Chapter five hundred and seventy seventh costume drama
What Chen Mubai is doing now is to divide their cooperation from the inside, recruiting some groups to fight against others, so that they are no longer monolithic and there are gaps within them.
In this way, in the future, the other party will not be able to deal with him together.
What he needs most is time, and he must be given some time to develop. This is why he will compromise.
Otherwise, given his character, it would be impossible to cooperate with those people. This is just a temporary compromise at this stage.
In other words, even at that time, the six major forces would work together to deal with him again, but at that time, he firmly believed that he had already developed and would no longer be as easily contained as he is now.
Several of the partners Chen Mubai found for cooperation were companies with theater resources. In this way, Mubai Entertainment's movies would also receive preferential treatment if they were released in theaters in the future.
After all, the entertainment company affiliated with the theater chain is also involved in the production of the movie. The performance of the movie is closely related to them. For the sake of profit, they will also give preferential treatment.
The most important thing is that Chen Mubai's ability is so outstanding and his ability to attract money is very strong!
The performance, reputation and reviews of the first film are all outstanding, and it is certain that the next film will be a hit.
Cooperating with Chen Mubai will definitely make money, why wouldn't they do it?
In addition, Mubai Entertainment's development prospects are good, and there will be a lot of profits in the future. At least the recent works will definitely make money. It's just a question of how much.
When the six major organizations are no longer integrated, the pressure Chen Mubai faces will no longer be so great.
In order to prevent himself from being subject to the same restrictions in the future, he has decided to secretly develop theater resources by himself and slowly acquire private theaters and small theaters outside. When the scale is about the same, it will be the time for Mubai Entertainment to rise!
At that time, he will no longer act based on others' opinions as he did before, and the six major forces' suppression of him will no longer be a threat!
This matter must be carried out secretly. Premature exposure will arouse the vigilance of the Big Six, and they may even rush to buy theaters to prevent Mubai Entertainment from becoming bigger.
Many of the theater chains that are still outside the country are small theaters in third- and fourth-tier cities. The Big Six do not care about the market there. Some of them are because the prices of theater chains in first- and second-tier cities are too high, and acquisitions will be more disadvantageous. Therefore, there is a formation of
A delicate balance.
If they knew Mubai Entertainment's plan, they would definitely pay a certain price to compete with him, making it impossible for them to complete the matter, and even make it difficult due to bidding issues.
For the acquired theater chain, what everyone values is profit. The one with the highest price will get it. Others will not play with your feelings. Profit is the only criterion for measurement.
Chen Mubai is now working hard to make money, just to achieve this goal, first make Mubai Entertainment bigger, then enhance his own influence, and then slowly push more works abroad, so that Chinese culture can go to the world.
Although it is simple to say, it is difficult to do. The difficulty is not just one or two.
Fortunately, Mubai Entertainment is walking on this road, and the prospects are still very good.
...
Both Shen Meng and Starway Entertainment became jokes.
For what Chen Mubai said in the interview, Starway Entertainment was once again pulled out by netizens and beaten to death.
They were all sarcastic words, [Such talented artists have been hidden away, Starway does have a way of doing it], [Starway has so many talents inside, Chen Mubai has no chance to stand out].
[What do you know? If it weren’t for Starway Entertainment, could Chen Mubai be forced to learn this? Then we wouldn’t be able to see it. Thank you Starway Entertainment!]
There are many ironic words and direct mocking words.
The same goes for Shen Meng. She previously publicly stated that "Buried Alive" would not work, and that Chen Mu was trying to make money for nothing. As a result, he repeatedly slapped her in the face, and her personal WeChat account has been banned from leaving messages.
Huiying Entertainment, like Jiaxing, stopped all activities against Mubai Entertainment.
It is useless now and can only wait for future opportunities.
At first, because of Qin Li's album, Huiying Entertainment and Mubai Entertainment publicly disclosed their conflicts. This is normal and the two sides are competing.
However, Huiying Entertainment did many things behind closed doors, and Mubai Entertainment didn't know about it.
But for Chen Mubai, it was the same. They were opponents anyway, and he would take action against them if he had the opportunity.
Starway Entertainment has become a joke not only among netizens, but also among people in the industry.
After all, everyone has seen Chen Mubai's achievements in the past two years, but Starway Entertainment pushed such people away, and everyone has been laughing at them secretly.
At the beginning, Starway Entertainment was one of the best among medium-sized entertainment companies. After these events in the past two years, its influence has been reduced a lot, and the company's strength has also been reduced a lot.
Chen Mubai's several attacks caused Starway Entertainment to suffer heavy losses. What's more important is not the profits but the plummeting reputation. This is the biggest blow to a company.
Many newcomers will not choose to join Starway Entertainment. They are also afraid that they will become the next "Chen Mubai"...
Chen Mubai's incident and behavior had a huge impact on Starway Entertainment. This was not a one-time event, but had a long history and had a subtle impact on the company.
"Cheung Yaohui really deserves to die!" the current CEO lamented at the shareholders' meeting.
Zhang Yaohui stepped down, but when he came on stage, he was greeted by a mess. With Starway Entertainment's current reputation, it will be difficult to turn around in the past few years.
Many fresh graduates are unwilling to join the company, and even if the salary is increased, it is difficult to attract them.
Generally speaking, people who can take this route in the entertainment industry come from pretty good families, and there are very few of them who are poor. They all started out as actors from a young age and will not become trainees in a company.
Trainees are trained from a young age, or they come from major film and television academies, and they learn singing, dancing and musical instruments from an early age. With such conditions, the family conditions are naturally not bad, and they will not block their future just for the money of three melons and two dates.
This makes Starway Entertainment very passive. Coupled with the rise of Mubai Entertainment, if there are people from Mubai Entertainment, there will be no people from Starway Entertainment. This is a choice between two options. Judging from the current trends, Everyone knows how to choose...
Starway Entertainment not only lost talents and some resources, but also faced the deadline for previously signed artists, and some were unwilling to renew their contracts.
Under such circumstances, when the new general manager takes office, he has no choice. It is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
"Avoiding the edge for now, Chen Mubai is currently at his peak."
"Yes, the first two times their TV series deliberately blocked us, it had a huge impact on us. Even the investors and producers were a little dissatisfied, thinking that we had affected the performance of the work."
"Chen Mubai has become so popular recently. His works have attracted a lot of attention. The key is that the quality of each work is good and it is difficult to compete with them. We should avoid their works in our works, otherwise they will continue to target us."
"It's hard to handle. You can't just hold on to the work after it's finished..." someone said with a headache.
"Try to find gaps in their works to be released, the most important ones are works related to Chen Mubai."
Whether it's the script or the director being related to Chen Mubai, it's worth noting. After all, it's just labeling him. If it had nothing to do with him, that would be better.
What they fear is Chen Mubai, not Mubai Entertainment. They are really a little afraid of Chen Mubai now!
"It's easy to handle. You can find out this kind of thing if you ask around. Recently, Mubai Entertainment has reached a cooperative relationship with several of the six major companies. There is still no problem with the news. Chen Mubai is completely avoided."
"The development of Mubai Entertainment is getting better and better. I'm afraid that in a few years, there will definitely be an all-out war between Chen Mubai and us." When this topic was mentioned, everyone's expressions became frosty.
This is inevitable. Judging from Chen Mubai's current methods of dealing with Starway Entertainment, he will not let them go.
"Investment is particularly important now. Try to invest in the works of well-known directors and high-quality works." Someone said.
The implication is to find connections to participate in the production of some works. At the beginning of the production of many works, everyone knows the quality of the work. They can get a glimpse of it from the investment, actors and production companies.
There isn't much they can do, they just want to try their best to get through this difficulty. As time goes by, everything will get better.
Time is the easiest thing for people to forget things. As long as they get through the current difficulties, their company's future development will be no problem.
No matter how powerful Mubai Entertainment is, it is impossible to completely surpass them in just a few years, so there is no need to be afraid of war.
For Starway Entertainment, Chen Mubai is only a future threat, and their biggest threat comes from the present.
"Try to keep the existing stars as they have certain resources themselves," someone said.
"I will try my best." The current CEO nodded.
Part of a celebrity's resources comes from the company, and part of it comes from their own personal connections.
This is also the reason why many celebrities can go out and open their own companies and studios after becoming famous.
In the process of becoming famous and working, you will come into contact with people from all walks of life, so these accumulated connections are a kind of resource, and there will always be opportunities to use or exchange them.
Just like Chen Mubai, he has a good relationship with several TV stations and has appeared on their programs. If he now wants to go to the other party's program, the other party is willing to cooperate with him. This is the resource he has accumulated.
...
Half a month has passed, Chen Mubai returned to the Magic City, and the promotion of the movie has come to an end.
"Brother Lu, are things done?" Chen Mubai came to Lu Fang's office and asked with a smile.
Lu Fang told him before that when he was still running the trip, things were almost ready.
"Well, Chen Yunteng and Ji Yuxuan followed your wishes and let them make their own works. Your assistant director is still Wang Hao, who previously made "Buried Alive"."
"But are you sure you want to make a TV series for your next show?" Lu Fang asked.
He knew that Chen Mubai was not in a hurry to make movies, and he agreed. Indeed, if the two movies were too close, it would be too easy for others to compare them.
No matter how slowly a movie is shot, it will only take a year to complete it. Basically, if it is not a blockbuster, it will be faster. As for the movies with a lot of special effects shots, they are all science fiction movies. There is not such a big investment in China, and neither does Mubai Entertainment.
I would make this kind of movie.
The investment is too big and the risk is too high. They have just entered the film industry, so naturally they will not shoot it.
"Well, this time we are filming a costumed Machiavellian drama, we are also going into a large-scale costume production." Chen Mubai replied.
"Oh?" Lu Fang looked surprised.
There are generally two types of costume dramas. One is historical drama, which follows the official history and then adds some filler based on the characters to be filmed and what happened in history.
This kind of photography is either about the life of a character or about the wheels of history.
Another type is fictional history, which is to make up a story that is not official history and has nothing to do with history. However, this history may follow the style of a certain dynasty, which is considered an adaptation and will not be so serious.
