Chapter 564 Buying and Selling at a Loss
Although Cha Chuanxuan did regard Li Mo as a friend, and he also told him what he knew, there were not many really valuable things in it.
On the one hand, this is due to the fact that after decades of development, the Xiangjiang media has long been mud and sand, and dragons and snakes are mixed, not to mention the left, middle and right factions classified according to tradition.
On the other hand, because the Cha family is in today's Xiangjiang, their influence has almost been lost.
When Jin Yong founded "Ming Pao" in 1959, it was the initial period of economic and cultural development of Xiangjiang, from 1955 when "Book of Swords and Enmity" was published in "Business Daily", until 1972 "Lu Ding Ji" completed the pen, in this nearly 20 years, Jin Yong has become an important part of the spiritual life of Xiangjiang citizens at that time, and "Ming Pao Monthly" also with the name of Jin Yong, gradually grew into a must-read publication for Xiangjiang intellectuals at that time, until the early nineties of the last century Jin Yong transferred the Before all the shares of Ming Pao, the influence of the Cha family in Xiangjiang should not be underestimated.
However, that was the last century after all.
In 20 years, a generation has grown from infancy to youth, and the external environment has been turned upside down.
Not to mention Jin Yong, it is estimated that in a few years, the TVB TV station that was dominant in Xiangjiang is estimated to become history.
Not to mention that Cha Chuanxuan has always disliked socializing, and only likes to delve into food on weekdays......
Although the information provided by Cha Chuanxuan to Li Mo is limited, some of the things in it are still worth thinking about by Li Mo.
Is it true that outdoor variety shows only take the route of entertainment?
The answer, of course, is no.
Celestial Empire outdoor variety shows started too late, there is no comparison, not to mention for the time being, in the developed foreign TV program market, even outdoor variety reality shows can be divided into many types.
"Hell's Kitchen" is a cooking reality show;
"Survival in the Wilderness" is an outdoor survival category;
"There's a Kind of You Fry Me" takes the spoof route;
…………
Although all of the above may not be suitable for the national conditions of the Celestial Empire, one thing is certain: works that blindly go purely funny and toss stars to win ratings and occupy the market are bound to be unsustainable.
But these things are not so anxious, after all, the next "Run" that Molong Biography will release is still a relaxed and funny route.
Even if you know that the content of the company's variety shows needs to be diversified, it's one thing to know, and it's another thing to want to change when the time comes, and Mo Long has signed a long-term contract with seven C's led by Deng Chao to produce four-season programs for four years.
After a short party with Cha Chuanyan, Li Mo and the three of them still returned to the hotel in the nanny car.
Since the people from the Xiangjiang media were still staying downstairs in the hotel, the three of them went back to their rooms after returning to the hotel.
After Li Mo returned to the hotel, he ignored Tong Liya's inquiring eyes, and first went back to the room to start a video conference with Zong Shuai in the imperial capital.
"Brother Zong, how is the situation after the launch of "Extreme Challenge"?"
Facing the computer screen, Li Mo went straight to the point as soon as he came up.
Judging from the video, Zong Shuai should not be in the company this time, but judging from the full of documents next to him, this person should have taken the company's affairs home to do it.
It is estimated that there are indeed a lot of things in hand, Zong Shuai glanced at the documents next to him first, and then replied casually: "The situation is very good, I just saw the report sent below a few days ago, in the same time period of the program, our "Extreme Challenge" should already be the first." ”
"That's not what I meant," Li Mo scratched his head, thought about it for a while, and said it differently: "I mean, are there any negative comments about the content of the show?"
After a little slowdown, Li Mo spoke again: "Does it mean that our program is plagiarized, and the age of the content is low, or is it completely at the expense of consuming celebrities and making them embarrassed?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense......" Zong Shuai pursed his lips disdainfully, "What kind of program are you talking about?" There are still people who say that parent-child programs like "Where Are You Going, Dad" are over-consuming minors, and you are full of food to support these people?"
"It's not entirely because of negative evaluations," Li Mo sighed, "I just had a meal with Lao Cha today, the fat man I rescued in the Kingdom of Siam, although he doesn't understand the film and television media industry, but I think what he said is quite reasonable." ”
"What?"
"The type of program produced by a company can't all be one mold, but there must be more different choices......
"Aren't you talking nonsense," Zong Shuai said unceremoniously, "When you make movies yourself, don't you also focus on a theme and narrative to make movies?"
"That'...... Let's go next, do you want to change the mode?"
"You're the boss, you have the final say......"
“………… Forget it, let's wait until I'm done with the publicity in Xiangjiang, let's talk about it when I go back to the imperial capital," Li Mo waved his hand weakly, "By the way, I'll be in Xiangjiang, isn't Xingmei Cinema listed on the Xiangjiang stock market? Is there anything I need to do?"
"Big guy, do you finally remember that our company is going to acquire the theater chain......" Speaking of this, Zong Shuai's tears were about to fall, "Lifang and I are already busy with this and have financing...... Anyway, can you get rid of that bunch of quickly, and then find someone to take over the company's bunch of stuff as soon as possible?"
"I ...... I try to ...... as much as I can."
…………
As a rare big production of Xiangjiang films in recent years, although the media meeting of "Wushuang" in Xiangjiang was not very pleasant, the real official premiere was enough to call it a big event.
Zhou Yan said that it was needless to say, and director Zhuang Wenqiang almost pulled all the stars who had cooperated with him over to the platform.
was originally an ordinary movie premiere, but in this atmosphere, it smashed the momentum of a certain movie awards ceremony, which made Li Mo a little surprised.
However, although the premiere was full of momentum, when it came to the box office of the movie, even if it was an authentic Xiangjiang movie with a pure taste like "Wushuang", the box office in the first weekend of release could only be regarded as mediocre.
21.5 million, this is the final data for the first three days of the release of "Wushuang".
When he got this data, Li Mo was silent, and director Zhuang Wenqiang's face was indeed a little unrecognizable.
At the beginning, he mainly held promotional activities in Xiangjiang, but now this achievement is only one or two million more than the cost of holding the premiere......
Although I don't know if Zhuang Wenqiang regrets it so much in his heart, Li Mo is sure that his future movies will definitely not list Xiangjiang as a one-stop publicity location.
In addition, the box office data of "Wushuang" in the first weekend of its release in the mainland was 23.4 billion yuan......
