This man knows how to hype

Chapter 260 Let’s do something original

Two days later.

Backstage at the launch event for "New Mythology: Wukong".

Ji Libo's face was beaming with joy.

From just now till now, the smile on his face has never faded.

Looking at the artists, big directors and a bunch of media who came to support him, he just felt that his life had reached its peak.

Especially when he saw that his brother-in-law Guan Jinfeng, who looked down on him, had to come and support him this time, he felt very comfortable.

Old Guan, Old Guan.

When my “New Mythology: Wukong” becomes a global hit, you will have to humble yourself in front of me from now on.

Then, he thought of his assistant director Tao Mingzhou. This guy actually betrayed him and went to help Xu Xiyu shoot the crappy "The Annual Meeting Can't Stop".

Blind thing.

You will regret it later.

"Director Ji, Director Ji, President Qi is looking for you." Just as he was daydreaming, a man ran over and greeted him.

Hearing this, Ji Libo straightened his clothes and walked towards Qi Xiangyang.

He entered the lounge and just closed the door.

Qi Xiangyang said cheerfully, "Director Ji, you have worked hard for this project for five years. I have built such a big stage for you today, you must cheer up and don't be stage fright."

"Don't worry, Mr. Qi. I will let everyone know today that among the eight major private film and television companies in our domestic entertainment industry, Huaqing's name should be eliminated. Our Donghai is one of the new eight! No, it is one of the new five!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Xiangyang burst into laughter.

He did all these things for this very reason. Disgusting Xu Xiyu was just a side effect. The real purpose was to step on Hua Qing to get to the top.

As for the eight private film and television companies mentioned by Ji Libo, ranked according to comprehensive strength and market value, they are Wanta, Guangying, Taoyu, Tengyu, Huaqing, Bona, Beijing Culture and Huanle Pictures.

Of course, although there is the term "Big Eight", in fact, there are several large film and television companies on the market that are as powerful as the last four companies including Huaqing.

Take Donghai for example. Although it has not yet been listed, it has strong financial resources and is not bad in all aspects.

But even so, in terms of popularity, Donghai is several orders of magnitude behind the Big Eight.

The reason is very simple, because the Big Eight either have a strong background or many years of accumulation, and have produced many good films.

Especially Huaqing, this company has a special status. It is the first listed private film and television company in China, so it is very well-known.

There are even people who don’t know much about people in the entertainment industry who think Hua Qing is the private boss in the industry.

But in fact, if we really talk about it, among the eight major domestic entertainment companies in Blue Star, Huaqing can't even be in the top three, let alone be the boss. The real private boss is Wanda Pictures, and their cinema chain is really too strong.

Huaqing's performance has declined in recent years, and coupled with the fall in stock prices, it is currently ranked fifth among the eight major companies.

That’s why Ji Libo mentioned the “new five” just now, because among the companies ranked behind Huaqing, except for Berna which is a bit better, the market capitalization of the other two is really not good enough.

But the same thing goes, no matter whether it is the fifth or the fourth, Huaqing’s popularity is there. When talking about domestic private film and television companies, the first thing that everyone thinks of is Huaqing.

This is the reputation advantage of being the “first stock”.

It is precisely because of this advantage that Donghai chose Huaqing as the breakthrough point.

The purpose of stepping on Huaqing is to let the market quickly recognize Donghai and at the same time create an anchor point for Donghai's value, which will be beneficial for boosting their stock price after listing.

Thinking of this, Qi Xiangyang happily talked about another thing: "Oh, by the way, has Yu Yuyu arrived?"

"I didn't see it." Ji Libo was stunned.

Qi Xiangyang was also stunned when he heard this, then he looked at his watch and realized that the press conference would start in 10 minutes.

So, he frowned and said, "Call her and ask if she is already sitting in the front court?"

"Oh, okay." Ji Libo quickly took out his mobile phone, found Yu Yuyu's number and called her. However, after the call was connected, the call was hung up.

This left Ji Libo dumbfounded.

What does this mean?
Hang up on me.

Qi Xiangyang's heart sank when he saw this. Damn it, has the big sponsor of "New Mythology: Wukong" suddenly quit?

But then I thought about it again, I had been the one contacting Yu Yuyu these days, and she had always been unhappy with Ji Libo. I could understand why he hung up the phone.

With this thought in mind, Qi Xiangyang took out his mobile phone and called Yu Yuyu.

The phone rang a few times before it was connected, which made Qi Xiangyang feel relieved and secretly happy.

Check it out.

Look at what industry status is?

Ji Libo, Ji Libo, you are such a failure. This investor was originally optimistic about your project, but he didn't even answer your call as a director. I had to personally step in before he gave him face.

Thinking of this, Qi Xiangyang said with a smug smile: "Hey, Xiaoyu, where are you? Now that you are here, why don't you come backstage and chat with me?"

"Mr. Qi, I'm sorry, I may not be able to go."

"?" Qi Xiangyang's eyes widened instantly, and he forced a smile with some disbelief, "What's wrong? What happened? Didn't you say you would definitely come this morning?"

"I'm injured." "Injured? It's not serious, right? Which hospital are you in now? Where are you injured?" Qi Xiangyang quickly pretended to be concerned.

"Heart." Yu Yuyu's tone carried a hint of sadness when she spoke.

"Heart? You hurt your heart!" Qi Xiangyang asked in surprise. Is it so serious?
"It's not my heart that's hurt, it's my heart that's hurt. Mr. Qi, I feel very uncomfortable now, I need to go and heal my wounds... wuwuwu..." Yu Yuyu started crying as she spoke.

She hung up the phone halfway through crying. If she didn't hang up, her fake crying would turn into laughter.

Qi Xiangyang was frozen by her words.

No, what did the fish just say?

Are you sad and want to heal?

I'm healing your mother's wounds!
Do you know what you are talking about?
How can you be so childish when you are so old? Do you think you are a 19 or year old kid? You are already , can you be more mature?

Damn, this is bad.

It seems that I was overconfident and got into trouble.

The fish that was placed on the plate and ready to be steamed seems to have run away?
"Mr. Qi, Yu Yuyu was injured? How serious is it?" Just when Qi Xiangyang was feeling extremely upset, Ji Libo leaned over and asked with some concern.

He was definitely not worried about Yu Yuyu's health.

Instead, they were worried that Yu Yuyu’s injury was too serious and she couldn’t come to play in "New Myth: Wukong".

Of course, if Yu Yuyu only invests and doesn't act, it will be a good thing for her.

After all, she is not pretty enough to be the heroine. Ji Libo even planned to let Yu Yuyu take advantage of her figure and make up for the shortcomings of her face by selling her body.

But if Yu Yuyu can’t act, can she still invest?

Thinking of this, Ji Libo continued: "Boss Qi, her condition is not serious, right? She should still be able to act, right?"

At this time, Qi Xiangyang finally came to his senses.

This time he came to his senses, the look in his eyes when he looked at Ji Libo was strange. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Yu Yuyu said she was hurt by love and needs to go for treatment."

"What the hell?!" Ji Libo screamed upon hearing that.

Isn't it ridiculous that you have to heal after being hurt in love?

However, Qi Xiangyang inexplicably felt that his performance was a bit exaggerated, so exaggerated that it seemed fake.

So, he gritted his teeth and sneered, "Ji Libo, are you and Yu Yuyu teaming up to play me?"

"Mr. Qi, what do you mean? What do you mean by Yu Yuyu and I working together to play you?" Ji Libo was anxious. This was a big misunderstanding.

Seeing this, Qi Xiangyang was about to say something when there was a knock on the door.

Then a voice came through the door: "Mr. Qi, Director Ji, it's almost time, it's time to start."

"Okay, I'll be right there." Before Qi Xiangyang could speak, Ji Libo responded.

He was not a wise man, but he was full of cleverness. He realized in just a moment that Yu Yuyu was probably going to cause trouble.

In this case, there can be no problems with Qi Xiangyang, the financial sponsor.

In other words, this press conference has to be held no matter what. Not only has it to be held, but it has to be hyped up when you get back so that everyone knows about it.

Coincidentally, Xu Xiyu also planned to help Ji Libo promote his products.

However, Ji Libo didn’t know these things at this time.

He said to Qi Xiangyang: "Mr. Qi, you can slowly persuade Yu Yuyu. It's normal for a little girl to be a little emotional.

Once you make your move, with your persuasion, she will be on our table sooner or later. Now there are so many people waiting outside, and there are so many media, the most urgent thing is to hold the press conference. "

When these words came out, Qi Xiangyang's nose almost got crooked with anger.

Half of the media attending the press conference were invited by Ji Libo himself.

I didn’t care about it before. After all, Ji Libo wanted to expand the publicity, which was also a good thing for Donghai.

But now thinking back, this grandson's purpose is worth thinking about.

But now is not the time to think.

What Ji Libo said made sense. Yu Yuyu might not have really changed her mind. She might just be a little emotional.

It is even possible that Xu Xiyu knew that a press conference was going to be held here and deliberately provoked Yu Yuyu, causing her to change her mind at the last minute.

The most urgent task is to get this press conference done.

If it is cancelled at the last minute, it will be difficult to explain internally and externally.

That was when Qi Xiangyang was thinking.

Xu Xiyu updated a post on Weibo, the subject of which was a video.

The post reads: "I heard that Donghai Media and director @Ji Libo have reached a new film cooperation and are holding a press conference. To express congratulations, I would like to send you a film promotion song "White Dragon Horse".

By the way, if you want something from Huaqing in the future, just tell me. I can give you some unimportant things directly. Don't always do this kind of stealing, copying, and robbing.

Your company is in the cultural industry, so you should have some original works, right? Doesn't Mr. Qi have any confidence in your colleagues? 】
