"Report to the boss, three self-made dramas were put on the shelves at zero hour, with 3.5 million free first episodes played, and 2.1 million follow-up VIP users, including 450,000 in Hong Kong City. "The Walking Dead" ranks first in the retention rate, and "Heavenly Master Ma Xiaoling in New York" ranks second."

At eight o'clock in the morning on the 9th, Chen Dong, as the director of the president's office, stood in the villa restaurant on Heland Road in Repulse Bay, Gangcheng, reporting the results of the first day of AHL video website.

"yes, I see."

After listening to the report, Wang Yongren, who had eaten breakfast, felt that the debut of overseas videos was not bad.

After all, the video website has been online for a short time, and although there are many channels for publicity, there are not enough users in the early stage.

But judging from the 6% of paying users and $10 million in membership fee revenue, it is definitely a very good achievement.

Well, the membership fee here in the port city is the cheapest, at 9.9 Hong Kong dollars, while Europe, the United States, cherry blossom countries and other places range from 9 US dollars to 5 US dollars, which are differentiated according to the income level of different regions.

For many ordinary users, they would rather spend money to buy coffee for dozens of yuan, rather than spend half of the money to open a membership, and finally ask others to borrow a member account.

"Today, your itinerary is."

Just as Chen Dong continued to report today's itinerary, there was a sound of footsteps from the stairs, and several founders of Zhilan Fragrance Studio walked down, and the mature beauties in silk pajamas made people feel a little moved.

didn't disturb the work of the handsome guy and lover, Ling Zhiling and the others ate breakfast quietly.

It wasn't until the plump and beautiful Secretary Chen finished reporting that Ling Zhiling asked, "Brother Yongren, how is the broadcast volume of the TV series "Heavenly Master"? ”

As the first webcast TV series provided by their studio, it is related to the future development direction of the studio, so naturally she can't help but care.

You must know that in order to meet the production needs of the AHL video website, they have incorporated a number of 'out-of-fashion artists' in Hong Kong City, specializing in filming online exclusive TV series that cannot be broadcast on TV stations, referred to as 'online dramas'.

For the ten episodes of the first season of "Heavenly Master", the production cost of their studio is about 10 million, and AHL's remuneration is 15 million.

If the response is good, the second season will start filming immediately, and more bonuses will be awarded based on the increase in video views and the number of new members attracted.

"The first episode has 950,000 views, and the follow-up number of payers is 650,000, so you can prepare to start filming the second season. Also, think about something else."

Speaking of this data, Wang Yongren, who finished breakfast, hugged the first beauty in Taiwan Island Province into his arms.

According to his plan, this beauty from Taiwan Island Province will turn into a behind-the-scenes boss, not to take on those strange roles, and occasionally take on a few vase roles with a good reputation.

"Well, I'll try to push those screenwriters as much as possible."

After listening to the other party's words, Ling Zhiling nodded and changed her position, so that the other party's hands were not so tired.

"I'll say hello to the children of several big families in Hong Kong City when I go back, if you have any questions, you can contact them at any time."

In order to repay the affection of the first beauty in Taiwan Island Province and the two beauties in the Lion City, Wang Yongren also really considered each other.

"Thank you."

Fan Fangwen, who is more introverted and intellectual in appearance, naturally pulled up her hair when she squatted down to pick up something under the dining table.

After staying in the hotel until nearly ten o'clock, Wang Yongren set off to make an appointment with the local rich second generation.

"Li Shao, Chen Shao, long time no see."

Coming to a certain yacht docked at the port, Wang Yongren, who was the owner, smiled and shook hands with the two wealthy men on the boat to greet him.

For the sake of safety, Wang Yongren, who took the initiative to meet with Wang Yongren, the son of two top wealthy families in Hong Kong City, asked HSBC's manager Xu to arrange a yacht and invite each other to a banquet, focusing on caution.

"Mr. Wang, thank you for your hospitality today."

Li Yaoming, who had seen two sides, responded with a chuckle.

As the young master of the top wealthy family in Hong Kong City, it is the first time that he has been entertained by outsiders in this Hong Kong City, but Li Yaoming feels that the other party has such qualifications.

"Brother Wang, your lunch is a little too vegetarian."

Looking left and right, Chen Huaqian, who is also a child of the four major families in Hong Kong City, joked with a smile.

"There are too many warblers and swallows, and it's not suitable for us to talk about things. I have prepared a few bottles of '82-year-old Lafite and '89-year-old Rouge and asked them to help me taste them. ”

For the two sons of wealthy families in Hong Kong, Wang Yongren's attitude is very peaceful, and he has no intention of pleasing at all.

As for the red wine, it was all given to him by her confidante Annabelle, which was a return gift of hundreds of millions to the other party during his trip to New York.

"You have to try it, the red wines on the market are too foolish."

Feeling the other party's posture of not being high or low, Chen Huaqian didn't care, and walked into the cabin with the other party with a smile.

The three of them sat down, the yacht started slowly, cruising in the offshore, which can be regarded as the style of chatting with the children of the wealthy families in Hong Kong City.

“. The AHL video website launched three self-made dramas in the early hours of this morning, and by 10 o'clock today, there were 2.3 million paying users. Subsequently, the website will increase investment in self-made dramas, and Gangcheng is one of the film and television production bases, and the annual cost will be more than 100 million US dollars. Even if it is the Southern Dynasties and North America, the total annual investment is not less than 500 million US dollars, and the current initial 300 million US dollars can only support 3 months. ”

Speaking of the development of AHL website, Wang Yongren calmly introduced the current development status.

Before, there were still people waiting to see the prospects of overseas video websites, but Wang Yongren used real data to show the demand of young users for high-quality videos.

It is true that many people are reluctant to spend money to open a membership, but with the money of a cup of coffee, many young viewers will still buy it for a month.

In the tide of global economic recovery, the real estate and entertainment industries are at the forefront of the tide.

In order to maintain the user's sense of anticipation, AHL will invest a lot of costs in the early stage to buy a batch of self-made dramas.

Coupled with the cost of website construction and operation, the initial $300 million may only be enough to support three months, and then it will stabilize, with the income from advertising fees and membership fees, it will gradually offset the cost of operation.

As a huge traffic entrance, AHL video website will definitely become the object of capital and major Internet giants in the future, and the losses on the books can be made up from different places.

But this is a long process, during which the demand for funds is relatively large, and Wang Yongren is already screening suitable investors for the first subsequent financing.

And the joining of the two Hong Kong giants can be regarded as ensuring half of the rear, and also preparing for his future plans.

"It's really a good industry, but Brother Wang asked us to take shares, except for increasing the resources of the port city, it doesn't seem to be beneficial."

After listening to the other party's introduction, Li Yaoming, who was quite moved, asked with a smile.

For rich children like them who don't worry about money, whether a project makes money or not is not the most important thing, and more attention is paid to the follow-up development and influence contained in it.

It's just that among the original shareholders of AHL website, there is already international capital, and its influence in Hong Kong City is not small, plus the debut of the self-made drama has achieved good results, and there will be more capital to send money in the future.

He felt that the other party must have other purposes for wooing him.

There is no love and hate in the world for no reason, and Li Yaoming feels that the relationship with the other party is not so good that the other party takes the initiative to pull him into the game.

"I'm going to take control of the Academy Awards."

Faced with this expected problem, Wang Yongren also expressed his reasons.

For the Hong Kong City Academy Awards, which he cherishes and spits on himself, he has long been unhappy.

Of course, he won't really spend a lot of money on the layout because of this, but only by breaking the original circle in the Hong Kong entertainment industry can it radiate new vitality and make more film and television dramas to supply video websites.

"I think the entertainment industry in Hong Kong City is too old, and it really needs a new helmsman."

For this reason, Chen Huaqian smiled and raised his glass in agreement.

Chen Huaqian felt that this young rich man with a foothold in the global financial circle would be of benefit to the Chen family, especially for him.

"I agree."

Also raising a toast, Li Yaoming smiled and congratulated the future king of the film and television industry in Hong Kong City.

At the same time, Lao Wang, Lao Liu, and Lao Liang, several directors of Hong Kong City who had gone to the mainland earlier for development, also gathered together, looking at Lao Chen on the main seat.

"Lao Chen, you invite a few of us to come over, say anything directly, don't play dumb riddles."

Lao Wang, who is arrogant by nature, was famous for making literary films in his early years, and now he is also mainly making comedy films, earning eight figures every year, and his life is very comfortable.

"Have you heard of the AHL video website that has just been launched?"

Looking around at several colleagues and old friends present, Lao Chen opened his mouth to ask.

"I've heard it, it seems that there has been a lot of uproar recently. Before this video site was launched, it signed an agreement with many old guys who were unlucky and made a three-year plan for 100 Hong Kong films. By the way, it seems that the first TV series has been launched today, and it is still starring Xiao Wan. ”

Listening to the other party's question, Lao Liu replied casually, his eyes vaguely looking at Lao Chen on the main seat for a moment.

"100 Hong Kong films in three years? What a big breath, what is the other party's origin? ”

Lao Liang, who had been filming in the mainland before, heard about this website for the first time, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, feeling that the other party's ambition was a bit big.

"The website has Wall Street capital, a deep background, and is launched around the world, with an initial investment of $300 million."

Speaking of this, Lao Chen paused, took a sip of tea and continued: "The person in charge of the other party contacted me and wanted me to shoot a drama, which was completed within a budget of 20 million, and all I saved was the profit of the crew, and I was paid another 10 points." I heard that you can also get corresponding bonuses according to the number of clicks in the future. I thought it was good, so I agreed, and it can be regarded as adding some jobs for the members of our local thirteen lines. ”

After stating the situation he had promised before, Lao Chen did not ask a few people, but drank tea by himself.

There are some things that don't need to be said too clearly.

Although these top-level directors are thriving in the mainland, they actually have no collateral benefits for the local low-level members of the Thirteen Lines, at most more than a dozen people who are close to their own teams.

And how many practitioners are in the thirteen lines of the port city, at least more than 6,000 people.

If he can start a drama in Hong Kong City and pull down people, he can benefit at least hundreds of people.

"Lao Chen said so, and I can't be left behind. I'll contact AHL Video to see if there's a need over there, and I can bring some old brothers with me in the opening drama. ”

As soon as he heard Lao Chen's words, Lao Liu immediately followed, full of righteousness.

"That's okay, I'm in touch with the person in charge over there, let's sit down and talk about it later."

Seeing that someone responded, Lao Chen also took the initiative to take the responsibility of the middleman.

"Count me in."

Thinking of the implied relationship, the lively-minded Lao Wang also raised his hand in agreement.

Soon, the eight middle- and upper-level directors present nodded in agreement, forming a small circle.

Wang Yongren, who had a good chat with the two children of the wealthy families in Hong Kong City, went to the Aocheng next door with the two, and everyone parted ways after entering the hotel.

"Boss, Director Chen's side has already done it."

Wang Yongren, who had just walked into the elevator, heard Secretary Chen's report.

"Hmm."

Hearing the news, Wang Yongren nodded calmly.

With his current status, he has met with the two directors before, and he doesn't need to do it himself, just let the head of AHL Video's Hong Kong City branch come forward.

AHL video website announced a three-year plan for 100 Hong Kong films, which is in line with his heart's three-year plan to control the Hong Kong film and television industry, which not only needs the support of low-level practitioners, but also the response of those top-level directors.

What he wants is not an empty shelf in the entertainment industry of Hong Kong City, but a slightly complete framework, equipped with his ideal values and entertainment concept.

As for why Director Chen and Director Liu took the initiative to run for him, it was naturally because of the benefits.

In the entertainment industry, there is nothing that money can't do, and if there is, it's not enough to give.

Just like the two directors, Wang Yongren asked Huaxia Light and Shadow and Nanyue Film and Television to say hello respectively, promising to let them get an investment share in the follow-up films with large investments, and increase the voice of the two directors in the Academy Awards, and the two agreed.

Famous and beneficial, which director can refuse?

And who the Hong Kong entertainment industry will listen to in the future, what does it matter?

"Boss, I'll wait next to you."

When he came to the door of the presidential suite on a certain floor, Chen Dong was going to guard it.

"No, you come in too, so as not to have any temporary business reports."

Thinking of a certain most beautiful foreign college student inside, Wang Yongren did not let Secretary Chen leave, but motioned to the other party to ring the doorbell.

"Long time no see, King."

Neha, who opened the door, smiled and hugged the handsome guy in Huaxia.

Seeing the female secretary of Huaxia follow in, Niha raised her eyebrows, but didn't say anything.

"Sheling is growing very well on our side and has surpassed Herln in terms of users"

Sitting down in the living room, Niha, who was drinking tea, talked about the development of Sheling's India branch in a businesslike manner, which was also the reason why she came to Aocheng.

It's just that, as she spoke, she couldn't hold back her thoughts and went straight up.

After more than half an hour, Neha understood the meaning of the Chinese female secretary staying, although she missed the other party for a long time, she was still a little unable to deal with it.

Late at night, Wang Yongren, who was returning to Hong Kong City from Aocheng, heard a somewhat unexpected news.
