Chapter 445 Project Development and Investment
In mid-July, Yang Lingyue's main focus was on "The Martian".
He refused most unnecessary dates, not to mention some interviews.
Because "Mohe Ballroom" was so popular, it was very out of place among the Olympic songs.
The MV shot by Huajuan Records basically restored Zhang Dequan's story. The director was Cai Chuyuan and the actors were middle-aged extras.
Some shots of Yang Lingyue singing in the recording studio were interspersed in the picture.
Another impact was that Mohe became popular, and the underground dance hall became popular, and the boss was very happy.
It's just that Zhang Dequan didn't go there to dance anymore. Unlike before, Zhang Yun bought a house and a set of music equipment for him.
"Wujiapo" was naturally released, but it didn't have the social influence of "Mohe Ballroom".
In addition to these two songs, various incentive plans of Baozi Video were officially launched. The first to come in were of course the various study abroad experiences posted by international students from various countries.
Some people shoot food, some comment on various foreign news. Of course, the most common thing is to refute rumors, which are some rumors that some domestic magazines and media blindly praise foreign countries.
Because this type of video has the highest traffic and they earn the most. This is of course the result of the official end of Baozi Video. This is biased.
This is really a good time point. As the Olympics are getting closer, the national confidence has never been higher since the new century. Of course, it is only limited to this time period. Nationalism is high, and people naturally like to watch these.
In addition, the US election has entered a white-hot stage, and dog food is cut off, so the barking of dogs is naturally much smaller.
Some people have seen clearly that this is the civil opinion war launched by Yang Lingyue. They are very anxious for their spiritual motherland, but every time they call for reflection, they are either sprayed or slapped in the face by actual examples.
Some people are indeed reflecting on themselves, reflecting on the fact that they have been led by the rhythm. More and more real foreign content has been filmed by these overseas student bloggers, and many things have gradually become desensitized.
People who are already working naturally have fun watching it. The people Yang Ling wants to influence are not them, but mainly students, high school students and college students. Some things have changed unconsciously.
Another change is that Color Strip House Animation Special Effects was established on July 5, and October Digital was incorporated as a studio, spending 10 million + 5% of the equity.
Color Strip House operates independently, but exists as a special effects studio. The person in charge of this special effects studio is Wang Zhe.
Tian Xiaopeng was appointed as CEO. From this appointment, it can be seen that Color Strip House is currently and for a long time. The development of technology is the priority, which is different from Wang Xing.
Wang Jing was appointed as Tian Xiaopeng's assistant, but this assistant has great authority, of course only for external use, that is, to coordinate the group's resources to help Tian Xiaopeng develop Color Strip House. To put it bluntly, it is a supervisor.
Yang Lingyue had a conversation with Tian Xiaopeng, Wang Zhe and Wang Jing at the beginning of the month. The content of the conversation was about the development and requirements of Caitiaowu, which can be summarized as follows:
“1. I will give you 300 million yuan. This money is not used for creation, but for comic platforms and special effects;
2. Regarding the comic platform website, 100 million yuan will be used to develop the website, acquire copyrights, and attract cartoonists. My requirement for this is to achieve profitability within two years and become the largest comic platform in China;
3. After the platform has a certain user base, it will produce animations, which may not necessarily be launched on Baozi Video, but on the entire network. It will be launched on whoever offers the highest price. To put it bluntly, it is to ensure a certain degree of operational independence;
4. Animation movies are operated independently. In addition to self-production, related projects can also be explored. Caitiaowu will invest if it has money, and it can attract investment if it does not have money. I think the project is good, so Huajuan Film and Television will invest. I think If it doesn't work, but you think it's OK, then you can go find someone else;
5. The remaining money is for special effects, to continue training, reserving, and tapping talents, and purchasing equipment. Many special effects artists in South Korea who can't make a living can connect with Chen Lin of Huajuan and dig some of them over.
Although the American ones are the strongest, the prices are too high. You can find them for cooperation in the early stage, but the condition must be joint participation.
My idea is to make at most three movies, whether science fiction or animation, after which you can be completely independent.
Wang Jing can pay more attention to this aspect of the business. There are many film and television projects within our group or in cooperation. These scattered projects can be unprofitable in the early stage. The development of technology must be the first priority. "
Tian Xiaopeng and the other two had no objection to this. The direction is clear, the funds are sufficient, the requirements are reasonable, and the treatment is enough. What else do you want?
Where did Yang Lingyue's 300 million yuan invested in Caitiaowu come from?
Naturally, it was Longwen Education, which was sold in a package. 420 million yuan was received, Caitiaowu 300 million yuan, and the remaining 120 million yuan went to Donglai Investment.
Among them, 30 million was used to acquire 85% of the shares of a surveillance equipment manufacturer in Shenzhen, named Qiaoan Technology, which was acquired in the name of Yu Li.
When Lin Jianye reported back on July 25, he also mentioned a drone R&D team that cooperated with Qiaoan. They were in great need of funds, mainly because this team was too extreme and did not allow any capital to interfere in their business.
Although Lin Jianye did not like the people in this team, he felt that this project had a future, because the boss's favorite was film and television, and drone aerial photography.
Yang Lingyue could not help but admire when he heard the name. Lin Jianye was really a lucky general, although his thinking was not very good.
"Talk to them and finally agree to their request. The emotional value must be sufficient. As for angel investment, we will take as much equity as they offer."
Lin Jianye was very happy about this. The big boss really liked this, and he really had autonomy. So he called the team to go to Shenzhen again, and he has not returned to Beijing yet.
In the early stage, there must be praise or criticism, project review and negotiation. It was also a project discovered by Lin Jianye himself, so he was very attentive.
Zhang Yun's music software, also called Huajuan Cloud Music, was officially launched on July 15. It is currently in the UI design stage. This time, Yang Lingyue did not directly provide a ready-made draft picture, but only said that it should be simple and have a comment function. The first version has been rejected, and the second version is still being designed.
Zhang Yun is also anxious. She doesn't have much time to date her girlfriend. After all, after her efforts, Yang Lingyue promised that when the software technology development reaches the internal testing stage, Huajuan Records' funds can be retained to purchase music copyrights.
Music software, without music copyrights, is a shitty music software.
As for Yang Lingyue's whereabouts at night, half of the time was spent in Siheyuan, a quarter in Shunyi, and a quarter in Xinghewan.
In this way, the busy and fulfilling July ended.
