China Entertainment 2000

In the past, Xiaoma's first choice would have been to continue to grind down. After all, the most important thing for Tencent Group, which has gradually got on the right track, is to reorganize its business and develop slowly.

But Microsoft's claim to fame is really inappropriate - it presses harder and harder and enters the market in a high-profile manner.

Due to Microsoft's famous name, everyone at Tencent is somewhat anxious. In any case, this world giant's most direct opponent after entering the country is them.

MSN and Microsoft Mailbox are no longer threats visible to the naked eye. They are dragon-slaying knives that have been laid across the necks of their little penguins——

At least this is what anyone looks at now. They are also a little numb internally.

Mainly, the mailbox business is currently a mail-in-mail existence for Tencent Group - QQ mailbox has been tepid since they were launched in 2002, even if they copy some of the excellent features of other peers, it will not help.

Otherwise, Xiaoma wouldn't be eyeing Foxmail, which is owned by Guiyi.

"If that doesn't work, talk to them about shares. This should make some mergers and acquisitions less difficult."

Xiao Ma pushed up his glasses, looked around and said his final plan: "You can also see Zhouyi's influence. After QQ's third anniversary celebration, the number of new users and returning users driven by him hit new highs.

"Not to mention that he is not short of money at all now. With the capital injection from Guiyi held by Zhou Yi behind the Foxmail software, it will only expand faster in a short period of time..."

These core user growth data are only known to the people sitting here in the entire company.

It only took Guiyi less than four years to go from being ridiculed in the past to being treated as a guest in the investment circle.

Cheng Hao, who was pushed to the front of the stage, attracted a lot of attention instead of Zhou Yi, but those knowledgeable in the industry basically knew that the latter was the mastermind behind the scenes.

For many companies that need investment, Zhou Yi, an angel investor, is simply a perfect existence - he only invests money and does not interfere.

Even if they have a seat on the board of directors, Guiyi's representatives are very low-key and basically do not dictate the company's development matters.

At least that's what Guiyi's current record looks like.

Another point - Zhouyi's cash flow is all high-quality cash flow, clean and pure.

And it’s still a lot visible to the naked eye.

"I still don't understand, what do those people in Qatar think? Do they really not regard money as money?"

After the meeting, the vice president smoked cigarettes all night without even thinking about where the Qataris got so much money.

Fifty million a year, $200 million after tax in four years—after tax!

The next day, due to the confidentiality of the itinerary, many Internet users who had not known that Zhou Yi had quietly returned to China woke up and suddenly discovered that in addition to the Hollywood elevator door, the latest hot topic about Zhou Yi on the Internet was another Qatar endorsement incident——

The original source "can no longer be tested". After all, the main thing of the wildly growing Internet today is news flying all over the sky.

"WTF?! How much?!"

"It's actually true?! I thought it was just fake news on the Internet last night. Why are there so many newspapers reporting on it this morning?!"

"Amortized equally, after tax, it's 50 million U.S. dollars a year. The current ratio of U.S. dollars to RMB is just over 1 to 8.27, which means the minimum is 50, 80 or 40..."

"I'm so proud of you! This endorsement contract alone is worth RMB 413.5 million a year? That's ridiculous! The most powerful money printing machine in the entertainment industry?"

"What, the top five box office sales in the domestic film market last year are not enough for Zhou Yi to make endorsements this year..."

"Top five at the box office? Be bold, the top ten at the box office last year together were not enough!"

At the end of the world, the fan circle belonging to Zhouyi is having a carnival.

What's more, they directly presented the top ten figures for the domestic film market last year: "Cell Phone" 53 million, "Harry Potter: The Chamber of Secrets" 52.22 million;

Next in order are the two parts of The Matrix, both with around 43 million, followed by "Pirates of the Caribbean" with 41.6 million, which is supported by Zhouyi's popularity.

"Heroes" has 41 million, "The Departed 3" has 36 million, "Finding Dory" has 35.53 million, "Terminator 3" has 28.32 million, and "The Dragon Reborn" has around 25 million.

The box office revenue of the ten movies together is just over 400 million yuan, which is a little lower than Zhouyi...

What's even more terrifying is that Zhou Yi's income is directly after tax, while the movie box office income has to be divided layer by layer.

"The ultimate embodiment of a singer's commercial value, Zhouyi: I'll hit ten!" 》

An article that I don’t know where came out specifically summarized the online data of netizens. After writing it, it was published on the four news portals of Sohu, Sina, NetEase, and Tencent. It directly gave the domestic entertainment industry a new year in 2004. The first shock since!

Compared with this news from Zhouyi, the hidden rules of famous directors such as Zhang Beard are trivial.

Zhou Yi's personal mobile phone even received a lot of curious calls asking for confirmation——

For example, Fan Xiaopang is still filming "A World Without Thieves".

"Is this price real or fake? Is it really that much money?" "Really."

"Idiot!"

Because he was too shocked, Fan Xiaopang, who was still on the set, lost all emotional control the moment he received Zhou Yi's personal confirmation, and uttered a curse word in shock.

Feng Dapao, who is currently directing "A World Without Thieves" and is ambitious to become the number one director of domestic commercial films, is sitting behind the camera and taking a rest. I don't know why, but after hearing the news about Zhou Yi's real one against ten, he suddenly felt a dull sense of frustration——

The goal that I have pursued for most of my life is not even as good as the endorsement that Zhou Yi received...

Because of the outrageous figures and the arrogance of the big dogs not to take money as money, almost all domestic entertainment pages left the headlines to Zhouyi on the 5th——

"The Light of the Chinese Music World Zhou Yi: The Brilliant Bloom of Commercial Value"

"Strength creates legend, charm conquers the world"

"The commercial value is highlighted and the Book of Changes conquered West Asia"

"..."

This time, not only those old acquaintances, but also the Beijing News, which was founded in November last year.

Yes, Beijing News.

Don’t think that this newspaper is high-end because it is more focused on current affairs. In fact, it also reports on entertainment news——

"The Light of the Chinese Music World: The Brilliant Bloom of Commercial Value".

“In today’s highly competitive global entertainment industry, endorsement contracts are undoubtedly the top priority for celebrities.

"Recently, a piece of news that shocked the entire entertainment industry came. Zhou Yi successfully won a four-year endorsement contract worth a total of US$200 million. This feat is not only a monument to the singer's personal career, but also a milestone for the Chinese language. A great leap forward in the commercial value of the music industry.

"Since his debut, Zhou Yi has set off wave after wave of craze in the Chinese music scene with his unique music style and extraordinary singing ability.

"From classic love songs to dynamic dance music, from lyrical slow songs to culturally connotative national sounds, Zhou Yi has demonstrated his profound musical attainments with a variety of music styles. Each song is like a bright pearl, embedded in the Chinese language. In the long river of music.

“This time he won a US$200 million endorsement contract, and the result is no accident.

"Zhou Yi's commercial value has continued to rise in the past few years, and he is now the number one person in the domestic entertainment industry.

“Not only has he made outstanding achievements in the field of music, he has also shown extraordinary influence in many fields such as fashion and charity. He has also become the first singer in my country to perform on the World Cup finals stage.

“The reason why Qatar chose Zhou Yi as its publicity ambassador is because of his unparalleled popularity and global appeal...”

The words of praise throughout the article are not complicated, and Sun Yanzi reads it very smoothly: "Okay, Zhou Yi, this is the first time that an official paper media has reported you in such an exaggerated length."

Zhou Yi, who was eating porridge with eggs, fried dough sticks and meat buns, didn't even bother to raise his eyelids. He let her sit in the chair and finish reading with a smile: "Don't read this kind of inferior newspaper. You haven't noticed this type of newspaper." Is this reporter the only one who broke the news about my endorsement amount in the newspaper?”

"?"

ah?

Sun Yanzi, who had been smiling just now, was suddenly stunned: "Then... do you want to find someone for public relations?"

"Public relations? What kind of public relations? I earned it for nothing, it's not black money."

Zhou Yi put down his chopsticks with a toothpick in his mouth and sneered: "It's just a dozen, I'm not afraid of flattery."

The golden body is already formed and he came from the right place. Who dares to touch him?

It was too much of a fuss for him to say.

Not to mention anything else, in order to buy a football player Neymar in the future, Qatar will directly add 220 million euros after tax to his account and let him pay the liquidated damages himself.

After that, he was given a contract with a salary ranging from 167 million euros to 267 million euros, which really brought a little financial shock to the world of football.

In order to host the World Cup, Qatar spent more than 200 billion US dollars, which directly exceeded the total cost of all previous World Cups.

After all, he had experienced the shock of the white turban. Regarding this number, he could only say that he was not disturbed at all.

If it weren't for the wrong times, he would have gained more points no matter how high or low he was.

He is now more popular than Michael Jackson in East Asia.
