Gu Bei never expected that the person Ye Jing was going to introduce to him today would actually be the big and small king.

It's only 94 years now, are these two brothers starting to have ambitions in the film and television industry?

When was Huayi Brothers founded?

After thinking about it for a long time, Gu Bei couldn't remember it clearly.

In his previous life, he had watched an interview with the king, and in that episode, the two brothers recalled the difficulties in the early days of entrepreneurship.

Wang Zhongjun went to the United States to study before starting his own business, and after returning to China, he set his sights on the domestic advertising industry and decided to start fighting in the business world.

According to Wang Zhongjun, in the early days of the business, the capital was only tens of thousands of US dollars, but he had a good brother who could work with him.

At the beginning, the two brothers just rented a unit in the capital and recruited a few people, so the famous Huayiyi Brothers Company opened in the future, and the company's main business at that time was still advertising.

In the early days of entrepreneurship, the king can be described as a workaholic, working more than 10 hours a day.

In order to get a business, the two brothers were able to drink until their stomachs bleed at the wine table.

Fate does not disappoint those who work hard.

Soon, Huayi Brothers got a good opportunity, and Huayi Brothers, which was established less than a year ago, actually won the corporate image standardization order of 15,000 outlets of Bank of China across the country.

Soon after, the king successively won orders from several large enterprises such as Huaxia Bank, PetroChina, State Power, and Unicom.

Since then, Huayi Brothers has risen rapidly and embarked on the fast track of development, with an annual business volume of 600 million, and it has become one of the top ten advertising companies in China in only three years.

Wang Zhongjun, who has accumulated a lot of money in the advertising industry, is not satisfied.

then set his sights on the film industry, and at that time, Feng Pants had just won the box office championship of the year with "Party A and Party B".

The big and small kings took the initiative to find Feng Pants and wanted to invite him to join the Huayi brothers.

It is said that Feng Pants didn't want to join at first, because he thought that an advertising company could still do a good job in the film and television industry?

To put it bluntly, I just didn't look down on these two guys.

Later, under the temptation of the high salary and stocks given by the king, Feng Pants compromised very backbonely.

With the joining of Feng Pants, it is equivalent to having the rich resources of the mainland film and television circle.

And Feng pants did not live up to the two brothers.

To a certain extent, most of the Huayi Brothers' later achievements in the film and television industry were made by Feng Pants.

According to incomplete statistics, Feng Pants has created a total of 3.2 billion box office for Huayi, accounting for one-third of Huayi's total box office.

Don't think that a movie will be able to harvest more than a billion or billions of box office, Feng Pants' 3.2 billion feels a bit insufficient.

But you must understand that when Feng Pants joined Huayi Brothers, it was still in the 90s of the 20th century, at that time, the domestic film market was in a downturn as a whole, and those who could get more than 100 million box office were Hollywood commercial blockbusters.

If the box office can exceed 10 million, it is already very remarkable.

Feng pants is in this situation, laying a large area for the Huayi brothers.

It also made Huayi Brothers go from obscurity to the peak step by step.

How good were Huayi brothers at their peak?

It has many famous star artists, including Chen Zhiming, Liu Jiajialing, Liang Jiahui, Zhang Guoli, Shuangbing, Deng Zhuo, Huang Jiaozhuo, etc.

At the same time, it has also produced many classic film and television works, such as "The Great Earthquake", "Assembly Number", "Di Renjie" series and other masterpieces.

In addition, Huayi Brothers has also invested in companies in many other fields, further expanding the company's business scope.

Through a series of capital operations, Huayi Brothers ushered in the peak moment in 2015.

At that time, Huayi's market value reached 90 billion, becoming the leader of the mainland film market.

But after entering the peak, Huayi Brothers soon fell into a trough.

Before Gu Bei's rebirth, Huayi had been losing money year after year, with poor performance and heavy debts, and had been tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall.

Huayi Brothers, who once had unlimited glory, why did they embark on the road of losing money year after year?

In Gu Bei's view, the reason why Huayi Brothers fell so quickly was also the common problem of many large domestic enterprises, that is, blind expansion, and hurriedly opened a diversified development path without being ready.

From the perspective of enterprise development, diversification is essential, but after laying a solid foundation.

The risk of diversification mainly comes from the company's own business risk, and if the company's resources are limited, it is naturally difficult to invest sufficient resources into new industries.

The big and small kings are obviously a little floating after Huayi has entered the peak, and he thinks he is invincible in the same industry in China.

So he started blind expansion, and finally dragged the Huayi brothers into the abyss.

Compared with Huayi Brothers, people like Bona and Orange Sky have been focusing on the development of the film and television industry, and before Gu Bei was reborn, they had gradually replaced Huayi's leading position in the film and television industry.

Of course, all of the above is an afterthought, and the current kings are still very "simple".

It's just that Huayi's entry into the film industry should not be in 98?

The first movie he invested in was "Endless", which Gu Bei had just read the script.

It's only been 94 years now, could it be that the course of history has been affected by Gu Bei's little wings again?

"Mr. Gu, I have admired the name for a long time, I am fortunate to meet you today, and our brothers will toast you."

Wang Zhongjun's face is honest and respectful, if Gu Bei is not reborn, it is difficult to believe that he will have such great achievements in the future.

"You're welcome, you are friends of Lao Ye, since you met today, you will be buddies in the future."

Ye Jing's face, Gu Bei must give it, this buddy has helped him a lot, today he specially brought the big and small kings to worship the dock, even if it is a competitor in the future, but at this wine table, Gu Bei must give enough face.

The big and small kings are obviously very satisfied with Gu Bei's attitude, and the two brothers are all scene people, especially Xiao Wang, who is even more exquisite.

Facing Gu Bei is a rainbow fart.

Good words are really comfortable to listen to.

Probably Wang Shuo felt like this at the beginning!

"Xiao Gu, bring them over today, mainly because Zhongjun also got a company, I want to expand my business recently, and I am very interested in the domestic film market, you are the predecessor of this industry, if you are not troublesome, help and bring them, the two brothers in the province are like headless flies, bumping around."

Speaking of which, Gu Bei naturally couldn't refuse, he owed Ye Jing a lot of favors, and he had never had the opportunity to repay it before, so it was rare to "beg" him today.

"Lao Ye, you spoke, I definitely can't push, but...... This line of work is not easy to do, although it has been liberalized a little now, and there is also a determination to rectify it, but there are still a lot of restrictions. ”

Xiao Wang hurriedly said: "Mr. Gu, you can tell me." ”

Gu Bei nodded with a smile, and then introduced the current policy to the big and small kings.

In other words, even if there is money, private enterprises cannot invest independently now? It must be co-produced with a state-owned film studio, and even if it is filmed, it does not enjoy copyright. ”

"That's what it means."

I didn't even understand the policy issues, so I wanted to enter the market?

These two guys really have big hearts.

"That's why I said, this industry is not easy to do, it's different from the advertising industry you are doing now, there are too many rules and regulations, there are stuck necks everywhere, and there are people who follow and add chaos."

Then Gu Bei counted "Party A and Party B" from the release to the final box office results, including the way of sharing, and told the king again.

"Do you want to get it so much? Can it still be profitable in the end? ”

After listening to Xiao Wang's words, Gu Bei smiled: "Don't think about making money just after you get out, I'm just trying to make a name and make a profit now, and I have to see the policy changes in the future." ”

Hearing this, the king hurriedly said, "Mr. Gu, what are you ...... Got the inside scoop? ”

Gu Bei waved his hand: "Where am I an immortal, even if there is inside information, it can't reach my ears, I think...... Since the above has relaxed the restrictions on private enterprises investing in the film and television industry, we must make it profitable, if it has been like now, we need our money to develop the domestic film and television industry, and all kinds of restrictions, treat us as the wronged leader, for a long time, who is still willing to play, change is a matter of time, we have to leave investors who are willing to pay money to support domestic films, now it depends on who can persevere. ”

In the past year, there have been a lot of private film and television companies, but the one that can persist is Mingqian Pictures.

Hearing Gu Bei's words, the big and small kings glanced at each other.

The reason why they want to enter the film and television industry is because they saw the hot scene after the release of "Party A and Party B", and their hearts are also hot.

Knowing that Ye Jing and Gu Bei had a good relationship, he begged for help in introducing him.

Who would have thought that there would be so much mess in this.

"Party A and Party B" received a box office of more than 30 million, but it could only protect the capital.

Huayi Brothers can't afford to toss like this, and they have just earned their first pot of gold through the bank's business.

It's good if you can protect the capital, but once you don't see the compensation, the efforts of the previous brothers will all be in vain.

Seeing the reaction of the two brothers, Gu Bei was not surprised, his family background was not thick, and he had to be cautious before making any decisions, after all, not everyone had the absolute advantage of being a reborn like Gu Bei.

"That's probably the case, you guys...... Be careful, the water is quite deep. ”

Wang Zhongjun frowned and thought about it, in the advertising industry, the two brothers have opened up the situation and already have a lot of funds in their hands, so they want to develop in a new field, but taking care of Bei said so, the film industry is really not easy to enter!

First of all, who do they work with?

What Gu Bei just said is very clear, private enterprises investing in films must cooperate with state-owned film studios, although they have some connections, but they don't know many people in this field.

Ye Jing may be able to help, but ......

Wang Zhongjun was thinking about it, when he felt Wang Zhonglei next to him touch him under the table, and then handed over a look.

The tacit understanding between the brothers made Wang Zhongjun clear in an instant.
