Entertainment: Starting from joining Kugou Video

Shanghai, backstage dressing room for a TV program.

Yang Chaoyue is participating in a TV program recording with Rocket Girls.

Before the show was recorded, Yang Chaoyue took a break and talked on the phone with Zhou Jieqiong, who was in South Korea.

"Sister Chaoyue, how have you been lately? Have you become even more popular?"

Zhou Jieqiong and Yang Chaoyue have a very good relationship now. After training, she will secretly take out her phone and call her.

Yang Chaoyue chuckled:

"Of course, although our characters didn't become huge hits, we still gained a certain level of recognition and popularity among the audience."

"Now, besides Rocket Girls, quite a few people are calling me by my character's name outside!"

"We're basically third-rate celebrities in the entertainment industry now."

Zhou Jieqiong was overjoyed to hear that Yang Chaoyue had become a minor sensation.

"Wow, that's great. It's a pity I'm still here undergoing training. I wonder if any of my little fans will ask for my autograph when I go back to China next time."

"However, I checked Weibo, and quite a few people are discussing me there. I'm really happy, and I'm grateful to Brother Tanglou for giving me this opportunity."

"When I return to China, I will definitely thank him properly."

This also gave Tanglou an opportunity.

Although the first season of "Go Fighting!" in the previous life was a huge hit and became the pinnacle of domestic variety shows, there was a huge hidden danger there.

After the first season aired, South Korean broadcaster MBC accused "Go Fighting!" of plagiarizing its program "Infinite Challenge". Due to this copyright dispute, "Go Fighting!" was ordered to stop airing by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, although it was later resumed under the guise of "programming adjustments".

However, the controversy was finally resolved by purchasing the rights to "Infinite Challenge".

In this life, because the "Go Fighting!" project was postponed, this bombshell hasn't been dropped yet.

Therefore, Tang Lou planned to seize the opportunity to first intercept the copyright of "Infinite Challenge", and then, through coercion and enticement, poach Yan Ming, the soul of the show.

Prior to this, given Tang Lou's personal status and influence, he certainly wouldn't have been qualified to negotiate with South Korea's MBC to purchase copyrights.

However, as the de facto head of the KuMiao Video studio and now in charge of two phenomenal projects, Tanglou has become a legend in the industry.

Tang Lou plans to buy the rights to "Infinite Challenge" again under the name of his sock factory, and then resell it to Cool Cat.

After all, "Go Fighting!" is an evergreen show, with each season being a classic, and the copyright is enough to sustain them for a long time.

Moreover, through "Produce 101", Tang Lou had already established very good relationships with Huang Bo, Zhang Yixing, and Show Lo.

If Yan Ming is dealt with, restarting the "Go Fighting!" project will be a logical next step!

In order to have enough funds to buy the copyright of "Infinite Challenge", Tang Lou directly pledged part of his shares in Jiaxing Media to obtain a loan of 50 million.

Afterwards, through connections within KuMiao, he commissioned a reliable third-party platform to assist him in making a trip to South Korea, and ultimately bought the copyright for ten million.

Having successfully acquired the rights to "Infinite Challenge," Tanglou now has sufficient capital and resources to negotiate with Yan Ming.

At that time, Yan Ming was still working at Dragon TV, so Tang Lou arranged to meet Yan Ming in Shanghai through some connections.

Yan Ming harbored a deep resentment and frustration towards Tang Lou. If Tang Lou hadn't poached Xiao Zhu and Zhang Yixing, his show would have already aired.

Therefore, Yan Ming had mixed feelings about this meeting, and he was also eager to know what Tang Lou wanted to see him about.

...

While Tang Lou was heading to Shanghai, the data for "Eternal Love" continued to grow steadily.

The number of new members joining KuMiao Video is also constantly setting new records.

The overwhelming data and terrifying power of "Eternal Love" have also made the heads of various video platforms panic.

This time, Gong Yu is really depressed.

Previously, with "The Lost Tomb", they finally made a name for themselves in the self-produced drama field and achieved great success. Unexpectedly, this time they were caught off guard by "Eternal Love".

With this drama, Coolcat's reputation and brand image for its self-produced dramas have been initially established, allowing it to truly gain a foothold.

Gong Yu was somewhat unconvinced: "Going forward, we will temporarily reduce our investment in variety shows and focus all our energy on producing our own dramas."

"Currently, self-produced dramas will be the lifeline of a video platform, and to remain invincible in this competition, content is king."

"This time, they really pulled it off. Next, we must produce even better web dramas to build up our kiwi fruit brand."

"Tang Lou will definitely be focusing on web dramas next. We need to surround and suppress his next project to curb his arrogance!"

Penguin Video.

The head of the self-produced drama department also looked very grim.

Although "Darker 2," which was originally highly anticipated, achieved perfect results, it was still crushed by "Eternal Love."

Originally, Tencent Video thought it could carve out a niche for itself with "Darker 2" and erode the market share of Youku. Who would have thought that Youku would still dominate the market, and the gap is even widening.

Fortunately, as Tencent's own subsidiary, it has ample funds and abundant resources. They are also preparing to increase investment and take revenge in this blue ocean market!

"This time, Tang Lou was lucky. He snatched the role from Lin Yufeng, a top director, and also encountered Dilraba's sudden rise to fame. He won't be so lucky with his next drama."
