Rebirth: I Want to Surf

Since "Hero" started the trend of holding premieres in the Great Hall, blockbusters from all walks of life have flocked to it, and they all have to hold a grand premiere.

But I was always tired of being in the Great Hall, and then I changed the venue in a different way. Last year "Assembly" was in Gongti, and this year "King of Kung Fu" went to Chaoyang Park.

Yao Yuan and Yin Yin didn't live in Palm Springs, they lived in Haidian, otherwise they would have to peep with a telescope - it's not interesting for them to attend, but peeping is interesting.

Huayi Brothers specially transported a spherical tent from Dubai with a huge space to serve as today's venue. Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Liu Yifei, Li Bingbing and others all made an appearance, and Huang Xiaoming and other artists under his banner also came to join in the show.

"The King of Kung Fu" is a Chinese-American co-production film, the screenwriter and director are all American. It essentially tells the story of a white man who is destined to save the world with the help of many yellow-skinned supporting actors. By the way, he fell in love with "The Great Wall" It makes no difference.

It is full of Western stereotypes of ancient China. For example, you can’t see such things as "towns". They are always surrounded by wooden fences, and a few thatched houses are scattered here and there. Those who don’t know it think it’s the medieval West. lord.

If there is a male city, don't ask, it must be the residence of the villain BOSS, which means that it is time to fight to the end.

The standard is not a bad movie, it can only be said to be mediocre, you can watch it.

With the help of Hollywood's distribution channels, the film was able to be released around the world, and the final domestic box office was 171 million, and the global box office was 128 million US dollars, which was also mediocre.

But "The King of Kung Fu" still has a small place in the history of Chinese film, because Jackie Chan and Jet Li, the two kung fu superstars, achieved a duel for the first time, which is the only value of this film!

"Okay, let us thank Miss Liu Yifei, please take a break first!"

Inside the spherical tent, Liu Yifei finished interacting on stage and stepped off the stage with her skirt in hand.

She wore a tube top silver skirt today, showing her shoulders and half of her chest. She sat down next to her mother and watched Li Bingbing talking and laughing happily. She didn't feel any joy about the release of a new movie.

"Just now your godfather made a phone call and negotiated with the brokerage company in the United States, and the contract can be signed next month."

Liu Xiaoli turned her head and whispered a message.

"Really? Then when can I film?"

"I didn't talk about that, but since you signed the contract, you must have resources, and that company is also very well connected in Hollywood." Liu Xiaoli was full of confidence.

"The King of Kung Fu" is a big piece of cake, and Huayi offered it with both hands, just to sign Liu Yifei. But Liu Xiaoli and that godfather didn't like Huayi and wanted to cross the river and tear down the bridge.

This kind of thing is a big taboo in the circle, they have two steps, one is to ask Yu Jiajia for help to solve the problems in the mainland; at the same time contact the American agency to pave the way for entering Hollywood.

In this way, you can attack when you advance, you can defend when you retreat, and you are in an invincible position.

I can only say: What beautiful things do you want? !

In reality, Liu Yifei’s team made such an operation. The mainland business was suspended for two years, and the American company he signed was useless. Finally, he surrendered to the Hong Kong circle, and then regained good resources. "A Chinese Ghost Story" and "Four Famous Catch" such as.

"We'll go see Mr. Yu again in a few days. If she agrees again, the matter will be settled."

"But I don't think Mr. Yu is very interested."

"It's no problem. You have an agreement with 99 Entertainment for one drama and one movie. It's impossible for Mr. Yu to die for his own project."

"oh……"

Liu Yifei didn't think it would be so simple, but she also lacked the brains in this area and couldn't think of any ideas.

…………

After the premiere of "The King of Kung Fu", it was released soon.

The box office is good, the reputation is mediocre, and the audience doesn't care, as long as Jackie Chan and Jet Li can be seen fighting, the film will complete its mission.

Film and television practitioners are rejoicing. From the beginning of the year to the present, "Yangtze River No. 7" has 200 million, "Manslaughter" 170 million, "Ip Man" 120 million, and Jay Chou's "Slam Dunk" 110 million. 100 million, and firmly occupy the top four rankings.

Looking at the momentum of "The King of Kung Fu", the fifth work breaking 100 million will be born soon.

The main creator has also started a promotional itinerary in various places. The Maiwo community used to be a stop, but now the community does not do it, and actively donates resources to Maili Video.

The website cannot make its own programs, so Yu Jiajia bought Tangerine Culture and simply used the Internet celebrities of Orange Culture to do it.

Like station B in later generations, there is a program called "Interview with Bilibili Stars", and every new film will be released to make an appearance. Wu Jing once referred to "Bilibili" as "Xiabuxiabu".

...

Unity Lake Building.

In the previous chat era, the company had a room used for "star interviews". It is still a star interview room, but it has become a video studio.

Today's guests are Liu Yifei and Li Bingbing, two female generals.

After recording an episode of the show, at the end, the two said congratulations without any surprise: "Congratulations to the launch of Maili Video's classic film and television theater, remember to watch my "A World Without Thieves"!"

""The Legend of Condor Heroes" will be launched next month. Maili Video is an exclusive and genuine version. I hope everyone will support it!"

"Okay, it's done!"

"Thank you two!"

"Thank you, thank you, I hope to have the opportunity to come again, I really like the atmosphere here..."

Li Bingbing is very good at talking.

At this time in 2008, it was the stage when Shuangice was making efforts to the front line, and successfully hung behind Sidan. Li Bingbing is the female supporting role in "The King of Kung Fu", but she is better than Liu Yifei who is the heroine, and has received a lot of praise.

After recording the show, she was about to leave. Liu Xiaoli said, "We still have to discuss about "Zhu Xian", so we won't be together."

"Oh, then I'll take a step first."

Li Bingbing turned around and rolled her eyes at the same time, she didn't understand that Liu Tianxian was in his 20s, why would he take a mother with him...

Not long after, Liu Xiaoli and her daughter knocked on Yu Jiajia's door again.

Yu Jiajia looked down on this woman very much. Seeing her cliché, she said impatiently: "The exchange of benefits is the basic rule in the circle. If you take the benefits but don't abide by the agreement, you have committed a big taboo."

"I know, I understand, but I really can't send Sissy to Huayi. I'm here to beg you. I hope you can help me."

"Why should I offend Huayi for you?"

"You helped us a lot, so we will remember your kindness. Besides, "Zhu Xian" is about to be filmed, and it's not good if it makes a mess. We all hope it will go smoothly."

? ? ?

Yu Jiajia has a black question mark on his head, are you threatening me?

Seeing the other party's face as a matter of course, as if she really didn't know what was wrong with what she said, she simply leaned back tactically and leaned on the large boss chair.

"Grace? What kind of favor?"

"How do I know you won't cross the river and tear down the bridge? This happens once and twice."

""Zhu Xian" is about to be filmed, whether it will be affected or not is my business, I have no obligation to deal with your off-site messes, but you must show up for me, fulfill the contract and complete it properly!"

"The door is over there, go by yourself!"

Liu Xiaoli's face turned red and white, and she dragged her daughter away angrily.

After they left, Yu Jiajia was puzzled in the room for a while, unable to understand Liu Xiaoli's brain circuit, and couldn't help calling Yao Yuan to complain.

"Hahaha!"

"Are you kidding me?"

"I laughed at Zhou Yu's ignorant Zhuge Shaozhi, can you control it?"

After listening to Zhile, Yao Yuan asked, "Then what did you think about, can you help me?"

"It didn't matter at first, but I can help or not, but now I am disgusted and have no interest."

"..."

Yao Yuan thought for a while, and said: "Objectively speaking, Liu Yifei has good looks, can make fight scenes, and can speak English well, which is in line with our overseas strategy. But since you are upset, then communicate with Huayi. When filming "Zhu Xian" Be quiet and don't care about it later."

"What do you think Huayi will do?"

"They can be careful, Liu Yifei will stop for at least 2 years."

"Okay, then I'll take advantage of the fire to rob again."

Yao Yuan asked again: "How about Tudou?"

"We are going to raise the data of "Manslaughter" and "Ip Man" and start directly from investors..."

Yu Jiajia briefly explained the plan, and Yao Yuan said: "Yes, the speed can be faster."

"no problem!"

Yu Jiajia was actually a little strange, Yao Yuan seemed to be too eager, as if something important happened next and had to be done before it happened.

Of course, there is a big event. After April, it will be May.

…………

Soon, "Manslaughter" and "Ip Man" were launched.

The two films were released in theaters in January, and they were released after more than a month. Not long after that, they are extremely fresh.

In fact, many people like to watch movies, but they don't pay to go to the cinema for various reasons, but if they can go whoring for free, they will flock to it.

The two movies were played online, exclusive and free, and the popularity has picked up again, and the website has also started to operate.

The data of video websites are all known to be fake, and the number of views of a drama can easily reach tens of billions, and you are treating people as fools when you say it. After being named, he restrained himself a little, and changed his routine again.

For example, before a drama is broadcast, an album is usually created, which contains trailers, tidbits, etc., and the playback volume generated by them will be included in the episode itself. Some dramas exceed 100 million before they are broadcast, and this is how the data comes from.

After the broadcast, there will be a lot of previews for the next episode.

Friends who like to watch dramas have experience. After each episode ends, there are so many previews of the next episode that it is outrageous, and these playbacks will also be included.

Then there is autoplay.

For example, when you open this page, you don't want to watch the drama, but it plays automatically. Or you don’t want to watch this episode, but it automatically jumps to the next episode, this kind of data is also counted.

In short, there are many ways.

Mai Li's main promotion is "Manslaughter", which has a stronger lineup, higher quality, and more novelty.

The website has added a lot of behind-the-scenes stories and interviews, and the number of hits is good. In addition, there are daily tasks, such as: how many M coins can you get after watching "Manslaughter" for five minutes, or share a link, and get M coins according to the number of clicks... …

The users are elated, whoring movies for free, and there are rewards, great news!

"Commander Yao really did what he said. At the New Year's Eve party, he said that he would vigorously promote the video this year, and it really did!"

"Newcomers, let me ask you, has Maiwo's benefits always been this good?"

"I rubbed my eyes, it turned out to be an interrogative sentence!"

"You may be new to the Internet. Anyone with some experience knows that Commander Yao has nothing to say to netizens!"

"You guys are so naive. The purpose of giving benefits is to attract users. Do you really think it's good for netizens? It's all just pretending!"

"What's wrong with pretending? There are so many Internet bosses, even if he pretends, he is the only one pretending. Suddenly it reminds me of Liu Bei. Many people say he is hypocritical, but I want to say that Liu Bei has pretended to be righteous all his life, then he is the real one." Benevolence!"

"Oh, those people were fooled by "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Emperor Han Zhaolie is playing with you?!"

Unsurprisingly, it started crooked.

In the video age, there are always people who think that male netizens are staring at women who rub shoulders all day long. In fact, they are more interested in politics, history, culture, games, donkey hoof repairing and barnacle picking...

"Mai Li video announced that the server has been upgraded again, pain and happiness!"

""Manslaughter" has been played over a million times!"

"Five million goals achieved!"

""Manslaughter" is full of surprises online, and it will lead to a movie-watching craze again!"

"Must do it!"

""Manslaughter" breaks 20 million, and it's the best!"

Movies are not TV series, and the number of views is not as good as it is. "Let the Bullets Fly", which has the most views on station B, has only 130 million views. In 2008, tens of millions were enough to beat everything.

follow closely:

"Mai Li Video announced that it has completed the first round of financing, and will receive a total investment of 15 million US dollars from IDG and Capital Today!"

"In just one month, Maili's valuation jumped to the top of the industry!"

"Yu Jiajia said that he plans to complete 2-3 rounds of financing within this year, and has negotiated with a number of investment institutions."

…………

"Snapped!"

"Crack!"

At the headquarters of Tudou.com, Wang Wei dropped another cup and cursed in Fujian dialect angrily.

Now I don’t even pretend to be pretending. IDG and Capital Today Chiguoguo support Maili, and among those rumors that are true or false, the institution that intends to invest in Maili happens to include the institution he talked about before.

Everything is clear.

The grain of wheat just wants to receive the potato.

Insufficient cash, unable to find investment, loss of users, plummeting valuation, shareholder rebellion... Is this motherfucker still a potato? This is lotus root! riddled with holes.

Wang Wei sat slumped on the chair, angry and tired, feeling powerless.

The phone rang just right.

When he answered, Yu Jiajia's hateful voice came from inside, and cut to the point: "I want the shares in your hand, let's make a price!"

"..."

Wang Wei deliberately refused, or made a few mocking remarks, but felt bored. In extreme cases, his thoughts changed almost instantly. If he couldn't do it, he would sell it. Anyway, he tried his best.

I am still young, with money I can start a new life and do what I really like to do.

Like writing a script or something.

"30 million dollars!"

He announced a number hoarsely.

There was a sneer on the phone, and he said, "Am I not mistaken? You thought that Tudou was Tudou a few months ago. Now how much its valuation has dropped, don't you know? Your shares are not worth this price."

"I don't have to sell it."

"Don't sell the business, you can deal with those shareholders, or you can save the rest of your life to pay off the debt!"

"..."

Wang Wei listened to the other party's unceremonious words, paused for a while, and finally turned into a sigh.

…………

In the end, Wang Wei left.

Since Yao Yuan was reborn, this is considered a relatively large movement of a butterfly's wings.

Tudou.com will no longer be merged with Youku.com and will disappear in the history of the Internet. Wang Wei may not be talked about again because of the divorce lawsuit.

99 Entertainment became the largest shareholder of Tudou at the price of cabbage, which was unfair to other shareholders, so the first thing to do was to inject capital into it and acquire some shares of other shareholders, reducing their capital risk a bit.

These are the conditions negotiated before.

And Yao Yuan got a complete and complete video platform. Liu Weiwei and Wen Sha rushed to Shanghai with a burst of blood, and planned to complete the transformation within this year.

In the early days, it was a live show.

The anchors are good-looking, cool and decently dressed, singing, dancing, and chatting in everything. The content is mainly to show their talents, and they have high requirements for their own quality.

The training alone takes a while.

Websites such as Youku and 56 don't know Yao Yuan's plan. Seeing that Wang Wei has been driven away, they all tremble, fearing that they will be the next target.

Yao Yuan appeased in time: "That's it!"

Maili Video's hurricane rush will be closed, and it will not maliciously attack its peers. Only then did Gu Yongqiang and the others heave a sigh of relief, but the shadow brought by the other party was too great, so they joined forces in private, and tacitly formed an alliance early.

In short, in 2008, before the financial crisis broke out completely, it was also the eve of the cold winter period of domestic video websites, and history changed.

The current pattern is probably: wheat grain video and so on...
