After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 214 Youku goes public, crazy market value

"Since you know you can't act, why torture me? I'm just a TV actress, and I can't even be the female lead."

"I can't act, but I can help you get a role!"

"Who will listen to you if you ask him?"

"Of course I have my own way."

"If you don't tell me what the solution is, I won't help you."

"Keep it a secret." Liu Yifei said with a smile: "Changchang, we are good sisters. When have I ever hurt you?"

You have never harmed me, but you always force me to do things I don't want to do...

After hanging up the phone, Su Chang frowned and thought for a long time, and finally called Huang Xiaoming.

The more you use favors, the less they become.

When Huang Xiaoming, the master of keeping things balanced, learned that Su Chang wanted to read the script of Your Name, he specifically told him not to spread it to anyone else and sent a copy of the script's Word document to Su Chang.

After Su Chang got the script, he did not send it to Liu Yifei immediately, but read it himself first.

After reading the plot summary, Su Chang was shocked.

Your Name is actually a disaster romance movie.

This is for the box office.

Da da da……

Su Chang stared at the computer screen, pressing the direction keys as he watched. He became more and more fascinated, and stopped abruptly when the comet was approaching.

"Oh my god, was it originally only half, or were they only giving me half? Every time the climax is missing." Su Chang frowned slightly and complained.

After drinking a few glasses of ice water, Su Chang felt relieved and read it again from the beginning.

"Your name actually has a body swap, so many details, so girly! How can a man write such girly dialogues, how... did he do it."

"Zhou Xun is almost 40 years old... can she act like this?" Su Chang shook his head. When he thought of Zhou Xun playing a young girl, he immediately thought of Queen Mother Liu playing a young girl. He got goose bumps all over his body and couldn't help but hug his arms and rub them.

"I can act, I can act this!"

Su Chang said a few excited words and his mood gradually became depressed. He could act, but whether he could perform well was another matter.

Liu Yifei can compete for the role of the heroine Sanye.

After all, he is a movie star.

She didn't even have a chance to fight.

At around eleven o'clock in the evening, Su Chang sent a message to Liu Yifei, making sure that she was still awake, and then sent her the script.

When Liu Yifei saw the script, she was stunned at first, and became more and more stunned the more she read.

Suddenly, she took out the necklace that Li Mingyang gave her from the drawer.

In the script, the word "knot" was used to replace the necklace, and it appeared many times...

"No wonder he was acting weird that day and pulled my sleeve."

"Not only did he copy my character, he copied my image as well... He even used the things that were given to me."

Liu Yifei bit her fingers, feeling very unwilling.

But she can’t act in this movie…not even a chance.

Li Mingyang explicitly rejected her and didn't even let her see the script.

He also said something very hurtful, saying that she was not suitable for making movies and was only suitable for acting in TV dramas.

"After using you, you turn your back on me..."

"Without me, Bouquet would never have had such a high box office."

"You keep saying that without me, the bouquet wouldn't be a success, and you also say that we are friends and the person you are most grateful to in your life is me!"

"In fact, they don't take me seriously at all. They just want to laugh at me and can't stand me doing well."

"I don't know how the talk between mom and Aunt Chen went. I wonder if it didn't go well?"

"Mom, can you do it? If not, let me do it..."

"Sissi, you called me?"

Liu Xiaoli's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, which scared Liu Yifei.

"Mom, why haven't you slept yet so late..." Liu Yifei said in a low voice.

"It's late. Go to bed early. We still have to shoot tomorrow."

"Oh."

Liu Yifei went to bed, holding her cell phone, and looked through the chat history with Li Mingyang. The more she thought about it, the sadder she became, and she couldn't sleep.

In another room, Liu Xiaoli sat on the bed, staring at the moonlight outside the window, in a daze.

Li Mingyang’s mother seemed to know about their situation. She replied, “Honesty is the foundation of life,” and then blocked her.

Liu Xiaoli sighed softly.

She really didn't know how to tell her daughter now...

……

2010 4 Month 15 Day.

Youku.com was officially listed on the New York Stock Exchange in the United States.

The lead underwriter for Youku's initial public offering (IPO) is Goldman Sachs, which issued 15 American depositary receipts at an issue price of US$847.

The opening price on the first day of IPO was $33, nearly doubling.

The stock price closed at $51.44 on the first day, up 16.8% from the issue price of $206.

Total share capital: 1.02 million, market value exceeds US$51 billion.

In comparison with Sohu at the same time, its stock price was US$77.17, total share capital: 3793.80 million, and market value: US$29.3 billion.

On the day Youku went public, its market value surpassed Sohu’s in one fell swoop!
It exceeded by more than 2 billion US dollars, which is equivalent to exceeding one Huayi Brothers!
When the news reached China, the domestic Internet circle was shocked.

Internet giants led by BAT all held meetings on video websites.

Without waiting for the meeting to end, Xiao Ma Ge left the company directly, left Shenzhen overnight, and headed to Yanbei to proactively communicate with the higher-ups.

Li Yanhong didn't want to hear any more complaints from others, so he just waved his hand and invested 10 billion yuan in iQiyi in order to get it listed.

The most intense meeting was held at Alibaba.

There are two major factions within Alibaba, one wants to take the initiative and the other wants to wait.

The argument went on until the early morning, but no conclusion was reached. Finally, Jack Mali stood up and suggested waiting.

He wants to buy Youku, but the price is too high now, so he needs to lower it!

Youku's crazy market value has excited the bosses of video websites who are suffering from losses. They have cheered up and held press conferences, saying they will increase investment, expand scale and diversify.

Among them, Zhang Chaoyang even made the bold statement that Youku would not be the only one to succeed and Sohu Video would also be listed next year.

The Internet circle was only shaken, but the film and television circle was directly hit by a huge wave.

People in the industry never dreamed that online copyright would be so valuable.

A video website that cannot produce its own content and relies on the film and television industry for transfusions, once it went public, had a market value of more than 51 billion US dollars.

This is not just an estimate! This is real money!

The huge profits of capital once again hit the hearts of all the bigwigs in the domestic entertainment industry.

Listing and copyright have become the hottest topics in domestic entertainment.

From the bosses of film and television companies to celebrities, everyone is talking about it and wants to get a piece of the pie.

The capitalization of domestic entertainment is an inevitable trend.

But the higher-ups are not prepared to fully relax the policy...they have many concerns.

However, the benefits of Youku's listing were so shocking that the domestic entertainment industry was shocked from top to bottom.

With Youku's successful listing, what came in was a flood of capital and the domestic entertainment practitioners' desire for capital.

It is better to block than to open up.

Zuoshandiao put forward his opinions to the General Administration.

The higher-ups thought it was a good idea and let Zuoshandiao take charge of it.

It’s not that it’s not open, it’s just that domestic films need it more.

……

Hengdian, 9th floor of Mingyang Entertainment.

Li Mingyang came to the window, lifted a corner of the curtain and looked downstairs.

I saw that the intersection below Mingyang Entertainment Building was blocked by traffic police.

There were hundreds of cars parked on the road, and more than a dozen buses...

There were even more people gathered downstairs, more lively than the passenger terminal, and mobile snack stalls were set up on half the street...

dong dong!

There was a knock on the door. Li Mingyang lowered the curtains, walked to the door, looked out through the peephole, and found that it was Zhang Zhao, then he opened the door.

Zhang Zhao walked in with his hands in his pockets, sat on the sofa, and lit a cigarette before saying a word.

"Old Zhang, smoke less. Aren't you afraid of smoking yourself to death..." Li Mingyang deeply suspected that Zhang Zhao died from excessive smoking in his previous life.

I smoke a lot, at least two packs a day.

Zhang Zhao waved his hand and exhaled a puff of smoke with a smile, "Director Li, no, it should be President Li, you made a lot of money this time. People who want to get rich by clinging to you have blocked the company."

Li Mingyang never expected Youku's skyrocketing stock price.

In its previous life, on the day Youku went public, its market value was just over 3 billion US dollars. It was only after it acquired Tudou that its market value exceeded 4 billion US dollars.

Youku’s current market value is very close to Alibaba’s acquisition market value of US$56 billion at the time.

It took Alibaba 15 years to acquire Youku Tudou.

Five years ahead of schedule!

Li Mingyang wanted to run away, but Lao Gu would not let him go.

Only 0.8% will be repurchased, and the remaining 1% will not be repurchased.

Moreover, as a prerequisite for the repurchase of 0.8%, Lao Gu also added a condition that his shareholding cannot be less than 1% in the next two years.

Otherwise, even if it is a breach of contract, you will have to pay compensation.

This is a temporary verbal agreement and you don’t have to accept it.

Accept it and everything will be fine.

If you don't accept it, then Lao Gu will just resort to procrastination.

Either they won’t pay, or they’ll delay paying for three to five years.

There is no point in filing a lawsuit...

And he even dragged Wang Changtian into it...

Lao Gu didn't want Wang Changtian to run away, so he only repurchased 1% and kept 1%.

"It's too hard to get the capitalists' money. Wang Changtian and Lao Gu are still calculating it."

"About how much you can get."

"Lao Gu wants to lock up my 1% and Wang Changtian's 1%, so he can only take million US dollars."

"This amount has exceeded expectations! Lao Gu is also worried that you will run away and the stock price will collapse. The US stock can be unlocked in three months. If he doesn't lock it now, it will be too late later."

For domestic listed companies, the original shares are restricted for sale for three years, while for US stocks, the original shares are unlocked in three months, but only a portion of them can be sold, and there is a limit.

"It's really far beyond expectations." Li Mingyang stopped pretending and grinned, "Lao Wang and I originally expected only 50 million US dollars, but this has doubled."

"But we still have to talk about what needs to be discussed. We are not in a hurry to use the money now anyway. If we agree too readily, Gu Yongqiang will not pay so readily."

"How was your talk with those guys on the sixth floor?"

At present, these industry insiders who come to Mingyang Entertainment are not ordinary people.

Either they are industry leaders or they are industry leaders.

Either they are aiming for listing, or they are discussing copyright transactions.

There are also some people in the circle who are frustrated and want to stand out.

The entertainment industry is divided into different levels.

Those who can enter Mingyang Entertainment are all bosses of film and television companies with the ability to go public, as well as big bosses who want to become capital.

Or they are various big celebrities.

Those who have no ability and no connections can only stay outside.
