Chapter 419: Three Years (6)
The first American drama "The Walking Dead" invested and filmed by Chu Shi, with only 20% of the shares in his hand, plus the markets of China, South Korea and Japan, brought a huge income of 260 million US dollars to Chu Shi.
And now, although the cost, performance, and even the countries in which the TV series "Under the Dome" and "Bankrupt Sisters" are broadcast simultaneously cannot be compared with "The Walking Dead", the shares occupied by Chu Shi in these two works are much higher than those of "The Walking Dead".
And in the end, both works achieved very good results, among which "Under the Dome" rushed into the eighth place in the annual ratings list as Chu Shi thought, which also made SCL quite regretful, you must know that at the beginning, SCL wanted to use this work to hit the top five in the annual ratings list.
The other one, which was not valued too much by AMC, thought that at best, it could squeeze into the top ten of the annual ratings list, but it was unusual, with a rather ferocious attitude, and in the first season, it secured the second place in the annual ratings list.
And sixteen countries around the world, including Huaxia, South Korea, and Japan, have achieved very dazzling results, coupled with the high share occupied by Chu Shi, as well as the stronger operational capabilities of Dimensional Entertainment Company in Huaxia, South Korea, and Japan, it will eventually lead to zhì, and the combined income of the TV series "Under the Dome" and "Bankruptcy Sisters" is even higher than the income brought to Chu Shi by last year's TV series "The Walking Dead"!
In 2011, the two works excavated all their value. A total of 320 million US dollars in horror income has been brought to Chu Shi, and this does not count the value of Beth and Kate's two TV series "Bankruptcy Sisters"!
As the second largest TV drama in the annual ratings list in the United States. Among them, the two well-deserved protagonists, Kate and Beth, have now become hot TV series stars in the United States. Regularly attending some activities, because of the American branch of the dimensional entertainment company, has also brought Chu Shi quite a lot of wealth, and Chu Shi believes that with the broadcast of the second, third and fourth seasons of "Bankruptcy Sisters", the two screen sisters will become more and more popular.
Chu Shi firmly believes that this pair of screen sisters will inevitably bring incomparably rich wealth to Chu Shi in the future, and the American branch of Dimension Entertainment Company. With the continuous production of film and television works in the future, a large number of excellent actors will eventually be gathered, and they will eventually become behemoths in the American entertainment industry!
Of course, what Chu Shi cares about at the moment is still the problem of money!
The two American dramas brought Chu Shi a fortune of 320 million US dollars, and on the Huaxia side, Chu Shi also earned about 570 million US dollars in one year, that is to say, in the whole year of 2011. Chu Shi earned more than 890 million US dollars, an incomparably terrifying number!
If the wealth accumulated last year is accumulated, Chu Shi has only had a personal account of 80 million US dollars in two years. It has become a heavy $1.7 billion.
Converted into Huaxia currency, it is tens of billions of wealth, with this wealth. Chu Shi will also become a well-deserved ruler of any entertainment company, any entertainment company. Chu Shidu can own more than half of the shares, and in the entertainment industry. It has also been determined that the wealth in the hands of Chu Shi is likely to have reached one billion, but two full years have passed, and the incomparably huge wealth in Chu Shi's hands has not been exposed, how can it not make people wonder?
If it was a normal time, it would be fine, after all, people didn't think about Chu Shi's wealth last year, but this year, Chu Shi has gained a huge wealth than last year, which naturally attracted people's attention again.
More than a billion dollars, even if it is a covert action, it will be found out of the clues, as long as you find Chu Shiqian's thoughts, even if it is just a little clue, it can make your own media achieve incomparably huge success.
Naturally, in recent times, countless people have been dispatched to find this clue.
But just like last year, no matter how hard people tried, they didn't find any clues about the whereabouts of Chu's wealth, and in the end, in desperation, there was no way out.
And Chu Haoyang, Fan Bingling and the others were too lazy to ask Chu Shi again, after all, Chu Shi had rejected all of them mercilessly last year, and they knew very well that when they could say it, Chu Shi would definitely sue them as soon as possible, and they would not persecute Chu Shi again.
It is precisely because of this that the 1.9 billion Huaxia coins in Chu Shi's hands are hidden, but with Chu Shi's character, of course, it is impossible for them to stay in the bank and eat interest, and it is natural to invest in some other industries.
However, before Chu Shi did not plan to announce it, with Chu Shi's cautious process, if nothing else, people would really not be aware of the flow of this money.
Of course, Chu Shi's harvest is not only about money, at least at the year-end conference, Chu Shi felt that his influence in the entertainment industry in Huaxia and several other countries was indeed getting bigger and bigger!
The biggest benefit, Chu Shi believes that it is talent!
After 2010, it once again became the most dazzling TV drama company, and became the first in Huaxia, and it has become the first in China, and there is considerable energy in many other countries.
Coupled with Chu Shi's instructions, Miyazaki Nami used money and opportunities without a bottom line to lure the excellent behind-the-scenes work teams from Huaxia, Japan, South Korea and even the United States to join the Dimension Entertainment Company, and then the talent resources of the branch were transferred to Huaxia, and gradually, the talent accumulation speed of the Dimension Entertainment Company reached the highest in China.
Although the fame, strength, and prestige of Dimension Entertainment Company have reached the level of top entertainment companies in the past, it is still slightly inferior in terms of high-end talent accumulation. The rapid accumulation of the past two years has made it a dimensional entertainment company in any way. All have reached the level of top entertainment companies, and in terms of speed of improvement. And better than any of the top entertainment companies.
In addition, it is the accumulation of excellent star artists! Under normal circumstances, if you want to dig up a valuable star artist, you need to pay a very high price, and the default fee paid by poaching people from other companies exceeds the value of the star artist itself, and it is precisely because of this that some big-name star artists who have been 'priced' only need to sign a contract. During the term of the contract, there is basically no change of company.
But Chu Shi is different! There are seven high-quality TV series works, which provide Chu Shi with a lot of resources, and he can easily make some not-so-famous star artists popular, and the price paid to poach these little-known star artists in advance will not be too great.
And the poached star artist just started to sign the contract with the Dimension Entertainment Company, even if Chu Shi gave a very generous contract, in fact, the sharing was naturally very low, and then he was popularized by the Dimension Entertainment Company and increased his value. Most of the profits fell into the hands of Chu Shi, and the small half fell into the hands of star artists, grateful, at least until the expiration of the contract period. will not choose to betray Chu Shi.
And after the contract expires, as long as the price offered by Chu Shi is not too excessive, in order to get more opportunities. But people will not betray Chu Shi, the great grace, and therefore so. In just one year, Chu Shi has gathered a large number of high-quality star artists!
The two protagonists of the TV series "Bankruptcy Sisters", Kate and Beth, the heroine of the TV series "A Thousand Mountains and Twilight", and even the already famous Feng Shaofeng, Yang Mi, Tong Liya and others in the TV series "Palace Lock Heart Jade". and Jiang Xin and others in the TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan", all of whom were also received by Chu Shi to Dimensional Entertainment Company.
No way! There are many celebrities in the entertainment industry, and there are actually a lot of actors to choose from for each role, if there is a small famous company or producer, it is just a good thing, and it is thank God that there is a suitable actor who is willing to play, but the works of Dimension Entertainment Company, Chu Shi, and Yu Zheng are the works that any star artist is extremely eager to participate in.
As long as Chu Shi casts openly to the public, there will be countless star artists eager to participate in it, so even if it harms some of their own interests, joining the dimensional entertainment company is nothing, not to mention that joining the dimensional entertainment company has become the dream of countless star artists.
Don't you see Chen Chi, Tang Yanran and others have all been praised by Chu Shi and become the hottest new generation of star artists in China? It's a pity that among the dimensional entertainment companies, only high-quality stars with value, potential, and ability to become big-name star artists are accepted, focusing on high-end routes, and other star artists with insufficient strength and potential, even if they are willing, Chu Shi will not accept them.
As for Sun Li, the heroine of the top two domestic dramas "The Legend of Zhen Huan" in this year's Dimension Entertainment Company, she is already an actor of Dimension Entertainment Company, naturally needless to say, the male protagonist and the No. 2 heroine are also veteran actors who have been famous for many years, and they cannot be included in the command, as for the main actors of "Love Apartment 4", they are basically actors under Dimension Entertainment Company, so there is no need to say much.
and the main actors of the American drama "Under the Dome", Chu Shi did not intervene, but gave it to AMC and SCL, but it was also quite regrettable.
But in any case, being able to bring so many powerful or potential star artists under his command has also made the lineup of Dimension Entertainment Company more and more powerful, even compared with other top entertainment companies, it is also among the best, and with the passage of time, more and more high-quality actors will also join it, contributing to the rise of Dimension Entertainment.
At the same time, what makes Chu Shi very happy is that with the efforts of Chu Shi and Miyazaki Nami in the past year, the American branch of Dimension Entertainment Company has finally grown into a real American entertainment company!
With the help of the three TV series "The Walking Dead", "Bankrupt Sisters", and "Under the Dome", many American TV stations recognized Chu Shi's ability, and finally after a series of public relations, and even paid a lot of price, Chu Shi also successfully won a share of prime-time American drama works from the hands of a TV station.
In other words, since 2012, Chu Shi has been able to produce an American drama alone! Although there is only one, it is far from being able to meet the interests of Chu Shi. But Chu Shi believes that as long as this hole is torn open. The benefits will be even greater in the future!
And with this prime time share in hand, as well as the fame brought to Chu Shi by the previous three TV series works. and Miyazaki's efforts, and finally continued in China, South Korea, and Japan, and Dimension Entertainment opened up the market in eight countries.
If your own company produces a high-quality American drama and passes the review, it will be broadcast simultaneously in the eight countries of initial cooperation, the United States, China, South Korea, and Japan, a total of 12 countries!
It's a pity that Chu Shi can only carry out preliminary cooperation with these eight countries, and cannot set up branches to operate on his own like Japan, South Korea, the United States, and Huaxia.
However, Chu Shi also firmly believes that as long as he works hard. One day, we will be able to achieve all our goals and become the world's top TV drama company!
In addition, it is necessary to talk about the development of Chu Shi's personal entertainment career!
As previously decided, since 2011, Chushi's main business has been company development, market seizure and learning, and personal entertainment is not all, or even the most core and important thing.
The first thing to determine is that Chu Shi is in the time of 2011. Unless there is an unexpected situation, the recording of the weekly variety show "Running Brother" does not dare to delay in the slightest, in addition, Chu Shi will look for a TV series suitable for himself to participate in.
A minimum of one and a maximum of two. Don't be insatiable!
But in 2011, there are really few TV series made by his own company that are suitable for Chu Shi! "The Legend of Zhen Huan" only the emperor is the protagonist, but the age requirements are quite high. Chu Shi also couldn't participate in it, and the second popular TV series "Love Apartment 4" needless to say. Chu Shi couldn't participate in it anyway, and there was no main role suitable for him in the American drama "Bankruptcy Sisters". "The Temptation to Go Home" and "A Thousand Mountains and Twilight Snow" are small-budget TV drama works, which are also not suitable for their own appearance, and although there are roles suitable for Chu Shi in the remaining American drama "Under the Dome", Chu Shi is very optimistic about the sequel results of this TV series and also refused to star.
In the end, the only thing suitable for Chu Shi was the role in the TV series "Palace Lock Heart Jade", but Chu Shi also wanted to use this TV series to make several excellent male TV series actors popular, but after hesitating, Chu Shi refused again.
In the end, Nami Miyazaki and others thought that Chu Shi might choose to take a year off and wait until next year to participate in the second season of the TV series "The Walking Dead", but Chu Shi suddenly made a choice and participated in Tang Dynasty Entertainment's 2011 ambition, that is, the TV series "Step by Step", which finally defeated "Love Apartment 4" and achieved the runner-up in the annual ratings list!
Although it is a costume drama, it is different from this year's particularly popular court drama, but the story told by the TV series "Step by Step Shocking" is the story of 'Kowloon seizing the heir' during the Kangxi period.
There is no doubt that Chu Shi plays in the play, he is the No. 1 actor in the TV series "Step by Step", the fourth elder brother Aixin Jueluo. Yinzhen, the final victor of the Kowloon Succession, the future Yongzheng Emperor.
The reason why I chose the TV series "Step by Step" is because the characters are suitable and the script is of high quality, but the most important thing is because of the heroine of this TV series......
It's Chu Shi's childhood sweetheart Liu Yushi!
Although he has a relationship with Fan Bingling, he can uphold the style of acting in his previous life, let alone now, even if he really gets married and has children, Chu Shi will not have even the slightest restraint when he hooks up with Mushroom Liang, not to mention that now Chu Shi and Fan Bingling have jointly chosen to conceal this news, which has fueled Chu Shi's arrogance!
But because he took the lead in choosing to roll the sheets with Fan Bingling, Chu Shi felt a sense of apology in his heart for Tang Yanran and Liu Yushi, Tang Yanran and the two had already cooperated once, and it was also to make up for it, or to be able to have time with Liu Yushi and deepen the relationship between the two, at least not in the future, everyone left him after everyone knew about the relationship between Chu Shi and Fan Bingling.
In the end, Chu Shi resolutely chose to star in this TV series.
To be honest, after starring in the TV series "The Walking Dead", Chu Shi's popularity has climbed to a limit, and his status is instantly above the domestic emperor and the old emperor, and when it comes to value, he has to surpass them, not to mention "Step by Step", even if Chu Shi is forced to star in the annual ratings champion "The Legend of Zhen Huan", the actor with the most appearance rate, Zhen Huan, is quite limited in his help to Chu Shi.
At best, it can reduce Chu Shi's accumulation time by three or five years, not to mention that Chu Shi is a big man, how can he play Zhen Huan? If you don't play Zhen Huan, how can there be such a valuable TV series in the Chinese TV drama industry?
was able to play the leading role in "Step by Step", which finally won the runner-up in the annual ratings, and finally became the smash hit 'Best Screen Couple' with Liu Yushi, and made the relationship between the two go further, and even when the TV series was finished, after getting drunk, the two rolled the sheets by mistake, which was already quite a huge gain for Chu Shi!
Although Chu Shi and Liu Yushi rolled the sheets because of an accident, which was a little unbeautiful, in Chu Shi's opinion, both of them already knew each other's intentions, even if there was no accident, this day would come sooner or later, it was just a matter of enjoying it earlier and enjoying it later.
Although Liu Yushi was a little worried, worried that Chu Shi, who had already achieved fame, would not look down on himself as a little star, Chu Shi used practical actions the next morning to completely accept Liu Yushi's body and mind again, so far, Chu Shi has completely dealt with this young and beautiful woman!
