No one expected that such big news would appear just after the Chinese New Year. Mubai Entertainment’s actions were so fast that everyone was caught off guard!
Especially when it announced the establishment of Mubai Cinema Line, it really shocked everyone.
I have never heard that Mubai Entertainment has a tendency to enter theaters, and there is no relevant news discussing this matter.
Mubai Entertainment is very famous now. If it acquires theater chains, it will definitely be in the news. It is impossible that there will be no news at all.
However, just so quickly, Mubai Entertainment was caught off guard and completed the acquisition.
Not to mention the general public, even Jiaxing Economic and other six major companies were shocked.
They are people in the industry and have not received any relevant news. It’s so sudden!
They originally thought that Mubai Entertainment might just have this tendency, which attracted their attention. However, after some investigation, they found that Mubai Pictures' theater chain is quite large, and many theater chains that were previously scattered outside have been privately acquired!
They knew about these theater chains, but no one had taken over them because of price issues. Unexpectedly, they were taken over by Chen Mubai so quietly!
This is really the first big news since the beginning of the new year!
Mubai Entertainment has made too many moves and has exposed their ambition. They want to become the eighth largest, just like Feifan Entertainment!
Everyone thought that Chen Mubai had been protected by the government and that the theaters would no longer deliberately target him, so he could rest easy. However, no one thought that he would secretly infiltrate Chen Cang and start entering the theaters himself!
It seems that he was prepared because of that incident and wanted to completely get rid of the shackles of others. This was to nip things in the bud.
People in the industry understand Chen Mubai's behavior, but this method is indeed a bit shocking, especially the investment in theaters. The investment in a theater requires a lot of money, let alone a chain of theaters!
Mubai Entertainment's current theater chain integration has been completed, and it seems that it has cost a huge amount of money.
But when they think about the profits from the 5 movies they produced, everyone is secretly sad. The comparison between people is so irritating!
The investment in each of these movies is not high, but the box office is as high as the other. This kind of high-return investment is higher than the return in the financial market, which is simply outrageous!
Indeed, for other companies, the acquisition of those theater chains may not be able to finance their operations, but for Mubai Entertainment, it is a small problem? Their capital flow is too rich.
Is every work a high-quality product? Whether it’s a movie or a TV show, it’s a big hit. It’s so easy to get the funds back!
Such a huge cash flow is the reason why Mubai Entertainment can complete these actions? Many people can only admire after thinking about it? A miracle that is difficult for others to create!
Even for a subsidiary like Feifan Entertainment, which is backed by large capital, are its entertainment and real estate industries separated after all? It is impossible to take unlimited money from the parent company to subsidize the subsidiary, and it is difficult to achieve the same method as Mubai Entertainment.
Subsidiaries also need to make profits on their own? Or come up with future plans so that the parent company can allocate funds for implementation? There are many difficulties.
Mubai Entertainment has no such concerns. It is the parent company itself and has huge funds. It can do whatever it wants. It has very strong execution power, so it takes many and fast actions.
When everyone started to look at Mubai Films' theater lines, they discovered an interesting thing, that is, some of the theater lines that originally belonged to Starway Entertainment were planned to be under Mubai Entertainment's theater lines!
In other words, Starway Entertainment sold some theater chains to Mubai Entertainment!
"What's happening here?"
"There used to be a Starway Cinema near my home, but now it has been replaced by Mubai Cinema? It makes me laugh to death."
"So, does Starway Entertainment have an old love for Chen Mubai? Did it deliberately sell it to him to make Chen Mubai rise?"
"Case solved? It turns out that we all wrongly blamed Starway Entertainment, tears in our eyes~"
"Haha? Does this mean that Celebrity Cheng Entertainment is having a hard time? That's why it chooses to give up some unprofitable industries."
"I hope Chen Mubai will work harder? Push Starway Entertainment to the edge of bankruptcy, so that he can take revenge~"
After netizens discovered this situation, they started discussing it like crazy.
Starway Entertainment was once again whipped to death. During this Chinese New Year period, everyone at Starway Entertainment was not having a good time. They were in the process of being whipped to death every day.
Even employees can see the ridicule of their company on the Internet, which makes them somewhat unable to hold their heads up. Even when relatives ask them about work-related matters, they dare not say that they work at Starway, but say
in entertainment companies.
Starway Entertainment is like a villain, everyone wants to kill it, even the employees dare not express their identity and position...
It has to be said that Starway Entertainment has ruined its popularity among the public, and even its employees feel embarrassed. From this moment on, many people have thoughts of leaving their jobs.
There are also some people who regret it very much, they are the people who switched jobs from Mubai Entertainment.
When Starway Entertainment used a scheme to frame Mubai Entertainment, they went there specifically to poach people, and some people switched jobs. Now that they see Mubai Entertainment developing so well, they feel unspeakable regret.
At first, they thought that Mubai Entertainment was going to be doomed, so they chose to leave Mubai Entertainment and jump to Starway Entertainment. Who knew that there would be reincarnation in the way of heaven, but now the situation is reversed, Starway Entertainment is going to be doomed...

"Only people pay attention to Mubai Pictures and no one pays attention to the other news? Chen Mubai acquired Starlight Animation. Is he going to make animation?"
"No, is it for children again? I no longer want to watch children's animations like "Wolf and Sheep"..."
"Hey, it's not that domestic animations are bad, it's just that they are for children and not for adults. When I watch animations, I always watch foreign ones. Movies like "Monster" are all adapted from comics. Really
Interesting~”
"Yes, Japanese animation is really good-looking, very passionate, and it also talks about friendship, love, master-disciple relationship. This kind of animation is the same as TV series and movies, but it is shown with animated characters. I hope that the Chinese animation can
Develop rapidly and create some animations that can be watched by us adults!"
“I don’t know if I’ll be able to see adult animation in my lifetime…”
"Brothers, does Chen Mubai just want to make adult animation? Otherwise, why would he enter the animation industry with great fanfare? I don't think he will make children's cartoons. His film and television works are quite meaningful. I feel
Maybe it’s because I want to develop Chinese comics that I changed the form of expression..."
Those who discuss these topics are ordinary animation fans. Although the number of people is much smaller than that of film and television. After all, animation is not real people and there are no stars. There are fewer people who follow stars. But everyone is a loyal animation lover and is very sticky.
.
Compared with Chen Mubai's other actions, they pay more attention to the animation industry.
There are also some people who are engaged in the animation industry themselves. This is a career closely related to them, so the attention will be higher.
However, no one has high expectations, after all, this is not something that one person can change.
The overall animation level in China is not high. Although there is a large number of potential people, the soil is not good. At present, children's animation is still the main focus in China, which is also the main direction of several other large animation companies.
Children's animation peripherals are very profitable. Toys and books are all things that children like to buy. Children's animation makes money. It does not have high requirements for special effects and plots and has great business opportunities, so everyone is making money from children.
There are also companies that have tried to produce adult animation, but unfortunately they failed. In addition, the investment was huge, and they had to find good painters, including special effects and plot production, etc.
It failed in the end, suffered serious losses, and no one made it anymore.
After all, good animation requires a huge investment, and it is for adults after all. The plot is ridiculous, and if the special effects are poor, you will be severely complained about. It makes no money and does not gain a reputation. Over time, everyone gave up. This is why there are no Chinese comics so far.
reasons for its development.
After all, this is still an industry with relatively large capital investment. It is difficult to make money quickly, so capital has given up.
It is easier to make money in other industries and the risks are smaller. Why should we consider a high-investment and high-risk industry like animation?
Even if you make a bad movie and hire a popular star, it will create a fan effect. It is still less risky than animation!
No matter what, at least someone is willing to enter this industry, which will have a certain promotion effect on the industry. What's more, Chen Mubai himself is a person with a very good reputation and deserves everyone's trust.
Many people who love animation have given their blessings to Mubai Entertainment and hope that their animation business can be successful.
...
Starway Entertainment.
"Mr. Gao, several more employees have resigned today, one of them is the management, and two of them are old employees..."
The vice president reported the company's status to Gao Jin with mixed emotions.
"I know." Gao Jin rubbed his tired eyes.
"Follow the formal procedures. If the senior management can stay, please stay for a while. Please give me more advice."
"good."
Since the Spring Festival, many employees have offered to resign.
At the beginning, they didn't pay much attention to it. After all, it was normal for a company to have people come and go.
Unexpectedly, more and more people were leaving gradually, and even the usual atmosphere became tense.
Some people are leaving one after another, and there are also old employees. This has greatly deepened the uneasiness of other employees and made them fear. Is the company going bankrupt?
After all, it is not that there is no relevant news on the Internet, and many netizens hope that Starway will go bankrupt.
The resignation of old employees has the greatest impact on the company. If nothing happens, why would old employees leave their comfort zone?
People like to stay in a comfortable place, which can be regarded as nostalgic. If you leave your job, you will have to start new interpersonal relationships in a new place, which is far less comfortable than staying in the old place.
Although the company clarified that this was a rumor and even issued a lawyer's letter to warn netizens, it is an indisputable fact that the company's recent series of works have failed and theater chains have been sold off, which has deepened the uneasiness of employees.
A large number of employees resigned, which in turn led to some wavering people who also proposed to resign.
People who work hard in society have a keen sense of crisis. They can share wealth and wealth but cannot share adversity. They really require employees and companies to tide over difficulties. There are very few such people.
People with this kind of character can be said to be grateful or have a good personality, but those without this kind of character cannot be said to be bad. After all, they have to eat, so don't shiver.
"The shareholders want you to come over now."
"knew."
After the vice president left, Gao Jin stood up and walked towards the conference room.
He knew that the reason why the shareholders were looking for him was simply because of the company's recent problems and that he needed to take responsibility, but there was nothing he could do.
However, he is the general manager after all and is responsible for the company's operations. He still needs to give an account to the shareholders and be responsible for these things.
In fact, since he took over the company, he has not made any major wrong decisions, but the company is still in decline.
The main reason is that Chen Mubai's incident was too hurtful, public opinion was one-sided, and Xingcheng's reputation was completely ruined.
In addition, Chen Mubai's rapid rise instantly slapped them in the face, which put Xingcheng in an awkward position, and was constantly being targeted by Chen Mubai, making it difficult to fight back.
