Chapter 567 Impact on US stocks!

Seeing that Liu Yifei remained silent, Li Mingyang thought she really didn't want to eat, so he pushed open the door of the phone booth and threw the food into the trash can next to it.

He reached into his empty pockets again, pulled out a bag of wet wipes and wiped his hands.

Snapped!
"Your pocket Doraemon! I've taken out so many things, but it's not bulging at all. How come there are so many things in it?" Liu Yifei patted Li Mingyang's thigh and said curiously.

"I just bought it at the convenience store. Do you want to use it?" Li Mingyang instantly found a reasonable excuse and handed the wet wipes to Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei took the wet tissue and wiped the ice cream off her lips, folded the tissue, and wiped the lipstick off her lips.

The photo shoot is almost done.

Li Mingyang sent Liu Yifei back to Shilla Hotel.

When they parted, Li Mingyang left very decisively.

Because he was too decisive, Liu Yifei's good mood disappeared in an instant, and she stared at Li Mingyang's back for a long time.

"It's okay, it's okay, I've made a lot of progress today... You stingy guy, drink some cold water!" Liu Yifei shook her long hair and strode towards the gate of Shilla Hotel.

As she walked, Liu Yifei was so happy that she jumped up!
When I get my agency contract back, I won't have to be a puppet anymore, I will be my own boss.

"Aunt Xia knows Li Mingyang well. He does hold a grudge, but as long as you spend time pestering him, annoying him, and annoy him to death, he will compromise in order not to be annoyed."

Liu Yifei jumped and danced happily and returned to the suite, grinning foolishly. Liu Xiaoli was so scared that she thought Liu Yifei was possessed by evil spirits.

Liu Yifei was grinning foolishly.

On the other side, Li Mingyang received a call from Li Xiucheng and took a taxi to Gimpo International Airport.

1942 came back to life, and Li Mingyang couldn't sleep at night, so he asked Li Xiucheng to go to Dongda to inquire about the news and find out whether 1942 was going to Cannes!

When Li Mingyang saw Li Xiucheng, he was stunned and almost didn't recognize him.

"Oh my god, I almost didn't recognize you with this new look."

Li Xiucheng took off his silver-rimmed glasses, touched his crew cut, and said with a smile: "The best disguise is to change my hairstyle and wear glasses. I have had a middle part for many years, but now it has become a crew cut."

Li Mingyang nodded, followed Li Xiucheng to the parking lot, and got into a Hyundai sedan.

"Did you find out anything after you went to Dongda?" Li Mingyang asked while sitting in the passenger seat.

"Let's talk about it when we get back..."

"Bad news, or good news."

"All."

Li Mingyang's mood suddenly turned bad.

More than half an hour later, the Hyundai sedan stopped at the parking lot of Huashu Technology. Then Li Mingyang and Li Xiucheng crossed two alleys and came to the office of Huashu Brokerage.

"Boss, would you like coffee or tea?"

"I don't want to drink anymore. Hurry up and tell me."

After Li Xiucheng sat down, he scratched his head and said, "Boss, I disguised myself as you said, pretending to be a wealthy businessman who returned from overseas and was interested in film and television, and I got in touch with quite a few people in the Beijing circle."

"and then."

"Boss, your reputation at Dongda...tsk tsk, it's really bad! As soon as I mention your name, many people will make up stories about you..."

"If you are not envied by others, you are a mediocre person. Have you ever met Wang Dajun?"

"No……"

"Then why are you back!"

"I have come into contact with Wanda's top management."

Li Xiucheng told about his contact with Wanda, and he actually hooked up with Wanda Xiao Wang.

Wanda Xiao Wang is very interested in Korean nightclubs, medical beauty, girl groups and games.

The two sides hit it off immediately and have reached the point where they are on friendly terms with each other.

It was also from Wanda Xiao Wang that Li Xiucheng learned many secret things.

He was forced to leave the country and develop overseas, and Wanda helped a lot!

The reason is still the ticket subsidy issue.

Ticket subsidies have a particularly big impact on theaters.

The convenience and massive discounts of ticket subsidies have changed the way audiences buy tickets, and Wanda has had to follow up on the ticket subsidy data and schedule screenings.

In order to regain the right to speak, Wanda, together with other cinema chains, put pressure on China Film and drove it out first.

Then make the final adjustment on the tickets.

"It seems that the cinema chains have the final say now..." Li Mingyang murmured.

"Boss, Xiao Wang said that you are cunning and rebellious. You have only one weakness, which is that you are too obsessed with the prize..."

"People always have to pursue something, and I'm not short of money."

"Well... who can complain about having too much money..."

"You've been talking for a long time, what's the bad news?"

"There are many people at Dongda University who want to ride on your popularity and go to Cannes."

"This is normal, a swarm."

"Boss, have you ever thought about this question? What exactly is your position now? No one at the University of Tokyo considers you one of their own..."

Li Mingyang sighed, remained silent for a long time, and asked, "What do you think?"

"I think... once there is controversy, people will always criticize it. Take our girl groups for example. The decline of a girl group is not because of how strong the opponent is, or because they don't work hard enough. It often starts with controversy."

"Is this the bad news you said?"

Li Xiucheng nodded.

Li Mingyang was speechless. He worried for nothing. I thought it was a big deal. I have been controversial since my debut until now!
"I asked you to check whether 1942 is heading to Cannes. You brought back all this nonsense, which is useless!"

Li Xiucheng scratched his head and flattered, "That Feng Xiaogang is no match for you, boss! He is just a boaster. There is no need to take him seriously."

I love to hear that.

"1942 is heading for Cannes, and it seems to be almost finished." Li Xiucheng said casually.

Li Mingyang's heart skipped a beat.

"Is the news reliable?"

"Wanda seems to have invested money as well... Wang Sicong said so."

Damn! Pills!

1942 is really going to Cannes, and it’s almost finished, and Wanda is involved again…

Can't stop it...

Wanda is really powerful now!

BAT all have to step back a bit...even BAT has to look up to Wanda.

With policies in hand, you will be successful in everything!
At his peak, even Oscar was on his knees!

……

Li Mingyang was in a bad mood and was about to go back.

The phone on the table rang. Li Xiucheng answered it, said "hmm" a few times, and hung up.

"Boss, President Zhang asked you to go to her place... President Zhang is really working hard. He eats and lives in the company." Li Xiucheng sighed.

Try your best.

But trying too hard becomes annoying.

The streaming media war will not be decided in a short period of time.

Li Mingyang came to Zhang Wei's office and just as he sat down, Zhang Wei handed him a pile of documents.

"Just say it directly..." Li Mingyang pushed the document aside helplessly.

“The market share of iQiyi and Penguin has surpassed FBTV.”

Li Mingyang raised his eyebrows and quickly flipped through the documents. He was shocked when he saw it.

IQIYI and Penguin are indeed making great efforts, but FBTV is lagging behind. The most fundamental reason is that the War of the Century was postponed three times in a row, causing netizens at home and abroad to complain and feel cheated.

The battle of the century is the reason for success and failure.

Moreover, there has been no progress in Zhen Zhidan's lawsuit.

Zhen Zhidan sued Tan Bing for defamation and demanded compensation for mental damages and economic losses of 500 million yuan.

It is unknown when the fight ended. Li Mingyang asked Uncle Zhou that although Zhen Zhidan's reputation was damaged, it was difficult to determine whether the damage was related to Tan Bing.

Because the matter of Zhao Wenzhuo is in the middle, this is the main contradiction.

As for the judgment that Tan Bing deliberately fabricated facts and maliciously slandered, Zhen Zhidan could not produce conclusive evidence, so the matter would be delayed.

Under the current circumstances, it will take at least two years to get results.

Speechless.

In fact, a defamation lawsuit is the easiest to win. Just find a fault and pursue it relentlessly.

Find some connections and it can be done in two or three months.

But Zhen Zhidan was confused. Tan Bing listed dozens of his "evidences" and he wanted to label all of them as false statements and rumors and demanded that Tan Bing make a public apology.

Li Mingyang felt like two years were missing...

Originally, Li Mingyang hoped that Zhen Zhidan would end the lawsuit as soon as possible so that Zhao Wenzhuo would give up.

Turning back to coerce and bribe Zhao Wenzhuo, the two of them went on stage and fought in a tie, which was good for everyone.

It's not possible at all now.

“Are Penguin and iQiyi climbing too fast? Why do they have so many paying users?”

"Penguin Video and Blade & Soul have launched a joint event. If you subscribe to Penguin Video, you will receive exclusive Blade & Soul costumes." Zhang Wei said.

Sword spirit?

Lying Cao!

How could I forget about this big cream online game!
Blade & Soul can be said to be the last Korean online game that became a phenomenal hit in the country!
In China, she is the spokesperson for Girls’ Generation and her influence is unprecedented!

Sweeping the entire network, breaking the circle crazily!
Less than an hour after Blade & Soul was fully opened, the first batch of 1 open servers were already fully occupied, forcing Penguin to urgently open a batch of additional servers.

On the first day, it exceeded 120 million online users.

Many years have passed, and it is still a promotional and marketing template for Penguin Games.

It has truly achieved widespread publicity.

A lot of new players were tricked in!
Li Mingyang checked online and found out that on June 6, Blade & Soul started its public beta test on the Korean server, and Penguin has already obtained the domestic agency.

"Penguin can understand it, but why is iQiyi also growing so fast?" "There are more than 200 American TV series, and new ones are being released all the time. It's growing faster than Penguin."

All in all, FBTV's exclusive dramas are too monotonous, all of them are ancient costume dramas.

Old Korean dramas, you have them, I have them, everyone has them, there is no advantage.

"What should we do next? Should we wait a little longer?"

"Ah."

"What are you waiting for? Don't you have money? IQIYI's American dramas are not exclusive. You can still buy them now. If you wait any longer, FBTV will have no advantage."

Li Mingyang took off his sunglasses, opened the drawer of the coffee table, took out a pack of cigarettes, tore open the package, took out a cigarette, and lit it. "Huh... Can you calculate how much money Penguin and iQiyi spent?"

Zhang Wei hummed, rummaged around on the table for a while, pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to Li Mingyang.

Li Mingyang took it and looked at it. He was shocked and choked by the smoke. He kept coughing and crying.

Zhang Wei took out a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator, handed it to Li Mingyang, then sat beside him and patted his back.

"Are you speechless..."

Li Mingyang drank two sips of mineral water and cursed: "Ahem, it's only been a few months and they spent more than 3 billion! Report... Report them for transferring assets."

"I tried it, it didn't work."

Damn, double standards!

I transferred 800 million and it was frozen.

You have to make up the money!

These bastards invested more than 3 billion in Korea, and the figure can be clearly calculated. Nothing serious happened!

"If it really doesn't work, talk to Gong Yu?" Zhang Wei suggested.

Li Mingyang recovered and put out the cigarette in the ashtray.

"It has come to this point, there is nothing to talk about..."

Li Mingyang still refused to admit defeat.

"The review committee held a meeting recently, and there were two new members joining... Although it was not stated explicitly, the two new members seemed to be from Penguin and iQiyi. Our advantage is being eaten away bit by bit... If you have a trump card, use it quickly, otherwise it will be too late."

"..."

"Do you want to go public?" Zhang Wei suddenly said.

Li Mingyang looked at Zhang Wei in surprise. He didn't tell anyone...

When Zhang Wei saw Li Mingyang's reaction, she immediately understood that Li Mingyang's trump card was to go public.

"The Korean stock market is different from that in China. Although we have the conditions to be listed in Korea, it is very easy to be maliciously shorted here, and listing on the U.S. stock market does not meet the requirements," said Zhang Wei.

"That's why... I asked you to wait a little longer. We are going to buy U.S. stocks!"

……

Life of Pi is a movie that Li Mingyang likes very much.

The visual effects of this movie were a dimensionality reduction strike in 12, with a lot of clicks!

The magnificent 3D ocean, the glowing whales, the fluorescent forest of the cannibal island, and thousands of flying fish flying across the sea, every frame is like God's palette.

It is magnificent and shocking.

Regarding the Life of Pi, it is a story that seems very magical and amazing at first glance, but it becomes very disgusting once it is deconstructed.

On the surface, Life of Pi is a fantasy film with explosive visual effects.

The story explores the philosophy of human nature, animality, and divinity.

Li An is addicted to deconstruction and made this fantasy blockbuster full of various angles and ways of interpretation.

When he was young, Li Mingyang liked to deconstruct movies, starting with Life of Pi.

I'm too lazy to deconstruct the movie.

This movie is worth visiting just for the special effects!

In terms of storyboarding and conception of special effects, it is even better than Avatar.

A fantasy world is presented using magical and magnificent special effects.

Li Mingyang has been trying to acquire the special effects company of Life of Pi, R&H Rhythm Special Effects!

The company is going bankrupt.

How could such a cool special effect and such a great movie go bankrupt?

The reason is that the labor costs of special effects companies are too high and the profits are too low.

With the innovation of technology and the iteration of software and hardware, the boundaries between games and movies are becoming blurred.

As 2012 begins, most special effects companies in Hollywood are facing bankruptcy!

Digital Domain, once the second largest animation special effects company in Hollywood, has branches all over the world including in Tokyo.

The company has participated in the special effects of more than 7 films, including the well-known "Titanic", "The Fifth Element", "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Transformers", "Iron Man Series", and "Fast and Furious ".

It’s such an awesome special effects company.

It was about to go bankrupt soon, and eventually 3000% of its shares were auctioned off to Yanbei Xiaoma Pentium Group for US$70 million.

Pacific Digital Imaging Studios, a company acquired by DreamWorks, had thousands of employees during its heyday. Its two most successful animation works were Shrek and Penguins of Madagascar. In two years, DreamWorks will disband the company.

Li Mingyang set his sights on rhythm special effects because he was attracted by the company's patents and the world's leading special effects team.

And the soon-to-be-released Life of Pi!

He wants to take advantage of the popularity of Life of Pi and use the shell of Rhythm Special Effects to list on the US stock market!

Rhythm Effects + Pangu cannot be listed on the US stock market.

There is only one pure special effects company in the world that wants to go public.

That is the second largest company, Digital Kingdom, which is listed on the Hong Kong stock market.

Industrial Light & Magic was acquired by Disney and was not listed independently.

A pure special effects company cannot go public. No one is stupid. Just look at the profits and the possibility of bankruptcy at any time. Everyone will shake their heads when they see it.

However, the business model of film company + streaming media + special effects company + artist agency can be easily listed in China, let alone Korea.

The three beauties of Legend of Sword and Fairy, Yang Mi, Shishi, and Liu Yifei, the top 85 beauties!
Sun Li, Li Bingbing, Zhou Xun, Fan Binbin...

Plus himself!

With this lineup, the company is going public on the U.S. stock market. He is so ambitious that he is afraid that others don’t know that he has a good vision, Jack Ma, and he wishes he could be the first to invest!
Sun Li and Deng Chao called each other to seek excitement. When Li Mingyang saw Sun Li in Cannes, he endured it, did not get angry, and did not do anything to Sun Li.

Liu Yifei was treacherous and took advantage of her misfortune, but she was willing to hand over the agency contract. Li Mingyang also tolerated it, pretending to be her boyfriend and even teamed up with her to deceive her mother.

Fan Binbin, this is really shameless! He is now surrounded and attacked, in large part because this damn woman exposed his whereabouts.

This has caused the domestic entertainment industry to focus on Korea.

Damn it, it’s been delayed for a month and it’s not like this now!

But he endured it.

In fact, Miss Fan Binbin can also play the role, and she is willing to play the role. Even Apple has played the role, so what else can't she play?

As long as Li Mingyang nods and takes her to Cannes, Fan Binbin will kneel down to give her the agency contract!

Li Bingbing’s agency contract is locked by Huayi, but her sister Li Xue can have it!

You can be responsible for taking charge of the Americans!

Li Mingyang doesn't want to have too much contact with Deng Wendi, so he can let Li Xue do it!
Zhou Xun is so deceptive...

Because he came to Korea, Dongda Capital invested heavily in Korea two years in advance.

iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video have come directly to Korea!
Li Mingyang realized at that moment that he was doomed!

What does streaming media compete for?
money!
Hard work can bring about miracles! It is not just empty talk!
If you don’t have money, sell it early, otherwise you won’t even have a chance to sell it.

Domestic long video websites are now looking for a father. If they can’t find a father, they will be dead and worthless.

As soon as iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video came into being, he was already thinking about listing on the U.S. stock market.

Berna’s listing on the US stock market was such a disaster!
The domestic box office performance is very good, but the stock price has been steadily falling! Falling! Falling!

Later, it cut off its business and returned to China for listing.

The main reason is that the Americans do not recognize Bernard's box office story...

But Americans recognize streaming media, and streaming media is the story that Americans like to hear.

Because there are YouTube and Netflix already.

Youku is so excited to be the first domestic long-form video website to be listed on the U.S. stock market.

And the stick...

What he wants to do is to create the first Korean long video website to be listed on the US stock market!

What kind of lucrative real estate, what kind of lucrative gray industry...

Damn it!
Listing on the U.S. stock market is the most profitable!
After the merger of Youku and Tudou, the market value reached over 10 billion US dollars!
There is something fishy about Youku...

It’s all thanks to the blood transfusion from my Diaosi Man, Running Man, and Spy Game.

Its innovation is not as good as iQiyi, its film source is not as good as LeTV, and its funding is not as good as Penguin Video.

Even so, Youku has managed to beat NetEase to become the fifth largest company in the Internet industry.

Second only to BAT!

It is an outlier among all the Internet giants, and the only Internet giant that is losing money!

Because the future is bright.

Li Mingyang is very tolerant. He is extremely tolerant.

Especially when Tiantian gave money and Tianxian gave gifts, Li Mingyang could tolerate it even more!

All is ready except for the opportunity!
The only thing missing is the rhythm special effects shell!

As soon as Li Mingyang returned home, he went to the basement. The air-raid shelter blocks signals, but the basement does not.

It’s not like my mom wasn’t of any help at all.

I have been in the United States for so many years and have a group of great lawyers and client partners.

My mom is able to thrive in Shanghai, mainly because of her connections in the US...

He is not in poverty, and his son is so famous. It is a strong combination and his circle is very stable.

The Bouquet Hotel has been upgraded to four stars, and it will probably be five stars next year...
