Only Ye Qing and Dong Mei were left in the office.
Of course, things were not as Dong Mei imagined, so after Ye Qing signaled Dong Mei to sit down, he asked her what happened.
Dong Mei was very sad and helpless.
Last night, she received the news that the movie had been withdrawn, and she tossed and turned all night. She wanted to ask for help, but she didn't know who to ask for help except for Ye Qing.
Her connections were all in the film and television industry. Now that the top few big shots in the industry had spoken up, who would be willing to help her?
So early in the morning, Dong Mei simply took the earliest flight to Zhongyun.
She wanted to ask for Ye Qing's help, but after arriving in Zhongyun, she found that the young president was not someone she could meet whenever she wanted.
Even if there was a way to contact him, without an appointment, his assistant could only schedule a meeting on Wednesday afternoon, and it was only fifteen minutes.
Now she met him, and it was still crowded with Siemens, Google, Sony, and so on. These top bosses that Dong Mei couldn't imagine on weekdays called to make an appointment.
Dong Mei was a little flustered, which made her a little stumble when she described the events that happened in cinemas all over the country yesterday morning.
After listening to the story, Ye Qing couldn't help but want to be angry and laugh at the same time.
Those bosses were unwilling to give up the profits of traditional cinema chains, so they refused to cooperate with Monster Industries.
Before the company invited people in the film and television industry for a meeting, Ye Qing and the general managers had enough mental preparation. In fact, it was an unexpected surprise to be able to win over a group of second and third-tier film and television companies for copyright cooperation.
Ye Qing could also imagine that these bosses would not just refuse to cooperate verbally, and they would definitely take practical action.
But Ye Qing did not expect that they would choose this way of rejection that hurt the enemy by a thousand and hurt themselves by eight hundred.
Withdrawing this movie from Qingyu Media would certainly cause Qingyu Media to suffer huge economic losses, and it would also give a heavy warning to the remaining small and medium-sized film and television companies.
In this way, Monster Industries did not have any substantial loss. At most, the strategic promotion plan of film and television copyrights synchronized with holographic glasses encountered some obstacles.
On the contrary, those bosses also had to suffer from the loss of the box office of the cinema chain. Even if they were big, how could they be bigger than Monster Industries?
"Then this time, all of your theaters have been canceled?"
Dong Mei forced a smile and said, "There are some left, but they are all noontime venues in fourth-tier cities. It's still a question whether the final box office will exceed 500,000 yuan."
Right now, she felt like she was at the end of her rope.
The production cost of the new movie was more than 100 million yuan.
Not only did this cost all of Qingyu Media's working capital, Dong Mei also pulled in close to 50 million yuan of investment from several investors.
If she didn't give in, it would mean that this investment would be completely ruined. Not only would Qingyu Media not be able to keep it, the remaining 50 million investment would also force her into complete bankruptcy.
The fact that she had come to Ye Qing meant that she would not give in.
Now her only hope was that Ye Qing could reach out and help her for the sake of the cooperation between the two sides.
He didn't need much. He would use Qingyu Media Company and the movie's copyright to get a loan of 50 million yuan from Monster Industries. He would first repay the investors who had called the company after hearing that the movie had been banned.
Then the new movie was delayed.
Since those big shots had decided to ban the movie, they might as well completely withdraw from the traditional offline cinema model.
Now that the copyright of the movie was still in the company's hands, Qingyu Media certainly had the guts to delay the release of the movie.
Dong Mei was also confident in the quality of the movie. As long as the movie was delayed for half a year, when holographic glasses had a certain degree of popularity, Dong Mei optimistically estimated that the box office would reach around 100 million yuan.
This money would be used to repay the loan from Monster Industries. The remaining money would be enough to make a comeback.
Ye Qing was not optimistic about Dong Mei's plan.
Not to mention a loan of 50 million yuan, 500 million yuan was also a drop in the bucket for Monster Industries. But wouldn't this be equivalent to admitting defeat?
The ultimate goal of those big shots banning the movie was to hinder Monster Industries' copyright synchronization plan.
When had Monster Industries ever admitted defeat?
"Sister Dong, don't worry. This matter is because of us. I will definitely give you a satisfactory solution." Ye Qing leaned back in his chair and said with a smile, "Those old guys, didn't they want to cause trouble for Monster Industries and give those film and television companies close to us some color to see?"
"I'd like to see if their tree is thick enough, or if our Monster Industries is thick enough."
"I also want those film and television companies close to us to understand whether they can enjoy the shade under the big tree if they stand on our side."
"But the movie will be released in four days …" Dong Mei murmured, "It's difficult for us to take countermeasures in this time. The only way I can think of is to delay the release of the movie so that we can hold on to the value of our copyright. "
Ye Qing's protection made Dong Mei's heart full of joy.
But she thought about it all night last night and couldn't come up with a good idea.
The young president in front of her was not familiar with the film and television industry …
Ye Qing motioned for her to wait for a moment, then picked up the internal phone on the desk and asked Hong Tao to come over.
Five minutes later, Hong Tao, wearing holographic glasses on his face, rushed over.
At this time, Hong Tao's face was not tired from last night's meeting. He looked very energetic and seemed to be very excited.
After entering the door, Hong Tao first smiled at the strange guest on the sofa who was slightly embarrassed. "Boss, you were looking for me?"
"So far, how are the sales figures of the holographic glasses?"
Since Ye Qing asked, it meant that this strange guest was qualified to listen to these internal company data that were not confidential.
"Sales are very good." The smile on Hong Tao's face became wider. Perhaps the sales figures were the reason for his excitement. "From midnight to eight o 'clock in the morning, our official website and two online flagship stores sold nearly 150,000 holographic glasses."
"In addition, at the door of flagship stores all over the country, there was a long queue with an average number of 800 people this morning."
"I have asked our air logistics team to urgently restock the flagship stores. Consumers can pay the fee and receive the glasses after two o 'clock in the afternoon."
"That's a total of 500,000 sales?" Ye Qing nodded. He was also very satisfied with this number. "If we use the current sales data as a reference, how many holographic glasses can we sell in four days?"
"Four days …" Hong Tao paused for a moment, then pushed the holographic glasses in front of him and tapped a few times in the void with both hands.
"Boss, I referred to the sales data of our first-generation magic crystal mobile phone."
"At that time, the magic crystal mobile phone was the same as the holographic glasses. It was a new thing for consumers. There was no similar predecessor product."
"But the growth index of our holographic glasses is much higher than the first-generation magic crystal mobile phone, especially during the period from midnight to eight o 'clock in the morning."
"According to the data analysis, our sales can exceed 10 million in four days."
"Very good, very good." Ye Qing's confidence in his heart grew rapidly with this number. Then he turned his head and asked Dong Mei, "Sister Dong, do you know how many cinemas there are in the country and how many movie seats there are?"
Dong Mei nodded blankly. "I … I know."
"We did a statistics in March of this year. At that time, there were 9,965 cinemas in the country with a total screen size of 54165."
"As for the movie seats …"
"According to the calculation of an average of 70 seats per screen, it's … it's …"
