Millennium director

Although Guangying Kuaibo has expanded its territory in Asia very smoothly and has now entered the era of defending the world, this does not mean that Wu Yuan will relax on the domestic market.

Although the domestic video platform market is relatively poor in the world, and it is normal for major video platforms to be unable to make ends meet, this does not mean that they have to give up the domestic market.

For Internet companies, the number of users is the most important.

And China is one of the most populous countries in the world, and it is an Internet power with hundreds of millions of netizens.

This market cannot be abandoned, but must be firmly grasped. It does not matter if there is a loss every year. As long as the number of users increases, the company's valuation will not be low, and it will have an advantage in financial capital operations.

"Of course, we should pay attention to the domestic market." Chen Dewei nodded in agreement and said, "This year alone, we have 22 self-produced dramas, including 4 S-level self-produced dramas, ensuring that one drama can be launched every quarter."

"The platform's suspense theater and youth theater have also developed very well and have attracted a group of fixed fans."

"Especially the campus youth dramas in the youth theater. Now our platform is the first in China. Not only have the previous youth campus dramas such as "A Love So Beautiful" and "A Love So Beautiful" led the new trend of domestic online dramas."

"After the launch of "My Hedgehog Girl" in April this year, the official blog Douyin exceeded 10 million likes, and it has topped the hot searches on multiple platforms many times. The popularity value has been the first in the site for many consecutive days, and it has also achieved very good results in Southeast Asia."

Speaking of this, Wu Yuan was also a little amused.

Before, Guangying Kuaibo began to build various theaters according to his instructions. The first one to be built was the Misty Theater, which was also a project he personally watched.

The effect is very good. Several web dramas from Misty Theater not only have good broadcast data in China, but also have achieved good broadcast results in Southeast Asia and Japan, making great contributions to the overseas expansion of Chinese dramas.

What Wu Yuan didn't expect was that the youth theater designed by Guangying Kuaibo later was the real killer.

He didn't get involved in this youth theater, which was completely built by Guangying Kuaibo platform. As a result, several low-cost web dramas that were supposed to appear on Youku and Penguin Video were taken down. After being broadcast online, they not only set off a campus youth storm in China, but also became extremely popular in Southeast Asia!

Several leading actors in the drama, such as Hu Yitian, Lin Yi, Shen Yue, etc., became popular in Southeast Asia and became top stars in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. They had to register an account on Instagram to interact with overseas fans.

Even these people received a lot of notices and activities in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. As soon as they arrived at the scene, they were blocked by local fans. The shopping malls and roads were crowded with people. Their popularity was not much different from that of Korean pop stars.

The web dramas and leading actors of Misty Theater, which Wu Yuan personally created, simply cannot achieve such influence.

It can only be said that without Wu Yuan's deliberate guidance, the mainland site of Guangying Kuaibo actually took this path, which still surprised him.

"We have to pay more attention to the fairy-tale idol drama." Wu Yuan said with some emotion: "In recent years, the three major platforms have been working hard on this theme."

"Fairy-tale idol dramas are also quite popular in Asia. In addition, Guangying Times has a fairy-tale movie universe, so we can actually dig deeper in this area."

"Just like Marvel has TV series such as "Agency of S.H.I.E.L.D.", "Inhumans" and "Daredevil" to supplement the movie universe in addition to its own movie universe."

"We can also make some TV series to supplement the fairy-tale universe. The specific details can be discussed with Guangying Times."

"Soul Ferry can't be made, but we can make self-made dramas such as "Tales of the Tang Dynasty" and "The Legend of Shushan."

Wu Yuan briefly mentioned an idea. After thinking about it, Chen Dewei thought it was not bad. Although Guangying Kuaibo is no longer a wholly-owned enterprise of Wu Yuan, it is still a brother company with Guangying Times. It is definitely a good choice to strengthen cooperation with each other.

Moreover, Guangying Times's fairy-tale movie universe is indeed well done. Developing some TV series around this movie universe can also bring a lot of fan traffic, which is a good thing for the platform.

Just like Marvel's "Loki", it just announced that it would be produced, and held a production conference, which attracted the attention of Marvel fans all over the world, and the expectations were full.

If he invited Hu Ge to shoot a spin-off drama of Lu Dongbin, at least the attention it attracted in China would definitely not be inferior to the attention of "Loki" in Europe and the United States.

"Okay, you can arrange the specific matters yourself, I just put forward a general direction." Wu Yuan patted his thigh, stood up, and planned to leave the company.

There is another company he didn't go to, but there is no need to go today, that is, Guangying Times Cinema.

In this period when everyone still needs to do nucleic acid from time to time, major cinemas across the country are naturally still in a gloomy look. Although they have resumed work a long time ago, they may not be able to receive ten guests a day. There is really nothing to say, they can only endure and survive this difficult period.

"By the way, this year's Venice Film Festival is about to start." When Wu Yuan, who was in a daze, took the elevator downstairs, he suddenly remembered this.

Zhang Guorong's "A Touch of Glass" finally chose to participate in this year's Venice Film Festival and has been successfully shortlisted for the main competition unit.

Today is August 28, 2020, and this year's Venice Film Festival will open on September 2 and hold a closing ceremony on September 12. American actor Cate Blanchett serves as the president of the jury of the main competition unit.

Cate Blanchett, the jury president, is a well-known international big devil. From 2008 to 2016, she was nominated for the Best Actress at the Academy Awards three times and successfully won the award with the feature film "Blue Jasmine". Her "acting school" label has been widely recognized.

From 2018 to 2020, she served as the president of the jury of the main competition unit of the Cannes International Film Festival and the Venice International Film Festival, becoming the double president of the world's three major international film festivals.

Her most famous role is naturally the elf queen Galadriel in the "Lord of the Rings Series". By the way, she also played Hela in "Thor 3: Ragnarok".

As I said, in this era, even the best actress has to play supporting roles in superhero movies~

But Cate Blanchett's acting skills are really amazing, and she is qualified to be the chairman of the jury.

It's just that Wu Yuan is not familiar with this famous Hollywood actress, and doesn't know what her film selection aesthetics are like. It's really unknown whether Zhang Guorong can win the award this time!

In a few days, the film festival will open. This year's Venice Film Festival adopts a combination of offline and online methods. Some invited and award-winning guests participate in the on-site interaction through video links.

Wu Yuan hasn't even asked Zhang Guorong whether the crew of "Glass Love" will go there in person or participate online.

I have to ask! (End of this chapter)
