Chapter 588 Be Low-key in Life and Work
"Morning, Sister Rong."
Early on Tuesday morning, Liu Yanyan got up with dark circles under her eyes, yawned, and greeted Sister Rong who was busy in the restaurant.
"Good morning, you can have breakfast after washing up."
Seeing that even a loose long skirt couldn't hide her conspicuous height, Li Rong looked at her enviously and said with a smile.
"Sister Rong, is he gone?"
Looking around, Liu Yanyan looked at the radiant Sister Rong and spoke in a low voice.
"I'm leaving."
Looking at the other person's nervous look with some amusement, Li Rong changed the subject: "What big news did you shout about last night?"
"Ah, this, let me tell you, the leading company in our domestic film and television industry is Blue Whale Entertainment. By the way, Sister Rong, it seems that your agency contract is also with Blue Whale Entertainment, right?"
Thinking of the scene she saw last night, Liu Yanyan blushed subconsciously. After forcibly dispelling the crowd, she vividly described the big news she saw on Weibo last night.
"Shocked! The head of Liunian Entertainment claimed that the company's 500 million investment in a science fiction film will definitely surpass the other two science fiction films, without a doubt."
"Shocked!!! Liunian Entertainment's CEO shouted from afar, threatening to join the gambling agreement between Huang's Pictures and Blue Whale Entertainment."
"Shocked!!!! What made a billionaire place a huge bet???"
"Shocked!!!! Who will win the billion-dollar bet?"
Early in the morning, many netizens saw big news about an unknown company, Liunian Entertainment, on the entertainment news of major websites and the homepage of portal websites.
Including the celebrity micro-channel that has become a daily routine for young white-collar workers to check in the morning, news about Liunian Entertainment also quickly made it to the day's hot search list.
That unknown company with no background spent money on the list without hesitation.
All kinds of sensational news soon caught the eyes of countless netizens.
When many people in the entertainment industry were still discussing the big move of the leading big brother last night, they were shocked by the big news of Liunian Entertainment.
But, it was only a shock for a moment.
"Boss, early this morning, our company has been flooded with calls from people who want to invest in it."
Sheng Liunian, who walked into the company gate with a cigar in his mouth, heard the beautiful secretary's delicate report, and couldn't help but pat the other party's advantageous position, and said with a smile: "Boss, is my strategy good?"
"The boss is so wise."
The beautiful secretary glanced at her boss who had a smirk on his face and gave him a compliment very tactfully.
Just as Sheng Liunian walked into the general manager's office, a subordinate walked in quickly: "Boss, Jiang Chuan and Chengfeng called to ask if our gambling agreement with Huang and Blue Whale is true, and whether we should make additional investments?"
"Ignore those idiots. Let's just shout and collect some money from investors. Only if they have a brain drain will they actually sign a bet agreement."
Waving his hands, Sheng Liunian pinched the beautiful secretary and cursed, telling the vice president to get out of the office quickly so as not to affect his morning exercises which were in a good mood.
".This is roughly the current situation."
At this time, several shareholders of Blue Whale Entertainment were sitting in the conference room, drinking coffee quietly.
Chi Rui, the assistant to the general manager, reported in her magnetic voice the preparations for the science fiction film to be produced by Huang's Pictures.
As long as you are willing to spend money, you can find out everything that is going on in the circle.
"It seems like they really spent a lot of money this time. The cost of hiring a Hollywood team is not low. Adding the salaries of the main actors, the cost is estimated to be over 200 million."
After listening to Chi Rui's report, Feng Jiming sighed.
Although their company said the investment was 300 million, and the total was definitely more than that, Feng Jiming did feel a little sense of urgency as several major film and television companies that had long been accustomed to falsifying figures and deceiving shareholders actually invested real money in a science fiction film with an uncertain future.
However, facing the invincible plan of a certain major shareholder, Feng Jiming is confident that he can defeat any paper tiger.
"The stock market value of Huang's Pictures has increased by more than 2 billion these days. This little bit of money is nothing."
While drinking coffee, Li Shucheng lightly spoke of the nature of capitalists.
How could those big companies do something that has no benefits? They are the kind of people who won't do anything until they see the rabbit.
"Don't worry about what the other party does. Our company's production team must do a good job of ensuring that they are not held back."
Yu Xianer, who is in charge of several companies, simply and clearly stated the company's current important tasks.
"I'm the one watching over there, no one will dare to hang the chain."
Feng Jiming, who attached great importance to this issue, made a guarantee.
Now with the addition of a lucrative gambling agreement, he has become even more concerned about Li Donglai's crew.
"In that case, let me give you my immature suggestion. We can discuss with Qianbao Group and Star Group to increase the number of 3D screens in their cinemas."
Since Huang's Pictures was coming on strong, Zhou Anan naturally couldn't just sit back and watch, so she came up with a plan to cut off the source of the problem.
What are the advantages of the science fiction films produced by their company? In addition to the director, plot, and special effects, the most important thing is the 3D mode, the prospects of which no one could have predicted.
Today, all the cinema chains in the country combined have only about 4,000 screens. How many of them are 3D screens?
You may not believe it, but the number of 3D screens in China today can be counted on two hands. This is why Li Donglai's request to use 3D technology to shoot a science fiction film was approved with Zhou An's full support.
People in the domestic film and television circles simply cannot see the crazy prospects of 3D movies, let alone absorb the 3D shooting technology that has just emerged abroad.
Only when foreign Hollywood 3D movies made money around the world would they stimulate theater owners to install 3D screens. Even after the phenomenal "Avatar" appeared, the number of 3D screens in China began to increase rapidly.
In the future, 90% of the screens in the country will be able to play 3D movies, which seems incredible even now.
"In this case, it would be better if we implement this plan next year."
After listening to Zhou Anan's strategy, Li Shucheng immediately found the key.
Signing a development agreement with the two major cinema chain developers is undoubtedly telling their opponents their true strategy.
Anyway, this science fiction film cannot be completed in a year or two, so we might as well wait until next year to implement it, which can also shorten the opponent's reaction time.
"I agree."
"I don't object."
Soon, Li Shucheng's suggestion was passed unanimously, and Zhou Anan's constructive opinions were kept as one of the important secrets for the company's development next year.
"By the way, what do you think about the news about Liunian Entertainment?"
After finishing her business, Yu Xianer talked about the entertainment news she saw on the way to the company.
"We haven't received any news from the other party. We can tell at a glance that they are trying to deceive those investors."
As the general manager in charge of company affairs, Feng Jiming naturally knew the tricks of the shell company, which was nothing more than making big news to cheat investors' money.
In any case, it is the investors' money that is lost in the end, and operators like Liunian Entertainment only make profits and never lose money.
"Otherwise, I'll have someone check it out."
Yu Xian'er frowned, she still disliked this despicable person who was trying to gain personal benefits through unconventional means.
"It's impossible to find out. Even if we want to find out, there's no real evidence. This time they did take out money and cooperate with several companies."
Regarding this, Feng Jiming explained the operating procedures of Liunian Entertainment and told Miss Yu not to waste time.
Zhou Anan, who was listening on the side, felt ashamed for the capitalists who had no regard for propriety, morality, and integrity, but she was powerless to do anything.
That being said, even if their celebrities revealed the capital secrets of Liunian Entertainment on Weibo, not many netizens would believe it, as interests are enough to blind everyone.
Moreover, Liunian Entertainment is also the sponsor of the celebrity micro-guest hot search list, and it is estimated that it has spent about 7 to 8 million yuan.
"In that case, I'll say hello to the head prosecutor in Pengcheng and ask them to keep a close eye on it."
After listening to General Manager Feng, Yu Xianer, who was a little angry, said something casually.
In this regard, Feng Jiming could only silently mourn for the CEO of Liunian Entertainment for a few seconds, and then started a new topic: "In two days, I will go to North America to officially sign the contract. Do you want to promote it in China?"
