Chapter 105 The Ba people start to do mergers and acquisitions
When he met Zhu Chi, Zhu Chi, who was holding a dog in a convenience store, would not make people think she was an internet celebrity at all, but in fact she had to spend a considerable amount of time in front of the camera.
However, Chu Yuanxi was not very concerned about this, because his bottom line for Baren Media signing artists is that he would do it as long as he didn't ask weird things or do things.
The so-called slutty operation, he remembered that when a trainee in a talent show posted a photo of his Weibo, he actually pried out the slutty in the photo of an island actress, clicked on his own, and then poked it out as his own beautiful photo! At that time, he blurted out when he saw the news: "I, Chu Yuanxi, thinks you are the number one in slutty operation!"
In short, the specific business is fully delegated to the responsible person. What Baren Media wants is the result, not the process, and Chu Yuanxi is concerned about the finished product, not how the finished product is made.
After Yang Yuanmei's brief introduction, Chu Yuanxi stood in the film room and was about to start the conversation, and then found that some little girls below began to shine. Today was a meeting. The artists who wanted to be aware of the form of the meeting were actually not unfamiliar with the form of the meeting, but today they were adjusted and became "performed" in others on stage. There may be a "handshake" session later, but there is no "handshake coupon".
I heard Chu Yuanxi say, "I'm very happy to meet all the real people. In fact, I have been on the video for a long time. Today, I haven't communicated with Mei Yangyang before, so there may be some things that Mei Yangyang has said. I can play a role in checking out the gaps, which is my personal expectation."
Speaking of this, Chu Yuanxi stretched out three fingers: "First, I hope that the company will fulfill its obligation to inform when signing a contract with you, and the obligation to inform the performing arts industry.
I heard from Mei Yangyang that some of you have acting experience, some are small internet celebrities and models who hope to transform into the entertainment industry, and some are amateurs before, so I am very frightened and I am afraid of delaying everyone.
The artist industry is very cruel. I am not a serious media artist agent, so I am not afraid to tell everyone the truth. Successful and famous artists are of course very glorious, but there are most of them under the base of the pyramid. I am particularly afraid that the company will not say it thoroughly, otherwise the gap between reality and expectations will be too big."
In fact, what Chu Yuanxi was afraid of was that amateurs were not mentally prepared to get involved in this industry. They only saw the glamor of celebrities and making money while lying down. Those who had already been involved in the industry certainly did not have this problem. Yang Yuanmei did not guarantee him that she had fulfilled her obligation to inform, but this was very critical. He did not intend to "trust" Yang Yuanmei, and had to say it in person.
In Internet development, this is called "repeated confirmation". I think Yang Yuanmei rolled her eyes at most. Unexpectedly, Yang Yuanmei said: "Actually, Mr. Chu doesn't have to worry at all. Our artists must have at least basic qualities after entering the company. Even if they didn't, you can tell what kind of living environment the artists in the Universe Country are. In comparison, the conditions for domestic artists are actually quite good."
Chu Yuanxi thought to herself that you are quite proud of your appearance, and you know that you are called Mr. Chu! Yang Yuanmei not only rolled her eyes, but she actually dared to snatch words! In Baren and Xiaokang, no one had ever interfered when Chu Yuanxi officially started his speech.
"Well, Mei Yangyang is right. I am willing to cooperate with people who understand me, and are afraid of being confused." Chu Yuanxi glanced below when he spoke, and saw that these contracted artists were very consciously setting a distance, full of Nordic social feeling. The mask was so meaningful. It would be great if the employees of Baren were so conscious, and they had to learn more from Alibaba.
To be confused, an artist became famous a few days ago and was detained for mask fraud. He was from a first-class domestic agency and was a fellow student of Monsanto.
It can be seen that relaxing the humanistic care for artists is terrible. The company is already very embarrassed now, and Chu Yuanxi is not like Baren.
Chu Yuanxi, the young artists in the audience, are not familiar with them, but they are famous for their low cultural level of artists in the National Dynasty. I think Baren will not be much better, so it is very necessary to communicate with them well.
Regarding the second point, that is, what is a wise man, he expressed his feelings: "Why should Mei Yangyang bring you to the company today to take a look? It's not just to feel the atmosphere of the group company's entrepreneurship, but mainly I want to talk to you. What is a wise man?
Understand what your demands are, understand what the external environment is like, understand how you should formulate a career plan, and how to use your advantages to match the resources that the external environment can match. This is a wise person. Specifically, are you a musician, a singing and dancing artist? Or an actor?
Just now, Mei Yangyang said that the living environment of domestic artists is better than that of the Universe. I think this is apart from the perspective of this. The Universe is harsh because of its high level and fierce competition, but correspondingly, more standardized, and development models are open, so artists don’t have to be confused. And the upper limit is also high, and it is a little bit too late, and bulletproof, which is related to the cultural atmosphere of others and the public’s acceptance of idols. In the jargon of our mobile Internet, it is called the market mature and the degree of user cultivation.
On the contrary, there is no obvious definition of artists and actors in China. In fact, the same is true for Baren. It’s not that they don’t want to define it, but that the general environment is like this, and we take the initiative to follow the trend. But this disadvantage is also very obvious. I believe that if you don’t say everything, someone will definitely be confused. Where is the direction of efforts? Where is the resources? Baren Group has a lot of resources, but it is definitely impossible to squander at will. So you all have to focus on development and try to match your publicity capabilities as much as possible."
Speaking of this, Chu Yuanxi took back his second finger. In fact, he was quite sorry, because Baren may not be able to give his artists much resources this year.
"The Unrighteous King" wants to follow the hard-core martial arts route. The so-called hard-core means that you cannot use flirting and flying around with your wires. In the end, it depends entirely on the later stage. What you need is to punch the flesh, a strong sense of blow, and the movements make people look energetic.
Li Zifeng himself also needs to undergo high-intensity training, otherwise it is not appropriate to act. He still has a strong foundation. He has acted in many costume dramas, and has a bodybuilding figure, which can completely support the tough style.
Li Zifeng didn't come today. He is still filming the short video unit series of "The Unfaithful Lord" with the team. People in the film and television industry who have work to do recently are not worried about holidays or holidays, and this is also considered to be a practice instead of practice. When the movie starts filming, the intensity will definitely be higher than that of short video units.
Moreover, Baren Information is promoting a plan to edit the short video unit drama "The Unfaithful Lord" into an online movie and then go online. This will definitely require the starring actor to fill the camera. This website is also looking forward to it. It is said that the content presented at that time will definitely be completely different from theater movies.
In recent special period, all theaters have been offline, so the Internet has become very popular. The number of effective views from the first to the fifteenth day of the lunar month has more than doubled compared to last year, especially the "Fat Dragon" which has transferred the theaters, with extremely impressive data.
The mainstream tracks are still fantasy and ancient costumes, with more than 10 million yuan being distributed everywhere, which is a big explosion. Considering that various film and television projects are difficult to start filming, the playback cycle of these films is definitely longer than normal times, which can be said to be double happiness.
Although Baren Group doesn't look down on this little money, it doesn't prevent Chu Yuanxi from supporting this magical operation. This is called a small amount of trial and error in the Internet industry. Anyway, there is not much investment, so it's okay to look at the user's barrage.
However, this group of students, the male artists of the National Chao, are obviously mainly cream-like young actors. Even if the Ba people sign the contract, it is a little better, and it is impossible to violate the market rules. This movie gives them one more year to do special training, which may still be expected. It is definitely too late now, unless there are special talents in it plug and play.
The special feature of this film is that the main purpose of filming is to promote overseas and make a name for itself in Europe and the United States, so there is no need for mainland stars. In other words, there is not much difference between letting the three little ones or to let the pure newcomers go.
As for the well-off movie "I'm convinced", it should be said that Zhu Chi is still willing to be the heroine Chu Yuanxi fulfilled her wish. And knowing that she can play such a role, other artists will definitely not be selected. At most, they will be a supporting role, and there is no difference between them and Hengpiao.
As for variety shows, unless Baren Media personally creates a special online variety show for trainees, it will definitely not be their turn to go on. This is the cruel reality. It is the most important thing to establish your own personality through Baren Information's self-media channels within a foreseeable time and to create your own fame.
This is also what Chu Yuanxi hopes to tell them in person. Why did Kun sue his old boss before he appeared in "Idol Practice"? His group was so terrible and had no resources. If he had long had resources, he would have been out with Kun's ability. If he didn't terminate the contract, he would have died. The most important resource for the artists of the Celestial Dynasty is actually young, and the golden period will pass after a few years. He can't be a young man and a young man. He can't be a young man and has a good appearance. He can even be a beautiful woman who has seen him for 4,000 years, but he can't be a good person.
However, this also shows that the road for domestic singers is too narrow, and the total resources are too limited, so there are naturally few people allocated to them. Europe and the United States have enough stages to allow Mike Jackson, Beyoncé, and Madonna to reach the peak. No matter how good the domestic singers do, it is difficult to reach the heights that Jolin Tsai and Luo Zhixiang once reached.
So Chu Yuanxi actually doesn't want Baren to sign an artist and let them go on the singing and dancing route.
"The third point I want to say is actually this. I hope you come to the headquarters more often.
The ones who signed a contract with the company are the employees of the company. There is no difference between you and the employees who do it and videos. If you want to say that the contract type is different, Qi Yu, who is now a host at Mango TV, signed a contract with the company two years ago than you, and in fact there is no difference.
I know that Baren Information often sends work to the media, and you will appear according to the script, and the media will also provide homemade videos for the information. Is this good? Whether it is good depends on your initiative. If you wait passively, it will be a big bad. I know that Mei Yangyang is asking for mentors for you, and the training in traditional arts should be able to keep up, but artists also make content, so you must have your own content creation ability.
Although domestic artists do not have rigid requirements in this regard, if they follow the trend in this regard, they can only wait for opportunities, small opportunities. However, if you have the ability to content, you will have connotation and characteristics, which is much easier than if you accidentally become popular by your appearance.
Why do you hope you will come to the headquarters more? Because Baren Information has a large number of content creators, especially videos. Their job is not to write a press release for you to package, but to make content. If you have the desire to further your content, you should communicate with them more and tailor the appropriate content for yourself, rather than passively waiting. Waiting can't be tailored.
Let me put it this way, since I chose this industry, I really hope that you can seize the opportunity and make a name for yourself. But Baren Group is not a typical media group. We are a mobile Internet company and believe in opportunities belonging to prepared people. I don’t know what the corporate culture of other media companies is like, and what kind of artists are prone to the top. What I personally can promise to you is that Baren Group will never delay truly talented people.”
Chu Yuanxi has been busy with all kinds of things recently, and it is rare to take some time to meet all the handsome guys and beauties. Of course, he left immediately after he finished speaking. As for how to communicate with the brothers of Baren Information, it is of course the matter between Yang Yuanmei and Lu Yu.
There are three major events for him today. The first is that Yuan Lu promised to get the demand for community control software. Chu Yuanxi, the divided version of the software, actually has no requirements. The only requirement is to retain the signature right of the screen animation. Writing this app is provided by Xiaokang Life. This requirement is natural and protected by copyright law. Soft writing is also a work.
The second thing is that Xiaokang wants to carry out an important cloud recruitment, and the time is set at night.
The third thing is that Liang Kenian had previously thought of two goals suitable for ba people for mergers and acquisitions. Among them, Liang Kenian was contacted by the claw machine himself.
This company is called "Ten Dynamic Culture", but it did not reject the kindness of Baren. The other party had explored the economic issues of the Pacific Economic Cooperation for a long time in his early years, and then decided to focus on offline businesses in 2017, and regard scenarios and derivatives as the most important business closed loop.
Most of the transactions were also offline, but now the cash flow broke and it suddenly went down. Not only did the claw machine fail to work, but the offline derivatives distribution industry based on claw machine was greatly affected. At this time, either large-scale layoffs were made, but the business would definitely collapse, or you had to find money to maintain it. Of course, there was another option, which was to sell it at a reasonable price.
In fact, this can be regarded as a high-quality asset. If it weren't for the long-term economic winter that had been maintained for a long time, people might not be willing to sell it. They would have been able to persist in doing loans. Chu Yuanxi valued them more that their claw machines and their own stores, rather than relying on shopping malls. The largest store invested more than 10 million yuan, covering an area of nearly 1,000 square meters, and it only took more than half a year to prepare. The energy spent is not reflected in the financial statements, but it is very valuable.
As a result, February was the peak season, and I didn’t know how much I would pay for the early preparations, otherwise the cash reserves would not be bottomed out immediately and were bought by Chu Yuanxi.
The company's merger and acquisition was only 30 million yuan, which was basically based on net asset appraisal, but the requirement was absolutely not to lay off employees. This requirement is also a reasonable requirement to ensure the stability of the team, and Chu Yuanxi had no reason to disagree.
What he has to do now is of course complete due diligence, otherwise the other party will still have several hundred million in debts on his back, which will be broken. There are many examples of having to pay off debts according to law after the merger and acquisition. At that time, the contracts need to be signed tightly and no loopholes can be left. In addition, it is difficult to survey personnel, because there are hundreds of employees, distributed throughout the country, and the monthly labor cost is more than two million, but it is difficult to understand this at all.
Of course, at this point, the merger and acquisition of Shidong Culture has basically been completed, and there is nothing that seems like a mess. Both parties are more sincere. This due diligence work also requires Cao Shan to participate. She was very excited recently because Chu Yuanxi finally negotiated with the five gods to inject capital.
Not only that, but also injecting ten-move culture, which is a feeling of hell and heaven for her. In particular, the claw machine is actually a sunrise industry, including the cultural and creative industry itself, which is the sun at the ** o'clock in the morning, and the market in the second half of the year may exceed expectations.
However, Chu Yuanxi is not as optimistic as Cao Shan. He repeatedly told her to control her cash flow, then try to integrate and train employees and practice internal skills as much as possible. Only in this way can she prepare for the market recovery.
Another company is a film and television post-processing company called S Space, which is very good at making special effects. The boss is a person who has drunk Hollywood industrial ink. Of course, film and television post-processing is not just about making special effects.
The boss Chu Yuanxi also pulled Lu Yu to chat with him because it was different from Shidong Culture. Acquisitions can be roughly divided into two categories, one is to acquire the other party's assets. For example, Alibaba's acquisitions are basically the same. Acquisitions of Ele.me, Koala requires the other party's assets and resources, and the management team is not important.
Including Shidong Culture, the management team is actually not important. Cao Shan will definitely reorganize it after taking it over. What matters to the other party is assets.
Another type is to acquire the other party's team, which is valuable to people. The S space obviously belongs to the latter because they do not have any valuable assets, including intangible assets, but people are very valuable, mainly because the founder is valuable. The acquisition target was recommended by Yuan Mu, who has invested in the film and television industry and related industries before.
The other boss’s surname is Tang. According to Yuan Lu, his experience, perspective and working style are said to be rare in China.
