Chapter 328 is an ace drama!
"Wow, that's a great story!"
The first episode was finally watched, and after the subtitles appeared, everyone woke up like a dream. The conference room also quickly burst into applause.
"It's very good, the pacing is very good, and the actors are acting very well. The suspense set up at the end is also very captivating - this is sure to be a very good episode! ”
"The director did a good job, and the colors are very retro, which is really attractive."
"The heroine's personality is cool, and the direction of the story is also very attractive, this should be a coming-of-age storyline, right?"
"I call it an 'upgraded cool drama.'"
"The special effects board is also very cool, this setting is very attractive, and I think users will definitely like this setting too."
After watching the movie, there was a lively discussion in the conference room, and there were many people who asked questions to Li Jingkun and director Scott Frank, and they also answered them one by one.
The beginning of this TV series is unexpectedly good-looking, and everyone's feelings are basically quite satisfied, and now the main concern is whether the later parts can maintain the same quality and rhythm as this episode.
Li Jingkun and Scott Frank naturally said that they would definitely complete this work within the specified time, and they would bring it here as soon as possible to show them.
Then Reed Hastings immediately instructed the others: "Then you can start doing propaganda now." You guys get a publicity plan as soon as possible, this will be a very exciting and attractive drama, we must do a good job in publicity, I believe it will be our other ace drama! ”
It's a pity that it can't be made into a series like "Stranger Things", otherwise this series will definitely make more profits and traffic.
But it's okay, there are still two projects with Li Jingkun, an excellent collaborator!
And since he is so powerful and likes their company so much, he will definitely be able to continue to cooperate in the future!
Money is not an issue!
And then it was almost here, and then they broke up the meeting and let everyone go out to work and rest.
However, Reed Hastings and the two operating officers stayed with Li Jingkun and the director, and they were going to go to the Netflix café to continue to rest and relax.
As a way to enhance the relationship, you can also talk about other things by the way.
"To be honest, I'm really satisfied with today's content and surprised, you guys did a very good job!"
After arriving at the café, many employees here were already chatting and working here, and they also greeted them a little when they came, and then many people looked at Li Jingkun and Scott Frank curiously, after all, these two are strange faces here.
But what is certain is that these two are definitely bigwig-level figures, otherwise it would be impossible to let the three Netflix bigwigs accompany them!
After a few people sat down, each ordered a cup of coffee, and then the founder reaffirmed their achievements, saying that it would be a pleasure to work with them.
Li Jingkun and the director are also very happy, and if things go well, of course everyone is happy.
Later, they also talked about the projects of "Dark Glory" and "Money House", and Li Jingkun told them about the progress, and both TV series can be started after the year.
Then Li Jingkun took the initiative to mention Netflix's project in Bangziguo, and now they have determined that the TV series project over there is hitting the street, but the movie project is okay. At present, we are summing up our experience and looking for a new way out, and we are also starting to work on new episodes.
Li Jingkun said: "The film and television industry in Bangziguo is still very good, and their love dramas are also very powerful and famous, but it is probably impossible to arouse great popularity and popularity in the world." Because each country has a different view of love, and the rhythm is also different.
Someone once said that if the plot of one of their TV series is placed in the Omi series, it will basically be finished in one episode. The men and women over there talk about a relationship, and they are still going around and around after dozens of episodes, misunderstanding each other or something, in the Omi TV series, maybe the hero and heroine rolled the sheets in the first episode. ”
"Hahaha."
Li Jingkun said it very interestingly, and everyone also resonated, so they all laughed.
However, Li Jingkun didn't laugh, he continued: "So it's not good to shoot the subject they were originally good at, so you have to change to other themes." ”
Greg Peters said: "Thriller, curiosity, excitement, coolness and so on? ”
"Yes, of course, it's this genre that is more interesting to everyone."
Reid Hastings nodded: "Actually, of course we know this, and now the question is, can they shoot something like this over there?" And then after shooting it with the face of an Oriental, can it arouse everyone's love? ”
Li Jingkun said: "Isn't the "Money House" that we are preparing and producing now just this type? We'll know the results soon! ”
Reed Hastings, of course, knew this, so they nodded again.
"So you're interested in something from the Stick Country?"
"Yes, I'm very interested in their entertainment industry and talent, as well as the social environment, so I'm going to focus on it there. In fact, I have worked with them a few years ago, and this year too, I am already working on another film project. ”
Reed Hastings looked at the two product officers for a moment, and then he said to Li Jingkun: "I remember you bought a lot of Netflix shares?" ”
"Ha, yes. I have a lot of confidence in your company, and your performance in recent years has been very good, and your stock price has risen very fast, isn't it? Otherwise, why would I choose to work with you? ”
Reed Hastings laughed, "yes, so I'm wondering if we can deepen our collaboration a little more?" ”
"For example?"
"For example, we can jointly develop the project on the stick country side, didn't you say it before? I like our company's global platform, if there is a good project, whether it is a movie or a TV series, it must be placed on our side to give full play to their full power, right?
For example, if you want to increase the number of shares on Netflix, we can help you do that too. ”
They finally started talking about this topic, and Li Jingkun was very happy.
Hehe, isn't that what he's been waiting for?
······
Netflix Cattle Batch? Of course, it's very good.
But they are not the only streaming media platform on the side of the United States.
The United States is also the same as Huaxia China, and there are many online video platforms in China, such as Aiqiyi, Penguin Video, Kuku.com, etc., while Omi's is global-oriented, and the competition will only be greater.
For example, Prime Video, Showtime, HULU, Disney+, CBS All Access, etc., the list is much longer, and many platforms are comparable in size and market value to Netflix; has always been each other's biggest competitors -
With so much money in the user's pocket and so much time, if they order this platform, they generally can't order another one.
This is also the reason why in the original time and space, Netflix spent a lot of money to buy the online broadcast rights of "Knives Out"; Because the competition is also very big, if they don't give full play to their strengths and don't spend a lot of money to collect more good projects, what if the users run away?
So back to the original question, why did Li Jingkun choose to cooperate with Netflix before?
In fact, it is mainly because he knows that they have a lot of popular models in the original time and space in the next few years, which is more suitable for him to contact and enter the game.
But Netflix doesn't know here, they, like other entertainment companies, are constantly looking for good talents, good projects, good development paths, and so on. And it's not that they haven't failed, in fact, they often hit the streets along the way.
It's just that it has been successful in the long run, but there have been a lot of hardships and hardships.
And now there is actually a good talent and opportunity in front of them - that is Li Jingkun.
The previous successful experience made them believe in him very much, so they cooperated with him on three projects in one go.
Later, I found out that he also had a good relationship with Shimen and Disni, and they both had a deep cooperative relationship; Proof of his strength is certified by many companies.
Now that "Rear Wing Abandonment" has also come out, the quality is surprisingly good, so they have to consider binding him further - there are too many powerful film and television companies in Omi!
Li Jingkun can find others to cooperate with at any time!
If they hadn't done it sooner, who knows which big company he would have worked with in a while?
So now that Li Jingkun has a good relationship with them and is also very interested in Netflix, he can naturally start from this side - isn't it just spending money, what they don't lack is actually money.
If you can spend money to bind a huge resource library, anyone will be willing to pay for it.
It's the same as Haiyu Film and Television sold her shares at a low price in order to bind Zhao Xiaodao and don't let her run away. It's all too common. In order to retain management talents, large companies will also give a certain amount of shares to senior talents such as CEOs and COOs at low prices.
Of course, Li Jingkun can spend his own money to buy a little more Netflix shares, but this is more expensive, and secondly, retail investors have a critical point, if it exceeds a certain number, it is found that someone seems to want to buy their company's shares hostilously, the shareholders of the board of directors will definitely take action.
Li Jingkun didn't come to cause trouble, so he naturally followed the normal process to try his best to achieve his goal.
So far, it seems that the effect is still good.
······
With the passage of time, the popularity of Liu Tianxian's music albums continues to increase. At present, there are several songs that are on the hot song lists of many platforms. The top 10 alone was shortlisted for several songs, such as "Countdown", "Like a Fish", "Birds and Cicadas" and "It's You" and so on.
And it's not just so popular on the music platform, many songs are the same as "The Sea of Stars", which are also very popular on the short video platform, and there are many people who use them.
The popularity of the album made Liu Tianxian's fame soar again, and the exposure rate was extremely high.
In addition, she was just praised by the official a while ago, and there have been a lot of recent commercial performances, and some advertising endorsements that have not been cooperated with before are also in contact with her.
After all, the official certification means that there will be no real black material before her, and the probability of thunderstorms is relatively low;
The explosion of music indicates that there will still be strong exposure and appeal in the future, not to mention that there are several big productions waiting for her behind her, so maybe it will be the cheapest time to find her now!
It's just that Liu Tianxian can't accept everything, such as variety shows, but the invitations to the Spring Festival Gala of several TV stations are under consideration.
There are a lot of good works now, don't worry about having to sing "Decent" again, now it's better to worry about which songs to sing······
······
Li Jingkun did not return to China after leaving the United States, but went directly to the country of sticks.
This time, there are a lot of things, one is to follow up on the preparations for "Extreme Escape", and the other sometimes has to meet with a few clothing brands with people from the company to talk about the advertising placement of "Dark Glory".
The last one is also more important, he has already "joined" Netflix for a while, and will first act as one of the heads of the Bangziguo studio, temporarily a position of deputy general manager, with salary and dividends.
At the same time, the head office will continue to let Li Jingkun increase the number of shares he has in the company. But of course, he still needs to spend money to buy these shares, and the price is actually not low.
At this stage, he thinks that it is almost enough to get Netflix shares with a market value of about 100 million meters, and he will consider applying to increase his holdings again after the success of projects such as "Rear Wing Abandonment". I believe that in order to keep him, his intention to increase his holdings will be smoother at that time.
In fact, if it is simply to buy stocks to make money, there are many companies in the market that will rise sharply in the next few years, in fact, not to mention, many stocks such as medical, biological, and pharmaceutical will rise wildly in the future, as long as he buys some separately, he can make a lot of wealth.
But for him, who is not worried about money at present, there is no point in simply making money, and there are of course many reasons why he intends to become one of the minority shareholders of Netflix.
In addition to making the same money, he can also get and make those products that will hit in the future more legitimately.
The second reason is that he has become a minority shareholder of the streaming media platform, and he can also feed back to Longqi Film and Television Company later, so that its walls will be stronger and its blood volume will be stronger, so that the stock will not fall too seriously when the film and television industry is in a downturn.
In addition to working in the country of sticks, he also meets some friends in the country of sticks from time to time, such as Kimbella and Lin Yun'er and so on.
Lin Yuna was very grateful to him for suddenly giving her a heroine project before, saying that it was a very pleasant surprise.
It just so happened that he was working here for a while, so I invited him out to dinner and thanked him.
The concert of the thigh era has long ended, and as early as more than a month ago, their company announced that the three members will not renew their contracts, and there are only 5 members left in their organization.
However, the company has not disbanded to promote the thigh era, and the remaining 5 people will continue to carry out activities in the name of "thigh era", but how can the combination of 5 people become the thigh era?
This is simply covering up and stealing the bell, not only do others look like the four, but their own fans don't accept it either, so now it's a fact that their combination is greatly reduced in popularity and morale.
In addition, at the age of twenty-eight or nineteen, they are no longer competitive in the girl group, so most of them have to transform as much as possible in the future, and try to change to the identity of actors.
And at this time, Lin Yuner received the project of a movie heroine non-stop, and she was naturally very happy, and naturally felt a little more relieved than the other members.
·······
Li Jingkun stayed in the stick country for a while, and after handling everything almost well, he returned to Kyoto, ready to follow up on the work in China.
However, Bangziguo will definitely pass over often in recent years, because now he is one of the heads of Netflix over there, and he has to go to work from time to time.
At this time, Netflix has invested in a new project here, called "Kingdom".
Although this drama that will explode in the future is not from him, it does not prevent Li Jingkun from continuing to be one of the people in charge, and he occasionally has to follow up on the project of "Kingdom" - it is just his responsibility.
"Wow, the big star is back!"
Liu Tianxian is busier than Li Jingkun these days, and sometimes he will travel for several days before coming back.
This time, she received some commercial performances, a few advertisements, and 3 invitations to the Spring Festival Gala.
Yes, there are 3 of them in the whole!
However, only Mango Satellite TV is live, and the other two are not; At that time, the last two only need to go and record in advance.
"Awesome, then I can see you on three platforms at the same time during the Chinese New Year!"
"Haha, of course! Don't look at who I am! ”
The two haven't seen each other for a while this time, so it's too tired to meet now. At this time, they are holding each other and talking.
Liu Tianxian said with a smile: "And you can sing different songs in 3 places, I didn't know what song to choose before, but now I don't have to worry about it, I can sing several songs at the same time!" Hahaha! ”
"Doesn't that mean you have to practice several songs at the same time?"
"Yes······ But it's okay, I've practiced these songs very well this year, and the two places are in recording mode, which is not difficult. ”
"Well, what song did you choose?"
"The Sea of Stars", "Countdown", "Like a Fish", "Birds and Cicadas", "It's You" and so on. It's good, well-rounded, haha. ”
"Then you've been getting rich lately, how much money have you made?"
"No, there are so many zeros! I won't tell you how much, lest you be jealous! ”
Liu Tianxian's income in the past year is indeed not bad.
Although there were not many works in 17 years, a "Wolf Warrior 2" made her extremely exposed.
She didn't participate in any variety shows, but she received a lot of advertising endorsements, plus she participated in a lot of commercial performances over the years, singing "Decent" or something.
Now is the era of high salaries for artists, and she is one of the two or three most popular actresses, so she still has 100 million soft girls in 17 years; In 2017, he got more than a dozen positions on the star income list.
Of course, the media also added one more sentence when talking about Liu Tianxian, which is ranked without counting Longqi Film and Television stocks, if you count stock income. Liu Tianxian will definitely be a well-deserved first!
Because of the asset income of stocks alone, she has made hundreds of millions, so which star can compare?
And if you count the stock income, Mao Xiaotong and Gu Xiaona and others are also ranked first. But if you only count the income from their work, they don't have ······
However, it is already the beginning of 18 years, and if you don't count stocks this year, Liu Tianxian is estimated to book the top ten positions in advance, because a music record has already brought her a good start.
She is very busy these days and makes a lot of money; In addition, she still has two works to shoot today, and the total income by the end of the year will definitely be an astonishing amount.
"Huh."
Liu Tianxian's smug expression was so funny and cute, Li Jingkun couldn't help but start to use his mouth.
And he was especially fond of gnawing on her face and chin, and gnawing on her face was because it was beautiful, and he wanted to possess it; Of course, there is a reason why the chin is beautiful, and it is also because it is very meaty and delicious.
"Yikes! So much saliva! ”
Liu Tianxian didn't refuse his affection and weirdness, but after a while, she still pretended to be disgusted and buried her face in his arms, wiped it indiscriminately, and wiped her face and chin clean.
