Zhong Yue's plan to make a live-action movie was only mentioned once to the people at the same table at the dinner after the last show. Zhao Jingmei was able to find out, and she was indeed well-informed. "Yes, I do have a plan, but the script is still in the works," he said. ”

Zhao Jingmei knew that he attached great importance to the script, and in order to write the script, relying on the relationship between Chengying, he found four or five professional screenwriters, revised them successively, and finally formed a screenwriting team of eight people to check and supplement the script, which is the current finished product.

This takes a lot of time, and it will naturally take a lot of time. Maybe in a month or two, it will be difficult to get results.

She asked about it, but it was just a beginning, and the real point was not this matter. She asked, "Zhong Yue, are you interested in taking a stake in Chengying?" ”

Zhong Yue was very surprised, stared at her face for a while, saw that her expression was solemn, not like a joke at all, and became serious, and asked, "Chengying's situation, is it already so bad?" ”

Some time ago, due to the cooperation and distribution of Chengying Media Group, he also paid a little attention to it, and he didn't know if he didn't see it, and he was shocked when he saw it.

Chengying's stock price has fallen to less than one-third of its original level. It's just tragic.

This kind of decline is too exaggerated, he couldn't help but be curious, and went to check it, only to find out that it was affected by the stock market crash last year. He himself does not speculate in stocks, and he does not have a company listed. There isn't much attention paid to the stock market. After a quick check, I realized how big the impact was.

The year before last, taking advantage of the rapid development of the film market, Chengying relied on good performance. It is also a big bull market in the stock market. The stock price is rising. It has reached an unprecedented height, with a market value of more than 30 billion.

That was also the pinnacle of Zhao Jingmei's life.

Unfortunately, the good times were short-lived. It didn't take long for Chengying's top directors to leave because of the uneven distribution of benefits. lost this money-absorbing weapon, and the next few film projects did not perform well.

Since then, the stock price has been falling. By the time the entire stock market plummeted last year. Chengying's stock price has plummeted. At its worst, it was only a quarter of the peak.

It was also after this year that the stock market recovered slightly, and the stock price rose a little more, coupled with the strong performance of the recent issuance, which drove the stock price back.

Today, Chengying's market value is about 9 billion. Compared with the original market value of 30 billion, it can be said that it has suffered a heavy loss.

In his opinion, Zhao Jingmei's invitation to him to join the shares is nothing more than to pull Yi Entertainment into Chengying's chariot. That's the case. In the future, the animated films produced by Yi Entertainment will definitely be distributed by Chengying. This is for Chengying. Definitely big positive news.

With the success of "Diwu", Yi Entertainment has made a signboard and will inevitably become the object of competition from major distribution companies. It is not surprising that Zhao Jingmei would be so positive.

Zhao Jingmei's expression was calm and said, "It's not bad, in fact, Chengying has relieved itself, and the stock price has begun to rise." It's just that a shareholder is in a hurry to use his money and wants to sell his shares, and he thinks of you. ”

This explanation is reasonable.

Zhong Yue thought about it for a moment, but still declined, "You know, I have invested a huge amount of money in the mobile phone project, and I really have no money left, so I can only say that it is a pity." ”

Zhao Jingmei's face was a little disappointed, "That's a pity." ”

…………

Zhong Yue is not uninterested in the Cheng Film Media Group, and in the film industry, the most important thing is undoubtedly the distribution company. Just like when it comes to Hollywood, the most famous ones are the Big Six studios. And these six can hold the largest market share and stand tall for decades, relying on the almost monopoly of the entire Hollywood distribution.

Back then, Dream Factory, which was composed of Spielberg, Katzenberg, and David Geffen, wanted to challenge the six major film companies, but was still sniped by the six major companies, so he could only give up his ambition and become a pure production company.

The distribution of movies is so important, Zhong Yue wants to become a giant in the film industry, and he can't give up distribution.

And he has more on hand, not four or five billion.

The reason why he gave up this opportunity is because in his opinion, Chengying's market value is too high, and he can only win about five percent of the shares at most.

With this spare money, he might as well wait to take a stake in the TV group. Don't look at Chengying's market value once hit 30 billion, in terms of influence, it can't match the TV group that owns TV stations, provincial newspapers, online media, etc.

After the celebration banquet, Zhong Yue rushed to Yizhi Company, and the countdown to the listing of mobile phones had begun. Now whenever he has time, he will go to Yizhi Company to take charge.

When he went to Yi Zhi, it happened that Xu Ruoyun was also there, so he went to her office to sit for a while. Since the Chinese New Year, she has been running around the country with people, and she has also worked hard to establish a complete sales channel.

It is said that because she focuses on Yi Zhi's side, the directors of Xu's Investment are very dissatisfied with her.

Zhong Yue chatted with her for a while and talked about Zhao Jingmei's invitation to him to join the shares.

"You didn't say yes, did you?" When Xu Ruoyun heard this, he frowned and asked.

Seeing her reaction, Zhong Yue's heart sank and said, "No, I refused." ”

"That's good. Chengying is in this muddy water, don't wade into it. Xu Ruoyun reminded.

Zhong Yue couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that Chengying's situation is bad?" ”

"It's worse than you think."

Xu Ruoyun explained to him, "At the beginning, Zhao Jingmei was eager to go public, attracted many investors into the company, and relied on this money to buy other companies everywhere, packaging Chengying into a huge media group. And she succeeded, and once she went public, all shareholders reaped huge returns. ”

"Zhao Jingmei is indeed quite capable, and lucky, she met a talented director, and it is with this director's works that she has repeatedly won high box office, which has made Chengying's stock price rise steadily, and its market value once rushed to 30 billion."

Speaking of this, Xu Ruoyun looked appreciative, obviously admiring Zhao Jingmei's methods.

"If Zhao Jingmei can withdraw at that time, it will undoubtedly be a classic case of capital operation. It's a pity that she was carried away by the huge success and her ambitions swelled to make Chengying a giant in the film industry. And that's what it turned out to be. ”

"Don't look at Chengying's market value and maintain it at the level of nine billion, you think it's really worth so much money. When Chengying's stock price plummeted last year, Zhao Jingmei persuaded the board of directors to use the company's funds to buy back a large number of shares in order to stabilize the stock price. to maintain at this price. ”

"Now, the stock price has finally begun to rise, and some shareholders of Chengying will definitely not let go of this opportunity and try to get out. At this time, Zhao Jingmeila, the most fundamental reason for you to invest in Chengying is that you are afraid that shareholders will sell their shares and have an impact on the stock price that has finally stabilized. ”

Zhong Yue listened to her analysis and couldn't help but sigh that the mall was really treacherous, full of traps. Fortunately, he has always been cautious, knowing that he is not good at this, so he simply does not play with others and plays his own.

Therefore, every company he created must not only own the vast majority of the equity, but also firmly grasp the right to operate. This puts the company firmly in your hands.

It's not that he doesn't know that bringing in more strong partners can make the company's development a little faster. It's not that I don't know that if I borrow money from a bank, I can increase the speed of my business expansion.

But he didn't do it for the simple reason that he knew he couldn't play this. On capital operation, on conspiracy and trickery, Xu Ruoyun and Zhao Jingmei both dumped him a few streets, and even Jiangling was much stronger than him.

Since you know your weaknesses, you naturally want to play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses. He doesn't give anyone a chance at all, I don't let you take a stake, you want to dilute my stake? Not even a door. I don't take out a loan, you want to cut my capital chain? Don't even think about it.

This practice is very inefficient, and this kind of behavior of eating alone can easily cause public anger. But Zhong Yue is not afraid, whether it is bright or dark, he has full confidence.

Just like this time, Zhao Jingmei wanted to use Chengying to lure him. But he just didn't move, no matter how many tricks she had, she couldn't do it.

With Zhong Yue's approach, he will either start from scratch, set up a distribution company by himself, and then poach people from Chengying. Or wait until Chengying is about to go bankrupt, and then buy it as a wholly-owned company.

Zhao Jingmei calculated him like this, he was not surprised at all, and he could not be called angry.

Zhao Jingmei's change in attitude towards him was because of interests. Those who helped him were also because of interests. Now he is calculated like this, also because of interests.

Zhong Yue has a clear understanding of her.

After chatting about Zhao Jingmei. The two began to discuss various matters related to the listing of mobile phones.

Zhong Yue plans to launch three models of mobile phones, a high-end mobile phone priced at 3,500, a mid-range mobile phone priced at 1,900, and a low-end mobile phone priced at 8,808.

And the main promotion on the advertisement is the mid-range mobile phone, the selling point is power saving and high cost performance.

The launch of the phone is just next Monday, and there are only a few days left. At that time, there will be a large-scale press conference, and the media and dealers from all over the country will be invited.

For the launch of the mobile phone, Zhong Yue and Xu Ruoyun have used all the resources they can use. He advertised in the "Diwu" animation, "Ice Sculpture Lord", in the easy-to-manage app store, and even in all the games produced by Yichangyou.

In addition, he personally went out to create a series of news and scandals to make his mobile phone famous. It can be said that everything he can has already been done.

Now, just wait for the day when the phone will hit the market.

This is an extremely critical step in Zhong Yue's career, and he can't afford not to pay attention to it. (To be continued......)
