Chapter 1087: .From the outside to the inside

In fact, Wang Yifan did have the same idea.
Ari Media, Wang Yifan is still very vigilant.
Because intuition told him that even if the film globalization strategy of Ari Media failed this time, they would never give up this plan so easily.
This plan is different from the movie big data strategy.
The failure of the movie big data strategy is due to the current technical problems, and artificial intelligence is far from being able to replace humans.
Therefore, the movie big data strategy must fail.
At least big data can be used as an aid, but it is unrealistic to dominate filming and so on.
But the film globalization strategy, in fact, is not because the strength of Ari Media is not enough, but because it is really a crime of non-war.
"Infernal Affairs" is naturally not suitable for North American audiences.
Therefore, failure is inevitable.
But it doesn't mean Ari will give up.
From the standpoint of Huaxin, Wang Yifan naturally did not want the Ari family to be dominant.
Naturally, it will not provide Ari Media with guns and ammunition.
"The bargaining chips offered by Ali Media really moved my heart. In other words, it's hard not to be moved. I can tell you the truth. The conditions of Ali Media are estimated to attract many big directors." Cao Meng groaned for a moment. Said.
Wang Yifan nodded, he was not surprised at this point.
After all, who doesn’t love money?
"Actually, joining Ari Media may not have as bright a future as you think!" Wang Yifan said with a smile.
Cao Meng frowned and asked, "How to say? Does Director Wang know something?"
Wang Yifan smiled and nodded: "If nothing goes wrong, Ari Media will still not give up its film globalization strategy, because this is different from the previous big data movie strategy. Big data is something Ari Group already has. Ready-made, even if it fails, it doesn’t hurt. Because of the role of big data, although it can’t dominate the movie, it does have a big role in publicity."
"The film globalization strategy is different, because Ari has already spent huge sums of money to buy the imperial cinema. This capital is an extremely important investment even for a wealthy giant like Ari."
"Imperial Cinemas has almost no influence in China, but in the North American market, the Empire Cinemas is always the second largest theater. Moreover, the theaters have never been a high-return and high-yield industry, especially in North America. So, Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh The raccoon acquisition of the imperial cinema is definitely more than a pure investment in the cinema, because it makes no sense."
"So, this time the failure of "Infernal Affairs"'s globalization strategy will not allow Ari to change the basic strategy, but they will focus on other places and continue to try."
"Other places? You mean, North America?" Cao Meng was taken aback and asked.
Wang Yifan nodded and said: "Yes, Ari Media is in China, except for the channels of the parent company of Ari Group. To be honest, they don't have much advantage compared to other giants. If they just want to live with the light, If you are an ordinary giant company, then maintaining the status quo is indeed a good choice, but Ari’s culture is a wolf-like culture. No matter what he does, he is very aggressive and aggressive."
"They will never be satisfied to be a giant film and television giant, so they can only open the situation from other places."
"As for the Ari Media, which owns an imperial theater, it obviously has a greater advantage in North America than any other giants in China. Therefore, if I guess right, the next step, Ari Media’s biggest It may be that we continue to wave money and directly acquire North American independent film labels, and then engage in a Sino-American co-production project, because in this way, Ari can have a chance to break through. Relying on the North American market, then move to the Chinese market."
"Relying on Hollywood's mature film industry, in turn, counterattack the domestic market, for Ari, they do have a great advantage." Wang Yifan analyzed.
"Hiss!" Cao Meng took a breath.
However, think about it carefully, is what Wang Yifan said is possible?
There is really a great possibility.
Ari Media and the acquisition of the Imperial Cinemas with a huge amount of money, if the North American market is not opened, then the Imperial Cinemas will become a decoration, which is obviously not what Ari wants to see.
In China, Huaxin is the dominant one, and several other giants are eyeing Ari Media.
Coupled with the strategy of going from the inside out, because of the failure of "Infernal Affairs", it is estimated that Ari can see the current situation clearly, so going from the outside in becomes their inevitable best choice.
Once such a thing happens, then Cao Meng and others who have joined Ari's domestic directors will not have that important status.
Because if Ari engages in a gorgeous co-production, it is more likely that he will choose a Hollywood director.
Because Cao Meng and other major directors in China can only be regarded as major directors in China.
In the domestic Hollywood movies, there is no such thing as unsuitability. As long as they are operated properly, the co-production mode of Ari's variant will become their greatest weapon.
"However, if Ari Media did this, isn't it afraid of being said to have led a wolf into the room?" Cao Meng was still a little unwilling.
Wang Yifan smiled and looked at Cao Meng and said, "Bring the wolf into the house? It doesn't exist. As long as the Ari group is in China, there is no problem with this."
"Because the investor is Ari Media, it can be said that it is to let directors and stars in North America, Hollywood, and celebrities work for Ari Media!" Wang Yifan said with a smile.
Wasn’t that the case in the previous life?
Wanda bought Legendary Pictures and introduced Hollywood movies from the outside to the inside. I didn't hear anyone say that they were bringing wolves into the room.
Director Li became famous in Hollywood. The movie reached the domestic box office that swept a lot of tickets. He is not an investor yet. He is a director. He hasn't made much money. But who have you heard that led the wolf into the room?
So many Hollywood movie blockbusters are raging in China, and the companies that introduced the Guozi prefixes of these movies have not heard anyone say that they have brought wolves into the room.
Of course, this is indeed two different things.
However, Ali Media’s strategy of outside-in is indeed very maneuverable.
In fact, this method is indeed a very good method for powerful companies.
"Huh..." Cao Meng let out a sigh of relief.
"Director Wang, don't you like Ali Media?" Cao Meng asked again.
Wang Yifan smiled and said: "From the director's standpoint, I actually don't reject cooperation with Ari, but from the standpoint of Huaxin's shareholders, I really don't like Ari Media, because they do things so absolutely. Once If you succeed, you want to swallow it in one bite. And the point is, Ari is too rich."
"Moreover, do you think that after "Charlotte Annoyance" and "Infernal Affairs", Ari Media dare to continue to cooperate with me?" Wang Yifan asked with a smile.
Cao Meng was suddenly stunned.
Yes, now Ari can't be stupid and can't see it, Wang Yifan has been digging holes to bury them.
"Charlotte's Troubles" is better to say, "Infernal Affairs" is definitely a big hole Wang Yifan dug for Ari!
