Early the next morning, Gu Wei sat at the dining table in the penthouse of [Jinmao Mansion] in the capital, eating breakfast and reading the news.

“The publicity aspect is pretty good, and the movie is highly discussed online~”

"You have a share of credit for this." Yang Mi beside him took a bite of a small golden fried dough stick and said.

Damimi was currently wearing a loose and baggy white men's shirt on his upper body. The buttons on the collar were buttoned down, revealing a large area of ​​snow-white skin.

The high waistline held up the men's shirt, and the hem hung at the top of the thighs. A pair of straight and slender legs were exposed, and it was impossible to tell whether he was wearing anything underneath.

The whole person looks lazy, sexy and full of temptation.

The more intense foreplay last night caused her not-so-strong skirt to be torn. When she got up from bed in the morning, she found a random shirt in Gu Wei's closet and put it on.

Fortunately, her home is downstairs, so she can just go back and change clothes later.

That night, Da Mi Mi fulfilled her previous promise to Gu Wei and tried her best, but she was very tired.

But she was quite satisfied. After all, this kind of thing was a two-way street. Even if she was trying to please Gu Wei, she still enjoyed it very much.

Sparkle Cinemas is incomparable to large theater chains such as Wanda and Jinyi, and Sparkle Media and Yaoying Distribution are also far behind the well-known production and distribution companies in the industry.

"It's not that exaggerated. It's just a few meetings held in several major cities."

"There shouldn't be any problem. The Hollywood blockbusters entering the country now have been weak since the second week, so it shouldn't have much impact." Yang Mi was a little unsure. She couldn't decide on these things, but she believed Since the company has set this schedule, there must be a reason for it.

The audience of Hollywood blockbusters is basically young people. It is difficult to mobilize the whole family to watch movies together like the best-selling domestic movies.

The publishing company of "Reverse Time Rescue" is "Beijing Yaoying Publishing". As you can tell from the name, it is affiliated to Yaolai Group.

Gu Wei nodded.

However, because it holds the big IP of Cheng Long, the "Yolai Series" is still very famous in the industry.

"Indeed, it has only been decided in the past two days. Are you so well-informed?" Gu Wei was a little surprised. He had just taken over the project of [Cohabitation in Time and Space], and he didn't expect that even Yang Mi knew about it.

The box office pattern of Hollywood blockbusters in the past two years after they were released in mainland China is basically based on the first two weeks. The box office in the first two weeks is almost the final box office of the movie.

"Who made the decision to schedule your movie?

The first week of release was the strongest, but it was difficult to maintain momentum.

The release date of "Reverse Time Rescue" is this Thursday, which happens to be the second week of the release of "Transformer 5".

It's a pity that this closed loop is a small closed loop, and it has not achieved much results in any aspect.

[Yuolai Cinema], [Yuolai Media], and [Yuolai Distribution] are the troika of the "Yuolai Department", forming a commercial closed loop from production, distribution to theaters.

Aren’t you afraid of running into a schedule with [Transformers 5]? Gu Wei flicked his phone, reached for a bun and took a bite.

"Indeed, I just took a look. Yesterday, the box office was 5 million. The real-time box office today is less than million.

By Thursday, the box office will drop further, which will not pose any threat to other movies."

"After the premiere, you have to start a nationwide road show, right?"

Although today's Monday, the box office will definitely be in the evening, but according to past rules, it is difficult for the whole day's box office results to exceed 100 million.

"Hmph. It's not that I'm well-informed, but your film is getting more attention in the industry.

"I heard that you have recently taken on a new movie, is it a romance movie?" The two chatted for a while, and Yang Mi suddenly asked.

Especially this time, the filming is a romance film, involving the choice of the heroine, [Zhen Le Dao] did not keep it secret."

"Hehe." Gu Wei smiled and said nothing.

Yang Mi frowned slightly, looking at him with a somewhat sad look.

"Last month it was decided to star in [Do You Know] with Zhao Liying and there was a lot of fuss. This time Liu Yifei was chosen as the heroine.

Obviously I also sent you an invitation from my movie [Fuyao]."

Gu Wei was a little helpless.

"[Do You Know] is a play of [Noon Sunshine], Hou Hongliang chose Zhao Liying, and [Cohabitation in Time and Space] is a play of Xu Zheng. I am just an actor. I have no say in who I choose as the heroine."

Of course, Gu Wei said these words to evade. Although Yang Mi's "Fuyao" sold well and made a lot of money, its reputation was not as good as "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" in all aspects, let alone "Do You Know" .

Of course, the most important thing for him was to fulfill the promise he made to Zhao Liying, but it was hard to tell Da Mi Mi about this.

Yang Mi also knew in her heart that she was just showing off in front of Gu Wei, and only crying children could get lollipops, and she didn't mean to blame him.

"By the way, I heard that one of the investors of [Fuyao] is [Perfect Film and Television]. Jiaxing and Perfect Film have been very close recently." Gu Wei casually changed the subject.

"It's normal. When Li Juan was at PricewaterhouseCoopers, he participated in the [Perfect World] financing project as a staff member of the investor and has certain connections there.

After coming to Jiaxing, with the help of past contacts, I naturally developed a relationship with Perfect. Now that Jiaxing is developing so well, Perfection also intends to expand its pan-entertainment strategic layout and want to catch the express train of Jiaxing."

[Perfect World] is China's first game company to independently develop 3D game engines and occupies a wide market share in multiple fields such as client games, mobile games, console games, VR games, and cloud games.

It is also the exclusive operator of well-known e-sports products [Dota 2] and [Counter-Strike: Global Offensive] (CS) in mainland China.

[Perfect Video] is one of the subsidiaries of [Perfect World]. Backed by a parent company that is not short of money, it began to develop in 08 and has rapidly grown into a large-scale pan-entertainment platform in the industry.

The main business covers variety show columns, entertainment marketing, artist management, performance and event management, derivative brokerage business, movie theater chains and other sectors.

The more famous film and television works such as "Let's Get Married", "The Old Man", "BJ Youth", "Men's Gang", "Legend of Chu and Han", "Legend of Lu Zhen", etc. have all participated perfectly.

Of course, most of the time he is just one of the investors, the one who provides the money.

After Reba signed in Jiaxing, the first TV series in which she was the heroine, "Spicy Transformation", was invested and produced by "Perfect Film and Television".

It was 15, when Li Juan first came to Jiaxing Media.

"It has been more than a year since Jiaxing signed a gambling agreement with [Shangshi Pictures]. I have seen Jiaxing's financial report last year. The company's net profit exceeded 1 million yuan!

There is still one year left, and the profit target of less than 5000 million is left. It should be very easy to achieve it.

[Jiaxing Media] The current financial indicators are considered very good among all media companies in the entire entertainment industry.

It seems that [Perfect Film and Television] is thinking about raising funds.”

Although Gu Wei joined, Perfect had already had a cooperative relationship with Jiaxing before he joined. Coupled with the relationship with the financial director Li Juan, Jiaxing's development momentum was as good as before. Perfect wanted to raise funds again. It has also become a matter of course.

"This is a good thing. Only by working together can we make the cake bigger. After you joined, you brought two projects to the company: "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" and "You Are My Glory".

After [Shangshi Pictures] relied on [Shanghai Media Group] for the last round of financing, although it signed a gambling agreement, the resources given to the company were not lacking at all.

Now that [Jiaxing Media] can develop so well, it is indispensable for everyone to work together."

Yang Mi is very tolerant. She is not good at capital operation, so she believes that professional matters should be left to professionals.

The company's several rounds of financing are indeed getting better and better, and Zeng Jia has always emphasized to her that only continuous financing can make it bigger and stronger, so she naturally thinks so.

"Financing is good. Nowadays, no big company in the entertainment industry is raising funds. After all, business owners regard listing as their ultimate goal. I believe the same is true for Zeng Jia."

Hearing what Gu Wei said, Yang Mi looked at his face and raised an eyebrow.

"Not necessarily. The scale and profitability of [Wei Tianxia] are much greater than [Jiaxing Media]. I heard that people in investment banks are almost crossing the threshold of owning a company, and I don't see you letting up."

Gu Wei smiled.

"It's different. I'm not short of money. I started the company solely with the intention of serving me alone. Later, by chance, it developed better and better.

Financing is completely unnecessary for me." As he said this, Gu Wei thought of something.

“You still remember the one [ByteDance] that raised money last year, and it’s going to raise money again this year.

Compared with this, the little money the entertainment company gets after financing is nothing.

It feels good to be a dictator and speak for yourself.

And I don’t have to help others make money, right? "

Gu Wei spoke calmly, but there was always a hint of aura in his words.

Yang Mi next to him could hear his teeth itching.

Of course she knew that [ByteDance], last year's Series D valuation had exceeded 10 billion US dollars, which made her surprised and envious for a while.

Now that [Douyin] is developing so well, its valuation must have been greatly improved.

"I know you're great, young master. You belong to the entertainment industry and you belong to a rich family. You've been dealing with dimensionality reduction since your debut. Children like us ordinary people can only climb up the ladder little by little. We can't compare with you."

Yang Mi didn't know about Gu Wei's family situation, and she didn't ask about it, but looking at Gu Wei's experience along the way, he must have a different background.

She always felt that Gu Wei's exaggerated net worth must have a family behind it.

"Sister Mi is joking, I also come from an ordinary family." Gu Wei told the truth, but Yang Mi's expression clearly showed disbelief.

Gu Wei was also helpless and didn't intend to explain anything.

"By the way, Sister Mi, maybe it's not necessary, but I still want to say something to you.

No matter how big Jiaxing Media develops, I have always felt that you are the backbone of the company. No matter how we raise money in the future, as long as the two of us agree on the same opinion and according to the shares, you will have absolute say in the company! "

Yang Mi nodded thoughtfully after hearing Gu Wei's words.
