The assistant's sudden voice woke He Chen from his contemplation, and he turned his head to see an old man with silver hair, holding a wine glass, and United Airlines with some smiles standing behind him.

Seeing the old man's face, He Chen's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly stood up: "Mr. Ke, I'm sorry...... You sit, you sit. ”

The person who came was the director of Tang Film and Television and the founder, few people would call him by his name, people in the circle called him Mr. Ke, and some people called Mr. Ke in private. and the current CE O Xiao Ke of Tang Film and Television.

It has been more than ten years since Mr. Ke stepped down from the management of Tang Film and Television, but in the circle, he is still an old man with great prestige.

For example, today's more important cocktail party in the domestic cultural industry was jointly initiated by him and the CEOs of several other well-known domestic cultural private enterprises.

He Chen is the CEO of Yinhe.com, and he is also the director of several other cultural and affiliated industry companies, and if he goes out, he can be regarded as a popular Internet figure. Especially the Galaxy Network press conference two years ago has improved his personal fame a lot.

But even so, in a drinking party like today, his identity can only be regarded as in the middle rank.

And the old Mr. Ke in front of him is a veteran-level "member".

He Chen hurriedly got up and asked the old man to sit down, and his eyes glanced at Mr. Ke, who was talking happily with many people over there.

That person is his primary goal today.

"Mr. Ke, how are you doing lately?"

When the old man sat down, He Chen withdrew his gaze and sat aside to chat.

In fact, there is not much intersection between the old man and the galaxy network.

Even before today, He Chen and the old man hadn't even spoken a word, and they had met once.

Moreover, there is gossip that at the beginning of the development conference of Yinhe.com, it invited partners in the entertainment industry, including Tang Film and Television, and it was an important partner. It's just that, I don't know why, when the contract was finally officially signed, Tang Film and Television was suddenly stopped.

It is said that it is the meaning of the old man in front of him.

This is just said, but there is no wind and no waves, probably because as the founder of the older generation of domestic cultural industry, it is understandable that the old man despises the online literature industry.

He Chen chatted with the old man about some daily life, including the recent domestic film and television dramas. After a dozen sentences, the old man paused and turned the topic to the Galaxy Network: "I heard that there have been some problems in the development of the Galaxy Network recently?"

He Chen sighed slightly, and said with a smile: "Yes, bucking the trend, Mr. Ke, if it weren't for the fact that this cocktail party was a grand event for all domestic entertainment practitioners, I would have to come, and I wouldn't even have the face to come to see these people." ”

"What's this, the success or defeat is just the company and the product, Mr. He's vision and courage in the cultural industry, I have heard of it a long time ago?"

The old man smiled.

"What kind of vision and courage? If there were, the galaxy network would not be what it is now. ”

He Chen said.

"It seems that Mr. He's confidence in the galaxy network is not very strong?"

The old man looked at him.

"Actually......"

When He Chen heard this, his mind turned around, and he wanted to answer, but suddenly realized something, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ke, I shouldn't complain about these private matters in front of you on such an occasion......

The old man bowed his hand: "It's okay." ”

Seeing that the old man was not angry, He Chen was also slightly relieved in his heart.

There was a sudden silence between the two.

He Chen thought about it, gritted his teeth, and said: "Mr. Ke, in fact, I came over today, and I still had some thoughts of asking for help, and I also wanted to have the opportunity to ask Mr. Ke for some clever ideas. ”

He Chen's goal is actually in Tang Film and Television.

In the final analysis, the most important one is the press conference plan two years ago.

The development of the entire on-site IP has been hit, which in turn has triggered a series of reactions and changes, resulting in problems with funding, on-site traffic, and so on.

If this time, Galaxy can carry out in-depth cooperation with Tang Film and Television, and develop some word-of-mouth projects as soon as possible within a year or two, then for them, there will be a chance to regroup. Otherwise, with the current situation of the galaxy, although it is said that it will not decline or go bankrupt, the ending after that is not what He Chen wants to see.

For such a company that he almost single-handedly created, whether it was feelings or expectations for it, He Chen did not want to abandon it.

If you want to cooperate with Tang Film and Television, the most important thing is to get through the level of Xiao Ke.

But it's hard.

However, Mr. Ke suddenly came to him, and some of the meanings made him guess.

"I heard Xiao Ke talk about your galaxy network, and I also know about your plans for the past two years. ”

The old man looked at He Chen and continued, "Actually, it is not difficult to save the Galaxy Net, the key is to see if you can find out the crux of the problem. ”

"Oh?"

He Chen's eyes lit up slightly.

"Or rather, you, and your galaxy web, find what you really want. ”

"Please make it clear to Mr. Ke. ”

He Chen was busy listening.

"Mr. He, you are from an online article, and you should know the most about the content of the online article itself. ”

The old man said, "I don't know if you know anything about the content of your website itself?"

"Mr. Ke, I myself was also a fan of martial arts back then, and over the years, I have also paid great attention to the content trend of the entire website. ”

"Then Mr. Ke, do you know about film and television adaptations?"

"This ......"

He Chen didn't understand that the old man asked this question, but after thinking about it, he said truthfully, "The film and television adaptation of Yinhe.com has a professional department, and I myself just have a general understanding of the direction." ”

"Then what do you think is the film and television adaptation of the online text, in terms of content feasibility?"

The old man asked again, "Tell me the truth." ”

He Chen looked at the old man, pondered for a while, and said: "At present, most of the Galaxy Online, especially those that are biased towards boys, may be easier in terms of anime or game adaptation. However, most of the adaptations in live-action film and television dramas are still difficult. ”

In fact, as the CEO of Galaxy.com, such words should not be said either inside the company or outside the company.

The reason why the online text company can be favored by so much capital now is because it has the foundation of the story here, and has the potential for film and television drama adaptation and IP adaptation.

As the CEO of an online text company, it is natural to brag infinitely about his adaptation potential.

At the same time, many online literature companies are controlled by capital forces, or the real leaders do not understand online articles, so they also think so, and feel that their company's must have potential.

But in fact, the development of online texts is completely different from the development of some ready-made short stories.

This involves the real professional issue of script adaptation.

And He Chen, in fact, he just understood.

This is the reason why he has always had reservations about the great strides of online articles. At the Yinhe Network press conference that year, I actually resisted in my heart.

However, externally, whether it was two years ago or today, he has to show his incomparable confidence and pride in online writing.

If it was Mr. Xiao Ke sitting on this sofa today, He Chen would never have said what he just said.

However, just because of the old man's "truth", he said what he really thought in his heart.

When the old man heard what he said, he stared straight into his eyes, as if he wanted to see the truth of his words.

After a moment, he smiled and said, "It seems that He always really understands the Internet." I've asked the heads of the other two companies before, including some investors, but the answer they gave me was that it was completely suitable, or rather, not very difficult. ”

He Chen listened, smiled, and didn't say anything.

In fact, whether a text is suitable for adaptation or not, professionals have the final say.

However, in such a capital environment, what professionals say does not count. Professionals are led by management who have not even read the Internet, and the effect can be imagined.

He Chen, he reads online literature himself, and is even one of the first group of people who founded the online literature industry.

However, when running the entire galaxy network, he himself had to be restrained by the power of some capital and say some things against his will.

......

Having said that, in fact, He Chen and the old man have already met frankly.

Under such a premise, there will naturally be no more cooperation.

However, He Chen's expectation for the old man is to use his knowledge to show the way to the galaxy.

And the old man, looking at him, for a long time, just said, "Timing." ”

"Timing?"

He Chen was slightly stunned.

"Mr. He, I think you should have heard a rumor. ”

The old man said, "For two years, the cooperation between Tang Film and Television and your galaxy network was finally stopped, which was requested by me." ”

"This ......"

"Actually, I was really involved in this decision. Because, according to my understanding at the time, I felt that it was not suitable for you to hold such a press conference at that point in time. Now,"

The old man looked at him, "It's still not suitable." ”

"What does Mr. Ke mean......"

"Mr. He, I believe you understand online texts, you should know what I'm talking about?"

He Chen was a little silent.

In fact, he vaguely understood what Mr. Ke meant.

However, this meaning is something he does not want to see.

At the same time, it is also against the trend.

It is even more spurned by the capital market.

However, it is right.

The ending of the press conference two years ago is a testament to this.

As for now, all the online text companies, and even many small online text companies under the Big Three, are seeking capital and IP development, and the capital market is also desperately trying to dig gold from the online text, whether it is a suitable time is still difficult to say.

"Actually, at the beginning, Xiao Ke and I made up our minds to give up cooperating with you, judging that this was not a suitable opportunity, it was because of one person. ”

The old man said again.

Because of one person?

He Chen was a little shocked.

What kind of person can make Mr. Ke, the two bigwigs in the film and television industry obedient?

And, because of his words, gave up such a big strategic strategy?

"Mr. Ke, I don't know if I can know his name?"

He Chen couldn't help but ask.

"This is a person you should be familiar with. It's Lin Bao. ”

"Lin Bao, you mean Teacher Lin Bao?"

He Chen was stunned.

How can it be?

Looking at the expression on the old man's face, it didn't look like he was joking.

But such a fact is completely unacceptable to He Chen.

Who is Lin Bao.

Yes, he is a master of music.

He is a master of performance theory.

is still a director with a multi-billion box office.

Yes, the recent "Song of Ice and Fire" has made all domestic film and television companies, entertainment companies, and Internet companies excited.

These names are indeed terrifying.

However, I don't seem to have heard of him having any understanding of online texts?

How could such a master figure go back and read a book on the Internet. This is not in line with the psychology of online writing. At the same time, it can be seen from his release of "The Self-cultivation of Actors" on the online website.

Lin Bao and the studio behind him, the only judgment on online literature, including investing in Yinhe.com, He Chen also talked to Zheng Rong before, is based on the current popularity of the entire online literature industry.

Not to mention Lin Bao's studio, it is almost an Internet company now, and those who have funds want to invest in online articles.

However, this does not mean how deep Lin Bao's understanding and judgment of online texts are. It is even more impossible, because his personal judgment has affected the decision-making of the entire Tang people!

You must know that two years ago, when Galaxy opened that press conference, Lin Bao was still an unknown junior. At that time, there was no music square that is now famous all over the country, and Lin Bao at that time was just the owner of an ordinary barbecue restaurant.

He Chen can see a lot of photos from that year.

How can such a person know Mr. Ke and let the other party listen to him?

He Chen had too many doubts in his heart.

Still pondering.

However, the old man obviously had no intention of continuing to talk, and made a gesture to stand up.

He Chen was also busy putting down the wine glass and helping the old man up with his assistant.

"Hehe, Mr. He, I chatted with you a few words, old man, and I think you are a real person and a person who really understands online literature. So, a suggestion for you. ”

Before the old man left, he still left a few words, "If you want to save the galaxy network, you won't find the answer at a cocktail party like today." Including you going to find Xiao Ke, even if he agrees in the end, the development of the galaxy network will definitely not become what you imagined. If you really want to do a good job of online writing, go to Lin Bao. I heard that he has recently invested in your galaxy, which is a good opportunity, but also the only one. ”

......

Looking at the back of the old man leaving, He Chen stood there stunned for a while, turned his head and glanced at the assistant, then sat down again, drank all the wine in the wine glass, and then said, "Go!"

"Mr. He, other plans for today...... Let's go now, I don't need to say a word to Mr. Ke and them......"

"No need. What words of thanks, once again. ”
