Chapter 60 Premiere (4/5)

Is it against the law when I am doing business and people are playing bundled sales?

No!

If you think it is expensive, you can not buy it!

To put it another way, Douyin is currently the second-ranked app under ByteDance, second only to Toutiao, surpassing Xigua Video and Volcano Video.

The king of the short video track is Kuaishou now - the daily excess exceeds 80 million.

If Douyin wants to overtake on the curve, it is an excellent opportunity to acquire musical.ly!

Zhang Yiming said something about the acquisition of musical.ly, which can form a comprehensive content matrix mainly based on live broadcasts, short videos and news information.

"… Then do you think the $1 billion acquisition is worth it?"

"It's definitely not worth it!"

"How much does it offer on Kuaishou?"

"Su Hua (the boss of Kuaishou) felt it was not worth it and was ready to quit." Zhang Yiming added: "What I am worried about is that Teng Xun gets involved!"

"Fengxun...oh, Weishi short video..."

After thinking about it, he said, "Then just act like a break. It's just 1 billion US dollars. How much difference are we? I'll make up for it!"

After three days, Lu Xiaoran was already a little annoyed.

Business negotiations are really disgusting.

Deducting money...

Can't we win-win?

Make the cake bigger first...

Zhang Yiming shook his head: "The Internet field emphasizes 7:2:1. Whoever gets 70% of users first will be the leader of the industry. Then the market value after listing will be different!"

“…It’s so cruel, it’s almost the same as the movie industry…”

Lu Xiaoran nodded and looked at the three missed calls on his phone: "I'll leave first, I support everything you do..."

After patting Zhang Yiming on the shoulder, Lu Xiaoran quickly called back...

It was Chen Zhixi, and the phone contacted him was to make him hurry up - the Beijing premiere of "Wu Shuang" is about to begin...

The promotion of "Wushuang"...the main feature is Liang Jiahui and Zhang Ziyi...

Lu Xiaoran was so busy that he didn't have time to care about "Wushuang" matters.

Zhong Lifang and the others expressed their understanding - ByteDance is worth US$40 billion, and they don’t know how much Lu Xiaoran personally holds, but they must have a considerable shareholding!

More than just a small one, Lu Xiaoran personally holds more than 25% of the shares...

ByteDance directly added his value by 10 billion US dollars!

However, Director Lu is still concerned about "Wu Shuang"...

After all, since directing the first drama, every work he directed was hard to promote, running variety shows, roadshows, and hard marketing...

Get used to worrying...

Even though the theaters are optimistic, Liang Jiahui and Zhang Ziyi are enough to promote the publicity, he is still a little uneasy...

So, after receiving the call, he quickly drove to Beizhan.

The premiere of "Wushuang" is held…

When I got backstage, I quickly asked the makeup artist to simplify his makeup and then went on stage.

...

The premiere was similar, a group of reporters asked questions about related questions, and then Lu Xiaoran answered them one by one.

"I wrote a boss who made fake money in the play. He is the boss of the fake money group. He is both literary and martial, and his personality is a combination of angels and devils. This character is written based on my memory of Fa Ge. I believe that the audience will also have this feeling when watching it. If it is a young audience who has not felt Fa Ge's charm before, I think they can re-recognize and feel Zhou Runfa's charm through this movie!"

"Why do you want to film "Wu Shuang"? Is it because of the love of Hong Kong films?"

"I can't talk about feelings, I just want to make a movie about fake money..."

"How much time has this drama been spent from the beginning of creation? Can you briefly talk about the joys and sorrows of this process, and where most of your time is spent?"

"This story outline should have been out in 12 years, because I have been thinking about simplifying this story before, because it is a very complicated story, and I am worried that the market may not be willing to accept it... Then in the past few years, I have grown a lot. To be honest, sometimes it is not that the audience cannot understand it, but that you have not told the story well, and that the audience cannot be that stupid. Writing a high-IQ drama, not understanding it is your problem, and you make the audience not understand it."

"Now I should have enough skills to tell a complex story that will interest the audience and understand it! Then, I took a photo!"

"The theme of "Wushuang" is a rare counterfeit banknote on the market. Rare means that there are not many reference materials. How do you judge that this theme can arouse market interest? And how have you chosen the topic all the time?"

Lu Xiaoran frowned slightly: "Actually, I never think that subject matter is a problem. For me, I can shoot any subject matter, but the result is very simple, only if I take it well and don't take it well."

"I hope there is a movie like this in Chinese-language movies, so I did it myself."

"We are easily lost now. We suddenly see the success of a movie, and then we rush to say that it has selected a good subject, so that it can be successful. In fact, this is unfair to the movie. The reason why they can succeed is because they handle the subject very well, so that they can succeed. What we should be talking about is how to shoot a good subject, rather than what subject you choose."

"Then will you still shoot science fiction movies in the future? We have watched the list of films you announced, and it seems that there is no plan for science fiction movies?"

"I will definitely shoot it. I have always been interested in "Three-Body Problem"..."

"What do you think of "Sky Hunter"? "Wushuang" is scheduled for National Day. Do you want to teach a lesson to the new director?"

Lu Xiaoran looked at the media that asked this question - "Beijing News"...

"I have been busy dealing with private matters these days, and I haven't even been to "Longing for Life" I had booked before. How can I care about other movies? As for the lesson you told... let alone, "Wushuang" announced it was scheduled for this year's National Day in November last year. The Chinese film market is so big that it will not be buried in any good works!"

A little disgusting...

This is simply to create the so-called explosive point.

Lu Xiaoran suppresses the new director?

Is he wrong?

"Wolf Warrior 2" is not counted, but now I'm here to play "Wu Shuang" again?

Could it be a bit over?

"Are you worried that someone will imitate the details in the movie and create counterfeit money in reality after watching "Wushuang"?"

Lu Xiaoran smiled: "First of all, there is no possibility of imitating this version of US dollars in 2013!

If you want to use the methods mentioned in our play to make counterfeit money, it is OK, but the cost is very high. First, you need to have a printing machine. If you have a printing machine, it means you have a equipment for crime. But that printing machine weighs 6 tons. Do you want to bring it with you? Then how can you escape? It is impossible."

"What about your box office expectations?"

“…I have always said that it’s good that the box office can recover the cost. As a director, I only have so many requirements…”

"Have you ever thought about breaking the record of "Wolf Warrior 2"?"

"No, the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" is too high, almost touching the box office ceiling..."

The atmosphere on the scene was very good. In addition to asking questions from Lu Xiaoran, there were also asking questions from Zhou Runfa, Liang Jiahui and Zhang Ziyi...

"Wushuang" is really a gathering of big names...

But Lu Xiaoran said a lot, which was not as good as Yang Shoucheng's words: "We worked with the director, and he said that the artists he collaborated on must be patriotic artists, not those who are two-faced and three-faced actors..."
Chapter completed!
