From traffic to movie star

Chapter 235 The Big Move of Medal Media
The rise of video sites indicates that the Chinese entertainment industry on the earth has entered the post-traffic era.

The most direct one is that the three BAT giants are aiming at the astonishing profits of the entertainment industry and fully intervening in film and television production.

With their huge tentacles, through investment and mergers and acquisitions, they have extended to multiple links in the industry chain such as film and television content production, publicity and distribution, and ticketing.

In the post-traffic era, the three giants of BAT divided and fought each other for video websites. After a comprehensive sweep of the market, A Qiyi, Y Cool, and T News were finally born to control the market.

In addition, in the film industry, Wan D, a real estate company, has entered the film industry, and four giants have entered the market across borders. Together with the original four giants in the film industry, G Line, H Yi, B Na, and Orange T Entertainment, eight capital parties have initially supported China's entertainment industry. market.

It is also the entry of these giants that caused the market value of film companies with only a few hundred million or several billion in assets in the film industry to crazily expand, soaring to tens of billions, tens of billions, or even a terrifying market value of over [-] billion.

Although Wei Xun is in a different space at this moment, the development model of capital will not change.

Simply put, they annex each other.

Now the asset value of the film industry in this parallel world has begun to expand infinitely.

Wei Xun's ticket subsidies and online ticketing software are two magic weapons that have accelerated the development of the world's film industry.

In other words, in recent years, the more high-grossing movies that appear in the film industry, the more they will attract the attention of other industries, especially Internet industry giants.

What's more, Guanchi Group, which was the first to enter the theater market, has already gained a firm foothold in the entertainment circle, enough to become a learning object for capitalists.

At that time, when these capital giants who really stand at the top of China airborne the entertainment industry, apart from the overlord of the film industry, Dynasty Entertainment with a market value of 600 billion, which film company dares to say that it will definitely be able to survive?
The usual operation of capital tycoons entering a certain industry collectively is to clear the field first and then fight.

Although this day has not yet come, judging from the increasingly impetuous industry atmosphere in the film industry and the crazily inflated market value every day, I am afraid that there are already unseen funds pouring in secretly, and they are doing the exploration of top-level capital airborne. road stone.

Wei Xun didn't want the medal to become cannon fodder for top-level capital that was wiped out and acquired.

So he mercilessly ruined Dongheng Film and Television, established his reputation in the film industry for Medal Media, warned the capital or peers who secretly coveted Medal, and poached Dongheng's TV drama production talents, intending to establish the Medal TV Department.

After two years of accumulation, it is time for Medal Media to fully blossom, extend its tentacles to different fields and industries to make money, and grow its own body.

If you don't exert your strength at this time, you can only face the fate of being cleared later.

Apart from Dynasty Entertainment, it is still unknown how many of the eight giants in China's film industry will be left by then.

Of course, Wei Xun would not directly discuss these deep-seated reasons with his employees, so Zou Min can only guess that he is simply planning to build a TV drama department.

Not long ago, after taking the Best Actor, Wei Xun asked Li Nian to suspend the copyright cooperation with Qiming, asked Chen Man to carefully control the music of the medal, and asked Gu Changming to buy tickets for the panda to dabble in the release. Entertainment's counterattack must begin to prepare for the overall development of the Medal in the future.

Twenty minutes later, Wei Xun was sitting in the office of Medal Media.

Several directors, TV drama producers, and screenwriters dug from Dongheng are waiting here. At the same time, two apprentices Zhang Yu and Zhou Bing, Zou Min, Li Nian, Mao Bin and other directors also participated in the meeting.

"There are some new faces today, but I think I don't need to introduce myself too much."

Wei Xun took out a stack of documents and put them on the table, and said with a smile: "You all came from Dongheng, and everyone knows why you came here. We will definitely have a new job if we change to a new environment. We must have a new attitude. Starting today, Medal Media plans to create a TV department, and Qi Dongyue will temporarily serve as the production director of the TV department."

Qi Dongyue was previously the chief producer of Dongheng Film and Television.

Half a month ago, he was in Dongheng's president's office and witnessed how Cheng Yi ended up with his own eyes.

So now being appointed as the director of the Medal TV Department, Qi Dongyue felt flattered and apprehensive, he said quickly: "Mr. Wei, this..."

"The interim director of production has a half-year observation period, so you have to work hard."

Wei Xun interrupted him with a smile, and said: "Now I have two TV drama outlines in my hand. You need to bring a few screenwriters to release the scripts first. After pushing the scripts, come back and let me review them. After the review, we can arrange them." The director started filming."

With that said, Wei Xun handed over the prepared documents.

Qi Dongyue quickly took it over and carefully read the names of the two TV dramas on the document: "The Temptation of Going Home" and "Country Love Story".

One is a show about the love and hatred between Hong Shixian and Lin Pinru, and the other is a collection of rural trivia, where Liu Neng and Zhao Si break each other's heads.

What these two dramas have in common is that the production cost is extremely low, but the ratings are incredible, and they are very friendly to actors, costumes, props and even the production cycle.

To put it simply, it is suspected of being slightly shoddy, and a TV series that relies entirely on the plot is most suitable for the Medal TV Department that has just been established and has no foundation, and even lacks running-in.

Seeing Qi Dongyue flipping through the outlines of these two TV dramas, Wei Xun asked, "Is there a problem?"

Qi Dongyue quickly said, "No problem."

Frankly speaking, these two dramas are not difficult projects, so Qi Dongyue was relieved and agreed very happily.

"very good."

After Wei Xun finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Yu and Zhou Bing again, and said with a smile: "I read the homework you handed in these two days, and the difference in style between the two of you is quite obvious. The same topic about robbers buying officials, Zhang Yu Yu Yu’s scripts are earthy and funny, but Zhou Bing’s scripts tend to be sensational and suspenseful, so according to the styles of the two of you, I also have two web drama scripts for you. Of course, there are only outlines and creative direction suggestions. This Outline, you two need to go to Minister Qi, and coordinate with his screenwriters to help you perfect the script, and then you two can be directors to practice and start filming."

Zhang Yu and Zhou Bing's eyes lit up.

Although web dramas are at the bottom of the list in the film and television industry, as two fresh graduates, it is good to be able to shoot works. What kind of bicycle do you want?
Wei Xun's online drama for Zhang Yu is "The Man Hanging Silk", and for Zhou Bing is "Soul Ferry".

The same two low-investment projects, "Hanging Silk Man" was the first to achieve unprecedented success in online dramas, and revitalized S Fox Video with a cheap online drama. After a long period of time, the rise of S Fox Video , it is supported by the revenue of this web drama.

The root cause of the decline of S Fox Video is the resignation of Dapeng, the director of "The Man with Hanging Silk".

As for "Soul Ferry", it is A Qiyi's absolute top online drama. Its terrifying broadcast volume makes A Qiyi firmly occupy the first place in the traffic competition of the three major video sites.

It can be said that the four works that Wei Xun presented today may seem inconspicuous, but in their respective industries, they are all at the level of Wang Zha!
After giving out the outline of the script, Wei Xun looked at Li Nian and said, "Li Nian, recently you negotiated with Sister Zou and Minister Qi to select a movie, a movie from the film and television copyrights we bought at Qiming. The filming plan of the TV series, and then pass it to me."

Having bought so many copyrights, it is time to temporarily stop the purchase plan and shoot one or two local movies and TV shows to test the waters.

After all, Wei Xun can't always let Wei Xun write the script alone for the development of the medal in the future. He is too tired to be busy at all.

Li Nian heard the words and said, "Okay Mr. Wei."

"Also, please help me make an appointment with Mr. Liu Tianqiao from Qiming. I have a new novel that I want to promote in Qiming recently." Wei Xun said, handing over a document, and said, "Look at this first. The information and general situation of the novel."

Li Nian took it and glanced at the name, "Journey to the West".

After initially deciding to use the mythical world as the IP, Wei Xun used his free time for three years to finally polish the vernacular of "Journey to the West".

Next, "Journey to the West" will be launched on Qiming first, and then the entertainment stars will be launched to jointly promote this novel to the market.

Then, Wei Xun turned to look at Mao Bin, and said, "Did you get the notification from Chen Man? Ask him to pick out the three singers who have the potential to be promoted in Medal Music, and I will customize a few new songs for them. Yes, contact Lin Zi and their mentors to help find suitable composers in the industry, we need to buy a batch of high-quality original songs."

Mao Bin said: "The notification has arrived, Mr. Chen will be at your office on time at three o'clock in the afternoon."

Wei Xun nodded, looked at Zou Min again, and asked, "Sister Zou, tell me about the progress of "On the Journey"."

Zou Min replied: "It will be officially launched in the next year. Director Bao Qiang likes an actor named Gao Zheng from Sega Media to play Li Chenggong. Mr. Wei, if you think..."

Wei Xun shook his head: "Use it if you think it's appropriate. I handed over to Bao Qiang for "People on the Journey". If there is any quality problem, I will come to you, is there any problem?"

Zou Min said without thinking, "No problem."

"it is good."

Wei Xun nodded, thought for a moment and then said: "Let the financial side reserve at least 1.5 million funds. After the Spring Festival, my new movie can also be launched."

Mr. Wei's new movie, 1.5 million investment?
As soon as these words came out, the entire meeting room fell silent for a moment.

Zou Min was also a little dazed, because the secrecy of "Let the Bullets Fly" was done very well. Even as the chief producer of the Medal, she hadn't read the script until now, and of course she didn't know what Wei Xun had brought to this movie. What a horrible cast.

But no matter what, Mr. Wei is going to make a new movie, which is good news!

In today's meeting, from TV dramas, movies, web dramas, music, and novels, almost all departments under the Medal have projects to start. Although everyone does not understand Wei's intentions, but such a big move, everyone can feel Wei. There is always urgency in my heart.

At this critical moment, no one can lose the chain.

President Wei's attitude today says it all!
In fact, Zou Min wanted to ask Wei Xun about the details of the new movie, but Wei Xun had already stood up and said, "Binzi, contact Panda to buy tickets. I want to make a video call with Lao Gu to discuss the announcement of the Spring Festival movie." The problem."

That's right, another year's Spring Festival box office war is coming.

But this time, Wei Xun's "Detective Chinatown" won the highest ranking without any surprise!
