My wife always wants me, a big star, to eat soft rice

Chapter 170 Shi Huan's Sense of Crisis
Under normal circumstances, the paid data of a TV series will not be put on the Internet casually, unless a listed company tells investors that their company has great potential in order to attract investment.

Tianming Films put the paid data of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" online. From Shi Tian's point of view, Lu Ming wanted to slap him in the face for another reason besides getting sponsorship.

1000 million paying people, this is not a small number, it is very difficult for most TV dramas to achieve this result, and it is still within a day.

Although the film and television platforms of Shiyue Group often have TV dramas with billions of views, Shi Tian, ​​as an insider, knows that these data dramas are problematic. Some TV dramas with billions of views, the latest episode The number of paying people is no more than 100 million.

Capital likes to exaggerate data, which is a routine operation, especially for listed companies, they like to falsify data and then raise their stock prices.

Shi Tian couldn't figure out why Xu Mulin took on Lu Ming's drama again. Logically speaking, Lu Ming didn't have any resources or advantages in the entertainment industry. Although he was his son-in-law, Shiyue Group had already banned him Without Lu Ming, Lu Ming's development in the entertainment industry will be very difficult, why does Xu Mulin cooperate with him at this time.

For a director of Xu Mulin's level, filming is definitely not just for money. If he really wanted to make money, he would have done it alone.

For the director Xu Mulin, Shi Tian felt a little headache. Could this guy be deliberately confronting him? Otherwise, why would he cooperate with a brat like Lu Ming?

Now the problem is a bit tricky. Even though Lu Ming is suppressed by the two big groups, he can still develop, and he even has his own platform.

If this guy is allowed to develop, then they will definitely not be able to control Lu Ming anymore.

From the looks of it, we have to find a way, and we can't let this guy Lu Ming develop.

At this time, Shi Tian put the phone aside, put his hands under his chin, and propped his elbows on the table, lost in thought.

The popularity of TV series produced by Tianmeng Company is largely due to the presence of Xu Mulin. After all, Xu Mulin is a veteran director in the film and television industry. For film and television dramas, no matter what type of film and television drama it is, the audience will go to cheer it on.

The entire Tianmeng Company, if Xu Mulin, an outside director, is excluded, there is basically no attraction.

It's not that Tianmeng Company has not filmed other film and television dramas. "Spring Brilliant Pig Bajie" was also filmed by their company, but as far as it is concerned, the popularity of this TV series is not very good, and the data is not very good. Unlike "Legend of Sword and Fairy" "Biography", just one episode came out, and the number of people who paid for it broke through tens of millions in less than a day.

From Shi Tian's point of view, Xu Mulin has a great contribution. If Xu Mulin and Tianmeng Company can be prevented from cooperating, Tianmeng Company will definitely not be able to achieve the current results.

But having said that, how can we stop Xu Mulin from helping Lu Ming?
Last time he told Xu Mulin that he didn't want Lu Ming to develop in the entertainment circle, Xu Mulin should be very clear about his attitude.

But in this case, Xu Mulin still cooperated with Tianmeng Company to shoot "Legend of Sword and Fairy", which shows that Xu Mulin didn't intend to give him face at all.

If you are in the entertainment industry, you can't avoid dealing with Shiyue Group. Xu Mulin risked offending him by cooperating with his son-in-law. Shi Tian couldn't understand this.

Of course, considering Xu Mulin's current status in the film and television industry, there is no need to give him face.

This is a rather troublesome matter. If Xu Mulin and Lu Ming cooperate for a long time, it will inevitably bring a large number of users to the film and television platform under Tianmeng Company. This is not a good thing for Shiyue Group. Then a new competitor appeared.

But having said that, if Tianmeng Company has not been listed, it will be difficult to develop only by relying on Xu Mulin, a great director. It will cost more money, the money earned by a TV series is not enough for their promotion expenses.

So if you want to develop better and faster, going public is the only option. Shi Tian now doubts that Lu Ming is preparing for the listing, otherwise his company will not send out the data of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" and send the data Sending it out is actually telling people that their company has huge investment potential.

If Tianmeng Company goes public and goes to the stock market to raise funds to burn money, then Lu Ming will become a runaway wild horse, and the Shi family will no longer be able to control him.

At this time, Shi Tian rubbed his temples, his son-in-law was really troublesome, he wanted to leave him alone and let him do whatever he wanted.

Of course, he couldn't ignore it. After all, this guy might mess around in the entertainment industry just like him when he was young. Then her daughter might suffer a lot of grievances.

With his own lessons learned, there are some things that have to be guarded against. Even if Lu Ming's wings are hardened now, he should be suppressed or suppressed.

at the same time.

Tianmeng Media, Chairman's Office.

Sitting in front of his desk, Lu Ming looked at the data of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" again. Tomorrow they are going to film in a place outside Jiangnan City, so today they took a day off and did not film.

Lu Ming is not worried that there will be no one to manage the company after he leaves. Now their company has become more and more mature, and the division of labor in the team has become more and more clear. People know what they should do, so even if he leaves the company, the entire company It can still run.

At this time, Lu Ming was immersed in the joy brought to him by the success of "Legend of Sword and Fairy". He is very happy now. He did not expect that "Legend of Sword and Fairy" could have such good data. If "Legend of Sword and Fairy" still has such data until the last episode, it will definitely bring a lot of users to Tianming Film and Television.

At the same time, even if "Legend of Sword and Fairy" does not find a sponsor, their TV series can still achieve profitability, and the number of paying users has exceeded 1000 million. With such a large number of paying people, it is not a problem to earn hundreds of millions or more than one billion.

Of course, Lu Ming knows very well that this TV series will definitely not only earn such a small amount of money in the end. The way TV series make profits nowadays is not mainly through payment, but mainly through the advertising revenue brought by the traffic of the TV series.

Their TV series has such a large amount of traffic, it won't be long before many advertisers will come to them and ask them to advertise.

Just when Lu Ming was thinking this way, Liu Mengmeng came in, and she said to Lu Ming: "Director Lu, is someone looking for you from Yuedong Games?"

Hearing this, Lu Ming asked suspiciously: "Yuedong Games? What are they looking for me for?"

After the voice fell, Lu Ming himself realized that "Legend of Sword and Fairy" seems to be an adaptation of a game. Now that "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is popular in this world, it can also be adapted into an online game in reverse. This TV series is very popular on the Internet. This is a phenomenon-level big IP. It will definitely make a lot of money if it is made into a game, so it is very likely that Yuedong Games wants to cooperate with them.

After reacting, Lu Ming immediately got up from his seat, and then continued to ask: "Where are they now?"

Liu Mengmeng replied, "I have asked them to wait for you in the conference room.

After Liu Mengmeng finished speaking, Lu Ming immediately walked towards the door, and after a while, he came to the conference room.

There were three people in the meeting room at this time, and they were whispering. It seemed that they were preparing for the negotiation.

After seeing Lu Ming coming in, the three of them immediately stood up and did not continue to whisper.

At this time, the young man in the blue suit came to Lu Ming, and said, "Director Lu, we came here rashly, didn't we disturb your filming?"

Hearing this, Lu Ming smiled. This is probably not a rash visit. They happened not to be filming today. How could it be such a coincidence? This shows that they have already inquired about their rest time.

Lu Ming walked up to the man in the blue suit, shook hands with him, and said, "We just have a rest today, and we didn't film."

Speaking of this, Lu Ming made a gesture of please sit down, and then said: "Please sit down."

Immediately, the two sat down.

At this time, the man in the blue suit introduced himself: "Director Lu, let me introduce myself first. My name is Sun Pengfei, and I am the general manager of the marketing department of Yuedong Games."

Lu Ming smiled and asked, "I don't know if Mr. Sun came to see me today because of the game adaptation of the TV series Legend of Sword and Fairy?"

Hearing this, Sun Pengfei was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the other party would guess their reason for coming.

After he came back to his senses, a faint smile appeared on his face, and then he said: "Since Director Lu has already guessed it, it will be much easier to handle."

Speaking of this, Sun Pengfei directly took out a document from his briefcase, and continued: "This is the plan we have already written. If Director Lu has an idea for cooperation, we can cooperate at any time."

"As for the profit sharing, we have chosen the most reasonable sharing ratio in the film and television IP market. This plan has all the above. Director Lu, you can take a look first. I believe you should be very interested."

Lu Ming smiled, the work efficiency of Yuedong Game Company is so high, he has not agreed to cooperate yet, these guys actually wrote out the specific cooperation plan.

Immediately, Lu Ming took over the cooperation proposal from Sun Pengfei, and took a serious look at it.

This cooperation plan is very simple, just give them the script, let their actors shoot some promotional videos, and then authorize Yuedong Games to adapt the game of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", that's all.

Lu Ming and the others don't need to do anything other than acting in game promotional videos and dubbing game characters. Game production and publicity are all the work of Yuedong Game Company.

This cooperation is relatively worry-free, and their share is quite a lot, with a 50.00% profit share. Of course, Yuedong Games will also give Tianmeng a license fee before the profit share.

It can be said that Yuedong Games still has sincerity in cooperation.

After thinking for a while, Lu Ming said, "Your cooperation plan is very good."

Hearing this, Sun Pengfei immediately said: "Director Lu, you mean you agreed to cooperate with us?"

Lu Ming replied, "Well, our Tianmeng Company is willing to cooperate. After all, it is a matter of making money. There is no need not to agree."

Sun Pengfei was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the other party to agree so easily, he thought that Lu Ming and the others would have other conditions.

In fact, Lu Ming has an assessment of the conditions provided by Yuedong Games. In his opinion, which conditions are already very good, and Yuedong Games is the largest game company in China. It is a great way to make money by cooperating with them to develop a game. There must be no problem. They can make tens of billions a year by developing a game casually. Although the game adapted from "Legend of Sword and Fairy" may not be able to make tens of billions, it will be divided into hundreds of millions or billions by then. There is certainly nothing wrong with profits.

The most important thing is that Tianmeng Company is now going to open up the road of film and television adaptation, so that their company has more ways to make money. Only when there are more ways to make money, can Tianmeng Company make more money and burn Only by burning can it continue to develop.

There is no problem in cooperating with Yuedong Games, as long as Yuedong Games does not mess with profits.

After Sun Pengfei came back to his senses, he quickly said: "Director Lu, if you agree with our cooperation plan, then we will sign the contract tomorrow. What do you think?"

Lu Ming replied, "Not tomorrow."

Hearing this, Sun Pengfei was stunned again, unexpectedly he had already agreed, why not tomorrow?Could it be that Lu Ming has also made appointments with other game companies, wanting to make a money comparison?See whose conditions are better, and then choose who?

Sun Pengfei knew very well in his heart that for such a popular TV series as "Legend of Sword and Fairy", there will definitely be other game companies eyeing it, which is inevitable.

Just when Sun Pengfei thought that Lu Ming wanted Qianbisanjia, Lu Ming continued: "If you want to sign a contract, it's best to sign it today. Tomorrow we're going to film in another city, and we don't have time."

Sun Pengfei realized in an instant that he was thinking too much, and then he said: "Okay, I'll call my colleagues and ask them to send over the cooperation contract."

Like this kind of cooperation contract for film and television drama adaptation games, Yuedong Games has a fixed style, and it only needs to be changed by Party B.

After that, they waited for about 10 minutes. The two parties confirmed the signing process and confirmed their identities, and then the contract was sent to them. Lu Ming also specially invited Sun Pengfei and the three of them to the tea room for a drink. Tea, drinking tea while waiting for the contract from the headquarters of Yuedong Games.

After the contract was sent, Lu Ming asked Liu Mengmeng to print out the contract, and then he looked at it carefully. After confirming that there was no problem, the two parties formally signed the cooperation contract.

Sun Pengfei has great power in Yuedong Games. This kind of cooperation only needs his signature, not the chairman of Yuedong Games.

After signing the contract, Sun Pengfei and the others immediately returned to the company to prepare for making games, while Lu Ming also returned to the office and continued to work on his own affairs.

at dusk.

Lu Ming's house.

Shi Huan was sitting in front of the TV and was watching the latest episode of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" through Tianming Film and Television. At noon today, she saw the latest episode's hot search on the Internet.

The current "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has become so popular that every new episode can be searched, which is enough to show how popular this TV series is.

Although this TV series is so popular, it also caused some dissatisfaction with Shi Huan.

The reason is simple, because this TV series gave her a great sense of crisis. To be precise, it was the actors in "Legend of Sword and Fairy" who gave her a great sense of crisis.
