Chapter 1057 Chapter 1059 [No two in the limelight]

  Xiang Nan and Ling Xiangqian also held a wedding in Shanhai City, and invited local relatives, friends, classmates, and teachers.

"Tiankuo, Qianqian, I knew you were promising, and you really didn't disappoint the teacher." Director Pan praised with a smile, "Work hard in the future, you are now the role models for our Zhenhua students, you must give them Take your lead."

  Xiang Nan is now a second-level associate researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, one step away from becoming a researcher. The level of a researcher is equivalent to that of a professor, deputy director level, and is still very prestigious.

   Not to mention that he has written so many best-selling books. In their Zhenhua Middle School campus alone, several copies had to be confiscated a day.

  Ling Xiangqian now runs a media company, and the videos she releases are quite popular. Especially after the launch of "Yellow Pizi Grave", they raised 100 million yuan, and they are properly successful people.

   Zhenhua Middle School has graduated tens of thousands of students over the years, and I have never seen anyone who is better than them, so everyone is proud of them.

   "Don't worry, Director Pan, we will continue to work hard." Xiang Nan laughed.

  …

  In addition to Director Pan, Teacher Wu Wenlu, Teacher Yu Dan, Teacher Zhang Feng, and Teacher Zhang Pingping, many students who stayed in the local area also came to the wedding, including Mi Qiao.

"Benben and I have now opened our own homestay, which is located in the suburbs of Shanhai City, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the environment is very good." She smiled and said to Xiang Nan, "Many people go to our place to play and live in our hotel. Shop, eat our skewers, you are welcome to play when you have time~”

   "Opening a store there will also help Mi Qiao recuperate." Ben Ben added, "She has been in a stable condition for the past few years, but she can't be too tired."

  Xiang Nan nodded with a smile.

  He just took Mi Qiao's pulse, but her illness still cannot be cured, so she can only recuperate slowly to prolong her life as much as possible.

   But seeing her living happily, he felt relieved.

  …

  In 2015, Lingtian Media, which raised 100 million yuan, made a much bigger move than before, and started shooting two TV series at the same time.

  One "Antique Bureau Middle Game" and one "Ghost Blowing Lantern: The Exquisite Ancient City".

"Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is still basically the original cast, the main character is Li Xian, the male second is Qiao Shan, the female lead Shirley Yang is played by Wang Zixuan (the little witch in "River God", Li Weijuan in "To Youth"), and the female second Yingzi is played by Zhu Yan Manzi starred.

  The total investment is 30 million RMB. After all, there are a lot of special effects used in this film, such as Jingjue Ancient City, Niutoushan Underground Palace, etc. It is impossible to do without 10 million special effects.

  "Antique Bureau Middle Game" is played by Xia Yu as Wishing, Qiao Zhenyu as Yao Otherwise, Cai Wenjing as Huang Yanyan... Xiang Nan has seen this version before, and I think it is quite good.

   Moreover, although Xia Yu and Qiao Zhenyu have become famous for a long time, their salaries are actually not expensive. Although Cai Wenjing played the leading role in "Huang Pizi Grave", the response was very good. But the popularity of online dramas is not as high as that of star dramas, so the pay is not high.

  The cost of this drama is also 30 million.

  …

   In 2015, the film "Looking for the Dragon", starring Chen Kun, Huang Bo, Shu Qi, and Angelababy and based on "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", was officially released, and then won a box office of 1.67 billion yuan in one fell swoop.

   All of a sudden, the popularity of the IP "Ghost Blowing Lantern" exploded. Countless film and television companies in the circle hope to obtain the film and television adaptation rights of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".

  Wanta Films, which spent 40 million to buy the film and television adaptation rights of eight novels, was the first to be called a fool. Only now do I know how cheap they got.

   It will take all eight books to be turned into movies. According to the quality and box office, it will not make a lot of money. What is 40 million, 400 million is not much.

  However, the movie and web drama adaptation rights of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" have been sold, leaving only the TV drama adaptation rights.

   TV dramas about tomb robbery are actually not easy to get stars. After all, tomb robbery is illegal and should not be publicized. Like the online dramas launched by Lingtian Media, the stories have been greatly revised.

  So no one dared to take the right to adapt the TV series "Ghost Blowing the Lantern". But now seeing the popularity of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is so high, there are still film and television companies willing to give it a try.

  Xiang Nan was also unambiguous, and directly called out a 10 million authorization.

   Anyway, he is not short of money now, whether he wants it or not. You must know that in these years, he has speculated in real estate, stocks and coins, and his net worth is not tens of billions, but also billions.

  Don’t dare to talk about arm wrestling with capital, at least you can achieve wealth freedom early.

   Moreover, he has just been promoted to a researcher. At a young age, he is responsible for leading a team to study astrophysics, and it can be said that he has become a technological leader in this field.

  So now he wants money, money, fame, and status. He doesn't need to look at the face of the capital, but the capital depends on his face.

  In the end, Huanrui bought the eight parts of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" at a price of 80 million. They are ready to take a gamble.

  …

  At the end of 2015, "Antique Bureau Middle Game" was launched on Tencent Video, and it received tens of millions of hits on the same day, with a total subscription of more than two billion, creating an astonishing profit of hundreds of millions.

   In 2016, "Ghost Blowing Lantern: The Exquisite Ancient City" was officially launched. This online drama is even more ruthless, with over 100 million hits on the day it went live. The total number of subscriptions is nearly 6 billion, and the profits created have even made Tencent Video popular.

   Therefore, in 2016, Tencent Video also invested in Lingtian Media.

  Lingtian Media has only been established for four years, and its valuation has increased from the initial one million level to the current valuation of 1.8 billion, which has doubled by a thousand times.

  Such a result naturally caused an uproar in the outside world.

  …

  But both Xiang Nan and Ling Xiangqian knew that the media reports were too exaggerated.

Although Lingtian Media had only 500,000 starting capital at the beginning, because of its symbolic price of one yuan, it got "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", "Tomb Raiders Notes", "Da Tang Di Renjie", "Old Things in the Wulin", "Tiankeng", "Antique Bureau Middle Game" and many other novels have the right to adapt online dramas, so its valuation is seriously underestimated.

  Based on the popularity of these IPs at that time, in fact, the valuation of Lingtian Media should be around 30 million. After all, so many popular IPs are also a huge intangible wealth.

  However, in media reports, what they pay attention to is [the language is not shocking and endless], naturally the more exaggerated the better.

  Actually, within four years, Lingtian Media’s valuation has doubled by 60 times, which is quite remarkable.

  After receiving the capital injection from Tencent Video, Lingtian Media has gradually become a film and television giant.

Later, under Xiang Nan's suggestion, it filmed "Dear, Beloved", "An Jia", "Little Farewell", "Little Joy", "Mountain and Sea Love" and so on. A small video media company has grown into a small giant in the film and television industry.

   As a result, Ling Xiangqian has been rated by the media as one of the most influential women in the mainland entertainment industry, stealing the limelight.

  …

  In 2017, Yu Zhouzhou went to Africa to gather folk songs, and encountered an epidemic there.

  After Lin Yang received the news, he immediately flew to her side.

  Although for so many years, Yu Zhouzhou's feelings for him have always been ambiguous, but Lin Yang never gave up.

   Yu Zhouzhou finally figured out that she really couldn't do without Lin Yang, at the critical moment of life and death under the raging epidemic.

  If she is sick and dies now, the person who is most sorry is Lin Yang.

  So she took the initiative to confess her love to Lin Yang, and in the end the two successfully held hands.
