China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 952: Yellow Robe Appears, Uproar

Chen Duling actually had some admiration for Uncle Chen.

She is a 2D otaku and also a senior user of Bilibili.

This intellectual OL uniform is work, and COSPLAY is life.

In recent years, I have seen Bilibili grow bigger, and Uncle Chen has certainly made an indispensable contribution to this.

As a loyal follower of the dragon, it is no wonder that Uncle Chen has been able to progress to the position of the general manager of Bilibili today.

Of course, apart from his own abilities, his attitude towards the big boss was truly impeccable and respectful.

Chen Duling felt that she still had a lot to learn.

Chen Rui arrived at the crew at two o'clock in the afternoon, when Zhou Yutang was already working.

He strolled around the crew, then waited aside, refilled the tea several times, and waited patiently for the scene to end.

There was no heating in the crew, and Uncle Chen wore a thick, long down jacket over his suit, and moved like a chubby penguin.

When the staff called for the end of work, Uncle Chen put down the water in his hand, stood up, holding his briefcase, and trotted forward.

"Why don't you go take a rest in the car?"

"Haha, I've always been curious about the crew."

Chen Rui smiled and said, "It's a rare opportunity to watch Mr. Zhou filming. This time it's really an eye-opener."

"Let's go and talk in the car."

Zhou Yutang led Chen Rui into the RV. The warmth from the air conditioner made Uncle Chen Rui so comfortable that he almost hummed.

"Boss, these are the documents that need to be signed."

Chen Duling skillfully handed over the information that she had prepared in advance.

At the end of each year, there are many documents submitted by the finance department that need to be signed.

While Zhou Yutang was browsing the documents, Chen Rui was looking at this mobile palace which was quite famous in the outside world.

It is indeed the most luxurious thing possible.

After waiting for about a few minutes, Zhou Yutang whispered a few words to Chen Duling who was leaning over, and Uncle Chen Rui finally came back to his senses.

"Let's have dinner together later."

After finishing the work at hand, Zhou Yutang took two bottles of Evian purified water.

He drank most of it in one breath and then handed a bottle to his uncle.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou."

Uncle Chen Rui unzipped his briefcase with a smile, leaned forward slightly and handed over various documents.

The promotion of Bilibili's listing has already been put on the agenda.

Zhou Yutang is an angel investor, and Uncle Chen himself is also one of the company's major shareholders.

Subsequently, with the support of Jiangdong, the company took off and financing progressed smoothly.

In the A round, Sequoia Capital and IDG Capital followed suit, and in the B round, Tencent Industry Win-Win Fund and DST Global followed suit with over US$3.8 million.

At that time, its valuation exceeded 50 billion US dollars. This year, Bilibili upgraded its business and officially transformed into a pan-entertainment platform, directly skipping the C round and advancing to the D round.

This phenomenon is very common in the venture capital circle.

Tencent decisively increased its investment for the second time, and together with China Culture Fund, Legend Capital, and Qiming Venture Partners, they all invested US$11 billion, setting a record for the largest single round of financing for a Chinese video platform.

Boss Jia is almost crying with envy in North America: I said that choosing Governor Zhou would help him take off!

Now that these companies have obtained entry tickets, Bilibili’s overall valuation has exceeded US$120 billion.

With the endorsement of the Grand Commander of Jiangdong, various capital giants are very confident and seem to be able to look down on their peers.

Originally, according to the idea of ​​Uncle Chen and other shareholders of the company, they targeted Nasdaq directly and wanted to make the company bigger and stronger.

After all, the U.S. stock market is the world's largest stock market.

This is due to the United States' superior international status, which has attracted the attention of professional investment individuals and institutions from all over the world.

With its current size, Bilibili is already the largest video platform in China, and its overseas version has also shown considerable market potential.

On the surface, a listing on the U.S. stock market is expected to take off.

With the subsequent binding with Jiangdong label, the future is definitely promising. In terms of development potential, it is definitely not comparable to Hong Kong stocks.

Later, Zhou Yutang and Tian Ming held an internal meeting and vetoed the plan, and the plan was instead listed on the Hong Kong stock market.

He managed to list Bilibili not to make money by cutting leeks.

Bilibili itself operates healthily and has produced many hit dramas, so it does not need any transfusion from Jiangdong.

Just to gain the right to speak in the industry, he was pushed to this level and was crowned with a yellow robe.

Uncle Chen Rui is also about to reach the peak of his life.

Because after Bilibili goes public, he will still be the chairman.

Zhou Yutang and Tian Ming will retain their seats on the board of directors.

Of course, not participating in daily management does not mean that Zhou Yutang has lost control, even if venture capital institutions enter the game.

The structure of equal shares but different voting rights can ensure his right to speak as the largest shareholder.

Uncle Chen Rui was convinced by this.

This is also the biggest reason why he is so respectful in front of Zhou Yutang.

He knew very well that Zhou Yutang was the only one at the helm of the entire Jiangdong aircraft carrier.

If it weren't for the grand strategic direction and various hidden resources he set for Bilibili, Bilibili might have been able to go public, but it would never have been as glorious as it is today.

The dinner was arranged with the crew in the evening. This is what life is all about.

During the banquet, the atmosphere was lively. Chen Rui, under the influence of alcohol, couldn't help but ask the question that had been lingering in his mind for a long time: "Mr. Zhou, I can't figure it out."

"You say." Zhou Yutang put down his chopsticks.

"Given our company's strength and subject matter, if we list it on the U.S. stock market, the valuation and liquidity may be better. Why don't you list it on the U.S. stock market, but choose to list it on the Hong Kong stock market?"

Chen Duling's ears stood up like a rabbit, and she was also very curious about this question.

"Open your mind and take a longer-term view."

Zhou Yutang had a slight smile on his face:

"The capital market is not just about valuation and convenience. Putting your core assets and the foundation of future development there is tantamount to handing your fate over to others. You don't know what the decision maker will think."

At this point, Zhou Yutang paused, thinking of the confusing actions of the guy in the dream, and shook his head and laughed: "Just think of it as a bet on the fate of the country. The next ten years will be an unprecedented major change. If you make a move now, you will have to change the way you play this game in the future."

"?"

Chen Duling seemed to understand, but also seemed not to understand. Looking at Zhou Yutang who was slowly and calmly wiping the corners of his mouth with a snow-white napkin, she felt it was even more mysterious.

Uncle Chen Rui slapped his thigh, with a look of sudden enlightenment on his face, and raised his glass and said,
"Mr. Zhou, that's a good idea."

******
"Happy Twist will save you from unhappiness! The box office of "Shameful Iron Fist" exceeded 7.39 million on New Year's Day. After four days of release, the total box office reached million, making it the best domestic comedy of the year!"

"Ex-Files 3" broke the 4 million box office in just 6 days, and the New Year's Eve movie-watching craze!"

"."

In the final dance of the Lunar New Year trio, the battle among various companies is in full swing.

As it turned out, the reputation of "The Ring," a movie written by Shisanmei that piled up stars but failed to save the quality, plummeted.

The box office on the first day was nearly 2.47 million yuan, but it was cut in half on the second day. The box office started high but ended low. After the New Year's Day holiday, its true colors were revealed, with the total box office closing at only million yuan.

Director Chen from Hong Kong is obviously not as good at leading girls as Governor Zhou, and the internet is full of comments like "the plot is confusing" and "the jokes are awkward".

As for "The Little Shop of Sorrow", which Reba collaborated with Wang Junkai, the scene was somewhat ugly, and the box office reached 1.27 million.

It is only comparable to the 1.43 million of "The Goblin II", and the screening schedule of both films has dropped to less than 10%, and the potential to reach its limit can be seen at a glance.

There are really a lot of explosive news in the entertainment industry.

The case that happened to the girl who was the most beautiful woman in Mount Wutai back then, was suddenly brought up again.

A certain Hong Kong industry boss was also involved, who was quite short and plain-looking, but had great power.

The prototype of the 500 million dollar inspector Lei Luo in this year's hit movie "Chasing the Dragon" was Lui Lok's trusted general, who was the father of this person.

Zhou Yutang had never dealt with this smiling tiger. They were not of the same kind.

To be able to board the Jiangdong aircraft carrier, one must be of the same status as Boss Anlejiang and Boss Yinghuang Yang.

That shorty isn't even qualified to sit at this table.

However, Zhuo Wei, who is known as the number one paparazzi in China, quietly made big news on New Year's Eve.

On Christmas Eve, videos and photos of Li Xiaolu staying overnight at Pi Jiwan's home were released on Weibo.

As soon as the news came out, the whole circle exploded.

Because that night, Jia Nailiang was still doing a live broadcast at home.

He barely made it in the entertainment industry, so he set his sights on the TikTok live streaming track.

Douyin has been full of his videos these days. When a netizen asked about his wife's whereabouts, Jia Nailiang replied calmly: "My wife went to get her hair done."

Although the two parties quickly made clarifications in response to Zhuo Wei's revelations.

But this year's netizens have sharp eyes.

It was soon revealed that Li Xiaolu and Pi Jiwan had worn the same clothes many times and used couple skins when playing games.

"I feel sorry for Brother Liang! Didn't your sister-in-law go get her hair done?"

"Pi Jiwan is such a piece of shit, eating and drinking at my brother's expense and even sleeping with my sister-in-law?"

"They talk about brotherhood, but in reality they seduce their sister-in-law. I suggest that they ban him. This kind of scumbag doesn't deserve to be an idol!"

"Ma Su, you are such a liar. You tell lies without thinking!"

"."

The entertainment headlines of major portals, the hot posts on forums, and the hot searches on Weibo are all about "Sister-in-law does hair."

Li Xiaolu overshadowed the most popular Da Mimi and topped the hot searches in all aspects.

However, Da Mimi really went to get her hair done.

She had promised her fans before that she would change her hair color if the box office of "Wushuang" exceeded 10 billion.

Now that it has reached 12 billion, Da Mimi is eager to follow the advice.

During the roadshow, she actually dyed her hair red, which can be said to be a sign of good luck.

Coupled with the black cheongsam and stockings, her mature and queenly charm almost makes the male fans turn up their noses up.

Da Mimi sent it to Zhou Yutang as soon as possible, long before fans saw it.

The two of them chatted constantly, and talked about the hottest hair events at the moment with the time management master. Da Mimi couldn't help but chat

"This little rascal is a second-rate guy. Is Li Xiaolu blind?"

Long before Da Mimi, Li Xiaolu, who was also a child star, had already become famous.

Probably because his grandfather was a veteran of the August First Film Studio and his parents are both in the entertainment industry.

Being born into an artistic family, her starting point was higher than Da Mimi, and it was natural that she became extremely popular later on.

In 1998, she won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress for her performance in The Sent-Down Girl.

The following dramas "It's All Because of Angels" and "Struggle" are also considered hits.

However, Da Mimi has the support of Governor Zhou and she is on the rise.

On the contrary, Li Xiaolu's resources began to fall behind.

But no matter what, she is still a wealthy woman with financial freedom, and in recent years she has transformed herself into a trendy brand.

"How do you say something?"

Feeling that Da Mimi’s attack power was a bit strong, Zhou Yutang smiled and said: “Rapper is the best medical beauty for men.”

A rebellious attitude and unorthodox words and deeds.

It breaks the immature values ​​of some women.

To use the words used on the Internet today.

This one is called Pi Shuai.

Da Mimi curled her lips and said, "It's just pretentious and vulgar, not worth mentioning."

In her heart, she secretly compared Pi Jiwan with Zhou Yutang, feeling a little insulted, but also complacent.
"Sister has a really good eye. She spotted the man of her dreams at first sight among the crowd."

From any perspective, the Grand Commander of Jiangdong, who is a hexagonal warrior, is definitely a good match.

As for Zhou Yutang, who is also the true love of many women, he was ignored by Da Mimi.
"Idol Producer", which is scheduled to premiere next month, has begun pre-promotion.

The producer of this program has identified Fan Chengcheng as the potential center.

It’s not about how handsome he is, or how good his professional skills are like dancing or singing.

The key point is to have superb reincarnation skills.

Since he is Teacher Fan’s younger brother, he is naturally a hot topic.

Before the show even started, it had already become a little popular because of Fan Chengcheng's simple and unpretentious self-introduction after he opened his Weibo account.
"Hello everyone, I am idol trainee Fan Chengcheng, the national producer, please take care of me!"

"Formally introduce to everyone, this is my brother, Fan Chengcheng @Adam0616, please take care of me in the future."

Teacher Fan introduced them to netizens, and Zhang Yixing, Cheng Xiao and others reposted on Weibo to welcome them to join "Idol Producer".

"Brother Cheng, please take me with you from now on."

"Brother Cheng, did you really have dinner with the Grand Commander?"

Except for some I people, all the friends in the training camp came up to curry favor with him, just like the stars surrounding the moon, and put Fan Chengcheng in the center.

Cai Xukun is also one of the contestants. It would be a lie to say that I am not envious.

He wants to exchange with Fan Chengcheng.

But you still have to flatter when you should.

If this happened in ancient times, Teacher Fan would have been a noble concubine. She is the brother-in-law of the Grand Commander of Jiangdong, which means she is a royal relative!
It's not just Kiwi's "Idol Producer" that has come on stage, talent shows have become the next big trend.

Soon, the vice president of Tencent in charge of the cultural and entertainment department, together with Mingjie and Bilibili, held a large media conference and announced the plan to promote "Produce 101 Rocket Girls"!
"Oh my god, the selection is all over Asia, doesn't that mean I have a chance too?!"

"Through preliminary interviews and screening, it is expected that the final 101 amateur trainees will be selected from tens of thousands of amateur female trainees."

"I feel a bit dizzy. A girl group consisting of 101 trainees? Can Zhou Gou handle it?"

"No, I saw the rules. The trainees have to grow under the training of a group of celebrity mentors, and they have to go through multiple rounds of popularity voting. Then, through the popularity voting in the finals, 11 female trainees will be selected to form the final idol group to debut."

"That can be said to be one in a million."

"Commander Zhou is really good at it. It seems like he held a talent show in South Korea. Is he bringing that back to the Chinese entertainment industry?"

"Isn't this Zhou Gou choosing a concubine for me to eat?"

"."

People are afraid of famous pigs.

Like Zhou Yutang, the world-famous emperor of domestic entertainment.

Even if he is not standing in front of the stage, as soon as Jiang Dongxi makes a move, netizens will automatically use code names to make fun of him.

Tencent is now a strategic partner of Jiangdong Entertainment and they have cooperated on many projects.

As for Mingjie Company and Bilibili, they are the backbone of the Jiangdong Group, so strictly speaking, this talent show is indeed inextricably linked to Zhou Yutang.

Compared with Kiwi's "Idol Producer", Tencent's program is undoubtedly more ambitious.

Relying on the resources of Tencent and the talent show channel database that Jiangdong has spent several years accumulating and building.

Directly anchored in Asia.

After the news came out, it immediately caused an uproar.
