Huayu started as a substitute director

Chapter 555 It’s better to give the opportunity to Xiang Zuo
"Big Hero 6" is only nominated now, and it remains to be seen whether it can win the award in the end.

As time goes by, the impact of the Macau Film Festival has not dissipated, but continues to ferment, and there is also a lot of noise on the Internet.

When Feng Kuazi heard that the principal had called him ugly, he posted on social media: "Don't let me see him. If I see him, I'll give him a couple of slaps. He's so disrespectful. I could be his grandfather."

"I advise you to take a piss and look at yourself. The principal's evaluation is still very objective. Hahaha!" commented one netizen.

This is the comment with the highest number of likes, which made some netizens laugh to death and did not give any face to Director Feng at all.

In fact, most netizens did not like this person, but now they have a good impression of the principal, so they helped the principal to scold this person.

Of course Fang Hong would ignore him, as doing so would be lowering his status.

While the Internet is bustling outside, there are undercurrents in the film industry. Some people are already lobbying that the next Macau Film Festival should not be hosted by the principal.

It was simply because the principal was too successful, revealing inside information and creating hype, making it known to everyone, and he himself had channels for promotion, so it could not be stopped.

The most important thing is that it bypassed expert groups such as film associations, experts and scholars from film research institutions, and film critics, causing them to lose their voice and the right to interpret "honor".

This was a heavy blow to them and made the masters very unhappy.

The organizers of this film festival are outsiders, and the judges are insiders but not their own people. Not only did they get nothing, but the principal also destroyed their mystery and authority.

If the principal continues to do this, what use are they?

Many things that should not be known to the people are now known to the people. Film award ceremonies are very profitable. Is this something that can be said?
Is it possible to talk about the phenomenon of buying awards?

A relative won a prize through insider activities. Is this something you can tell about?

Anyway, no matter how Fang Hong lobbied them, he couldn't do anything.

The successful hosting of the Macau Film Festival was achieved by bypassing those experts and some domestic film associations.

Some people even went to Zhang Huijun to persuade him and put pressure on him to persuade the principal to give up the Macau Film Festival. Even if it was held, they had to be allowed to participate.

These words were also said to Macau.

Fang Hong is from the first department of Beijing Film Academy and has the support of Beijing Film Academy. What Zhang Huijun said can put some pressure on the president.

Moreover, you, Zhang Huijun, are also an expert. If the principal does this, it will harm your interests, and the reasons are very sufficient.

Zhang Huijun wanted to have a good talk with the principal, but the principal ran away after sending Donna away and disappeared, so he really had no chance.

Of course, if Macau wants to take back the ownership and not let Fang Hong host the event, he can do nothing about it. After all, he is a capitalist. No matter how much money or power he has, he can do nothing against the government.

You can only accept it passively, you have no power to refuse.

But he knows that without him, the Macau Film Festival will be a mess. Of course, the Macau side also knows this. Relying on those masters, this film festival will never get off the ground.

Macau’s entertainment industry will never take off.

The ideas are different. Fang Hong can serve the interests of Macau, while those gentlemen serve their own interests.

This wave has boosted Macau's tourism industry. Some movie shooting locations are located here. For example, a movie called "Yutu" is planned to be shot here, and this time "Lucy 2" will be shot in Macau.

The cost of eating, drinking, defecating and urinating for a large crew of thousands of people is not a small amount.

Fang Hong didn't care how those people lobbied everywhere, the only thing he could do was to strengthen his strength.

TikTok was launched on January 1st. So far, there has not been any significant change in the number of downloads and we are still testing the experience.

The main problem is that the positioning is unclear. Currently, Tik Tok is still mainly based on lip-syncing to music and has not yet figured out its specific positioning. It hopes to make a breakthrough by becoming a music creative short video social software.

Any product must find its style and target a specific user group.

Moreover, this new product lacks user base and brand awareness, so it is not easy to promote. Another problem is that the technology is a bit insufficient and the user retention rate is low.

It's normal for new products to have a lot of problems.

In addition, there are mature short video competitors such as Kuaishou and Meipai in the market, and Douyin is just a new entrant.

It takes time to explore and find the positioning and accumulate technical advantages suitable for this product.

Fang Hong did not interfere too much. He did not know some specific operational strategies for this product, so the team needed to find the right strategy on their own.

His ideas are just his ideas. If he says something wrong, it is easy to mislead the team and they will take a detour. It is up to them to grow on their own.

But he made this a priority for development and provided sufficient resources and funds.

All the top executives of Chang'e Technology know this.

Let TikTok develop step by step first. If the team gets the hang of it one day, it will become popular all of a sudden. It will be the same team as before.

As the Spring Festival is approaching, Tencent’s MOBA mobile game "King of Glory" is officially launched.

Compared with the original time and space, it is almost half a year earlier.

This is because of the pressure from "Honor of Kings" and Swan Castle.

The game "King of Glory" has exquisite graphics and smooth operation, and it won praise from players as soon as it was launched.

In addition, with the huge amount of resources invested by Tencent in publicity and the use of social platforms such as WeChat and QQ for promotion, it can be said that it has attracted a large number of players.

Once it was launched, the number of downloads exceeded 1500 million in a very short time.

During the period when "King of Glory" was extremely popular, a large number of posts and videos slandering "Honor of Kings" appeared on major social platforms such as Weibo, Tieba, Space, and even on Bilibili, a small site.

They asked bloggers, veteran players and senior gamers to review the two games, and came to the conclusion that "All People's Super God is YYDS, and Honor of Kings is a piece of crap!"

Tencent has organized a large number of online trolls to discredit King of Glory. Fans of both sides also started to criticize each other. Those who supported King of Glory said, "Even dogs won't play Tencent's games!"

The person who supports All People Super God said: "All the players of King of Glory are young children."

Players on both sides despised each other and called each other trash. A battle without the smoke of gunpowder was being played out on major social networking sites.

Players are also easily led by the rhythm, and many players are attracted to it. This is a situation of one gaining while the other loses.

The two products are actually the same competing products!
In the first month of its launch on iOS, "King of Glory" topped the App Store's free list, surpassing the data of "Honor of Kings" in one fell swoop. It's simply terrifying.

Tencent is still very powerful. Chang'e Technology does not have the advantage of TikTok, so it cannot compete with them for the time being.

Regarding this achievement, "Everyone Super God" posted a message on the official blog to show off: "Everyone Super Glory!"

The Swan Castle only said one sentence: "I will fight to the end!"

The two sides started to fight each other for no reason.

Competition in the gaming industry has always existed. Tencent and QQ have been fighting for many years, and they are still competing. This is normal.

Fang Hong gave Swan Castle, and the operation team of "Honor of Kings" just one word: "Stable!"

When Tencent first starts operating games, they are all masterpieces, and they seem to be conscientious, but after a while their blood-sucking nature is exposed. It’s always like this.

Just keep calm in "Honor of Kings" and wait for your opponent to self-destruct!

This is how the world is. As long as you can hold on, you will win, including international trade wars.

Before Douyin became popular this year, Chang'e Technology also faced challenges from many parties. Fang Hong did not dare to relax at all and chose a step-by-step strategy.

As long as he has money for blood transfusion, he has nothing to fear because he did not take any detours.

Even though "Honor of Kings" encountered challenges, its monthly revenue exceeded 5 million due to its large player base.

Even if it's half, the revenue is still 2.5 million per month, which is 30 billion per year. All we have to do is wait for "King of Glory" to die.

After the second global finals, the revenue of "Honor of Kings" also soared, exceeding 1.35 million US dollars in one month, exceeding 9.45 million RMB.

PC games are not like mobile games. The profits are shared with mobile phone manufacturers, and 80 to 90 percent of them are recycled back to Swan Castle. That's too much money.

Just from these two games, the monthly revenue exceeded 11 billion, which is simply terrifying.

Chang'e Technology is not short of money now. Even if the losses of Chang'e Video and Bilibili are increasing, they can afford it. At most, they will lose US$10 billion a year.

There is still US$8 million available to invest in development.

However, Chang'e Technology is now in the process of acquiring Guangxian's shares in Tupiaopiao, which could be acquired for about US$2 to 3 million.

The negotiations are still ongoing. Gaozhun wants to reduce the price to less than 20 billion and take the entire 19 billion, but Guangxian is determined to take 20 billion.

They're arguing over one or two hundred million.

This is normal. If the acquisition cost is less by 100 or 200 million, it will also be a credit to Micro Motion.

There are all kinds of things going on outside, but Xu Ke's "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy" has been released for almost two weeks, and it still makes tens of millions of dollars every day.

He also had some free time and had time to prepare for the filming of "Lucy 2".

I called Liu Tianxian and asked her to make good use of her time to exercise so that filming could start in the spring.

Liu Tianxian had just had a few days of free time, so she had to go and do some good exercise. After all, she was very serious about working with a great director.

What Old Monster Xu wanted her to practice was a sense of strength, not to be as soft as those young handsome guys who had no strength to fight and even had to use special effects to fight back from a distance.

She was also required to practice her body coordination, and her postures had to be handsome, graceful and neat.

Don't be like the young handsome boys, whose light bodies cannot withstand the martial arts moves.

After hearing what Old Monster Xu said, Liu Tianxian did not dare to be negligent and lifted dumbbells and did splits every day.

At this time, Fang Hong was watching Liu Tianxian standing on one foot in the empty practice room, with the other foot facing the sky to practice body coordination.

She was wearing tight yoga pants and a green tube top, which was very sexy.

"Practice well. You look so weak and your fight won't look good. You might as well give this opportunity to Xiang Zuo." Fang Hong was holding a stick and shouting at the side, looking very proud.

"Get out of here! No matter how hard I try, it won't be as ugly as he does!" Liu Tianxian was disdainful.

She had seen that man, like a silly son.

"That's not necessarily true. There was a masculine boy who starred in a martial arts drama, and his fans told him that it would be better to let Xiang Zuoshang play the role." Fang Hong said.

"Who? How come I don't know?" Liu Tianxian thought about it but couldn't remember.

"Don't worry about anyone, just practice well and don't embarrass me." Fang Hong walked around her.

"Get away and don't bother me." Liu Tianxian remained motionless, her eyes moving from side to side, just because this man was circling around her and she felt dizzy.

"Say another word." Fang Hong hit her on the butt with a stick.

"I'm going to beat you." Liu Tianxian jumped up suddenly.

Fang Hong ran away.
