Chapter 472

After dinner, Han Fei was responsible for washing the dishes, and Li Yanan commanded. Well, he was bossy, which was a little like Dong Jie.

"What are you laughing at?" Li Yanan glared at Han Fei. The woman's intuition told him that this guy must be thinking about something evil.

Han Fei said, "you look like my mother."

"Bah." Li Yanan's face turned red.

Han Fei suddenly remembered that there seemed to be this paragraph in the film version of Yitian Tu Long. Jet Li's Zhang Wuji met Zhao Min in the restaurant. He was upstairs and Zhao Min looked back on his horse.

Zhang Wuji said, "she looks like my mother."

Xiao Zhao: "beautiful, just like your mother?"

"You look like my mother, too."

After hearing this, Li Yanan spat at Han Fei: "it's all a mess." then he slipped out of the kitchen.

The reserved item on New Year's Eve is to watch the Spring Festival Gala. However, after watching it for less than half an hour, Li Yanan began to yawn: "this Spring Festival Gala is getting more and more boring."

Han Fei agreed: "forget it, don't watch it. Quante is lip synching, or play games."

"What are you playing? It can't be a double row?" Li Yanan said he didn't play mobile games.

"You wait," Han Fei said, taking out a box from the TV cabinet. Inside is a brand-new PS4 plus VR suit.

"Hey, what did I think it was, VR?" Li Yanan said he was a master of VR.

However, she did not see Han Fei's meaningful smile after she put on VR glasses.

When Li Yanan was moving according to the system instructions, Han Fei had stood behind her and hugged her waist. Li Yanan was stiff and just wanted to take off VR glasses.

But Han Fei breathed in his ear: "don't be afraid, continue to play, I'm a telegraph pole, and I promise not to mess around."

Li Yanan hesitated and continued the game

One night without a word, when he had breakfast the next day, Han Fei found that the pot had been fried on the Internet, at 0 a.m. on the first day of the new year.

Byte officially released a new film of happy film and television on the network.

Indeed, byte played very well. The increment of new users of several of its apps directly burst the table. Although the revenue from advertising fees is not enough to offset the 630 million copyright fees, the subsequent revenue is far greater than this figure. It can be said that this transaction is a net profit.

However, many fans are disappointed with the film and even say frankly that no wonder Huanxi media wants to sell the film, because any schedule of the film will lose money except during the Spring Festival.

Yes, in the eyes of many fans, this film is a rotten film. Although it may not be too rotten to accept, it is definitely not worth spending more than an hour on a movie ticket.

However, some netizens said: don't ask too much for free. Just watch it. Anyway, it's very happy to see it without your brain.

Moreover, there are not a few netizens who hold this view, which is more interesting. Netizens always seem to have a high tolerance for free things, even if they clearly know that free is the most expensive, and the capital will make the money back from another angle.

But it still doesn't prevent them from flocking to free. Han Fei has been turning over netizens' views on this matter. He can't help sighing. This is the last thing he wants to see.

It is not easy for the mainland film market to develop from a desert to today's scale. After nearly 50 years and the efforts of several generations of film and television practitioners, today's atmosphere has been created, and more and more people are willing to buy tickets to watch movies.

However, through byte operation, some less determined fans began to waver. Since they can see movies for free, why spend money? Just because the movie and video effect of the cinema is better? I look great at home alone.

Interestingly, the operation of byte also indirectly had a great impact on the Spring Festival Gala. In the past, everyone sat in front of the computer on the first day of the new year, and suddenly the Spring Festival Gala program was basically reserved. However, on the first day of the new year this year, it was all about movies.

This is very uncomfortable. Sometimes not being scolded doesn't mean how well you do it, or maybe no one pays attention.

Undoubtedly, this is another great blow to the Spring Festival Gala program group. Alas, I miss the days when someone scolded before.

Unknowingly, the time came in March, and the epidemic still showed no signs of improvement. Many cinemas began to find that the epidemic seemed to be very different from their expectations.

We were still thinking about controlling the epidemic in February and reopening in March. Maybe we can catch up with the upsurge of retaliatory consumption by fans.

However, No. according to various indications, there is no sign of improvement in the epidemic in a short time. Maybe we should be ready for a protracted war.

This is the last thing cinemas want to see. Not opening means that they have to continue to invest and have no source of income. What's more, opening is still far away.

In doing business, investment is not terrible. The terrible thing is that you have invested a lot, but you can't see the hope of income, which makes many cinema owners start to think about whether this deal is worth continuing.

Undoubtedly, there will be a loss for a long time, and even if the ban is lifted, the business of the cinema will not be good. It may face a loss for half a year or even a year. This account will be calculated by individuals.

As a result, some cinema owners also began to look for a way out. However, in this situation, is anyone willing to take over this hot potato?

"The boss of South China cinema has begun to look for a buyer. Do you want to contact him?" Li Yanan looked a little excited. Such a big commercial acquisition is available but not required for any professional manager.

"How much is the price?" Han Fei moved in his heart.

"15 billion. If we really talk about it, it should be compressed to about 12 billion."

Han Fei shook his head: "The old fox really doesn't shed tears when he doesn't see the coffin. The main cinema stores of South China cinema are concentrated in coastal areas, with a total of 283 self operated stores and 75 franchise stores. According to the current market value of South China cinema, it's really worth this price, but it's not the same as before. What's the decline in the stock price? He won't cut any meat. Let's ignore him and contact some small cinema lines first 。”

"HMM." Li Yanan nodded.

Sure enough, another half a month later, South China cinema has begun to openly find someone to take over in the circle. 58% of the shares are priced at 13 billion. If this price was last year, someone would have sold it long ago. However, we all see the market this year. Who is willing to buy an industry that is bound to lose money?

Even if they are interested, they are watching with the mentality that buying early is better than buying late. There are not many real contacts with South China cinemas.

Soon, the time came to the end of March, the epidemic still showed no signs of improvement, and soon another large cinema began to seek sale in the circle.

This thing is just like the stock market. Once the brake is turned on, it can't stop the car. When many small and medium-sized cinemas look, so many large cinemas are starting to sell and follow the trend. They look like they can't sell late.

However, they soon found that even if the price fell again and again, there were many inquiries and few genuine purchases.

To put it bluntly, we are all waiting and watching. If the epidemic will end soon, naturally some people are willing to gamble. After all, the summer file is a wave of upsurge and can make profits immediately. Naturally, some people are willing to do it.

However, by the middle of April, the epidemic situation was still very serious, which made many buyers retreat, because China's film market had another two months of weakness after the end of the summer file. If the ban was not lifted during the 11th period, it would be scrapped this year.

Moreover, there is a very serious situation that we have to consider. During the epidemic, we can't do business. Many companies begin to cut salaries and lay off workers. Immediately, everyone is running short of food. How can we still want to go to the cinema? One or two hundred yuan at a time is also a big expense.

As a result, the whole cinema market began to panic. The share prices of all cinemas were falling sharply, and some cinemas even fell by the limit for a week in a row.

Obviously, capital has abandoned the cinema, and those who run slowly can only become cut leeks.

At this time, Han Fei said that he could enter the site. Li Yanan began to contact some small cinemas. According to Han Fei's previous plan, South China cinema is actually the first choice. However, after a long investigation, it is found that the risk of acquiring South China cinema is very high.

First of all, Jiang Hua, the boss of South China cinema, has only 58% of the shares of South China cinema, while other shares are distributed in the hands of many large and small shareholders, including even the shares held by the government. Theoretically, all decisions of South China cinema need to be reported to relevant departments.

In addition, as a listed company, the acquisition of South China cinema will be very troublesome. There are too many things involved. It can't be done in a year and a half.

Therefore, Han Fei quickly shifted his goal and focused on some small and medium-sized cinema lines. There are only more than 30 cinemas and more than 80 cinemas. However, the advantage is that they are not concentrated in one region, but scattered all over the country.

Han Fei can buy these small and medium-sized cinemas and then re integrate them into a new cinema.

Moreover, these small and medium-sized cinemas are not listed, and their equity is relatively clear. More importantly, the price. Because there is no market share, the price of these small and medium-sized cinemas is their own actual price without any premium. They are basically at a loss during the epidemic.

"Why not wait? Look at the current situation, the summer vacation schedule has completely disappeared." Li Yanan suggested.

At this time, it was mid May, the epidemic situation finally improved, and many communities began to unseal. However, they only resumed work and production, and all entertainment related industries were still unable to operate.

Han Fei shook his head: "don't wait. Let's go. Now the price has overwhelmed the bottom. If they press down, they may take some measures to recover their losses, which will be unfavorable to us."

"Moreover, after the cinema acquisition, we still need to spend a lot of energy to integrate. Time is too precious for us."

After hearing this, Li Yanan thought it was reasonable, so he began to officially offer prices to those cinemas who had in-depth contact before. Of course, the price must be compressed again. In the negotiation, it is impossible to show his cards to his opponents as soon as he comes up.

The owners of those small and medium-sized cinemas were on the verge of collapse one by one. At this time, someone officially sent an offer. Naturally, they were overjoyed. Although the offer made them want to curse their mother, they could not resist the pressure of survival in the end, so they had to force themselves to sit down and negotiate.

Negotiation is a very grinding job. Han Fei and Li Yanan can't do it. Fortunately, they have begun to resume work and production. After being isolated for 14 days, the employees have already gone to work.

Nowadays, it's not easy to have a stable job, so the employees work much harder than usual.

Of course, due to the epidemic situation, it is certainly impossible for these bosses to come to Beijing for negotiations. All negotiations are completed through video.

Of course, this is only a preliminary agreement. Next, Han Fei has to send people to verify the real situation of these cinemas, so as not to make a joke when he finds that the goods are not the right version.

The time soon came. In early June, the summer vacation schedule was officially announced to be completely ruined, which once again plunged many cinemas into despair.

Because Han Fei is relatively secretive, and those small and medium-sized cinemas are not very noticeable at ordinary times, people in the circle thought that Han Fei just wanted to copy the bottom, and didn't realize that he was playing a big game of chess.

Until the end of June, Han Fei began to gradually complete the acquisition of these cinemas and re established a special cinema management company. Only then did insiders find that Han Fei has quietly mastered 326 cinemas.

Although these cinemas are scattered, the number of cinemas in first tier cities is not large, and most cinemas are still distributed in third and fourth tier cities, it must be admitted that integrating these resources together will definitely be a powerful new cinema.

Soon, the media reported the news, and netizens had no special response to it. For them, whether they bought cinemas or not did not affect them to watch Han Fei's films.

However, it has caused a lot of vibration in the circle. You should know that "bird film and television" has a very complete industrial chain, from audio books to online dramas and TV dramas, to movies, animation, as well as surrounding toy factories and theme parks.

These are very high-quality assets, but Han Fei always entered the industry too late. He can only be regarded as an excellent content manufacturer. No matter how good the content is, it also needs a good platform to promote it. This is also the reason why Han Fei was careful before walking on thin ice.

However, now Han Fei has a good cinema in his hand, and he has completely mastered the platform resources. From then on, he is the person who is qualified to sit on the table and divide the cake, rather than waiting for others to divide the cake and hand it to him.

However, it is obvious that the cinema peers are not happy with such a cake distributor. They even feel that Han Fei has touched their interests.

Unfortunately, now they have been unable to protect themselves, and there is no way to pose a threat to Han Fei.
