A total of $2.38 billion has been allocated to Facebook's three major business budgets, and $2.5 billion has been raised from the stock market.

Of course, this part of the money is first put in the account of Facebook as a fund reserve.

After all, the company has been listed, and if you want to raise funds in the future, it is not as convenient as before the listing, so you still have to save some money.

After all, to maintain the normal operation of the company, the monthly expenses are still not small.

............

After the meeting, Dong Xiaoxue returned to her office in high spirits, picked up the phone and called Li Yaqin in.

Not long after, Li Yaqin knocked on the office door, walked in and asked, "Mr. Dong, are you looking for me?"

The two are old acquaintances, and with Yu Wenfei's relationship, Dong Xiaoxue also attaches great importance to Li Yaqin, and the two are also good girlfriends in private.

Therefore, now Li Yaqin has also become Dong Xiaoxue's right-hand man.

"Sit, Yaqin, tell you a great thing!" Dong Xiaoxue took Li Yaqin's shoulders and came to the sofa affectionately and sat down.

"What's the good thing?" asked Li Yaqin in surprise.

"Mr. Fei's three are going to be adapted into TV series!" Dong Xiaoxue had a bright smile on her face.

"Ah, really? This is a great thing, those three books should have been made into a TV series a long time ago, and many fans of Fei Zong have been shouting about it for a long time. Li Yaqin said in surprise.

"Yes! Not only will it be made into a TV series, but it will also be filmed by our company itself! You can take a closer look at this plan, and I will send you over to the film and television media company at that time. Dong Xiaoxue's plan for the establishment of a film and television media company was stuffed into Li Yaqin's hands.

"This ...... Mr. Dong, I can't afford to carry such a burden, don't mess things up. Li Yaqin said a little unconfidently.

"Don't worry, I wouldn't dare to let you do such a big thing alone. At that time, a senior person in the industry will be invited to serve as the general manager, and you will be the vice president, which can be regarded as helping to watch the company. In addition, you are most familiar with these three books by Mr. Fei, and in the process of adaptation, you can put forward some more opinions.

In this TV series, we are going for the classics, but don't mess it up, otherwise we won't have the face to see Mr. Fei. Dong Xiaoxue said with a smile.

Her plan is to set up a film and television media company and an entertainment brokerage company, two major entities.

Entertainment brokerage companies, of course, are responsible for signing artists and cultivating potential artists.

And the film and television media company is responsible for investing in the filming of film and television dramas.

On the side of the entertainment brokerage company, it is necessary to dig up some senior people in the circle to be responsible, because the entertainment industry is also a circle that talks about qualifications and connections, and it is difficult for outsiders to intervene in it.

But film and television media companies are different, as long as there is an experienced industry insider at the helm, Li Yaqin can also play a monitoring role in the past.

After all, media companies are going to shoot TV series, and the capital expenditure is very large, and there is no reliable person, so it is easy to be exploited.

's own film and television media company, the first work is to shoot Yu Wenfei's "Youth Trilogy", this is indeed a clever move, the more Dong Xiaoxue thinks about it, the more she feels that this is the best choice.

Whether it's a movie or a TV series, what are you most afraid of?

Obviously, I'm afraid that others won't know!

If the audience doesn't know that there is your movie or TV series at all, then data such as box office and ratings can imagine how miserable it will be.

Under normal circumstances, the cost of publicity and promotion of a movie will be even higher than the cost of filming, and it is much higher!

For example, a movie claims to be a big production of 50 million, of which only 20 million may be used for filming costs, including 15 million actors' salaries, 5 million props and sets.

The other 30 million have been used for publicity and promotion!

The same is true for TV dramas, but the sales model of TV dramas is relatively special, so the producer does not have to bear the publicity costs, but the TV station that purchased the TV series will promote it itself.

But in any case, whether it is a big-name star or a promotion, the ultimate goal is to increase popularity before the release, so that more audiences know that such a movie and TV series are about to be released.

Otherwise, if you have the money to invite big-name stars, take out one-tenth of it, which is enough to hire powerful actors. When it comes to acting, those big names may not be better than ordinary actors. Spending so much money to invite celebrities, isn't it just for people's popularity and fan base, and people's fame is worth that salary.

In China, if you talk about popularity and the number of fans, who can compare to Yu Wenfei!

In terms of dissemination and readership, there is no one that can compare to his "Youth Trilogy"!

What's more, the users of Facebook videos and the readers of the "Youth Trilogy" fit perfectly, and they are basically the same people.

Under such circumstances, changing the "Youth Trilogy" as the pioneering work of Facebook Entertainment's self-made films is indeed the most suitable and perfect.

At that time, as long as the news is released, there is no need to think about what star to choose, the original author of this drama is the biggest star.

Anyone who has read those three books, who will miss this drama?

It can be said that at least tens of millions of publicity costs can be saved.

If you invest all the money you save into the production of the series, the quality will definitely be bad.

has a fan base and quality, it's hard to think about this kind of drama if it's not popular!

After the two discussed, they were going to dig up a senior senior in the entertainment industry and set up a brokerage company.

Then acquire a reliable film and television media company, so that the overall framework is built.

In the future, of course, it is to dig up big-name artists, poach well-known directors, and prepare for the filming of "Youth Trilogy".

............

When it comes to senior seniors in the entertainment industry who are in charge of entertainment brokerage companies, the first person Dong Xiaoxue thinks of is the well-known "Sister Hua" in the circle!

In fact, in the domestic entertainment industry, the concept of agent has not been popular for a few years.

Before ninety-eight years, there was no professional agent in China, and all artists had to find a unit to attach after graduating from a school such as Beiying Shangyi. For example, film studios, theaters, song and dance troupes in various places at that time.

Everyone is a person with an establishment, but at that time, it was not easy to mix in the establishment, the salary was very low, and the entertainment industry was a flashy world.

In order to make more money, everyone takes jobs privately, which is called "walking holes" in the circle!

In fact, it is now called a commercial performance.

If artists want to go to the acupoint, they need to have news channels and connections, but it is impossible for them to call the companies in need one by one and ask others if they want to perform commercially, so they need a middleman to introduce the business.

Sister Hua is the most famous middleman in the circle of artists in the capital!

At that time, Sister Hua's card was not so big, and she often rode a 28-bar bicycle and ran around to contact commercial performance units.

After receiving the job, he called the artists he was familiar with one by one.

"Hey, there is a shopping mall in Xidan that wants to hold an event, you come over and sing two songs, show up and take a photo or something, the appearance fee is 2,000 yuan, can you come?"

"Are you free in the past two days, there is a restaurant open, you need a few little stars to support you, just come over for a meal and take a photo, a thousand yuan appearance fee, do you want to do it?"

At that time, the artists were quite humble, except for the particularly popular ones, most of the artists didn't make much money.

Sister Hua relies on her own efforts, has a lot of work in her hands, and she has always given the artist as much as she wants.

Even if the business unit deducts her money, Sister Hua would rather pay for it herself, and she will not lose a penny of the artist's money, and she will slowly become famous.

Huayi's Mr. Wang once commented on Sister Hua, saying that she is the kind of "nanny-style" agent, who is too good for her subordinate artists.

And Huayi can become the largest film and television media company in China, that is, because it has attracted a big director and one of the most famous agents.

Of course, the big director is Gangzi, and the agent is Sister Hua!

In 2004, Huayi Brothers has become the most powerful film and television media company in China, shooting many popular movies.

For example, "Endless", "A Sigh", "No Thieves in the World", "Big Names", "Mobile Phone", etc., the so-called Chinese New Year films are also the concept they launched.

In addition, with Sister Hua, the first agent in China, and even more big-name artists, it can be said that she is the strongest star lineup in the domestic entertainment industry.

Shuangbing, Chen Zhiming, Liu Jialing, Liang Jiahui, Xia Yu, etc., these are all artists under Sister Hua.

............

After listening to Dong Xiaoxue's explanation of Sister Hua's situation, Li Yaqin's heart moved, and suggested: "Then we can directly acquire Huayi Brothers, this is the largest film and television media company in China, and after acquiring this company, it will save us a lot of things." ”

Dong Xiaoxue is right when she thinks about it, Huayi Brothers is originally a comprehensive entertainment company, and it also has a brokerage business, if it is acquired, it will be able to lay a good foundation.

Then I made additional investment and expanded on the original scale of Huayi, and the work was easy to do.

"Okay, I'll send someone over there to contact you right away and see what Huayi means over there. She said dryly.

As for the question of how much Huayi is worth, Dong Xiaoxue never thought about it at all, to be honest, in terms of the situation in the domestic entertainment industry at that time, a small media company could be worth a few dollars.

If it's dead, Huayi estimates that they dare to shout an offer of two or three hundred million, if they plan to sell it......

..................

In the capital, Huayi Brothers Company, in the CEO's office, Mr. Wang is discussing things behind closed doors.

"What, big brother, you said Facebook is going to buy our Huayi Brothers?" Xiao Wang asked with a surprised face.

Huayi Brothers Company was founded by Mr. Wang's two brothers, Mr. Wang is responsible for the company's internal management, and Mr. Xiao Wang is responsible for external publicity.

Of course, the company really has the final say, and it is Mr. Wang.

After all, he basically took out the money to set up the company at the beginning, and he accounted for the most shares.

"It's Facebook Entertainment, it's a business unit under Facebook, and I don't understand the internal organizational structure of their big company. The king waved his hand and said.

"If Facebook comes forward to buy us, I can still understand, why does a department even want to buy our company?
