China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 432 430. Development of the entertainment industry

At the beginning of 09, I want to ask who is the most popular person.

Almost most people would say that the "I really don't have this" part in the sketch "Not Short of Money" is a small loss.

Or maybe it's the magician who became famous under Dong Qing's praise.

Or maybe Jay Chou and Song Dynasty performed a combined version of "Compendium of Materia Medica" and "Hot Girl" on the Spring Festival Gala.

Although these people are popular, the most talked about person is Feiyu's boss Cao Yucao.

It was the first to break the billion-dollar box office record in China, and was nominated for an Oscar. The company also sponsored the Spring Festival Gala, and its popularity and discussion online have remained high.

In Chang'an, a relatively well-to-do family, Jing Tian hid in his room, listening to the noise of his parents outside because of trivial matters, and felt a little regretful about going home.

"If I had known I wouldn't have come back, maybe I could go see my seniors during the Chinese New Year."

Although she had been accustomed to the noise outside since she was a child, listening to it now still felt very harsh.

She took out her mobile phone, opened a candid photo of Cao Yu, and said to herself: "The senior is so gentle and kind. I shouldn't have any quarrels with him in the future."

While watching, the door was pushed open and my mother walked in with an angry look on her face.

"Tiantian, if mom and dad separate, who will you follow?"

Faced with this kind of soul torture, Jing Tian raised his head and looked at his mother in confusion for a while before saying, "I have grown up and I can be independent!"

Jing Tian's mother still felt very sorry for her daughter. Seeing her daughter say this, she suddenly felt that the little girl had grown up.

He sat next to his daughter, hugged Jingtian gently, and sighed: "I'm sorry, it's the Chinese New Year, and I let you see mom and dad quarreling."

"got used to."

Jing Tian said this and was about to put his phone away when his mother saw the photos on her phone.

"This is... your boyfriend?"

"Yes, my boss."

Jing Tian's mother originally saw that the man in the photo was quite handsome and looked familiar, so she thought he was her daughter's boyfriend, but she didn't expect it to be her boss.

Just as he was disappointed, he noticed the strange look in his daughter's eyes and asked, "Do you like him?"

"Um"

To his mother, Jing Tian did not deny it and nodded: "Our boss is very nice."

"No wonder he looks familiar. It turns out he's the one who sang at the New Year's Eve party. He seems to have acted in several TV series."

Jingtian's mother remembered who the man her daughter liked, and smiled and said, "My Tiantian is so beautiful. As long as he is good to others and not like your father, you can pursue her with confidence and boldness."

Jing Tian said sadly, "But he already has a girlfriend."

"She's just a girlfriend. As long as she's nice to her, don't be like your dad, you can pursue her boldly!"

"Well, he is very kind."

With her mother's support, Jing Tian immediately gained confidence.

After his mother left, he immediately sent a message to Cao Yu: "Senior, happy New Year, I'm thinking of you."

At this time, Cao Yu had just finished watching Uncle Benshan's skit and was lying on the bed with Li Xiaoshu, talking thoughtful words.

Although not many people know his phone number, there has been almost no interruption of New Year greeting messages on his mobile phone since night.

He didn't bother to look. He held the woman in his arms, gently caressed the skin that glowed white under the light, and said, "Sister, what are your plans after the New Year?"

"It depends on how your boss Cao arranges this."

"Movies, TV series, you choose."

"I don't pick."

Unexpectedly, Li Xiaojiao said lazily: "Husband, just help me arrange it. I believe you. I think you made a good choice for the 'once a year' part of "If You Are the One"."

"Do you also want to do it once a year?"

"I didn't say that."

"You just said, we take it one year at a time, one year at a time."

Cao Yu smiled and held this beautiful and charming woman in his arms.

After a long time, the time passed from thirty to the first day of the first lunar month.

Cao Yu coaxed the satisfied Li Xiaoji to sleep, but he himself was not sleepy.

Although the script of "Detective Chinatown" has been written, it is still a bit early to film it within the next two years.

Cao Yu knows that the 09 movie market is still a year dominated by Hollywood blockbusters.

Blockbusters such as "Transformers 2", "Avatar", "Despicable Me", "2012", "Orphan" and "Fast and Furious 4" are released in turn.

In China, there are also "Into the Dust" and "On the Road" invested by ourselves, as well as "The Wind" and "October Siege" produced by other companies.

It is best not to overcome difficulties and focus on investing in TV series.

"But what kind of movie should we arrange for the young lady?"

Cao Yu glanced at the sleeping woman next to him, and suddenly had an idea: "Yes, let the little girl act in "October Siege", bring money to join the group, and then make a guest appearance in "People on the Road"."

Thinking of this, he lowered his head and kissed Li Xiaoshuo's forehead, and then reached for the phone.

There were a lot of New Year greeting messages, and Cao Yu opened them all with a smile.

Yang Shuxue: "Happy New Year"

Although there were only three words, Cao Yu could still imagine what she looked like when she sent the message.

Liu Yifei: "Brother Cao Yu, Happy New Year. I hope the first message in the New Year is from me. I wish you happiness every day in the new year."

Cao Yu looked at the time when the message was received. Sure enough, it was exactly two seconds past midnight.

"This girl has a sense of ceremony." Cao Yu looked at the time and found that it was already a little faster, so he didn't reply and continued to scroll down with a smile.

In addition to Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, Song Qian, Mao Xiaotong, Zhang Tiannai and others also sent blessing messages.

Even Shu Qi sent a message saying that she had time to talk about it.

After scrolling for a while, I finally saw Jing Tian's message. I found that it had been sent not long ago, so I sent it back.

"Do you still miss me during the New Year?"

As soon as this message was sent, Jing Tian actually replied: "I'm still thinking, senior, my parents had a fight all night over what kind of dumplings to make, and I regretted coming back."

"Hazy, is this all noisy?"

Although there are scenes on TV of couples quarreling over trivial matters, Cao Yu has never experienced it before. He smiled and replied: "There are no couples who don't quarrel. You have been filming outside for a long time, so you can spend time at home with them during the Chinese New Year."

"Well, I listen to the senior, but, senior, have you ever had a quarrel with sister Liu Yifei?"

"???"

When Cao Yu saw the news, he thought for a moment and realized that he usually didn't quarrel with girls, so he replied: "No, girls are there for love."

"Senior, you are so kind. I like you more and more."

"Haha, I got it, go to bed quickly, it's already one o'clock."

"Senior, go to bed early, good night."

Cao Yu finished sending the text message and lay on the bed.

In 08, with the rise of 3G smartphones in the online literature market, more and more people were reading novels on their mobile phones, so we could start planning to find a few good IPs to shoot.

Thinking about it, he hugged Li Xiaoshuo and slowly fell asleep.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Cao Yu quietly returned to his hometown in the provincial capital with his mother, daughter, and Li Xiaoshu.

This year he plans to spend a good New Year with his family, but of course he is afraid that other people will insist on coming to pay New Year greetings, causing unnecessary trouble.

Although it is said that wealth does not return home, it is like walking at night in brocade clothes.

But Cao Yu really didn't dare to show off now. He just accompanied his parents to visit his hometown, quietly paid homage to his ancestors, and then left in a hurry.

Who knows that Boss Cao is so famous now? If he were to make a big splash, he, a figure on the rich list, would have to alert the local leaders.

Regarding this, Cao Yu's parents now understand their son and have no objections to this itinerary.

After leaving his hometown, he took his family to Malaysia for a few more days, and the Spring Festival was over.

Just as everyone was slowly returning to work, the movie "If You Are the One" made a good start to the new year with a super high box office of 1.26 billion.

It is precisely because of this box office data that the discussion about Cao Yu has become heated again.

On his first day at work, Cao Yu just finished a meeting with several department managers in the company and was about to make a call to Mango Channel to finalize the "I Am a Singer" project when he received a call from Wang Zhonglei.

"Congratulations, Mr. Cao, have a great New Year."

"Mr. Wang, happy New Year, what can you do?"

"That's it. Today, a few friends got together and wanted to invite Mr. Cao to come over and sit down together in the evening. Let's have a drink together and talk about the development of the entertainment industry this year."

"The development of the entertainment industry?"

Cao Yu probably remembers that the entertainment industry did change a lot in 09, especially when capital began to enter the entertainment industry, which seems to have started from this year.

Those in the "Beijing circle" know the policies best, so there is no harm in going and taking a look.

After hesitating for a moment, he agreed: "Okay, see you in the evening."

After hanging up Wang Zhonglei's call, he negotiated with Mango Channel about "I Am a Singer" and asked the company to immediately form a variety show team and prepare for Mango Channel.

After finishing these tasks, he saw that it was still early, so he strolled to Liu Yifei's studio.

"What are you doing?"

Liu Yifei was busy settling accounts in the office. She was so serious that she didn't notice Cao Yu coming in.

Hearing Cao Yu's voice, she suddenly turned around, picked up the account book, and said with a smile: "Brother Cao Yu, "Night Club" made more than 30 million last year. Excluding the part given to the head office, my studio made a profit of 1,000. More than five million."

"This is a good start. What are your plans for this year?"

"I don't know. I discussed it with my mother during the Chinese New Year. If there is a low-cost movie script, we will continue to make it, or we will make a TV series."

"It's a good idea."

Cao Yu nodded and felt that this was the right direction: "Since the studio has achieved such results, I won't give you a script yet. You have to discover it yourself."

"Ah."

Although the little girl was a little worried without the support of Cao Yu's script, she also knew that she couldn't rely too much on her boyfriend, so she nodded obediently.

"But because my Sissi is so good-looking, let me give you a suggestion. You can look at any good novels in the past two years, buy the copyright, and then have someone write it into a script."

Cao Yu held Liu Yifei's hand and kissed it on the lips. Out of his love for the girl, he said, "There is a good book called "Wei Young: Ups and Downs" about a heroine. You can look for it."

"I heard about this book."

Liu Yifei reacted immediately and got up from Cao Yu's lap: "I'm going to find him now."

"Quite impatient."

Cao Yu looked at Liu Yifei who was leaving and thought to himself: "How far can this girl go after she works hard? Let's see if she can make Yu Chai Chai have no way out?"
