I Won a Prize of 100 Million at the Beginning, and I Became a Capital Boss

Chapter 253 A New Generation of Kung Fu Actress Bai Xiaolu! (On the last day of the month, ask for a monthly pass!)
After dealing with Hengdian's affairs, Zheng Wentong returned to Puhai.When Bai Xiaolu filmed "Ode to Joy", she filmed the location in Jinghai City, but she only stayed there for half a month.She will live in Hengdian for a few months this time, and she is somewhat uncomfortable because she has been separated from her boyfriend for too long.

Bai Xiaolu felt a little surprised, because when she was working as an online model in Hangzhou, she had already adapted to living alone.As a result, it didn't take long for Bai Xiaolu to separate from her boyfriend this time, and Bai Xiaolu was quite uncomfortable.

After Bai Xiaolu expressed his miss for her boyfriend on WeChat, Zheng Wentong, after consulting Wan Jie's opinion, sent Wan Jie to Bai Xiaolu's side to take care of Bai Xiaolu's life.

Bai Xiaolu is full of energy in an instant, don't be too happy playing with her girlfriends Yang Zi and hehe.When a girl plays with her boyfriend, she definitely doesn't have fun with her best friend, and vice versa.

After returning to the company, Xu Ru reported the recent work situation to Zheng Wentong.Crowdfunding has completed a single 200 million angel round of financing, led by IDG Capital.

Xiong Xiaoge recognized Zhang Yi's personal ability. When IDG Capital invested in interconnection, he had contact with technical director Zhang Yi several times.Although Crowdfunding belongs to the slope system, it can only be regarded as an affiliated company of the slope system. In the subsequent rounds of financing, slope investment will gradually complete the exit and transfer of equity.

Weike Xinke’s B round of financing has not yet been finalized. The two major investment institutions Ali and IDG Capital hope that the slope investment can merge Tik Tok from the slope investment into Weike Xinke, which will help increase the overall valuation of Tik Tok.

In exchange, the two main shareholders, Ahri and IDG Capital, agreed that Weike Xinke would pay USD 6 million for the acquisition to Slope Investment. Tik Tok would naturally become Weike Xinke’s overseas subsidiary, and its overseas revenue business could also become Weike Xinke’s overseas subsidiary. New highlights on the financial statements of the Branch.

Slope Investment bought Tik Tok for US$6 million, and Weikexinke bought Tik Tok for another US$6 million.It seems that it is just an overall equity transfer of Tik Tok, and there is no loss for Slope Investment, but Zheng Wentong will not easily satisfy the wishful thinking of IDG Capital and Ari.

Zheng Wentong’s acquisition of TikTok was funded by a billion-dollar loan from Li Chaoren’s family, and Zheng Wentong also provided part of the equity of Blue Star Games as a pledge.The financial cost of billions of dollars a year is also tens of millions of dollars.How could Zheng Wentong agree to Wei Kexinke's original purchase of Tik Tok?

Moreover, if Tik Tok is merged into the name of Weike Xinke, although the overall valuation of Weike Xinke will be pushed up, it will not be conducive to the development of Tik Tok's overseas business.Because the mainland's Internet regulatory policies are different from those in Europe, America, Southeast Asia, South Asia, and the Middle East, Zheng Wentong must develop a promotion method tailored to local conditions in order to help Tik Tok better promote to other countries and regions.

After the merger of the overseas version of Weiyin and Tik Tok, Tik Tok currently has more than 1 million overseas users, Li Ziqi’s Tik Tok account has more than 500 million fans, and Bai Xiaolu’s Tik Tok account has 100 million fans.

There are two main reasons why Bai Xiaolu's fans can break through the million mark. First, Forbes magazine said she is the richest actress in Asia. very high.

Many overseas media have described Bai Xiaolu as a new generation of mainland Kung Fu actress. "Los Angeles Times" commented that Bai Xiaolu is the successor of Michelle Yeoh, Maggie Cheung and Zhang Ziyi, looking forward to Bai Xiaolu's new work.In the impression of foreigners, we Chinese all know kung fu, just like we think that people in Sichuan Province have a giant panda at home.

Bai Xiaolu also recorded a video to thank the overseas fans who followed her, answered the questions raised by the fans in English, and won another wave of fans for her.

Zheng Wentong said to his girlfriend: "When you were studying, you majored in tourism English, and you didn't even work as a tour guide for a day. You probably didn't expect that your English would be useful at this time, right?"

Bai Xiaolu takes this very seriously, knowledge will never be useless, it will always show you its value at a certain stage of your life that you did not expect.For overseas fans, there is still a big difference between fluent English and stumbling English.

Bai Xiaolu answered the fans' questions, she doesn't know kung fu, this sword kicking action can be mastered by everyone after a long time of study, the main reason is that Mr. Zhao Wenzhuo taught it well.The five Tik Tok accounts that Bai Xiaolu followed were Zheng Wentong, Zhong Lifang, Li Ziqi, Ito Cai and Li An, and Li An also closed Zhong Lifang, Bai Xiaolu and Zheng Wentong.

This move is very meaningful. When a reporter interviewed Zhong Lifang and asked whether Ang Lee was the director chosen for the movie "The Leading Heroine of the Pony Pony", Zhong Lifang practiced Tai Chi, "We are in contact with many directors, besides Ang Lee, there is also Russell. Dude, Spielberg, etc."

The inner OS of the reporters was like a galloping horse, "Why don't you say that you also got in touch with Cameron and asked Cameron to shoot this movie?"

The reporter asked about the name of the heroine movie, and Zhong Lifang replied that it was not confirmed yet, but the heroine played the ancient heroine Hua Mulan.

When the reporter asked whether the actor who played Mulan was Bai Xiaolu, Zhong Lifang began to go around in circles again, "When our company makes a movie, the first thing we look at is whether the actor fits the movie, and it has nothing to do with the identity of the actor."

"We chose Ma Li as the heroine for "The Richest Man in Tomatoes", director Xue Xiaolu chose Tang Wei as the heroine for "I Want Us Together", and Zhao Jinmai for "The Wandering Earth". Lord, we will announce it to the public as soon as possible," Zhong Lifang said.

Zhong Lifang knew Zheng Wentong's plan, and after Bai Xiaolu won the Magnolia Award for Best Supporting Actress in the first half of the year, Galloping Horse took advantage of the opportunity to announce that Bai Xiaolu would become the heroine of "The Story of Mulan".

"The Story of Mulan" was filmed from the second half of 17 to the first half of 18. At that time, I will go to the northwest region to shoot exterior scenes. There will also be a grand scene of nomads confronting each other. Thousands of extras will be used. The cost of shooting is of course not low.

For Galloping Horse, the filming of "The Legend of Mulan" should be done well, and it is not worthy of praise, after all, the capital investment is so large.But if the word-of-mouth is overwhelmed, Zheng Wentong, Bai Xiaolu and Zhong Lifang will receive overwhelming negative reviews.

Zheng Wentong can't avoid the negative comments from a capricious capital, it's also difficult for Bai Xiaolu to receive suitable film resources, and Zhong Lifang also needs to take responsibility for the box office failure of "Mulan".

The publicity and release of a movie is a long-term and long process. From the project approval of the script, the formation of the team, the promotion of the group, and the release, it is necessary to maintain a certain exposure rate to maintain the popularity of the movie.

Movie fans actually don't care which actor the capital favors, their requirements are very simple, no matter who you want to praise, first of all, if the movie is good, if the movie is not made well, then don't blame the movie fans for cursing.

If Zheng Wentong doesn't plan to work in the entertainment industry in the future, it doesn't matter even if "The Legend of Mulan" pounces. After all, his main business is investment and the Internet.But if Zheng Wentong wants to manage Galloping Pony well, the word-of-mouth of movie fans is still very important.

For example, Zheng Wentong arranged for Bai Xiaolu to play Qu Xiaoxiao in "Ode to Joy", and PK defeated Wang Ziwen, who later collaborated with Wang Kai in "If a Snail Has Love".

But "If a Snail Has Love" was a mediocre drama, but Qu Xiaoxiao, played by Bai Xiaolu, was particularly outstanding. Fans of the drama have already begun to look forward to the second season, and can't wait to see the reunion of Ode to Joy and the five beauties .

After Yang Zi knew that Bai Xiaolu would star in "The Legend of Mulan", she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She knew that she should not be jealous of her best friend Bai Xiaolu.

After Yang Zi finished filming "Sweet Honey, Ashes Like Frost", Yang Zi will immediately partner with Li Xian to star in the urban drama "Dear, Loved", which is also an S-rated TV series.

According to the investment cost of the TV series, the lineup, and the broadcasting platform, the two dramas "Sweet Honey" and "Dear, Loved" can send Yang Zi to the top actress position and become the No. 90 post-1s floret .

However, there is still a big difference between movie cafes and TV cafes. Yang Zi’s film resources have always been unsatisfactory. In fact, she is also very envious of Zhou Dongyu’s ability to star in many movies. Just Ma Sichun’s Golden Horse actress is enough for Yang Zi to envy for several years. .

The entertainment industry's requirements for top actresses are nothing more than two points, a big heroine who can resist drama.Top actresses must be good in TV dramas, and the roles of cooperating male actors are generally not as good as hers.

Being able to resist dramas means that the TV dramas she starred in must have high topicality and popularity.No matter how good the word of mouth is, at least a lot of people are required to watch it. If there are no people watching it, no matter how good the word of mouth is, it will be useless, and the film studio will have no way to make money.

The second is to be an actor who can bring fire to cooperate.Because it is a major female lead drama, fans of the drama will recognize Yang Zi, no matter if Yang Zi cooperates with Gong Jun or Li Xian, if he can act in a drama and make a cooperating actor popular, then he is qualified to say that he is a top-notch actor actress.

For example, after Yu Shuxin and Wang Hedi collaborated on "Canglan Jue", they collaborated with Zhang Binbin on "A Little Forest of Two People", but the popularity of the latter is far less than that of the former.

The crew of "Cang Lan Jue" revealed that Wang Hedi and Yu Shuxin were in love because of the drama, and they were a real couple.

However, this CP binding was too successful, so the ratings of Zhang Binbin and Yu Shuxin's new drama can only be said to be unsatisfactory. Yu Shuxin and Wang Hedi can only clarify their relationship to the outside world, saying that they are very good friends.

Yu Shuxin collaborated with the show crew and Zhang Binbin to promote "Little Forest of Two People". Wang Hedi was jealous, and Yu Shuxin had to secretly poke show affection on Weibo to appease Wang Hedi.

Therefore, only if the two dramas "Sweet Honey" and "Dear Beloved" can be a big success, can Yang Zi secure her position as the top floret of the post-90s generation.

This principle is also applicable to Bai Xiaolu, and the promotion of Luo Yunxi in "The General" is just the beginning.Waiting for Bai Xiaolu to star in "Knowledge" and to be able to make another actor's partner popular, so that he can both become the top florets born in the 90s just like Yang Zi.
