Chapter seven hundred and sixty seventh Starway Entertainment's turnaround
Mubai Entertainment.
Chen Mubai and others were still filming "Prison Break" in the United States. This time he brought not many people, only some crew members. Many of the staff for the on-site shooting were hired from companies in the United States.
Lu Fang and others gathered together to chat.
Li Feng asked: "What's going on with Mubai in the United States?"
"Are you still used to it?"
Lu Fang laughed and said: "What's not something I'm used to? I have to shoot every day, or I'm just preparing, not going on vacation."
"The current popularity of "Prison Break" is unprecedented. It has become one of the most popular American TV series in the United States. It has a certain degree of popularity around the world and has many fans."
"The number of users of international video websites has increased a lot, which is a good thing."
Lu Fang looked at Ma Dong and said with a smile: "Mr. Ma, your investment in Weiyu this time is right."
Ma Dong smiled and said: "That's for sure. We have always believed in Director Chen's ability, and the cooperation between us has always been very pleasant. There is no reason not to trust him."
"Is your next plan to continue shooting film and television works for foreign audiences?"
Ma Dong looked at Lu Fang and wanted to know their evolution process.
Weiyu is aware of the rough planned route. This has been discussed between the two parties before, but Weiyu is not sure where Mubai Entertainment's current plan will go.
"Yes." Lu Fang nodded.
"The next step will be for our works to be released simultaneously in theaters in the United States. Now "Prison Break" has opened up a part of the market. Many people have seen our capabilities, so we will not be suppressed as severely as before."
Several works released in American theaters are of good quality, with good reputation and good box office. Coupled with the hit "Prison Break", the name of Mubai Entertainment has initially appeared and gained a firm foothold in the United States.
It is no longer that unknown company, and with its influence, other people's attitudes towards it will also change.
Just like the arrangement of works, everyone will also give some preferential treatment to Mubai Entertainment. They have proven their abilities and are able to make money. Naturally, resources will be tilted. This is based on interests.
"Have you encountered any trouble?" Li Feng asked.
"Trouble..." Lu Fang frowned and shook his head softly: "I have never heard Mu Bai say these things. Even if he had, he would not tell us that there is very little we can do on the other side of the ocean.
He won't let us have more troubles, and he will solve the problems himself."
Li Feng nodded: "That's right."
"We can't take it lightly," Ma Dong said.
"Our company has suffered a lot along the way. When any industry expands, it will cause resistance."
"Every successful person will occupy some resources and arouse jealousy. We cannot be careless. "Prison Break" is popular and Director Chen is famous. Will it arouse the hostility of American celebrities?"
"You know, the people there have a serious sense of superiority, especially if Mr. Chen is from China. If he competes with them for food in their country, the other party will not be indifferent."
Lu Fang looked serious and said: "What Mr. Ma said makes sense, I will remind him to pay attention."
"However, he doesn't have any hobbies, so he is not easily plotted by others."
Li Feng laughed loudly: "Yes."
Ma Dong knew the reason for their laughter and praised: "Indeed, there are too few people like him. That is why he has his current status and influence."
There are many celebrities who like to have fun, and if they have fun in private, their opponents may do what they want, such as going to bars or nightclubs, taking some photos, and then randomly compiling some news. This has a great influence on the stars.
Even if the content is untrue, it is still convincing if there are photos to prove it. Netizens will express doubts and even believe the content.
This kind of confusing news is most likely to arouse discussion, and once it becomes popular, its influence will expand.
No matter what the truth of the matter is, there will always be people who don't believe it, and their goal will be achieved.
What's more, they directly send people to seduce, and then backhandedly accuse them. This is a blatant fairy dance. The star has been tricked and cannot tell the pain.
Because the thing is true, everyone will only pay attention to what you did, but not why you did it, or why you took the bait.
Even if you are being scammed, then the question is, why did you take the bait?
Isn’t it because of my improper private life or poor moral character?
Lu Fang was quite relieved about this aspect. Chen Mubai was not the kind of person who played around.
When he was not famous or not well-known, a lot of girls and fans threw themselves into his arms, but he remained unmoved.
After becoming famous, there are still many celebrities, socialites, and even rich second-generation girls who want to get close to Chen Mubai, but they are all rejected by him.
If an American entertainment company wants to use this method to deal with Chen Mubai, it will be useless at all.
Well, to put it bluntly, even if some tidbits about Chen Mubai come out now, his fans won’t believe it, and neither will domestic netizens. The only ones who may be shaken are foreigners.
Because Chinese people know Chen Mubai so well, similar news has appeared before. An Internet celebrity wanted to get in touch with Chen Mubai, and deliberately posted pictures of him participating in the announcement, and then photoshopped a photo of himself and him, but no one believed it. Instead, he was scolded.
At the first time, no one believed it, but later it was revealed that the photo was a composite, and netizens immediately kicked it off the Internet...
It can be seen that the public does not believe in gossipy news like Chen Mubai.
Just like someone in China now jumps out to question Chen Mubai's talent, whether in music or film and television, I'm afraid everyone will treat him like a clown and won't agree with him at all.
Although Lu Fang was relieved about Chen Mubai, he was wary in his heart. After all, the United States is not China, and there are still some dangers there. What if others use special means?
Therefore, Lu Zang made up his mind to remind Chen Mubai to pay attention to everything and strengthen security issues.
...
Starway Entertainment.
"Mr. Gao, Chen Mubai's "Prison Break" has been brought back to life!" the subordinate reported to Gao Jin, somewhat indignantly.
“I really didn’t expect that in just a few weeks, the reversal was completed!”
"Why......"
Originally, Chen Mubai's move into the international market made them a little happy. They felt that Chen Mubai was looking for death. Although he became a top superstar in China, his company did not become the eighth largest in China, and his influence was limited.
We haven't even conquered China's entertainment market, but we have to conquer the American and international markets?
This is something that even the Big Seven dare not do. Although everyone covets foreign markets, they dare not do it because it is too difficult!
Domestic and foreign cultures are two different cultures. It is too difficult to use Chinese culture to conquer foreign countries!
They themselves were unable to take revenge, but when they saw Chen Mubai's decision, they were very happy. Maybe they could see them return from killing their feathers abroad?
For a time, they were very concerned about Chen Mubai's affairs.
Even for movies that are big hits in China, there are not many movies scheduled in the United States and the box office is not high. They are a little happy.
Until "Prison Break" was released, the momentum was still very small, and there were few broadcast channels. No matter how you looked at it, it was a failure.
As for conquering American audiences by relying on the quality of their works, it’s impossible!
Starway executives don't think Chen Mubai's screenwriter can conquer them. After all, American dramas are so developed, and all kinds of imaginative and excellent works are emerging one after another.
Secondly, Chinese culture is different from American culture, so the scripts written will naturally be different.
Will the American people like to watch scripts like "Let's Get Married" and "Struggle"?
Not to mention the plot, the people of the two countries have different thoughts and attitudes towards things. How can they produce a work that the other party likes?
This is not music. Chen Mubai can conquer the audience with melody. Film and television works are real culture, related to the cultural education and influence received by people everywhere.
Chen Mubai has never lived in the United States, will he understand the culture there?
Expect to be able to produce works that the American people will love in just a few months of contact?
This is no less difficult than winning the first prize in a lottery ticket...
When "Prison Break" was met with failure, everyone was very happy.
Considering that Chen Mubai has made such a big splash internationally before, and his works are not paid for by other parties, it shows how difficult this road is to walk.
However, they were not happy for long before they were dumbfounded again.
"Prison Break" took just one week to counterattack!
This scene is so familiar...
The faces of everyone in Xingcheng just felt so painful...
Gao Qiang sighed deeply: "We lost so miserably that we had no chance at all."
"Now Chen Mubai is no longer on the same level as us. When he establishes a foothold in the United States, those of us who have enmity with him will have a hard time."
In the past, although Chen Mubai was living in China, his reputation was not that big, and there were people above him who could hold him down.
But once Chen Mubai's trip to the United States succeeds, the meaning will be different.
Chen Mubai's importance in the eyes of the country has risen again. I'm afraid that if he takes some extraordinary measures, the country will acquiesce.
Because he is the only person in these years who can promote Chinese culture to the world, and he can succeed!
If he really establishes himself internationally, the top seven domestic universities will have nothing to do with him, and promotion to the top eight universities will be a sure thing.
How can a company that can export culture overseas be inferior to the top seven companies in China?
In fact, in just a few years, Mubai Entertainment will become the largest entertainment company in China!
Now, behind Chen Mubai are two behemoths, Micro Entertainment and Tao Group. No one will dare to offend Mubai Entertainment in the future. Even Jiaxing will have to take a detour.
"I can only pray that he fails..." the vice president muttered, with an ugly look on his face.
"Is there anything we can do?"
Gao Jin shook his head and said, "No."
"Not to mention that Chen Mubai's popularity in the country is now unmatched. Even if you make up some news, no one will believe it."
"More importantly, at this point, the country will support him. If we make many mistakes, we will be in trouble. We can only pray that Chen Mubai can focus on Zhengtu International and let us go."
"Or maybe he comes back and gets hit in the United States, so we can take a breather."
"However, judging from the current situation, it should be very difficult. The rise of "Prison Break" is unstoppable."
At the end, Gao Jin's tone was very calm, as if he was explaining something that had nothing to do with him, and he had given up.
"Dong dong dong!"
While the two were talking, there was a sudden knock on the door in the office.
"Come in." Gao Jin was a little surprised.
"Mr. Gao, Mr. Zhang, a big event just happened in the United States!" The employee's tone was urgent, but there was excitement in his voice.
"What's wrong?" The two looked at him curiously.
"Someone over there in the United States is making trouble against Chen Mubai!" his subordinate said excitedly.
"!"
"?"
The two of them felt a little confused for a moment as to why they suddenly got into trouble.
Just now they were discussing the possibility of Chen Mubai returning from killing Yu, and now this happened?
Has things turned around?
"Tell me in detail!" Vice President Zhang said eagerly.
"Some singers in the United States jumped out to criticize Chen Mubai, saying that his songs were plagiarized, including the moonwalk! Others said that Chen Mubai's songs were not entirely his own. Someone helped, but he crossed out that person's name.
