Heaven's Martial Fate

Chapter 520 Ambitious
For such a thing to happen, Xingkong Video has long been psychologically prepared online and offline.

An announcement was issued immediately, saying that the video network's behavior was a re-operation attempt of the old movie copyright.

The viewing fee of five cents to one yuan for a classic old Hong Kong film is not high at all, and it is even higher than the cost of renting pirated discs before 2000.

Of course, if you can't bear it, don't force it.

The meaning is very clear, I really want to watch it for free, and the video network has nothing to do with it.

The purpose is not meant to be publicized.

Wu Dong's idea at this time is nothing more than cultivating the habit of netizens watching genuine movies and TV series and paying for watching genuine movies and TV series.

When the time is right, directly establish an online theater chain.

Of course, it is also possible to say that it is a paid film and television program, but it is just an argument.

Except for a few flagship theaters, Star Director Studio will not set up its own physical theater chain.

It's not that I think physical theaters are a sunset industry, I just don't want to be so troublesome, and management is not a simple matter.

The current network technology has not yet developed to the point where everything can be intelligently managed through the network.

As long as the director's studio can continue to release a large number of high-quality movies, the theaters will not dare to offend them easily.

Whether it is now or later, there are not many theaters in China.

Even if it develops to its peak, Wanda, which is known as the world's number one cinema chain, will not be able to cover the sky with one hand in the domestic theater market.

Any businessman with a normal mind will not struggle with money.

Of course, at this time, the domestic online video platforms have not yet exploded, and the general environment is not friendly to regular film and television websites.

Fortunately, Star Group's procurement of Golden Harvest's film library is not a means of targeting domestic netizens.

Not only the acquisition of Golden Harvest's film library, but also the online copyrights of films made by Shaw Brothers and New Art City are quietly being acquired.

With the size of the Star Group and its overseas strength, it is entirely possible to establish a pure movie website and promote the movie website through Laomei's powerful influence covering the world.

In fact, an investment company registered in the Cayman Islands has already established a film and television website in Laomina.

At the same time, it also acquired a Chinese TV station in San Francisco.

Of course, it is not easy to find out the nominal boss and shareholders through multiple layers of dolls.

It is just a message to the outside world, and it is the work of a Chinese capital with strong strength.

This matter did not attract the slightest attention from Lao Mei.

There are hundreds of private TV stations in Laomei, but only a few with national influence, and Chinese TV stations only have a little ratings in Chinese-inhabited areas.

As for the film and television website, it is even more inconspicuous.

After all, whether it is a Chinese TV station or a linked film and television website, a large number of old Hong Kong movies are played, and the target and number of audiences attracted are limited.

Wu Dong is not in a hurry at this time, just take his time.

In Europe, in Africa, in Southeast Asia, in Japan, South Korea, and Hong Kong Island, there are independent film and television websites, but the content of the linkage is quite consistent.

Soon, some fans of Hong Kong movies and action movies suddenly discovered that there was an additional film and television website on the Internet.

It specializes in playing classic old Hong Kong movies in the past, and they are all action movies.

Although it has not undergone much promotion, relying on word-of-mouth fermentation, it has gradually accumulated a certain amount of action movie lovers.

I have to say that the action movies created in the golden age of Hong Kong movies may be outdated in terms of costumes, props and styling, but there is no problem with the plot and excitement.

Although watching these old Hong Kong movies still requires a little bit of money, which affects the enthusiasm of some action movie lovers, the development of film and television websites has been slowly improving.

In Southeast Asia and East Asia, which have been influenced by Hong Kong movies for many years, there are also some action movie lovers in Europe and the United States, who have become viewers of film and television websites and Chinese TV stations.

At this time, in order to meet the needs of the current audience, it is necessary to digitally convert these classic old Hong Kong films and enable high-definition processing through technology.

It can only be said that a classic is a classic. Although a long time has passed, the number of browsing on film and television websites and the number of movie views have been slowly increasing.

Even the DVDs and videotapes of these classic old Hong Kong movies have sold a lot, and they have considerable development potential.

After the newly opened film and television website has a certain popularity base among some movie fans, it will slowly post some action movies shot by Starry Sky Director's Studio.

As for the Chinese TV station, while stabilizing the ratings base, while expanding the number of viewers, there are other actions.

No one knew that Wu Dong spread his entertainment overseas without any notice, and it still covered such a large area.

If it is spread out, it may cause a huge sensation in the country.

In order to avoid accidents, besides Wu Dong and his brother, there is no one who knows the comprehensive information about this matter.

Even the high-level executives of Xingkong Director's Studio, and even the executives of Xingkong Group, only know part of the situation.

Some understand the layout of film and television websites in Southeast Asia and East Asia, as well as Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, some only know that a film and television website has been opened in Laomei, and some only have access to business in Europe.

As for the Chinese TV station, even within the group, they only thought it was a cooperative relationship with the other party, and never thought that the group was the owner of that Chinese TV station.

It can be regarded as an alternative layout. As for whether it can be effective, it will have to wait for time to test slowly.

Wu Dong's plan is very simple. If such a layout can be effective, the website can be developed in a comprehensive way in the future.

Even later, you can use website traffic to open an e-commerce platform.

Of course, it's just an attempt right now, as to whether it will succeed, Wu Dong himself is not very clear.

Time passed, and soon it was the day when the Europa League, which was transformed from the UEFA Cup, started.

At this time, most of the eyes of domestic fans are focused on the Antwerp club in Belgium.

Even the CCTV Sports Channel has purchased broadcasting rights. It is not an exaggeration to say that it has attracted much attention.

The Antwerp club is about to start the UEFA Europa League. The domestic fans who have already regarded Antwerp as their home team, the eager but anxious mood is understandable.

Wu Dong was not hypocritical, but immediately took an international flight to Antwerp, Belgium, accompanied by members of the Osmanthus Club.

Ahem, a few relevant people from the Municipal Sports Bureau and the Football Association were also stuffed in, saying that they knew everything about the investigation.

At this time, the Antwerp club performed quite well in the League One.

As the backbone of the team, the Huaxia players naturally performed well.

Dong Fangzhuo, in particular, did not know what was the stimulus, and his explosive scoring ability even firmly suppressed Lambert, a typical English player who was later a late bloomer, as the team's second striker.

Zheng Zhi, 29, and Li Gang, 31, combined with Belgian rookie De Bruyne, showed quite amazing midfield control.

The performance of the rest of the Huaxia players was also quite good.

On the other hand, Li Datou, with his fiery temper on the court, has gradually gained a bit of fame in the League One.

Among other things, when certain opponents with bad character want to deliberately target Antwerp players, they also have to weigh the possible serious consequences.

It's just that, because of some bullshit in the country, the Chinese players in Antwerp have been frequently recruited by the national team recently, and both their status and performance have been affected to a certain extent.

Wu Dong has no intention of backing down at all. At this time, the urgently purchased private jet is not in place yet, so the team's Huaxia players can only grit their teeth and hold on for a while.

He is not the one who suffers from being bored and does not hum!

In private, some domestic sports forums have already had some rumors.

However, when it comes to the national team, it's not good to make things too big, so as not to be beaten by the opponent.

But that's the case, but fans who know that the Chinese players of the Antwerp team have been frequently called up recently feel something is wrong.

Fortunately, the players from the Osmanthus school team who were also targeted were able to step up in time and perform well, otherwise the team's performance may be affected.

Maybe it's the influence of the Europa League, or maybe I don't want to make it too obvious, which aroused the resentment and even rebound of domestic fans, but it has subsided a little recently.

When Wu Dong and his party arrived at the club, the team was full of excitement, and the players' fighting spirit was very high.

After all, he is about to participate in European competitions, no matter which player it is, it is a performance stage that cannot be ignored.

Young players and players who are in their prime want to enter the sights of the five major league teams through the Europa League, thereby entering the mainstream European football circle.

As for the veterans, they also want to use the platform of the Europa League to express to the public that they are not completely old and can continue to play.

In short, being able to participate in the UEFA Europa League is of great benefit to the club's ups and downs, and naturally all positive emotions are high.

Not to mention, the team's performance in the league itself is quite good, and it is even the leader at this time.

If you can maintain this result until the end of the season, you can directly participate in the Champions League. That is the real big stage.

Don't look at the team's full-back Sun Xiang who participated in the Champions League match, and even played in the quarter-finals, but at that time he was just a substitute for the team.

If he can participate in the UEFA Champions League as a main player and perform to a certain extent, he may be able to be a main player or a main rotation player in the middle and lower reaches of the five major leagues.

Of course, right now, I'm just thinking about it. Whether I can do it can only be done one game after another. The ambitions of the players have been fully aroused...
