Chapter 387 is already steady
What is life like on a day-to-day basis as the owner of a fairly large company?
Others Li Qian doesn't know, but his work perfectly meets the expectations of the majority of college students for future professional life.
Idle, no overtime, 9 to 5 in the morning, go to work to fish.
Well, that's about the state.
On the second day after returning to the capital, Li Qian continued to fish in the company.
A simple film and television production and distribution company actually doesn't have much to do, especially as the boss, Li Qian really has nothing to do.
However, the executives of various departments still came to Li Qian's office one after another to report the situation, even if some seemed to have said it yesterday, and some were not at all.
It seems that they are quite idle, and they take time to hang out in front of themselves every day.
There's basically nothing to keep busy, the only thing is Grava's Series C funding round.
Although Liu Yong's development strategy is problematic, Grava is still the largest box office platform, with a market share of more than 50%.
The 30 million B round of financing during the Spring Festival last year, Zhang Yong burned it for a year and a half, and finally burned it out, and in order to cope with the summer file and the upcoming Chinese New Year file, he opened the C round of financing.
Needless to say, this year's Chinese New Year stalls, Ma Xiaogang, and Li Qian, maybe Cheng Long will also join, and there is also a large number of big productions, which is not only important for major companies, but also for ticketing platforms.
The amount of Series C financing is also as high as 150 million, which is still led by CDH Investments, which led the B round, and Li Qian followed with 10 million.
Prior to this, Li Qian had already accounted for nearly 20% of the shares, and Grava is now not short of investment, of course, he will not be allowed to invest more, and Li Qian may not have any share in the next round.
After this round of dilution, Li Qian's stake is only 17.7%, and Grava's valuation has reached 1 billion.
It's only been more than three years, and the valuation of a website that is about to go out of business has soared to 1 billion, and the Internet era is so crazy.
When he saw Liu Yong again this time, he was also much more confident and public, not the same as when he begged Li Qian to invest in a low voice.
After the teams of the two sides confirmed that there was no problem with the contract and signed each other, Liu Yong stretched out his hand to Li Qian with a smile, "Thank you Director Li for your support to us Grava all the time." ”
"Mr. Liu is polite, will we have a meal later?" Li Qian also smiled.
"I'm sorry, I still have to rush back to the magic capital to deal with something, next time. Liu Yong smiled and left with the team.
Waiting for them to leave, Li Qian sighed, "People, it's changed too fast. ”
I also wanted Li Qian to take people to the magic capital, and I made Li Qian so angry that he changed his face faster than turning a book.
If he is really so awesome, Li Qian will no longer wait for a year to cut a wave of leeks, give Ren Zhonglu a call, and directly pull out Grava's business in the base camp of the magic capital.
Zhong Lifang said with a smile, "Power makes people swell, and if you change someone else, you have become a company with a valuation of one billion yuan in three years, and it is not strange to be chased by so many venture capitals." ”
Li Qian shook his head, "Forget it, when Grava burns this money, after the summer, New Year, and Spring Festival, it is very likely that the valuation will soar to two billion, and I will harvest it then." ”
This year's several popular schedules are definitely a few box office explosions, not to mention the nearly ten big productions in the Chinese New Year file, the 1.6 billion box office of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" last year alone has greatly stimulated the film market.
The development of the market will promote the expansion of the box office ceiling, and at the same time, the development of the film industry will be accelerated by popular movies.
Last year, the average ticket price of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" was 33 yuan, and the number of moviegoers exceeded 50 million, what kind of concept is this!
On average, nearly 4 out of 100 people watched the movie.
Even if many people have watched it more than once, and there are a lot of second and third brushes, according to statistics, the audience of "The God of Medicine" has greatly increased the proportion of moviegoers over the age of 30, and even the audience over the age of 40 is quite large.
It means that many audiences who did not watch movies before have also been attracted to the cinema.
In the summer, Chinese New Year, and Spring Festival, it should be no problem for Grava's valuation to break 2 billion, and Internet companies are like this, especially when the head enterprises are developing smoothly, it is not surprising that they are like heifers riding rockets, swishing upward, doubling in a year, or even several times.
"Then our ticketing platform will be officially launched after the year?" Zhong Lifang said with some worry, "Now Meituan Movie has become independent from Meituan, Meituan has just won the station of a thousand groups, there is the strongest push team in China, and it will definitely be the biggest opponent of the ticketing platform in the future, QQ has also launched QQ movie tickets, there is the largest user base there, we have no advantage, is it safer to go online before the Lunar New Year, if these two seize the market, we don't have much competitiveness." ”
Indeed, Meituan won the battle from the group buying website, and the local push team topped any industry regardless of the number or ability.
Needless to say, QQ movie tickets, in terms of following the trend, Penguin has almost never lost, so many users are there.
However, Li Qian is not worried, "This 100 million should not be in vain, and the prospect of the ticketing platform depends on the development of the mobile Internet, it is not too early to come, it makes no difference if we wait for another half a year, and we still have a trump card in our hands, which is enough to attract a large number of users in the early stage." ”
"What trump card?" Zhong Li Fangqi was surprised, she began to prepare for the ticketing platform half a year ago, and she also knew about this aspect.
"We have a monopoly on the source of films, and the movies I make can only buy tickets on our platform, and there are no tickets to sell on other platforms, is this considered a trump card?" Li Qian said with a smile. Nine cakes in Chinese
.......
After a two-day break, on the 27th, "Painted Skin 2" held a large-scale world premiere celebration in China, officially igniting the summer war.
The box office of the zero-point field is as high as 6 million, creating a box office record for the zero-point field in film history.
On the afternoon of the 28th, Li Qian and Tong Liya also secretly went to UME Huaxing Cinemas, which had joined the future cinema chain, to watch the movie.
Two hours later, Li Qian rubbed his eyes and came to the general manager's office of the theater, asked about the attendance, and left.
The attendance rate is quite good, it is now more than nine o'clock, from six o'clock in the afternoon to now, it is basically full, and it is estimated that it is full all night today, and the attendance rate is estimated to be 50% throughout the day.
But the quality of the movie, it's a bit unsatisfactory, the key is that Tong Liya has to watch 3D, the pseudo-3D effect of the transformation is really bad, only the subtitles are three-dimensional, and the eyes of people watching it are tired.
The audience evaluation on the Internet is also relatively average, mainly because it is not as good as the first one, and the sense of expectation is completely gone.
The story is probably that Zhao Wei, the princess who lost her charming appearance, and Chen Kun, the guard who grew up with her childhood sweetheart, but Chen Kun just didn't want to face this relationship.
Zhou Xun, the fox demon who suffered from 500 years of ice for love, returned to the world with the infatuation of being a man, what she needed was a heart that was willing to give, so she charmed Chen Kun with witchcraft.
And persuaded Zhao Wei with the sentence "In the eyes of men, there is only a woman's skin", so Zhao Wei changed Zhou Xun's skin with his heart, and after Chen Kun knew the truth, he blinded his eyes......
At the end of the story, although Chen Kun was blind, he got a woman who cultivated both inside and outside.
This story, how to put it, seems to be about the dilemma of marriage and love faced by contemporary audiences: can love withstand temptation and test? Is it a woman's skin or heart that men love?
In terms of theme, it seems to be stronger than the first part, Wu Ershan had satirized "Painted Skin" in an interview before, saying that it was too much like a family ethics drama.
But this story is not as good as the first family ethics drama, at least the story is told well and the characters are erected.
In addition, the villain died inexplicably, and he was neither Chinese nor Western, and his appearance was completely the same as Voldemort in "Harry Potter".
The whole movie has little to do with the word painted skin, as well as the inferior 3D effect, and the content that is far less expected.
All kinds of complaints on the Internet, and the extreme viewers even said that this is not "Painted Skin 2", but should be called "Wuji 2".
It's actually okay in itself, especially the picture is pretty good, but after all, the expectations are high, it's normal for sequels to be sprayed, and there are very few sequels that haven't been sprayed.
A day passed, and the final first-day box office also cheered up the entire film industry.
70 million on the first day, setting a new single-day box office record in mainland film history!
Domestic films, which have been in the doldrums for half a year, have ushered in the biggest movie-watching boom this year.
Yu Dong and Wang Changtian all sighed in their hearts, this year Huayang Media is another time to break out.
One Li Qian, one Huayang, the film market in the second half of this year was basically contracted by both of them, which is something that other companies don't want to see.
As the main controller, Huang Zhongjun was also in high spirits, after all, the first day of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" was only 68 million!
surpassed "God of Medicine", even if it was only the first-day box office, it was enough to make Huang Zhongjun excited.
Although it is not arrogant enough to surpass the box office record of "God of Medicine", it is a phenomenal movie that the whole people pay attention to, and the box office trend can be called against the sky.
However, with this first-day data, the billion box office is promising.
However, four days after the first weekend, the box office disappointed Huang Zhongjun.
280 million in four days, which is high enough for any movie, and the three blockbusters in last year's Chinese New Year file are not enough to watch in front of this data.
However, compared to 70 million on the first day, this data is still low.
On Monday, the polarized word-of-mouth made the movie trend not good, falling below 50% on the first working day, and only 30 million in a single day.
The perfect start, but the back pulled his hips, and Huang Zhongjun was a little disappointed.
But it's just a little disappointing, although there is not much hope for one billion, but at least it will be the highest-grossing movie since the establishment of Huayang Media, and it is not a big problem to surpass "Tangshan Earthquake".
As for the upcoming "Jaws 3", Huang Zhongjun doesn't care.
This is the third part, the law that the sequel is worse than the first is here, the second part is much worse than the first, and the third part is a little worse than the second part, which is not enough to pose a threat to "Painted Skin 2".
The first battle to encircle and suppress Li Qian is already stable!
