China Entertainment: Starting from 07 Kuainan

Chapter 560 IPO Plan

On the first day of its release, "Love of Two Elements" made a box office of 5000 million in a single day, and more than half of the box office was contributed by Zhao Liying's fans.

A typical fan economy.

Although Xingchen Media did not deliberately organize fans to watch the movie collectively, it still could not resist the fans' spontaneous organization to watch the movie. Therefore, the first-day box office data of "Love of Two Elements" was still extremely impressive.

The next day.

The box office in a single day was 4300 million. In the next few days, the box office continued to decline, with 3000 million, 1800 million, 1200 million, and 1080 million.

At the end of the Golden Week, the box office of "Love of Two Dollars" unexpectedly stabilized its decline, with the single-day box office fluctuating around 1000 million.

Another film "The Golden Age", which is also a literary film, is a bit miserable on the surface.

The box office on the first day of launch was 1060 million, and the box office at the end of the golden week was only 4280 million.

The box office in one week is only as much as "Love of Two Dollars" in one day.

The key lies in word-of-mouth. "Golden Age" also lost a bit. Although its reputation is pretty good, the overall evaluation is still not as good as "Love of Two Elements".

One is 8.4 points, and the other is 7.6 points.

The difference between seven points and eight points.

Even if Tang Wei, the goddess of literary films, joins the cast, she can't save "The Golden Age".

The three-hour screening time was also one of the reasons why "The Golden Age" failed miserably at the box office.

If you play two games, others can play three.

The money is the same, why do we give you so many films?

Not to mention Xu Anhua, Tang Wei, and Wang Zhiwen, even if they speak like a mountain eagle, it will not work in theaters.

In the past few years, various theater chains across the country have been working hard and wantonly staking out land. The construction of theater chains has turned from a blue ocean into a red ocean.

In the core business districts of first-tier cities, there can be seven or eight movie theaters within two kilometers, and the market is highly saturated.

It’s hard to catch up with a long holiday like the National Day, so theaters must have a few bites first.

This year’s National Day winner is none other than “Blissful,” produced by Bad Monkey Pictures and directed by Ning Hao.

Released a week before National Day, a road movie starring Huang Bo + Xu Zheng + Shen Teng (guest star) + Yuan Quan.

This movie is owned by Bad Monkey Pictures, and Star Media did not invest in it. The share was given to Star Cinemas, which invested 15%.

The main reason for giving to Xingchen Cinema is to impact the listing.

Since there is an IPO, the reports must look better.

After all, Star Media does not have the ability to get PwC to endorse it.

I don’t have that ability!

Therefore, Xingchen Cinemas can only accumulate performance honestly. In terms of film investment, it invests about 5% or 10% in more popular movies.

As one of the top two private theaters, most producers will give it some face.

what?
Made me look bad?

Don't blame me for not arranging movies for you.

There is more to arranging films than just one star. For the same 20% of films, the box office output may be several times different.

The producers have a clear idea of ​​what is more important, garbage time or prime viewing time.

Regarding the management of Xingchen Media, Lu Yuan did not interfere too much. When the water is clear, there will be no fish. The battle between the theaters and the producers will always be the main theme.

What's more, Du Hua's abilities are pretty good.

The fact that Xingchen Cinemas ranks among the top two private cinemas has a lot to do with her.

This guy is also a workaholic, traveling 365 days out of 300 days a year.

Starting from the second half of this year, her footprints have begun to expand to Asia, Europe and North America.

Obviously.

She is not satisfied with her current results.

Before the IPO, she signed a gambling agreement with Lu Yuan.

Whether you take 2% of the shares or 5%, the difference is huge. The difference between inside and outside can be as much as 5 million.

That's it, not counting the appreciation in value after listing.

If Xingchen Cinemas can surpass Wanda and become the leading private cinema chain, a 3% stake could even make a difference of one billion. With such a big piece of pie hanging in the balance, how could Du Hua not fight tooth and nail?

In terms of equity, Lu Yuan has always been generous and considerate to his own people. If he didn't have those shares, why would he work so hard for you?

The grace of saving a life is not worth real money.

of course.

Not everyone is eligible to take shares. Except for core executives, the remaining key employees only have options.

No voting rights.

After the IPO of Xingchen Cinema Line is over, Xingyue Pictures is also preparing to try to hit the IPO.

However, it is not easy for Xingyue Pictures to go public.

It is different from Xingchen Media and Xingchen Cinemas. Xingyue Pictures' business scope is too narrow and it depends on the sky for its livelihood.

If the film and television market is prosperous, performance will be good.

Film and television winter?

Tighten your belt and get by.

At present, Xingyue Pictures' business scope has expanded to Hollywood. Some of the special effects business of Marvel, Universal, Warner, and Sony have been taken over by Xingyue Pictures.

Cheapness is the last word.

Although the salary of Xingyue Pictures is not bad, America uses a beautiful knife, while Xingyue Pictures pays RMB.

For the same special effects, Hollywood special effects companies quoted US$200 million, while Star and Moon Pictures only required US$80-100 million.

The difference is doubled, and you are an investor, what would you choose?
The quality is not bad.

Movies such as "Source Code", "Now You See Me 1 and 2", "Zhu Xian", "Pacific Rim", and "The Wandering Earth" are enough to prove the level of Xingyue Pictures.

Not to mention top-notch special effects, at least it is not inferior to Hollywood's first-tier special effects companies.

As of the 18th of last month, Xingyue Pictures' overseas orders have officially exceeded domestic orders. There is no way, there are too few domestic blockbusters.

Many blockbuster films that claim to have investments exceeding 2 million or 3 million are trying to sell themselves off.

With a large number of overseas orders, Xingyue Pictures has finally got rid of the blood transfusion of the group's business, so it is not impossible to go public.

There is still a little bit of opportunity on the GEM.

Even if some of the data are a little off, it is estimated that it can still be listed. At least it is the company named above to pay attention to.

It is no exaggeration to say that in terms of film and television special effects, Xingyue Pictures is the No. 1 company in the country.

Xingyue Pictures claims to be second, but no one dares to claim to be number one.

Even looking at Asia, Xingyue Pictures is a TOP3 company.

Even some films from Bollywood will choose Star and Moon Pictures.

Third brother agrees, are you convinced?
At last.

Penguin Music is also preparing for an IPO.

In terms of online articles, Boss Chen finally failed to withstand the pressure and sold part of his equity. With "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" as a huge cash cow, Lu Yuan could eat whatever Boss Chen sold.

If companies in music, online literature, theaters, and special effects can successfully go public, Boss Lu will probably be in the top ten of Forbes China's richest list.

Top five?

Then don't think about it.

That is not the height that the entertainment industry can reach.

The top ten can only be explored, not even squeezed in.

Because the entertainment industry is only so big, unless Star Media becomes the Disney of Asia one day, in that case, there is a chance that it will be able to maintain its position in the top ten.

Well.

This is plus the valuation of Changhe Games.

Without the blessing of Changhe Games, Boss Lu’s net worth is estimated to be ranked outside the 30th place.

Because, real estate has developed vigorously.

When real estate rises, there is a lot of gold.
