At first, I just wanted to make money

PPTV is going to launch a paid trial!
Thanks to Netflix, a "House of Cards" set off a new path to the payment model, and then "Hemlock Grove", "Orange Is the New Black"... continue to maintain a super high original effect.

This is a revelation to domestic streaming media platforms - the United States can produce self-produced dramas for a fee, why can't we?

PPTV tried it once a few years ago, but... the payment conditions were not mature at that time. First, there were too many pirated copies, and second,... payment was too complicated.

Unlike now, you can pay by scanning a code...

After all, Shen Xudong plans to use the online version of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", criminal investigation dramas, horror and youth dramas to open up the paid market.

That definitely needs actors!
And it's cheap actors.

Yin Xiaotian, Lei Jiayin, Guo Jingfei, and Pan Yueming are all selected representatives.

The company's Sha Yi, Ni Hongjie, Jiang Chao, Yu Entai, including the actors of "Soldier Assault", Xing Jiadong and Duan Yihong are also being selected!
In addition, Qiao Shan and Xiu Rui were also pulled over, and they were working on "Diao Si Man"...

PPTV has always produced self-produced dramas, but most of the profit methods rely on the cooperation of provincial satellite TV broadcasts. It is difficult to guarantee profits only by advertising revenue and distribution rights!

But it is also much better than Youku. Last year, Youku released 11 self-produced dramas, 10 of which were ruined and failed to catch on. The only remaining "11 Degrees of Youth" also lost a lot of money...

PPTV cooperates with many TVB actors, and the distribution of drama series is relatively good.

But this is not a long-term solution. We still have to create purely homemade dramas - only broadcast on the PPTV platform!

"Forensic Qin Ming", "Psychological Crime", "Dark Man", and the horror genre is "Soul Ferry", "Wuxin Mage" and "Central Building"...

Youth dramas are much simpler, such as "The Year in a Hurry", "The Best of Us", "To Our Simple Little Beauty"...

We will start with "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp", and then we will release one movie every month...

Shen Xudong’s goal: In three years, that is, before 2015, the number of paying people for PPTV will reach more than 5000 million!
……

Cannes, France, May 5, local time, closing ceremony.

American director Alexander Payne, one of the judges, was presenting the award and presented the Best Actor Award: "There are always some great performances that make us unforgettable. In the past half a month, I have had the honor to meet a group of the best actors in the world."Before we voted, we thought it would be very difficult to choose this award, but when the results came out, we felt that it was a matter of course...'

"The best actor is "Hunting", Chen Daoming, congratulations!"

Then, the whole internal entertainment was boiling!

The four major portals quickly put the news on the headlines, but there was nothing real, just a few pictures and brief comments on the scene.

Weibo immediately put "Chen Daoming Cannes Best Actor" on the hot search headlines...

The people who stayed in the company to work overtime immediately put on the previously prepared templates, and a bunch of marketing drafts were directly uploaded to the Internet...

Oh, it's certain that "Hunting" will win the award - I have received an invitation letter for the closing ceremony. Generally speaking, only those who are sure to win the award will be invited to attend the closing ceremony!
According to speculation, the Palme d'Or is unlikely. Matteo Garroni's "Reality Show" is highly anticipated, and "The Hunt" will either receive the Jury Prize, the Screenplay Award, or the Actor Award...

All ready!

Then, Chen Daoming won the best actor award again.

Become another Best Actor Award after the Venice Best Actor Award!

Chinese film No.1!
No, Zhang Manyu won the best actress in Berlin before, and then won the best actress in Cannes...

Then the first actor.

Shen Xudong also posted on Weibo: Congratulations to Mr. Chen, "Hunting" won the award again... Also, Uncle Ge, we have to work hard. "Big Buddha" directed by Yi Mou has been confirmed to be in the main competition unit of Venice. You have to work hard!

"Big Buddha" stars Uncle Ge, Zhao Benshan and Director Chen, with Director Chen playing the boss Huang Qiwen.

The focus is still "Hunting", or Chen Daoming.

Do your own calculations, Gong Li’s Venice in 92; Ge You’s Cannes in 94; Xia Yu’s Venice in 94; Liang Chaowei’s Cannes in 2000; Chen Daoming’s Venice in 2005; last year, Venice, "Sister Tao" Ip Dexian, and Xiao Fangfang from "Woman [-]" - Xiao Fangfang is Fang Shiyu's eldest brother Fang Dayu...

Plus Zhang Manyu, Berlin in 92 and Cannes in 04, this is a double crown.

Daoming Chen won another Cannes Best Actor this year!
Together, there are 8 people, 9 empress trophies, and now there are ten.

Chen Daoming is still a double champion, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it will be recorded in history.

In addition, Chen Daoming himself is very famous, and his business ability, character, and temperament are all unique!

The key point is that the media's publicity cooperation is very good, and all mentions of him are full of praise. Mr. Ji Xianlin even commented on Chen Daoming, saying that "Chen Daoming's Chinese studies foundation is not inferior to any Chinese studies professor at Tsinghua and Peking University"...

The media resources occupied and the media resources that can be mobilized far exceed those of Wang Jingchun and Liao Fan...

Just swiped the screen...

In addition, "Hunting" is scheduled to be released on June 6th, which also serves to promote the movie!
……

"Reunion" is indeed very strong. After its release, it has been the single-day box office champion, breaking 20 million in [-] days!

Temporarily ranked third in the year, next to "Titanic 3D" and "Mission: Impossible 4", the box office of the latter two is 9.4 million and 6.72 million.

Domestic movies are... quite embarrassing.

"Why Shengxiao is Silent" has a box office of 3.67 million, "When a Man Falls in Love" has a box office of 3.02 million, "Search" has a box office of 2.07 million...

It's not an echelon at all-there's 2 million from Journey to the Center of the Earth 4.01 in the middle...

For the time being, Hollywood blockbusters do have a crushing effect on domestic films!
Not only in 2012, but also in 2017. In May 8st of that year, four good domestic films were released, "Master of Memory", "Like You", "Bomb Disposal Expert", "Chunjiao Rescue Zhiming", and then "Speed ​​and Speed" The tail of Passion [-] was swept away...

The latter will be released on April 4, and the tail is too strong to be stopped!

So, when the news from Cannes came, the whole circle was excited...

Cannes Best Actor!
Chinese films once again gained popularity overseas.

However, to be honest, even with such publicity, Shen Xudong is still not optimistic about the box office of "Hunting"...

The reason is simple, this is not a movie for the market!
But it didn't hinder Shen Xudong's expenditure on film promotion: "Hunting" Cannes copyright sold for 1480 million US dollars, and the copyright income alone was enough to recover the cost. As for the publicity investment, there was a lot of resource replacement-Chen Daoming has a bunch of high-end endorsements!
In addition, "Hunting" won the best actor in Cannes, and the stock price of Tianmei Media rose along with the trend - the total market value is 650 billion...

Oh, because of the strength of Hollywood, Tianmei Media’s stock price has been falling...

Of course, the focus of the promotion has become 'Shen Xudong + Chen Daoming'...

By the way, I mentioned "Outstanding Citizen", which was born from "No. [-] in the World", and then extended to "Fame", "Hunting"...

A bunch of marketing drafts all started with: "Xudong once said that he is most grateful to Zhang Jizhong, Chen Hao and Chen Daoming..."...
