Chapter 321: Billions of Dollars Invested in the Film and Television Industry
At the press conference, Lu Man, Yang Rou and Meilijie appeared together.
As the company's executive director, Lu Man did not wear her usual overly glamorous clothes, but a black women's suit. She even deliberately put on makeup to look strong and professional.
The media invited this time were all invited by Yang Rou and Song Chuang, including major media websites, and some large newspapers and magazines . But they were all friends they had known for many years, so as to avoid leaking the news in advance.
In addition to maintaining confidentiality, the purpose of doing this is to ensure that the entire press conference is under the company's control.
The press conference began. Lu Man sat in the main seat in the middle, with Sister Meili and Yang Rou sitting on her left and right.
She tapped the microphone and said confidently, "I invited you all here mainly to announce an important plan of our company..."
"Because the group is very optimistic about our company's performance during this period, and is even more optimistic about the future of the domestic film and television industry. Therefore, it will further increase its investment in our Morning Dew Pictures."
"For the development of the domestic film and television industry, we at Morning Dew Pictures have decided to use this money for the entire industry. We will launch a film and television development plan called the [Chaoyang Plan]."
"We plan to invest 10 billion yuan in real money in the next five years to achieve mutual benefit with the entire industry and invest, produce and distribute various film and television projects."
“Whether it is film and television companies, or talented producers, directors, screenwriters, and actors, they can share projects with us, submit projects, or sign up to participate in this program.”
"No matter how big or small the project is, we will provide relevant support, salary, hire personnel, and produce films at 1 to 5 times the industry standard."
“In addition, we will use our resources to distribute and promote these film and television projects.”
"This time, we held a small press conference in advance to announce this to the outside world."
"Next month, we will hold a large press conference to further explain the Chaoyang Project. On the same day, we will also release the first batch of shortlisted TV series and movies."
Even though the reporters present had already expected that this secret press conference would yield some big news, when they actually heard the plan, they were still a little shocked for a moment!
Invest 10 billion!
1...5 times more salary!
For all companies and practitioners in the industry...
Isn’t this a bit too generous?
A reporter immediately raised his hand and asked, "Hello, Ms. Lu Man. I would like to ask. You said that the first batch of projects have been launched. Excuse me, has this plan been secretly carried out for a long time?"
Hearing the reporter's question, Lu Man nodded slightly and said, "Yes. That's right."
"As early as two months ago, we reached cooperation intentions with hundreds of companies in the industry and decided to share resources to produce and distribute related projects."
"In two months, we selected seven movies, one variety show, and three TV series."
"The projects have almost been finalized. This will be the first list of the Morning Dew Project."
Hearing Lu Man's words, everyone present couldn't help but look at each other.
This really shocked everyone!
Without making any noise , Morning Dew Pictures had secretly set up such a big scheme!
Two months ago, everyone knew about Lu Man’s celebration party, which invited almost 90% of the companies in the industry.
At that time, I just thought those companies were giving face to the Zhao family, but I didn’t expect that they actually reached such an agreement in secret!
A reporter raised his hand again and asked, "Hello. Ms. Lu Man, in what capacity do you participate in the production of these dramas? Do you have to be the heroine?"
Lu Man smiled and said, "Of course not. For most projects, I will only appear in the behind-the-scenes list as a producer and producer."
"But if there is a role that suits me, I will certainly take it without hesitation!"
"After all, I love acting, and I hope I can be involved in good film and television projects."
Listening to Lu Man's "tactful" words, the people present, while silently complaining, also lamented Lu Man's bad luck!
This female star has been out of control ever since she hooked up with that young rich man!
She made a hit movie, won the Best Actress award, and now she’s received such great support!
Hundreds of billions of investment, 1...5 times the salary, grab the project!
In the next five years, won’t Luman be the one to choose the projects in the domestic film and television industry?
Which female celebrity is so arrogant to bring in money into the crew?
This is simply like casting a net to catch all the "fish" in the entertainment industry, and then letting Lu Man eat them as he pleases.
It's totally a dimensionality reduction attack!
While sighing in their hearts, people at the scene continued to ask questions about the [Chaoyang Project].
During the entire press conference, Lu Man was answering questions most of the time, while Sister Meili and Yang Rou supplemented the questions.
This phenomenon was also noticed by the people present, and someone raised his hand to ask about Lu Man's current position in the company.
Yang Rou and Lu Man also told them the truth that in addition to being the boss of the agency, Lu Man is also the executive director of Morning Dew Pictures. As the representative of the company's shareholders, he participates in the formulation of the company's strategy and supervises the company's daily operations.
This made everyone present sigh again that Lu Man’s identity was indeed different from before, and was even completely different from the celebrities in the circle.
Other stars, even if they are first-tier stars and have opened their own studios, are still subject to the company's management and have to obey the arrangements of the head office.
But Lu Man has become a shareholder, and is above the general manager Yang Rou, overseeing the company's operations...
Judging from the strength currently demonstrated by Chenlu Film and Television, the power she possesses is one of the most powerful in the entire circle.
She is already a real big shot, and can be called Sister Man by most people in the circle...
Soon, the press conference ended.
As the press conference came to an end, relevant information from the conference was quickly leaked, which resulted in a polarized situation.
There are many more project promotions and news reports about the Chaoyang Project on various portals and Internet websites.
Many netizens are curious about how effective this plan will be and how many good movies it will produce.
And within the circle...
More than an hour ago, those in the industry who were still mocking Lu Man for banning Xu Brothers Pictures fell silent for a moment after hearing the news about this press conference...
Invest 10 billion yuan over five years.
Investing in and producing hundreds of film and television projects, and all of them are settled at 1-5 times the salary and benefits of those in the industry.
We have reached cooperation intentions with hundreds of film and television companies in the industry, and the first batch of projects have been finalized, and we are officially recruiting our own projects in the industry.
Whether you want to invest together, submit a project, get production fees, or want to participate in these projects, you can come to Chenlu Pictures!
How big is the entire film and television industry?
Calculated based on the box office revenue of movies, the total box office revenue of domestic films last year was only 30 billion!
Even if we include variety shows and TV dramas, the maximum revenue would be 50 billion.
This is revenue, not production cost!
As a result, now, Chenlu Pictures is going to invest tens of billions in production costs to boost the film and television industry!
How many opportunities and developments will this bring?
The film and television industry is huge, but also small. At least for many giants, it is just a small branch of entertainment. Therefore, it has not been taken seriously by the giants before.
And now, the wolf is coming...
If other companies made such announcements, saying they would invest billions and increase salaries, people might not care, thinking they were just empty promises or bragging.
But don’t forget that Morning Dew Pictures fulfilled all its promises last year amidst everyone’s laughter.
At the beginning, the earliest practitioners who followed Morning Dew Pictures, and even those who participated in it later, all made a fortune!
And now, Chenlu Pictures is trying to use the same method again to increase its investment in the film and television industry.
This credibility is full.
All practitioners can even foresee the current situation of the film and television industry in the next five years: if there are good projects and good scripts, try Chenlu Pictures first, and if they don’t agree, look for other companies.
This is simply a way of forcing the market by burning money!
At this time, everyone couldn't help but think of the ban order issued by Lu Man a few hours ago.
Ban the Xu brothers, their related projects, and artists, and refuse to cooperate with the Xu brothers.
This ban, which seemed like a joke a few hours ago, now seems particularly powerful.
Although the Xu brothers are large in size, they don't invest in many projects every year, and most of them are digested internally. They only look for practitioners in the industry to form a crew. Generally speaking, you may not meet them once every few years.
But Morning Dew Pictures is different...
There are hundreds of projects, so many opportunities, and the salary is high.
This... seems like if I participate in the Xu brothers' project, I will lose a lot of opportunities.
Thinking of this, people in the industry even felt sorry for the Xu brothers: Why did they offend Lu Man when they could have offended anyone else? Instead of banning him, they were banned. They are dumbfounded now, right?
While the circle was in an uproar and everyone was considering taking sides, the protagonist of the incident: Lu Man, was sitting in the car, humming a song and playing with his mobile phone, rushing to Chen Yan's house.
