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

Chapter 353: The Live Broadcasting Track Begins to Emerge

"Director Li, are you interested in acting in a comedy?" Xu Zheng took out the script of Lost on Journey 2 at some point and came to Li Mingyang and said.

"My acting skills are not good." Li Mingyang shook his head.

"Director Li is too modest. The most important thing about acting is audience recognition. Director Li's acting skills are praised to perfection online!" Xu Zheng said exaggeratedly.

When the topic of acting was brought up, all the directors at the table immediately started praising Li Mingyang so much that he felt embarrassed.

Li Mingyang is now both the director and the boss of Guangguang!
That number of fans is exaggerated!
It’s a big shock to the domestic entertainment industry!
What kind of acting skills are needed!
It was the first time for them to see how movie promotion could be done.

Various linkages, cultural tourism promotions and concerts have been arranged...

Movie box office is a hard indicator for film directors!
After Xu Zheng started talking, the other directors no longer held back and took out their scripts from their bags and showed them to Li Mingyang.

Hope he can act in it.

"Look, we are all family from now on." Wang Changtian unscrewed the thermos cup, took a sip of tea and said.

Li Mingyang actually has some understanding of the movies that each person is going to make, and he knows very well what the box office performance will be like.

Gordon Chan's painting is a mess! What a terrible movie!

During the promotion, the film used Liu Yan as a hype, with all kinds of hot, fashionable, fiery and sexy scenes. However, when the audience went to the cinema, they found that there was no vividness at all, only old and ugly people, and it was completely inconsistent with the product.

However, the money was indeed defrauded.

The box office is close to 200 million.

As for The Four, it's a bad movie.

But there are a lot of erotic scenes, really erotic.

If "Painted Skin" had been made with the filter of the Four, and had a female demon taking a bath, the box office would definitely have increased by another 100 million.

The Four Famous Detectives also made money.

Then I filmed The Four 2 and 3 in one go.

Swallow's Youthfulness set a precedent.

Later, Su Youpeng was also bewitched by Yan Zi and came to Guangguang to shoot the youth movie, The Left Ear.

Deng Chao’s Breakup Master… was blasted as disgusting by Lu Sang’s father before it was even released, and he asked Sun Li to control her husband and not let him humiliate her.

The Breakup Master was attacked online before it was even released.

But Li Mingyang likes this movie very much.

Deng Chao has always had a serious and stereotyped image.

Suddenly he turned into a funny guy, what a contrast! So funny!

Breakup master Deng Chao completely let go of his nature, threw off the shackles, and became the most despicable version of himself, shocking the Empress into becoming an emoticon.

So mean and free, he has become a Chinese little mean guy.

From then on, Deng Chao seemed to have opened up his Ren and Du meridians, and he went further and further down the path of being funny.

Lu Sang's father actually admires Deng Chao very much... After all, Deng Chao is good at filming serious dramas, which are very much in line with the aesthetic tastes of older literary youths.

And in The Breakup Master, Deng Chao is so fucking eye-catching, he’s the first one to dance on pole in women’s clothing!

Jin Xing's shock was not fake! It was a genuine feeling!

Li Mingyang took over the script of Lost on Journey 2, which was very different from the Lost in Thailand he remembered...

It doesn't feel like a movie.

Li Mingyang raised his eyes and glanced at Xu Zheng.

Xu Zheng grinned, feeling extremely nervous.

Comedy is the hardest.

The script is important, but it depends even more on the actors' on-the-spot performance. Actors will create, work on jokes, and polish their lines during the performance.

So good comedy is super laborious and time-consuming.

"This script is boring. Let's revise it." Li Mingyang returned the script to Xu Zheng.

Xu Zheng's eyes turned, and he immediately said, "Director Li, since you want to change the script, can you tell me what type of role you want to play, and I'll add it to your role! My biggest wish in this life is to work with Director Li once."

When Yan Zi heard this, she thought to herself, Damn, you are so shameless!

"Whatever, don't give me too many scenes. Seriously, I can only give you two days at most."

"Okay! Director Li, it's my greatest honor that you can come..." Before Xu Zheng could finish his words, he was pushed aside by Yan Zi.

"Director Li, please take a look at my script. I think this male lead is perfect for you. It's simply tailor-made for you." Yan Zi stuffed the script into Li Mingyang's hands, then held her face and said with admiration.

This made many people present feel annoyed and uncomfortable.

You’re so old...but you’re still acting like Xiaoyanzi.

Li Mingyang took out a cigarette from his pocket, and several directors followed suit and came forward to light it.

In just a moment, five small flames appeared in front of Li Mingyang.

Li Mingyang put the cigarette in his mouth and lit it with the flame from Chen Jia.

The campus youth market is a classic example of domestic entertainment companies making a big investment with a small investment.

Before So Young, there were many campus youth films, but their box office performances were mediocre.

The classic campus youth film "You Are the Apple of My Eye" did not make over 100 million yuan at the mainland box office.

It is a tribute to youth, raising the box office of campus youth films to a level that drove the industry crazy.

7.2 million, setting a precedent for campus youth films.

Compared with Xu Zheng’s Lost on Journey 2, the script of So Young is more complete.

Yan Zi wanted him to play the male lead Chen Xiaozheng.

That is Zhao Youting's role. "Sister Zhao, forget it. I really don't have time. Just showing my face will be enough."

"Director Li, how could you do this? You gave Brother Shanzheng two days of schedule, but you only showed up in front of me." Yan Zi refused.

"I make youth films myself, and I've had enough."

"How could that be possible! Director Li, you are so young and so handsome, just like you came out of a comic book. You are the chosen male lead for a youth film! It is a pity for Chinese films not to make youth films!"

Li Mingyang felt very warm at heart when he heard this.

In his previous life, he was handsome but had no background and no acting skills. He could only play supporting roles and couldn't get any good resources. His life was so miserable.

The scripts that the director took out were all things he could only dream of but could not achieve in his previous life.

But now, he no longer needs it.

He could give himself better resources.

"Sister Zhao, you are so good at talking. How about this? I will give you three days of time. As for how to shoot, you decide it yourself." Li Mingyang glanced at the time. "We are all family. If I am free, I will arrange a time. If I am not free, I will also help promote the movie when it is released. Let's leave it at that for today. I have a plane to catch."

After Li Mingyang finished speaking, he toasted to all the directors. No one wanted to keep them, so they could only nod and smile, and clink glasses with Li Mingyang one by one.

……

After the dinner with the directors of Guangguang.

Wang Changtian drove Li Mingyang back to the hotel. On the way back to the hotel, Wang Changtian asked him not to pick up the movie Lost on Journey.

There will be trouble ahead for this movie.

Because Xu Zheng does not have the copyright of Lost on Journey.

"How dare you make a second film without the copyright?"

"Xu Zheng said he could handle it, but I don't think he can. Let's wait until the movie is released." Wang Changtian said lightly.

"Let's prepare for a rainy day..."

Wang Changtian was obviously not very concerned about this matter and changed the subject to the live broadcast of the bouquet of flowers.

Where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes; where there are profitable industries, there will be wars.

The first round of the live broadcast industry, the PC live broadcast war, has quietly begun with the fierce battle between Huabao Live and Liujianfang.
Kicked off.

It is different from the film and television industry, online shopping industry, gaming industry, and long video industry.

The live broadcast was not intense.

It’s not that people are not optimistic about this industry, but that the live streaming industry is too small.

Moreover, the profit model and content model are too simple
The live broadcasts are all of beautiful women and online nightclubs.

Income mainly comes from gift rewards, and occasionally from advertising sponsorship fees.

Of course, the profits are still considerable. Huabu Live made nearly 5 million yuan in profit last year, which is more profitable than Youku.

Youku lost 300 million last year...

But the live streaming industry is too small to satisfy the appetite of Internet giants.

Moreover, there is no threshold to the live broadcast industry. The big fish are 9158, YY Live, and Huabu Video.

There are countless small shrimps trying to make trouble for the emperor.

The small shrimp may have eaten their fill today, and may disappear after a while, or change their skin and continue to make money secretly.

The operating model of pirated websites, quick in and out, overseas servers, and gray income are quite terrifying.

In Zhang Wei's words, the combined net profits of the three major live streaming websites are not as much as a small shrimp that has been alive for more than three months...

The Internet and social conditions are the primary productive forces and are the real way to make money.

Wang Changtian analyzed the live broadcast industry, talked about Penguin's toxic milk powder, and the upcoming League of Legends.

"Games can indeed drive the live streaming industry. As far as I know, Station A and YY are both deploying game live streaming. The benefits of game videos can be perfectly reflected in game live streaming." said Li Mingyang.

"You think so too." Wang Changtian said as he parked the car on the side of the road.

“It’s about the same. There is a high degree of overlap between people who watch beautiful women’s live broadcasts and people who play games,” said Li Mingyang.

"The game live broadcasting industry is huge and requires high investment. It also requires game copyrights. Have you ever thought about introducing new capital?"

"Penguin!"

"Penguin is not interested in the live streaming track, but I am. How about a stock-for-stock swap?"

"Are you interested?"

This time, it was Li Mingyang's turn to be surprised.

There is no threshold to live streaming, anyone can do it, whether they are human or ghost.

The threshold for making movies is extremely high and the influence is huge.

Internet capital has the will but not the ability to do so and dares not come in easily, but is willing to invest money to support.

In this year's box office war, everyone was trying to sabotage each other and cut off each other's funding chains. Without the participation of BAT, it would have been impossible for three movies to have a box office of over 1 billion.

"Do you know why Yu Dong wants to build a film and television city?" Wang Changtian did not give a direct answer, but changed the subject.

"I'm attracted by the profits from real estate."

"Yu Dong has connections in the upper echelons. In order to develop the film market, the upper echelons supported two film companies, one was Huayi and the other was Bona. Films require capital, and to obtain capital one must go public. At that time, going public on the U.S. stock market was a hot topic, and the upper echelons finally chose Bona, allowing Bona to go public overseas and Huayi to go public domestically."

"And this matter..."

"Originally, listing on the U.S. stock market was a great thing, but who would have thought that the wind direction would suddenly change in recent years? Bona couldn't raise funds in the U.S. stock market at all. Overseas investors are not optimistic about domestic box office revenue. They care more about film derivative industries, that is, IP development."

"I see. Bernard wants to develop IP and raise the stock price. But this doesn't seem to be of any benefit to us!"

"The people above Yu Dong are in the same circle as us. Helping each other brings many benefits."
