Chapter 1517 One billion box office record!
Under the temptation of huge bonuses, manufacturers of pirated CDs across the country encountered unprecedented blows overnight. More than 50% of pirated merchants were arrested overnight, and almost all of the remaining pirated merchants disappeared the next day after they made heavy blows.
No one of these pirated merchants who have not been arrested yet dared to be sure whether their information was reported to Muye Technology, so they either started running away or began to destroy evidence. In short, almost no one dared to commit crimes against the wind.
At this time, those who dare to commit crimes against the wind are generally small family workshops, which do not require additional workers. The raw materials entering and the finished products are very hidden and are not easy to be discovered.
However, in a few days, even if these small-scale producers were not arrested, they had largely lost the motivation to produce piracy, because the supply chain of this market began to break down, and no one on the market dared to sell pirated CDs for a while.
This is the terrible thing about Muye Technology. Once a large enterprise of this size starts to even sell pirated plates on the streets and alleys, it will submit these clues to the local law enforcement department every few hours to consult the local law enforcement department for the results of law enforcement feedback. If the result is delayed, the legal team maintained by Muye Technology will send a special person to the local "cooperate with the law enforcement department to combat piracy."
To say it is cooperation, it is actually to apply pressure in a different way.
Makino Technology itself is a world-class star enterprise and the largest online platform. It has strong publicity capabilities. In this campaign to combat piracy, it also perfectly demonstrated the image of good citizens and model enterprises. These factors have forced local law enforcement units to pay attention to the campaign to combat piracy.
Pirated audio and video stores, CD rental stores and roadside stalls, which are numerous in the streets and alleys, have been arrested for several rounds, confiscated several rounds of pirated audio and video products, and administratively detained the owners suspected of selling pirated audio and video products, and have almost all closed down.
This is mainly because among the various reporting information received by Muye Technology, the reporting information about pirated audio-visual products sellers accounts for more than 90% of all reporting information, and every sales store with pirated CDs has been complained by a large number of citizens.
The reason is very simple. Production lines are originally a minority, and pirated manufacturers do 2b (to-business) business and do not do 2 (to-onsumer) business, just like in clothing production, they face wholesale agents and do not directly face consumers, so most people have no way to report production lines.
What directly faces consumers are these small shops on the streets and alleys, with over 10,000 people at the door every day. From the boss’s wife at the opposite barber shop to the master of the ramen shop next door, and the gangsters who have no money to surf the Internet diagonally across the door of the Internet cafe, everyone wants to make the 2,000 yuan of successful reporting, so everyone reports such shops wildly.
According to data analysis by Makino Technology, the number of information reported by different people at the same time reached more than 260.
The nuclear strike of Muye Technology and the panic of the entire piracy industry have also caused the entire industry to suffer an unprecedented heavy blow.
Many pirated practitioners hate Makino Technology in their hearts. In their eyes, they just make some money. Compared with companies like Makino Technology with a valuation of over 100 billion US dollars, they are simply comparable to ants. Everyone pirated "Crazy Stone" and is equivalent to a group of ants snatching the bread crumbs that Muye Technology fell on the ground when they were having a meal. Makino Technology is going to kill all this, which is really inhumane.
Some pirated users are also very dissatisfied with Makino Technology's approach. For a time, the route of enjoying intellectual property rights was cut off. Not only did they not buy or see the pirated "Crazy Stone", but even other pirated videos, music tapes and ds are difficult to buy. They blamed Makino Technology for this "loss", and called on many netizens who hold the same viewpoint to spread attacks on Makino Technology.
When these voices were fed back into Li Mu's ears, he did not relax his attack on pirated merchants, and did not delete any remarks criticizing Muye Technology online.
If someone really wants to scold Muye Technology for cracking down on piracy, then he will not only not delete their insulting remarks, but will keep these things. He believes that even if consumers cannot understand themselves now, they will still understand them in the next few years. This is the inevitable result of social progress and the strengthening of the public's legal awareness. These remarks that support, maintain, and favor pirated remarks will sooner or later be nailed to the shameful pillar of China's intellectual property protection path.
...
With the protection of cracking down on piracy, "Crazy Stone" remains popular in the next week.
The average box office on weekdays is more than 65 million, which makes people in the entire industry suffer from pink eye disease.
Just after half a day on Saturday, the total box office exceeded 1 billion yuan. This is the unprecedented peak of box office for Chinese films and an excellent proof of the commercial potential of Chinese films.
Almost all media contributed their front-page headlines to "Crazy Stone", turned on the TV at 6:30 pm, and almost every satellite TV news program was reporting this historic moment. In the subsequent news broadcast, CCTV also listed this news as the main content and focused on reporting.
CCTV said in the report that "Crazy Stone" represents the huge potential contained in the local commercial films and commercial film market in China, and believes that this will be a new starting point for Chinese films.
A movie represents the potential of the entire industry;
A movie represents a new starting point for the entire Chinese movie;
The evaluation given by CCTV is indeed very high. Although it is very high, it is not a hit.
A box office of one billion is simply a myth. Any movie that can achieve this box office result in this era can be directly won!
"Crazy Stone" has a huge positive impact on the entire industry, with a box office of one billion yuan, and has cultivated tens of millions of paid audiences for the future Chinese film industry and cultivated their habit of buying tickets to the cinema to watch movies;
At the same time, the one billion box office also made the directors and screenwriters in the industry realize the explosive growth market space in the future. The increase in the total box office volume indicates that this pot of big pot rice is expanding, and everyone can eat more and better than before, so this made them start to get ready to work and have greater passion to invest in this industry;
In addition, the capital popularity of the film and television industry also soared instantly. Before "Crazy Stone", not many people dared to invest tens of millions to make a movie, because the box office may not reach tens of millions. However, "Crazy Stone" showed such a strong box office performance, turning the film and television industry from a barren yellow land into an oil field with huge benefits.
Because of the unparalleled super high attendance rate of "Crazy Stone", theaters have made a fortune during this period. For a time, even investing in theaters has become a good business in the eyes of physical entrepreneurs. In addition, Li Mu had previously launched the "Screen Fission Plan", which has added a strong guarantee and psychological support for those who want to invest in theaters.
In order to celebrate the box office of "Crazy Stone" exceeded 1 billion, Makino Yingxiang organized an internal celebration banquet in Yanjing. This celebration banquet did not invite any media. In addition to the executives of Makino Technology, Makino Yingxiang's employees, contracted artists, crew members, only Chen Ze, Song Liang and Cai Zhengmao from the S Club were invited to attend.
The reason why the media and guests were not invited was that two celebration banquets were prepared in total. This one was a celebration banquet for our own people to be together in the true sense. The celebration banquet two days later was publicly invited media reporters and guests to attend. That celebration banquet was mainly to provide a new round of publicity and momentum for the movie, which was equivalent to adding another fire.
However, Li Mu was unable to attend the second celebration banquet. The party he agreed with Sequoia's boss Stevejohnson was close to him. The business plane he rented will take off from Yanjing to fly directly to London tomorrow. Li Mu was traveling with Li Ziwei and Wang Yuanlang, three personal bodyguards, including them. In addition to them, there were two guests, namely Anne Hathaway, and her personal assistant.
At the celebration banquet, Ning Hao, as the protagonist, was so excited that he couldn't even say anything. From an unknown practitioner to a top director who broke the box office for one billion in a single movie, the others failed to succeed for decades, and it took him only two years to succeed.
When everyone started to urge him to say something, he, a rough man, didn't hold back his emotions and cried like a middle-aged man who ran away with his beloved wife and good brother.
As the boss, Li Mu stepped forward to comfort him, but he hugged Li Mu and cried even harder.
Li Mu can understand Ning Hao's mood at this moment. No matter how successful science is exaggerated in society, for most people in the world, eight out of ten things that are not satisfactory in life are.
It’s good to be in the workplace or in any industry or field. As long as you are not a boss, you have to face something that tests your character: Can you meet a good boss on your path to growth?
However, good bosses are much rarer in this society than giant pandas.
Some bosses directly lose their employees;
In order to find ways to withhold employees' salaries, some bosses lose weight;
I am really willing to take out the rice in my pot and let my employees and family have enough food. How many bosses can I have?
Therefore, Ning Hao was particularly glad that he met Li Mu. As the boss, Li Mu was much better than the best boss he imagined. This movie could reach such a height because he built such a tall and solid foundation for this movie.
Li Mu patted Ning Hao's shoulder and said jokingly: "Don't be too excited, Lao Ning, you just set a new record, but the meaning of recording this thing is to make people break it."
Ning Hao wiped his tears and said, "Then I hope my record can be broken sooner, that is the real spring of Chinese movies."
Li Mu smiled and said, "Then I think the next one to break the box office record of "Crazy Stone" should be "Flying Tigers".
Ning Hao nodded and said, "The Flying Tigers' box office in North America alone may reach hundreds of millions of dollars in the future. I can't imagine how much the global box office can reach."
