1392 Burning Passion
"How could this happen? They are so famous. If they really want to make money, all they have to do is say hello, and many powerful people from film and television companies will come to give them money. How can they live in such a tight situation?"
Pan Xiangyun asked in disbelief. He originally wanted to use the word "poor" to describe it, but he probably felt it was a bit disrespectful, so he changed it to the word "destitute".
"That's because you don't understand their character."
For the first time, a look of respect appeared in Ding Ning's eyes: "They have dedicated their lives and souls to the art of film. In order to make movies, they solicit investors from all over the world, but because the movies they shoot have no hope of box office, they are willing to invest.
If the people in their movies weren't for
To train their artists is to owe them a favor. In this case, the investment money is definitely not enough. They can only invest the income from their last movie into the new movie, and even write the script before the movie starts.
All the copyright fees and director fees are invested in it.”
"As a result, new movies are destined to be unprofitable, which creates a vicious cycle, making it harder and harder for them to invest and making their lives more and more embarrassing."
Ouyang Yuntian said, with a hint of respect on his face: "Actually, as long as they are willing to make commercial films, there will be many people rushing to invest in their films, but they think that commercial films have too strong a smell of copper and are not good for their hearts.
Art is a kind of blasphemy, so
Since they agreed to make a commercial film this time, they must have had no choice but to bow to reality. But even so, they strictly adhered to their bottom line and wanted to make a high-quality TV series instead of the shoddy ones on the market now.
Those TV shows.”
"Yes, this is how I can confidently persuade them to sign a contract with Tiangong Entertainment. However, my identity needs to be kept secret for the time being, so I can only trouble Ouyang to come forward and discuss these matters with them."
Ding Ning glanced at Ouyang Yuntian approvingly and said lightly: "You talk to them first. They will definitely not agree at first, but this is your business. I don't ask about the process, as long as the result, the two of them
, especially Cheng Wenhai, Teacher Cheng, must join our Tiangong."
"Okay, I will go talk to them and I will definitely take them down."
Ouyang Yuntian said eagerly. He knew that this was Ding Ning's test for him and it was also the time for him to show his abilities. He must give a satisfactory answer to this first test.
"Okay, I will arrange the second task now."
Ding Ning took out two bank cards like magic, picked up one card and said: "This card contains 5 billion, which is used as the starting capital for Tiangong Entertainment's diversified development route. Whether you increase the company's registered capital or increase the company's registered capital,
Besides setting up a company, I want you to set up a production company and a distribution company in the shortest possible time, including purchasing equipment and recruiting people. The money should be enough, right?"
"Enough is enough, but starting a distribution company requires approval from relevant departments. This is not easy to do without strong personal connections."
Ouyang Yuntian marveled at Ding Ning's wealth. He spent 5 billion. This was a bit too lavish, but the money was enough, but film distribution approval was not something that only money could guarantee. He had to tell the ugly story.
front.
"Leave this to me."
Before Ding Ning could say anything, Wen Rourou rushed to speak.
"Are you familiar with the Radio, Film and Television Bureau? Do you have a good relationship?"
Ding Ning asked curiously. He only knew that the old man of Wenrou Rou's family was a deputy national boss, but he really hadn't paid attention to which department he was in.
"I'm not familiar with him, but someone is familiar with him. The old man from the Mosquito family works in the National Propaganda Department. According to reliable information, he will soon be the top leader. That is the deputy state level."
Gentle and soft lips, smiling
said.
Ding Ning was completely surprised and said with an excited smile: "I didn't expect mosquitoes to have such a big background. Now the tiger has caught up with the rising tide."
"Tch, the old man from the Huzi family will soon be promoted to the top of the Yanjing Military Region. That is the level of a full-scale military region. Compared with his family background, he is no worse than a mosquito."
Wenrou curled her lips and said somewhat sourly.
"What do you have to be jealous of? Your old man has already reached the deputy state level. As for overturning the jealousy, he will."
Xiaoyao joked with a smile.
"Tch, stop talking about me. My grandfather is only as old as your father. Now he has caught up with my grandfather. Of course you can stand and talk without back pain."
Wenrou rolled her beautiful eyes.
“We are all our own people, it’s best if we all go up.”
Ding Ning said with a smile, but he was muttering in his heart that the older the official, the greater the obstacles for him to marry them in the future. This is really a headache.
The three of them talked casually about their family backgrounds as if no one else was around. Ye Huan and others had long known that their backgrounds were extraordinary, but they didn't feel anything. However, Ouyang Yuntian's jaw almost dropped to the ground in shock.
Wenrourou? Grandpa is a deputy national level. Ouyang Yuntian quickly recognized this uncommon surname and couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He was a big shot who could often be seen in the news.
Wei Yaoyao? The surname Wei is not very common. The deputy national leader with the surname Wei, who is not very old and has just been in office, is already being revealed.
Ouyang Yuntian was stunned. His heart was filled with shock and ecstasy. He didn't expect that the new boss would have such a big background.
Although we still don’t know what Ding Ning’s background is, the fact that he can be on equal terms with rich and powerful daughters like Xiaoyao and Wenrou Rou, and still hold a vague dominant position, shows how terrifying his background is.
Although Bai Qing's background is strong enough and he is the quasi-heir of the four powerful Bai family, after all, he is not as shocking as a direct elder with real power like Wen Rou and Xiaoyao.
In this ancient country of China, the government's influence always ranks first. This makes Ouyang Yuntian's blood boil and his eyes are shining. He seems to have seen the beauty of Tiangong Entertainment becoming the world's number one entertainment giant.
prospect.
Ding Ning's peripheral vision glanced at Ouyang Yuntian's somewhat reserved but inexplicably excited expression, and he suddenly understood. No wonder Xiaoyao and Wenrourou have always been very low-key, but now they suddenly show off their family background without any concealment. This is another example.
Ouyang Yuntian strengthened his confidence and at the same time beat him.
He was a little dumbfounded in his heart, but he was more moved. He knew that Wenrou and Xiaoyao didn't want to use their family background to pressure others, so they did this to help him.
"Then Rourou, I will leave this matter to you."
I was moved all the same, but business still had to be done, Ding Ning said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I'll call Mosquito later, and it will probably be done tomorrow morning. By the way, President Ouyang, please have someone prepare the corresponding information and procedures, and I'll go pick them up tomorrow morning."
Wenrou was very active in doing something for Ding Ning and said to Ouyang Yuntian.
"Okay, Miss Wen, I'm going to have someone prepare the information tonight. It's really troublesome for you."
Although Ouyang Yuntian has been in a high position for a long time, he has become a lot more reserved when facing Wenrou, and his attitude is extremely polite.
"Okay, now that the arrangements have been made, let me talk about the third task."
Ding Ning picked up another bank card on the table, and his expression became serious: "There are 10 billion in this card."
Ouyang Yuntian's face suddenly became serious. He sat quietly and listened attentively. He could handle five billion.
Such a big thing, these 10 billion must be used to do more important things.
"This 10 billion is used to acquire theaters."
As soon as Ding Ning finished speaking, he saw Ouyang Yuntian looking stunned and wanting to speak. He stretched out his finger and shook his finger to signal him to listen to what he said: "I know that domestic theaters are now divided among major municipalities and even first- and second-tier cities.
All are monopolized by major theater chains
, but as far as I know, not all theaters in first- and second-tier cities have been acquired by major theater companies. Many theaters actually have cooperative relationships with theater companies. You can put more effort into these theaters and be sure to
These theaters are included in the package.”
"However, since these theaters are cooperating with theater chains, it means that they have no intention of selling. It is not easy to acquire them."
Ouyang Yuntian's face turned bitter again. Although the new boss was wealthy and tough enough, his ideas were too wild and unrestrained. Since those theaters could survive in the cracks of so many theater companies without being merged, it was enough to show that they
has a great appetite.
"It doesn't matter. I'll try my best to negotiate. Doubling the market price is my bottom line. If this doesn't work, there's nothing I can do. I can only buy the land and build my own arena to compete with them. But that's the last resort I can take if it doesn't work.
After all, the cycle of self-construction is too long, and it is not as convenient and fast as directly acquiring and renovating it.”
Ding Ning said thoughtfully.
Buy your own land and build your own?
Ouyang Yuntian was confused by his words and roared crazily in his heart, I know you are a rich man, but a rich man cannot be so inhumane. Do you know how much it costs to buy land, build a cinema, and then get equipment and decorations?
?
Ding Ning ignored his voice and continued: "Acquiring theaters in first- and second-tier cities is only one aspect. My main plan is to acquire existing theaters in third- and fourth-tier cities or even county towns. Although these cities or counties are small, they are better in number.
, the price is cheap.”
"However, residents in these small cities have limited spending power. How many people will go to cinemas to watch movies? The reason why large theater companies do not acquire theaters in these small cities is because they consider their consumption power and backward concepts.
With a monthly salary of two to three thousand yuan, who would be willing to spend dozens of yuan to watch a movie in a cinema? This kind of gain is not directly proportional to the investment."
Ouyang Yuntian put forward a different view. He felt that this was simply a waste of money, and in the end he would lose all his money.
"Haha, don't worry about it. Just go and buy it. Shanren only has a clever plan. You will know it when the time comes."
Ding Ning gave a secretive smile and gave an unquestionable order: "After the acquisition, don't open the business for the time being. Give me a list and I will arrange for people to decorate it. By the way, there are also some small theaters that cannot be expanded.
Don’t buy it, I need a theater with at least seven screening rooms, the bigger the place, the better.”
"Oh well!"
Seeing Ding Ning's confident look, Ouyang Yuntian could only agree, thinking that it would be a loss of your money anyway. Since you are not afraid, I am still afraid.
"Okay, these are the three things we have to do now. Ouyang, go talk to Director Pan and the others. Call Song Ziyi in by the way. I have something to talk to her about."
Ding Ning felt that what needed to be explained had been clearly explained, so he waved his hand and asked Ouyang Yuntian to go out.
"Brother-in-law, what kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd? Ouyang Yuntian is right, theaters in small cities will really lose money."
