Chapter 167 Yang Mi's Reaction, Surprise
Jiaxing
Yang Mi originally had high hopes for the movie "Rescue".
It's worth noting that Jackie Chan was both the producer and investor of this film.
They also actively helped communicate with some box office awards, which were hard-won opportunities.
"Looking at the box office, it's difficult to even recoup costs."
Yang Mi felt a chill run down her spine as she looked at the trending topics and said aloud.
Jaywalk Studio also invested in this film, but it was a complete investment failure.
In other words, Jiaxing's profits are already sufficient; otherwise, it might affect the performance-based agreement.
"Honey, sometimes failure is just something you can't help."
Zeng Jia said with a helpless expression.
They originally planned to use Jackie Chan's connections to go global and create an international movie star image.
The attempt failed and backfired!
Most of the comments were sarcastic, which made things a bit difficult.
The trending topic about the box office of "Hello Mr. Billionaire" made Yang Mi a little nervous.
"Zeng Jia, is Jaywalk Studio's profit this year lower than that of Lan Ke Studio?!"
Yang Mi couldn't help but ask a question!
This year, both she and Dilraba, along with their artists, have signed numerous projects.
This is to ensure that profits reach the level stipulated in the performance-based agreement.
"It's highly unlikely to compare; the box office of 'Hello Mr. Billionaire' was simply phenomenal."
"The application for key extension was successful again. We're just a little short of reaching 30 billion."
"Based on the investment share of Lanco Studio, the profit should exceed 1.5 million, not to mention the rest."
"And Lanco Studios is reportedly going to be upgraded to a company soon."
...
Zeng Jia spoke frankly, her words filled with emotion.
Even though she had never really taken Lanco Studio seriously before.
After all, Liu Yulan was a latecomer to the profession, but she had a good son.
When the studio was first established, Jaywalk Studio, which was on good terms with Chen Jingyuan, must have known about it.
However, I didn't pay much attention to it, and before I knew it, two years had passed!
Lanco Studio already has several artists, and three of them have already made a name for themselves.
Especially with the release of "Hello Mr. Billionaire," Bai Lu has gained popularity and box office success, making her a top-tier actress.
Although there may still be a lot of gaps compared to Dilraba!
For example, Bai Lu currently has only 1200 million Weibo followers, while Dilraba has over 2500 million.
The "beauty of the frontier" label still has a significant advantage for Dilraba.
But now, Bai Lu can at least stand in the same row as Dilraba when she participates in events.
That's already quite amazing!
Bai Lu has only been in the industry for two years, yet she has already reached this level.
As for Chen Keke and Tian Xiwei, they are also quite popular, and they may become top-tier actresses in a few years.
They all have great potential!
"Ugh!"
Yang Mi couldn't help but sigh and said that she couldn't help but feel a little envious.
Jiaxing works itself to the bone for such meager profits, yet it prepares for several projects every year.
The result is not as good as one of their projects!
"Honey, Lan Ke Studio can't stay like this every year."
"It's impossible for every project to have such high box office revenue."
"With so many movies being released right now, there aren't many that have this kind of box office performance."
...
Zeng Jia couldn't help but comfort her, saying that Lan Ke Studio's box office performance this time really did have a bit of a perfect storm of timing, location, and people.
"Who knows, maybe President Chen will assign another project to Lan Ke Studio at some point."
Yang Mi said softly, expressing her genuine admiration for Chen Jingyuan's judgment.
The projects I previously guided at Jiaxing were indeed successful.
Who knows, maybe the next film project will be successful too.
In the past, she didn't believe that anyone could have such good judgment, but in Chen Jingyuan's case, she really couldn't calculate it according to common sense.
Unfortunately, they had no chance with the Lanco Studios project.
Jaywalk Studio can't offer much help; Lanco Studio has no shortage of funds, Tencent has it, and it has no shortage of publicity.
Even when looking for companies to collaborate with, they will look for production and distribution companies.
Relying on her relationship with Dilraba and Chen Jingyuan is simply not enough!
Of course, Jaywalk Studio still needs to maintain a good relationship with Chen Jingyuan.
Even after the performance-based agreement is completed, Jiaxing will still need to maintain its market capitalization!
To maintain market value, a company needs to be profitable.
Just when Yang Mi was feeling troubled, the application for upgrading Lan Ke Studio to a company was finally approved.
Liu Yulan had rented an office space outside the city center long ago.
It's only about 200 square meters, but that's enough for us.
Currently, the number of employees at Lanco Studio, including all departments, is not large.
The annual rent is about 20 yuan, which is still within the range that Lanco Company can afford.
The studio was upgraded to a company, and everyone except Chen Keke, who was unable to return from the film crew, came.
For example, Bai Lu happens to be participating in an event in Shanghai, so it would be easy for Zhang Ruonan to come over.
Liu Yulan chose a high-end clubhouse and booked three private rooms directly.
One private room was for the artists and acquaintances like Jiang Qiumei, while the other two private rooms were for the staff.
Currently, all departments of Lanco Company are in their initial stages, and no department heads have been directly appointed.
Instead, it gives many employees an opportunity, and the next six months will be a period of evaluation.
Those with outstanding abilities will be able to become department heads.
The idea came from Liu Yulan, and even Chen Jingyuan was somewhat moved by it.
My mom's skill is really impressive; she can quickly see through everyone's abilities.
Although many of the people recruited came from some of the larger film and television companies.
But every company has its slackers, otherwise they wouldn't have left to come to Lanco Company.
Just as Chen Jingyuan was pondering, a figure wearing a hat and mask suddenly walked into the private room.
"Dilraba?!"
Chen Jingyuan was stunned for a moment and exclaimed in surprise.
He really didn't expect Dilraba to show up at the upgrade dinner party at Lan Ke Studio.
"A surprise!?"
Dilraba's gaze fell on Chen Jingyuan, and her soft, sweet voice rang out.
She actually missed Chen Jingyuan very much.
The two have never stopped communicating on WeChat.
Even though they hadn't seen each other for a long time, it didn't affect their relationship.
It turns out that Dilraba knew that Lan Ke Studio was going to upgrade to a company dinner, and she also happened to have a trip to Shanghai.
I was planning to give Chen Jingyuan a surprise, and I had already discussed it with Aunt Liu.
Reba had already added Aunt Liu's contact information early on and they occasionally exchanged messages.
Liu Yulan naturally cooperated fully with this "future daughter-in-law's" request.
Moreover, Dilraba is now a top female star, so she is very satisfied with having such a daughter-in-law.
"What a pleasant surprise!"
Chen Jingyuan stood up, gave Dilraba a hug, and said.
He and Dilraba haven't seen each other for a long time, mainly because it's not convenient for him to visit her on set.
On the surface, the two didn't seem to interact that much, but their relationship became apparent once they visited each other on set and developed a good rapport.
There's no need to risk being targeted by paparazzi!
