Volume 1 Greed and Hatred Chapter 341 Caught in the Storm and Criticized
"Li Rui, as the CFO, I must remind you that our ticket prices are too low now, even if the sales are hot, it is still not enough to level the initial investment, do you think you should adjust the ticket price?" Chen Ting said.
Li Rui thought for a while, and said: "In this way, we can implement a VIP membership system, divided into ordinary VIP, gold VIP, diamond VIP, platinum VIP, as long as you recharge 1000 yuan at one time, you can become an ordinary VIP, and all movie tickets can enjoy a nine-percent discount in the future, and so on, every additional 1,000 yuan can enter a gear, gold VIP 80% off, diamond VIP 7% off, platinum VIP is 6% off. In this way, we have a pool of funds, and the yield can be used to offset the amount of losses."
"It's a good way, but Li Rui, we've only made a movie now, and if you ask the audience to recharge their membership at this time, if there is no more movie support, the big guy will definitely not be happy." Chen Ting said.
"yes, it's impossible to shoot a video in a short period of time." Mao Yurou also expressed concern.
Li Rui waved his hand and said with a smile: "Of course I understand what you said, I have already asked Yu Buzheng to prepare for the filming of a new film, as for not having so many movies at once, let's not worry, this can be solved by buying film rights."
"Buying Copyrights?"
Everyone looked at each other, a little confused.
Li Rui said with a smile: "We must not only shoot, manufacture, and produce good movies, but also learn to operate, good movies should be boldly bought out, and the copyright should be firmly in our own hands, and we must know that the value of a classic film is immeasurable."
"But will anyone be willing to give up the copyright?"
"Don't worry, money can make ghosts grind, as long as the price is right, someone will be willing to give it."
Sure enough, under the temptation of money, many film companies have given up the copyrights of their classic films.
Subsequently, Li Rui took advantage of the situation to create a generation of classic film exhibition season, as long as he is a member of the generation theater, he can go to the theater to watch the movie on demand at any time, even if the movie is only one audience on demand, the generation theater is willing to screen it for him, even if it is chartered.
As soon as the broadcast season of classic films was launched, the theaters were soon overcrowded, and the popularity far exceeded Li Rui's estimates, and the income naturally rose.
With advanced equipment and excellent films, Generation Cinema quickly gained a firm foothold in the film industry. The development of Generation Pictures has also started a stage of rapid development, and while they are buying films from other film companies, they are also speeding up the production of new films. At the same time, Li Rui also urged Lin Zejiang to let him build the rural theater as soon as possible.
Li Rui focused on consolidating the vast rural areas, as a partner, Chen Yunpan was also very cooperative, specially proposed a rural school revitalization plan, and established a Shancheng Rural School Education Group, inviting Li Rui to serve as a school director. This move is precisely to help Li Rui further control the rural areas and take the opportunity to cultivate a talent team for rural work.
As soon as Li Rui took office, he made a big move, directly announcing that all primary and junior high school tuition fees were free, and he also started high school and vocational education in rural areas for the first time, and guaranteed that all outstanding graduates can enter the Aoshi Group without examination in the future. For the treatment of teachers in rural schools, Li Rui is also not stingy, he suddenly offered a sky-high salary of 1 million a year, but there is one condition, that is, he must serve in the local area for more than 10 years, if he can work until retirement, Li Rui will also reward him with an additional 10 million as a glorious retirement bonus.
In the face of an annual salary of one million, those outstanding teachers in the city have taken the initiative to ask to teach in rural schools, and the problem of teaching quality in rural schools that many parents are worried about has been solved.
At the same time, Li Rui will also focus on cultivating those teachers in the teaching team who are really interested in revitalizing the countryside and building the countryside, including some parents and villagers who are grateful for Li Rui's kindness, and develop them to become the person in charge or backbone of the workstation, and become a grain of fire, and when needed, they will become a flame and burn the whole world.
Generation Cinema has gained a firm foothold, for Li Rui
A good thing, but not good news for other studios.
Just like Century Real Estate's entry into the real estate market before, the emergence of Generation Pictures will inevitably touch the cheese of some vested interests, causing their interests to suffer, and what will inevitably follow is the resistance and rejection of these vested interests.
"Generation Pictures' appetite is also too big, and it's just pushing us to a dead end!"
"Yes, they eat meat, we drink soup, Generation Pictures is the dominant family, we will never come out, and we will be suppressed by Generation Pictures all the time."
"Generation Pictures wants to monopolize the market now, what are you waiting for? Rather than be annexed, it is better to unite and fight with them!"
"Yes, fight! We can't let Generation Pictures be the only one!"
Although the generation film industry is now fledgling, it has already shown signs of dominating the film market. This made those film companies very panicked, and the end of Huaxing Real Estate Company and several other real estate companies against Century Real Estate was obvious, and they began to shout very loudly, but then they didn't admit it obediently.
These film companies don't want to follow in the footsteps of real estate companies, and want to uproot Generation Pictures while it has not taken root in the film industry. The only way is to stink the reputation of Generation Pictures first, I have to say, this is an extremely bold idea, even crazy, Generation Pictures is a subsidiary of Aoshi Group, almost no one does not know the strength of Aoshi Group, and it is difficult to make the reputation of Aoshi Group stink.
Not to mention the prestige accumulated by Aoshi Group in the past public welfare undertakings, with Li Rui's current financial resources, the person who can bring him down in the entire good city has not yet been born. Moreover, today's Aoshi Group is no longer the time to create the end of the world and support alone, the Chen family and the Mo family have formed a strategic community with it, and there are many people who want Li Rui to fall, but there are more people who want Li Rui to stand.
The grasshopper shakes the tree, and he can't measure himself, but it's ridiculous that those film companies don't know Li Rui's current strength, and they naively think that they can defeat Li Rui with a little trick.
Soon there was a news on the Internet, saying that Generation Pictures, a subsidiary of Aoshi Group, intended to monopolize the film and television market. In some industries, monopoly is expressly permitted, such as the aphrodisiac market, but in some other industries, monopoly will face legal sanctions, one of which is the film and television entertainment industry. Because once film and television entertainment is monopolized, it will lead to only one voice in the entire market, which is not only not conducive to healthy development, but also threatens the dominance of the authorities, so the Fourth Reich is relatively strict in this regard, even harsh.
Those film and television companies are planning to take advantage of this and crack down on Generation Pictures. Therefore, as soon as the news on the Internet was released, it immediately caused a lot of turmoil. When these film and television companies cite all kinds of evidence that Generation Pictures monopolizes the market, everyone really believes that Generation Pictures is suspected of monopolizing the market.
"Oppose monopoly and resolutely resist Generation Pictures!"
"Generation Pictures get out of Shancheng Film and Television Industry!"
"I hope that the relevant departments will inspect Generation Pictures, and a good market environment requires multiple companies to compete and develop together."
"Generation Pictures actually wants to monopolize the market, and I will never watch their company's movies again!"
For a while, the "crowd was excited", and the rumors on the Internet became more and more exaggerated, and some people even said that Generation Pictures wanted to control the entire empire's mind through the power of culture, in order to achieve some ulterior goals.
The online rhetoric is almost one-sided against Generation Pictures, which is very abnormal.
It is clear that someone is deliberately directing public opinion.
Some netizens wanted to defend Generation Pictures, but found that what they had just sent was quickly deleted, as long as they said that they supported Li Rui, these messages were deleted without exception.
Some people realized that this was a conspiracy against Generation Pictures, and it was impossible for Li Rui not to know.
Zhang Aiyuan hurried to report the matter to Li Rui, hoping to find a solution to the problem from him.
"Li Rui, when is it, you still have the heart to sleep, what do you think about this matter?"
Li Rui rubbed it, and it was a little swollen
's head, looked up at Zhang Ehime, and said lazily, "The sky is not falling again, what are you afraid of? Someone must be behind this, and what we can do is not how to fight back, but wait!"
"Wait?" Zhang Aiyuan was puzzled, "What are you waiting for? If we wait any longer, I'm afraid the situation will be even worse for us."
"At this time, we can only wait, if we fight back, won't it be true that we are indeed monopolizing the market? Is this an attempt to cover up and give people a handle? So now we can't do anything but wait and see."
"But I don't understand, what are we waiting for?"
"Wait for public opinion to move closer to us."
Zhang Aiyuan shook her head helplessly and said, "Li Rui, this is easier said than done, public opinion has fallen over there, we are now at a loss for words, we have collectively denounced us on the Internet, and the whole situation cannot be reversed so quickly."
Li Rui smiled and said, "What are you worried about? No matter who makes the move, we just have to catch it!"
"But ......"
Li Rui raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, this matter is a basket that they poked, and the things on the Internet have been spread, and it is impossible for no one to know about it. We're waiting, and there's people up there. You see the attitude at the bottom?"
"Upper?" Zhang Aiyuan frowned and asked, "What do you mean......
