"Uh? Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I will make arrangements."

When Liu Xinsheng heard Yang Ming's words, he was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that he was digging a hole for the other party!

Although Yang Ming's move seemed a little sinister, it was nothing to mention to Liu Xinsheng, who had seen too many swords and swords in the entertainment industry. As the general manager of Oriental DreamWorks, he had to deal with all these.

I think back on when those guys from the Zhang family used dirty tricks to get Guo Xiaotian addicted to drugs, and then framed him, the other party obviously wanted to completely destroy Oriental DreamWorks, otherwise they wouldn't have used such insidious methods.

Therefore, now that he had guessed Yang Ming's intention, not only was he not disgusted, but he was very excited.

He Xinghan has been making defamatory remarks against Yang Ming and Oriental DreamWorks on various occasions recently, but Yang Ming cannot make a big deal out of trivial matters, and Liu Xinsheng is also very angry about this.

"Um!"

On the phone, Yang Ming nodded, and after giving instructions, he hung up the phone and fell into deep thought.

Buy a box office!

Box office fraud!

This kind of thing is not a rare thing in the film industry, it can be said that everyone knows it.

In the past, counterfeiting was done through primitive means through theaters. However, with the advancement of technology, the methods of counterfeiting have become more convenient and increasingly difficult to detect.

Yang Ming doesn't feel any burden about digging holes for Victory Pictures.

Ho Sing-han has always been full of malice towards him, targeting Oriental DreamWorks everywhere. After he announced that his new film would be about racing, Victory Pictures couldn't wait to announce that it would also make a racing movie. If they don't know that movies with the same theme will impact the box office potential, I guess

No one will believe it.

Even if He Xinghan is a playboy, he will definitely not be an idiot and deliberately waste money.

But now the other party has not only done it, but also invested a huge amount. It is obviously serious. Yang Ming has also guessed the other party's intention, and both sides will suffer!!

Maybe Victory Pictures' racing movie can't stop Yang Ming's new film, but it will definitely affect the box office of Yang Ming's new film and fail to achieve the expected goal.

This is a completely lose-lose approach.

The other party did not hesitate to risk huge losses and severely suppress the box office potential of Yang Ming's new film.

Therefore, now Yang Ming asks Liu Xinsheng to dig a hole for the other party. There is no psychological burden at all. He will only think that the hole is not big enough.

Yang Ming put down his cell phone and lay on the luxurious mahogany bed in the room, looking at the ceiling above his head with a thoughtful expression.

He was not thinking about digging a hole for He Xinghan, but he was thinking about the impact if the method of box office fraud through an e-commerce platform similar to Maoyan Movies and Timely Movies was leaked.

Box office fraud is nothing new in the film industry, but no matter how crazy it was in the past, it was not as crazy as it was after the emergence of e-commerce platforms.

The crazy box office fraud of local movies in his previous life, as an insider, he knew the inside story very well, it was so crazy.

He knew about a so-called blockbuster that had not even recovered its cost. However, through various means of hype and fraud, the final box office figure of this blockbuster was turned into 500 million to 600 million, making it a popular movie reported by the media!

Moreover, such fraud was common in previous lives, and later it became even more blatant. Producers, e-commerce companies, sponsors, etc. even joined forces to carry out joint fraud, which to some extent hijacked domestic films and gave local films

Development creates a lot of bubbles.

False prosperity!

Yang Ming shuddered when he thought of this.

He absolutely does not want the film industry in this world to become as chaotic as the previous one.

It must be stopped.

However, his power alone is not enough to affect the overall situation of the contemporary Chinese film industry.

Even if he is now worth hundreds of billions, even if Oriental DreamWorks has a certain influence in the film industry, even if he is hailed as a genius director in the Chinese film industry and breaks countless film history records, it is not enough for him to change the entire world on his own.

Film Circle.

Moreover, he knows very well that the profit chain behind this kind of box office fraud is beyond the reach of him and Oriental DreamWorks.

It must be borrowed.

Yang Ming couldn't help but think of Minister Guo and Mr. Tao!

Thinking of this, he suddenly sat up straight with a pensive look on his face. Since he dug out this big hole in this life, he should be responsible for filling it up, so as not to become a poison in the film industry and endanger everyone.

In fact, Yang Ming knew that even without him, other film companies would have discovered this method.

Apart from anything else, he estimated that Shangguantian knew very well in his heart. Yang Ming felt that Shangguantian had mentioned this matter very vaguely in the previous contacts, but he was cut off and the other party never mentioned it.

He sorted out the various dangers of box office fraud through e-commerce platforms in his previous life, and then handed it over to Minister Guo and Mr. Tao.

The government and the film industry's own associations are taking action at the same time. Yang Ming believes that large-scale box office fraud can be restricted.

At this time, he was not sleepy at all, so he found his notebook and pen, and sat down at the table. If he wanted to convince Minister Guo and Mr. Tao to deal with the problem, he must come up with some solid information to convince them.

Yang Ming recalled in his mind the inside story about box office fraud in his previous life.

Creating so-called ‘ghost fields’ through e-commerce platforms is not a new method.

Movie fans and people who don't know much about it may have questions and deep doubts in their hearts: What benefits does box office fraud have to the film producers?

You need to know about box office fraud, but you need real money to buy real movie tickets sold on the Internet. Every movie ticket sold must be divided into theaters. It can be said that even if you want to fake box office, you have to have it.

This strength is enough.

Ordinary movies simply don’t have the ability to cheat at the box office.

So much money is spent on fraud and hype, what exactly is the studio trying to do?

Yang Ming is very clear about this issue. In other words, this is the most direct and obvious benefit brought by box office fraud.

Stimulating audiences and theaters in the early stage, and setting box office records in the later stage, this is what the film studio wants.

Using this method in the early stages of a movie's release can help the movie quickly reach a certain box office result, thereby shaping the image of a super blockbuster and allowing audiences without a clear goal of watching the movie to follow suit and buy tickets. In addition, the theater can be subsidized through the "ghost theater" method

, also prompted theaters to be more inclined to this film when arranging films, thereby achieving better box office results.

The blockbuster image detonates the box office and increases the film scheduling rate!

This is the purpose of the film studio's box office fraud.

In addition, many movies will use this method to hit the box office record when they are about to go offline. For example, a movie that has sold over 900 million will work harder to hit the 1 billion mark.

When a movie sets a box office record, or reaches a certain box office figure, it will undoubtedly have a very important impact on the film's subsequent copyright income, which is also the purpose of the film studio.

While Yang Ming was writing and drawing in his notebook, he was recalling everything he knew in his previous life.

He wrote down everything he knew, and then used it to convince Minister Guo and Mr. Tao.

After a long time, he stopped writing and looked at the full notebook, frowning, as if he was not satisfied. He always felt that he had missed something.

Yang Ming knew that the film crew's fraud was only one of them, and there were other purposes as well.

It's just that due to the level of contact he had in his previous life, he doesn't know much about the truly deeply hidden inside story. He only heard it vaguely mentioned by others once in a while.

What on earth did he miss?

However, I don’t know what happened. The more Yang Ming thought about it, the less he knew where he had forgotten it.

He looked carefully at everything written in the notebook, trying to find out what was missing.

He clearly stated the purpose of the film crew's fraud and everything that should be written. It seemed that there was nothing else left to write.

——Dong dong.

Yang Ming tapped the table with his pen, making a soft sound.

His eyes were looking ahead in confusion, and his mind was thinking about any memories related to box office fraud in his previous life.

Counterfeiting, purpose, film studio, Internet, movie tickets, investment

The more he thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.

Thought of it!

Yang Ming couldn't help but think of something he heard mentioned by a friend in his previous life, that is, in order to seek listing, an Internet e-commerce platform did not hesitate to spend money to subsidize the box office in order to make the company's business data more beautiful.

And this so-called box office subsidy includes box office fraud and movie ticket subsidies to create "ghost fields"!

To put it objectively, if we are strictly looking at the concept, box office fraud is carried out through the Internet ticketing platform, because every penny of the box office generated is paid for by the film studio or the audience with real money.

Why were there so many "ghost shows" that were packed late at night in the past life? Is it just because of the greed of the film crew?

Obviously not!

When Yang Ming thought of this, his whole idea immediately became clear. In addition, his status in this life was completely different from that in his previous life. He had been exposed to financial business several times and knew more things, which also made his horizons much higher.

Combined with the clues he knew from his previous life, he quickly deduced what was going on.

Financing, listing!

This is a chain of interests.

Film studios, theaters, third-party Internet ticketing platforms, and film investors!

Yang Ming connected all these, and the whole idea became very clear. Film studios seek influence and create records, third-party Internet ticketing platforms seek to create good-looking financial reports and increase the market influence of p2p products; and film investors also pursue

Better financial data reporting.

All parties have the same interests, but they unite to engage in crazy fraud.

Among them, the theater chain company may be the most innocent, but the other party must also have played a disgraceful role. After all, the theater chain is the most important link in it, and other parties have blocked the admission of the hospital through a large number of "ghost field" movie tickets.
