Chapter 1096 Self-Regulation (24)
The copyright of "Under the Stranger" belongs to Tengxun. No, it should be said that Tengxun Animation...
Tengxun Animation and Tengxun Video may be considered different entities. Therefore, the drama version of "Under the Stranger" is exclusively broadcast on Youku, and "Fox Fairy Matchmaker" is also broadcast on iQiyi!
Well, actually it’s because internal people are not optimistic about it, including "The Son-in-Law"...
When "The Son-in-law" was aired, Tengxun Video was mainly promoting "Douluo Dalu". "The Son-in-law" would definitely not get good resources on Tengxun Video. The producer wanted to promote it, and then iQi The price for art is very high...
So, it was sold to iQiyi!
Including "Under the Stranger" as well...
Oh, in fact, Tengxun Pictures also tried its hand at movies, producing "Grand Trail", "Youth"...
Not as good as Ahri, who at least invested heavily in "The Ferryman", "Blood of the Machine", "The Ancient Sword and Legend of the Moon"...
Of course, the lower the investment, the smaller the loss...
In fact, after establishing the film company, BAT successively carried out a series of capital operations.
With its strong financial resources, Ali Pictures has spent tens of billions of yuan in film and television investment and acquisitions, including increasing its holdings in Huayi Brothers and investing in Enlight Media;
Acquired theater ticketing management software company Guangdong Software;
Participated in the privatization transaction of Bona Pictures, invested in Dadi Cinema, invested in Hehe Pictures, launched Ali Pictures' "Plan A" and other operations.
In terms of overseas layout, Ali Pictures, while participating in the investment in imported blockbusters such as "Mission: Impossible 5", has also reached a strategic cooperation agreement with Amblin Partners, a company founded by Hollywood director Spielberg, to extend the film industry chain to IP incubation, Film and television production, distribution and marketing, theaters, derivatives and other aspects.
Tengxun Pictures focuses on content and builds an interactive industry chain based on its own IP resources.
In addition, Tengxun Pictures has also reached strategic cooperation with companies such as Wanda Film and Television and filmmakers such as David Goyer and Niu Chengze, and has extended its entertainment tentacles overseas.
"Kong: Skull Island" is cooperating with Legendary Pictures. At the end of 2016, it was reported that Tengxun Pictures planned to spend at least 2 billion yuan to invest in Hollywood and Chinese movies within two years until the end of 2017.
Really invested in - "Venom," "Wonder Woman."
What I remember is that there were many soft articles praising Tengxun for his vision, such as ""Venom" is not poisonous, Tengxun Pictures has found the right way to open up Hollywood! ’, ‘‘Water is good for all things without fighting for it’-Tengxun Pictures has found the right position! ’
Then "Terminator: Dark Fate" was released, and the blood loss...
Then... very few pornographic articles are published...
In fact, Tengxun later invested in "A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood" and "Monster Hunter"...
Oh, and Baidu…
Baidu…
Robin Li seems to have given up on entertainment.
In fact, in the field of pan-entertainment, Baidu once looked very beautiful and held a good hand.
From music (Qianqianjingting), literature (Zongheng Chinese website), video, and even the promotion and distribution of film and television content, Baidu was once considered a heavyweight player in the pan-entertainment field.
But today, Baidu is no longer the main player in music, literature and other fields...
Baidu no longer bets on entertainment, mainly because Baidu's mobile Internet transformation failed.
This makes it impossible to advance into a traffic-based company. It is better to monetize existing traffic while directly looking for the next stage - how to become an infrastructure company in the artificial intelligence era, and bet all on artificial intelligence!
…
Shen Xudong just asked briefly - PPTV has also opened an animation channel, but it mainly buys copyrights...
Its subsidiary Caitiaoya also produces animation, but it mainly focuses on animation movies...
He had no choice but to acquire the comic rights for more than fifty works including "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortality", "Soul of Souls", "The Patriarch of the Demonic Way"...
There are specialties in the art industry. PPTV’s main strength is drama production, and it is impossible to be good at everything.
Netflix is so awesome, but it hasn’t produced a few animations that are out of the industry - "Love Dead", "Horseboy", and other out-of-the-art animations all rely on Japanese benzene...
Although the subsequent topic had nothing to do with Wuershan, he still did not leave...
Shen Xudong didn't care, since what he was talking about was not private anyway.
The main thing is to discuss the bottleneck period...
"…bottleneck?"
"Can you detect it?"
"Hmm...I feel like I have no interest in any type of movies now!"
"...Is that too tiring?"
"I'm not tired either..."
"I know," Ning Hao smiled: "After I finished filming "BJ Good Guy", I temporarily lost interest in making movies...so, I became a producer!"
"...That's not the case. Look, I feel like I have no goals right now... It stands to reason that I should lie down flat, but I always feel that there are many things I can't stand, so..."
Han Yan thought about it...
Indeed, Shen Xudong is worth over 10 billion...
Too much money!
As for the goal, "The Great Wall" hasn't even been released yet, and it has already exceeded US$500 million worldwide...
Women...he doesn't lack either.
His whole life can be said to be perfect, but he has been on full fire recently, trying all kinds of output in "The Ferryman", not even giving him the dignity of being a human being...
"Do you want to see a psychiatrist?"
Shen Xudong shook his head: "I don't believe that stuff!"
Han Yan interjected: "I have read a book called "Avoiding Mental Consumption", which says, 'Life seems to be boring and boring repetition for you...'..."
"No, but I just don't want to think about new movies...I didn't do that before."
"If you don't think about it, just don't think about it. What impact will it have? What is there to be anxious about?"
"...I always feel guilty if I don't make movies..."
"Guilty? What are you guilty of?"
"Abandoned by the audience, abandoned by the times..." Shen Xudong scratched his head: "The times are changing so fast now. It can be said that it is changing rapidly. Can you imagine that we are now at war with the United States?"
"...You think too much about movies..."
Shen Xudong didn't wait for Han Yan to finish, and spoke to himself: "What I'm thinking about is whether I put too much emphasis on the so-called industrial attributes, such as special effects, sound, visual presentation and other 'popcorn' elements... After all, what are the elements in a movie?" Part of it being able to remain in the long history does not seem to have much to do with special effects..."
"Why do you think so?"
"This idea came to me when I was watching old movies..."
Ning Hao glanced at Han Yan, and then said: "...I suggest you take half a year off, or try something else..."
"Half a year off?"
"Um…"
Shen Xudong thought for a while and shook his head: "I won't take a vacation...try new things, let's be specific!"
"Animated film or TV series production..."
“I’m a TV drama major!”
"But you haven't done any drama in almost ten years."
"Making a play..." Shen Xudong thought about it seriously, and then suddenly his eyes lit up: "I really have a few good scripts..."
"What script?"
“The Long Night, Bad Boys, and The Long Season…”
