My 1999

Chapter 641 Animation

It is a pity that there are so many classic copyrights, but they have not been well developed.

Therefore, when Xu Liang established Hongmeng Animation, he thought of it immediately.

"Have you been in contact with the other party?"

Zhao Lang nodded, "We are in contact. Regarding our acquisition, Shang Meiying's attitude is very ambiguous. It has neither explicitly rejected nor agreed."

"It's normal. It is a state-owned enterprise after all. But judging from your information, the financial situation of Shanghai Meiying is very bad."

"Yes, the animated feature film "Lotus Lantern" cost 12 million yuan and had a box office of 25 million yuan. It obviously lost a lot of money. Since then, Shangmei Film has not been able to release any influential animated works." Zhao Lang said.

Xu Liang nodded, "How are you going to acquire Meiying?"

“The restructuring of state-owned enterprises is a major trend across the country, so we plan to discuss this matter directly with the competent authorities in Shanghai.

The second point is that we will retain all Shanmei Film employees after the acquisition, and there will be no layoffs unless the other party violates the rules. "

Xu Liang nodded secretly.

What leaders are most worried about is massive layoffs after state-owned enterprises are acquired.

Every employee is a burden that the government needs to deal with.

“Third, combined with the copyright library of Meiying, we will produce an animated feature film and a short film.

Fourth, fully cooperate with Universal Studios and use the mature copyrights of Shanghai Movies to jointly create "Havoc in Heaven", "Nezha Haohai", "Tales from the Heavenly Book" and "Black Cat Sheriff" tours with Universal Studios Scenic spots. "

"This is a good idea. I will explain this matter to Jacques Kerr." Xu Liang said.

He has always wanted to build Universal Park into a Disney-style theme park suitable for families. Obtaining the classic animation copyrights from American Films will undoubtedly solve the pain point of Universal Studios' lack of local classic animation IP.

Xiang Lili and the others were also very happy.

If CEO Xu Liang comes forward, Universal Studios will definitely not dare to refuse.

"Go all out to acquire Shanghai Meiying. If you encounter any difficulties, please call me directly."

"OK."

The two agreed quickly.

After Zhao Lang leaves.

"Mr. Xiang, please pay attention to something. If Liu Xiaoli of Hongxingwu asks you to cooperate, you will directly take the controlling stake of Hongxingwu."

"Red Star Pier?"

Xiang Lili suddenly asked, "That Liu Tianxian's agency?"

"Um."

Although she didn't know the relationship between the big boss and Liu Tianxian, she quickly agreed.

"Do you need any special care?"

“After we get the controlling stake, we can give suitable roles, but forget about them if they are not suitable.”

"OK."

Once you understand the scale, it will be easier to operate.

"By the way, Mr. Xu. This is the company's shooting plan for four TV series and two movies this year."

He took the document from Xiang Lili's hand.

Four TV series.

"Bright Sword", with an investment of 25 million, is directed by Li Jian and stars Li Youbin and Zhang Guangbei...

"Detective Di Renjie", with an investment of 40 million, is directed by Qian Yanqiu and stars Liang Guanhua and Zhang Zijian...

"First Intimate Contact", investment 30 million, director Liang Shengquan, starring: TBD.

"Autumn Fairy Tale", with an investment of 50 million, is directed by Lin Shufen, and the starring role is to be determined.

One is a main theme, one is a costume drama, and two are idol dramas.

Two movies, "First Intimate Contact", with an investment of 5 million Chinese dollars, the director and the starring role are to be determined.

"House of Flying Daggers" invested 50 million Chinese dollars and obtained 22% of the share; directed by Zhang Yimou, starring: Liu Dehua, Jin Chengwu, etc.

Since Hongmeng decided to develop the pan-entertainment industry, under the leadership of Xu Liang, it has attached great importance to acquiring film and television copyrights and novel copyrights.

"Bright Sword" and "First Close Encounter" were both acquired in 2001.

It has been delayed because Hongmeng Film and Television’s business is not yet mature.

"In addition, we are still in contact with Zhou Xingxing and want to invest in his new movie "Kung Fu". If everything goes well, we will join forces with Universal to take over the control and distribution of this movie.

Because it hasn't been settled yet, it doesn't appear on the list yet.

There is also Cheng Long's new film "New Police Story", which we are currently in contact with. However, the competition for his new film is too great. Local capital in Hong Kong and Hollywood companies are basically interested.

Coupled with the reputation accumulated from the previous work, many people are optimistic about it.

If you want to invest, you need a premium. "

"Forget about "New Police Story", let's fight for the share and main distribution rights of "Kung Fu"." Xu Liang thought about it briefly and said.

He has seen both movies.

But for the former, he now only remembers Handsome Wu's ugly mask, and has almost forgotten the general plot.

But "Kung Fu" is different. He still clearly remembers the entire main plot.

It’s clear which one is better and which one is worse.

Why do I remember good movies so clearly?

Because you will watch it over and over again.

So it becomes a good choice which one to invest in.

"If there are suitable roles, I will recommend actors from Jiahua."

"OK."

"How's the audition for "Super Boy" going?"

Since the end of Super Girl in 2003, Hongmeng Pictures has been intensively preparing for "Super Boy".

Because Hongmeng acquired Universal Entertainment and the film and television entertainment business is rapidly growing around the world, the 2004 "Super Boy" directly became a global audition.

"It went very smoothly. At present, the top three in the domestic competition have been born, and the overseas and Southeast Asian competitions are still in progress.

It will all be over in May.

We will start recording the first episode on May 10th. We will record three episodes first. After the college entrance examination, the first episode will be broadcast on Beijing Satellite TV. "

After hesitating for a moment, he said to Lily.

"Mr. Xu, the current policy of merging the two channels is being implemented, which may have a certain impact on the separation of production and broadcasting."

"Elaborate."

“Domestic TV stations are divided into wired and wireless TV stations. There are many TV stations across the country, and many provincial TV stations do not have the ability to independently produce programs.

Therefore, it had to be outsourced.

Many TV program companies in the industry, such as Enlight Media, provide programs to TV stations for free, and then make money through pre-roll ads, interstitial ads and advertising placement.

Their classic program "China Entertainment Report" has been broadcast on 158 TV channels, covering all regions in the country and 600 million viewers. It has become the most famous entertainment program in China and ranks in the middle of the ratings for the same period in most regions. Ranked first, it is known as the "News Network" in the entertainment industry.

However, with the implementation of the merger strategy of the two channels, the strength of local TV stations has greatly increased. With the control of channels, they have begun to compete for the revenue space of excellent programs.

Once the producers disagree, the program will be adjusted to garbage time.

Our "Super Singer" project is one of the most popular entertainment programs in the country, and I am afraid it will also be affected by the policy. "

"Don't worry. If Beijing Satellite TV doesn't work, just move it to Qilu or Jiangsu Province. I have invested so much in two provinces, so I still have some face."

Even so, he was most confident about the capital.

The father-in-law is here to control things. Although tax matters involve laws and do not get involved, business operations are a matter of just one sentence.

"I see."

Xiang Lily breathed a sigh of relief.

With the top group behind her, she wasn't too worried at first.

"How many people have PolyGram signed now?"

"Currently there are six, namely Principal Tan, Zhang Xueyou, Chen Kelly, Lu Guanting, Cai Qin and Daolang. We are currently in contact with three, namely Chen Yixin, Sun Yanzi and Liu Huan."

"Why didn't you dig Jay Chou?"

"His contract with the agency still has three years left..."

"Then buy his agency."

The person with the highest economic value in China in the future will be this guy who keeps saying "Oh, not bad".

Since PolyGram mainly signs contracts with top brands, Jay Chou is indispensable.

"I will send someone to contact you as soon as possible."

Xu Liang nodded.

"This time on "Super Boy", all the top ten singers have signed their management contracts with "Forest Records". If there are some who don't sign, there is no need to press. The quality of the program comes first."

"clear."

Hongmeng Music business is divided into two parts, in addition to the online website and offline economic business.

The newly established ‘Forest Records’ has gained in volume, while ‘PolyGram’ has gained in quality.

Cooperate with each other, high and low.

After the two chatted for a while, Xu Liang stood up.

"You get busy, I'm leaving first. Take the time to get Shang Meiying down."

Watching the big boss leave, he opened his mouth to Lily, but he didn't say anything.

In fact, she and Hongmeng Film and Television both wanted to adapt "Zhu Xian", but the big boss gave it to Jiahua.

It is estimated that it is impossible to come back.

After leaving Hongmeng Entertainment, I went directly to the Zhongding Building on the North Third Ring Road.

Compared with two months ago, Jiahua's once-empty workstations are now half full.

The receptionist saw him and stood up quickly.

"Hello, Mr. Xu."

Xu Liang smiled and nodded, without saying much, he led Lu Hui directly inside.

"Wow, Mr. Xu is so domineering."

"The third richest man in the world, with a net worth of US$38.9 billion, how can he not be domineering?"

"I wish I could have a boyfriend like this."

“There is everything in dreams.”…

As expected, Xu Liang's arrival caused a sensation throughout Jiahua.

Although everyone knew that the company had shares in Hongmeng, they never expected that the famous Hongmeng boss, the super rich Xu Tanhua, would come.

Soon, the old staff vividly told the story of Xu Liang's first visit.

Before he even reached the office, Fan Xiaopang came out with a happy face after receiving the news.

"You came?"

"Um."

She was wearing a pink women's suit, a ponytail, simple light makeup, and black high heels, exuding a capable temperament all over her body.

After entering the office and sitting down, Xu Liang patted his thigh.

Fan Xiaopang sat in his arms obediently.

"Okay, now she's becoming more and more like a strong woman."

"Isn't everything I have given to you by you?"

After saying that, he kissed her directly.

Be bold and direct.

Lu Hui saw this and turned around and walked out.

Huo Gang followed closely behind.

They are all used to it.

After the office became quiet, Fatty Fan clicked his tongue and released his mouth.

Her big, watery eyes looked at the man in front of her charmingly.

"Would you like to be here? It's so exciting."
