Chapter 355 From Great Director to Media Tycoon! (The first update asks for a subscription! Ask for a monthly pass!)
"According to insiders of the Poly Group, the mergers and acquisitions of Tang An Film and Television Production Studio under the famous director Tang An and Poly Culture Media under the Poly Group are close to completion!"

"In one month, Tang An completed the perfect transformation from a great director to a media tycoon!"

"The acquisition of a large group by a small studio involves an amount of [-] million yuan, the largest M&A case of the year in the media industry!"

"It only took Tang An 5 years to grow from a new director to a media tycoon, and another giant in the film and television industry was born!"

"Exclusive reveal of Tang An's road to media tycoon"

"The youngest media tycoon was born, Tang An is only 29 years old!"

Although it has not been officially announced yet, Tang An raised a lot of cash, went to Poly Group many times, and brought a team of first-class lawyers in China. Even fools know what Tang An is going to do.

Not only the entertainment media followed up and reported, trying to get accurate news from inside Poly, but even the financial section followed suit.

After all, the real estate giant Poly Group is involved, and the other party is a director, and there is only one studio under it.

It is not too much to describe it as ants regretting elephants and snakes swallowing whales.

The media that were originally reporting some upcoming movies in the Lunar New Year file turned to the news that Tang An was going to acquire Poly Culture and other companies, leaving the melon eaters confused.

After figuring out what happened and what kind of company Poly Culture was, Tang An realized that Tang An was so lazy, and he jumped directly from a director to a big boss.

"Tang An is amazing, is this going to start working alone?"

"It's great to be your own boss, why don't you keep working for others."

"Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang are still helping others make money. Now Tang An has started his own company."

"Now that I'm the boss, will I still make movies in the future?"

"For sure, directing is his main job. If he doesn't make movies, then there will be one less movie to watch every year."

"Who's right? If you have money, you still work. Filming is also very tiring. Wouldn't it be nice to find a few directors to help you make money?"

"I'll go. If that's the case, I'd still like to wish Tang An the failure of his business and the bankruptcy of his company, and honestly make movies 23333~~~"

"The upstairs is too selfish, but I think so too"

On the second day after the merger was completed, the Poly Group issued a notice that it had officially sold all its subsidiaries such as Poly Culture, Dongfang Shenlong, and Qiansi Advertising to Tang An Film and Television Studio.

This is a real hammer, and the heat of this matter has once again reached a new height.

China Film Group, Han Sanping received a call from Tang An and said congratulations to him before hanging up.

"It's amazing." Han Sanping sighed.

In front of him, Lin Sheng asked suspiciously, "Han Dong, what's the matter with Tang An's call?"

Han Sanping shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing, just let me know, but I should call him Tang Dong from now on, Hantang Media Group, the name is pretty good."

Lin Sheng smiled wryly, "It's only been a few years, how young he was when he came to me with "Shark Beach", and now he actually bought a media company."

In 5 years, it is not slow to go from a team leader in the distribution department to the position of director, but in comparison, it is not enough.

Lin Sheng thought for a while and asked, "Then Director Han, what are you going to do?"

"How to do?"

"Do nothing." Han Sanping said with a smile.

"Then do you think Tang An can succeed? Wang Zhongjun is probably very angry now."

"Tang An has chosen a good time. Guangxian has already submitted its listing application to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. It should be listed in the second half of next year, and Bernard is about the same. Yu Dong still wants to list on DASDAQ. If it is a year earlier, Maybe the three of them will join forces to deal with Tang An, but now Yu Dong and Wang Changtian must be focusing on going public, allowing Tang An to take advantage of the loophole."

The film industry is so big, no one wants multiple people to share the cake.

Especially for a director like Tang An who has a strong box office appeal, as long as he establishes a publicity channel in two or three years, it will be difficult to move him, and he must be killed in the cradle.

But Bernard and Guang Xian are both going public now, and they must achieve good results. If they spend resources to deal with Tang An, the loss outweighs the gain.

He might even support Tang An in exchange for a part of the investment and distribution rights, so as to make his performance look better.

After all, after listing, it will not be a matter of hundreds of millions. A film with a box office record in film history is enough to impress stockholders and investors, causing the stock price to rise sharply.

Huayi Brothers Media Group Chairman's Office.

"Sorry, the phone you dialed is off!"

"Snapped!"

The phone fell heavily on the table, but Tang An still couldn't get through. Wang Zhongjun didn't know how many times he had called.

Lin Sheng was right, Wang Zhongjun was almost on the verge of rage, his fists were clenched tightly, and the word "anger" was clearly written on his face.

Seeing him like this, Wang Zhonglei on the opposite side quickly persuaded, "Brother, don't be angry. When he filmed "Partners in China" last year, didn't you suspect that he wanted to start a business?"

"And Tang An is not as old as Feng Xiaogang. You see, Binbin and Xiao Ming are going to open studios. How could Tang An stay in Huayi forever?"

Wang Zhongjun's anger eased a little, he gritted his teeth and said, "Can this be the same, now he clearly wants to enter the arena to share a piece of cake!"

Tang An's acquisition of a media company and the establishment of a studio are not of the same nature. Even if Feng Xiaogang wanted to leave Huayi and set up a studio independently, Wang Zhongjun would not stop him.

Because even if he makes a movie, it still needs Huayi's investment, not to mention publicity and distribution.

Now Tang An has made it clear that the entire industrial chain will be involved, and when it develops, it will be Huayi and Bernard again.

"Then why don't you meet with Yu Dong and Wang Changtian to discuss the solution?" Wang Zhonglei suggested.

"It's useless. The two of them regard listing as the most important thing. If they want to encircle Tang An, it will definitely affect their performance next year." Wang Zhongjun shook his head.

Wang Zhongjun has also been thinking about how to deal with it these days. Of course, he doesn't want to just watch Tang An grow bigger.

The best way is to snipe at all the movies he invested in next year. Tang An certainly doesn't have much money now, as long as the movie fails next year, a company with hundreds of people will quickly drag him down.

Sniping Tang An's movie from the announcement, schedule, and film schedule is very difficult for Huayi alone, and it is almost impossible to do it without the help of other people.

Wang Zhongjun sighed, and said helplessly, "Forget it, Tang An has also made a lot of contributions to Huayi in the past few years. Since he can't be killed, there is no need to waste his efforts. Let's talk about it when he comes. He must be short of funds now. See if he is willing to accept our capital injection."
