"Mr. Tang, under the guidance of our dissemination army, 5 songs have firmly occupied the top ten of major music charts."
"Especially "Learning to Meow", which has always been ranked first."
"However, Zhou Jielun's "Blue and White Porcelain" is very powerful and can occasionally take back the first place. Should we send someone to hack this song?"
Listening to Lao Wu reporting on the performance of the five divine songs while giving his own suggestions, Tang Ze shook his head:
"It's just a list of pirated websites, there's no need to go to war."
"No matter what you do, you must have confidence first. Our songs are confidence, and Zhou Jielun's songs are also confidence. Other means are called lack of confidence."
Lao Wu immediately said angrily: "But I see online comparisons between you and Zhou Jielun all the time, but Zhou Jielun is only a song writer, how can he understand your greatness?"
How great am I...
Tangze thinks, should he occasionally show some shortcomings?
Lest Lao Wu really think of him as omnipotent.
"It's okay, comparison is valuable. Before that, who was willing to talk about me, a little person?"
"And!" Tang Ze said seriously: "Those 5 songs were not written by me, but by the old monster. Don't admit it to the outside world! Netizens are free to guess."
These words made Lao Wu even more aware of Tang Ze's greatness.
Tangze is so humble!
If Tang Ze generously admitted that he wrote this song, wouldn't it mean that he defeated Zhou Jielun and dominated the music scene with a few songs?
But obviously, Tang Ze didn't care about this, or he didn't take Zhou Jielun to heart at all.
In comparison, it was Old Wu who was very worried about this. His level was really far behind Tang Ze.
Next, Tangze continued to create hot spots and tried his best to squeeze the potential of the five songs.
The most popular one is undoubtedly that Tang Ze hired a group of men with slicked back hair to serve as Zhao Liying's backup dancers.
Because of his devilish and enchanting figure, and the fact that Karasawa guided several backup dancers to call himself a "high-quality man" behind the scenes, a new meme with the same name appeared on the Internet.
Because of this meme, someone was so busy that he counted the users of various barber shops and found that 48% more men had haircuts.
Almost half of people go to barbershops just to get a haircut.
At the same time, due to the popularity of the Internet, the order volume of ring tones has reached a new level, reaching 380 million, exceeding the previous estimate of 340 million.
However, due to rampant piracy, the potential ends here.
Soon after, Tianze successfully received a huge sum of 38 million yuan.
But it's not over yet.
Tangze arranged for several artists in the company to hand-write signed copies, and added some small items along the way to create a luxury EP album called "Tianze Divine Comedy".
In less than a month after its release, the album sold more than 150,000 copies.
Although it won’t be sold later, it still represents a kind of popularity.
You know, 5 songs are already pirated, but there are still people willing to buy them, which proves that fans really love them.
If there had not been widespread piracy, and if physical records were still at their peak, just selling records, maybe we could have sold close to one million copies.
This is already the appeal of the Uranus superstar.
So far, due to the impact of digital music, more than one million physical albums have been sold, which can be counted on one hand.
The four artists of the company are now very fortunate to have joined Tianze.
They might have been a little worried about offending Bona before, but how could they be afraid now?
A few casual songs that Tang Ze wrote made them extremely close to the top, but what about the movies that Tang Ze is better at?
Perhaps it’s just like Shen Teng’s evaluation of “This Man Comes from Earth” when he first joined——
A slap in the face!
A box office of 100 million yuan is just around the corner!
In short, they have expanded!
……
"No!" Looking at the short film shot by Wen Yishi and Guo Fan, Tang Ze shook his head: "Not qualified!"
He looked a little strict and said: "I gave you such a good script, but you filmed it so amateurishly."
"Don't talk about winning awards at film festivals, I won't be able to pass this test."
"If you don't believe it, I can put these two short films on Youku.com."
"I think netizens will only comment on two words, ugly, and four words, still ugly!"
Hearing Tang Ze's harsh criticism, Wen and Guo both lowered their heads in shame.
Apart from being ashamed, what else can they say?
They themselves also felt that the filming was not good.
If Karasawa hadn't wanted to comment, they would have destroyed the original film.
However, Tang Ze had a very poor opinion of the two of them, but he did not hesitate to praise Yang Yu's 3D animated short film: "I can see that you have prepared for a long time and are very careful."
"The level of this short film has surpassed many domestic animation producers. I can even let you be the producer of an animated film now."
Hearing this, Yang Yu couldn't help but swallow. He didn't expect Tang Ze to be so optimistic about him.
However, Tangze's next words made him still feel a little disappointed.
"However!" Karasawa sighed, "It's too far behind Hollywood's 3D production, and it's not even as good as some amateur producers back in the day."
"If we want Chinese animation to be accepted abroad, the current level alone is completely insufficient."
Seeing Yang Yu getting frustrated, Tang Ze encouraged him again: "Of course, this is not your problem alone, it is the problem of China's entire 3D animation technology."
"After some time, I will recruit a group of animation teams from abroad. You can learn more from them."
"I believe that in the near future, the animations we produce will also take the world by storm!"
After the three of them accepted the teachings humbly, they continued to practice with short videos, which made Tang Ze very happy.
Maybe it won't be long before the three of them are ready to go out,
After this evaluation, Tang Ze also gave clear indicators to the three of them.
As long as the short film they produce wins an award at the International Short Film Festival, they can officially take over the filming of a feature film.
Or, any short film they produce that can get more than 20 million views on Youku can also qualify.
This undoubtedly makes the three of them more motivated to continuously improve their shooting abilities.
In the following time, in addition to allowing the company's artists to continue commercial performances and expand their popularity.
Tang Ze is also considering how to spend 38 million.
The bank repayment deadline has not yet come, so don’t worry about it for now.
In order to maximize profits, Tang Ze invested money in game companies to develop new games.
He plans to launch "League of Legends", the future number one game IP, in advance.
To this end, Karasawa spent nearly one million US dollars to acquire Riot Games, which had not yet raised funds.
At this time, the company only had a dozen people and its future was uncertain, so it accepted Tangze's acquisition.
At the time of the acquisition, they were developing a DotA-like game called "World Heroes", but they lacked sufficient direction and funding.
Therefore, it has been more than a year since the company was established, and the progress has been almost non-existent.
But with Tang Ze's plan, they seemed to have an enlightenment, and the context became clear.
According to their commitment, the original "World Heroes", later renamed "League of Legends", can be launched as soon as November 2008.
Of course, during this period, Tangze needs to continue to invest sufficient funds.
If it is to reach the final version, the research and development cost is expected to exceed US$40 million.
And just for the initial version, 10 million US dollars is enough.
But even the initial version still puts a lot of pressure on Tianze.
If it were any other company, it would have raised funds long ago.
However, Tang Ze has no intention of diluting his shares. He will continue to be a dictator.
At the same time, Tang Ze's move to invest in games again finally attracted the attention of groups such as Tencent, Wangxiang, and Shengda.
Especially for Tencent. Although "CrossFire" has only been in closed beta for more than half a month, we can already feel the popularity of the game.
And "Dungeon and Fighter" is ahead of them.
After more than a month of internal testing, the number of online users has exceeded 1 million, and the monthly revenue has reached 7 million, demonstrating the potential of a popular game.
This made Tengxun feel that Tang Ze had robbed their food.
After all, Tencent has already set its sights on the Bangzi game market.
Perhaps, Tianze will face Tengxun soon.
Fortunately, the current size of Tencent is not as exaggerated as that of later generations, and it will not have any spare power to affect Tianze's business.
On December 12, the movie "The Name Certificate" was released.
The box office at midnight that night was 1.8 million yuan, and the box office on the first day exceeded 10 million yuan.
In just 8 days, the box office of "The Movie" exceeded 110 million yuan, and it is expected that the film will eventually exceed 200 million yuan, or even 300 million yuan.
Such rapid box office growth has shown the power of large investments, and has also led to more people watching Tang Ze's small-budget films.
This undoubtedly fueled Bo Na Yudong’s arrogance.
The morale, which had been weakened by the failure of the first step of publicity, rose directly to its peak.
This represents Yu Dong’s perspective on movies.
There are almost no mistakes in the movies he likes.
Even if the subsequent "Tou Ming Zhuan" suffered a serious decline, Yu Dong still believed that "Jiangshan Beauty" would be the king bomb that sniped at Tang Ze.
