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

Chapter 194 When Huan returns to her mother's house

"Wulin Biography", "The Legend of Condor Heroes", and "Dragon and Babu", these three TV series have become more and more popular after Tianming Film and Television released them. These three dramas have their own traffic, and Lu Ming and the others saved a lot of effort when promoting them.

As these three dramas become more and more popular, the number of users of Tianming Film and Television is increasing, but there is still no charge for the previous film and television dramas of Tianming Film and Television. At most, it is used to decorate the facade, and it has no commercial value at all. Free will always be free, and there is no need to charge.

Although the development of Tianming Film and Television is getting better and better, Lu Ming has always had a stone in his heart, and that is the problem of movies.

Today, the theater chains across the country have basically been divided up by the two major groups. Even if they have not been divided up, they are those in small cities. Movie theaters in small cities have gradually declined, and young people in those small counties have not gone to movie theaters. Get used to watching movies.

Now if Tianmeng Company wants to make movies to make money, it is basically impossible. After all, there are no movie theaters, and there is no place to show the movies they make, and they can't sell at the box office.

But nowadays, the quickest way to make money is definitely to make movies. If a blockbuster movie can be made, then the profit of a movie is basically equivalent to all the profits of the TV series that Lu Ming and the others are making now.

Compared to making TV series, Lu Ming definitely wants to make movies, but the key now is how to sell the movies.

In fact, Lu Ming already had an idea in his mind, that is to set up an online movie theater directly.

Nowadays, people spend less and less time watching movies. Many people have no holidays on weekends. Their only time for leisure and entertainment is the short one or two hours after get off work at night.

For this group of people, going to the cinema to watch movies is better than watching TV dramas or playing games at home. In this day and age, many of those who still go to the cinema to watch movies are students or people who are in a relationship.

Lu Ming thought that since those people don’t have time to go to the cinema to watch movies, it’s better to move the movies directly to people’s homes and set up an online cinema directly, and they still have their own platform now, and they can also reduce movie tickets appropriately As for whether people like this method, Lu Ming thinks that people will like it. As long as it is not a blockbuster with special effects, watching it at home is actually no different from watching it in a movie theater. Watching it in a movie theater is actually more about the atmosphere.

After having this idea, the next step is to implement it, but now Lu Ming is more worried that if he engages in online cinema now, his old father-in-law will definitely come to trouble him. Don't even think about it.

Shiyue Group bought so many movie theaters recently, but in the end they went to set up online movie theaters to change people's movie viewing habits. Wouldn't the movie theaters they bought just fall into their hands?

Once the audience's habits are changed, it is difficult to change them back, especially this kind of change that can save people's time and make people's leisure more convenient.

Of course, Lu Ming also knows that even with the development of online movie theaters, offline movie theaters will still exist. After all, movie theaters have a unique atmosphere, which is very difficult to create at home.

However, once online movie theaters develop, the number of movie theaters will definitely decline, which is beyond doubt.

After thinking about it, Lu Ming decided to follow his own plan. His father-in-law suppressed him first, so he can't be blamed for being ruthless.

Online cinema must be done, and it must be done well. Only if it is done well, can Tianmeng Company get a share of the movie market.

Monday.

Tianmeng Company, conference room.

Early this morning, the employees came to the meeting room. They would hold a meeting every Monday. Lu Ming would not talk nonsense in the meeting, mainly to arrange the work for this week.

During the meeting, Lu Ming first talked about the things to be done this week. After the work was arranged, he did not let the employees leave immediately.

Seeing that Lu Ming had finished arranging work and hadn't let people leave, the employees were very confused. At this time, Lu Ming said, "You should have noticed that this meeting is different from the previous morning meetings today."

Hearing that, people thought, what's the difference?Could it be that what Lu Ming was talking about was the meeting between Tianmeng Company and Tianming Film and Television employees?Isn't it just that there are some more people in this meeting, what's so strange about it.

Both of their companies knew very well that although they did not work together, nor did they operate together when the company was in operation, they were both Lu Ming's companies, so it was not surprising that Lu Ming called them together for a meeting.

At this time, Lu Ming said with a smile: "It seems that you have already discovered what is different today."

"Yes, when I arranged the work today, I arranged the work of the two companies together."

Speaking of this, Lu Ming glanced at the staff in the meeting room, and then continued: "I plan to completely merge Tianming Film and Television into one company, and no longer operate independently."

Hearing this, people were stunned. Although there is no difference between the two companies and one company, the direct merger may cause many problems.

The positions of the two companies are already fixed. For example, the two companies have their own managers. If they are merged together, so many managers will not be needed. Doesn't this mean layoffs?
Could it be that what Lu Ming really wanted to talk about in today's meeting was layoffs?
Thinking of this, people began to get nervous.

After all, the development of the film and television industry has been going downhill. In recent years, there is not much capital willing to enter this industry. In this industry, apart from the two major groups, there are few companies that have such good treatment as Tianmeng Company and Tianming Film and Television.

If they are laid off, it is estimated that they will never find such a good company again.

Just when the employees were worried about Lu Ming's layoffs, Lu Ming continued: "After the integration of Tianmeng Company and Tianming Film and Television, Tianming Film and Television will exist as a separate department, and the positions of all employees will not change."

Hearing this, people breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was a separate department, but fortunately it was not fully integrated. If it was fully integrated, many people in their company would have nothing to do.

In fact, the worries of the employees are completely unnecessary, because not only will Lu Ming not lay off employees, but he will also continue to expand enrollment. This number of employees is not enough to support the rapid development of Tianmeng Company.

After Lu Ming finished speaking, he glanced at the people, and then said with a smile on his face: "If you have any opinions, you can raise them now."

After the voice fell, Lu Ming fell into silence, did not continue to speak, and waited for the employees to speak.

But at this time, no employees raised their opinions. They are all afraid that merging the company will lead to layoffs, so no one is willing to jump out to attract attention. What if Lu Ming only picks out those employees who raised opinions to be laid off.

This kind of thing is not uncommon. Many bosses can't understand those employees who have a lot of opinions all day long.

Although Lu Ming took the initiative to ask them to raise their opinions today, who knows what the boss is thinking, what if he just wants to see who has more opinions, and then find those employees who have more opinions to be laid off? Yes, so don't talk if you can. Talking nonsense will not end well.

Seeing that no employees had any comments, Lu Ming said: "Since there are no comments, let's end today's meeting here, and then you will prepare for the company merger."

After finishing speaking, Lu Ming put away his laptop and left the conference room.

Originally, he planned to talk about Tianmeng Company's plan to develop an online theater, but considering that Tianmeng Company and Tianming Film and Television had not merged, some matters could not be negotiated together, so he decided to postpone it for a while before telling the company's employees them.

He can let the programmers of Tianming Film and Television write out the functions of the online theater in advance, and then they will change the server. After their movie is shot, he will come to promote the online theater at that time, so as to avoid leaking the news in advance .

If the news leaked ahead of time, the other two big groups would definitely find ways to make trouble for him. This is not a good thing, so it's better to keep a low profile first.

at dusk.

After Lu Ming returned home, he found that Shi Huan hadn't come back earlier than him today. Usually, Shi Huan came home before him, and rarely arrived home after him, especially recently. After that, he actually came back late every night.

At this time, Lu Ming took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and found that it was more than seven o'clock, Lu Ming was a little confused, why Shi Huan didn't come back so late today, could something have happened, for example, Shen Yunfeng ran away again harassed her.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming frowned.

Immediately, he was going to make a call to Shi Huan to see if she had anything to do today.

Just when he was thinking this way, his phone rang suddenly. Lu Ming saw that it was Shi Huan calling, so he immediately connected the phone.

After the call was connected, Shi Huan said, "Lu Ming, I'm at my parents' house now, you can eat dinner first, so you don't have to wait for me."

Hearing this, Lu Ming asked suspiciously: "Is there anything your parents want from you?"

Shi Huan replied, "It's nothing, my sister is back today."

Lu Ming suddenly realized that this was the matter, and he thought that Shi Huan was in some danger, and that it was fine for Shi Huan to have nothing to do.

Then Lu Ming said: "Well, I won't wait for you, by the way, are you coming back tonight?"

Shi Huan thought for a while, and then said: "Let's watch it later. If it's too late, I won't be back. If it's still early, I'll be back."

Shi Huan's parents are still relatively far away from their home, and they have to drive for an hour or two. If it is too late, then there is definitely no need for her to come back.

Lu Ming said: "Okay, that's it, I'll hang up first."

Having said that, Lu Ming hung up the phone, and then went back to the bedroom to take a shower.

After walking to the bedroom, seeing the empty room, Lu Ming instantly felt a little unaccustomed to it. Before returning home every night, Shi Huan was there, but today Shi Huan suddenly returned to her mother's house, and he felt uncomfortable all over.

Of course, he didn't think that Shi Huan should not go back to her mother's house, but without Shi Huan, the whole house would look very deserted.

Lu Ming sighed, took a bath first, and then went downstairs to eat. Fortunately, Feng Meiyun didn't go back to her mother's house with Shi Huan, otherwise he might have to cook his own dinner tonight.

After dinner, Lu Ming came to the computer and began to write a new script. The script he wrote this time was no longer a film and television drama to be shot in China, but a film and television drama he planned to shoot abroad, such as "Spiderman" Iron Man and Transformers and stuff like that.

There are actually very few such films abroad. Although there is a market in China, Lu Ming plans to go abroad to test the waters first to see if he can occupy a certain market share abroad. If he can gain a firm foothold abroad, the development of Tianmeng Company will be It will be smoother, no one can stop them, not even the two major groups.

at the same time.

Shihuan's parents' house.

Shi Huan and his family haven't had dinner together for a long time, and today's dinner seemed rather heavy. They hardly spoke when they ate, and when Shi Huan happily finished eating, Shi just said: "Xiao Huan, The work in Dreamland should be easy recently, right?"

Seeing her father asking about the Dreamland, Shi Huan felt a little confused, what was he doing asking this at this time, could it be that he planned to increase her workload?
But didn't he want him and Lu Ming to have a baby some time ago?He shouldn't increase her workload, right?

Shi Huan replied at this time: "Well, there is only one film and television drama being filmed, nothing to do."

After hearing this, Shi Tian said: "If there is nothing to do in Dreamland, you can help Lu Ming when you are free. Their company has expanded rapidly recently, so it should be very busy, and he is just a new company. He himself has no management experience."

When Shi Tian said this, Shi Huan was stunned. She had to think that her father would let her take the initiative to help Lu Ming.

How is this going?

Isn't he very opposed to Lu Ming's entry into the entertainment industry? Why does he let himself take the initiative to help Lu Ming now?What kind of medicine is sold in my father's gourd?She was a little confused.

Shi Tian continued: "I know you have no interest in managing the Shiyue Group, so I plan to let your sister inherit the Shiyue Group in the future, so you don't have to worry about Shiyue Group in the future."

After saying this, Shi Huan and Shi Yue were stunned at the same time.

After regaining consciousness, Shiyue hurriedly said: "Dad, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to let me manage Shiyue Group?"

Shiyue herself is used to being carefree, and she doesn't like restraint very much. If she is allowed to manage the company, Shiyue Group may go bankrupt within two days.

At this time, Shi Tian looked at Shi Yue and said: "You still have enough time to study, and you don't have a boyfriend yet, your sister is already married, and her mind is on Lu Ming, let your sister manage the company , she will be influenced by Lu Ming to a certain extent, but you won't now."

"In addition, in exchange for your management of Shiyue Group, I will not interfere with your marriage, but our Shi family needs a son-in-law at home, and you should be very clear why."

Hearing her father's condition, Shiyue instantly became interested. As we all know, the children of such a wealthy family cannot make their own decisions in their marriage. Her sister is a precedent. If she can make her own decisions in her marriage, then she will I can pursue the happiness I want, unlike my sister who is arranged to marry someone I don't want to marry.

Thinking of this, Shiyue immediately said: "Okay, I agree."

Speaking of this, Shi Yue looked at Shi Huan, although she agreed in her heart, but the heir of Shi Yue Group was her sister after all, she just snatched this position away, her sister might give birth to her gas.

But she glanced at her sister's face, she didn't seem to care at all, at this time Shi Huan came back to her senses, she said to Shi Tian with a smile: "Dad, thank you for helping me."
