Chapter 1517 1 Billion Box Office Record!
Under the temptation of huge bonuses, the producers of pirated CDs across the country suffered an unprecedented blow overnight. More than 50% of the pirates were caught overnight, and almost all of the remaining pirates were the second to hit hard. The sky disappeared.
None of these pirates who have not been caught yet are sure whether their information has been reported to Muye Technology, so they either start running away or destroy evidence. In short, almost no one dares to commit crimes against the wind.
At this time, those who dare to commit crimes are generally small-scale family-style workshops, which do not need to hire additional workers. The entry of raw materials and the shipment of finished products are very concealed and are not easy to be discovered.
However, within a few days, even if these small-scale producers are not caught, they have largely lost their motivation to produce pirated copies, because the supply chain in this market has begun to break, and no one dares to sell pirated CDs in the market for a while. .
This is the scary part of Muye Technology. Once a large-scale enterprise of this size begins to let people selling pirated disks in the streets and alleys, as long as a report is received, even if it is just a street vendor, Muye Technology will take these Report clues are submitted to the local law enforcement department, and, every few hours, the local law enforcement department will be consulted about the results of the law enforcement feedback. If the result is not returned, the legal team of Muye Technology will send a special person to the local area to "cooperate with the law enforcement department to crack down." Piracy".
To say that it is cooperation is actually to apply pressure in a different way.
Muye Technology itself is a world-class star enterprise and the largest online platform with strong publicity capabilities. In this campaign against piracy, it also perfectly displayed the image of a good citizen and a model enterprise. These factors have made law enforcement everywhere. The unit has to pay attention to the action against piracy.
Almost all of the pirated audio-visual stores, CD-ROM rental shops and roadside stalls lining the streets and alleys have closed their doors after several rounds of arrests, confiscated several rounds of pirated audio-visual products, and administrative detention of shop owners suspected of selling pirated audio-visual products.
This is mainly because, among the various reports received by Muye Technology, the reports on sellers of pirated audio and video products accounted for more than 90% of all reports, and every store selling pirated CDs was affected by a large number of citizens. complaint.
The reason is very simple. There are only a few production lines, and pirated manufacturers are doing 2B (To-Business) business, not 2C (To-) business, just like clothing production, they are all wholesale agents. Direct-to-consumer, so most people have no way to report the production line.
And directly facing consumers are the small shops on the streets and alleys. The daily traffic at the entrance exceeds 10,000, from the proprietress of the barber shop opposite the door, to the master of the ramen shop next door, and the gangsters who have no money to surf the Internet diagonally across the entrance of the Internet cafe. Everyone wants to earn the 2,000 yuan for the successful report, so everyone is crazy about such a store.
According to the data analysis of Muye Technology, there are more than 260 pieces of information about the same store reported by different people at the same time.
The nuclear attack of Muye Technology has caused the entire piracy industry to be shaken, and the entire industry has suffered an unprecedented heavy blow.
Many piracy practitioners hate Muye Technology in their hearts. In their eyes, they are just making a little money. Compared with a company like Muye Technology, which is valued at over 100 billion US dollars, it is comparable to ants. Everyone pirated "Crazy Stone" ”, which is equivalent to a group of ants grabbing the bread crumbs that Muye Technology dropped on the ground when they were eating. Muye Technology had to kill them all, and it was too inhumane.
Some pirated users are also very dissatisfied with Muye Technology's approach. For a time, the route to enjoy intellectual property rights at a low price is cut off. They not only can't buy or see the pirated version of "Crazy Stone", even other pirated movies, Music tapes as well as CDs are hard to come by, they take this "loss",
The blame lies on the head of Muye Technology, and many netizens who hold the same views are called on the Internet to spread attacks on Muye Technology.
When these voices were fed back to Li Mu's ears, he did not relax his crackdown on pirates, and he did not delete any comments criticizing Muye Technology on the Internet.
If someone really wants to scold Muye Technology for cracking down on piracy, not only can he not delete their abusive remarks, but he should keep these things. He believes that even if the majority of consumers cannot understand themselves now, in the next few years , I will still understand that this is the inevitable result of social progress and the increased legal awareness of the masses. These remarks that support, maintain, and favor piracy will sooner or later be nailed to the pillar of shame on the road of intellectual property protection in China.
...
With the protection against piracy, "Crazy Stone" will remain popular in the next week.
The average box office on weekdays is more than 65 million, which makes people in the entire industry get pink eye disease.
Just after half a day on Saturday, the total box office exceeded one billion yuan, which is an unprecedented box office peak of Huaxia Films and an excellent proof of the commercial potential of Huaxia Films.
Almost all the media contributed their front page headlines to "Crazy Stone", and turned on the TV at 6:30 pm. Almost every news program of satellite TV was reporting this historic moment. The subsequent news broadcast, CCTV This news is also listed as the main content, and the focus is reported.
CCTV said in the report that "Crazy Stone" represents the huge potential contained in China's local commercial films and the commercial film market, and believes that it will be a new starting point for Chinese films.
A movie represents the potential of the entire industry;
A film represents a new starting point for the entire Chinese film industry;
The evaluation given by CCTV is indeed very high. Although it is very high, it is not flattering.
One billion box office is like a myth. Any movie that can achieve this box office result in this era can be directly conferred a god!
"Crazy Stone" has a great positive impact on the entire industry, with a box office of one billion yuan, and has cultivated tens of millions of paying audiences for the future Huaxia film industry, and cultivated their habit of buying tickets to the cinema to watch movies;
At the same time, the billion-dollar box office has also made directors and screenwriters in the industry aware of the explosive growth of the market space in the future. The increase in the total box office indicates that this pot of rice is expanding, and everyone can eat more and better than before. So this makes them start gearing up and have a greater passion to devote themselves to the industry;
In addition, the popularity of capital in the film and television industry has also skyrocketed. Before "Crazy Stone", not many people dared to invest tens of millions to make a movie, because the box office may not reach tens of millions, but "Crazy Stone" "Stone" showed such a strong box office performance that it turned the film and television industry from a barren loess field into an oil field with huge benefits.
Because of the unparalleled high attendance rate of "Crazy Stone", the theater chain has made a lot of money during this period. For a time, even investing in theater chains has become a good business in the eyes of real entrepreneurs. Li Mu previously launched the "Screen Fission Plan", which is another strong guarantee and psychological support for those who want to invest in cinemas.
In order to celebrate the "Crazy Stone" box office breaking one billion, Makino Image organized an internal celebration banquet in Yanjing. This celebration banquet did not invite any media, except for the executives of Makino Technology, employees of Makino Imaging, and Apart from the contracted artists and crew members, only Chen Ze, Song Liang and Cai Zhengmao from CSC Club were invited to participate.
The reason why the media and guests were not invited is because a total of two celebration banquets have been prepared. This is a celebration banquet in the true sense of my own, and the celebration banquet two days later is openly invited media reporters and guests to participate. , The celebration banquet was mainly for a new round of publicity for the movie, which was equivalent to adding another fire.
However, Li Mu was unable to attend the second celebration party. The party he had agreed with Steve Johnson, the boss of Sequoia, was just around the corner. The business jet he rented would take off from Yanjing to London tomorrow, and Li Mu was accompanied by Li Mu. Ziwei, and three personal bodyguards including Wang Yuenlang, besides them, there are two other guests, that is Anne Hathaway, and her personal assistant.
At the celebration banquet, Ning Hao, the protagonist, was so excited that he couldn't even speak well. From an unknown practitioner to a top director whose first single film broke the billion-dollar box office, this step has been taken by others for decades without success. , it only took him two years to succeed.
When everyone coaxed him to say something, he, a rough old man, didn't hold back his emotions and cried like a middle-aged hanging silk whose beloved wife ran away with his good brother.
As the boss, Li Mu stepped forward to comfort him, but he hugged Li Mu and cried even more.
Li Mu can understand Ning Hao's mood at the moment, no matter how the society exaggerates the success of learning, for most people in this world, life is unsatisfactory, eight or nine times out of ten.
It is good to be in the workplace, or in any industry or field. As long as you are not a boss, you will have to face a special test of character: Can you meet a good boss on the road of your growth?
It's just that good bosses are much rarer than giant pandas in this society.
Some bosses directly starve their employees and lose weight;
Some bosses are tired and thin in order to find ways to deduct the wages of their employees;
Are you really willing to take out the rice in your own pot so that employees and their families can be full and how many bosses can eat well?
Therefore, Ning Hao is very fortunate in his heart, fortunate that he has met Li Mu. As a boss, Li Mu is much better than the best boss he imagined. This movie can reach such a high level, mostly because he is a good boss for this movie. Such a towering and sturdy foundation was built.
Li Mu patted Ning Hao on the shoulder and said jokingly, "Don't get too excited, Lao Ning, you just set a new record, but the meaning of this record is for people to break."
Ning Hao wiped away his tears and said, "Then I hope my record can be broken sooner, that's the true spring of Chinese movies."
Li Mu smiled and said, "Then I think the next one to break the box office record of "Crazy Stone" should be "Flying Tigers."
Ning Hao nodded and said, "The future box office of "Flying Tigers" in North America may reach the order of hundreds of millions of dollars. I can't imagine how much the global box office can achieve."
Li Mu said with a smile: "The box office of "Flying Tigers" must break the global box office record, even if it throws money at this level, because its significance is not how much money it makes, but how many people watch it!"
