After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 357 Penguin Video
In 2010, Mingyang Entertainment had three major projects, One Punch Man, Your Name, and Far Cry, in addition to many small projects.

The first One Punch Man film produced and distributed 4000 million copies, while the second film produced and distributed 2910 million copies.

You spend money and don't make a penny, but you gain a reputation.

Your Name grossed 11.18 billion yuan, with the producer and distributor taking a total of 43% of the share, or almost 4.8 million yuan.

But after deducting the publicity and promotion costs and ticket subsidy costs, the net profit is only more than 6000 million.

Bouquet Entertainment owns 50% of Your Name, which is more than 3000 million, plus more than 760 million in profits from Far Cry.

A total profit of nearly 3800 million.

After deducting employee salaries, bonuses, travel expenses, various small project expenses, etc., Mingyang Entertainment lost more than 6000 million last year.

Youth Ray sold Far Cry 1000 to Bernard for a total of million.

The copyright fees for movie scripts are classified as "royalty income" in personal income tax, and the tax rate usually required is 20%.

The copyright fee income of 1000 million yuan exceeds the standard of 20 yuan, so 200% of the expenses need to be deducted, that is, 800 million yuan, and the remaining million yuan is the taxable income.

Based on the tax rate of 20%, the personal income tax payable is 160 million yuan.

That's how it was calculated, but because of some random deductions, I ended up paying nearly 200 million in taxes.

Only 819 million yuan was received.

Youth Light Artist Management had total revenue of 8200 million and net profit of more than 1200 million last year.

Qingchun Guangguang’s net profit reached more than 2000 million last year.

The net profit is split almost equally between Guangxian and Huashu Entertainment.

Huashu Entertainment received more than 1000 million.

Huahua Entertainment made very, very good profits last year.

In addition to the more than 1000 million share of Youth Light.

The adaptation rights for Your Name and Bouquet of Love totaled $900 million.

About 6300 million.

Huace’s 2.6 million, a perfect 1 million.

This money was before tax and was directly invested in the ticket subsidy in your name. After going through a circle, it finally became a share of the box office revenue, 3 million.

This is equivalent to deducting only 60 million in taxes.

Under normal circumstances, at least 1.6 million yuan must be paid.

In addition to financial gains.

The largest investment of Huazhu Entertainment last year was the Huazhu Hotel, which is now worth nearly 2.9 million yuan.

Mingyang Entertainment lost more than 60 million last year, while Huashu Entertainment earned more than 600 million last year.

Years ago, Yang Mi asked Li Mingyang when the dividends would be distributed.

When I saw the glaring deficit of Mingyang Entertainment, my face turned green.

The benefits are indeed high, but the costs are too high.

In actual calculation, after deducting the cost of 400 million and the 100 million borrowed from Yunfeng Fund.

Then deduct Li Mingyang’s personal income.

Huazhu Entertainment’s accounts are also in the red.

The copyright of Bouquet of Love was transferred from Mingyang Entertainment to Huashu Entertainment by Li Mingyang.

Yang Mi didn't feel anything at first.

After learning that the adaptation rights of Bouquet of Flowers were sold for 600 million US dollars, he never talked to Li Mingyang again.

Both Mingyang Entertainment and Huahua Entertainment were in the red, but Li Mingyang personally made a profit of over 4 million.

And the reason why he was able to make so much profit so easily was all thanks to the huge box office success of Your Name.

The 3.6 ​​million was reduced to 3 million.

Last year’s accounts were very complicated, but this year’s accounts are very simple.

Huabu Live cashed out 500 million yuan at a high price.

In Huabu Live, Li Mingyang owns 75% of the shares, Zhang Wei and Li Ming each own 5%, and the others together own 15%.

After deducting taxes, Li Mingyang can still get 300 million.

A total of more than 700 million.

It doesn’t matter whether the company has money or not. At worst, it can take out a loan or borrow money.

Li Mingyang was a little troubled about how to spend his own money.

The most important thing is that it is not enough to spend... The more than 700 million yuan not only involves Huabu Video and Bilibili, but also involves Three-Body Pictures!

Li Mingyang thought about it for an entire afternoon and finally called Wang Changtian.

"I am planning to set up Tribody Pictures this month. Where do you think is a good place to open this company?"

……

Three-Body Pictures was established this year and the copyright of Three-Body was made public.

You definitely can’t avoid China Film.

To be honest, Li Mingyang didn't want to cooperate with China Film Group on The Three-Body Problem.

The best time to make "The Three-Body Problem" is when Tianti is reorganized, the situation is stable, Zuoshandiao has stepped down... when the domestic film industry is leaderless.

That is 14 years.

By then, just one year later, The Three-Body Problem will win the Hugo Award.

When the east wind comes, everything will be favorable!
What a pity! Ideals are beautiful, but reality is cruel.

He didn't expect that the Chinese film company would chase him so fiercely...

How long can Zhang Zhao and Wang Changtian endure?

I can't stand it much longer...

He is the No. 1 domestic box office star and also holds the copyright of The Three-Body Problem. It is a perfect match, a match made in heaven!
Zhang Fanfan’s talent is not good enough, and China Film Group would rather make The Wandering Earth than invest in The Three-Body Problem.

As he is filming The Three-Body Problem, China Film Corporation will probably have to go all out.

China Film has been seeking to go public, and China Film Co., Ltd. was forced to do so.

This year, there have been frequent reports about China Film Group's listing, but the national big brother has imposed too many restrictions.

The higher-ups are worried.

Not released.

The eagle was speechless.

China Film Group Corporation is pursuing The Three-Body Problem so aggressively that Li Mingyang feels that Zuo Shandiao is probably trying to use the film and television adaptation of The Three-Body Problem to please the higher-ups and rush for a listing.

3 month 3 day.

Four Seasons Hotel Hangzhou at West Lake.

With the introduction of Wang Changtian, Li Mingyang met Lao Ma in a pavilion by the lake.

and other accompanying personnel.

Among these people, Li Mingyang not only met Penguin Video CEO Liu Chunning.

There is also the boss in the previous life, the vice president of Penguin and the future CEO of Penguin Video, the rock man Lao Sun.

Lao Liu wanted to be Lao Liu, but was finally sent to jail by Lao Ma.

Sun Zhonghuai often appears with long hair, which he occasionally ties into a ponytail. He does not look like the head of a video platform, but more like a typical rock guy.

As a top student of economics at Renmin University, Sun Zhonghuai, like his junior Liu Qiangdong from the Department of Sociology at the same university, did not work in his "main line of business".

Dong Ge initially opened a restaurant but ended up losing a lot of money, so he went to Zhongguancun to sell CDs; while Lao Sun was a "literary youth" who preferred writing work, and after graduation, he joined the media.

But they all ended up in the same place, and eventually they all rushed into the embrace of the Internet.

Lao Sun initially served as the content director of NetEase's portal business and successfully led NetEase to become one of the three major portals.

In 2002, he switched to TOM.com, which was owned by the Li family of Hong Kong.

In 2003, Penguin, which wanted to develop its online media business, took on a major responsibility in this social empire.

As the founder of Penguin.com, Lao Sun helped Penguin develop its portal media business. Relying on the success of QQ pop-ups, when he turned around and left, he had forced Penguin.com to become the top of the "Four Major Portals".

Therefore, it also established his voice and status in Tencent.

With both the content gene and the experience of a key figure who has made great achievements, it is natural for Lao Sun to take over Penguin Video.

But the result was...terrible.

When he took over Penguin Video, the internal situation was in a mess, left behind by Liu Chunning.

Externally, Youku acquired Tudou and became the dominant player.

Gong Yu of iQiyi has come to his senses and is spending money like crazy on variety shows.

Everyone in the industry was stunned by Gong Yushao at the time and thought he was crazy.

I didn’t expect that iQiyi actually made money in the end.

Since the day he took over Penguin Video, Lao Sun was beaten by Gong Yu until he lost his temper.

Penguin Video owns the huge IP treasure trove of China Literature.

Still beaten by Gong Yu...Old Ma was so angry that he often slammed the table.

Under the premise that the content IP supply is not advantageous, Gong Yu built a "drama selection model" to improve efficiency. Through data indicators such as director, actors, number of episodes, type, broadcast market, etc., combined with some subjective judgment, he predicted which drama would be popular.

Not only that, Gong Yu also proposed the "Apple Tree" business model, which includes a long video ecosystem that combines nine business formats: advertising, membership, brokerage, rewards, publishing, distribution, authorization, games, and e-commerce.

This model has also become the standard in the domestic video industry.

However, this ecosystem has not actually been implemented.

But Gong Yu, who graduated from an engineering school, had groundbreaking ideas and crushed the literary and artistic rock star Lao Sun.

In ten years, Penguin burned through more than 50 billion, but was still beaten by iQiyi...

Every time Penguin feels like it’s about to turn the tide, it gets beaten back by iQiyi…

Penguin Video will be officially launched in April this year.

The main topic of today's gathering is the cooperation between Penguin Video and Bouquet Video.

Bouquet Video is a section of Bilibili.

Bilibili is an embarrassing pirated website with almost no advertising revenue.

Become a regular employee?

It’s just not making money right now.

To become a regular employee and buy copyrights, I lost a lot of money.

Huabu Video mainly sells goods and online copyrights of film and television dramas.

Lao Ma is not very talkative, he prefers to listen.

The one who discussed cooperation with Li Mingyang was Lao Liu.

I have to say that this guy is really a stupid son of a landlord.

Li Mingyang sold the online broadcasting rights of "Empresses in the Palace" for a whopping 3000 million yuan.

The first round broadcasting rights of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" were jointly purchased by Yanbei Satellite TV and Zhejiang Satellite TV for a total price of 6000 million.

Excluding Zheng Dalong's bonus, "Legend of Zhen Huan" has already paid back its investment and will be pure profit from now on.

TV stations sell second, third, and more rounds of films, and video platforms sell them one by one, selling them every year and making profits every year.

As long as the quality of the previous life is maintained, the IP can earn at least 100 million yuan every year through operation.

Wait until B station becomes a regular employee.

Thanks to the exclusive broadcast of "Legend of Zhen Huan", Huabu Video took off immediately.
