Chapter 239 July Chaos
Naturally, Meng Bai had to break the awkwardness.
He calmly took his arm out of Li Yitong's arms, took a step forward, and smiled naturally, "Why did Sister Ou come out?"
"Ah, I went to the bathroom."
There were more people near their private room, so she deliberately chose the one farther away.
Unexpectedly, she ran into this scene halfway.
Seeing that the atmosphere had relaxed, Li Yitong pursed her lips and hurriedly said, "I, I'll go back first."
As she said that, she and Wang Ou nodded, turned to Meng Bai, and silently mouthed "Wait for me in the evening", and then walked back quickly.
Meng Bai didn't plan to stay, and was about to say goodbye to Wang Ou, but he was stopped by the other party.
"Teacher Meng, it seems that I haven't heard much about the new project of the 'Green Vine Series' this year?"
Wang Ou's bright eyes flashed under the light.
"There was a problem before, but preparations have been restarted recently." Meng Bai said.
"Is that so..."
Wang Ou was a little curious about what went wrong, but since no one said it, it must be something within Arclight, so she didn't ask any more questions.
"I don't know what the story is this time, but I've always been a loyal fan of the 'Green Ivy Series'."
After that, she continued, "I wonder if there is a role that I can fit in. I've always wanted to work with Teacher Meng again."
As an actor who became famous in her thirties, Wang Ou knows that resources are something that cannot be obtained without actively seeking them.
So whether it was "Shirley Yang" last time or Arclight's new project this time, she has been actively striving for it.
Looking at the mature and beautiful lady in front of her, Meng Bai smiled and said, "There must be opportunities. There should be auditions for new projects in a while. Sister Ou can come and try then."
Arclight is going to shoot "Psychological Crime 2" next, and there is no suitable role for it. In "White Night Chase", there is a female second forensic doctor role that is more suitable.
But he didn't say it for sure, just that he could try it.
Wang Ou is not like Boss Li and Meng Bai will not rush to give people roles.
But for Wang Ou, hearing that there is an opportunity is already very satisfying.
Mingyan's face was full of moving brilliance. She smiled and said, "I don't know when it will start. I'll prepare in advance."
Meng Bai did not answer this question, but asked, "I remember today is the end of the month, June 30th?"
Wang Ou didn't understand, but nodded and said, "Yes, tomorrow will be July."
Meng Bai heard this and showed a strange smile on her face.
"Don't worry, Sister Ou, don't worry, you will soon know when it starts."
"Huh?"
——The
"silent period" agreed by Meng Bai and Boss Jia before was until the end of June.
This agreement is obvious, and the other party will definitely make a big move before then. Sure enough
, in early June, Leshi.com announced that the acquisition of LeTV Pictures officially entered the substantive stage, and the China Securities Regulatory Commission also issued an announcement that it would supervise this "10 billion merger and acquisition case."
At the same time, Leshi.com's stock, which had been suspended for half a year, announced that it would resume trading and resume secondary market trading.
In the call auction stage on the first day of resumption, as many as 200,000 sell orders locked Leshi.com's price at the limit down. But with the official opening, a huge amount of funds flowed in, forcibly prying open the limit down board.
In the following month, various good news continued to be released, and the stock price of Leshi.com also rose against the market trend and returned to the position of 100 yuan.
Although it cannot be compared with the peak period in the middle of last year, considering the current downward trend of the entire market, it is already very good.
Investors of Leshi.com, big or small, are all beaming with joy.
Although they have not made much money for the time being, it is much better than those who lose money outside.
Otherwise, it is said that human happiness is reflected by comparison.
Unfortunately, happy times always pass very quickly. In the midst of singing and dancing, June ended.
Meng Bai has always been a person who keeps his promises. If he says he will keep silent until the end of June, he will not be able to do it for a day less
. Similarly, he will not be able to do it for a day more.
July 1st, Friday, the last trading day of this week.
At 9:30 in the morning, the stock market opened, and the stock price of Leshi.com opened 0.1% higher, which is almost 1 cent.
Just when the stockholders who were slacking off at work and watching stocks thought that today was another day of playing with 1 cent, the K-line chart suddenly slid down and fell below the opening price.
Immediately afterwards, without waiting for anyone to react, Leshi.com's stock price plummeted.
From +0.1, it went straight to -7.9, a drop of eight percentage points.
The stockholders were stunned. Was there any big boss cashing out and running away? How could he suddenly be hit by a "soul-breaking knife"?
Looking at the data, there was no change in the fundamentals, and there were no large sell orders on the capital side. The only problem was the news.
Sure enough, after a while, someone forwarded a message to the discussion area.
[Arc Light Film and Television issued an announcement that it would terminate its cooperation with Leshi.com from now on due to serious differences in strategic planning and project creation. After friendly negotiations between the two parties, the "Green Ivy Series" IP and related authorizations of subsequent projects were all transferred to Arc Light Film and Television for independent responsibility. 】
Damn! Arc Light and Leshi.com "broke up"!
Not to mention stockholders and investors, the entire industry was shocked.
For a long time, the combination of "Arc Light Film and Television Content Production + Leshi.com Channel Platform" has firmly occupied the top spot in the online drama market.
The scene of "Forensic Qin Ming" topping the "2015 Online Drama Champion" is still fresh in my mind. I didn't expect that after not seeing each other for a few months, the two
companies actually separated. But then again, as a business cooperation, it is normal to break up and get back together.
For Arclight Films, the impact is actually not great.
The "Criminal Investigation Universe" derived from the "Green Ivy Series" has become the top IP of criminal investigation suspense online dramas in the past two years.
Without Leshi.com, many video platforms are scrambling to cooperate.
This is indeed the case. On the second day after the "breakup announcement" was released, Arclight Films' official Weibo released a series of new news.
[The summer movie "Detective Chinatown" will be incorporated into the "Green Ivy Criminal Investigation Universe". ]
[The new project of the "Green Ivy Series" "Psychological Crime 2" was officially launched, and the cooperation platform is Tencent Video, and it is positioned as S-level. ]
[The new project of the "Green Ivy Series" "White Night Chase" was officially launched, and the cooperation platform is Qiyi TV, and it is positioned as S+ level. ]
If it comes to the latter two online drama projects, everyone can still understand, but what the hell is this movie that suddenly popped up?
Many people began to search for information about "Detective Chinatown".
After checking, they found that this was the movie that was on the hot search during the Spring Festival because of the "cheating incident" of director Chen Sicheng.
Looking at the screenwriter column, as expected, it was "Meng Bai Dada" who has no rivals in the field of suspense film and television in recent years.
With the blessing of Meng Bai's script, and it was also the first film project of the "Green Ivy Series", the popularity and search volume of "Detective Chinatown" soared.
Chen Zhixi, Chen Sicheng and the producers were very happy. How much publicity costs can be saved this time.
The scenery on the Arclight Film and Television side is even better, but Leshi.com is a little bleak.
All kinds of gossip are prevalent in the market, such as "funding shortage", "early escape", "big store bullying customers", "big customers bullying store"...
true and false news are everywhere.
Fortunately, Leshi.com has been prepared for this situation.
On the one hand, they issued a rumor refutation stating that the two companies only stopped cooperation because of different cooperation concepts, and on the other hand, they stated that the website has many other high-quality partners.
At the same time, it also gave a new drama that will be broadcast in the second half of the year to show that it has sufficient content reserves.
The actual situation of the announced projects is unclear, but at least the stock price has stabilized for the time being.
After all, there is the annual drama "Go Princess Go", so the market will not completely lose confidence in Leshi.com.
However, many people still called Meng Bai to ask if there is any inside information.
For example, Huang Xiaoming, who is also one of the celebrity shareholders of Leshi.com, has invested more than 20 million yuan.
Then there is Ni Ni, this girl has also invested a sum of money with the wind before. Although it is not much, it is several million.
For Huang Xiaoming and others, Meng Bai directly stated that the termination of cooperation is for Arclight to have greater development and does not want to be tied to a platform.
This reason sounds very straightforward, but it immediately convinced everyone.
Or to be more precise, they are willing to believe this answer.
For Ni Ni, Meng Bai implicitly stated that Leshi.com may have some problems, and it is best to find an opportunity to run if it can.
After all, it can be regarded as a period of cooperation, and he will not deny it as soon as he puts on his pants.
As for whether the girl would listen or not, that was her own business, and Meng Bai didn't bother to care.
He had to go find his "true partner" Teacher Li.
