my movie years

Chapter 175 Young people are so cool!

Tianmi Film and Television Production Company, Cai Runping and Da Mimi sat in the office with sad faces.

"It's not that simple behind this matter. There are rumors on the Internet that the boss is inflated and the company is going downhill." Cai Runping frowned.

"Have you told Zhang Hao about this?" Da Mimi asked.

"No," Cai Runping shook her head and said, "I haven't told the boss yet, I don't want him to be distracted by this matter."

"That's right, you've done a good job. Zhang Hao is filming Batman. Don't let him be distracted now." Da Mi Mi frowned and thought about it, thinking about a solution.

Because Zhang Hao took the team to Hollywood, Guo Fan, who has independent film directing experience, also went to study and served as Zhang Hao's deputy.

So at this time, there are no new projects in the company, and it is completely supported by the previous capital.

The reason why she didn't notice it was because Zhang Hao's savings were so rich that Cai Runping ignored the crisis, and it would be revealed as soon as the partner withdrew.

The withdrawal of Wanda and Huayi is not as simple as it seems on the surface, involving many aspects of the company's business.

Take Zhou Yutong as an example. After Wanda and Huayi announced that they would not cooperate with the company, the position of the second female lead in a youth movie that was originally scheduled was immediately rejected. This is the chain reaction brought about by this incident.

Similarly, newcomers signed by the company are faced with the dilemma of insufficient resources.

In addition, Tianmi Film and Television Production Company holds a large amount of funds and urgently needs to find other investment projects, but Tianmi Film and Television Production Company is rejected by popular investment projects.

This is a very serious problem. As a newly established company, the whole company is supported by Zhang Hao's projects, so it urgently needs other profit points.

Da Mimi has always been a little girl in front of Zhang Hao, but she is not stupid at all, on the contrary she is very smart.

Da Mimi analyzed: "It is reasonable to say that even if Zhang Hao did not make a lot of money in a movie, it would not trigger such a large-scale divestment wave. Obviously someone is instigating it."

As for who it is, Da Mi Mi knows who it is without guessing.

Although Zhang Hao is a good leader of the new director, but in terms of the management of personal connections, he is no match for his decades-old management.

Moreover, in this magical land of China, ability is not very important in many cases, but qualifications and status are more important.

Although Zhang Hao has passed his 26th birthday and has never failed in filming, his seemingly too young qualifications still make the old people in the circle instinctively feel distrust.

This is not an exception, but a common phenomenon.

To be a star, of course it is good to be young and handsome, but as a director, being young and handsome has turned from an advantage to a disadvantage.

Society is changing, and the entertainment industry is also changing, but these people still control most of the resources in the entertainment industry, and their concepts are still old.

Zhang Hao had achieved great success in the past, and these people were skeptical, but they couldn't say anything.

But as long as there is a slight setback like this time, even if it is insignificant, even if the project is still profitable, it will be enough to induce these people to distrust Zhang Hao.

This is the root cause of this wave of divestment. Zhang Hao is too young, and it always makes people feel that he has no hair on his mouth and can't do things well.

And what Zhang Hao did was too radical, always trying new things, and acting boldly.

Being old means being conservative and unwilling to change. When Zhang Hao is leading the film industry to carry out new trends and changes, the old party of the era naturally looks down on Zhang Hao.

As everyone knows, it is not Zhang Hao who is changing, but the times are changing, but the direction of Zhang Hao's change is different from what they see, so it looks different.

Once the problem is found, it must be solved, so Da Mi Mi intends to find a way in this regard.

Of course, it's not to please those veterans in the circle, that way Zhang Hao has to be submissive and accept their arrangements.

Based on Da Mi Mi's understanding of Zhang Hao, it is impossible for Zhang Hao's personality to tolerate someone pointing fingers at him and meddling in his projects.

So Da Mimi asked Cai Runping: "How much money is available on the company's books?"

"A lot, you can see for yourself!" Cai Runping handed the financial statement to Da Mimi.

Da Mi Mi looked at it and said in surprise: "So many? It's enough to make five or six "Butterfly Effect"."

"That's all, and soon there will be copyright income from "The Butterfly Effect". It doesn't matter if they withdraw, and the income from the company's projects will belong to them in the future." Cai Runping joked.

In fact, Tianmi Film and Television Production Company will still look for new partners in the future. After all, in the entertainment industry, it is impossible to fight alone.

Da Mimi is very satisfied, and the funds are sufficient, so Da Mimi said: "Let's find a way to find new profit points first, and do the project by ourselves."

"How?" Cai Runping asked.

Da Mimi had wanted to do it a long time ago, and it was logical at this time: "Zhang Hao mentioned it to me a long time ago, and I have also accepted a few projects, let's do this one first."

Cai Runping opened it, and the four characters of "Ancient Sword and Strange Tan" came into view.

As I said before, the entertainment industry is not monolithic, and those established film and television production companies do not trust Zhang Hao because of Zhang Hao's age.

As for Shao Cong, he was simply annoyed by his father's nagging, so of course he didn't want to cooperate with Zhang Hao.Instead, he wants to compete with Zhang Hao and prove that he is the best one.

But emerging entertainment companies don't have that concern, especially the adventurous Internet companies, which hit walls everywhere after entering the entertainment industry.

Because resource projects are all dominated by established companies, they can hardly find an opportunity to cut in.

However, this wave of divestment has allowed the film and television production companies under these Internet giants to see opportunities.

You are worried that Zhang Hao will not be able to do things well when he is young, but we will not. Youth is an advantage.Taking a ten thousand step back, if Zhang Hao's company goes down the street, it will save trouble.

I directly bought Tianmi Film and Television Production Company, this company has so many high-quality copyrights, and let Zhang Hao work for us, wouldn't it be flattering?

This wave of abacus was crackling so loudly that Zhang Hao could hear it across the Pacific Ocean.

He is far away in North America, out of reach, and communicated with him after Da Mimi and Cai Runping discussed the solution.

"You guys have done a good job, very good." Zhang Hao very much approved of Da Mi Mi's plan.

"Then the company will start the project of "Gu Jian Qi Tan", and I will be the leading actor and producer." Da Mi Mi was very excited to hear that Zhang Hao supported her idea.

"Go ahead, I support you. As for Penguin Films and Ali, let's get in touch first." Zhang Hao said.

"Okay," Da Mi Mi nodded in agreement, and then asked another thing: "By the way, can you come back for this year's Golden Horse Awards?"

Zhang Hao thought about the itinerary, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid not, you can represent me to participate!"

"Okay..." Da Mimi instantly had a plan in his mind, what to say if he won the award.

Under Zhang Hao's instructions, Tianmi Film and Television Production Company contacted Penguin, and a strange phenomenon emerged: most of the established entertainment companies planned to wait and see, but the Internet capital that had just entered the entertainment industry actively cooperated with Tianmi Film and Television. Contact the production company.

But as soon as they got in touch, Penguin revealed their ambitions. They planned to directly acquire Tianmi Film and Television Production Company.

It is not difficult to understand that the newly established Penguin Films is completely new to the industry, without any experience in film and television production.

If Tianmi Film and Television Production Company can be acquired, it means that with these production experiences and a group of mature talents, they can reach the sky in one step.

But what Penguin didn't expect was that Tianmi Film and Television Production Company flatly rejected the acquisition proposal, saying that they are not short of money, cooperation is possible, and acquisition is negligible.

Because it is not a listed company, the operation of Tianmi Film and Television Production Company does not need to be disclosed to the public, so Penguin made a mistake in its judgment, thinking that Tianmi Film and Television Production Company encountered a financial crisis, so it was anxious to find a partner.

In fact, this is wrong. Tianmi Film and Television Production Company is not in a financial panic, but a resource panic.

Having money but no resources, not being able to spend it is the dilemma facing Tianmi Film and Television Production Company.

But now that Da Mi Mi is determined to produce TV drama projects and create resources by himself, this dilemma no longer exists.

The reason why we urgently need to seek cooperation with other companies is nothing more than revealing a message to the outside world: our company is fine, and those who want to cooperate can continue to discuss cooperation, and there are many friends and multiple paths.

But this friend wants to be a dad?This is not possible, because Tianmi Film and Television Company is not short of money, and now it is not short of projects.

Although after the production of the TV drama project is completed, there will still be problems in the channel, but that will be something later.

It was such a wrong judgment that made Penguin's acquisition ambition stillborn.

But it doesn't matter, if the acquisition fails, everyone can still be friends. We Penguin are very good friends of your Tianmi Film and Television Production Company.

When a friend is in trouble, I naturally want to help my friend, but it is only natural to ask for something in return.

Therefore, Penguin Films proposed a VAM agreement. If the requirements of the VAM agreement cannot be fulfilled, Penguin Films will be given the corresponding shares of Tianmi Film and Television Production Company.

Cai Runping, who was in charge of the contact, flatly rejected Penguin, saying that she would not agree to the gambling agreement.

"Why? Mr. Cai, this VAM agreement is completely beneficial to the cooperation of both parties. Why are you so resistant?" The head of Penguin who was in charge of the negotiation was quite puzzled.

Cai Runping said frankly: "Our boss is Zhang Hao. Director Zhang really hates the so-called VAM agreement. He doesn't want any company to interfere with his project."

"But this VAM agreement does not interfere with Zhang Dao's project. As long as we sign the VAM agreement, both of us will have a foundation of trust, and the future cooperation will be fine."

"What if it can't be completed? The one-year profit requirement is too outrageous. If you can't complete the VAM agreement, you will need 50.00% of the company's shares. You might as well initiate an acquisition." Cai Runping curled her lips.

She is not a fool, she will not believe the nonsense of these Internet capitals.

In the face of Cai Runping, who is not in the oil and salt, the person in charge of Penguin has nothing to do, and this curve acquisition plan has also declared bankruptcy.

For the penguins who believe in winner-take-all, Zhang Hao's win-win cooperation is obviously not in line with their strategy.What win-win cooperation?I just want myself to win.

That's why Penguin, in the name of cooperation, found this opportunity and planned to acquire Tianmi Film and Television Production Company.

This is the same as what they do in the game industry, buy first, suppress if they can't buy, and then their own company immediately plagiarizes, launches new projects, and crushes the original version.

Relying on this set of rogue strategies, Penguin has become a giant in the domestic game industry, and it is also hated by players.

But this set of strategies seems to have encountered some trouble in the entertainment industry, because the film and television production industry is not an industry that relies on copying codes and then relying on its own channel advantages in the social field to achieve success.

You can copy and copy, and you can follow the trend, but there is no one in Penguin who can meet the future, and it is impossible to predict the future direction, so finding industry veterans has become a necessary choice.

Zhang Hao was the first to catch his eyes.

This director is really special. In the current environment of the entertainment industry, Zhang Hao is like a maverick flower, blooming beautifully, tempting penguins to pick him.

If Penguin knew the future, it would not have contacted Zhang Hao at all, and would directly start a small fresh meat draft and start a traffic drama.

Doing these things can make a lot more money than Zhang Hao, who is struggling to do big projects, and he can keep making stars and harvesting leeks, which is very flattering.

It's a pity that Penguin didn't expect this, so after launching various routes to acquire Tianmi Film and Television Production Company, they planned to cooperate with Tianmi Film and Television Production Company first.

Zhang Hao also has no objection, let's cooperate first to see, Penguin's appearance in the film and television industry is not as ugly as in the game industry.

To do the necessary supervision, Penguin is a good help.

You know, a movie is not just a movie, especially if it's a big project.A movie project can derive a variety of peripherals, such as drama series, games, animation, books, theme parks and so on.

In this Chinese-language film circle whose timeline has been changed by him, these peripheral profit points will be areas that Zhang Hao will focus on in the future.

But in these fields, relying on his Tianmi Film and Television Production Company and cooperating with Bona Films cannot promote them.

The progress of the industrial chain requires the participation of multiple parties, and Penguin is undoubtedly a good taker.Penguin has a wide channel advantage and a huge amount of funds, and Zhang Hao feels at ease with Penguin's money to open the way.

Some people always say that it is unrealistic to develop these peripheral industries in China and will lose money.

But that's because they didn't do it, and they thought it was not feasible, just like saying that grapes are sour because they can't eat grapes.

If you haven't done anything, how can you know it won't work?
And this is not to spend Zhang Hao's money, but to use the hands of Penguin to expand. If it succeeds, it doesn't need to be said by Zhang Hao, smart capital will pour in frantically, and expand the surrounding market at the fastest speed.

It failed, anyway, instead of spending his own money, it just happened to throw out the notorious Internet capital Penguin, and he continued to make movies to make money by himself.

Anyway, it's a good deal.

Ever since, after several rounds of negotiations, Cai Runping received instructions from Zhang Hao and signed a 1+4 cooperation proposal with Penguin.

Penguin Pictures will participate in the next project of Tianmi Film and Television Production Company, and has the priority investment rights for the next four projects.

Tianmi Film and Television Production Company asked Penguin Films not to interfere with the creative requirements of Tianmi Film and Television Production Company, and Penguin Films requested to supervise the production of the project.

After a bit of arguing between the two parties, Tianmi Film and Television Production Company agreed to the supervision of Penguin Films, but it was not allowed to interfere in core project areas such as casting and content creation.

At the same time, Tianmi Film and Television Production Company will also communicate with Penguin Pictures about the situation in the core areas of the project, so that Penguin Pictures will know about these situations.

So after Wanda and Huayi withdrew, Penguin Pictures immediately took over and became a partner of Tianmi Film and Television Production Company.

The first project of the cooperation between the two parties is "Gu Jian Qi Tan" led by Da Mi Mi as the producer.
