Chapter 278: Internet Copyrights Wiped Out

Zhou You sighed, pulled Yang Lingyue to sit down again, and said sincerely:

"Bureau Tong is our old leader, so I will tell you what's on my mind.

You see, I am from Qin and you are from Jin. Since ancient times, Qin and Jin have been the best.

Although our Xiying film industry is very glorious, that is in the past.

This is a market economy. No matter how many awards you win, if there is no box office, what’s the use?

Our Xiying Film is now almost reduced to a distribution company, not as good as Shanghai Film Studio. If it weren’t for subsidies, we wouldn’t be able to raise our wages.

I'm not kidding you, we really want to ask you to give us some advice. If you have time this weekend, come and have a look at our West Film Studio. "

Zhou You was very sincere and spoke without hesitation.

Yang Lingyue fell silent. He had the ability. With Xiying's foundation and talent reserve, he could make money by just throwing in a few notebooks, but why?

So many talented people from Xiying Film Studio have left, either to work alone or to join private enterprises, not all in order to earn more.

"Director Zhou, you really think highly of me. The reason for the success of my movie is actually that China Film is willing to spend money. If Mr. Ma and I hadn't stopped it, China Film's distribution department would have doubled the distribution fee." Yang Lingyue After careful consideration, I decided to divert the trouble to the east.

Zhou You was surprised at first, and then said helplessly: "There is also this matter, hiss. No, money is one aspect, but the entire publicity plan is not the work of China Film."

Before Yang Lingyue could say anything, Zhou You continued: "Director Yang, do you think this will work? As for me, it is indeed a bit abrupt. I am really embarrassed to directly throw such a big proposition to you.

Can the overseas copyright and distribution of "Race" be left to our Western Film Group? How about we start cooperation from here? "

Yang Lingyue realized clearly that after so long of preparation and such a disastrous sale, it was simply because he wanted to seize overseas distribution or copyright operations from China Film.

Yang Lingyue then denied the idea. If the purpose was so simple, he would not have passed through Tong Gang.

"Okay, I personally want it, but I have to communicate with China Film Group about this matter." Yang Lingyue said with a smile.

"No problem, I'll communicate with Manager Yu." Zhou You patted his chest.

"Okay, Director Zhou, let's keep communicating. I'll greet the other guests." Yang Lingyue stood up.

"Okay, okay, please."

Zhou You smiled and didn't mention the visit to Xiying on the weekend.

But as soon as Yang Lingyue took a step, he turned back and said:

"Director Zhou, one more thing, I created a small website dedicated to showing old movies.

You have so many excellent films. They can't just appear occasionally on the movie channel, or on other websites, or download software and just play them and download them, right?

I definitely don’t want this for my own movies, so I want to pay a certain fee to purchase the online broadcast rights of your movies. "

(There is a bug in the previous document, saying that "Curved Surface" sold 100,000 yuan on domestic video websites, which is nonsense.

After investigation: Video website copyrights only started to take action in 2009. They almost did not exist before. It all stemmed from the collapse of 56.com and the rise of LeTV after it held 70% of domestic film and television copyrights.

The fight against piracy only applies to movies during their theatrical release. )

"Well..."

Zhou You was a little confused. This thing can still be sold for money in China. There are so many websites where you can browse and download it casually.

"Just think that I support the genuine version. I'll wait for your letter." Yang Lingyue smiled and made a phone call gesture.

Zhou You was a little touched. Are you pitying Xiying? Looking for an excuse to give some money?

Let's talk to the factory. I think Yang Lingyue's website also needs content. After all, there are some old movies and there are no resources online.

After leaving Zhou You, Yang Lingyue called Zhou Jianfeng to come over quickly, and then dragged the major studios to start chatting, eventually bringing up the issue of Internet copyright.

Zhuying, Shanghai Film, Emei, Changying, China Film (formerly Beijing Film), and of course some private companies.

Everyone was surprised, but they fully supported Yang Lingyue's idea of ​​supporting the genuine version, and they all said they would respond as soon as possible.

For a time, the guests and hosts were enjoying themselves.

After Zhou Jianfeng arrived, he immediately understood the boss's idea. He initially discussed the relevant details with several major studios and initially formulated a 15-year network copyright, with priority to renew the contract thereafter.

Yang Lingyue actually wanted to sign the contract for eight years, but the major studios were too generous and expressed their support for Director Yang's small website.

Oh, let’s talk about it later. How to make up for it when we see it. Don’t even think about using the contract to argue. If you take the biggest share, forget it. If you take them all, you will become the public enemy of the entire industry.

Privately, Zhou Jianfeng suppressed his excitement and said:

"Boss, I will follow up on this matter as soon as possible, and I will calculate the expenses as soon as possible. Please receive the payment as soon as possible. In addition, I think in addition to movies, CCTV, major TV stations, and companies that produce TV series should also take the opportunity to contact them, as well as those in Hong Kong City What do you think?"

Yang Lingyue was a little confused for a while. Are you a reborn person, or me? Is it okay that the film and television copyright law will not be revised until three years later?

In other words, the money spent in the past three years was actually wasted. Thinking this way, Yang Lingyue felt a little more relaxed.

So he gave Zhou Jianfeng a meaningful look and warned: "Well, go ahead and wait a moment over at the port city. For the rest, you can directly contact Mr. Yu and Mr. Li. The three of you will set up a copyright acquisition group and go ahead with confidence and boldness." Okay. Wait, don’t lower the price too hard.”

The luncheon is a cold meal, the kind where each person takes a plate and is self-sufficient.

Later, a movie said that this was like begging for food.

Yang Lingyue didn't care and had a good appetite. Zeng Li was speechless after watching it, and her voice was a little hoarse.

The two had a clear division of labor. Yang Lingyue greeted the guests, and Zeng Li and a group of actors were responsible for dealing with reporters.

One was brain-consuming, and the other was voice-consuming.

After the end, the two sat in the car and were silent for a while.

"How do you think the box office of the movie can rebound after such a toss?" Zeng Li said.

"How would I know this, but there must be benefits. At least the expenses of this celebration banquet can definitely be earned back." Yang Lingyue said with a smile.

"Listening to your words is better than a speech." Zeng Li decisively complained back with the words her boyfriend once complained about.

Yang Lingyue then talked about his judgment on the future of online copyright.

"After the Olympics, all kinds of patents will definitely be more valued, and Internet copyrights will be no exception. By then, once several Internet companies speculate on them, the prices will rise rapidly."

"I believe in your judgment that copyrights will be more important in the future, but have you ever thought about who will compete with us for so many copyrights we have obtained?" Zeng Li felt that her boyfriend was a little too optimistic.

"Let's make concessions, as long as we can get the biggest piece. The studio will definitely have to compensate, otherwise they will poke a few transparent holes in me in anger." Yang Lingyue said with a smile.

"Just think it over, hey, what about Hong Kong movies." Zeng Li reacted.
