Cheng Yu'an didn't show up in Hong Kong Island for the entire first half of the year. If Hong Kong Island bosses want to find Cheng Yu'an, they have to go north, and he may not have time yet.

Today Tudou went public in Hong Kong. The bosses thought he would come in person, but they didn't expect that he wouldn't come for such a big event.

But fortunately, there are two of the top four remote female generals.

Zhong Lifang and Chen Zhixi have enough weight, and the same goes for talking to them.

First of all, there is Li Yabo, CEO of Yinhuang. He has always been in charge of the co-production between Yinhuang and Yuanyuan.

"Horror Live" was a hit in Hong Kong and achieved the best box office results in mainland China, but it has not actively mentioned co-productions in the new year.

It’s almost half way through this year. If we don’t implement new projects, the Emperor will have one less card in its hand next year.

Boss Yang is not panicking this year. "One Step Away" is the second part of the Republic of China trilogy. Jiang Wen will definitely achieve great results again.

The production business is handled by Chen Zhixi, and she came to Hong Kong with projects.

…………

Chen Zhixi stayed in Hong Kong Island for a week before returning to the company.

As soon as he returned to the company, he held a remote meeting with Cheng Yuan and reported on the results of the discussion in Hong Kong Island:

"Emperor has won the script of "The Bad Guys". This script was originally prepared for the Korean market, but it can also be filmed on Hong Kong Island.

"I'm worried that even if this movie is shot in Hong Kong, it won't be able to enter the mainland. The police and the underworld will cooperate to break it."

Cheng Yu'an smiled: "It should be no problem. Movies like "The Lame Man" can be accepted. As long as they are not salty and wet movies, most Hong Kong movies can be accepted."

"The Sound Emperor wanted to get involved in "Hong Kong", but I didn't agree." Chen Zhixi laughed when he said this. Why did the Sound Emperor think that they could get involved in "Hong Kong" remotely?

Chen Zhixi treated it as a joke, and the two of them laughed and passed: "Media Asia, the production of "Anti-Corruption Storm" has been completed."

Golden Harvest restarted its production business and chose to cooperate with Media Asia. Media Asia wanted to board a long-distance ship through this cooperation. However, due to the controversy at the Academy Awards last year, Golden Harvest delayed Media Asia for half a year.

The filming of "Dang Wo Wo Wo You" was started at the beginning of this year. It was completed in 2 months, finalized in March, and is now fully produced in June.

"Jiahe wants to broadcast it during the summer vacation in August."

"Okay, we're going to produce "Spring Knife" in August, so you need to keep some distance over there." Although the company's internal expectations for the box office of "Spring Knife" are not particularly high, they won't beat themselves up.

"How's your "White Fox" situation going?"

"No problem. I'll go to the Bashang Grassland in a few days. If everything goes well, we can finish filming seven or eight days ahead of schedule." "The Legend of the White Fox" was originally scheduled to wrap up at the end of August, but due to Cheng Yu'an's intervention and Tiangong's efficient support, the crew shot very smoothly.

, it seems that it can be completed in advance.

After Wang Wei returned from Hong Kong Island, he became a hot target in the industry, and his daily interview schedule was full.

The person at the helm of an 80 billion video website is very proud.

"This listing is just a new beginning for Tudou. In Tudou's plan, there are still many tough battles to be fought in the future.

“First of all, it is to increase investment in content, whether it is self-made content or purchased from outside parties, investment in this aspect will be increased.

"In the few days since I came back, Director Han (Director Han joined Tudou after his retirement and was appointed COO to be responsible for Tudou Image) came to me and said that our original investment of 10 billion in self-made content over three years might not be enough. I asked how much we have spent now.

, Director Han said that 7 billion has been spent.

"It's only been a year and a half, and there are only 3 billion left. We have recently been discussing increasing investment in self-production."

Talking about the future development of Tudou, Wang Weichang said: "We will work hard to develop overseas markets. We have already reached preliminary agreements with partners in Japan and South Korea."

Tudou’s entry into the Japanese and Korean markets relies on long-distance channels.

The Korean market is okay. If io can talk, it shouldn't be difficult to help get started, but the Japanese market is in trouble. The Japanese market is too weird.

They don't like to watch live-action movies, or in other words, live-action movies are not as popular as animated movies in the Japanese market.

Tudou wants to make a cartoon in Japan to cater to Japanese audiences and see if it can open up the market.

But that's Japan.

If you are in the animation base, it is very difficult to open up the market with animation.

Wang Wei began to use his bragging skills as a founder and CEO, and would not brag about how to attract investment in his startup:

"Tudou now has a cumulative user base of 300 million, and we are confident that we will achieve the goal of 600 million by this time next year. There are currently more than 8 million paying users, and our goal this year is to have the number of paying users exceed 12 million."

"Mr. Wang, what do you think is the reason why it is so difficult to grow paid users? I see from the disclosed data that the growth of Tudou's VIP users has been very slow last year. It only started to explode on a large scale this year."

Wang Wei agreed with the reporter's point of view: "I think the main factor that restricts the growth of paying users is the audience's awareness of authenticity. Due to various historical reasons, our audience is used to watching piracy, and piracy has formed a complete and huge industrial chain. This does a lot for us.

In terms of content, it was a huge blow.

"Just like "Soul Ferry", we really put a lot of effort into preventing piracy for this film, but a week after the show was aired, the complete high-definition episode was available online. Although we also took measures later,

But the film has been leaked, and we have suffered a great loss.

"Audiences used to watch dramas on TV, and they could sit down and watch without paying at all. So over time, everyone formed a mindset that watching TV dramas doesn't cost money.

"This is a problem of the entire social environment. This problem is not only a problem for our video website, but also a problem faced by all content creators.

“We need to cultivate the audience’s habit of paying.”

“Then how do you think we can cultivate the audience’s paying habits?”

"On the one hand, we must actively combat piracy, which requires the joint efforts of the government, enterprises and us audiences; on the creative side, cultivating the audience's paying habits is to create good content." Wang Wei blurted out, "People are willing to pay for good things.

Beautiful things cost money, and the same goes for dramas, content, and websites. You have to come up with something that the audience likes, and then the audience will be willing to spend money for you. You can't just throw it in front of the audience and ask for it.

The audience pays the bill, which is unrealistic.

"Our audience is very smart, and if you want to take money out of their pockets, you have to learn to respect them."

"Now I heard that some websites of the same type have started to play some tricks in order to save costs. For example, he wrote on the website that you need to recharge VIP to watch 1080P high-definition resources, but when you recharge, he will give you indeed

It is 720P picture quality.
