Reborn in 2011, 985 missing from two copies

Chapter 260: 13 billion walking, patent barriers! (Ask for monthly ticket)
If "33 Days of Love" is a box office dark horse, then "囧囧" is a magic horse!
In its previous life, the box office of "Broken Love" was only over 300 million.

Because of Wang Yi's investment, increased publicity and distribution, and the traffic of Meiyou, it was hotly searched every day, and coupled with overseas releases, it finally won a box office of 800 million!

But in the previous life, "囧囧" directly won a box office of 12.67 billion, becoming the annual champion!
No matter in terms of quality, box office, or popularity, "Love Is Not Blind" was a hit.

Now, with Wang Yi's investment and resource support, it would no longer be a matter of 15 billion. There is hope of hitting 20 billion, or even billion!

Originally, Wang Yi was worried about not having a strong film director at his disposal.

Well now, Xu Zheng has delivered it to his doorstep, and even brought the box office champion "Thailand"!
Where is this new director? It’s clearly 13 billion walking people!

What a surprise!

As for Chen Cheng, he is not mature yet and needs to hone his skills for another half year.

As a result, Chen Cheng's "Detective Chinatown" will start filming in the second half of next year and will be released in 2013!
In 2012, we have to rely on Xu Zheng's "Thailand"!
As for character and the like, Wang Yi doesn't care. In Shangyanshang, they are just tools working for him.

To put it bluntly, Xu Zheng has the strength and knows how to advance and retreat, so Wang Yi will give him a chance, reuse him, and invest in him.

After the two parties cooperated and the box office was divided, Wang Yi made hundreds of millions, and Xu Zheng also gained fame and fortune. From a new director to a first-line director, his status soared!

All are happy.

If the other party doesn't understand the general situation and is ignorant, then I'm sorry and just throw it away!

Even for the next film "囧", Wang Yi will prepare the script in advance and use another director to shoot it.

In the entertainment industry, there is no shortage of capable actors, let alone capable directors.

What’s missing is a sufficient budget and a sure-fire script!
And Wang Yi happens to have these two points!
In fact, a script that is bound to be a hit, as long as the director is strong, the actors are good at acting, and the funding is sufficient, it will most likely become a hit, even if it is a remake!

Because of this, many popular domestic movies in previous lives were direct remakes of popular foreign movies.

For example, Chen Cheng has embarked on the path of no return for remakes since Tang Tan.

"Manslaughter 2", for which he is the producer, is actually a remake of Ah San's "Manslaughter".

The Producer's "The Disappearance" grossed 35 billion at the box office and was also a remake of Soviet Union's unpopular film "A Trap for the Bachelor".

It can be said that as long as the script is good, the remake will be a hit!

What’s even more terrible is that everyone is following the same example.

So much so that many directors and producers in previous lives gave up on original works and directly started making remakes with Chen Cheng.

The popular "It's Hot", director Zhang's daughter's "Rescue the Suspect", etc., are all remakes!

But 2011 was okay, it was still mainly original.

But the original requirements for scripts are much higher.

This has also led to the fact that 80% of the current movies are losing money, with some losing tens of millions and many losing hundreds of millions.

But Wang Yi doesn't have to worry about this problem. He has high-quality scripts and sufficient funds.

Just find a capable director and high-quality actors and shoot it.

As for the publicity and distribution of offline theaters, that is not a problem. There is a dedicated distributor to handle it.

The distributor can get a few points of box office share, and its job is to communicate with theaters and promote the distribution!

Of course, Wang Yi has his own platform, which is also a very powerful promotional channel. It can be regarded as bringing its own resources and traffic.

As for online distribution after the theatrical release, with Xingyi Video, that is no longer a problem.

Whether it is to start online paid screenings immediately after the screening, or to switch to free viewing for members after a period of time, it is Wang Yi who has the final say.

It can be said that Wang Yi is not only the producer, but also half of the publisher!
As for the director, Wang Yi also looked down upon him.

Whether it is Xu Zheng or Chen Cheng, if they are sensible, they should be reused and vigorously cultivated.

In the future, they can become powerful directors and producers employed by Xingyi Media, allowing them to gain both fame and fortune and win awards.

If you are not sensible and squeeze out the remaining value, kick it away and replace it with someone who is sensible!

To put it bluntly, it all depends on the other party’s performance!

Wang Yi smiled slightly: "Director Xu, please sit down and drink tea!"

"Thank you!" Director Xu was still a little nervous. The guy opposite was too high up.

"Director Wang, this is a movie I'm planning to shoot. It's called "Thailand"!"

With that said, Director Xu handed over the script.

""囧囧"!" Wang Yi took over the script and was secretly happy. It was indeed the case.

What a blessing.

A person's name, the shadow of a tree.

Wang Yi invested heavily in "Love Lost" and helped "Love Lost" become a box office hit, making him well-known in the entertainment industry.

It is normal for Xu Zheng to come to your door today.

Even in the follow-up, I am afraid that more directors will take the initiative to come to the door with scripts.

So good!

Wang Yi took the script and threw it on the table without even reading it.

Xu Zheng's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad feeling: "Is Mr. Wang not interested?" Going yellow? '

Wang Yi smiled slightly: "I won't read the script. Please tell me what kind of story it is. Only if you can impress me can you impress the audience."

"Okay, Director Wang, the story goes like this..."

Xu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and spoke softly.

Wang Yi listened and nodded. The plot was similar to the previous life.

But many places are different, slightly flawed and not mature enough.

Wang Yi pointed out these places one by one.

Xu Zheng raised his eyebrows with joy: "Director Wang is so awesome, I didn't even expect it. There is indeed a problem. But how to deal with it better?"

Wang Yi gave suggestions based on the plot in his memory.

Xu Zheng immediately expressed his admiration: "Wang Dong Yingming, this way, it is much more perfect. It has directly turned from a flaw into a highlight!"

Wang Yi smiled faintly: "More than that, if you film it well, you might be able to make a famous scene!"

"Yes, thank you to Director Wang for your guidance, I have benefited a lot!" Xu Zheng was excited.

I never expected that Wang Yi was not only so approachable, but also so professional.

Wang Yi was able to point out the loopholes that Xu Zheng couldn't find to the point.

For problems that Xu Zheng couldn't solve, Wang Yi could easily give a perfect solution!

For a time, Xu Zheng was extremely excited.

This is not only a benefactor and father who has given me a lot of help, but also a mentor who has given me guidance!

Who is not confused after reading this?

Du Tianhua was like this back then, and Xu Zheng is even more like this now!

I just feel that I have met a close friend and a noble person!

The two talked for a whole morning before analyzing the entire drama.

"Director Wang's words gave me a sudden enlightenment and I benefited a lot. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have discovered so many problems. It was your suggestions that made "囧囧" perfect and sublime!"

Xu Zheng was very excited and benefited a lot.

Wang Yi waved his hand: "Director Xu is also very capable of understanding. He can draw inferences from analogies and draw inferences from one instance to another. If it had been another director and I had pointed out the problem to him, he would probably still think he was right!"

"Hahaha, yes, those great directors have tempers, and they will inevitably be... stubborn!" Xu Zheng laughed.

In fact, that's just how people are.

At the moment, Xu Zheng is still a new director. He has no qualifications and no position. He is very modest. He can listen to whatever Wang Yi says and think carefully.

But if a big director were replaced and Wang Yi pointed out a bug in the plot, the big director might be listening on the surface, but he would also consider accepting it due to the richness of the financier.

But I must be complaining in my heart: "You, a mobile phone maker, dare to teach me how to make movies? A layman can teach an expert?"

This is why Wang Yi values ​​​​new directors with potential and ability. They are obedient and easy to teach!
"Then the investment in this movie, you..."

Wang Yi smiled slightly: "The investment in this movie is a small problem. I value Director Xu more. I like directors who listen to advice. So, Director Xu, do you want to join Xingyi Media?"

"Join Xingyi Media!" Director Xu was excited.

If you can sign it, it will be equivalent to hugging Dong Wang’s lap!

Are you worried about funding for future filmmaking?

Do you still drink until you vomit in order to attract investment?
joke!

With just one word from Director Wang, the funds will be in place!
Even big-budget movies worth hundreds of millions of dollars can be cast by Director Wang, as long as he has the ability!

Thinking about the directors that Director Wang signed before, Zheng Xiaolong, Kong Sheng, and Director Li are all senior and powerful directors, and they all have higher status than him.

Especially Director Zheng, the president of the Directors Association, a real expert!

Even Feng Xiaogang and Zhao Baogang were promoted by Director Zheng.

Such a great director is willing to sign with Xingyi Media and become a general under Wang Dong. He is valued as a new director, so why would he hesitate?
"I do!" Xu Zheng said decisively.

This kind of God-given opportunity, if you hesitate for even one minute, your IQ will fail!

Wang Yi smiled and stretched out his hand: "Very good, welcome Director Xu to join Xingyi Media and become the first contracted film director of Xingyi Media!"

"Thank you, Director Wang. I will definitely live up to your expectations!" Xu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and was in a good mood.

Originally I was just here to attract investment, but ended up selling myself out!

very nice.

"Decisive enough, but you didn't even ask about the agreed price?" Wang Yi joked.

Xu Zheng smiled naively: "Director Wang will never treat his subordinates badly. I believe in Director Wang."

"Haha, you can talk!" Wang Yi smiled, took out the contract that he had prepared long ago, and handed it to the other party:

"The contract period is ten years. Within ten years, you should mainly focus on Xingyi Media's movies. During the gap period, you can also shoot, star in, and supervise other movies. The company does not impose restrictions on this. As for the salary, it will be based on the current second-tier directors. The salary comes, plus 5% of the box office profits!”

"Thank you, Director Wang. This treatment is great, thank you!"

Xu Zheng was extremely excited. He was a new director, and it was normal for him to receive the salary of a fifth-tier director. Wang Yi directly gave him the salary of a second-tier director, which was already a great compliment to him!

There is also a 5% share of box office profits. This kind of good thing is a treatment that only great directors can get!
He is a new director, how can he be so virtuous and capable?

But Wang Yi thinks clearly, if "囧囧" can sell 15 billion, after box office sharing, Wang Yi can earn about 5 million, and a 5% profit share is 2500 million!
Using this 2500 million can stimulate Xu Zheng's creative enthusiasm to the greatest extent, make "囧囧" sell hundreds of millions more, and Wang Yi earn hundreds of millions more!
Absolutely a bargain!

If you want your horse to run, you have to feed it good grass!
For a moment, Xu Zheng was in a state of excitement.

He immediately took the contract, read it over, and signed the contract directly.

So far, Xu Zheng has become the first film director signed by Xingyi Media!
As for Chen Cheng, he hasn’t signed it yet.

After signing Xu Zheng, Wang Yi picked up the script: "As for "囧", you want a production cost of 2500 million, I will give you 3500 million, but there is one thing, it must be filmed well!"

"No problem, Director Wang, don't worry, it's absolutely no problem!" Xu Zheng said with joy.

Just for the 5% profit share, he would die!
If he earns an extra 500 million in profit, he can get an additional million!
What's more, the budget suddenly increased by 1000 million.

Of course, this 3500 million yuan is only the production cost, and the publicity and distribution costs are million more, but the money for publicity and distribution has to be paid by the publisher.

"As for the starring role, what are your thoughts?" Wang Yi asked.

Xu Zheng thought for a while: "I plan to call Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang, and the three of us will play the male leads. As for the remuneration, Huang 300 million and Wang 200 million will be enough. My director fee + starring fee will be 500 million. This way we can have more Put more money into film production!”

This price was considered a fair price in 2011.

"Okay, that's the arrangement. These protagonists are all good, no problem." Wang Yi agreed directly.

"As for the supporting roles, they haven't been decided yet and it will take time. Director Wang, if our Xingyi Media has actors that we need to recommend, we can arrange them." Xu Zheng knows the general idea very well.

Wang Yi's non-interference in the casting of the protagonist was his greatest support.

In terms of supporting roles, it is natural to make some contribution to the sponsor, not to mention it is our own company.

Of course, it’s also cheaper for artists in your own company to use it.

Wang Yi smiled slightly: "That's easy to say. Our Xingyi Media has signed some outstanding actors and veteran actors. You can take a look. If there are suitable ones, just use them."

In a movie, the protagonist is the most important, and supporting roles with few roles, such as the vase supporting role, will not have much impact.

"Okay." Xu Zheng had some concerns.

"Prepare first, then start shooting, and strive to release it during the summer vacation or National Day!" Wang Yida said.

As for copyright?

Wang Yi invested all the money, so naturally all the copyrights belong to Xingyi Media.

After it is released in domestic theaters, it will be released overseas.

Finally, it will be broadcast exclusively on Xingyi Video Platform!
This kind of blockbuster movie will definitely be broadcast exclusively, and other platforms will not distribute it no matter how much money they give!

In order to watch "Thailand", Xingyi Video can add many new members, which is another big wave of income! "Okay, then I'll get ready first!"

Xu Zheng felt incredible until he left the reception room.

Everything today went so smoothly, like a dream.

There is no way, Xu Zhenglai sends money to Wang Yi, hundreds of millions, can it go smoothly?

Soon, Ye Changpeng also walked in: "Chairman, are you looking for me?"

Wang Yi nodded: "How is the artist signing matter progressing?"

"The veteran actors and the new actors have all signed on."

Ye Changpeng took out a list and handed it to Wang Yi: "Chairman, these are the artists who have been signed at the moment."

Wang Yi took over the list: "List of Xingyi Media artists: Zhang Songwen, Wang Jinsong, Liu Yijun, Wang Kai, Jin Dong, Song Yi, Yu Dawei, Chen Long, Wu Lei..."

In the previous life, many actors and actresses from Noon Sunshine were signed.

There are also some singers, such as the three giants of QQ Music, Xi Ye...

"The signings of these actors went smoothly, but things did not go well with Hu Xiaoyao. Even if we gave him a transfer fee of 5 million... the Tang people were not willing. They probably didn't want to give up Hu Xiaoyao." Ye Changpeng was helpless.

Wang Yi smiled: "It's not that the Tang people don't want to give up, it's that they think the transfer price is too low!"

The people of the Tang Dynasty are now cultivating new pillars.

Tang Dynasty didn't have many resources, so almost half of its leading male roles were given to new actors and actresses.

As for the reason, it is very simple. Hu Xiaoyao is too popular and the salary is too high, at least 20 per episode, and 800 million for forty episodes.

As a brokerage company, even if Tang Ren takes 480%, they still have to pay million to Hu Xiaoyao, which Tang Ren is reluctant to part with!
And the new star, Jiang Jinhua, is cheap, so for "Xuanyuan Sword" to be released next year, the salary will only be 70,000!

That’s right, not 70,000 per episode, but 70,000 in total!

Even if the next one is higher, it will still be less than one-tenth of Hu Xiaoyao’s!

One is worth millions, the other is hundreds of thousands, how to choose, needless to say?

The reason why the Tang Dynasty was able to cultivate a large number of high-quality new actors is that in order to save money, they were reluctant to use big names and used a large number of new actors. As a result, the new actors were very powerful and many of them became popular...

Hu Xiaoyao, Boss Yang, Liu Shishi, Jiang Jinhua... they all became popular like this...

But once it became popular, the Tang people were reluctant to spend more money and still wanted to use one-tenth of the price to take advantage of the other party. The results can be imagined.

Most of the popular actors have left Tangren, and even before leaving, they had to tear each other apart, which was very degrading.

As long as the Tang people are willing to pay a fair price, they won't all leave.

"Tang Ren, you can increase the price to 800 million and see what the other party's reaction is. The maximum is 1000 million!" Wang Yida said.

At most ten million, Tangren would be willing to let go.

Yes, it's the price.

Today's Hu Xiaoyao is too expensive for the Tang people to use and a pity to discard.

Therefore, in the next year, the Tang people will give many leading male roles to the low-paid Jiang Jinhua!

"Okay, Chairman, what if the other party doesn't agree to 1000 million?"

"Then let her go away and give her face!"

Wang Yi was speechless: "I leave this matter to you. I have to go to Weishi tomorrow."

Song Sining had been talking to Goertek for a few days and there was some progress. Wang Yi had to go there to finalize the investment and OEM matters.

Currently, only Goertek and Luxshare can manufacture high-tech Bluetooth headsets.

Without him, Goerben started out in acoustics, and with a lot of technological accumulation, it would have been able to develop Bluetooth headsets.

Luxshare is just a simple foundry that manufactures Apple's cables and wired headphones, but it doesn't have much technology accumulation in the blue-ear field.

"Changpeng, you and Xu Zheng are familiar with each other. Our Xingyi Media's first movie "Thailand" is about to start shooting. If he needs anything, please coordinate with him."

"Don't worry, Chairman, it's all my responsibility."

"And our artist list, you can also give it to Director Xu. All the actors who have schedules can be used. Those who don't have schedules will be left alone."

Wang Yi said, after all, not only "囧囧" is about to start filming, but "Nirvana in Fire" is also in preparation.

The scripts are all ready, and once Hu Xiaoyao is signed, the filming of "Langya Bang" will begin!
"Okay, Chairman."

After handling this matter, Wang Yi approached Jian Ziyan:

"Ziyan, how many Xingyi Xphone 1 full models have been pre-ordered?"

Jian Ziyan was delighted: "I just saw it and the number of full bookings exceeded 230 million!"

"How much?" Wang Yi was shocked.

"235 million!" Jian Ziyan was in a good mood.

Wang Yi: "..."

"It's only the fifth day, and more than 2 million yuan has been booked, and it's full payment! Crazy, really crazy!"

Wang Yi looked extremely complicated: "Add in the one million units that have been sold, that means 3.35 million units have been sold!"

"When will this be delivered?" Wang Yi sighed: "Including BYD, it will take more than half a month to produce so many!"

"Yes, the sales volume is terrible and is still increasing." Jian Ziyan was overjoyed: "Chairman, do you want BYD to continue to increase orders?"

Wang Yi thought for a while and waved his hand, not being dazzled by the current victory:

"Don't worry, five million orders for BYD's OEM is enough. Mobile phones are selling like hotcakes in the first two months, but it's hard to say what happens next."

BYD OEMs 5 million, and Xingyi Mobile Phone Factory produces another 5 million, making it 10 million.

If you can sell 10 million units in five months, that's great.

If you continue to place additional orders, if sales fail, everything will be lost.

The Xphone 1 is currently selling like crazy and is selling like hotcakes. The main reason is because there are no competitors!

But next month, iPhone 4s will be launched in China, which will inevitably have an impact on Xphone 1.

These days, many people still recognize the iPhone brand.

The incident of cutting off a kidney to buy an iPhone 4 happened in 2011!
It can be said that there are still a lot of crazy fruit fans.

Coupled with the emergence of Siri, it can also increase sales of iPhone 4s.

Unless Xphone 1 also launches an AI voice assistant comparable to Siri, it is not realistic in a short time.

It will take at least four or five months for the Xphone 1 pro, and even the Xphone 2 in the second half of the year, to have a voice assistant!

Just to be on the safe side, let’s play it safe.

"By the way, Ziyan, please arrange for someone to pack 20 engineering machines for me, clear the data on them all, and restore them to factory settings."

"Okay, Chairman."

Soon, Jian Ziyan came back with 20 engineering machines: "All are taken care of."

"Very good." Wang Yi collected them, gave ten to Lin Shu, and sent the remaining ten to his parents.

Although the second elder did not contact him, he must be facing a similar situation.

In the afternoon, Wang Yi interviewed Wu Shuang's senior and junior sisters, all of whom were reliable bodyguards.

An arrangement was made immediately to protect Jian Ziyan, and another arrangement was made for Song Sining.

In the evening, Wang Yi handed ten engineering machines to Lin Shu: "Xiao Shu, you can use them first. It will be fine after a while when the production capacity ramps up."

"OK!"

Xingyi Mobile Phone Factory now operates three shifts, 24 hours a day without rest, and continues production, but it is still far from enough.

When all the newly added production lines are put into operation, the daily production capacity of Xingyi Mobile Phone Factory will exceed 80,000.

As for BYD, the components have been collected in the past two days and will be officially put into production. The production capacity of Xingyi mobile phones will completely soar!
BYD has more production lines than Xingyi Mobile Phone Factory!
The production capacity crisis is only temporary!

The next day, Wang Yi, Wu Shuang, and her junior sister Chu Yue boarded the high-speed train early in the morning and headed straight to Weishi.

Goertek headquarters.

A high-level meeting was held again:

"Director Wang is coming and wants to buy shares in our Goertek. With Director Wang's appetite, he will probably take a lot of shares."

"Yes, this is an opportunity. Once Director Wang takes a stake, we can OEM X buds Bluetooth headsets, and our performance and stock price will skyrocket. But it is also a challenge. If Director Wang takes a stake, our shares will be reduced!"

"Sugar cane is not as sweet as both ends. There is nothing we can do about it."

"I have an idea. If we don't accept Director Wang's investment and don't represent X buds, we can mass-produce a Bluetooth headset similar to X buds ourselves!"

"What a great idea! With GoerTek's strength, it can take up to three months to create a copycat, no, develop it. Then the price will be a little lower than X buds, won't you still make a lot of money? The stock price can also skyrocket. There will be no sharing of benefits.”

"Yes, Chairman, this is feasible. Once Director Wang is introduced, Goertek will completely become the OEM of X buds!"

Hearing this, Chairman Jiang Hongzhi sighed: "You are thinking simply. I have had this idea for a long time, but... it doesn't work!"

"Why?" Several people were puzzled.

"Chairman, are you afraid that Xingyi Technology will sue you? Sue us for copycats?"

Jiang Hongzhi sighed: "It's not a copycat problem, it's a patent restriction! Xingyi Technology has registered a series of patents around X buds to create patent barriers. If we infringe, we will definitely be sued by the other party. If we completely bypass these patents, It’s not that it’s impossible, but it will be difficult, even within a year or two!”

"That's it." Everyone frowned.

Jiang Hongzhi changed the subject: "On the contrary, if we let Director Wang take a stake, we will become the foundry of X buds. Not only will we have large orders worth tens of millions, we can make a lot of money. We can also become the manufacturer of X buds." Component supplier!”

"Yes, Goertek can produce many of the components of X buds. Once Director Wang becomes a shareholder, it will not be a problem to hand over these orders to us."

"I make a profit from the OEM fee, and another profit from the components. The sales volume of X buds is still higher. Isn't it better than doing it ourselves?"

Jiang Hongzhi smiled: "If we copy the products ourselves, not only will we be easily sued, but our sales will not be guaranteed. We might as well earn more by OEMing X buds!"

"It makes sense, that's the truth!"

"The most important thing is that once Director Wang bought shares, Goertek's share price soared. We have fewer shares, but they are more valuable and our worth has increased!"

"Yes, look at BYD. Before Director Wang became a shareholder, the stock price was 10 Hong Kong dollars. Now it is 20 Hong Kong dollars. It has doubled!"

"Goertek's current price is 6 yuan per share. Once Director Wang buys shares, it may rise to 12 yuan!"

"Let me just say, it is absolutely appropriate for Director Wang to invest in the company."

"Old Sun, that's not what you just said."

"Don't talk nonsense, I have always supported Director Wang's investment."

"Old Sun, that mouth of yours is hopeless!"

……

Jiang Hongzhi smiled slightly: "Then it's settled! Director Wang is here, come on, let's go and greet him."

"it is good."

A group of people walked out of the door.

"Welcome to Mr. Wang, welcome!" Jiang Hongzhi smiled and extended his hand.

"Thank you, Director Jiang."

After exchanging pleasantries, everyone returned to the conference room.

Speaking of which, Jiang Hongzhi is Wang Yi’s senior and also graduated from Beihang University.

Jiang Hongzhi got straight to the point: "Director Wang, as President Song said, do you want to acquire 18% of Goertek's shares for 10 billion?"

Wang Yi nodded: "That's right."

10% of the shares, which is the third largest shareholder.

The current Goer is mainly controlled by the Jiang family.

Goertek Group holds 18% of the shares and is the largest shareholder, controlled by Jiang Hongzhi and his wife.

Jiang Hongzhi holds 13% of the shares and is the second largest shareholder.

His younger brother Jiang Hongwei holds 9% of the shares and is the third largest shareholder!

Jiang Hongzhi, his wife and brother jointly control 40% of the shares.

The other top ten shareholders collectively hold less than 10% of the shares.

It can be said that Goertek’s current equity is very concentrated and is controlled by the Jiang family. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a family company.

This is also the purpose for them to introduce Wang Yi with confidence!

Even if Wang Yi becomes the third largest shareholder, it doesn't matter, the Jiang family will still have absolute say!

　Please give me monthly votes, there are still less than 100 votes to add!
