Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 470 It’s time to have your own territory

Mountains and rivers.

office.

"What? You said Huayi wants to sell its assets to us at a low price?"

After hearing the news, Da Tiantian was stunned.

"Surviving by cutting off an arm, or any other idea?"

"He has to cut off his arm to survive, and lose some weight." Zhou Mo's guess was almost right.

"How could it happen so suddenly? This is too sudden." Da Tiantian still found it unbelievable.

Zhou Mo glanced at her.

"My beautiful and sweet lady, have you forgotten that a month ago, you were still laughing about the news that Huayi was fined because of "Entertainment Circle"?"

Da Tiantian’s face turned red.

"I'm just a little surprised. At the beginning of this year, they were still promoting their film town. It seemed that they even wanted to put the entertainment industry in the second phase. I didn't expect that they would sell it now."

"Not all of them, just one." Zhou Mo waved his hand.

"Then why did they recruit us?"

"Because there are many entertainment companies in the entertainment industry that are involved in real estate, but we seem to be the only one that has built the InterContinental Hotel, so they must have come to us first."

Da Tiantian looked at him: "What do you think? Do you want to take over?"

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Mo nodded.

Take over, of course I want to take over.

As for real estate, at this point in time, you won’t lose money no matter how you take it over.

Besides, he really wanted to build a film and television base.

As the company's business expanded, it became too troublesome to run around like in the past.

It can be said that Shanhe Company's projects basically cover all genres, except science fiction, such as history, urban, gunfights, police and gangsters, spy wars, etc.

And there are both movies and TV series.

In this case, setting up a film and television base can not only maintain value but also effectively save costs.

Da Tiantian’s eyes widened when she saw Zhou Mo in deep thought.

"You really want to get it."

"Yes, is it not possible?" Zhou Mo nodded.

"Of course you can, but have you thought about the business model?" Da Tiantian asked, "Is it like the InterContinental Hotel that we cooperated with Wanda, or is it a film and television city model?"

Zhou Mo thought for a moment and felt that the model of InterContinental Hotel could be acquired by his own company in the future when Lao Wang became anemic. Now he had a lot of money circulating every day and there was no need to rush.

"Is a film and television city better? We can also develop more outdoor locations to see if we can create a new way to make money?"

"Outdoor location? Reality show?" Da Tiantian asked.

“It’s one kind.

In addition, tickets for remote visits to film and television drama shoots are available, so that fans can watch from a distance how the crew operates.

Anyway, fans don’t consider their money as money themselves, it’s just like waste paper, and there’s too much of it to know where to spend it. Instead of giving it to places like fan clubs and letting the managers of the fan clubs swallow it up, it’s better for them to give the money to us.

I can at least let them go inside a venue and see what it’s really like when idol stars are filming.”

Zhou Mo counted on his fingers and said, "This way, we can greatly increase the flow of visitors to the film and television city, and provide a lot of jobs, such as security, cleaning, and small businesses. The stars don't have to pay out of their own pockets to recruit fake fans. How great."

Da Tiantian complained: "Aren't you afraid that when the number of fans increases, those stars will lose control and expose their true colors, which will make the fans sad and never go to your film and television studio again?"

“It doesn’t matter. Celebrities are just leeks. If this one’s reputation collapses, there are others to support. Anyway, they are not our own artists, so we are not the ones who will feel the pain.” Zhou Mo was very calm.

In fact, artists who really have a cooperative relationship with Shanhe are not afraid of failure. They have signed contracts before, and if something really goes wrong, the huge contract can directly make them pay for everything.

Seeing that Zhou Mo had become the boss in her head, Da Tiantian stopped saying anything.

"Then let's send someone to negotiate with them? Just at this price?"

"This price is too high. When you contact them, ask them to lower the price, a lot."

"So brave?"

"That's how brave I am. Anyway, we are not the ones who are short of money now, so buyers should be more arrogant." Zhou Mo spread his hands.

"What if they disagree?"

"It's impossible to disagree."

Zhou Mo shook his head and called his assistant over: "I heard that they are going to lower the heat and reduce the negative impact of the promotion of The Crossing.

Just let all platforms hype up the popularity of "The Crossing" and promote it together with "The Great Wall". Our movie is about to be released, and it's a good opportunity to demolish Wu Baige again.

I guess Wu Baige couldn't imagine that we didn't control his pace when his movie was released, but now that he's taking a break, we're starting to control his pace."

He turned around and looked at Da Tiantian: "Don't worry now, the big and small kings will definitely be united."

Da Tiantian stopped talking.

You really have to agree.

If you disagree, you will take advantage of the other party's weak spot and hit them. Who can stand this?

She thought for a moment and said, "Come to think of it, I remember the survey conducted by Huayi in December. Didn't it say that netizens were looking forward to the combination of Wu Baige and Huang Silang? How come the box office on the first day was only 30 million?

Logically speaking, even if The Crossing was really bad, it should have at least grossed tens of millions on the first day, so why is it so... miserable? "

Zhou Mo shook his head.

“Data will not lie, but the production, collection and analysis of data will lie.

Movie fans are looking forward to the combination of Wu Baige and Huang Silang, but that doesn’t mean they will buy tickets or go to the cinema to watch the movie.”

Zhou Mo has always only believed three-quarters of the calls for xx on the Internet.

If the statement “If the movie “xx” was released now, I would definitely buy a ticket” was true, then Stephen Chow would have made a lot of money a long time ago.

When it comes to re-screenings of movies in the entertainment industry, Stephen Chow’s works are quite typical.

In his previous life, his movies like "Kung Fu", "A Chinese Odyssey", "The Mermaid" and "The God of Cookery" have basically been re-screened for various reasons.

Among them, "A Chinese Odyssey" alone was re-screened three times.

Once in 14, once in 17, and once again in 20.

However, only the 2017 re-release of "A Chinese Odyssey" had a box office of over million yuan, while the re-releases of the remaining films basically only grossed less than million yuan.

Even later on, it was extremely difficult to break through.

Among so many classic remakes, Stephen Chow is considered to be the best performer.

Others are even worse than Stephen Chow.

Therefore, some feelings are just feelings.

Just listen to it, don't take it seriously.

"The film and television industry must continue to look forward. If they don't produce new works, the audience will eventually get tired of the sentimentality." Zhou Mo waved his hand, his tone indifferent.

This is the result of the development of the times, and no one can escape it.

Including him.
