Heiner can be said to be one of the most profitable companies in Hollywood in recent years, whether it is the Pirates of the Caribbean series, the Fast and Furious series, or the Evil Dead trilogy, etc.
In short, whatever movies Heiner makes will be hits, and whatever movies he invests in will explode at the box office. Even investing in cartoons that many people are not optimistic about now can make a lot of money.
But compared to the huge profits that make people envious and jealous, Heiner's fame and influence in Hollywood are extremely embarrassing.
If another Hollywood company has a performance like Hainer, even if it only has half of Hainer's performance. Those are definitely the hottest stars in Hollywood, and all kinds of big-name stars must be flocking to visit in person to ask for contracts.
But the Heiner Company, which has such explosive performance, does not have a single superstar in Hollywood. That's right, none. The newcomers with great potential who have been signed through the draft in recent years are all struggling in the middle of the second line. Even if there is an occasional one who enters the first line, he is still at the bottom of the first line, let alone an international superstar.
In Hollywood, Heiner is like a singer who is popular but not popular, and a star who is popular but not popular. His songs and movies are obviously well-known across the galaxy, but he is like a passerby with few people knowing him.
The reason why it is so embarrassing is naturally the result of the joint blockade by those Western capitals. I can't help you make money. After all, those are legal investments. Yang Dongxu also pays attention to paying taxes. It's better not to break the rules of the game and become a gangster directly.
But you want fame and fortune, sorry! I can't stop you from making money for the time being, but if you want to increase your influence in Hollywood or in the world's entertainment industry, this is still the decision of Westerners. You, an Oriental, can't control this for the time being.
When Liu Zongsheng arrived, he went directly to Yang Dongxu's home without going anywhere else.
Cui Ma left the living room after serving tea. Looking at Liu Zongsheng who was excited and eager to try, Yang Dongxu directly poured a basin of cold water on his head.
"Michael and I are friends. In two days, Michael is going to hold a press release to explain the current situation and help promote traditional Chinese medicine."
A Michael was his friend and immediately blocked Liu Zongsheng's words. His big boss knew it well. Definitely not the kind of person who drags his friends into the water.
Yes, if Michael helps Heiner stand up in the international entertainment industry, he will be dragged into the water by Heiner. Because there is an unspoken rule in Hollywood or the entertainment industry controlled by Western capital.
That's because Yang Dongxu's investment vision is too strong. They really can't avoid this unstoppable advantage, so they can't avoid it. So if you make money, you make money, and they will follow suit and make a little bit too.
But you want the artists you have signed or other artists you collaborate with to become international superstars. While making money, I also want to expand my influence.
NO!
This is absolutely not allowed, and these big Western capitalists see it all too clearly. Don’t you have a good eye for which movies will be popular, and which variety shows will be popular and profitable?
Then just make money honestly. They don't believe that your investment vision has been so accurate throughout your life, and you won't lose money by betting in the wrong direction in the future.
But the influence of the entertainment industry, or the power of the entertainment industry, is a solid and iron-clad camp. As long as this camp is in their hands.
No matter how much money you Haina make now, it is destined to be just water. After this limelight, who will know who you Haina is. The entire entertainment industry is still in their hands and there will be no change.
"Then my trip was in vain?" Liu Zongsheng was speechless.
There was no way to drag the big boss's friend into trouble, so the other party decided to help promote traditional Chinese medicine. And traditional Chinese medicine is one of the core focuses that the big boss has always adhered to. Now that the front and back are blocked, what else can he say?
"After all your hard work, you can report on your work." Yang Dongxu looked at Liu Zongsheng amusedly, with a look of helplessness and nowhere to vent, full of bad taste.
Liu Zongsheng simply rolled his eyes this time. If it weren't for the fact that his big boss' status was too high and the company's authority was too great, he would have wanted to give him a middle finger.
Only those with mental illness would fly from Yanjing to Shanghai to report work in a hurry. Wouldn't it be nice for a person to be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people at Haina Corporation in Yanjing?
"Be careful with this expression, I will deduct your salary." Yang Dongxu gave Liu Zongsheng a sideways glance and threatened.
After the threat, I felt that it was a bit childish for this man to continue his childish mischief. So I picked up the tea in front of me and took a sip, "Let's give up the traditional business model of film and television, variety shows, and relying on superstars to attract traffic for the time being.
After working in Hollywood for so long, there has been no progress except making money. Those capitals have long blocked the road we are going to take and have built a steel dam. You cannot succeed in breaking through in areas that they are familiar with or even control. "
"What should we do next?" After a special trip, nothing was gained. Liu Zongsheng's dialect came out as he didn't know what to do.
"Online media, or new media. Then non-core areas such as animation and games have been expanded.
Especially in the field, don’t you feel that the West is too poor in variety and content? One Harry Potter is regarded as a god. In fact, Harry Potter is really popular in China. He may not be as popular as those on the Internet hot list.
Don't be fooled by some amazing works or authoritative Western fantasies promoted by the Western media. When it comes to imagination, the richness of fantasy content, and the passion, nothing is more in line with the tastes of today’s young people than the Internet.
In recent years, as long as Huaxia Network has been successfully translated, it will definitely sell well in the West, which also illustrates this point. And then there’s anime and stuff like that.
You have to understand that although people from different regions, different countries, and different cultural backgrounds have different interests, hobbies, jokes, or other aspects.
But YY’s ideological race is common to both Chinese and Westerners. By seizing this commonality and making them happy, we will have the secret to victory. "
"you mean?"
"After cultivating IPs for so long, it's time to pick out one or two to make blockbuster films that will surprise those people. This time, we want to let those people know that not only can we eat fruits, but we are actually good at growing fruit trees. When the orchards are full of people Our fruit trees, do we need to say whose orchard this is?"
"But if you want the movie to be a big hit, the main actors still need Hollywood stars, and then the director and distributor...this..." Liu Zongsheng feels that it is not a good time to incubate these IPs. After all, he takes the initiative The rights still belong to others.
Now I feel like I have worked hard to plant peach trees, but others have picked the peaches.
"Don't just look at the present, look at the future. We said that all the orchards are our fruit trees, and then the orchards are ours, so we let them pick the peaches in the first two years, as long as the trees are ours."
