Who are you calling powerful?

Beijing, a studio

The place is not big, about tens of square meters, with a screen-like hut in the middle, facing the shooting team.

There is a stool and three chairs in the hut, and all of them are already occupied.

One of them has a thin face and wears glasses. On the left is a gray-haired old man with squinted eyes, and on the right is a young and handsome guy.

This is the recording site of "Qiang Qiang Threesome" on Phoenix TV. The three people were introduced just now. They are the host Dou Wentao, the guests Ma Weidu and Wei Yang.

"Qiang Qiang Three People Walk" is a talk show, the program mode is that three or four guests sit at a small table and discuss some hot news or topics or opinions to a certain extent.

What's interesting is that the programs are just discussions and expressing opinions, often without arguing right or wrong, or seeking answers, which is a bit like "gossip about the world, talk about the world".

This program was previously affiliated to Phoenix TV, and now its influence is more on the Internet.

This program has a relatively certain threshold, mainly because the audience is a young group with a certain level of cultural knowledge.

To put it bluntly, it is young netizens, college students, white-collar workers, petty bourgeoisie, literary youth, angry youth, leading party, etc., and these people are often the main force in the film market.

Therefore, in order to promote the movie, it is very common for the organizer to come to this show for a while.

It's just that the "style" of the program is relatively high, and many viewers are also quite disgusted with this kind of "advertisement". They can't promote it too clearly, and it's a bit of meaning that can only be understood but not talked about.

As a businessman + wit, Wei Yang is actually a high-quality guest that "Qiang Qiang Threesome" likes very much.

However, Boss Wei used to promote TV dramas more, and TV dramas were more popular with groups of people, and Wei Yang focused on TV platforms at that time, so he was not very interested in this program. It was not until "Rising Fame" that the two parties reached a cooperation.

Wei Yang's publicity schedule was tight, and he had just arrived for more than an hour, put on a little makeup, exchanged greetings with Dou and Ma, and was directly ready to record.

This is relatively rare in variety shows, but "Qiang Qiang Threesome" was originally a chatty interview variety show.

This show doesn't even have a specific outline or script, but a general framework and a few themes are given.

Wei Yang is well-informed, but such a "casual" well-known variety show is rare, and even many interviews are "more professional" than this show.

But selfishly speaking, Wei Yang still appreciates this casual and relaxed recording atmosphere.

For good interviews and interviews, the most important thing is to give the guests a relaxed and down-to-earth chat atmosphere, so that the chat is more comfortable, and it can also go deeper into the heart accordingly.

After taking the seat, I said a few words, the director asked about the situation, and after getting accurate feedback, announced the start of the film.

The recording of "Qiang Qiang Threesome" officially started.

Compared with ordinary programs, Dou Wentao's opening remarks are very perfunctory, summed up in one sentence, and then he begins to introduce the guests.

"Actually, there should be no need to introduce it. Teacher Ma is an old friend. There are probably not many people who do not know Wei Yang."

Dou Wentao skipped these useless links and greeted Wei Yang directly on the show, seemingly chatting, but actually entered the show.

"Wei Yang is coming to our show for the first time. Just a simple question, have you watched it before?"

"Seen."

Wei Yang nodded: "It was not very convenient before, but later on, if it is convenient to surf the Internet, I will check it out when I have time."

"I'm honored, honored, our program has another celebrity audience, let's gossip about what variety shows or programs you usually like to watch."

"I don't have any specific choices. I watch what I want. I also watch domestic and overseas, interview games, blind dates and job hunting, treasure hunts, and "Hundred Schools Forum". I am very kind to see Teacher Ma today."

Ma Weidu smiled, this guy often has a sullen face, no matter whether he smiles or not, he always gives people a sinister feeling.

"Then we are acquaintances."

Dou Wentao approached cheerfully: "I'm surprised, you actually watch so many programs, I think you should be very busy."

"Busy, but also relaxed."

Wei Yang smiled and explained: "Except for the early days of starting a business, I have actually been looking for ways to relax and ease myself, and try not to let myself completely fall into work."

Later he added: "As a creator, the most taboo is to work behind closed doors, so sometimes watching movies, entertainment, and news is both relaxing and recharging, and maybe inspiration comes from it."

Wei Yang's words are not nonsense, the more people rely on inspiration and creativity, the more they must pay attention to the outside world, and understand all miscellaneous things, otherwise they will be "outdated" and "have no common sense".

Therefore, watching variety shows and watching short videos is "not doing business properly", and screenwriters and web writers are actually half-work and half-play.

Although Wei Yang is a copywriter, many plots and some plots also need to be original and optimized, which cannot be separated from external information.

Decades of habits in his previous life have already caused Wei Yang to develop occupational diseases. When encountering a certain story or event or even a character with a distinctive personality, his first reaction is whether it can be adapted into a film or television, or combined into a storyline.

Dou Wentao and Ma Weidu are actually cultural people. They have also worked as directors, screenwriters or book writers, so they understand what Wei Yang said.

After chatting a few words on this topic, Dou Wentao finally turned the topic to "Being Famous and Li Wan" through creation.

"Where did you get the inspiration for this movie in the first place?"

Movies I watched in my previous life.

But this statement certainly cannot be said, Wei Yang has already thought of the reason, talking (hu) talking (bian) and (luan) talking (zao).

"The original source of this movie is the Blizzard Villa model, with a fixed scene, multiple people suspect each other, and sh will find the murderer in the end."

"Later, when we were discussing the script, the screenwriter and director had a heated argument, which gave me inspiration."

"I was wondering if this scene could be combined with Blizzard Villa, a story about the crew and the murder."

"We didn't want this story to be too dark, so we thought about whether we could incorporate comedy into it again, and even overturned the setting of finding the murderer in most suspenseful themes, but revealed the murderer's card, and then reversed the truth of the case."

"In this way, the script slowly took shape..."

According to the publicity plan, when "Qiang Qiang Threesome" was broadcast, the movie had already been released for two days, so a few spoilers are harmless.

Dou Wentao was very generous, and the three of them only discussed "Rising Fame" for four or five minutes before finally shifting the topic to other topics.

"As far as I know, the Blue Whale company under your name mainly makes TV dramas, why do you choose to make movies now?"

"Make money."

Wei Yang's straightforwardness even made Dou Wentao of the old Jianghu a little tranced, because most people still have a certain affection for movies, especially people in the entertainment industry.

Ma Weidu was curious: "Don't TV dramas make money?"

"Earn, but not as much as movies."

Wei Yang does not hide his pursuit of money and career: "Entering the film market, on the one hand, is to open up new business for our company. Walking on two legs is more stable and brisk than one leg. On the other hand, the profits of films are indeed higher than those of TV series. High, and it will get higher and higher in the future.”

Looking at the two laymen who were somewhat dazed, Wei Yang gave an example.

"Currently, the TV drama market is mostly a buyer's market, and most of the prices are calculated according to your cost, so the profits of many projects are not as high as imagined."

"In the film market, there are dark horses that can be small and big. For example, last year's "33 Days of Broken Relationship", the box office share was more than ten times the cost. If other benefits are included, the rate of return will be a very scary figure."

Dou Wentao questioned: "Not all movies are "33 Days of Broken Relationship"."

"That's right, there are very few such dark horses. Many movies can't even be released or lose money when they are released. In terms of risk, movies are several times that of TV dramas."

Wei Yang nodded to admit the disadvantages of the film market, but he still believes that it is impossible to do business without taking risks.

"The domestic film market is a blue ocean. Ten years ago, Director Zhang's "Hero" was 200 million+, which was already a breakthrough in history. Even now, it may not be able to reach the top ten of the year."

"The market is constantly progressing, and it is making great strides. 300 million, 500 million, 600 million, Chinese-language movies are constantly and extremely quickly refreshing the history of the box office."

"I predict that in the next few years, the box office of domestic movies will blow out, and it is not out of reach for Chinese-language movies to reach 1 billion+. Maybe it will be next year or the next year, or even by the end of the year."

"In such a huge market, the income and profits have been greatly increased, and the risks have been offset to the greatest extent. In other words, risks are worth gambling."

In terms of the film and television market, although Wei Yang is not a super boss, he is also a full-fledged expert. At least Dou Wentao has no confidence to break up with him.

He also had no intention of arguing with Wei Yang, and just joked: "Why not summer vacation."

Wei Yang shook his head with a smile: "Bragging in front of the camera, I'm afraid of being slapped in the face."

Dou Wentao seems to appreciate Wei Yang's candid attitude towards money, and also feels that Wei Yang's analysis of the film market just now is very courageous.

So he wanted to further discuss business with Wei Yang, and he even came to ask Wei Yang how to manage money and make money from the perspective of an investor.

"I also said in a program before that as far as individual investors are concerned, within ten years, buying a house is a relatively stable and stable investment project."

"Except for buying a house."

Buying a house to preserve value does not need to be reminded in this year, but anyone who understands economics knows that house prices cannot fall sharply in a short period of time.

However, many people are still confused about how much profit they can make by buying a house, and not many people point to this to make money.

Although Wei Yang occasionally promotes buying a house, he basically only mentions value preservation and financial management, and won't talk about other things, so as not to be labeled as a guide for real estate speculation.

Just because everyone knows that buying a house preserves its value, Wei Yang's answer is not "very sincere", and Dou Wentao wants to dig some serious information.

Wei Yang hesitated for a moment, but still revealed a wave of secrets, saying that the secrets are a bit too much, investment institutions with a longer-term vision, and even entrepreneurs know it well.

"As far as I can judge, in the next decade or so, the development of mobile Internet will become one of the mainstream markets for business."

"Mobile Internet?"

Dou Wentao still has an understanding of this concept, and couldn't help but ask: "Is it convenient for Fang to disclose a few areas that you are more optimistic about?"

"In the big direction, e-commerce and live broadcasting have excellent prospects, but in the small direction, I think e-sports is also a bit exciting,"

The few mentioned by Wei Yang are relatively new and popular industries, and they can even be said to be open secrets in the investment industry.

Those who have the ability to intervene have already known it, and have even begun to plan their actions. Those who are not able to intervene will not gain much if they know.

As for e-sports, it is still in the wasteland development period, but Wei Yang is not interested in this industry and has no plans to get involved, so it doesn't matter whether he speaks or not.

If there are investors who really listen to him and have a certain interest in e-sports, it will be considered a merit for him to make large-scale investment at this moment.

Boss Wei knew it well, most of what he said were areas where he didn't want to participate or didn't care if he said it or not.

He really likes and wants to participate in the investment, and he can't disclose the projects that have been intercepted. He is holding back in his heart.

After listening to the few projects that Wei Yang said, Dou Wentao immediately gave up. Although he didn't know much about this aspect, he also knew that it was not something he could afford.

Ma Weidu was even less interested from the beginning to the end. He belongs to that kind of old-school person, and he is from the antique class, so he knows how laymen are killed by playing.

He would not touch such a new industry, he would only make money that he knew how to make.

Therefore, the two of them were not very interested in continuing this topic, and quickly shifted the topic to emotional aspects.

One of the characteristics of "Qiang Qiang Threesome" is "vigorous". This group of people chatted very openly about the scale of gender topics, and even talked about "surnames" unabashedly.

This is hard to see in mainland variety shows, so variety shows like "Qiang Qiang Threesome" and "Kangxi Is Coming" are very popular on the Internet, and to some extent it is also related to their large scale.

"Are you bothered by some of your so-called [Playboy] comments online?"

"sometimes will."

Wei Yang said frankly: "But most of them can be thought about. If you are a public figure, or even an artist, it is difficult to avoid public opinion in your private life, and it is inevitable to be labeled as entertainment."

"Do you refrain from discussing your private life?"

"I understand the thoughts of outsiders, but I don't like this. I believe that no one likes their private life to be exposed to the public, but there is no way. When you become a star artist and benefit from it, then these are what you pay for it. price."

"Talk about a sensitive question, have you ever been tempted by someone, for example, have thoughts similar to being married for a lifetime."

"have."

"who?"

Wei Yang smiled and shook his head: "I won't tell you."

Wei Yang doesn't care about some euphemistic relationship issues, and is willing to talk about them occasionally, but he doesn't want to talk about the so-called "Xiasanlu" issues.

It's not that he can't accept these large scales, but that he doesn't want people to think about it.

Dou Wentao was sober, aware of Wei Yang's resistance, and quickly shifted to other aspects.

Aside from this little awkwardness, the three of them had a very happy chat.

After recording the show, Wei Yang exchanged contact information with the two of them, maybe it will be useful in the future.

For example, Ma Weidu, who is considered an expert in the antique world, and has a great network, if he finds something later, he can find someone to appraise it.

As for Dou Wentao, Wei Yang appreciates his character, but the two of them have some disagreements in some concepts, and I'm afraid they can only be ordinary friends.
