It is a place that is changing with each passing day and full of surprises.
Some people become famous overnight, from being unknown to becoming a household name, and then there are people who stand at the top and then suddenly fall because of some things...
The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front, and the waves in front hit the beach.
This sentence is really suitable for the entertainment industry.
Throughout 2003, the sales of various physical albums have begun to decline, while online traffic has become more and more fierce day by day...
Every fool knows that in the future, the network will gradually replace the physical world. This is an inevitable general trend and trend.
Just like rock and roll used to be!
Although……
It is possible for someone like Wang Hao to be popular for a while, but it is basically impossible to form another era.
Many big companies have sensed this, so they began to try to cultivate young talents. The era of traffic is also the era of appearance. As an artist, it doesn't matter if your acting skills are poor or your singing is average, as long as you are pretty enough.
If you are handsome enough, there will always be someone who will pay for your looks!
The trend in the face-reading era is becoming more and more obvious!
These companies give them exposure through various channels and at the same time give them the resources they deserve!
At first, the effect was not bad. A large number of fans of both sexes appeared among the young freshmen. These fans are crazy. As long as it is a movie made by their idol, they will buy tickets to support it. Even if the movie is poorly made, they will support it.
…
At least the opening box office won’t be too bad!
2003 should be the time when young people are fighting.
But……
After all, 2003 is not the world of little fresh meat.
The imagined traffic era has indeed slowly arrived, but it is not the era of young people.
In 2003, when traffic stars first emerged, the little fresh meat did not really become a phenomenon. Instead, Lu Yuan crazily dominated the headlines and various news information in the entertainment industry, which completely suppressed the little fresh meat for a whole year.
Year……
All the movies that feature Lu Yuan are basically doomed!
In 2004, the trend of the network traffic era has become more and more obvious.
Although Lu Yuan is still making headlines after two months of silence, many companies are also cultivating their own young talents, hoping to get a piece of the pie in this coming era.
You cannot be the protagonist of this era, but at least you cannot be the bystander of this era.
This is the thinking of most entertainment companies.
Of course, the same is true for Joaquín.
The Joaquin Conference Room is brightly lit at night.
"As for the album, Wei Lai will also be released, and Han Lu's movie will be released in more than a month. Preparations for the promotion of this movie will begin... and Juno's album will be released together with "Remote" Zhao Xiaohan
, this album, we have to save some face..."
"Okay, I understand."
"Then, this is the plan for the second half of the year..."
"Um……"
"Well, I know."
"..."
In the conference room.
After Xu Cancan arranged all Joaquin's work, he quietly watched everyone leave.
She has been sitting and browsing various news and hot topics on the Internet...
Although "Dream Traveler" was considered a success at the box office and earned good revenue, some of Joaquín's popularity suffered due to the "box office stealing" incident.
At this time, Joaquin needs to make some adjustments in terms of reputation, and at the same time, he needs to make some achievements to stabilize some temporarily unstable situations.
Based on some past analyses, Xu Cancan understood that Tianyu was actually the most insidious one hiding in the dark.
Although he is the boss of the entire Chinese entertainment industry, he is also the most scheming.
"Lu Yuan...is this era your era?" Xu Cancan Xu Cancan rubbed his temples and sighed slightly after seeing Lu Yuan's shameless advertisement in front of the camera.
She didn't think Lu Yuan was a shameless person. Instead, she felt that Lu Yuan had officially announced that his company was no longer that obscure leather bag company!
At the same time, he also announced his layout and ambitions.
He has never been willing to make such a small fuss, and he has never been satisfied with headlines or traffic...
Maybe everything is just a means to him.
No more doubts!
He really joins the fight!
He wants to become the master and controller of this new era!
"But you are still a little hasty and a little early in announcing now."
"If you do this, you will undoubtedly become enemies of most companies in the entertainment industry."
"Your time has not yet come! Your "remote" background is really not enough. You can experience failure, but your company cannot experience a real failure!"
"Unless...you..." Xu Cancan closed his eyes.
You can keep winning!
Xu Cancan added this sentence in his heart.
…………………………………………
There is calm after the hustle and bustle.
However, there is a hint of turmoil hidden within the calmness.
Many things have gradually begun to become chaotic.
Lu Yuan didn't know why, but his left eye kept flashing messages.
Then, not long after, he received a call from Hollywood. Life in Huaxin over there was very difficult.
Even the word "difficult" is not an exaggeration.
In the past two days, the tax bureau and various local units in Hollywood came to the company at regular intervals to investigate and collect evidence. At the same time, many gangsters often came to the company to cause trouble, shouting and causing trouble.
Some people reported tax evasion by the "Huaxin" brothers company, while some people "reported" the company for abusing minors, and some "reported"...
After "Huaxin Brothers" was exposed that the company was owned by Lu Yuan, countless negative news and news from all aspects followed.
At the same time, I don’t know when a series of calls for boycotting and blocking Lu Yuan began to appear on the Internet. Even many theaters that had cooperated with the "Huaxin" brothers began to announce at this moment that they would no longer cooperate with the "Huaxin" brothers.
"The company cooperated.
Everything pushed "Huaxin" into an abyss from which it could not extricate itself.
Lu Yuan fell silent immediately after listening to Forrest's complaint.
Of course, he was not surprised.
He knew this was inevitable.
To a certain extent, Hollywood is indeed xenophobic. Chinese artists are sometimes bullied in Hollywood, let alone a small company with Chinese people behind the scenes.
The negative news brought about by the exposure is actually very scary. Although Lu Yuan doesn't know a lot of things overt and covert, there are definitely a lot of things like ghosts, ghosts, and snakes.
The "Huaxin" brothers are really too weak, as weak as an ant. If the eight major entertainment companies in Hollywood are to squeeze them out, it will be really hard for them.
This directly affects many things.
evening.
Lu Yuan received a call from Hollywood again.
"The boss... is checking our company's running accounts again, and now he comes to us once a day... If this continues, all aspects of our company will really not be able to bear their "visits"..." Forrest's voice sounded
He looked very haggard, with a trace of helplessness at the same time.
Describing the feeling of fatigue: "The crew formation of "The Pianist" has been delayed... It may not be realistic to shoot in Hollywood... Even if the shooting is completed and we want to release it in theaters, they will probably make things difficult for us.
...We are too weak after all!"
"Forrest, is the situation over there just that bad now?"
"Ah?" Forrest was stunned when he heard that it was just so bad.
He didn't understand.
"Is it just that most theater chains have announced that they will not cooperate with us, and so many people are coming in and out?"
"yes."
"Their ultimate goal is to put our company out of business?"
"Well, if we can't make movies, if we can't survive in Hollywood... let's get out of Hollywood!"
"Are there any theater chains that support us?"
"It was there yesterday, but not today. Maybe they were warned by other companies..."
"Oh, Forrest, I understand. You should have a good sleep at night. These are just small things."
"Ah? This... boss, you have a way..."
"have."
"oh."
Is there any way?
In fact, Lu Yuan lied.
Lu Yuan actually had no idea what to do.
Hollywood itself is a behemoth. It can thrive in China. After all, it has its own advantages in the country, but its foundation in Hollywood is too weak.
How is it possible to compete with a behemoth?
You're talking about James, the so-called friendly relations in Andorra?
These relationships are completely unworkable at this time. After all, no matter how famous they are, they are also part of Hollywood.
When most of Hollywood rejects a small company, then the small company will definitely not be able to bear it.
Of course, although Lu Yuan lied to Forrest, he didn't panic at all, and didn't even feel a trace of sadness or discomfort.
His mentality was actually very good, even somewhat inexplicably calm.
What's the worst ending in Hollywood?
It's because the Hollywood company went bankrupt.
What's the point of closing down?
Is it a big loss to Lu Yuan?
In fact, if you carefully calculate the loss, it is really not that big.
Anyway, there are only about ten people in the company in Hollywood. If they can join us, let them come to China to develop first. If not, then let them do whatever they want.
Not a big problem...
etc!
You said the market in Hollywood is a pity?
If we don’t work with entertainment companies anymore, why can’t we work with other industries?
You can always handle the takeout and restaurant business on your own, right?
What a big deal!
If Hollywood doesn't allow itself to open a restaurant, will it ruin its own restaurant?
I am the Pacific Police. Do you have such lenient control?
What kind of money is not earned?
And if you ask me to go bankrupt and you want to mess with me, I will go bankrupt immediately. At worst, I will do it again, register a new company and continue to fuck.
What a big deal.
It’s mainly a matter of theater chains…
This is a problem.
Forget it, let's talk about tomorrow's matters tomorrow.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuan read some information, then yawned and walked towards the bedroom on the third floor, intending to have a good sleep.
At this time, Wang Jinxue came down.
"Are you okay?"
"It's okay, I'm fine, what's wrong?"
"I heard something happened over there in Hollywood..."
"A little thing." Lu Yuan yawned again and waved his hand: "Let's talk about it tomorrow..."
Wang Jinxue looked at Lu Yuan's back silently.
Lu Yuan...
He is always the kind of person who holds on to death.
Even under so much pressure, he still acted nonchalant.
…………………………
early morning.
"Jinxue..."
"What's wrong?"
"Being a theater chain seems to be quite profitable."
"What do you want to do?"
"I didn't want to do anything, just...well, I just wanted to know the information about the theater chain...I suddenly discovered that your theater chain doesn't have a branch in Hollywood..."
"No...the theater chain has just been built not long ago, and it is not considered a first-tier theater chain in China. How can it be possible to build a branch in Hollywood, and many things are not adapted to the climate..."
"Oh oh oh." Lu Yuan nodded suddenly.
"Lu Yuan, what bad ideas are you planning? Don't even think about poaching my father's corner!"
"Jinxue, who do you think I am? Am I so shameless? I am a gentleman!"
