Chapter 155
“Do you know how long I have been waiting for this day?”
“Three years!!”
“Three whole years!!”
“The first in Chinese film history, finally belongs to Chinese film!!”
“Tears welled up in my eyes, Su Cheng is awesome!!”
“From the release of his first film to now, it has only been a year and he has broken many film history records. Even now that Su Cheng has retired from the film industry, he is a living legend!!”
“Retire from the film industry? Why? The first Hollywood movie has been shot, and there will be an even more magnificent and brilliant second part of”Lucy”. 1.4 billion is not the peak of Su Cheng, but just the beginning!!”
“And this is only the first in domestic film history. I want to witness Su Cheng becoming the first in global film history!!”
“……”
“It’s been exaggerated. The first in the history of global films has been announced!~！”
“That guy is a hater, deliberately praising Su Cheng to death, ignore him-！！”
“Let us congratulate our husband and set sail, aiming for the stars and the sea-！！”
“Nikkei Post: Su Gan, you should hurry up and shoot”The Matrix”. Although comedy films are good, it’s a pity to only shoot comedy films with your talent!!”
“Big movies, we want to watch domestic big movies!! What kind of world is the Matrix? Make it!!”
“What’s so good about blockbusters? Hollywood has so many movies a year, and you still haven’t seen enough? I think”Xihong City” is》、《Down-to-earth comedies like”Detective Chinatown” are more interesting. If”Detective Chinatown 2″ is ready, I want to see Qin Feng and Tang Ren team up again!!”
“Can you give Ah Xiang more roles in the next movie? I went to the cinema for Shi Shi, but it turned out that Xiao Shen Yang’s roles were not as good as mine!”
“……”
Breakthrough 14
《The box office of”Detective Chinatown” did not fall into decline.
Instead, it ushered in a small peak on this day.
This made many people in the industry realize that
《The final box office of”Detective Chinatown” is likely to exceed 1.5 billion
“Am I not keeping up with the times?”
“The domestic box office potential has actually reached a scale of 1.5 billion?”
Feng Xiaogang, who was ready to rehash his old film for the third time, fell into deep self-doubt.
Guangtou Xu quickly contacted Wang Changtian,”Mr. Wang, I think we can change the promotional route of Lost in Thailand.”
“《Detective Chinatown tells the story of the Kingdom of Thailand, and so does Lost in Thailand.”
“It’s totally possible to take advantage of the popularity!!”
Wang Changtian laughed,”Great minds think alike, Director Xu and I think the same thing.
It’s a pity that Lost in Thailand didn’t invite Bao Qiang to star, otherwise, riding on this favorable wind, not to mention 1 billion, 600 million or 700 million would definitely be no problem.
” It was Wang Changtian’s idea to put Bao Bei’er in Xu Guangtou’s play.
After all, Bao Bei’er is a well-signed artist.
And she is very good at flattering people, which made Wang Changtian very happy.
At the beginning, Xu Guangtou told Wang Changtian
《Lost in Thailand lacks a silly special actor.
Wang Changtian first thought of Bao Beier.
But now Detective Chinatown is selling like 14.
He can’t help but feel regret like Xu Guangtou. If only he had known that Su Cheng was so awesome.
He could have made Wang Baoqiang the top star in the comedy world.
No matter what, you have to wait for Baoqiang!! No matter how good the flattery is, it can’t be as real as the red money.
《If Wang Baoqiang played one of the male leads in Lost in Thailand, the box office would have been at least 200 million more!!
Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.
The only thing they can do now is to work hard on publicity.
Strive to let Lost in Thailand enjoy the”Taiwanese” bonus brought by Detective Chinatown!
Xu Guangtou and Wang Changtian are still at the”thinking” stage of riding on the popularity.
Su Cheng himself has already taken action
《On the day when the box office of”Detective Chinatown” exceeded 14,
Miaoyan released the first version of the APP.
The functions are not perfect, but it has the basic functions of online ticket purchase and seat selection.
It is also connected to the top theaters such as Wanda and Huaying.
In addition, there are single-day box office rankings for query, which provides great convenience for movie lovers.
Moreover,
Miaoyan launched a discount activity of three yuan for online ticket purchases!!
Although it is only for”Detective Chinatown”, this trick can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
It not only increases the box office potential of”Detective Chinatown”, but also brings a large number of new users to Miaoyan.
The key is: the wool comes from the sheep.
New users download Miaoyan, receive a 3 yuan coupon, buy tickets to watch”Detective Chinatown”, and the ticket money flows back to Xiancheng Film and Television.
Xiancheng and Miaoyan are both Su Cheng’s companies.
It means that Su Cheng earns three yuan less from movie tickets and accumulates the first batch of users for Miaoyan, a brand new APP.
In one day
《The box office of”Detective Chinatown” has doubled explosively, and Miaoyan has exceeded 200,000 download users in one day.
And attracted the attention of three Internet companies.
Ali Baba set up an internal working group not long ago.
Tentative name:
Ali Entertainment Business Group.
Plans to integrate entertainment sectors including film and TV series production, production, distribution, and publicity into one in the next 1 to 2 years to create an entertainment giant with Internet operations as the core.
The practical functions of Miaoyan APP quickly attracted the attention of Ali Entertainment Business Group.
And determined to plagiarize.
Under the baptism of Tencent’s”plagiarism kills originality”, there is no Internet company in China that does not understand the beauty of plagiarism.
The same is true for Ali Baba.
Ali has Taobao Movies and online ticket purchase functions, but the design is not as clever and practical as Miaoyan.
The head of Ali Entertainment Business Group.
He has made Miaoyan’s APP a flower.
I secretly sighed,”Su Cheng is indeed a film expert, he knows the audience and films too well, in the future – I will catch this APP and copy it!!
” Wang Xing, the founder of Meituan, was also planning to copy like Ali.
He was very depressed.
I was just about to change Meituan Movie to”Maoyan Movie”.
Su Cheng came up with Miaoyan Movie.
What does this mean?!
In order to prevent users from confusing Miaoyan and Maoyan.
He decided not to change the name.
He told his subordinates in charge of the ticketing section:
“This cat eye is well designed.”
“Learn more……”
High EQ: Learn more.
Low EQ: Copy it.
Another Internet company that noticed Miaoyan was Tencent, the ancestor of plagiarism.
However, this time, Tencent was not going to plagiarize.
Since the end of September 2010, Tencent and 360 have been involved in a corporate-level dispute that lasted for several years. Tencent won the lawsuit but lost its reputation.
This is because of the”plagiarism gene” that has accompanied the company since its birth.
No matter how the court decides.
Netizens have a simple value system:
Bah!
You plagiarist, you dare to complain?!
When Xiao Ma Ge was young, he could pretend to be a girl and flirt with male netizens for the promotion of his company, but now that he has become successful, he has begun to save face. After learning from the pain, he decided not to plagiarize in the future – ahem, try to plagiarize as little as possible, but take a more open and embracing attitude to accept the emerging industries of the Internet.
Translated, it means:
Tencent has become an Internet giant.
Ordinary small companies don’t need to plagiarize.
Just invest money.
Facing the”blockbuster” Miaoyan.
That’s what Tengxun did.
January 25th.
An ordinary Friday.
Su Cheng received a call from Zhou Wenqiong.
After listening to her report, he was a little surprised,”It’s only been a few days since Miaoyan went online, and Tengxun sent someone to contact you to discuss investment?”
Zhou Wenqiong was also surprised,”Yes, I thought it was a scam at first, and I verified it several times before I confirmed that it was Tengxun’s investment department. Mr. Su, do you think you should accept the investment?”
Su Cheng asked,”How are the conditions?”
Zhou Wenqiong replied,”It’s very generous. I have sent their investment draft to your email. You can read it and call me back.”
“OK~”
Su Cheng hung up the phone and started reading emails.
After finishing reading. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
I have to admire Xiao Ma Ge’s”generosity”.
No wonder Tengxun had such a bad reputation in the early years.
Later, it gradually improved with the help of Ali and Baidu.
He really was willing to give money!!
Not only money[]
And it gives traffic.
It’s not like Lao Ma. He only wants to occupy other people’s companies.
After reading the draft of the investment, Su Cheng immediately called Zhou Wenqiong back,”Tengxun’s conditions are good, and it can be seen that they really want to cooperate with our company.”
“You continue to talk to them, and don’t give them too many shares. You should have noticed that ticket subsidies are very expensive. As far as I know, Meituan, Ali, and Baidu all have their own ticketing sections, and sooner or later there will be a ticket subsidy war.”
Su Cheng calmly analyzed:”Miaoyan will spend a long time burning money in the future, and there will be a second and third round of financing soon. What we have to do is to drive traffic to Miaoyan through the two social software under Tencent, and become the absolute leader in ticketing apps as soon as possible.”
Zhou Wenqiong nodded and said,”I understand. It is most important to seize the traffic entrance of Tencent and V. Try to give as few shares as possible.” Su Cheng hummed,”Try to raise the valuation as much as possible.””
“OK, I’ll contact you anytime.”
The initial success of Miaoyan means that Su Cheng’s film empire has become more and more popular in terms of content production.��、The distribution and online promotion systems are complete.
The only shortcoming now is the cinema.
Su Cheng originally did not plan to do cinema because it was troublesome and expensive.
He could have picked the fruits when the time was right.
But a call two days later made him change his mind……..
Wu Kebo, founder of Chengtian Entertainment and former boss of Tang Yan, Su Cheng had dealt with him several times – Tang Yan Studio also had a small stake in Chengtian.
Su Cheng received a call from Wu Kebo on January 27.
He thought it was the same as last time.
He wanted to talk about agency distribution.
Chengtian Entertainment reached an agreement with Zou Wenhuai in 2007 and acquired 24.78% of Golden Harvest Group shares and convertible bonds held by Zou Wenhuai and his daughter.
Until 2009.
Chengtian Entertainment completely took over Golden Harvest.
A film era ended.
Golden Harvest has since become Chengtian Golden Harvest.
The controller became Wu Kebo.
Golden Harvest is a long-established film company in Hong Kong Island, with cinemas in the Mainland, Hong Kong Island, Taiwan, and Singapore. In addition, it also has complete distribution channels in many countries in Southeast Ya.
Su Cheng’s”The Richest Man in Xihong City” released in the summer of last year.
He sold the distribution rights of Hong Kong Island, Taiwan, and Southeast Ya to Chengtian Golden Harvest.
0 Asking for flowers
Wu Kebo called again.
Su Cheng thought he was coming for the distribution rights of”Detective Chinatown”. However, after a few words,
Su Cheng looked surprised,”Mr. Wu wants to sell me the shares of Orange Sky Golden Harvest?”
Wu Kebo nodded,”Yes, Mr. Su, you heard it right.”
“Why?”
“Because I was short of money, because I failed Mr. Zou Wenhuai’s expectations, and because I was unable to restore Golden Harvest’s glory, and because I was old and no longer had the will to strive…….There can be many reasons. Mr. Su wants to hear how I make them up?!”
“……”
Su Cheng touched his nose,”Boss Wu is really funny.”
Wu Kebo smiled,”Boss Su, don’t worry about traps, you can send an acquisition team to the company for inspection.”
Su Cheng was surprised,”With the film library that Golden Harvest has, there will be no trouble finding a buyer, right? Why did Boss Wu think of me?”
Zou Wenhuai is one of the behind-the-scenes bosses in the Hong Kong film industry.
Golden Harvest’s film library is too brilliant——
《The Big Boss》、《Way of the Dragon》、《Fist of Fury》、《Police story》、《Red Bronx》、《Li Wang》、《The Deer and the Cauldron》、《Wong Fei Hung: A Man Should Be Strong》、《Young and Dangerous, etc……..
These classic Hong Kong films all belong to Golden Harvest. Now that Golden Harvest has been acquired by Chengtian, it has also been placed under the umbrella of Chengtian Golden Harvest.
It has such a rich copyright to old films.
Although Chengtian Golden Harvest’s current market value has been stuck at around 1 billion, it seems that it cannot be compared with several film companies in the mainland.
But if you want to get rid of it, many companies are scrambling to get it.
Others don’t say anything.
Ali Baba will definitely be happy to get it.
In his previous life, Ali Baba spent more than 6 billion to acquire China Culture Communication Group.
In order to implement the”big entertainment strategy”.
Ali has always been willing to spend money!! Wu
Kebo said frankly:”The reason for looking for President Su is very simple, because I know you have a lot of cash flow, you can afford the money, and you are willing to pay.”
“Another thing is…..”
“Mutually���Rather than selling to an Internet company, I prefer to sell it to my peers. You are a talented director, and Chengtian Jiahe will have a better future in your hands.”
Although I am not sure what Wu Kebo’s real thoughts are.
But he is willing to sell Chengtian Jiahe’s shares.
It is indeed in Su Cheng’s current interests.
First of all, it can have distribution channels in Dongnan Ya and other countries.
Although the box office of”The Richest Man in Xihong City” in Hong Kong Island, Taiwan Bay, and Dongnan Ya is relatively average, Su Cheng does not think that”Tang Detective” can sell well in these places.
But prepare for a rainy day,”Xihong City》、《”Detective Chinatown” is a comedy with a strong local style, and there are certain barriers to viewing. However, science fiction films like”The Matrix” have no barriers to viewing. With distribution channels, they can better export Chinese blockbusters.
Secondly, Golden Harvest also has more than a dozen cinemas in the mainland. Not only does it have a theater license, but its name is also more famous than Orange Film. If it wants to expand the scale of its cinemas, it can use the name of Golden Harvest.
Finally, Golden Harvest has a rich film library. Some old Hong Kong movies are actually quite good for remaking.
In short.
If this deal can be reached
——Not bad!! It’s the end of January in the Gregorian calendar.
The Lunar calendar has also entered the middle of the twelfth lunar month.
Although the New Year atmosphere in the city is relatively weak, as the New Year is approaching, some festive and lively elements can still be seen everywhere…….
Su Cheng has been even busier during this period.
He has to pay attention to Miaoyan’s negotiation with Tengxun for a stake, and he also has to pay attention to Xiancheng Film’s acquisition of Wu Kebo’s shares in Chengtian Jiahe…….
In addition, there are some official events that need to be attended.
Another one is”The Hunger Games”》、《The post-production of”Your Name” needs to be monitored.
Su Cheng also flew to the United States in early February
《The first trailer of”The Hunger Games” will be officially released during the Oscars commercials!
Lionsgate Films told Su Cheng a good news.
Big Cousin will most likely win the Oscar for Best Actress.
He will be invited to the Oscars ceremony to stir up a scandal with Big Cousin.
The method of hype is also very simple.
Big Cousin wins the award.
She kisses Su Cheng excitedly.
The genius director and the new Oscar winner
《Isn’t the popularity of”The Hunger Games” going to soar?!
Not only domestic netizens like to ship CP.
Americans are the same.
Su Cheng greeted his girlfriends as soon as he returned to China.
Everyone expressed their understanding.
But they were still jealous.
The way to be jealous was to squeeze Su Cheng dry.
Get the second physical fitness bonus.
Su Cheng thought he was fearless and could fight several people at once.
However, the facts proved that he overestimated himself.
A few days before the New Year. Every night was full of partying.
Even an iron man couldn’t stand it.
Su Cheng spent New Year’s Eve at Liu Yifei’s house.
Zhou Wenqiong looked at Su Cheng who looked like he was overindulging in sex, and secretly glared at Liu Yifei: I know you have been holding it in for 26 years, but you can’t squeeze it like this!!
Liu Yifei:”……”
I am wronged!!
