Chapter 797: "Wolf Warrior 2" appears, all gods retreat!
Neither of them took a certain hand of them have seen the other party's current structure, top traffic and main content.
Especially the top traffic, which often falls below the bottom line.
The risk factor is very high.
And the existence of a certain audio platform also makes the other party afraid to make a cut.
The user structure of the two companies is also very obvious. Douyin is attacking from cities to rural areas, while WeChat is doing the opposite.
The popularity and growth of Tik Tok was so rapid that after just over a year online, it began to overwhelm the competition.
Due to the difference in user groups, Tik Tok has begun to take up a larger share in commercial activities and communications.
That’s why we dare to fight on two fronts, one at home and one overseas.
"But Mr. Chen still needs to make some efforts in overseas promotion. After all, you are an internationally renowned director and you know many celebrities."
Overseas launches can naturally also be done through celebrity endorsements, and with Chen An around, it’s easier.
Chen An nodded: "No problem, we must quickly seize market share."
Tik Tok needs to first take over ’s market share before continuing to expand.
"I have already found the overseas capital needed for Tik Tok. With the technical support of Douyin and the acceptance of 's users, it will be able to expand rapidly."
Chen An may not be very good at the specific operations, but he has thought a lot about it.
The road to overseas expansion is definitely not just about acquiring capital support is essential.
As an old partner, Goldman Sachs also brought Chen An along, and international first-tier investment funds such as GGV are optimistic about it.
There will be no shortage of funds, and the optimism of major capitals is also a huge advantage.
"Tik Tok's financing should come after the user transfer." Liang Rubo said seriously.
"Yes, Goldman Sachs, GGV and other investors have already contacted us, and they all have ideas."
"After all, our short videos are a new trend and are a good outlet."
Liang Rubo nodded in agreement. He was very optimistic about this trend and started to work on such projects after ByteDance incubated several products.
The short video field is very compatible with today's rapidly changing mobile phone technology.
As mobile phone technology capabilities are updated, matching software and methods are also needed, otherwise the update will be in vain.
Competition in the gaming sector is extremely fierce and has gone through countless iterations, so the emerging short video sector offers more opportunities in terms of entertainment.
Chen An thought for a moment, leaned back on the sofa and looked up, saying, "The first round of financing was after the user transfer. Fortunately, was acquired, otherwise it would be troublesome to compete on two fronts."
For , a merger and acquisition is probably the best option for Tik Tok. Otherwise, neither side will be able to benefit from the competition and it is very likely that the other side will be taken advantage of.
Fortunately, I have made some money over the years.
"Yes, a short pain is worse than a long one. At the critical moment, it is still Mr. Chen who can hold on."
Liang Rubo couldn't help but laugh. After spending a large sum of money to acquire , the situation became clearer.
What remains now is a vast overseas market.
Douyin's push algorithm has been iterating all the time, and it will also sweep overseas. After acquiring its biggest competitor, the road ahead will become much easier.
"Let's go online as soon as possible and conduct the first round of financing after the user transfer. It is important for Tik Tok to have more overseas funds."
The overseas market is huge, and Lightyear Jump cannot take it all alone. It must have support from overseas capital.
Of course, it can only be Tik Tok, it cannot be brought in.
A number of Hollywood blockbusters have been released non-stop from June to July, and the atmosphere has already heated up.
This is a good thing for the upcoming domestic films.
"Wolf Warrior 2", which has been promoted extensively on online channels such as Weibo, Baidu, and Tik Tok for more than half a month, is about to be released.
After a week of preview, the film took in over 800 million yuan at the box office and had very good reputation.
On the first day, major cinema chains scheduled 30% of the screenings, and Wanda even gave a full 40% of the screenings.
At the promotion site before the release, Wu Jing was still promoting it hard:
"I don't know about Hollywood, but my movie will definitely have a lot of big scenes. Although the filming was a bit difficult, the money was spent wisely!" "Also, the movie got help from the Navy, and the scenes of warships at sea will definitely satisfy the audience!"
He said a lot of things and was very attentive in promoting the movie.
“So Director Wu Jing thinks his Wolf Warrior 2 won’t be any worse than Hollywood military blockbusters?”
The focus of the reporter's questions was on this, and when Wu Jing mentioned Hollywood, it was as if he had heard a trigger keyword.
Wu Jing held the microphone and said with a smile: "Why, Hollywood movies are definitely better than mine? Domestic movies are definitely worse than Hollywood movies?"
"Don't mention me, Director Chen was the first one to disagree with this!"
“I just think we should learn with humility and move forward little by little!”
"Go to hell!"
Wu Jing couldn't control herself and cursed out loud!
"What era is this and why are we still living in the past?!"
"Do you really think every Hollywood movie is like Titanic or The Godfather?"
"If we make our own films about our own subjects, they will definitely be worse than the other party's, right?!"
The continuous questions stunned everyone at the scene, but Wu Jing was able to control himself and didn't swear out loud.
Seeing the other party's attitude, the reporter immediately sat down and did not dare to ask any more questions.
The matter quickly fermented on the Internet.
Times are changing, there are still plenty of sheepdogs, but there aren’t as many followers of a certain Lin as before.
Many people have begun to take the international situation seriously, and young people no longer look down on foreign countries as they did before.
There are those who attack and there are those who support.
No matter what, it at least increased the popularity of the movie.
Chen An naturally wanted to support Wu Jing, so he picked up his long-forgotten Weibo account and posted:
[I love eating dumplings]: "Just like Wu Jing said, I am the first one who disagrees. The Wolf Warrior 2 project is produced vigorously by Light Year Pictures and has the full support of relevant departments. It is our own military blockbuster production!
What era is this? You are still looking up at others. I will just say one thing: the movie is excellent and will at least break the current domestic box office record! "
The momentum cannot be weak, otherwise there will be a lot of media outlets complaining about it.
The population base is large, and 50 people walking around is a lot, and the media industry is not without them.
As a well-known Hollywood director, he is naturally qualified to say this.
No one in the country is more qualified than him to talk about Hollywood!
"Hahaha, well said. I finally got your account back?"
"It's just an era now, I thought it was before, I just don't understand what's the point of bragging about foreign countries every day."
"Just brag about it, it broke the domestic box office record, what's so great about this movie?"
"Hollywood has given you so many awards, and you still dare to say that?"
"."
Wu Jing was just a prelude. The presence of Chen An, an internationally renowned director, completely threw some people off guard.
How can you, who have smelled the sweet air, be so treacherously disloyal as to say such things?
Of course, Chen An wouldn't give a shit about them.
Anyway, the popularity of the movie has risen, and Chen An has been waiting for this work for a long time.
The news that "Chen An said: Wolf Warrior 2 will break the domestic box office record!" was everywhere.
The movie was officially released on July 7.
With 30% of the screening schedule, the film will be screened on a large scale in 8 cinemas across the country.
And "Wolf Warrior 2" did not disappoint the theaters.
A total of 71% of the market share was captured!
The box office on the first day exceeded million!
The movie also led the box office among a string of other movies released during the same period, and lived up to the screening schedule given by the cinema!
And the word of mouth exploded instantly after one day of release!
