That year Huayu

Chapter 1081: Retaliatory measures; Starry Star - Exit!

During the nearly two-hour meeting, Wang Wei put almost all the objective data from Tudou in front of Lin Nan and the five others.

It ranges from the proportion of employees to the market share that is stable and improving... The speed of burning money is getting faster and faster every quarter, more and more funds are burned, and the "loss rate" continues to rise...

Of course, it is a good thing to have a "loss" at this time.

Being able to accurately "lose" money to where it should be "losing", and the more it "loses", the more it is, makes the company happy with it, which further proves that Tudou still has huge growth potential and room for development!

It's around 1 o'clock in the afternoon, in the private room of the restaurant.

On the table, you can still see the traces of changing cups and cups, and people from Penguin and Weibo have already left early, and they have to rush back to do business.

No one on this trip to Tudou was dissatisfied; everyone, including Lin Nan, was very excited.

"We just have to wait until March next year, and then a listed Internet company with a market value of 100 billion will appear in the industry." Wang Changtian held the wine glass and said with high spirits.

"Dr. Wang, you launched the satellite in advance again. How can it be so easy to make 100 billion?

The market value was only 48 billion after the second round. Even if it has risen to 500+, it is simply a daydream to directly double it through listing. It’s not a small company. If you say it will double, it will double! "

"What Director Lin said is reasonable. The larger the size of a listed company, the harder it is to 'multiply' the market value growth." Wang Wei agreed with a smile, saying that 100 billion is almost impossible.

"You two are really disappointing. Isn't this my best wish?" Wang Changtian drank the red wine in his glass with disgust and said no more.

But at this moment, Liu Xiaobin spoke unexpectedly:

"Taking advantage of the fact that Director Lin and Director Wang are both here today, I want to talk to you two about some things. After all, the three of us are allies."

Hearing this unusually solemn and serious tone, Lin Nan and Wang Changtian immediately realized that it was something related to the film and television industry. At the same time, Wang Wei also sat up straightly and looked at Liu Xiaobin.

"Next month, director Li An's "Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk" will start filming first, followed by Feng Xiaogang's "I'm Not Pan Jinlian."

For the latter movie, the group had already deliberately taken some measures a few months ago, which were just finalized a few days ago and will be implemented by the theaters;

Next month, all cinemas under the theater chain will cut the film scheduling rate of Huayi's "I'm Not Pan Jinlian" to the lowest level. Compared with the film scheduling rate given by other theater chains, it can be directly cut in half.

In addition, starting from this movie, we will only give the lowest domestic movie schedule for all movies exclusively produced by Huayi and controlled by Huayi in the future. No, there is no lowest, only lower! "

After the words fell, Lin Nan and the three of them were silent in front of the dining table.

Lin Nan picked up his own juice, Wang Changtian added some red wine, and Wang Wei was a little at a loss.

This is the revenge method that Wanda has been planning for more than half a year for what happened at the beginning of the year, and it is a real method to kill Hua Yi.

monopoly? It is impossible to monopolize a monopoly. How could it be possible to prevent your Huayi movies from entering Wanda Cinemas?

But if the marketing department and the film market are not optimistic about your movie, then you can only blame your movie for not being good. You only deserve such a small film schedule, so you can't blame others.

"Wanda Cinemas can do without Huayi's movies, but Huayi's movies cannot be separated from Wanda's cinemas... This is the confidence of the major cinema chain with the largest market share!"

Wang Changtian was the first to speak, laughing and sighing. Immediately, he said another sentence that stunned both Lin Nan and Wang Wei:

“Now that we’ve done it, why not do it more thoroughly?

Don't say anything like giving only half of the film scheduling rate of other theaters. If you don't give up, just give the film scheduling rate to less than 10 points, um, 5 or 6 points.

Arrange the film schedule a little better, such as after 10 pm, before 8 am, and the period from 12 noon to 2 pm. Aren't these all prime time periods? "

Good guy, Lin Nan never thought that Wang Changtian would "add insult to injury" so harshly! But it is understandable. After all, Guang Guang and Hua Yi are also real enemies.

Looking at Liu Xiaobin again, his eyes narrowed, and his face showed an expression of serious thinking and eagerness to try. As for Wang Wei, he has enjoyed a lot, and he is just looking forward to watching the excitement.

"What a great idea. I'll mention it to you when I get back today. Director Wang, I have to thank you. In my opinion, the chance of passing is almost 100%!"

As he spoke, Liu Xiaobin raised his wine glass and said, "It's enough for the three of you to know about this matter, and don't spread it to anyone else."

"What do you need to say? Come on, let's go."

"Don't worry, Mr. Liu, I'm just waiting to watch the excitement, haha..."

Lin Nan also smiled and nodded, picking up his own juice. He was also looking forward to it, looking forward to seeing Hua Yi jumping to break the defense.

Not long after, the four of them estimated that the time was almost up, and then they stood up and prepared to leave.

Wang Wei and Liu Xiaobin were the busiest. They got in the car and left without stopping. But Lin Nan and Wang Changtian are not the same. They are not "wage earners".

"Lin Nan, you see, this is the confidence and domineering power of a large theater chain! Although Huayi also has a theater chain, it is only a small theater chain and cannot threaten anyone...

As for what Liu Xiaobin said today about Wanda's plan to 'do' Huayi, it touched me a lot. To be honest, if it weren't for the high cost of running a cinema chain, I would have wanted Guangguang to set up a cinema chain business!

By the way, I remember you seemed to have this idea before? Take it easy, but I am really looking forward to your cinema chain...

If, I mean if, if that day really comes, remember to let me participate... Let's grow bigger and stronger together! "

"Boss Wang, you should go back and take a nap. You're talking in your sleep under the hot sun?" Lin Nan joked with a smile, and then got into the Ferrari given by Wang Changtian.

The roar of the engine sounded, and in the blink of an eye, only Old Wang was left standing there, eating the exhaust gas. The latter was speechless, "Is my idea bad? How great! ”

……

On the 5th, morning.

With the official announcement of the Golden Horse Awards nomination list, the annual invitation letters, which seemed like a routine, were also sent to Lin Nan Pictures and Red Star Studios.

Of course, all the big names in the mainland film industry were invited without exception.

But Lin Nan and Liu Yifei definitely couldn't go, after all, where would they have the time, and they really had no interest.

The one who shouted the loudest in the circle was undoubtedly Huayi.

Because "I Am Not Madame Bovary" was nominated for many important awards, and its momentum was huge, it was a definite favorite to win the award!

"Huang Bo will formally submit "A Good Show" for review on the 8th. Remember to tell Hongxingwu to connect with the funds; on the 9th, the first offline promotion of "Operation Mekong" will be held... On the 10th, the core creators of "Operation Red Sea" will leave with the navy. Let's go and see them off..."

Lin Nan was browsing the news while talking to Liu Yifei about the subsequent work arrangements.

The leisurely days are about to end, and both of them have to work around the clock; after all, Liu Yifei is the producer of "Operation Mekong", and she has to run promotions with Director Lin.

"I know, I'm thinking about another thing. We just agreed to them so simply, but you didn't mention it to Tudou?"

"It's not a big deal. The shares used for subscription before listing were originally prepared for the company's backbone members and the relatives of the major shareholders. If one person succeeds, everyone will benefit, right? "Lin Nan looked up at Liu Yifei and said teasingly.

Aren't Zhu Yawen and his wife, Luo Jin's couple, and Han Jianu all clinging to the thighs of Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, and rising to prominence together?

As for Shu Chang, Liu Qianqian had mentioned it to Wang Wei a long time ago.

In fact, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei had this idea a long time ago, otherwise Miss Liu would not have given Lin Nan a look that day, but Han Jianu, who was so noisy, shouted "poor" first and interrupted the conversation!

"Yeah, next time when everyone gets together, I have to Let’s have a good chat with them about ‘chicken and dog’ matters, hehe…” Hearing this, Miss Liu held her belly and laughed, rolling back and forth.

In the outside world, “Hidden Man” and “Youth” have been auditioning for three or four days, and the media paparazzi have also been waiting for three or four days.

However, these people didn’t get any useful information, but the two crews themselves announced the casting situation!

At noon, the relevant news was on the front page of film and television entertainment information; among the top ten hot searches on Weibo, eight were about these two movies. Huang Xuan and Peng Yuyan, one was chosen as the male lead of "Youth", and the other was chosen as the second male lead of "Evil Never Dies"; As for the male lead of "Evil Never Dies"? Everyone in and out of the circle knows that it is definitely Jiang Wen, and there is no need to guess! However, a problem was also exposed, that is, such an important role was decided in just three or four days - did they really audition? Even a fool can see that it was decided in advance! Dong Ping was entertaining Gu Changwei with Xu Zheng and Ning Hao. At this moment, the former three were all in their hearts. "Disdain" Huayi's operation.

Who in the circle doesn't know about the "scandal"? Although Director Gu's contract with Huayi expires at the end of this month and it is clear that they will not cooperate, there are still more than 20 days before they can be considered to have completely parted ways?

But now "Youth" has only been auditioned for four days, and it has officially announced Huang Xuan... This is clearly spitting in the face. It is not leaving any face for Gu Changwei, and it is purely disgusting to the latter.

"Director Gu, don't worry, after you come to Huanxi, you will be treated exactly the same as Director Wang Jiawei and Director Chen Kexin. As for the shares, it depends on how much Director Gu can take.

Directors Wang Jiawei and Chen Kexin currently hold 4.15% and 5.89% of Huanxi's shares directly and indirectly, respectively. Director Gu can refer to this..."

After more than an hour, the guests and hosts were happy; Gu Changwei asked to leave first, and Dong Ping and the other two naturally did not stop him.

"If you say that Director Gu is not angry, I will never believe it. Huayi is really disgusting, and their methods are really fucking despicable!" Ning Hao smacked his lips and cursed.

"It's a bit of that, Huayi does things without leaving any way out. In the future, even if Director Gu and that side have completely broken up, it may not be a bad thing for Huanxi. "

Dong Ping fully analyzed from Huanxi's perspective, although this may be a bit unkind.

"Okay, there is still a social event with Director Zhang Yibai in the evening? Ning Hao, are you going?" Xu Zheng turned his head and looked at Ning Hao.

"I won't go. I'm not in the mood. I'm leaving first." Ning Hao turned and walked towards his car.

"Then let's go. Including Zhang Yibai, Huanxi has 4 well-known directors, and we will continue to expand in the future!" Dong Ping said to Xu Zheng in a good mood, and the latter immediately nodded with a smile.

...

If Yan Fei hadn't called to remind him, Lin Nan would have almost forgotten the movie "Mr. Donkey". It will be released on the 28th of the month and premiered on the 25th.

It can only be said that the main creative faces of all "amateurs" are indeed difficult to attract the attention of more audiences and netizens. Media publicity and reports alone have little effect.

At the critical moment, Lin Nan, a well-known director, had to go to the stage in person, which is really... a waste of talent!

"Got it, got it, I'll save the time. By the way, have all the actors for "The Shameful Iron Fist" been decided? When will the filming start?"

"Director Lin, the casting is not over yet. But don't worry, please let producer Liu know that "The Shameful Iron Fist" will start filming in early December at the latest, and there will be no delay."

"Okay, I'll tell her."

After a few simple chats, Lin Nan hung up the phone. One more thing, making it seem like I'm about to join the crew and work overtime even though I'm not rushing to film these two months!

The stars are shining.

Lu Zheng has already started the "finishing" work, and Jing Tian is listening to his final instructions.

"Tiantian, at the end of the year, after dealing with financial and tax issues, I will cancel Xingguang Canlan, and you also need to register your own studio.

As for the team members of the studio, it doesn't have to be too complicated. Just implement the three points of assistant, agent and finance...

As of this year, you have debuted for 12 years, and you should be able to walk the rest of the way well. If you really have any problems, go to Director Lin for help, he will never refuse!"

Looking at Jingtian, Lu Zheng felt that there was no need to say anything more. Because Jingtian's development foundation has been very solid over the years, especially in terms of connections, better than 99% of the actresses in the circle!

"I know, Uncle Lu. Thank you for all these years."

Jingtian's eyes were a little red. Although Lu Zheng helped her all these years because it involved some "favors" between elders, it has been so long, how could she not have some emotional fluctuations at this moment?

"No need to thank me. Tiantian, I wish you a smooth journey in the future."

Lu Zheng smiled and nodded. He thought of it as a decade of "tourism" in the film and television industry; after this year, he would completely quit the industry and return to his job.
