Chapter 094: Not Enough Vision
To be honest, in his previous life, Li Mo has been in the film and television industry for many years, and there has always been a question that has never been clearly answered: why HY, which started as a film and television producer, clearly put forward the 'de-cinematicization' strategy when it was just listed, and put it into practice for ten years.
Most of the people who eat melons have a sneering attitude towards this, or a gorgeous dump of the map cannon: the Wang brothers' brains are in water.
To be honest, before crossing over, Li Mo also thought so.
But after coming to this time and space, through the understanding from Zong Shuai, Li Mo found that the Wang brothers were able to develop HY from a small company with two brothers as the backbone to the first private film and television company listed in just over ten years, and then became the industry leader around 2010.
So why do they consistently pursue this strategy as the company's main business philosophy?
It seems that there will be a clear answer to this question today.
Compared with his younger brother, who is ten years younger than him, Wang Zhongjun's cultivation is indeed much better.
Even though Li Mo is about the same age as his son, and he said so much about the words he made a wish just now, Li Mo has never responded positively.
But Wang Zhongjun has never been angry or annoyed, just this bearing, I don't know how many years of experience can be raised.
In comparison, Wang Zhonglei was a lot worse, and Li Mo clearly saw a bit of anger in his eyes.
…… Who cares, though?
As long as he has the ability to bring enough benefits, Li Mo believes that Wang Zhonglei will also be honest.
……
It is estimated that before coming, he also considered that Li Mo would ask this question, Wang Zhongjun picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, sorted out his thoughts a little, and began to explain.
"Speaking of the history of our HY, there are some things that may not be known to the small sect. ”
"At the beginning, we attached great importance to actors, and even Feng Gang was not necessarily as important as those actors back then. ”
Speaking of the past a few years ago, Wang Zhongjun seems to be quite emotional.
"That's also determined by the market environment, the domestic market was not as commercial as it is now, and famous actors basically stayed in those studios with official backgrounds. ”
For this period of history, Li Mo still made up a lot of evil, at least not to be unable to answer.
"I didn't expect Xiao Li, eh, I'm older than you, don't you mind calling me that, right?"
Wang Zhongjun estimated that he rarely had the opportunity to face to face directly with such a young director, and when he spoke, he turned into his usual habitual context.
"It's okay, Mr. Wang, you don't have to care too much about what you call it. I also hope to have such a New Year's friend from you, and I can usually ask for more advice. ”
Wang Zhonglei pouted quietly beside him......
This kid is too good at climbing the pole, obviously he is about the same age as the son of the second brother (Wang Zhonglei is the second son in the family), and after this sentence, it will become a 'year-old friend'.
"Hehe, no wonder people say that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and this spirit is not comparable to ours. Where did we just go?"
"Uh, yes, I valued actors more at the time......"
Wang Zhongjun probably didn't expect Li Mo to say such a sentence, and after a few seconds of embarrassment, he still rounded the words back.
"Naturally, it is impossible for the company to directly manage the actors, and the agent who was supposed to play the role of a bridge between the company and the actors has become the person who digs the corner of the company. It was only after that that HY began to shift his focus to the director. ”
Speaking of this topic, Wang Zhonglei gritted his teeth a little.
However, Li Mo understands his emotions very well, in 2005, Wang Jinghua, known as the 'No. 1 agent in the mainland', left HY with a group of actors led by Cheng Daoming and Liu Jialing to jump to Orange Sky......
This wave of operations almost wiped out all the big-name actors under HY's command.
It is precisely because of this blow that the Wang brothers began to realize that many things in the film and television production industry are not under their full control.
At least at this point in time, a lot of times it's subject to a lot of messy factors.
"Since that time, Zhong Lei and I have realized that the film market of the Celestial Empire, or the film and television drama market, cannot develop by leaps and bounds in a short period of time. ”
"That's why we put forward the strategy of 'de-cinematization', or to put it more specifically, it should be called 'de-single cinematicization', only the development of the Internet, live entertainment, derivatives, investment funds, and diversification of income sources is the direction of HY's future development. ”
I understand, it turns out that HY has done so many things, and the real reason is: the Wang brothers are not optimistic about the development prospects of the film and television industry in the next few days, but they want to make the company bigger, so what should I do?
Their choice is to reach out to other areas that they are not familiar with, trying to make up for the loss inside the embankment......
In all fairness, are they wrong?
That's right!
Most people at this point in time would not believe that just 6 years later, the total annual box office of the Celestial Empire will be able to break through the 60 billion mark.
But if you want to make a company bigger and stronger, what leaders at the top need most is not enough foresight and judgment of the future situation?
In Li Mo's view, under the leadership of the Wang brothers, HY's development to the current height is already its limit.
Li Mo crossed relatively early, so he didn't know that HY in 2019 had once again planned its business direction to the film and television industry, and the main trump card was Feng Gang's series of works.
However, Feng Gang in 2019 is 61 years old, a generation of filmmakers serving a generation of audiences, Feng Gang, who has passed the age of sixties, really needs to put a question mark on how much appeal there is for the new generation of audiences.
Now that he already knows HY's strategic direction for the future, and has also listened to the conditions and bargaining chips of the Wang brothers, Li Mo thought about it a little and gave his own answer.
"Two Mr. Wang, Li Mo's studio is just a small company that has just been established, and the core is me and Brother Zong. ”
"Now it's just a little bit of success, the hospitality of the two today, I have made a note, there will definitely be a place to use HY in the future, and I hope that the two will not turn me away at that time. ”
"Recently, I plan to take care of the company's work, as for the cooperation invitation, it is better to wait for the company's affairs to get on the right track, let's have a good chat, right?"
The Wang brothers glanced at each other covertly, the anger in Wang Zhonglei's eyes was thicker, and Wang Zhongjun could still maintain the expression on his face.
Although Li Mo said that he would talk about it later, the meaning of refusal was still quite obvious.
Where did this kid get his confidence?
Doesn't he know that if he misses this opportunity, if he wants to talk about it in the future, it may not be the situation he is in today?
Wang Zhongjun is the superior who has been in charge of HY for many years, since Li Mo has already handed him the ladder, he will not be stupid enough to expose Li Mo's excuses, and after laughing, he will no longer continue to entangle on this issue.
"Since Xiao Li still has company matters to deal with, let's make an appointment another day. ”
"It's not too early, Xiao Li is from the Demon Capital, and he must rarely eat authentic imperial capital official dishes, so he must eat and drink well today." ”
"Zhong Lei, inform the waiter to serve the food, let's only talk about Fengyue next, not about work. ”
