China Entertainment: Starting from 07 Kuainan

Chapter 228 Shanda and misunderstanding

Before the press conference started, Lu Yuan and Wang Qindai met privately in a small conference room of the hotel.

"Xiao Yuan, I mentioned the matter you mentioned to Mr. Chen, and he was very interested."

"However, in my opinion, if it is just a simple investment, he may not be willing to do so."

This is what Wang Qindai said, and the rest is self-evident.

It's nothing more than Chen Tianqiao eyeing Xingchen Media.

Either Shanda will invest in Xingchen Media, or the two parties will exchange shares.

of course.

The object of cross-shareholding will probably not be Shanda's parent company, but Shanda Literature, a subsidiary of Shanda.

After all, in the eyes of Boss Chen, the size of Xingchen Media and Shanda are completely unequal.

In 2008, even in the economic crisis, Shanda's annual net operating income was still as high as 35.68 billion yuan, equivalent to approximately 5.22 million U.S. dollars.

Compared with 2007, it increased by 44.7%.

In an environment filled with tragedy, what does it mean that Shanda can grow against the trend?
It shows that Shanda’s strategy is correct.

Everything is in order.

Boss Chen, the king is back.

Hurray Century is Boss Chen’s next target.

How can a major cultural and entertainment plan not include music as an important component?
Shanda’s acquisition of Hurray is using Hurray as a springboard to intervene in the digital music market.

As for traditional records?

Sorry.

Boss Chen is not interested. In his opinion, the future is dominated by the Internet, and physical albums are a dead end.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Yuan tried to ask: "Director Wang, do you mean that Mr. Chen wants to invest in Star Media?"

"He didn't say anything." Wang Qindai shook his head and said, "However, with Boss Chen's character, I'm afraid it will be a matter of time."

Hearing this, Lu Yuan frowned slightly.

If Star Media and Shanda carry out a share swap, in the eyes of some people, this may not be a purely commercial act.

Instead, take sides.

To be fair, Lu Yuan didn't want to get involved in those nonsense at all.

Every cent of the money earned by Star Media is clean, and there is no need to resort to crooked ways.

However, the copyright libraries of Shanda Literature’s Singularity, Jinjiang and other websites are related to Xingchen Media’s future strategy.

If it is unable to acquire shares or sign a strategic cooperation agreement, in the future, Star Media will have to be involved in a sky-high copyright dispute with one price per day.

After pondering for a long time, Lu Yuan chose to take a long-term approach. This matter cannot be decided in a day or two.

Immediately, he solemnly thanked Wang Qindai.

"Director Wang, thank you very much this time."

"Xiaoyuan, if you act like this, you're out of line."

Wang Qindai shook his head with a smile.

A man's heart is revealed through adversity. When Hurray was at its peak, the people around him were basically gone.

On the contrary, Lu Yuan, the person who should leave the most, did not leave.

Not only did he not leave, Lu Yuan also missed his old friendship and made a fortune in the film and television industry with Hurray.

Although I don’t make much money, my heart is far more important than money.

Therefore, when Wang Qindai was chatting outside, he would often praise Lu Yuan in front of others, saying that he was affectionate and righteous and missed old friendships.

Wang Qin's 'propaganda' was not completely useless.

For example, Han Sanping's nostalgia for old friendships was one of the things he admired about Lu Yuan.

No matter who it is, it’s better to find a partner who is humane than someone who only cares about money, right?
a while.

Lu Yuan and Wang Qindai came to the banquet hall No. [-] together.

"Xiaoyuan, you came just in time."

"Here, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Xu, the manager of Nanfang No.[-] Vehicles."

Han Sanping introduced the middle-aged man wearing glasses and plain clothes to Lu Yuan with a smile. "Hello, Mr. Xu." Lu Yuan shook hands and said, "Thank you for your strong support this time."

"Mr. Lu, you're welcome."

Mr. Xu said with a smile: "If I really want to say thank you, we have to thank you too. Thank you for your heart."

"Haha, okay, Mr. Xu, Mr. Lu, you don't need to thank me anymore."

Han Sanping smiled and said: "If you ask me, this cooperation is a win-win situation. Mr. Xu, don't look at Mr. Lu because he is young."

"But his awareness is not small. The cooperation between Star Media and Southern Four Vehicles is also in response to the call from above and actively implements the going-out strategy."

"That's what Mr. Han said."

General Manager Xu echoed: "General Manager Lu is now a business card for us Chinese overseas, and our awareness must not be lowered."

"Director Han, Mr. Xu, if you two say that again, I'm really going to get carried away."

"Haha."

The two people in the system looked at each other and smiled.

Not long after, director Duncan also brought Scarlett to the press conference.

The 26-year-old widow is in her prime, wearing a gray tube top dress, blond hair and flaming red lips. She has indeed earned the title of 'sexy beauty'.

"Long time no see, Duncan."

Lu Yuan hugged Duncan first, and then shook hands with the widowed sister.

"Hello, Scarlett."

However, when the two were shaking hands, the widowed sister scratched his palm.

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly.

Good guy, what do you mean?

Seeing Lu Yuan's change of mood, Scarlett smiled sweetly.

"LU, the press conference is over, can you give me an autograph?"

"I'm a big fan of yours."

sign?

Your hands are empty, where can you sign?

"of course."

Lu Yuan said without changing his expression: "I am also very happy to have a beautiful fan."

Hearing this, Scarlett's lips curved into a faint smile.

However, the widowed sister seemed to have some misunderstanding. The signature Lu Yuan wanted was the real signature. After all, he knew that the widowed sister was now a married woman.

You can't be a thief, right?
Can there be any bottom line in being a human being?

Next, Lu Yuan introduced each other to everyone present, and then everyone moved towards the press conference at the front desk.

In fact, there were not many creative staff present today. Only actors Lu Yuan and Scarlett were present, and the director was Duncan.

The screenwriters are Lu Yuan and Duncan.

On the contrary, there are more investors, including China Film Group Han Sanping, Huayi Wang Zhongjun, Guangwang Wang Changtian, Universal Pictures Vice President Chip Nagman, Wanda Cinema General Manager Ye Ning, and Hurray Century King Qin Dai.

soon.

The conference begins.

This press conference did not use conventional rostrum-style seating, but salon-style seating, with each person having a sofa.

A group of heavyweights in the film and television industry sat on the stage and spoke freely.

The focus of the discussion was not on the movie itself, but on hot topics such as China's film industry and Sino-US co-production.

There are very few conversations that actually involve the plot.

Halfway through the press conference, the reporters at the scene only knew that the theme of "Source Code" was a science fiction film, and the main scene of the film was a train.

Then, the male protagonist is Lu Yuan, and the female protagonist is Scarlett, the American goddess of literature and art.

Other than that, I don’t know anything about the plot.
