Rebirth 96: Begin the life of a monster from kindergarten

Chapter 133: Intercepting Boss Hu Jia

Penguin has been listed on the market. Zhang and his party originally planned to buy Penguin shares in a low-key manner and hold them for a long time, but finally gave up.

Because he suddenly discovered a newly established video website called LeTV.

The boss behind this website will be famous in the future.

Zhang and his party were not very interested in Boss Jia who would run away in the future, but there was a piece of news that once made him feel very interesting.

That is, since Boss Jia ran away, LeTV has become the happiest company in China.

The media has repeatedly reported on this magical company: no boss, no involution, no overtime, no layoffs!

In an era of overtime and involution among major Internet companies, LeTV took the lead in implementing a 4.5-day work system, while wages remained unchanged.

Why can LeTV do this?

Because in the early days of his business, before the rise of video websites, Boss Jia acquired a large number of film and television drama copyrights.

According to various self-media reports seen at that time, the copyrights for early film and television dramas were simply cheap, and popular film and television dramas only cost 10,000 to 20,000 yuan each.

Compared with Penguin stocks, Zhang Yixing believes that these film and television drama copyrights are scarce resources, and they can further build a moat for the dream-weaving culture.

Moreover, the appreciation of these copyrights and the wealth derived from them are even better than Penguin stocks.

Even in the era of short videos, LeTV is still making a fortune relying on the copyrights of these film and television dramas.

Penguin stock unless held for the long term, but that would tie up a lot of money in the long term.

Once you miss out on the rights to film and television dramas, you won’t be able to buy them in the future.

Moreover, the copyrights of these film and television dramas are scarce resources.

If you start an Internet company at this time, it would be better if it fails, but if it shows signs of success.

Either they will be pasted and copied by big manufacturers, or they will occupy the magpie's nest based on their user base.

Either they will fall into endless competition with their peers, be dragged into a capital black hole, and have to sell their equity in exchange for ammunition funds, drinking poison to quench their thirst.

The copyrights of film and television dramas are different.

Very difficult to replicate.

Even if some film and television dramas were later remade, the audience still didn't buy the new version.

Just like "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", most people still recognize the version by Gu Tianle and Li Ruotong, and some also like Liu Yifei's version.

As for the other versions, they were all fun.

In the era of competition between major video websites in later generations, whoever owns the copyright has the right to speak.

With his own novel IP and the exclusive copyrights of these classic film and television dramas, even Penguin will not be able to control him in the future.

We can only cooperate!

Otherwise, it will push him into the competitor's camp.

Another point is the game copyright of some martial arts dramas.

For example, Jin Yong Gu Long, such as "The Eight Parts of the Dragon".

Online game companies have a tendency to attract bad guys, such as Shanda Network, which was scolded by many parents in China because of its games.

Even Penguin will be mired in endless abuse and accusations in the future.

The cultural industry is sunny.

Cultural enterprises that can go abroad are even more popular at the national level.

Although Li Ziqi in later generations is an Internet celebrity, because he exports Chinese culture to the outside world, he can get support from CCTV in any business lawsuit.

Therefore, Zhang Yixing will not play games.

But it doesn’t end,

Doesn't mean he can't get a piece of the pie from behind.

The game is known as a cash cow.

Even if you get the game copyright and then sell it, it will still be a huge fortune. Ding Sanshi's "Chu Liuxiang" game in later generations was done well!

As a result, Penguin took a huge blow and bought the copyright of "Chu Liuxiang", so Ding Sanshi's game had to change its name and plot.

This is the benefit of having copyright in hand.

This is not a slow stream, but a surging river that flows for thousands of miles and never stops!

Boss Jia acquired a large number of film and television drama copyrights after receiving venture capital in 2008.

Under Zhang Yixing's instruction, in 2004 when video websites were still engaging in piracy, Zhou Xingguo intercepted Boss Hu Jia and started a low-key copyright buying and selling journey.

……

In Beijing, bearded Zhang Jizhong was reading an entertainment tabloid and fell into deep thought.

The new version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is about to start filming. However, the actor who plays Xiao Yang Guo has not yet finalized the time to join the cast because he has to participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala.

As an insider, Zhang Jizhong naturally knows the nature of the Spring Festival Gala. A simple sketch needs to be reviewed and rehearsed for several months.

This is simply unreasonable for Zhang Jizhong, who is accustomed to fast-paced shooting.

In three months, a TV series can be released.

Moreover, Zhang Jizhong was actually not very satisfied with the finalized image of Xiao Yang Guo.

Because Yang Guo can be said to be the most handsome male protagonist in Jin Yong's works, it is not a lie that he will miss his life when he sees Yang Guo.

And because Gu Tianle's Zhu Yu was in front, Zhang Jizhong was very cautious about the casting of Yang Guo.

Part of the reason why Huang Xiaoming was selected was because he was really handsome. He was admitted to the film school based on his looks alone.

In the words of a teacher from Beijing Film Academy, "Even if he is a piece of wood, he is still a beautiful piece of wood. His face alone is worth 300 points. We want it."

In addition, Huang Xiaoming has a title - "Gutian Music from the Mainland"!

There are many comparison photos of the two on the Internet. Not only netizens are making noises, but the media also like to compare the two.

Especially the costumes in "Emperor of Han Dynasty" have the charm of Furuta Raku's costumes.

After all considerations, Huang Xiaoming became Yang Guo.

Although Xiao Yang Guo doesn't have many roles, his appearance must also be considered.

If the actor who played Xiao Yang Guo wasn't so popular, Zhang Jizhong might not have agreed to him playing this role.

Zhang Jizhong looked at the vague figure of the young man in the newspaper and thought: Since the time of Xiao Yang Guo as an actor is too conflicting, maybe we can find a better choice!

Of course he knew Zhang Yixing. Based on the box office performance of Feng Xiaogang's movie alone, Zhang Yixing was already well-known in the industry.

What's more, he also wrote many popular songs.

What's more, he is also a very famous writer.

There are many entertainment companies that are interested in Zhang Yixing and hope to sign him as their artist.

But after many of them were rejected, everyone gave up.

After all, he is still a company owner, and the company in his hands is much stronger than many entertainment companies.

But Liu Yifei actually knew Zhang Yixing, which Zhang Jizhong did not expect.

If Zhang Yixing can join the cast of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", even if it is just a guest appearance, the popularity of this drama will be sky-high.

Zhang Yixing’s TV series debut!

The age is right, the appearance is excellent, and the reputation is high.

As for acting, there are only a few scenes in total, so I just need to guide her slowly.

Having made up his mind, Zhang Jizhong took out his mobile phone and dialed Liu Yifei's phone number.

When the call was picked up, Zhang Jizhong smiled and said, "Yifei, it turns out you know Zhang Yixing, and you have already reported it!"

"Ah, were you photographed by reporters?"

There was a strange sound on the other side of the phone, and there seemed to be a voice talking to another girl.

"These reporters are so annoying. They have to take photos of even having a meal with friends!"

Zhang Jizhong patiently listened to Liu Yifei's complaints. After she finished speaking, he considered it and said: "Yifei, I have an idea. Listen to me..."
