27、【27】(1/2)
Father Xu now no longer regards his daughter as a heartless fool who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun.
Xu Yan’s investment received dividends, and the real estate industry enjoyed the benefits. If we look deeper, Xu Zhaixing’s contribution to all of this is in it.
My daughter has been smart since she was a child. She has taken first place in exams every time. While others are still memorizing the multiplication table, she can already do mental arithmetic. When others start to learn word problems, she is already doing Olympiad math.
So when her daughter awakened her amazing business talent when she was in high school, Xu's father did not feel that there was any violation and happily accepted this unnatural setting.
Who lets his daughter follow him and be excellent?
As soon as he heard what Xu Zhaixing said, he knew that she must have another idea.
In fact, he didn't want to give up on Xingchen. Xu Zhaixing was right. It was his hard work for decades and he started it step by step from scratch. Now he can just let it go. How can he be willing to do so.
Isn't there no way around it? We started losing money last year, and all of this year's projects were taken away by new companies. The company laid off employees one after another, and now only a few old employees are still supporting us. A few days ago,
Submitted my resignation.
He was helpless, but seeing Xu Zhaixing's determined face, he sat down patiently and asked, "Tell me, how can I save him?"
Xu Zhaixing rolled his eyes: "I want to go stay with cousin Xu Yan for a month during the summer vacation."
Xu's father: "...We haven't even said the solution yet, and now we're starting to talk about terms?"
Xu Zhaixing looked like what can you do to me: "Just tell me whether you agree or not. If you agree, I will help you rescue Chenxing."
Xu's father raised his hand and knocked her, feigning anger and saying, "Am I your father or your enemy? Tell me quickly!"
She pouted, sat cross-legged on the old man's chair, and organized her words before asking: "Dad, do you know how many TV series the entertainment industry shoots every year?"
Xu's father said: "I don't know where to go."
Xu Zhexing said: "According to incomplete statistics, there are three hundred and sixty-five days a year, and there are crews starting production every day. We don't count the ones with small investment and no splash, only the big productions with big stars participating and millions of dollars invested."
, there are at least twenty movies every year. And even if we watch TV at home every day, how many movies can we watch in a year?"
This data shocked Father Xu, and his expression became serious.
Xu Zhaixing continued: "This is just TV dramas, excluding movies, variety shows, music programs, auditions, news, there are only so many TV stations, and only a few popular provincial stations, how many movies and TV dramas are competing for the top spot every year
If you want to become a star, the last one we can see is already the chosen one. The domestic entertainment industry will only become more and more prosperous. If this trend continues, have you calculated how many works the producers will accumulate every year that cannot be released?
"
The fog in Father Xu's eyes gradually dissipated: "What do you mean..."
Xu Zhaixing nodded: "They must, and will definitely, look for a new platform. And new media video is their only way out."
Father Xu pondered for a while: "I understand what you are saying, but there are too many video platforms on the market now. Xingchen has not thought about keeping up with the development, but the impact and competition are really too great, and many platforms have already established themselves.
, I’m just starting to develop now, it’s too late…”
Xu Zhaixing smiled: "When an industry is broken, reorganized and re-developed, it will inevitably spring up everywhere, but the area and nutrition are limited. Now the entire video industry is too chaotic and fierce. In a few years, it will inevitably become an oligarchy.
"
She said slowly: "Why is the entire industry now a new media? Because there is no cost, as long as someone can make a website, he can fish in troubled waters. For example, if the audience wants to watch a TV series, they can watch it on this platform.
You can also watch it on that platform. If you search for the title of the drama, it will be all over the Internet. Which platform the user chooses depends on his mood. But what if it is only available on this platform?"
Xu's father looked at her in surprise, and Xu Zhaixing shrugged: "So ultimately, it's still a copyright issue. The current copyright awareness in China is too weak, and many people don't realize that it is illegal to commercialize other people's works for free.
. And only those who are aware of copyright issues and are willing to spend money to maintain copyright can finally gain a foothold in this industry."
She crossed her legs and felt a little numb. She changed her position and her tone became much more relaxed: "Besides this fundamental reason, the key to the development of the platform lies in the divergence of new ideas. For example, adding real-time barrages, live broadcasts, and Blu-rays that are not available on other websites.
High-definition picture quality. For example, in addition to mainland dramas, we can introduce some popular dramas abroad, Thai dramas, Korean dramas, Japanese dramas, animations, British and American dramas, and buy the copyrights of all these. Refined sections and categories to give users the best viewing experience
Movie experience. In two years’ time, when there is a hit drama or variety show in China, we will immediately win the exclusive rights to broadcast it online. Will we still worry about not having users at that time? Once users are obtained, advertising and sponsorship will follow one after another.
Aren’t you going to go back to Xingchen’s old business?”
She concluded: "When you grow up, eat the small fish and shrimps on the market that deserve to be eaten, and merge those that cannot be eaten. Once the market share is stable, who can touch you?"
After Xu's father heard what she said, he didn't say anything for a long time.
Xu Zhaixing didn't panic. He held the fruit plate and ate the fruit, waiting for him to digest it slowly.
For a long time, Xu's father looked at her with difficulty: "How can you hold so many things in your head?"
Xu Zhaixing winked at him proudly: "Of course, the whole universe is in my head."
Xu's father smiled and patted her, and the light in his eyes that had been extinguished finally lit up again.
He pondered: "You are right, it is not too late, the platform must be implemented quickly."
Xu Zhixing took out his mobile phone and opened a web page and handed it over. He smiled slightly to hide his merit and fame: "That's not necessary. This entertainment video company is about to close down. It is in a hurry to sell it recently. How about you take it over?"
She has been paying attention to news in this area for a long time. This video platform is most in line with the current requirements of Xingchen in terms of scale and technology.
Father Xu stared at her for a long time, and finally asked: "Your grades in the final exam dropped by five points this time. Isn't it because of these things?"
"How can that be possible?" Xu Zhaixing said, "That's because my Chinese composition went off topic."
Father Xu: "..."
Xu's father didn't know anything about the media like real estate. Xu Zhaixing made it so clear that if he didn't know what to do, he wouldn't be worthy of being called "Mr. Xu."
Within two days, Xu's father negotiated the acquisition plan with the person in charge of Entertainment and went to City B to sign the contract.
Xu Zhaixing rescued Xingchen, and the reward was to go to Xu Yanna for a month during the summer vacation, and then happily board a plane to city B with her father.
Xu Yan hadn't seen Xu Yan's father for almost a year. After picking them up at the airport, he arranged for board and lodging. Xu Yan's father was going to discuss the acquisition, so Xu Zhaixing stayed at Xu Yan's house.
Fang Feidi went to the company with Xu Yan.
After not coming for a few months, the eldest lady's prestige gradually faded away. Only Zhao Jinjin thought about her every day. When he saw the group message saying that the eldest lady had come to the company, he rushed to the company after making the announcement.
When he arrived at the company, Xu Zhaixing sat in Xu Yan's office and looked at the schedules of the company's artists in recent months to see if there were any projects that were destined to hit the market so that they could be taken down in advance.
Halfway through the movie, I heard Zhao Jinjin ask Xu Yan's assistant through the door: "Is the eldest lady in there? I bought her milk tea."
As soon as the door opened, Xu Zhaixing prepared a hug in advance and looked at her excitedly: "Ah, my money tree is here!"
Zhao Jinjin: "..."
Am I just a tree in your eyes???
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Zhao Jinjin said, "You seem to have grown a little taller."
Xu Zhaixing said: "You seem to be a little tanned."
Zhao Jinjin put his hands on his hips: "Look at how many announcements I make every day and how many variety shows I appear on! How can I not be black?"
Xu Zhaixing squeezed her shoulders and said with a smile: "Thanks to our hard work, we have become a cash cow. Haven't you always wanted me to be your makeup and hair stylist? I will follow you wherever you go in the next few days and make you look super beautiful.
!”
Zhao Jinjin's face lit up with joy, then she thought about something and then drooped again: "I don't need makeup or hair for the last half month of the trip." She said regretfully: "Didn't I participate in that dancing variety show hosted by Zhongtian?
, the condition they came to me with was that the male partner should lead a new member of their company, and he has been going to their company to practice dancing in the past half month. He is covered in sweat from the practice, and he needs no makeup or hair."
Xu Zhaixing was surprised: "We actually cooperated with Zhongtian?"
Zhao Jinjin cleared his throat and imitated Xu Yan's tone: "There are no eternal enemies, only eternal win-win interests. Since they are extending an olive branch, there is no reason not to accept it."
Xu Zhaixing: "...You are quite similar to what I learned from my brother."
Zhao Jinjin said proudly: "Of course, I am influenced by what I hear and see."
Xu Zhaixing's little mind started to come alive, and he asked casually: "Where is the address of the dance practice? I heard that they have several branches."
Zhao Jinjin reported an address, which was the trainee building where Cen Feng was located. I guess that was the only place in Zhongtian that had a spacious and well-equipped dance practice room.
She couldn't hold back her joy, and she said calmly: "It's okay, you don't need makeup or hair, I will accompany you, buy water and run errands for you, to repay you for working so hard to make money for me!"
Zhao Jinjin's eyebrows were filled with joy: "That's okay! I'll pick you up first tomorrow morning, and we'll go there together."
It was decided that early the next morning, Xu Zhaixing tidied herself up. The little girl who was always bare-faced rarely painted her eyebrows and put on some light-colored lip gloss. Then she sat in the living room and waited for Zhao Jinjin to pick her up.
.
Xu Yan came out with breakfast, glanced at her a few times, and suddenly said: "I suggest you not to let Cen Feng see you and Zhao Jinjin together."
Xu Zhaixing almost spit out a mouthful of milk: "Who...who said I was going to find him!"
Xu Yan ignored her at all and continued: "His attitude towards Chenxing is so repulsive. Once he finds out that you are also related to Chenxing, he may suspect that your previous approach was of evil intent."
Xu Zhaixing was stunned, he really didn't expect this level.
Indeed it is.
Her appearance was inexplicable. Although she did have the purpose of signing him to Chenxing, she couldn't tell him that it was because you would die if you stayed in Zhongtian any longer and I was here to save you, right?
From Cen Feng's point of view, once she knew that she was from Chenxing, all her previous actions became ulterior motives.
Xu Zhaixing felt so disappointed that he didn't even want to eat breakfast.
Xu Yan said leisurely while spreading peanut butter on toast: "Don't go, follow me to the company to do homework."
The phone vibrated twice. It was a message from Zhao Jinjin, saying that the car was arriving downstairs and asking her to go downstairs.
Xu Zhaixing was bored for a while, fighting between heaven and man, and finally convinced himself: "Isn't it okay if I don't let him see me?"
Xu Yan: "..."
