Chapter 719 Hotspot
Entertainment has never been a particularly huge industry. Although the stars in the entertainment industry are all star-studded, many places such as the United States and Hong Kong Island have created Avenues of Stars, which record those who have attracted countless fans since the advent of film and television. , the names of people who are well-known around the world, or just locally.
Various award ceremonies and red carpets every year also attract the attention of people all over the world.
It seems that this is an industry that can make at least half of the seven billion people in the world dance for it. No other industry can compare with its influence.
Whether it is the classic characters created by these stars or the stars themselves, they all have a strong influence around the world. During a certain period of the last century, once some stars announced news of love or marriage, It can even cause some extreme fans to despair or even commit suicide.
The income of celebrities is also a topic that ordinary people talk about.
From the US$20 million salary club back then, to the Chinese finally appearing on this list, to now some domestic stars who are criticized for their acting skills, professionalism, etc., but one movie earns more than 100 million , China has also caught up with Japan and become the world's second largest entertainment market.
Every year, art schools, led by the Central Academy of Drama and the Imperial Film Academy, have constantly refreshed the number of people taking their art exams. Coupled with the endless emergence of various talent shows, many people regard this as the road to the spotlight. A shortcut.
All of this seems to be infinitely exaggerating the aura of the entertainment industry.
But what is the actual entertainment industry like?
In 2015, the total size of the global entertainment industry reached 1.7 trillion U.S. dollars. What an astonishing figure.
The United States, which ranks first, has an entertainment industry revenue of US$600 billion. China, ranked second, also reached US$160 billion.
However, China's most valuable companies, Ali or Penguin, have a market value of more than 200 billion U.S. dollars, which means that the output value of the entire entertainment industry is not as good as one company.
And if the comparison is based on transaction volume, the entertainment industry has suffered even worse. The total transaction volume of all Ali's platforms in 2015 reached nearly 500 billion U.S. dollars, which almost caught up with the total amount of the U.S. entertainment industry. income. Even leaving aside those companies and store owners who use Ali's platform to open stores, Ali's own transaction volume has reached 150 billion U.S. dollars, which is equivalent to the total revenue of the entire entertainment industry.
From a macro perspective, the value of the entertainment industry lies in its influence, rather than its contribution to the economy. Rather than boosting the economy, Taobao has completely defeated China's entire entertainment industry.
But most people don't understand this. What they see is the beauty of the entertainment industry and the evil hidden behind the entertainment industry. They don't care about how far China's enterprises have grown, because it is other people's money. They have nothing to do with or even satisfy anything in their senses.
The entertainment industry is different.
To be honest, every celebrity is a different object, the object of lust for different fans. Most people are extremely interested in the real life below the star's halo. They want to know whether there is PY trading hidden behind the celebrity's glory.
When talking about Ali and Penguin, everyone only cares about buying cheap things on Taobao or receiving a few red envelopes using WeChat. But when talking about the entertainment industry, almost everyone has a burning heart for gossip.
Therefore, Mr. Qian is not a star, but he is better than a star. He can be said to be a factory that produces stars. His family's company is a hotbed for mass production of stars.
In addition, Mr. Qian has the habit of being a loudmouth, and from time to time he will make some secrets known to the public that are unknown to outsiders and even insiders. He feels that gossip is insignificant, but it can bring many people to a collective climax in an instant. There will also be people who are extremely disgusted or even disgusted with Mr. Qian, but even so, they will still pay attention to every word he says, trying to analyze some gossip about the entertainment industry that others have not seen.
Usually when Mr. Qian posts a post on Weibo, it will be forwarded by tens of thousands of people. Even if it is just a photo, it will arouse heated discussions among many people.
He has long been accustomed to this kind of star-studded treatment, and he has naturally ignored that in his reposts, most of his fans actually hate him, and some of them even harbor hatred for him. There is deep malice. When he reveals information about a certain star, the star's fans will naturally hate him, while everyone else is watching the fun. But next time, it will be the fans of other stars to hate him. If things go on like this, it is not surprising that most of the fans who follow him on Weibo are fans who hate him but can't help but want to learn more about the entertainment industry from him.
Under such circumstances, when Mr. Qian made a bold statement but was slapped in the face by Shi Lei, those people would naturally spare no effort to attack him. Although they knew they could not hurt him, it was good to make him feel a little disgusted. .
Especially Mr. Qian said yesterday that the flash mob would never be successful. Today, the flash mob said that the valuation has reached 250 million, and this is just an angel round. These people are getting more and more excited. Aite can't get enough of it over and over again, almost Tag Mr. Qian on all Weibo posts that commented on the flash mob, especially those that mentioned Mr. Qian’s arrogant words about eating Xiang.
Mr. Qian was extremely annoyed, and his private mailbox was filled with private messages from various unknown accounts. At least 30% of them directly asked him when he would fulfill Chi Xiang's promise.
Ever since he became famous, Mr. Qian has never suffered such a loss. Now he is as sick as if he had eaten a fly. Not only those who liked him and sent him private messages, but also his comments were filled with comments asking him when he would eat Xiang. Some people simply sent a steaming photo, which made Mr. Qian even more disgusted.
He couldn't eat breakfast at all, and even when he drank water, he felt there was a smell in the cup. Mr. Qian got so angry that he almost smashed everything in his room.
He never thought that he would become the target of others' gossip.
In his opinion, the so-called 250 million is just a smoke bomb for a flash release, and the two venture capital companies are just taking the opportunity to speculate. How can such a product get such a high valuation? For this kind of company, if the valuation can exceed 50 million, it should be Amitabha.
"You bastard, you are using me as a stepping stone. Do you really think I can't deal with you?" Mr. Qian was so angry that he wanted to lift the roof off the house. He picked up the phone and dialed.
"Hey, it's me. Go check that Shi Lei for me and find out all his information. I want to know what kind of insect this grandson is. If he dares to rub off on me, I will let him know the hot spots. s consequence."
After saying that, Mr. Qian threw his cell phone on the bed, flipped through Weibo on his computer, and then threw his laptop out of the window in anger.
Weibo is still in full swing, and the earlier analysis of the flash mob has quietly subsided, but the topic of Shi Lei and Mr. Qian's mutual hostility, and when Mr. Qian will finally eat up, continues to heat up. In connection with this, the brand Pop-up is naturally mentioned constantly, and of course, Qixuan is also mentioned at the same time.
