"Actually, there is nothing to consider about this matter. I made up my mind when I was in the mainland. Otherwise, I would not have invested more than one billion US dollars in the mainland to build a film and television city. If I had not been like this Determination, John, do you think I will invest more than one billion? No matter where I put this money, it is a huge sum of money. With my ability, it is enough for me to just make movies. In a short period of time, it has doubled several times. So in the next few years, I will gradually fade out of the film industry and focus on the film service industry. Compared with the fierce competition in the film industry, At least there aren't many big bosses who really want to be in this kind of service industry, so if I do this, it won't be a loss. It is an industry that requires large investment. Without large investment, it will be difficult for you to start this industry. And now that I happen to have such capital, plus there are no additional competitors, I think if I do this, the effect should be quite good. Not bad." Li Mingbao said matter-of-factly. When he first wanted to work in the service industry, he had this idea in mind. The film service industry is actually a sunrise industry. Although to a certain extent, this service industry depends on the development of the film industry. If the film industry declines, then the service industry will definitely decline as well, so this industry to a certain extent , the initiative is not in the industry itself, but attached to the film industry. It is for this reason that people who have the strength to work in this industry are not very interested in this industry. Instead of working in the service industry, they might as well work directly in the film industry, which is more likely to make money. Some people who have no strength want to work in this industry, but the cost of entering the industry is beyond their ability to solve. To put it simply, those who are powerful are looked down upon, and those who are not powerful are looked down upon. And Li Mingbao happens to be such a heretic. Others don¡¯t know what the development prospects of the film industry are, but for Li Mingbao, it is not difficult to judge. Thinking about the oil and water in the film industry in later generations, Li Mingbao understands that the development of this industry is actually not much inferior to those in the financial industry. Even from a stable perspective, the film industry is more stable than the financial industry. The financial industry often encounters ebbs and flows, troubles such as financial crises, and political influences. There are quite a few things that can disrupt the stability of this industry. However, the film industry has basically not encountered too many troubles since its rise. Whether it is capital troubles, war troubles, or political troubles, the impact on this industry is , relatively few. Even major events like World War I and World War II had an impact on many industries. However, at that time, the film industry was developing quite rapidly. Not to mention being affected, it was promoted to a certain extent because of the war. So in terms of stability, the stability of the entertainment industry is quite reliable. Under such circumstances, if others are not optimistic about the film service industry, how could Li Mingbao, who has been there, not be optimistic about it? Now that there is no competition, plus relying on the mainland market, Li Mingbao has solved a big problem. A business that makes steady profits without losing money is much better than fierce competition with others, right? It¡¯s not like John didn¡¯t know about Li Mingbao¡¯s investment in the mainland, but before, John only thought that Li Mingbao¡¯s investment in the mainland was a normal investment and had little to do with other things. But now that Li Mingbao said this, how could John not know that Li Mingbao's investment is simply choosing a path for his future. Movies or TV shows are no longer Li Mingbao's core industry, and this film service industry, This is the core of Li Mingbao¡¯s future development. ¡°As for such a core business, unless Li Mingbao chooses to change careers, others will not be able to influence his judgment at all. Even he, John, cannot make Li Mingbao change his attitude. After understanding this, John¡¯s choice of Li Mingbao was more or less a pity. After all, no one can say clearly what the future of the film service industry is, especially for such large investments as Li Mingbao's. There is no precedent before, even if peripheral industries like Disney are doing well. The company's core business is actually not in such a service industry, so there is no reference standard at all. ¡°The prospects are confused, this is John¡¯s assessment of the film service industry. In John's opinion, Li Mingbao's ability in TV and movies is easy to judge. Although John does not want to admit Li Mingbao's ability in these industries, the fact is that Li Mingbao's ability in these industries, even in There are few people in Hollywood who can compare with him. Maybe some people in a singleIn terms of appearance, his ability is even more exaggerated than Li Mingbao, but in terms of comprehensive ability, at least John doesn't know who has better comprehensive ability than Li Mingbao. How could John not feel sorry for such a guy with a bright future for money, but now he only wants to be in a very different industry? After all, if Li Mingbao makes more movies and TV stuff in the future, John can also take advantage. But if Li Mingbao goes to a film and television studio, the advantage John can take advantage of will be much less. From the perspective of John's core interests and values, he absolutely does not want Li Mingbao to go into other industries. Even if this industry is closely related to the film industry, it is not in line with his interest standards. So under normal circumstances, John will pressure such a person to continue doing things for him. But unfortunately, such oppression has little effect on Li Mingbao. Although Li Mingbao's interests in Hollywood are quite close to those of Twentieth Century Fox, to a certain extent, he can also be said to be under the wings of Twentieth Century Fox. But Li Mingbao¡¯s DreamWorks is different from other companies that follow Twentieth Century Fox. The first thing is that Li Mingbao is the boss. Although he cooperates well with Twentieth Century Fox, if John wants to oppress Li Mingbao, , then Li Mingbao can also choose another company to cooperate. After all, with the popularity of DreamWorks and Li Mingbao¡¯s own strength, any giant company will not refuse such cooperation as long as they are not stupid. To put it simply, DreamWorks¡¯ The degree of freedom is relatively large, and they can live well without 20th Century Fox. Secondly, Li Mingbao's own capital is also quite strong, especially in terms of capital. If John really has a conflict of interest with him, John can't guarantee that the capital in his hands can perfectly suppress Li Mingbao. Not to mention sharing the same death, but there are also There is a high possibility of heavy losses. Especially now that the DreamWorks TV program production company is becoming more and more dazzling, Li Mingbao doesn't even need to do it himself. Those guys who smell the fishy smell will unite to kill John first, and then divide the profits. So when dealing with problems like Li Mingbao, the most John can do is influence Li Mingbao's judgment, and he is soft. If he is hard, the result will definitely not be what John wants to see. After thinking for a long time, John couldn't think of any way to make Li Mingbao change his mind. So I had to sigh and said: "So, your industrial transformation is irreversible?" "That's basically it. After all, with my current conditions, I must be very cautious when investing in such a huge thing. It's not just a matter of time. Things are decided by tapping on the forehead. I am not a giant like Disney. They have the ability and strength to flourish in many aspects, but I am different. Although it has only been a few years since I started my business, I am more or less lucky. In other words, I may not be able to achieve the results I have now. Now that I have decided to do this, I must do it well. Otherwise, I will not have more capital to do more things. . More than one billion US dollars, even for me, is equivalent to most of the assets. If such assets are not enough for me to continue doing it seriously, then I may not be able to do well in any industry." Li Mingbao said. Said seriously. "Well, regarding the core issues of your career, obviously I, as an outsider, cannot say too much. Since you have decided to do this, I won't say more. But I still hope you have time, You can pay more attention to the film industry itself. After all, in this industry, your talent is outstanding. If a person with such excellent talent stops making movies, it will be a loss to the entire industry. So you are doing it. When you are in your own industry, make as many movies as possible. This will not only not waste your talent, but also make your capital stronger. Of course, the most important thing is that I can also make more money. Money." At the end, John said half jokingly, half seriously. This is also John's bottom line. If Li Mingbao doesn't get involved in the film industry at all in the future, then the relationship between John and Li Mingbao will definitely not be close. Without the entanglement of interests, friends like them will definitely not have a long-lasting friendship. "Of course, I will definitely make movies when I have time. After all, movies are so profitable, it would be a pity to give up. I also have deep feelings for movies. Whether it is emotionally or career-wise, I will not be allowed to do so in the future. I¡¯m not involved in movies at all, so I have no conflicts with Franklin.¡± How could Li Mingbao not understand what John meant? The relationship between him and John was originally connected by interests. If the interest relationship with John fades away in the future, then his industry in the United States will definitely be affected to a certain extent. Li Mingbao will definitely not let it happen if he doesn't do what he is required to do and ends up playing himself to death. No??I often make money in the film industry, and occasionally I get a vote, and I can explain it to everyone. If we really want to occupy a certain market share in North America every year, that will be a real big trouble. But I'm afraid no one will mind if I occasionally make one or two movies to make money.
