Chapter 501: Wanda Wang, Seeking Cooperation



Wei Yang, who had just finished filming and was removing his makeup, was a little confused when he heard the voice of his assistant Wei Fei.

"You heard it right. It was Wanda's Mr. Wang who came directly to our door."

"Why is he looking for me? Wanda Pictures is under his control?"

Although Wei Yang and Wang Dashao are both known as the "National Husband", they do not have much friendship in private, and they even have some minor grudges against each other.

Before Wang Xiaofei and Big S got married, Young Master Wang interfered and accidentally implicated Boss Wei, who sent him a lawyer's letter to warn him.

Because of this little dispute, although there is no enmity between the two sides, they ignore each other.

Wei Yang didn't have a good impression of Young Master Wang, and Young Master Wang probably also had a neutral impression of Wei Yang, or even felt disgusted with him.

This has been mentioned before. Wei Yang's popularity and reputation among the rich second generation is rather complicated. There are those who admire him, but more people hate him very much.

The reason is that he is very young and started from scratch. He can be regarded as a role model for young business people and is very prominent among entrepreneurs. I wonder how many business tycoons envy him.

The big guys don’t envy Wei Yang’s achievements, but they envy his age.

Entrepreneurs who can build industries of a certain scale are generally not too young. 30 years old can be considered young and promising, 40 years old is in the prime of life, but most entrepreneurs tend to reach the peak of their careers at the age of 50 or 60.

As for top billionaires like Wei Yang, it is rare to find one under 40 years old, even if the second generation is included.

Therefore, in the eyes of the wealthy people of the same level or even the second-tier, Wei Yang is already a son or even a grandson.

Others have built up such a fortune at a young age, and even they themselves are slightly inferior to it. When they look at their prodigal and mediocre sons, they feel really sad.

As a result, Wei Yang naturally became the "other people's child" in the eyes of many entrepreneurs.

Whenever he has nothing to do, he would sigh and say something like "If I had a son I would want to be like Wei Yang". If his son doesn't live up to his expectations, he would scold him and then use Wei Yang to criticize him, saying things like "If you had half of Wei Yang's ability, it would be worth it for me to die".

Most of the second-generation rich are arrogant and proud. It would be strange if they didn't have any opinion about Wei Yang when their fathers point fingers at them every day.

The two sides looked down on each other, and this group of people couldn't do anything to Wei Yang. Wei Yang was busy with work and didn't bother to pay attention to a group of irrelevant people, so everyone kept to themselves.

Wei Yang and Wang Dashao are in the same situation.

In Boss Wei's opinion, the only way for the two parties to form a connection is Wanda Films, but didn't Old Wang let his son start a business? Wait, start a business? Wei Yang suddenly reacted, and he seemed to understand the general purpose of Young Master Wang, but why did this guy have to find him?

"I'll go take a look."

Knowing that Wei Yang was filming and perhaps had a request for help, Young Master Wang and the others did not disturb him rashly, but waited in the hotel's reception room.

Wei Yang asked about the time and it was almost two hours. He was quite patient.

After entering the door, he saw that there were four people in Young Master Wang's group, three men and one woman, but Wei Yang didn't recognize any of them except the main person.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting, Mr. Wang. The crew is a bit busy."

"It's okay. We are sorry for coming here and disturbing Mr. Wei."

Here is Mr. Wang’s family background. I won’t talk about his father, but his mother is not an ordinary person. She received a good education since childhood. Later, she went abroad to study, and after returning, she was arranged to have various experiences.

He usually looks arrogant and has done some ridiculous things, but when it comes to dealing with people, his words and deeds are very methodical and he exudes an elite air.

Wei Yang had an average impression of Young Master Wang, and thought that many of the things he did were flawed, but he never thought that he was a prodigal son or a fool.

Although his business venture ultimately failed, there are still many commendable aspects to it, even a hint of bad luck.

A careful study reveals that many of his operations were actually quite clever, and he achieved considerable success at a certain stage. However, due to his personality, he was unable to truly monetize these operations and maintain them for long.

To put it bluntly, Mr. Wang has the ability, but he does not possess the excellent qualities of many entrepreneurs.

When the wind is in your favor, you will be unstoppable.

But fighting against the wind is often unsatisfactory.

No matter what, Mr. Wang’s father is the King of Wanda, which is also the number one cinema chain in China today. Even if you don’t look at the cover, Boss Wei still gives him enough courtesy.

After a brief greeting, Young Master Wang took the initiative to talk about the purpose of his visit, as he was still impatient and could not prevail over Wei Yang.

"Mr. Wei, this is the reason I came here today. I have a personal project and I want to work with you."

Wei Yangfeng's calm expression surprised Wang Dashao and others.

They didn't know that they had opened their third eye for the boss. The arrival of these people was indeed a bit sudden, and the cooperation was even more unexpected. According to the prediction before they came, Wei Yang must have been surprised regardless of whether he agreed or not.

No wonder the old man always praised Wei Yang at home. Apart from anything else, his demeanor was truly extraordinary.

Young Master Wang felt a bit of admiration for Boss Wei.

A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow! Mr. Wang and other rich second-generations are dissatisfied with Wei Yang, but his achievements and wealth are there.

Even though they say that Wei Yang is just lucky, they actually have a rough idea in their hearts. Let alone starting from scratch, even if they rely on their parents' help and can build half of Wei Yang's family business, the old man in the family would be so happy that he would snot.

So when he came this time, Young Master Wang didn't say anything on the surface, but when he really faced Wei Yang, he still felt a bit of pressure, and even unconsciously felt a head shorter than Wei Yang.

This young man, who was only one year older than him, was not one of those good-for-nothings who accompanied him in bars and drinks.

He is a ruthless man who has built his business from scratch and a leader of the younger generation of Chinese business.

Even if his father came in person, he would not treat Wei Yang as a junior. Although Wei Yang's wealth is far less than that of the Wang family, youth is his greatest asset.

It is better to bully an old man than a young man who is poor! Besides, Wei Yang is not poor at all. If you offend him, he will endure it while the older generation is alive. When the old man dies, the next generation will be punished by him.

Maybe it was for this reason that, although Wei Yang was the youngest among the many bigwigs, few people made things difficult for him for no reason. Some people were even quite friendly with him, and many bigwigs even called him a brother.

So strictly speaking, those rich second-generations who were unhappy with him behind his back had to call Wei Yang uncle when they saw him.

However, more big guys don't want to be his brothers, but want to be his father-in-law or elder on his wife's side.

Seriously, although Wei Yang has a "notorious" style and has had unclear relationships with several female stars.

But there are many people who want to adopt him as their son-in-law, including some business tycoons.

Everyone is very open-minded and well-informed. Having a woman is nothing. They are not married yet. Even Wei Yang has not made his relationship public, so it is nothing.

Every time Wei Yang attended some meetings, he would receive several invitations similar to blind dates, and some were even brought directly to meet people.

It’s no wonder that Wei Yang is not only popular among wealthy men, but also among rich girls.

With his good looks, talent and achievements, he is a typical prince charming and a perfect match.

As for being unfaithful, those second-generation rich people who are likely to arrange marriages are not much better. When it comes to being dissolute and romantic, these guys are much more promiscuous than Boss Wei.

There are also some rich girls who may not necessarily want to get married, but are willing to have a relationship with Boss Wei, or go out with him.

This is Asia’s top male god. He has achieved a great sense of accomplishment and even became a celebrity in the circle!

For all these reasons, Young Master Wang really didn't dare and didn't have the capital to put on airs in front of Wei Yang. Even when Wei Yang expressed his willingness to read the project book, he still felt a little nervous.

It was Panda Live that Mr. Wang approached him to cooperate with!

I have to say that Mr. Wang has some vision. The live streaming platform is indeed a blue ocean industry in the next few years.

In Wei Yang's impression, Panda Live had good development in the early stages and was expected to become a three-legged race with Huya and Douyu in the future, with a valuation of over tens of billions.

But Douyu and Huya are not easy to deal with. They have the giant Penguin behind them, and there are also several other companies such as Douyin, Kuaishou and Bilibili that have invaded the live streaming market.

The live streaming industry was too competitive in the later period, and before the rise of e-commerce live streaming, live streaming had never found a long-term and effective profit model.

After Huya and Douyu went public one after another and gained the upper hand, and after short video platforms such as Douyin and Kuaishou rose across the board and squeezed the market madly, Panda, which fell behind step by step, was on its way to its end.

And during this period, Wei Yang remembered that there were constant fights within the Panda Clan.

Wang Dashao is the major shareholder and the face of the website, but the actual operation is done by the 360 ​​team. In other words, Panda was divided into two factions from the very beginning.

The most powerful Mr. Wang does not have the actual operating rights, while 360, which is in charge, cannot control the key figure, Mr. Wang.

In this case, it would be fine if development went smoothly, but once setbacks occurred, it would easily lead to chaos.

In order to set up the group, Mr. Wang attracted a large number of shareholders, totaling more than a dozen.

These shareholders provided great help in the early stages of the platform's development, but in the later stages they also added fuel to the already chaotic situation.

And most importantly, internal chaos and lagging behind its competitors made Panda unable to attract funds in the later period.

You have to know that the live streaming platform did not have fixed profits at that time, and it relied entirely on spending money during the internal circulation period. Without funds, it was like fighting a war without bullets. They could only lie down and wait to be slaughtered.

Eventually, the once-popular Panda Brand came to an end, Wang Dashao’s business venture failed, he was laughed at by many people, and even became a deadbeat.

Wei Yang did not comment on Wang Dashao's entrepreneurial experience and the development of Panda Live, but it was obvious that he had no intention of getting involved.

Not to mention that pandas are born with congenital deficiencies, and are destined to have a bumpy life and find it difficult to achieve great things.

The key point is that Wei Yang already has two future live broadcast giants, Tik Tok and Bilibili. Even now, Green Crab under his name has invested in a live broadcast website, which is currently developing well. He has nothing better to do than to join in the fun of Young Master Wang.

Closing the plan, Wei Yang smiled apologetically: "I'm really sorry, I've already invested in live streaming..."

Upon hearing this, Young Master Wang and the others couldn't stop showing disappointment on their faces.

They looked for Wei Yang not because they were short of money, but because they were attracted by his reputation and the resources he had.

Why did Panda TV rise so quickly in the past? In addition to spending a lot of money to recruit anchors, it was largely due to the reputation of Mr. Wang.

Wang Dashao is quite popular! He can be said to be the most famous second-generation rich man in China, and even the number one internet celebrity.

Perhaps at the beginning, Mr. Wang was just trying to make his presence felt online, but later, as his fame and influence grew, he became clearly aware of his own power and began to build momentum for himself.

Even though he goes crazy in the entertainment industry, scolding this and criticizing that, and calling himself the "Disciplinary Committee Member of the Entertainment Industry," and offends many people, he has also attracted a large number of fans.

For example, this year, he targeted Huang Zitao, one of the four returning students, and he was slandering him online every day.

Not only did his exposure skyrocket, but he also received support from many netizens who dislike young and popular stars, and even those who are tired of Korean entertainment.

Why did he scold Huang Zitao? Because he was working alone and had no help since he just came back.

Lu Han, who is more popular but has the support of Boss Wei, has never seen Master Wang pick a fight with him.

In addition, the halo of "the son of the richest man" made him the object of envy, jealousy and hatred of countless people. Women wanted to marry him and men wanted to replace him.

With these halos and gimmicks, Wang Dashao's actual fame and influence are not inferior to those of first-line stars, and he is also keen on participating in the live broadcast circle.

By spending a lot of money, he became the biggest sponsor in the live broadcast circle. He has great appeal among the live broadcast fans and has made friends with a large group of anchors.

So after Panda Live was launched, Wang Dashao tied himself to Panda, and it became a "live streaming holy land", breaking the monopoly of major live streaming platforms and attracting a large number of anchors and fans.

At the same time, with Wanda behind him, Wang Dashao has great channel power and has invited a large number of celebrities to live broadcast on Panda.

Even ten years ago, there was a huge gap between celebrities and internet celebrities in the eyes of the public, let alone now.

No matter how popular the anchor is, he is still not as good as a celebrity. When a celebrity goes live, it can be said to be a dimensionality reduction attack. In an era when live streaming has not yet fully taken off, the novelty is immediately maximized.

Therefore, this is also what Young Master Wang values ​​most about Wei Yang.

No matter how famous his name is, it is not as famous as Boss Wei's. He became the National Husband because of his father, while Wei Yang relied on his personal conditions, not to mention Boss Wei's ability to turn stone into gold.

The numerous achievements show that the projects that Wei Yang personally participates in will not be bad.

Add to that the young Mr. Wang of Wanda, wow, this powerful combination will probably shake the capital circle, and all major investment institutions will probably rush to give money.

Moreover, Wei Yang has enough star resources. Young Master Wang can attract some stars with his old reputation, but Boss Wei has a large group of top stars at his disposal.

And because of their identities, the two have completely different say in front of celebrities.

Apart from giving money, Mr. Wang didn't do much to impress the stars.

Wanda Pictures is not under his control, and it is impossible for him to give a role to a celebrity just because of a few live broadcasts.

But Wei Yang is different. He has plenty of film and television resources, which can make celebrities obey him. The number of people and strength he can mobilize are definitely not the same as Wang Dashao's.

In addition, Wei Yang has another killer weapon, which is that he can not only allow celebrities to go live, but also allow anchors to enter the entertainment industry.

Filming, variety shows, music, packaging...

Wei Yang has countless resources to promote people, and any good anchor can be transformed into the entertainment industry.

This will be an incomparable and fatal temptation for countless entertainment anchors. Young Master Wang can be sure that if he can offer this condition, there will be countless anchors willing to join him.

It can be said that Wei Yang is actually more suitable for operating the live broadcast platform than Wang Dashao.

But he knew the future, so he cut off the source of the problem directly and invested in B Station Toutiao, which has ensured that he can get the best piece of the cake, and subsequent cooperation can also be connected with the two companies.

Therefore, no matter how high the conditions offered by Mr. Wang were, he had little interest. At most, he would start some related cooperation, but it would not be possible for him to provide too much resource support.

Unless, Young Master Wang persuades his father to let Wei Yang invest in Wanda Cinema Line, but Young Master Wang probably doesn't have that ability.

"It's hard to say, maybe Old Wang loves his son."

Recalling the determined look in Young Master Wang's eyes when he left, Wei Yang still chose to give him his blessings.

For him, supporting Panda is not difficult. If he can acquire shares in Wanda Cinema Line, fill the last shortcoming of Blue Whale and enhance its strength in the film industry, he will make a lot of money.

Although the probability is very low, there is always a chance of something happening!

Anyway, whether Young Master Wang succeeds or not, he won't lose money, so why not let him give it a try...
