Chapter 1076 Hello, Annie
Li Mu knows that pan-entertainment is the hot spot of the Internet industry in the future.
Whether it is games, or literature, animation, film and television, it is the main battlefield for pan-entertainment in the future.
Among them, the largest share is games and film and television.
Almost all the Internet giants of later generations have invested heavily in the film and television field. Among them, Tengxun and Alibaba have established their own film and television companies, while Baidu also relies on Nuomi and iQiyi to besiege the film and television circle from another direction, and it is interesting that, Almost every giant set up its own online ticketing business before jumping into the film and television industry.
Tengxun's online ticketing business finally became the Weiying era; Aliba's online ticketing platform became TaopiaoPiao, and Baidu became Baidu Nuomi.
The three companies all controlled a certain share of online ticketing, and then began to trace upstream and penetrate the film and television industry through the online ticketing resources in their hands. In addition to investing in and distributing film and television works, they also established their own film and television companies and hit the film and television industry in one go. It can be seen that the giants attach great importance to this aspect.
In the future Internet era, no product model is single. If it is placed in the hands of giants, it can produce a strong linkage effect. If it is in the hands of giants, an online ticketing platform can not only be traced back to the film and television industry. It can also become an important part of its own payment channels, become a major support for its own brand awareness and value, and become an important part of its entire pan-entertainment layout, which is of great significance. .
Li Mu's biggest advantage in this industry now is that he has no competitors. The product form is the first to come out, and he has enough capital and resource support to make this project run fast as soon as it is born, and no one can catch up.
Although Spielberg couldn't see so far, he was basically certain that if this thing was done well, it would have a great impact on the film and television industry, so he couldn't help asking Li Mu: "Mr. Li, this online ticket system , when are you going to get it in the US market?"
Li Mu said: "This system will be promoted in China now. If the promotion effect is good, we will transplant it to the US market as soon as possible, and Makino Technology will be responsible for the operation, integrating YY's promotion resources and PayPal as a payment channel. "
Spielberg nodded and asked Li Mu, "Is there anything I can do here?"
Li Mu waited for Spielberg to take the initiative to express his position. If he had said so much, and he had to ask him to do something together, it could only be said that the old man did not understand the concept.
Since Spielberg took the initiative to express interest,
Li Mu smiled indifferently and said: "I think we can jointly set up an online ticketing company at that time, with Makino Technology or Makino Imaging taking the majority of the shares, and you taking a small share. We have strong capital, technology, and a complete set of Solutions and promotion resources, and you have rich resources in the film and television industry, you can reach more people in the industry, especially in the section of the cinema, if we work together, we will definitely make this online ticket system bigger in the shortest time. Be stronger!"
Spielberg nodded excitedly and said, "I am very interested in the online ticket system that Mr. Li said. If what Mr. Li said is true, I would like to be a part of it!"
Li Mu immediately said: "Of course I welcome you very much. We can keep in touch on this matter. When I return to China, I will push it up in China first, and then I will talk to you about the next stage in detail."
Spielberg said without hesitation: "No problem!"
A few people chatted about the online ticket system for a while, and there were a lot of stars at the scene, including the handsome Tom Cruise, the equally handsome Keanu Reeves, and the not so handsome Matt Reeves. Damon, there are many other male and female celebrities who Li Mu looks familiar but can't recognize for a while.
It was originally a charity dinner hosted by Spielberg, but because of Li Mu's arrival, the focus of everyone's attention was shifted, and everyone's attention was attracted by Li Mu, who came from afar, because he is so well-known now. Gao, in the eyes of celebrities, he is a super hot topic of walking.
Many celebrities came up to say hello to Li Mu. Whether Li Mu knew him or not, he responded very politely. He was so busy shaking hands that his hands hurt and his arms were sore.
When the charity dinner was about to start, specially invited media reporters were also allowed to enter the venue, and the first thing these media did after entering the venue was to look for Li Mu everywhere, because for them, Li Mu was the charity tonight. The dinner party is the object of their most attention, otherwise, Hollywood can't wait to have two or three hundred such charity dinners a year, and the media reporters have long been exhausted.
Li Mu finally dealt with a large number of celebrities who came to meet him. At this moment, he was surrounded by a lot of reporters asking questions, and he was a little tired of dealing with it for a while.
Most of the questions asked by reporters have nothing to do with the charity dinner. Now the topics that Americans are most concerned about about Li Mu are: When will Li Mu really bring 3321 to the United States? How high can Muye Technology’s C round of financing be? And when Makino Technology will be listed.
Li Mu answered these questions one by one:
The 3321 team has started communication and negotiation with Harvard, and it should be able to bring 3321 to the United States soon;
How high the C-round financing of Muye Technology can be is determined by the market, not Li Mu himself;
The launch date of Muye Technology has not yet been determined, but if it is fast, it should be listed in 2003; if it is slow, it should be launched in 2004.
After answering a wave of questions, Spielberg saw that if it continued like this, today's charity dinner could become Li Mu's personal answer to reporters' questions, so he politely asked the media to let Li Mu go temporarily and won a moment of peace for Li Mu.
After finally being alone for a while, Li Mu subconsciously wanted to smoke a cigarette and be quiet. With so many celebrities and media, the scene was indeed a bit noisy, and after staying for a long time, it would be a headache.
Li Mu didn't choose to go out, but sneaked up to the second floor quietly, lit a cigarette on the terrace on the second floor, and just took two puffs when he heard a female voice ask timidly behind him: "Hello, Mr. Li Mu, can you meet me? "
Li Mu, who was smoking a cigarette, turned his head and saw a tall, beautiful young woman in front of him. Li Mu looked at her and felt familiar, but he couldn't think of it for a while.
Li Mu asked subconsciously, "Who are you?"
At this time, the young woman looked at Li Mu shyly and said in a low voice, "I'm a huge fan of yours, I adore you! I'm an actor myself, and my name is Anne Hathaway."
"Anne Hathaway?" Li Mu was shocked at the bottom of his heart. Before his rebirth, this name was still very famous!
Although I can't talk about how much I like Anne Hathaway, it is undeniable that in the future, Anne Hathaway will have a great influence all over the world, and the number of fans will be very large, but it is only at the end of 2002. , Anne Hathaway looked like a pretty and well-behaved girl next door in front of Li Mu.
Although he was very shocked, Li Mu pretended to be calm on the surface. He probably looked at the twenty-year-old Anne Hathaway in front of him. He had to sigh that a beautiful woman is a beautiful woman. There are no flaws, the skin can be broken by blowing bullets, the white is red, and the facial features can not be picked out at all, and the smile is very bright. In Li Mu's aesthetic view, this is the standard Western beauty, the only shortcoming may be the mouth. Slightly bigger, but not too big for Westerners.
At this time, Anne Hathaway was very nervous. Seeing Li Mu's surprised expression, she thought that Li Mu didn't know her at all, and hurriedly added: "Mr. Li, I'm just a newcomer in the film and television industry, and I just played the first role last year. The movie, so you don't know me, but I'm your number one fan and admire you very much! So I hope to get to know you..."
Li Mu smiled slightly, extended his hand to her generously, and said with a smile, "Hello Miss Hathaway, my name is Li Mu."
Anne Hathaway stretched out her hand shyly, shook Li Mu lightly, and said excitedly, "Mr. Li, you can call me Anne directly."
Li Mu nodded: "Hello, Annie."
Anne Hathaway smiled sweetly and said with a slightly playful wink, "Hello Mr. Li Mu!"
Li Mu asked her curiously, "What year was Miss Anne born? We should be about the same age, right?"
Anne Hathaway said: "I was born in November 1982, and you, Mr. Li Mu."
Li Mu smiled and said, "You can call me Li Mu, I'm a few months older than you, and I'm in June."
Anne Hathaway did not hide the admiration on her face at all, and said, "It's really amazing to have such outstanding achievements at such a young age..."
Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "You are as old as me, aren't you already a big star in Hollywood now?"
Anne Hathaway laughed at herself and said, "I'm not a star, I've only acted in two or three movies."
Li Mu smiled and said, "I've seen the "Princess Diaries" you acted, but I didn't recognize you just now, because your look today is a bit different from the movie."
When Anne Hathaway heard that Li Mu had seen her first movie "The Princess Diaries", she became excited and danced with excitement: "Aren't you kidding me? You really watched the "Princess Diaries" I played. The Princess Diaries?"
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile, "Of course I've seen it, otherwise I wouldn't be able to name it."
Anne Hathaway said happily: "I am really honored that the famous Li Mu has actually seen the movie I acted in!"
