Chapter 242: The Prototype of the Entertainment Kingdom
[The expanding Dream Factory, the ambitious Wang Meng, the prototype of an entertainment kingdom. 】
The headline was eye-catching, and one story published the following side of the news:
["It can be seen from the recent press conference of DreamWorks that this entertainment company, which has been established for less than two years, has begun to plunder everywhere with its teeth and claws.
Through the merger and acquisition of Tudou Video, which is now the 'Dream Chasing Video' website, plus Marvel Comics and Marvel Animation, which is now 'Dream Marvel', as well as 'Dream Media', and even the maverick 'Dream Effect'.
I have seen the prototype of an entertainment kingdom, and the behind-the-scenes manipulator of this immature entertainment kingdom is our genius director Wang Meng.
After two years of hard work, continuous success, outstanding vision, excellent investment, and accumulation of funds, Wang Meng has continued to make moves in all directions of the entertainment industry chain.
Now DreamWorks has its own publicity channels, its own video broadcast website, and the first official special effects company in China.
It's not hard to see that as long as DreamWorks maintains its current momentum, it will continue to grow for two years.
When everything is stabilized, an entertainment giant company with strong comprehensive capabilities, a stable industrial chain and abundant funds will be born.
And its ability to resist risks will be greatly strengthened.
According to the grapevine, today's DreamWorks is secretly still recruiting all kinds of talents.
As far as I know, Dream Special Effects is negotiating the merger plan of several small special effects companies in China, as well as the attraction of talents.
Whereas...... Headquarters DreamWorks is even recruiting, and all kinds of photography talents, directing talents, screenwriters, etc., are recruiting.
But if you think that's all there is to it, you're wrong.
It is understood......
The recent hot suspense adventure novel "Ghost Blows the Lamp" has been bought out by DreamWorks. His "First Close Contact", "Days of Living with a Flight Attendant", "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love", etc., were also bought out by DreamWorks for film and television adaptation rights.
And according to the DreamWorks grapevine.
Next year, DreamWorks will not only have Wang Meng's magic blockbuster "Painted Skin".
Wang Meng's old partner Wang Peng will also shoot a TV series alone.
Liu Zhiyuan, Wang Meng's royal photographer, will set up a project to shoot a movie.
Finally, there is Ning Hao, who became famous with "Crazy Stone", the new film will also be approved, and in terms of Marvel, it is said that the animated movie plan will be opened.
This is still what we know, and we don't know how much more.
It's not hard to see.
Wang Meng, including DreamWorks, has outrageous ambitions for next year, and if this series of plans is successful, Wang Meng's entertainment kingdom will be consolidated in a short period of time.
In fact, when you think back to Wang Meng and DreamWorks, are they really so rich? Why do they keep acquiring various companies? Are movies really making money like this?
Not really!
Wang Meng didn't spend much money, but with the help of the rising momentum of Marvel and DreamWorks, as well as the original shares.
After all, such as DreamWorks and Marvel, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the future is limitless, and exchanging equity with such a company is a sure bet.
Of course...... There are also risks.
But this risk, which may have disappeared in a few years, is still there.
The risk is Wang Meng, whether it is DreamWorks or Marvel. It can be said that it doesn't add up to Wang Meng's head to make money.
Wang Mengyong, again and again, beyond ordinary people's vision and genius ideas, held up a piece of the sky alone. It can also be said that Wang Meng is selling ideas and ideas.
Only when DreamWorks can keep moving forward quickly without relying on Wang Meng, will it be truly safe.
This is the intention of DreamWorks to constantly recruit talent, and it is clear that they also know their shortcomings.
To put it bluntly, today's era is an era of selling ideas and ideas.
Through the above, the audience can understand that DreamWorks is not as simple as we know, and Wang Meng is not as simple as we know. If this momentum continues, it will not be difficult for our country to produce a figure like Bill Gates.
But what I admire about Wang Meng is that it is pure.
Although the current Dream Factory is inseparable from Wang Meng, Wang Meng must work hard, but at such an age, he has such achievements, but he puts aside his enjoyment and continues to engage in the directing industry, which is commendable and a pure beauty.
Perhaps, as he said, he is just a director, he was, is and will be.
And he has built a kingdom of his own with his own hard work, and he has also brought one dream after another to the audience through his genius thinking, and then he will take us into the dream of "Painted Skin", as for what else will happen in the future, it is worth looking forward to.
I sincerely hope that his kingdom will become strong and no longer the kingdom of one person, but the kingdom of all entertainers. ”】

With the news of DreamWorks' expansion and mergers and acquisitions, the entertainment industry was shaken.
Everyone knows that DreamWorks has really stood up, and Wang Meng has advanced to the big crocodile.
The future of this person will be brighter in the future.
Even, various recent reports have to make way for this incident, including "You at the Same Table", which has received much less attention.
In the fifth week of the journey of "You at the Same Table", the box office finally fell to the 10 million mark, and only won 8.69 million at the box office in the fifth week. The comprehensive five-week success exceeded 100 million, and the mainland box office reached 10,154 million, that is, 101.54 million.
The box office of more than 100 million yuan in five weeks makes "You at the Same Table" worthy of the 'phenomenal' effect it caused.
Similarly, this year, the fourth Chinese film in China to break 100 million was born.
currently ranks fourth, the first is 291 million "The City is Full of Golden Armor", the second is 130 million "Night Banquet", the third is 105 million "Huo Yuanjia", and the current "You at the Same Table" 101 million ranks fourth.
Of course, if you count all the releases, including Hollywood, there are six this year, including 105 million "Da Vinci - The Code" and 1.02 "King Kong".
In terms of overall ranking, "You at the Table" ranks sixth.
However, the others have been drawn, "You at the Same Table" is still in theaters, I dare not say that it will exceed the top two, but it is still okay to surpass "Da Vinci - Code", "King Kong" and "Huo Yuanjia".
And Wang Meng has also become the fourth big director with a box office of more than 100 million yuan after 2000, with Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, and Chen Kaige in front of him.
When the report came out, many people were already numb, just talking about the expansion of DreamWorks, and now saying that the box office has broken 100 million. Don't bring this!
The feelings on the Internet are the most intuitive, and Wang Meng's recent news is well known.
"Brother Meng's "You at the Same Table" has exceeded 100 million, and there is my credit for it, congratulations, congratulations, and the whole world celebrates. ”
"Brother Meng is getting more and more, just heard about the expansion of DreamWorks, not only fed up with potatoes, but also set up a special effects company, and now it is even more powerful, and the box office has exceeded 100 million yuan. The fourth director to break 100 million after 2000! Is it possible to call Brother Meng a great director?"
"Big directors are not so easy to get, and there are only three big directors in China at present, national teachers, Kaige, and Xiaogang Cannon. This is a great director, not only the precipitation of the years, but also groundbreaking, and even the epitome of an era. In fact, Brother Meng's achievements are not bad at all, creating soft science fiction and creating youth themes, only these two achievements, ordinary people may not get one in their lifetime. However, Brother Meng's youth has risen too fast, and people can't help but think that he is a newcomer. However, as long as Brother Meng's new film "Painted Skin" is also successful, and it is best to break 100 million, then it will be fine, and the big director will definitely deserve his name at that time. ”
"Well, what I said upstairs is very right, in fact, it's not good for us to call Brother Meng the director now, this will bring a lot of trouble to Brother Meng, and some bullshit people will come out to refute it, so we will be unhappy, and Brother Meng will not be happy. So don't worry, it's Brother Meng's, it's Brother Meng's, you can't run, it's not Brother Meng's strong request, you can't force it, let's wait for Brother Meng's "Painted Skin" to succeed and then congratulate it. ”
There are also people on the Internet who understand that the title of big director is not easy to get, in order not to cause trouble for Wang Meng, many fans of Wang Meng do not mention it, which makes Wang Meng very moved.
But even if they don't mention it, such an achievement will not be overshadowed.
The reporters have been taught by Wang Meng several times, and they don't dare to choke Wang Meng, and the expansion of DreamWorks is really scary, you dare to discredit Wang Meng, beware of walking at night.
Therefore, the report is very calm, and almost eighty percent of the praise is praised, even if you are not used to it, you can say a few words without pain.
This is the best verification of strength and fame, as long as Wang Meng does not make big mistakes in China in the future, there are not many people who dare to touch his tiger beard.
And after a period of public opinion dissemination, where Wang Meng's new film has come is what everyone is looking forward to the most.
After all, no matter how great Wang Meng's achievements are, it will not hinder the lives of fans! The only thing fans can contact is Wang Meng's works, so for a while, the discussion about "Painted Skin" was widely circulated by everyone.
It is not difficult to see from Brother Meng's establishment of a special effects company that Brother Meng is accumulating for "Painted Skin". Even, in order to accumulate "Transformers" in the future, Brother Meng never fights uncertain battles, it depends on Brother Meng's adequate preparation, I am looking forward to "Painted Skin". ”
"I have to say,My country finally has a decent special effects company,Although I don't know the strength yet,But I'm glad that there is? It was my idol Brother Meng, who established this special effects company.,I have to say that this is fate.,It's also a kind of resonance.。 Why don't other people do it? In the first two years, you may not know what special effects are, but in the past two years, when "Harry Potter" and "King Kong" and other films are released, can't some people in China see it?"
"Huh...... Everyone knows it, but they are not willing to spend money, do you know how expensive the special effects are? Only Brother Meng has such courage, so he is our idol. ”
"I don't pay much attention to that, as long as the movie is good, now I just want to ask how 'Painted Skin' is? Is the cast decided? When will it start?"
This netizen's words have received the support of many people, and they all want to inquire about how far "Painted Skin" has come.
Even, they left messages on Wang Meng's blog and asked.
Some time ago, Wang Meng announced that the voting for the selection of the actor in "Painted Skin" was also conducted on the blog.
Ninety percent of the support rate, Wang Meng as the male lead, is expected.
Wang Meng also continued to be the leading actor 'reluctantly', at least he didn't need to communicate, and he was sure of his acting skills.
And the selection of the heroine and the selection of supporting roles, Wang Meng is contacting one by one on the phone.
On this day, Wang Meng called Zhao Wei's phone......
