"Search engines, why did they suddenly think of doing this?" Chai Ting asked curiously.

"Just tell me if we can make money by doing this." Long Wu said.

"It's certain to make money, but the domestic network gap has been almost filled by major websites. It's not easy to interfere with the giants who are fighting for food. The main point is that Baidu, Sina, and Tencent are already deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It's difficult for new companies to expand the market, and they also need strong funds. Now, when we do entertainment media, there is no need to involve that field." Chai Ting expressed her own opinions.

"Don't there be many rankings in China? These are not determined based on the rankings on the Internet." Long Wu said.

"Yes, there are many types of rankings, such as the Internet, radio, and KTV. We do not have heavyweight rankings in the mainland. Hong Kong is the pioneer, followed by Taiwan. Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom and the United States are more authoritative and well-known in this regard. For example, Japan's credibility list, South Korea's mcom, American billboards and British uk list. The more well-known ones in our country are the Baidu Music rankings." Chai Ting said.

"Is there any other signing artists of our Longteng Media besides Jennifer?" Long Wu asked.

"No, the funds you gave have just been in place and are in the expansion plan. If you want to dig for veteran artists, you can dig for it just by digging. Artists and media companies have agreements signed by them, unless they wait for their contract to expire. As for newcomers, you have to choose from major talent shows. This kind of thing is that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so you have to take your time." Chai Ting said.

"We want to develop record entertainment, and there is also film and television. I feel that making a more grand ranking can help fuel the fire. Although Longteng is just starting out, it has to consider long-term strategic deployment. What do you think?" Long Wu asked.

"I really didn't think about it before. Now, after hearing what you said, it's a good suggestion." Chai Ting agreed.

"When I was having dinner with Han Sanping tonight, let's discuss this matter in detail." Long Wu said, picking up the teacup and taking a sip.

......

At noon, he accompanied Chai Ting to have dinner at the company restaurant, and Ba Yue called.

"Master, if there is nothing wrong, I will go back to Shanghai tonight!"

"Where is that guy Jiang Muzi!" Long Wu asked.

"Hang together!"

"Then you go back first. I still have something to do in Beijing. I will go back after a few days." Long Wu said.

Jiang Muzi doesn't need Long Wu to care about him. Since it was arranged by Wang Dongliang, there will definitely be guaranteed in terms of food, drink, accommodation and transportation, so Long Wu doesn't need to worry about it.

In the afternoon, Long Wu called Han Sanping in advance. After all, he was a busy person. If he didn't make an appointment in advance, the dinner party would probably be ruined. Han Sanping did not dare to neglect Long Wu, a young man with a mysterious identity background. Although Han Sanping did not have a detailed understanding of what Ye Tianming did, he could also see from the edge angle that he was definitely a heavyweight with great power in Beijing.

This time, he did not go to the Beijing Hotel, but to the top luxury private room booked by Pangu Seven Star Hotel. Long Wu and Chai Ting were with him and did not follow others. Han Sanping came with a person who surprised Long Wu and Chai Ting after seeing him. Tsui Hark, a famous director, screenwriter, producer, and also one of the most influential figures in the Hong Kong film industry. Before coming, I believe Han Sanping must have introduced Long Wu's heroic nature to Tsui Hark. After arriving at the private room, Han Sanping and Tsui Hark politely shook hands with Long Wu and Chai Ting.

Han Sanping smiled and introduced: "Dr. Long, I'm afraid I don't need to introduce him. There are few people in China who don't know him. Lao Xu, this is Longwu, the chairman of Longteng International Group, and this is General Manager Chai."

"Good luck to meet!" Tsui Hark shook hands with Long Wu and said.

Although Long Wu is now rising, he still admires his elders very much and said enthusiastically: "I didn't expect to see the famous Director Xu today. I am really lucky to see the famous Director Xu. The Seven Swords, Longmen Flying Armor, Shushan Chuan and Di Renjie filmed by Director Xu are all immortal classics. I don't usually watch movies often, but Director Xu's movies have to watch them, which is wonderful."

"Dr. Long has ruined me!" Tsui Hark laughed.

"Two guys, hurry up, waiter, start serving the food!" Long Wu said.

While the dishes were served, the waiter also filled the liquor for the four of them. Long Wu picked up the wine glass and said to Tsui Hark, "Director Xu, I'll give you a glass."

"Dr. Long is so polite!" Tsui Hark said, and the two raised their glasses and slapped them all.

During the meal, Han Sanping said: "Old Xu's Longmen Flying Armor has been soaring at the box office at home and abroad, and it is another bumper year!"

"It's so careless, it's pretty good!" Tsui Hark said modestly.

"Last year, our total production of various films in China reached 791, with a total box office of 13.115 billion yuan, of which the box office of China was 7.031 billion yuan, and 20 were 10 million yuan. Compared with the United States, we still have a big gap, but compared with 10 years, it has increased by 28.93%, and the results are quite impressive." Han Sanping said.

"The film industry in our country is developing rapidly, which is a gratifying thing. All of this is inseparable from Director Han and Director Xu." Long Wu praised.

"Technology and capital have always been the biggest problem facing the domestic film industry. Compared with Hollywood's big investments and big productions, we are much behind. Take Avatar for example. Investment of 500 million US dollars is using the most advanced imax3d technology. And we are investing tens of millions of US dollars is already very expensive." Tsui Hark said.

Long Wu lit a cigarette and started smoking, laughed, and asked Tsui Hark, "What type of movie will Director Xu prepare for next?"

"I also shoot martial arts films that I am good at, which is also our strengths and characteristics of China. American science fiction cannot be surpassed. They have good scripts, so we can only learn from our strengths and weaknesses and make the Chinese movie characteristics." Tsui Hark said.

"Have the investor found it?" Long Wu asked.

"The script is being created, and the investor has not yet." Tsui Hark said.

"If Director Xu doesn't dislike it, let me do this investor." Long Wu said.

Tsui Hark was obviously stunned after hearing this. Unexpectedly, Long Wu suddenly had such an idea. He became interested and asked, "How much can Long Gong invest?"

"That depends on what kind of movie Director Xu wants to make!" Long Wu said.

"The three most important factors of movies are actors, plots and productions. Actors are the appeal of box office, and plots and post-production are the guarantee of box office sales. The reason why Hollywood's Transformers, Spider-Man, and Avatar can sell well around the world is that they have outstanding visual impact. As long as the funds are sufficient, we can also shoot Avatar effects." Tsui Hark said.

"It's simple. Didn't Avatar invest $500 million? I invested $1 billion to let Director Xu show his power and fully display his talents. I don't believe that our Chinese movies can't beat their American ones." Long Wu said proudly.

"1 billion!" Tsui Hark exclaimed, and Han Sanping next to him was also shocked.

With a huge investment of $1 billion, how incredible will the effect of the film be?

Seeing that both of them looked unbelievable, Long Wu laughed and said, "I'm not kidding. I really have to invest $1 billion in filming a movie for Director Xu, provided that Director Xu wants to make classic works that can make me money. After all, 1 billion is not a small amount for me."

Tsui Hark swallowed, and then said excitedly: "If Director Long really invested me 1 billion US dollars, Tsui Hark would not be bragging. It would be no difficulty to refresh the history of the movie's box office. As long as there is enough funds to support it, the publicity work can be overwhelmed, and the box office of the movie is also inseparable from the publicity efforts."

After hearing this, Long Wu laughed and said, "It's true that I'm so bold, okay, I'll take the time to hand over the funds to Director Xu in the past two days."

"I'm honored to be able to cooperate with Mr. Long," said Tsui Hark.

As a director, what he most desires is, of course, the investor. Only with absolute funds can he present the world he wants to create perfectly, otherwise, no matter how good the script is, he will not be able to be put on the screen. The reason why Hollywood science fiction blockbusters are popular is that they dare to think, do and invest, shoot imaginary things, and make big investments. If they hand over the scripts of Transformers and Avatar to these Chinese directors without strong funds as a backing, the only thing they can do is to make the film like shit-like garbage.

Funding determines everything.

After getting Tsui Hark done, Long Wu did not give up, but asked Han Sanping: "Director Han, what are the plans for China Film in the near future?"

Han Sanping was secretly shocked. Could it be that Long Wu wanted to invest in China Film again? So he immediately raised his spirit of 200% and said: "Our China has a rich historical material and will never be finished. The Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties were relatively less dramatic. China Film was making scripts and preparing to shoot a large-scale costume TV series."

"The New Three Kingdoms filmed by Director Gao a few years ago is good. It has always had the highest ratings at that time and won many awards. How much did that TV series invest in?" Long Wu asked.

"I invested 150 million yuan." Han Sanping said. He was the leader of Zhongying and knew everything clearly.

"The times are progressing, and technology is innovating. If you use these 150 million shots now, it will probably not have any good results. Let's do this. Longteng Media invested 500 million yuan in China Film and strive to produce an epoch-making historical masterpiece." Long Wu said.
