Chapter 528: Just Business
“Even if you don’t like this movie, please support us so that you can watch your favorite movies in the future and so that related industries and actors can survive. Whether it is free comments and likes, or the purchase of movie tickets, it is a great encouragement to us!”
"..."
Seeing such copy, even Mr. Yang, who was in the polar region, couldn't help but take off in embarrassment.
The Mag team is really bold in writing this kind of copy.
Crying weakness and pity are all here.
It's as if they were saying that Kuiguang Group and their company would go bankrupt because of the unfavorable ticket sales of this movie... The most important thing is that their attitude was very good. As long as there were comments or even likes, it was considered support, and it was not necessary to pay, which won a lot of goodwill.
On the contrary, although the other side seems to be very powerful, they always force themselves to stand on the commanding heights and talk big about some big principles that may not even be logically self-consistent, which is annoying to watch.
In the luxurious warm tent, Chang Zhiqing was warming herself by the stove and asked casually, "From what I see on these platforms, it seems that the other party's voice is louder?"
The two came to the polar regions for tourism, not for scientific research, so the living environment is actually very good.
Although you certainly won't get the treatment of a five-star hotel, and it's difficult to live in a fixed settlement all the time for the sake of visiting some animals or the scenery, tents can sometimes be made very luxurious.
This huge tent has a height that allows people to walk upright, a huge space, soft beds, a comfortable heating system, electrical appliances such as wifi, TV, computer power supply, solar panels and even a kitchen.
It is definitely not the shabby tent you find in a camping site where you torture yourself.
The thing Mr. Yang hates most when traveling is being too frugal.
In fact, there are many scenic spots and places that you can only experience once in a lifetime. It is meaningless to be stingy and calculative. If you really want to save money, it is better to reduce the frequency of travel and increase the quality of a single trip.
A vacation is one that is comfortable.
"Sometimes, the silent majority are the ones who really have power." Yang Ruoqian took a bucket of instant noodles and sat next to Chang Zhiqing. "The volume of voice on the Internet may not fully represent the direction."
Chang Zhiqing glanced at the instant noodles without moving her chopsticks. She was more interested in this topic: "What do you mean?"
"Because in the public opinion environment there, there are some things that cannot be said casually, because if they offend others, their speech is not protected by freedom." Yang Ruoqian said casually, "Many people show their tolerance when they are interviewed by TV stations, accepted telephone surveys, and filled out questionnaires. They all seem to be very tolerant."
"But once they are asked to vote and do something, they will follow their own ideas and support the side they want to support."
"Words may bring disaster to them, so they keep silent or even lie...But the money and choices they have are powerful, so when they finally make a decision, it often surprises people."
Since this kind of crazy extreme diversity has become correct, it is wrong to oppose them. If you talk nonsense, it is very easy for some people to make trouble at the workplace, or publicize it widely, causing the person who said it to lose his job.
Instead of talking nonsense, it is better to be practical and use the box office to stab them in the back.
Since we are inclusive, we must also tolerate these extreme diversities and not criticize them for silently paying for their favorite movies.
"They just want to extort some money." Chang Zhiqing glanced at the instant noodles again, "If they meet someone like you who would rather spend ten or a hundred times more than compromise, they will probably be devastated."
Yang Ruoqian ignored this and said, "If you want to eat, go ahead and eat."
"No, it's too fattening!" Chang Zhiqing refused decisively, "This thing is too high in calories! I'm not the type of person who can eat anything without gaining weight."
I haven't been controlling my diet during this period of traveling recently, so I need to improve my eating habits.
"Is it possible... that in such a cold environment, eating these won't make you fat?" Yang Ruoqian reminded, "Human body heating itself consumes a lot of energy."
Chang Zhiqing, who was not so determined to begin with, was immediately convinced: "That makes sense. I'll eat a bite and go outside to get some fresh air later... By the way, what are the crew doing now?"
In the icy snow, a mouthful of hot noodles made him feel full of happiness. Yang Ruoqian stretched and said, "It seems that we are about to finish the last shot, and we are finishing it now."
"Okay, you seem to want to go back." Chang Zhiqing said with a smile, "What do you say when you go back? Will you take over the management of the company again, or will you really just give up?"
From the announcement of their resignation to now, the two of them have been having a lot of fun, and several months have passed.
Maybe Yang Ruoqian was tired of playing and wanted to go back to work?
"No need for that." Yang Ruoqian said casually, "I took some time to look at the company's financial report for the most recent quarter. It's very stable. Shao Yiqi is doing a very good job as an employee. Let him continue to work until he dies suddenly."
The cost of shooting a movie seems to be a lot, but it happened that the YTG of Kuiguang Group won the championship, and various kinds of income poured in, and the expenses were easily absorbed by the income.
Moreover, the TV series adapted from the novels by the group were also very popular on various platforms, earning a lot of copyright fees.
The IP income alone is like a money printing machine.
After reaching a preliminary settlement or consensus with the group, other entertainment companies also gave the Kuiguang Group a lot of "benefits" in order to successfully advance into the international market.
Moreover, judging from Shao Yiqi's various decisions and behaviors, he basically adhered to Yang Ruoqian's usual operating routine.
If you have a new idea, just set up a department and recruit people. If it's successful, give them a raise, promotion and bonus. If it fails to make a profit, there will be no punishment.
Some departments are actually profitable even if they are making losses on paper.
The most typical example is the Leopard App - but looking at the latest financial reports, this department, which has been suffering from recurring losses, has recently shown signs of turning losses into profits.
Obviously, he is the head of a large department and is nominally on an equal footing with other senior executives. The performance calculation method does not entirely focus on how much money he makes. However, Yu Jingyu and her subordinates feel inferior to others and that they should prove themselves because the department is losing money all the time.
Therefore, despite such huge restrictions imposed by the group, they managed to fill the hole step by step by streamlining efficiency and selling VIP qualifications with pitifully few functions!
Seeing that others were in the same mess when managing the company, Yang Ruoqian was completely relieved. As long as there were no major problems, he would definitely not take care of the specific affairs anymore.
"No, at most I'll just hang around in the office." Yang Ruoqian laughed, "It's impossible for me to manage things."
"You're going to the office to play, right? Then where should I go?" Chang Zhiqing laughed angrily, "My office seems to have been vacated now. Has it become someone else's office?"
"It's okay, you can come to my office. Qi Mu won't come over now anyway."
"Then why not just stay at home!" "..."
……
a few days later.
On the endless polar plain, there is a very smooth ice runway.
Dozens of teams nearby, wearing thick warm clothes and carrying various equipment, were talking and laughing near the runway.
"I watched several scenes, and it really created a completely different civilization." One of the supporting characters said excitedly, "I feel like there will be a wave of fan fiction on the Internet recently!"
"Indeed, although the movie is long, the story it tells is just that short... I feel like there are still many worldviews that have not been unfolded. And I really want to know what the subsequent story will be."
"The movie only shows the story and conflict between the human advance team and the local civilization when they arrive on this planet. I really want to see what will happen after all humans arrive! The design of the spaceship is really great. In the universe, it is a giant spaceship that can accommodate tens of millions of people. After landing, it can be expanded into a city... There are industrial areas, residential areas, commercial areas and schools, which saves a lot of trouble in infrastructure construction."
“Even the traffic routes are complete, and it feels like this first part is just an appetizer.”
“Movie tickets are sure to sell well!”
"If it hadn't sold well, our entire team would have been doomed..."
While the actors were discussing enthusiastically, Yang Ruoqian and Chang Zhiqing were listening on the side.
Although the college entrance examination English is not that practical, and it is impossible for a translator to repeat what everyone says in this environment, it is still no problem to understand the general idea anyway.
"It seems that the actors are very confident about the movie. Why are you unhappy? I watched Liu Bifa's video before. He said that as long as the quality of the movie is up to standard, it will sell well. If the quality is excellent, it will be a world-class super hit."
Yang Ruoqian didn't care at all - no matter how much money he made, it had nothing to do with him: "Let it explode, it doesn't matter if it explodes."
"I calculated that the movie should be released worldwide on our way back." Chang Zhiqing continued, "I think a lot of people will be very nervous. Whether you will be praised or liquidated after you get off the plane depends on the box office performance of the movie on the first day."
Most of the old employees in China know that Yang Ruoqian is quite tolerant.
But this time the film was shot almost entirely by an international team, and those employees didn't dare to gamble whether they would be fired.
In their view, it is normal for things that do not make money to be cut.
Moreover, the closer it gets to the movie's release, the more intense the attacks on the movie by the diversified groups become. The group, which was already at a slight disadvantage, seems to be in a bad situation recently.
What if it affects the box office?
"This movie didn't make a dime at the box office, and the financial impact on the company and the group is minimal." Yang Ruoqian waved his hand, "The most important thing is to think about what to do next."
After the last shot was filmed, Yang Ruoqian organized a vacation for the entire crew, where they ate and drank to their heart's content and only dispersed after they had completely relaxed.
The movie was shown on the plane on the day I returned home.
However, the luxury business jet has its own small cinema, so you won’t miss any movie screenings.
While we were chatting, a plane appeared in the sky, circled and landed on the ice runway.
After the plane came to a stop, the entire crew got on the plane one after another and left the polar airport.
……
The filming of the movie "Avatar" has been completed and it has entered the final promotion and post-production process. The mutual attacks between the two sides on the Internet have become increasingly fierce.
In a company that specializes in providing "consulting services" to game companies and film and television production companies, all employees are busy with their own work.
Most of these employees are also quite diverse, and at first glance it is easy to mistake this for a gathering place for performance artists.
Of course, no matter how diverse the company is, it still has to make a profit. A cross-dressing man with blue skin and high heels came over and asked an employee, "Their movie is about to be released. How is your work progress?"
The employee being questioned did not look that radical, but his tone was full of confidence and pride: "On most platforms, we have suppressed the other side in public opinion! Now anyone who speaks for their movies will be besieged by many people. Unless something unexpected happens, no one will buy their movies."
"For this purpose, we conducted a special questionnaire, random interviews and telephone interviews, and the conclusion is that the number of people willing to buy movie tickets for Aveda is pitifully small."
After saying this, the employee submitted all the research and information he had done to his leader.
Although they do not reject the use of slander and accusations when attacking Kuiguang Group and Mag, they still have to know the real situation when conducting market research.
The leader picked up the document with his orchid finger and read it carefully. He was very satisfied and said, "Very good. This is the consequence of not cooperating with us. You have done a great job during this period. You can go home now!"
Upon hearing that it was time to get off work, the employee immediately started packing his belongings and quickly drove back home.
After parking the car, the first thing he did was to take off all the strange clothes and throw them into the closet, then went into the bathroom and removed the makeup on his face.
At this moment, his son ran out of his room, looking expectant: "Dad, what are we going to do this weekend?"
The man who always yelled "I cannot be defined" in the company did not feel any repulsion to the title of "Dad" at this time. He opened his bank account, calculated the salary for next month and the remaining balance of his credit card, thought for a while, and said, "How about going to see a movie?"
"Okay!" The child immediately jumped up happily, "I want to watch Aveda. Their promotional video is so cool."
"Tickets will go on sale the day after tomorrow, so remember to remind me." The man showed no aversion to the name of the movie. "Tickets are hard to buy right after the movie is released, so it's best to book a seat in advance."
Well...it's better to do some "disguise" before going to the movies, so as not to be discovered by acquaintances and affect work.
Life is life, work is work.
What diversification? It's just business. (End of this chapter)
