Chapter 397 Qizhou, here I come!

Lin Zhibai naturally didn't know that he had already attracted the attention of some people in Qizhou before he left. He spent the last few days before leaving with his family, enjoying the rare free time leisurely and opening the system to study. Check out your personal data panel.

ˆ【Guitar: 50】

  【Piano: 60】

  【Painting: 80】

  【Vocal: 86】

  【Calligraphy: 100】

  Guitar and piano are both musical instruments, but there is no urgent need for upgrades. Vocal music and painting have both reached the master level, and calligraphy has entered a miraculous realm. Lin Zhibai feels that his need for skill points is gradually decreasing.

 Subsequently.

Lin Zhibai looked at a project report of Kunpeng's various departments that Jiang Cheng sent to him recently. It included a summary of Kunpeng's profits in the past few years. It was obvious that the income was rising every year. Among them, the performance of Kunpeng Video is particularly outstanding, especially with the popularity of "The King of Masked Singer", the market share has reached as high as 28%!

  When I first took over.

Video sites are a mess.

With the support of Lin Zhibai's various works, it has now been fully implemented. The report finally mentioned that a brand new work will be launched tonight, which is expected to help Kunpeng Video's market share exceed 30%!

This work is called "One Piece"!

  To be precise, it’s the animated version of “One Piece”!

Because the "One Piece" manga continues to be popular and the animation has not yet been launched, fans' expectations are already very high. Therefore, Lin Zhibai feels that it will be impossible for Kunpeng Video to occupy more than 30% of the market share when this work is launched. question.

 Sure enough.

 That evening.

As soon as the animated version of "One Piece" was launched, the number of clicks continued to rise. Countless comic fans clicked in immediately. There were also some Evernight fans who had not read the original comic and also entered Kunpeng Video to watch out of curiosity. , and then the comment area quickly became lively!

“It’s finally aired, twelve episodes in one go!”

“The quality of the animation is good. It has not strayed from the comic adaptation. Luffy in the animation is even cuter than in the original work, and Soda is even more handsome!”

 “Wait a minute, Luffy’s voice is actually Sister Mei!”

 “Here, Luffy is a man, but he is matched with a woman!”

“The key point is that Sister Mei, a woman, can match the male protagonist’s lines, and the effect is so good. I almost didn’t hear it. So Bai Di’s voice switching can also be done by some top voice actors?"

 “Then Bai Di is more powerful.”

“The entire dubbing cast is very luxurious. This animation is worthy of me opening a membership for Kunpeng Video!”

“Fans of Mr. Hou, I haven’t read the original work, mainly because I’m not used to the comics, but the animation is really good. No wonder the comics are so popular.”

 “Master Hou is so fierce!”

  The animated version of "One Piece" has become popular without any suspense. It is also because of the popularity of this animation that the number of Kunpeng's membership registrations has soared!

 On the second day.

Jiang Cheng compiled the data immediately and sent a congratulatory message to Lin Zhibai:

  Kunpeng Video’s market share has officially reached 30%!

You must know that Shinhwa Video’s market share is only about 40%!

  In other words, in terms of video websites, Kunpeng and Shinhwa Video have already divided up 70% of Qinzhou's market, and can even barely compete in the competition!

Lin Zhibai smiled.

 “It seems that my second uncle is getting nervous.”

 The biggest reliance of Erbo's family now is Shinhwa Video. Now that there is a formidable competitor like Kunpeng Video, their family's life is destined to become increasingly difficult in the future.

Jiang Cheng also laughed.

He was originally worried that with the end of "The Masked Singer", the popularity of video websites would be affected.

Now that the "One Piece" animation has come out, this worry no longer exists. Jiang Cheng has even started to promote the animation to Qizhou, but it has been blocked by the relevant departments there.

“Sure enough, it is difficult for us to enter the Qizhou market easily.”

  When talking about Jiangcheng, I couldn’t help but complain: “Not to mention the various restrictions, the taxes and fees are too high.”

Lin Zhibai said: "That's why I want to go to Qizhou to open up the market. Just importing it won't work."

"yes."

Jiang Cheng suddenly changed the subject: "One more thing, boss, does he still remember "Glory of Heroes"?"

"Remember."

This is a multiplayer online tactical competitive game invested by Lin Zhibai, and the name was suggested by him.

Jiang Cheng said with some excitement: "This game has officially started internal testing. The response from players has been particularly good. The next step is public testing. It is estimated that the launch will make Kunpeng make a lot of money!"

"Um."

Lin Zhibai doesn’t plan to get involved too much in the game industry. After all, this is just a casual move at the beginning. You can earn as much as you can.

"Compared with this, I care more about how to open up the situation in Qizhou."

Although there is a movie, filming takes time, and Lin Zhibai needs to find a more efficient way to enter the Qizhou entertainment industry.

 “I’m also thinking about this question.”

Jiang Chengdao: "You also know that I have worked in Qizhou and know some basic conditions there. As a relatively unfamiliar face, I entered the Qizhou entertainment circle. If I want to quickly increase my popularity, I think there is a trickier way. Just participate in a variety show that is popular enough."

 “Variety show?”

“Yes, Qizhou is a well-known variety show continent. Even the top superstars in Qizhou will be regular guests or flying guests in some variety shows. If you are interested, I can help the boss make the selection.”

“Then you can take a look.”

It’s not like Lin Zhibai has never participated in variety shows.

 Previously, Lin Zhibai was the music director in "The Voice".

Later, I served as a judge on the program "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves".

Not to mention that he had a great time on the stage of "The King of Masked Singer" as the ever-changing star king.

 If there are suitable variety shows, it doesn’t hurt to go and play them.

 “Okay, do you have any requirements?”

“No script is required, just be more free. In addition, there is no need to consider music competition programs.”

Just finished participating in "The King of Masked Singer".

Lin Zhibai has no interest in participating in any singing competitions for the time being.

"Understood."

Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Then I'll try to find you a popular lifestyle variety show. Anyway, as long as the guests on this type of variety show are good-looking enough, they can usually enjoy it."

 There was a pause.

Jiang Cheng suddenly smiled and said, "By the way, are you interested in Lian Zong?"

Lin Zhibai immediately refused: "I won't go."

 Lianzong is a love variety show.

Jiang Cheng smacked his lips and said with some regret: "Lian Zong is so good. With the boss's appearance, he can definitely kill people... Then I'll go back and find someone else."

"Um."

Lin Zhibai said: "If it doesn't work out, I will plan a variety show myself and find someone in Qizhou to record it with me."

 “There’s nothing wrong with it.”

Jiang Cheng has no doubt that the boss has this ability, but this is not a good idea because it takes a long time to produce a new variety show.

 It is much easier to join a live variety show.

Kunpeng has developed in the past few years, and it is not without contact with some entertainment companies in Qizhou.

 Several entertainment companies have purchased Kunpeng’s variety show copyrights.

 …

afternoon.

Jiang Cheng sent Lin Zhibai another bunch of variety shows. Lin Zhibai looked at them and found none of them interested, so he simply put them aside.

 A few days passed like this.

 Finally it’s time to set off.

Lin Zhibai went directly to Xicheng Manor.

 Get on the private plane given to him by the old man and set off. The family members all put down their work today to see Lin Zhibai off.

Mom reluctantly said: "When you get to Qizhou, remember to call me every week."

"good."

 Brother Lin Shengtian smiled and said: "Market development is not easy. If you encounter difficulties, I can take time to help you."

Lin Zhibai nodded.

Sister's eyes were slightly red, and she hugged Lin Zhibai: "I went over there to take care of myself. I'll go see you when I have time."

Lin Zhibai: "Yeah."

Dad said: "Okay, let Xiao Hei get on the plane. The journey is not too close. Go home and see more when you have time. As for work, don't put too much pressure on it. It doesn't matter if you really can't do it well."

 “Okay, I’m leaving then!”

Lin Zhibai waved to his family, entered the plane and sat down.

 He was reluctant to leave his family, but since he decided to go to Qizhou, he must make some achievements.

 It is very convenient to have a plane.

 After more than five hours of journey, Lin Zhibai arrived at Qizhou.

There is a dedicated receptionist here, two people, a man and a woman, wearing uniform clothes and with the work badge of "Mythology Kunpeng Entertainment Company" hanging on their chests.

 The man wears glasses and is tall and thin. At this moment, he is bending down slightly and saying in a very solemn manner:

“Welcome Representative Lin to Qizhou, I am Wang Yue, the deputy manager of Shinhwa Kunpeng.”

 Finished.

 Wang Yue introduced: “This is Wu Xuan, an employee of our company.”

 “Hello.”

Lin Zhibai nodded.

Wang Yue asked tentatively: "Are you going to a restaurant next or eating at your residence?"

 “I ate it on the plane.”

Lin Zhibai said: "Send me directly to my residence."

Wang Yue immediately said: "Okay, please come with me. The car is ready."

  After a while.

Lin Zhibai got into the car.

 There is a dedicated driver to pick you up at the parking lot.

The female employee named Wu Xuan was sitting in the passenger seat.

Wang Yue was sitting in the back row with Lin Zhibai.

 The car starts moving.

Wang Yue said: "Representative Lin, Wu Xuan is the secretary selected for you by the above. Of course, if you don't like it, you can change it."

 “Just her.”

Lin Zhibai didn’t know anyone, so he just followed the arrangement first.

 Shinhwa Kunpeng Entertainment Company is a joint venture established by Dad and Jiang Cheng.

 The so-called superiors refer to them. Since he is the secretary they chose, Lin Zhibai can rest assured in terms of ability.

 “Thank you, Representative Lin, for giving me the opportunity!”

Wu Xuan quickly thanked her and at the same time peeked at Lin Zhibai in the front view mirror.

This Representative Lin is really handsome, and he is also a top calligraphy master!

 Calligraphers are artists!

 As for the artist, his status is very high in everyone's heart, not to mention that he is the grandson of the mythical emperor.

 Have money!

 Talented!

Lin Zhibai naturally didn't know what the secretary was thinking, so he casually asked about the company's situation.

Wang Yuedao: "Our company is mainly engaged in music and movies, but it is still in the preliminary stage and needs your leadership."

 “Are there any artists signed?”

"There are a few, but this is not our main business. Currently, the company is mainly busy with the filming of "The Nine-Rank Sesame Official"."

 There was a pause.

Wang Yue said: "Didn't Mr. Bu Yehou, the screenwriter of "The Nine-Rank Sesame Official" come?"

 “He will come in a few days.”

Lin Zhibai made nonsense, "You can just contact me through a single line, you don't have to worry about it."

"clear!"

Wang Yue is from Qizhou, but he has done information before and knows some things. For example, the Nightless Marquis never shows his face.

 For another example, Representative Lin is a very popular figure in Qinzhou!

Of course, because he is from Qizhou, he has no more intuitive concept. All the news about Representative Lin is hearsay.

 It remains to be seen whether this young leader is really good.

Of course, one must please the one who should be pleased, no matter what the opponent's ability is, but Wang Yue's attitude is very low:

“This is Qizhou Deep City. If you want to take a look around, you can ask Wu Xuan to be your guide tomorrow.”

"We are happy to help!"

Wu Xuan spoke immediately, and she was very responsive.

Lin Zhibai said without comment: "Wu Xuan, right? Let's talk about the entertainment industry structure in Qizhou."

Wu Xuan said: "Qinzhou is one of the three major structures of Shinhwa Tianguang and Nathan. Kunpeng has a faint tendency to become the fourth largest. But Qizhou is different. No company here is too leading. The largest companies are also very powerful. Close, among them the better ones are like Backlight Entertainment, Lanxin Entertainment, Crown Media, etc. I will send you a detailed information tonight."

 There was a pause.

Wu Xuan continued: "As for artists, there are four kings in Qizhou. Two of them are actors and two are singers. They are both top-notch superstars. There are also two queens. We collectively call them the 'Four Kings'." Two queens', one of them is called Qi Jianjia, the daughter of the chairman of Backlight Entertainment, who has a very special status in the entertainment industry, and the other queen is called Nightingale, the little princess of Crown Media, who is in a similar situation to Qi Jianjia, so the two The relationship is also more subtle.”

"Um."

Lin Zhibai listened and did not comment.

 Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of a single-family villa.

"Your father chose this place for you. He said that if you are not satisfied, you can change it. We have several alternatives."

"Let me see."

Lin Zhibai went in and walked around. The villa had two floors and a basement.

The layout is similar to the villa at home. Dad took the trouble, so Lin Zhibai nodded and said:

 “That’s it.”

Lin Zhibai is used to living in villas.

"Okay, this house has been decorated and there is nothing missing inside. If you have any additional needs, you can contact me or Wu Xuan. She lives in a nearby community, not too far from here. .”

“Well, you go back first. Wu Xuan remembers to drive me to the company tomorrow.”

"clear!"

 Wu Xuan is very conscious of being a worker.

 After the two of them left, Lin Zhibai walked into his bedroom.

 Opening the curtains reveals a huge floor-to-ceiling window. The scenery outside the window is beautiful, and the gardens and rivers are all very eye-catching.

The corners of Lin Zhibai's mouth raised slightly.

 Qizhou!

I am coming! —

ps: I just finished writing a big plot, which was written by Kavin, so I updated it very late. There are only so many words today, so I have to sort out the subsequent plot.
