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

Chapter 468 Fan Economy, Cutting Fans
"Are you sure...you can really hold a concert in your current condition?" Jing Tian said with a worried look on his face.

"It's okay. Even if both legs are broken, let alone one, I will still open the door."

Jing Tian raised his chin and said with a half-smile, "You try to shout and see if your legs hurt."

Li Mingyang shouted and his face changed immediately. His legs were really hurting.

"Now you know it hurts."

“You can lip-sync…”

Jing Tian rolled her eyes at Li Mingyang, feeling that her husband's bottom line was getting lower and lower...

Overseas expansion requires money. Li Mingyang is now focused on making money and will sacrifice his bottom line.

There is a bottom line when making money. If there is no bottom line, you can earn more.

Li Mingyang finally understood the value of this sentence!
"Stop grinning and drink the medicine."

"Tiantian, I'm already injured like this, why am I still drinking? Can you please not drink?"

"Shishi, you drink so happily, but why are you so talkative when you come to me!" Jing Tian said angrily.

Shishi and Mimi both stay at the Bouquet Hotel.

I don’t know where Mimi went.

Except for coming over and showing some concern at the beginning, Li Mingyang never saw her again in the next few days.

Shishi is very busy with business and you can hardly see her during the day.

Then Jingtian and Shishi discussed it for a whole day and a whole night.

It's quite harmonious.

Even when he was injured, they didn't let him go. They kept feeding him medicine, but the medicine became more and more unpalatable.

Shishi always feeds the children mouth to mouth.

You forced me to drink.

Can it be the same?

Li Mingyang complained in his heart and picked up the thermos cup, "Why do I feel that this medicine tastes a bit strange? Did you add something strange? Don't make me sick."

"I added some Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and the doctor said it would have no effect."

"Is there any candy?"

"Ask your good sister. I don't have any candy here."

"Xiaoyu, bring me some candy."

As soon as Zhong Xiaoyu stood up, Jing Tian glared at her, and Zhong Xiaoyu was so scared that she sat back down.

"In ten minutes, your men will come to the meeting. You don't want them to see me forcing you to drink medicine, right?" Jing Tian said calmly with his arms folded across his chest.

When I get better, I will beat you so hard that you can't get out of bed.

The Chinese medicines that Shishi and Tiantian use were both prescribed by Tiantian from an old Chinese doctor at Union Hospital.

Good medicine tastes bitter. Just when I’ve gotten used to it, something else is added. It’s really painful.

Li Mingyang closed his eyes, picked up the thermos cup and started drinking, finishing it in four big gulps.

If possible, Li Mingyang would rather drink it in one gulp.

But this medicine is so bitter that I can’t swallow it in one gulp.

After drinking the medicine, Li Mingyang took the mineral water handed to him by Tiantian.

He drank it endlessly.

After finishing the mineral water, Jing Tian patted Li Mingyang on the head with a smile and walked away arrogantly.

"Boss, you've suffered..." Zhong Xiaoyu said sympathetically.

Li Mingyang scratched his head, ever since he and Shishi Mimi had a wonderful time.

Jing Tian suddenly became immune to peach blossom eyes.

Sometimes the way I look at him is really weird.

The indifference is chilling.

Li Mingyang finally understood...why the little squirrel and Zhong Xiaoyu were so afraid of Jing Tian.

After a while, a group of people came to the conference room for a meeting.

The solo concert will be held on the 14th, and Weathering With You will be released on the 15th.
The premiere of Weathering With You was followed by a concert.

In addition to various online and offline promotions, controlling public opinion, appeasing fans, overseas matters, training new people... there are a lot of things going on recently.

After listening to everyone's reports, Li Mingyang arranged everything else in an orderly manner, including arrangements for going abroad.

But his fans are still difficult to appease and are still making trouble online, with confrontational sentiment running high!

"What's going on? We've already found something for them to do. They should be busy making money and coming to the concert now! Why are they still fighting online?" Li Mingyang said speechlessly.

"Boss, currently all the fans in the 20 large groups have been appeased, and offline lucky draws have been organized. No one in the groups is causing trouble now..." Cao Manman said solemnly.

"Navy? How many navy soldiers?"

"It's probably not a troll army. I've already warned those troll army companies and sent a lawyer's letter... Those who are stirring up trouble are very organized, and their remarks are special and inflammatory. They should be professional PR people like us."

"puppet army……"

"Well, their purpose is to harm you. They are just trying to stir up trouble and stir up trouble everywhere..."

Today is the last day of the three-day period.

If he still can't keep his fans after today, the authorities will clean up the internet!

The best way to cover up the popularity of one thing is to cover it up with the popularity of another thing.

It’s not like Li Mingyang hasn’t tried before…

They even had Hu Ge and Gao Yuanyuan start a scandal, but it turned out to be nothing. It was rumored in the morning, but it was gone in the afternoon. It didn’t even make it into the top five trending searches on Weibo…

Not as powerful as Liu Yifei's female Lu Bu!

"The fake soldiers are no different from normal netizens. It's hard to deal with them if they deliberately cause trouble!"

Li Mingyang frowned and said, "Don't worry about them, Manman, go inform those troll companies. The first target to be hit in the Internet Cleanup is the troll companies. It's almost the end of the year. If they want to have a good year, they can't clean up the Internet."

"Letting the navy company fight the fake army? They can't even tell the difference! How can we fight?"

"Those water army companies are backed by major platforms. Never underestimate others' eagerness for money, they will find a way."

"Boss, do you mean to let the platform clean up the Internet itself?"

"more or less."

"It feels so difficult! If they are forced to clean the Internet, it is your responsibility. If they take the initiative to clean the Internet, it is their own responsibility..."

"It's not as complicated as you think. It's all about money."

As a means of propaganda, the use of water army is actually a gray industry and is illegal.

These days, those who have connections live a prosperous life, while those who don’t have connections have to work on sewing machines and their earnings will be confiscated.

The water army companies that can grow big have close ties with the platforms.

Just like the relationship between the live streaming platform and the guild.

In addition to advertising fees, Weibo's largest source of monetization income now comes from protection fees from its internet troll army.

Li Mingyang was asked to keep his fans stable, which actually involves two aspects. One is to stop causing trouble offline, such as sending wreaths, making melodramatic remarks, or gathering crowds. The second is to stop making alarmist and confrontational remarks online.

The situation was controlled offline through concerts.

Online public opinion mainly comes from Weibo.

Accountant Cao suffered heavy losses from his investment in Tudou, Sina’s stock price plummeted again, and even its cash flow became a problem.

What Li Mingyang is betting on is that Accountant Cao will not miss this huge traffic wave at the end of the year that can make a lot of money.

……

Li Mingyang raised the bowl and looked at the time, then waved to Zhang Wei and asked her to continue presiding over the meeting.

And he went to see Wang Changtian.

All matters concerning the concert were handled by Guangguang. Li Mingyang only had to show up and invite some guest singers to perform.

The network service fee for the concert ticket revenue is 5%.

95% left, with light and bouquet split % to %.

Light 6, bouquet 4.

The Mercedes Center seats 18000 people, the ticket price is 599, and the total revenue is approximately 1050 million.

Li Mingyang can probably get 400 million.

The cost is deducted from the venue investment, team share, network service fee, taxes, etc.

The income is about 300 million, and I get about %.

Li Mingyang turned his wheelchair and came to the 22nd floor, a temporary office floor with light.

Xie Lan saw him pushing a wheelchair and trotted over to him, "Director Li, why are you here alone?"

"He's not disabled. Where's Mr. Wang?"

"You'd better be careful... I'll take you there."

Xie Lan came behind Li Mingyang, held the handle of the wheelchair, and walked towards the small room where Wang Changtian was.

"Director Li, there is something I have always wanted to ask..."

"what?"

"Why do I feel like you're just going to do it and run away?"

"No way, you are thinking too much."

"Ok."

The 22nd floor was very large. Xie Lan pushed the wheelchair for more than ten minutes before they arrived at a small room at the end of the corridor.

Xie Lan went forward and knocked on the door. When she heard a "come in", she turned the door open and pushed Li Mingyang in.

"Director Li, Director Wang, would you like something to drink?"

"A bottle of mineral water."

"Give me some hot water." Wang Changtian screwed up the thermos cup, put it on the table and said.

Xie Lan said okay, picked up the thermos, went out, and closed the door behind her.

"Mr. Wang, how are ticket sales going now?" Li Mingyang turned his wheelchair and glanced at the documents on his desk. There were so many of them.

"The sales are very good, far exceeding the estimated figures. Now there is a problem, how to digest so many tickets!" "Just hold a few more shows."

"But your body."

"We'll all open them at the Mercedes-Benz Arena, which will save money and save us from the hassle of traveling. I can handle it."

“Isn’t it a national tour?”

"How can I go on a nationwide tour in my current condition? Let my fans come to Shanghai to watch my performance. They will understand me."

"Many of the people who bought the tickets are students, and it's not winter break yet."

“You can ask for leave!”

“Travel and accommodation expenses all cost money.”

"We don't need to worry about that. Let them worry about it themselves. We have to find something for them to do so that they won't cause trouble."

"You are being too cruel to your fans... The fan economy is a long-term business, you can't overdo it."

"It's urgent now, just hold on for now, it's not you who is embarrassed."

"The potato incident was embarrassing enough." Wang Changtian said with a wry smile, "Your actions were too radical, like jumping on the table... If you had told me in advance, I would have been prepared. The leg was broken. When I heard the sound of the bone cracking, my heart almost jumped out of my chest."

"What bad luck! Can you please stop talking about it? I didn't know I would break my leg!"

"Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. You should prepare to lip-sync at the concert. If you go to a concert in your condition, without injections, the vibration of the sound effects alone will make you cry..."

Li Mingyang had this intention a long time ago, and that was to talk about lip-syncing.

The two chatted about the concert for a while. Wang Changtian was considered a semi-expert in holding concerts and had arranged everything in an orderly manner. The biggest problem now was the repertoire.

Just any number of guests will do. Hu Ge, Gao Yuanyuan, Jing Tian, ​​Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, and Yao Beina can all sing.

Just after they finished talking about the concert, Xie Lan came and asked them to go for dinner.

"Just bring me a box lunch." said Wang Changtian.

"Me too."

"Ok."

After Liu Yan left, Li Mingyang asked, "How are the pre-sales for Dragon Gate and The Flowers of War?"

"not so good."

"No way. Dragon Gate and The Flowers of War have been preheated for more than two months. The previews were very good, so pre-sales should be very good."

"The test screenings were good, but the box office was much worse... I shut down their pre-sales."

"..."

"A bunch of bastards. Weathering With You hasn't even passed the review yet, and we don't even dare to promote it in a big way. How can they pass the review so early, promote it so early, and start pre-sales? What are they dreaming of?"

"Over there, glutinous rice..."

"Nuomi's concert tickets have a cap. Baidu dared to open pre-sales for them. I immediately cut off his concert tickets."

Li Mingyang didn't know what to say for a moment.

As one of the only two listed film companies in mainland China, Guangxian has the largest market capitalization.

Logically speaking, the light is fully capable of covering Li Mingyang and preventing him from being beaten up.

In fact, a big part of the reason why Li Mingyang was beaten up was because of the light.

Light has cat's eyes, it is both an athlete and a referee.

This is bullshit!

Not only can the film companies not stand it anymore, even the cinema chains are unhappy.

Plus, Wang Changtian is too evil-hearted.

He says don't be radical, but in fact he is the most radical one.

Countless enemies!
"Do you want to get rid of the Nanjing Flowers?" Wang Changtian suddenly said, his eyes full of malice.

"Can it be done?"

"As long as Yu Dong and I work together, we can do it."

"Lao Mouzi is not from the Beijing circle..."

"Just because it wasn't the case before doesn't mean it won't be the case in the future."

"I want to have a good fight with Lao Mouzi and Xu Ke."

Wang Changtian smiled and said nothing.

The room suddenly became quiet, and the two of them were each thinking about their own things.

One is thinking about how to convince the other and have a good fight.

The other one is thinking about how to convince the other party and eliminate an opponent.

After a long while, Li Mingyang spoke first: "My most important thing now is the concert, you are responsible for the other things."

What this means is to get rid of the Thirteen Women of Nanjing.

"You have no confidence in Weathering With You?"

"It hasn't even been released yet, and it's already been blacklisted by the entire internet. What a bunch of bullshit confidence!"

……

The so-called traffic is actually the fan circle.

After a period of rapid development, the fan circle has become a gray industrial chain with an annual market size of over 2020 billion yuan in !
The pink circle originated from sticks.

Mango, which has frequent exchanges with Koreans, started to set up fan circles early when others were still ignorant. They did it secretly, but later the truth was revealed and Happy Camp and Day Day Up were severely punished.

Penguin Weibo cannot compete with Sina Weibo.

In fact, the most fundamental reason is that Penguin only knows how to do data and copy, but does not understand the fan circle.

Weibo Celebrity List, Popularity List, Newcomer List, Hong Kong and Taiwan List, Mainland List... These lists were once very clean.

But with the rise of WeChat, Weibo declined.

Weibo's traffic has dropped drastically, and Weibo is very anxious. It has tried very hard to retain users, but to little avail.

Later, Weibo targeted the fan circle and the stickiness of celebrity fans, which is a huge natural traffic pool.

So Weibo launched a series of new functions in nine dimensions, including celebrity super topics, celebrity power list, mainland list, rising star list, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan list, etc.

These charts are divided into daily, weekly, monthly, etc. Fans have to come in every day to check in for their favorite stars and "idols". The more cards they check in, the higher the ranking of their favorite "idols" and stars will be.

For celebrities who win the list, Weibo will provide them with corresponding resource support based on the rules of the different lists.

In order to get their favorite "idols" on the list, fans will come in every day to check in, leave messages, and brush up on topics. Some fans even apply for dozens of small accounts, or even buy old accounts from others, so as not to look like water armies, in order to brush up the list for their idols.

Later, the base of celebrity fans grew larger and larger, with some even having tens of millions of fans. These people were spread all over the country and in all industries, and were in a state of being unmanaged or even out of control.

For example, when it comes to ranking and voting, or facing sudden negative news about a celebrity, it really requires everyone's cohesion and efficiency to act accordingly.

If this group of people don't unite and instead express their personal opinions one after another, they will push things in the opposite direction. Hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions of fans can easily become a mob, ultimately leading to the idol himself being doomed.

At this time, they must be managed together, so a new profession was born, that is, "fan head". As the name suggests, it is the "head" who manages fans for celebrities and brokerage companies.

In the fan economy, fan leaders and fan club sisters can earn tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of yuan per month through a series of complicated operations.

However, in front of Internet giants, these are just small amounts of money.

Weibo has spent more time and effort on fan economy than outsiders imagine.

Not only do they set up fan groups, they also set up a variety of charts, a system of paying for rankings, and a big fan advertising sharing plan...

In order to provide fans with a better krypton gold experience, many star support APPs have been developed. Each of these APPs is Sina's "guild".

After downloading the APP, the fan leader can log in to Sina Weibo through the APP and bind all the small accounts in your hands with one click, ranging from dozens to thousands.

The more money you recharge, the greater the authority you can bind to your account. After binding, when you are doing data for your own "idol", you can easily send it with one click. Just click wherever you want to swipe, it's so easy.

Let your "idol" easily become a hot search on Weibo in an instant.

Fans are brushing data!
As for Weibo, we cannot allow these fake data to appear too fake.

These small accounts that inflate the volume or have abnormal data will be blocked from time to time. After being blocked, fans can rebind by simply logging into the APP and recharging money again.

The river flows east, the sun and the moon rise and fall, and fans recharge their idols' data over and over again, being blocked and rebinding.

Idols need to brush up their statistics, but they also need public relations.

At this time, the water army company made a brilliant appearance.

They can help you blackmail your opponents, protect your idols, blow up squares for you, block entries, and remove pictures.

Fans react much faster than management companies and idols...

These water army companies are all Weibo's younger brothers...

If you don’t pay the tribute, I will kill you in minutes!

Later...the fan club became more and more profitable.

Some fan circle application apps came into being, such as Owhat, Modian, Super Star Fan Club, Idol, Yizhiyu and so on.

In 2016, the fan circle platform Owhat completed its A+ round of financing with a total amount of tens of millions; in 2018, the Yizhiyu platform received a seed round of financing of millions of yuan.

In 2018, Owhat reached cooperation with more than 300 entertainment companies, with paying users accounting for more than 50% of registered users and the average annual consumption of a single fan exceeding 500 yuan; the monthly turnover of the entertainment platform has also reached 300 million yuan.

These platforms, backed by first-tier brands such as JD.com, Penguin, Vipshop, and Tmall, have attracted numerous "idol" fans in wave after wave.

Later, fan circles became so profitable that iQiyi, Youku and Tencent also started fan circles, with various charts, support, cloud bookings, popularity, and topicality...

When Li Mingyang was rotating at Penguin Video, he came into contact with fan circle traffic, which was really profitable.

Li Mingyang also wants to reap the benefits of his fans bit by bit.

But he's going abroad soon! In less than a month!

His overseas streaming plan requires a huge sum of money, and he will not be able to get rid of the financial dilemma without drastic cuts.

Xie Lan said that he felt like he would run away after doing this job!
It feels right!
Li Mingyang just wanted to finish this job and run away!
He doesn't endorse or do business, just to make a big profit from the big companies.

But now public opinion on him is very bad, almost like a bad artist, so naturally he has lost all endorsements.

Weathering With You is even worse, it was already dark before it even came out, and everyone was predicting its doom and gloom.

I can only lose fans like crazy.

Li Mingyang returned to his office and paid close attention to online public opinion.

At the same time, he called Wang Changtian every half hour to inquire about the concert sales.

Release materials about the concert based on sales.

Stimulate fan consumption.
