China Entertainment started from art school

Chapter 329 is an ace drama!
"Wow, what a wonderful story!"

Finally finished watching the first episode, and after the subtitles appeared, everyone woke up like a dream.There was also a burst of warm applause in the conference room.

"Very good, great pace, great actors. The suspense at the end is also very attractive - this will definitely be a very good series!"

"The director did a great job, and the colors are very retro, which is really attractive."

"The heroine has a cool personality, and the direction of the story is also very attractive. This should be a growth storyline, right?"

"I call it an 'upgraded cool drama'."

"The special effects board inside is also very cool. This setting is very attractive, and I think users will definitely like this setting."

After watching the film, the conference room was very heated. Many people asked Li Jingkun and director Scott Frank questions, and they answered them one by one.

The beginning of this TV series is surprisingly good, and everyone is basically quite satisfied with their feelings. Now the main concern is whether the following parts can maintain the same quality and rhythm as this episode.

Li Jingkun and Scott Frank naturally said that they would definitely complete this work within the specified time, and they would bring it here as soon as possible to show them.

Then Reed Hastings immediately told the others: "Then you can start promoting now. You guys should come up with a promotional plan as soon as possible. This will be a very exciting and attractive series. The promotional aspect must be Well done, I believe it will be our another ace drama!"

It's a pity that it can't be made into a series like "Stranger Things", otherwise this series will definitely earn more profits and traffic.

But it's okay, there are still two projects with Li Jingkun, an excellent collaborator!

And since he is so powerful and likes their company so much, he can definitely continue to cooperate in the future!
Money is no problem!

Then it was almost here, and then they broke up the meeting and let everyone go out to work and rest.

However, Reed Hastings and the two operating officers still stayed with Li Jingkun and the director, and they were going to continue to rest and relax at Netflix's coffee shop.

As a way to enhance the relationship, you can also talk about other things by the way.

"To be honest, I'm really satisfied and surprised with today's content. You guys did a great job!"

After arriving at the coffee shop, many employees here were already chatting and working here. They greeted them a little when they saw them coming, and then many people looked at Li Jingkun and Scott Frank curiously. After all, this The two are unfamiliar faces here.

But what is certain is that these two are definitely boss-level figures, otherwise it would be impossible for the three bosses of Netflix to accompany them!
After several people sat down, they each ordered a cup of coffee, and then the founder reaffirmed their achievements and said that it would be a pleasure to cooperate with them.

Li Jingkun and the director are also very happy. If things go well, everyone will be happy.

Later, they also talked about the projects of "Dark Glory" and "Money House". Li Jingkun told them about the progress, and both TV series can be launched in the next year.

Then Li Jingkun took the initiative to mention Netflix's project in Bangziguo. Now they have confirmed that the TV series project there is a hit, but the movie project is okay.At present, we are summing up experience to find a new way out, and we are also starting to produce new episodes.

Li Jingkun said: "Bangziguo's film and television industry is still very good, and their love dramas are also very powerful and famous, but it may be impossible to arouse great popularity and enthusiasm around the world. Because each country's love concept They are all different, and the rhythm is different.

Some people have said that if the plot of one of their TV series is included in the Omi series, it will basically be finished in one episode.The men and women on their side talk about a relationship, and they are still going around after dozens of episodes, misunderstanding each other or something. In the Omi TV series, the hero and heroine may have sex in the first episode. "

"Hahaha."

What Li Jingkun said was very interesting, and everyone sympathized with it, so they all laughed.

But Li Jingkun didn't laugh, he continued: "So it's not good to shoot the subjects they were originally good at, and they have to change to other subjects."

Greg Peters said: "Thriller, novelty, excitement, cool stuff?"

"Yes, of course, this type is more interesting to everyone."

Reed Hastings nodded: "Actually, of course we also know this. The question we are considering now is, can they shoot things with this kind of subject over there? Can they shoot things with oriental faces? Everyone loves it?"

Li Jingkun said: "Isn't the "Paper Money House" we are preparing and producing right now? We will know the result soon!"

Of course Reed Hastings and the others knew this, so they nodded again.

"So you're interested in things from Bangzi Country?"

"Yes, I am very interested in their entertainment industry, talents, and social environment, so I plan to focus on development there. In fact, I have cooperated with them a few years ago, and this year also, I am already developing another movie project."

Reed Hastings looked at the two product officers, and then he said to Li Jingkun: "I remember you bought a lot of Netflix shares?"

"Ha, yes. I have great confidence in your company. In recent years, your performance has been very good, and the stock price has risen very fast, right? Otherwise, why would I choose to cooperate with you?"

Reed Hastings laughed: "Yeah, so I was wondering if we could go a little further together?"

"for example?"

"For example, we can jointly develop projects on Bangziguo. Didn't you say that before? I really like our company's global platform. If there is a good project, whether it is a movie or a TV series, it must be placed on our side It's better to bring out their full power, isn't it?

For another example, if you still want to increase the number of shares in Netflix, we can also help you achieve it. "

They finally started talking about this topic, and Li Jingkun was very happy.

Hehe, isn't that what he's been waiting for?

······
Is Netflix awesome?Of course it's awesome.

But they are not the only streaming media platforms that are popular in the United States.

The United States is the same as China. There are also many online video platforms in China, such as Aiqiyi, Penguin Video, Kuku.com, etc., while Omi’s is oriented to the world, and the competition will only increase.

For example, Prime Video, Showtime, HULU, Disney+, CBS All Access, etc. The list is very long, and many platforms are comparable in size and market value to Netflix; they have always been each other’s biggest competitors——

Users only have so much money in their pockets and only so much time, and if they subscribe to one platform, they generally have no way to order another.

This is why in the original time and space, Netflix had to spend a lot of money to buy the online broadcast rights of "Knives Out"; because the competition is also very high, they don't use their strengths, and they don't spend a lot of money to collect more. What if the user ran away?
So back to the original question, why did Li Jingkun choose to cooperate with Netflix before?

In fact, the main reason is that he knows that in the original time and space, they will have a lot of hot styles in the next few years, which is more suitable for him to contact and enter the game.

But Netflix doesn’t know. Just like other entertainment companies, they are constantly looking for good talents, good projects, good development paths, etc.And it's not without failure. In fact, they often hit the street along the way.

It's just that it is successful in the long run, but it has also experienced a lot of hardships and sufferings.

But now there is actually a very good talent and opportunity in front of them - that is Li Jingkun.

Their previous successful experience made them trust him, so they cooperated with him on three projects in one go.

Later, it was discovered that he had a good relationship with Shimen and Disney, and they both had a deep cooperative relationship; it proved that his strength was certified by many companies.

Now "The Queen's Gambit" is also out, and the quality is surprisingly good, so they have to consider further binding him - Omi has too many powerful film and television companies!
Li Jingkun can find others to cooperate with at any time!

If they don't start early, who knows which big company he will cooperate with after a while?

So now that Li Jingkun has a good relationship with them and is also very interested in Netflix, it is natural to start from here-isn't it just spending money, the most important thing they lack is actually money.

If you can spend money to bind a huge resource pool, no one will be willing to pay.

It's like Hairun Film and Television sold her shares at an unprecedented low price in order to bind Zhao Xiaodao and prevent her from running away.This fact is all too common.Including large companies, in order to retain management talents, they will also give low prices, and even give certain shares to senior talents such as CEOs and COOs.

Of course, Li Jingkun can spend his own money to buy more Netflix stocks, but this is relatively expensive, and there is a critical point for retail investors. If it exceeds a certain amount, if it is found that someone seems to be maliciously buying their company's stock, the board of directors Shareholders will definitely make a move.

Li Jingkun didn't come to cause trouble, so naturally he followed the normal process to achieve his goal as much as possible.

So far, the effect is still good.

······
As time goes by, the popularity of Liu Tianxian's music album continues to increase.At present, several songs are on the hot song charts of many platforms.Several songs were shortlisted in the top ten list alone, such as "Countdown", "Like a Fish", "Bird and Cicada" and "It's You" and so on.

And not only is it so popular on the music platform, many songs are also very popular on the short video platform like "Stars and Seas", and many people use it.

The popularity of the album made Liu Tianxian's reputation soar again, and the exposure rate was extremely high.

In addition, she was just praised by the official a while ago, and there have been a lot of commercial performances recently, and some advertising endorsements that she has never cooperated with before have also come into contact with her.

After all, the official certification means that she will not have any real black material before, and the chance of thunderstorms is relatively low;
The explosive popularity of music indicates that there will still be strong exposure and appeal in the future, not to mention that there are several big productions waiting for her, so maybe now is the cheapest time to find her!

It's just that Liu Tianxian couldn't accept everything. For example, he refused variety shows again, but he was considering invitations to the Spring Festival Gala of several TV stations.

There are a lot of good works now, don’t worry about having to sing "Decent" again, now I am worrying about which songs to sing...

······
Li Jingkun did not return to China after leaving the country of America, but went directly to the country of Bangzi.

There are a lot of things this time, one is to follow up the preparations for "Extreme Escape", and the other is to meet with the company's people from time to time with several clothing brands to talk about the placement of "Dark Glory" advertisements.

The last one is also more important. He has already "joined" Netflix for a while, and will first act as one of the heads of the Bangziguo studio. He will temporarily be a deputy general manager, with salary and dividends.

At the same time, the head office will gradually allow Li Jingkun to increase his shareholding in the company.But of course he still needs to spend money to buy these stocks, and the price is actually not low.

At this stage, he feels that it is almost enough to get Netflix stocks with a market value of about 1 million meters. He will consider applying for an increase in holdings again after projects such as "Queen's Gambit" are successful.I believe that in order to keep him, his intention to increase his holdings will be smoother.

In fact, if it is purely for buying stocks to make money, there are many companies in the market that will rise sharply in the next few years. Not to mention, many stocks such as medical, biological, and pharmaceutical stocks will skyrocket in the future. As long as he buys some of them, he can make money. to great wealth.

But for him who is not worried about money at present, it is meaningless to simply make money, and of course there are many reasons why he plans to become one of Netflix's minority shareholders.

In addition to making money, he can also obtain and produce those future hit products more justifiably.

The second reason is that as a minority shareholder of the streaming media platform, he can also feed back to Longqi Film and Television Company in the future, making its walls stronger and its blood volume stronger, so that the stock will not fall when the film and television industry is in a downturn. too serious.

While working in Bangziguo, he also meets some friends from Bangziguo from time to time, such as Kim Bella and Lin Yuner and so on.

Lin Yuner was very grateful to him for suddenly giving her a heroine project, saying that it was a very pleasant surprise.

It happened that he was working here for a while, so I invited him out for dinner and thanked him a lot.

The Thigh Times concert has long ended, and their company announced the news that three members would not renew their contracts more than a month ago. Currently, there are only 5 members left in their organization.

However, the company announced that the era of thighs has not been disbanded, and the remaining 5 people will continue to carry out activities under the name of "era of thighs", but how can the combination of 5 people become the age of thighs?

This is simply deception. Not only do other people look different, but their own fans don't accept it, so it is a fact that their popularity and morale are greatly reduced now.

In addition, at the age of 28 and nine years old, they are no longer competitive in girl groups, so most of them have to try their best to transform in the future, and try to change to the status of actors.

And at this time, Lin Yun'er received a movie heroine project non-stop, she was naturally very happy, and naturally felt more at ease than other members.

·······
Li Jingkun stayed in Bangzi Country for a period of time, and after dealing with almost everything, he returned to Kyoto and prepared to follow up his work in China.

But Bangziguo will definitely go there frequently in recent years, because now he is one of the managers of Netflix there, and he has to go to work from time to time.

Recently, Netflix has invested in a new project called "Kingdom".

Although this drama series that will explode in the future is not produced by him, it does not prevent Li Jingkun from continuing to be one of the directors, and he has to follow up on the "Kingdom" project occasionally - it is just a duty.

"Wow, the big star is back!"

These days Liu Tianxian is busier than Li Jingkun, and sometimes he only comes back after several days of business trips.

Recently, she has accepted some commercial performances, several commercials, and three invitations to the Spring Festival Gala.

Yes, there are 3 of them throughout!
But only the one on Mango TV is live, the other two are not; then the latter two just need to be recorded in advance.

"Awesome, then I can see you on three platforms at the same time during the Chinese New Year!"

"Haha, of course! Don't even look at who I am!"

The two haven't seen each other for a while this time, so they are too tired to meet now.At this time, they were hugging each other and talking.

Liu Tianxian said with a smile: "And you can sing different songs in the three places. I didn't know which song to choose before. Now I don't have to worry about it. I can sing several songs at the same time! Hahaha!"

"Doesn't that mean you have to practice several songs at the same time?"

"Yes...but it's okay. I have practiced these songs very well this year, and the two places are in recording mode. This is not difficult."

"Well, what song did you choose?"

""Sea of ​​Stars", "Countdown", "Like a Fish", "Bird and Cicada", "It's You" and so on. It's pretty good, all-round development, haha."

"Then you've gotten rich recently, how much money have you made?"

"That's right, there are a lot of zeros! I won't tell you how many, lest you get jealous!"

Liu Tianxian's income in the past year was indeed not bad.

Although there were not many works in 17, "Wolf Warrior 2" gave her a very high exposure rate.

She didn't participate in any variety shows, but she received a lot of commercial endorsements, and she participated in many commercial performances in the past year, singing "Decent" and so on.

Now is the era of high salaries for artists, and she is one of the two or three most popular actresses, so she still earned 17 million soft girls in 1; she got more than a dozen positions in the 2017 celebrity income list .

Of course, when the media talked about Liu Tianxian, they also added an extra sentence, this is the ranking without counting Longqi Film and Television stock, if stock income is counted.Liu Tianxian will definitely be the well-deserved number one!

Because she earned hundreds of millions of dollars just from the asset income of stocks, which star can compare with this?
And if stock income is counted, Mao Xiaotong, Gu Xiaona and others are also ranked high.But if it is only counted as work income, they will have nothing...

However, it is already the beginning of 18. If stocks are not counted this year, Liu Tianxian will probably book the top ten position in advance, because a music record has already brought her a good start.

She is very busy these days and earns a lot of money; plus she still has two works in production today, the total income will definitely be an astonishing amount by the end of the year.

"Ha ha."

Liu Tianxian's smug and obedient expression was so funny and cute, Li Jingkun couldn't help but started to use his mouth.

And he also especially likes to gnaw on her face and chin, because this face is very beautiful, and he wants to possess it; of course, there is also a reason for gnawing on her chin, but also because it is very meaty and tastes good.

"Hey! So much saliva!"

Liu Tianxian did not refuse his intimacy and mischief, but after a while she still pretended to be disgusted and buried her face in his arms, and wiped her face and chin indiscriminately.
