Show" for review on the 8th. Remember to tell Hongxingwu to receive funds; on the 9th, the first offline promotion of "Operation Mekong"... On the 10th, the core creators of "Operation Red Sea" will set off with the navy, and we will go see them off..."
While reading the news, Lin Nan was talking to Liu Yifei about the subsequent work arrangements.
The leisurely days are coming to an end soon, and both of them have to work together; after all, Liu Yifei is the producer of "Operation Mekong", and she has to go on promotional tours with Director Lin.
"I know, I'm thinking about another thing. We agreed to them simply, but you didn't even mention it to Tudou?"
"This is not a big deal. It's going public. The first part of the stock subscription was originally prepared for the key members of the company and the relatives of the major shareholders. Can one person rise to heaven, don't you think?" Lin Nan looked up at Liu Yifei and said with a smile.
Zhu Yawen and his wife, Luo Jin, and Han Jianu, didn’t they just hold Lin Nan and Liu Yifei’s thighs and ascend to heaven together?
As for Shu Chang, Liu Qianqian mentioned it to Wang Wei a long time ago.
Actually speaking, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei had this idea a long time ago, otherwise Ms. Liu wouldn’t have given Lin Nan a look that day, but Han Jia’er just shouted first He was "poor" and took away the words!
"Hmm, wait until next time when everyone gets together, I have to have a good chat with them about the 'chicken and dog' thing, hehe..." Hearing this, Miss Liu hugged her belly and started laughing, leaning forward and back. Turned.
In the outside world, auditions for "The Righteous" and "Youth" have been going on for three or four days, and the media paparazzi have also been waiting for three or four days.
However, these people did not come up with any useful information. Instead, the two crew members reported the casting situation to the outside world!
No, at noon, relevant news was all over the front page of film and television entertainment information; eight of the top ten most searched items on Weibo were about these two movies.
Huang Xuan and Peng Yuyan, one was cast as the male lead in "Youth", and the other was cast as the second male lead in "The Righteous One";
As for the male protagonist of "The Evil Will Suppress Right"? Everyone inside and outside the circle knows that it is definitely Jiang Wen, so there is no need to guess!
However, a question has also been exposed, that is, such an important role was cast in just three or four days - did they really audition? Even a fool can see that it was decided in advance!
Dong Ping, Xu Zheng and Ning Hao are entertaining Gu Changwei. At this moment, the former three people all "despise" Hua Yi's operation.
Who in the industry doesn’t know about the “scandal”? Although the contract between Director Gu and Hua Yi expires at the end of this month and they have made it clear that they will not cooperate, isn't it still twenty days before they completely part ways?
But now, "Youth" has only been auditioning for four days, and Huang Xuan has been officially announced to the outside world... This is obviously just spitting in the face. He didn't save any face for Gu Changwei, he was just disgusting with the latter.
"Don't worry, Director Gu. After you come to Huanxi, your treatment will be exactly the same as that of Director Wang Jiawei and Director Chen Kexin. As for the shares, it depends on how much Director Gu can take.
Wang Jiawei and Chen Kexin The director's current direct and indirect shareholding ratios in Huanxi are 4.15% and 5.89% respectively. Director Gu can refer to this..."
More than an hour later, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves; Gu Changwei proposed to leave first Naturally, Dong Ping and the others did not stop him.
"If you say that Director Gu is not angry, I don't believe him even if he is beaten to death. Hua Yi is really disgusting, and his methods are so fucking despicable!" Ning Hao smacked his mouth and cursed.
"It's a little bit like that. Hua Yi does things without leaving any way out. From now on, even if Director Gu and there are completely broken up, it might not be a bad thing for Huanxi. .”
Dong Ping fully analyzed it from the perspective of joy, although this may be a bit unkind.
"Okay, are we going to have a dinner with director Zhang Yibai tonight? Ning Hao, are you going?" Xu Zheng turned his head and looked at Ning Hao.
"I won't go. I'm not in the mood. Let's go first." As he spoke, Ning Hao turned and walked towards his car.
"Then let's go. Including Zhang Yibai, Huanxi has four well-known directors, and we will continue to expand in the future!" Dong Ping said to Xu Zheng in a good mood, who immediately He smiled and nodded.
……
If Yan Fei hadn't called to remind him, Lin Nan would have almost forgotten the movie "The Donkey Gets Water". It will be released on the 28th at the end of the month, with a premiere on the 25th.
It can only be said that it is really difficult for the main creative face to be "amateur" to attract the attention of more viewers and netizens. Media propaganda and reporting alone will also have little effect.
At the critical moment, Lin Nan, a well-known director, had to go to the stage in person, but...it was just overkill!
"I know, I know, I will save the schedule. By the way, have all the actors of "The Shameful Iron Fist" been decided? When are you going to start filming?"
" Director Lin, the casting is not over yet. But don’t worry, please convey the report to Producer Liu on our behalf, "The Shy Iron Fist" will start filming in early December at the latest, and there will be no delays."
"Okay, I'll tell her."
After a few brief chats, Lin Nan hung up the phone. One more thing has happened, and these two months are obviously not rushing to film, but it is as if they are about to join the set and work overtime!
The stars are shining brightly.
Lu Zheng has already begun to do the "finishing" work, while Jing Tian is listening to his final instructions.
"Tiantian, at the end of the year, after I have taken care of the financial and tax issues, I will cancel Starlight. You also need to register your own studio.
As for the team members of the studio, it doesn’t need to be too complicated. Just implement the three points of assistant, agent and finance...
As of this year, you have been in the industry for 12 years, and you should be able to take the next step. If you really have a problem, go to Director Lin for help, he will never refuse! ”
Looking at Jingtian, Lu Zheng felt that he didn’t need to say anything more. Because Jingtian’s development foundation has been laid very solidly over the years, especially in terms of connections, which is better than 99% of the people in the circle. actress!
“I know, Uncle Lu. Thank you for all these years. "
Jing Tian's eyes were a little red. Although Lu Zheng helped her these years because it involved some "favor business" between elders, but after so long, how could she not have any feelings at this moment? Fluctuations.
"No need to tell me thank you. Tiantian, I wish you smooth sailing in the future."
Lu Zheng smiled and nodded, as if he had just stepped into the film and television industry and had been "touring" for more than ten years. Well; after this year ends, I will completely quit this industry and return to my job.
