Chapter 125, Rank Promotion, Reveals
Chapter 125, Rank Promotion, Reveals
Huang Xiaoming can be considered a celebrity with capital, having invested in multiple companies and amassed a fortune of over a billion yuan.
The problem is that this net worth still has limited influence on the TV station.
There are different kinds of capital; for example, there is a gap between Huang Xiaoming and Huayi.
Huayi is no longer in the same league as Tencent Video and Tencent Pictures.
Huayi's market value has now dropped to 300 billion yuan, and it continues to decline.
While it still has influence, it has clearly fallen behind internet platforms such as Tencent.
Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the Douban reviews for "Fighter of the Destiny" have remained stable at a passing grade.
Chen Jingyuan was already very satisfied with this rating!
It's much better than before, with both TV broadcasts and online viewership being quite good.
Although its reputation was so-so, it was a huge commercial success!
Overall, the project was definitely a success; Tencent Pictures and Tencent Studios made money and expanded their influence.
Producing such a large-scale period drama is itself a testament to one's capabilities.
Pengcheng Penguin Building
Chen Jingyuan went to his office as usual to handle some documents.
This includes the use of funds for some film projects, all of which require his approval and signature.
If any problems arise, he will be the person primarily responsible.
However, anyone with common sense knows that there are certain lines that cannot be crossed.
Almost every employee earns a million a year, and anyone with a brain knows how to make the right choice.
If problems are discovered, they may not only be expelled but also sent to prison.
"The Lunar New Year is almost here again!"
After processing some documents, Chen Jingyuan began to think about a question.
The Lunar New Year is probably in about ten days.
Last year, the family was unable to reunite for the Spring Festival because of Chen Keke's art exam.
This year we can reunite, but we can only choose to do so in Xiamen.
The reason is simple: the movie "Hello Mr. Billionaire" was filmed here.
The Kaixin Mahua project had already taken up a lot of time, and now they also have a movie to film.
"Never Say Die"!
This movie grossed over 2 billion yuan at the box office, and Kaixin Mahua previously invited Tencent Pictures to invest in it.
Although Kaixin Mahua received no shortage of investment after the success of "Goodbye Mr. Loser", it knew it couldn't keep the profits to itself.
Introducing Tencent Penguin Pictures can provide significant support in terms of promotion, and it also has a sense of compensation for Chen Jingyuan.
The film "Hello Mr. Billionaire" did take up a lot of time.
Chen Jingyuan naturally didn't hesitate and directly invested a considerable amount, 10 million, which would take up about 15% of the market share.
The share may not seem like much, but considering that some of the twisted dough sticks will have to be given away, it's not bad.
Anyway, it was just a piece of cake for Chen Jingyuan!
Because of the filming issues of "Never Say Die," the filming of "Hello Mr. Billionaire" continued without a break during the Chinese New Year.
Kaixin Mahua had communicated with the entire production team well in advance, and there were absolutely no problems.
Liu Yulan agreed after considering the situation of Kaixin Mahua, and also because the immersive filming would go more smoothly.
If there's a holiday during the Lunar New Year, actors need to get back into character after their break.
As the project investor and producer, Liu Yulan naturally hopes that "Hello Mr. Billionaire" will be filmed even better.
Liu Yulan had already considered spending the Chinese New Year in Xiamen!
It shouldn't be a problem to bring Chen Jingyuan and Chen Keke to Xiamen at that time.
Treat it as a vacation!
Many people travel during the Chinese New Year; they could learn from that.
"Let's stay in Xiamen!"
After considering it, Chen Jingyuan felt that as long as the family was reunited, it didn't matter where they were; they didn't necessarily have to go back to their hometown.
He even felt that Chen Keke would prefer to spend the Chinese New Year at home in Shanghai.
Just as Chen Jingyuan was lost in thought, a document regarding Tencent Pictures was released.
The main issues here are personnel promotion and year-end bonuses, etc.
Chen Jingyuan looked at the face and showed a lot of surprise, because the reason was related to him.
"Rank promoted to T5.2!"
"Salary and stock-based awards have increased in all aspects."
Chen Jingyuan murmured softly, his words filled with emotion.
He had never really thought about promotion before, and he was very cautious about each promotion once he reached the level of senior management.
He didn't think much of it and never expected that he would be promoted a rank this year.
However, Chen Jingyuan achieved quite a lot last year.
Many of their self-produced dramas, such as "Day and Night" and "The Untouchable," are quite good.
Needless to say, the variety show segment has been a hit, with several established shows supporting the new show "Back to Field" which has also gained popularity.
There is absolutely no problem with this promotion.
In addition, the commercial success of "Fighter of the Destiny" earned them a considerable amount of money.
The promotion is perfectly reasonable!
Chen Jingyuan didn't forget to check on the members of Tianhe Studio; basically, all of them had been promoted a level.
Many people were clearly very excited, which meant their income had increased.
Many people were clearly very excited, which meant their income had increased.
Of course, all the staff at Tianhe Studio sent their congratulations to Chen Jingyuan.
This includes people known to Tencent, such as Ma Yankun and Wang Juan.
The message count quickly reached 99+, clearly indicating that people sent messages immediately after seeing the announcement.
"Xiao Chen, come here!"
Just as Chen Jingyuan was lost in thought, a phone call came in from Sun Zhonghuai.
With just one sentence, Chen Jingyuan was a little puzzled, but he still went to Sun Zhonghuai's office immediately.
"Mr. Sun, what's the matter?!"
Chen Jingyuan couldn't help but show a curious expression as he asked.
"Please sit down, I'll explain slowly."
"That's a good thing!"
Sun Zhonghuai spoke up with a happy expression, which only made Chen Jingyuan more puzzled.
It seems like Tencent Video hasn't had any good news lately. We shouldn't be too happy about the commercial success of "Fighter of the Destiny".
"I will step down as president of Tencent Penguin Pictures after the New Year."
"You will take over my position."
Just as Chen Jingyuan was pondering, Sun Zhonghuai's voice continued.
His proposal, made before the end of the year, was finally approved with the participation of Little Ma.
He stepped down as president of Tencent Penguin Pictures, and Chen Jingyuan took over as president of Tencent Penguin Pictures!
It's fair to say that it wasn't easy, as many senior executives felt that Chen Jingyuan might be too young.
This led to ongoing discussions until Pony Ma made the final decision.
Sun Zhonghuai couldn't help but voice his earlier suggestion!
"As president!?"
Chen Jingyuan was stunned for a moment and murmured, his words filled with astonishment.
He seemed surprised that Sun Zhonghuai had come to find him for this very reason.
Chen Jingyuan's expression couldn't help but show some hesitation and complexity!
His hesitation stemmed from the fact that he had never considered becoming the president of Tencent Penguin Pictures.
Being a deputy is actually quite good; you just need to focus on your own projects.
Becoming the president of Tencent Penguin Pictures is a completely different story; there are many more responsibilities to take on.
The complexity stemmed from the fact that Sun Zhonghuai had been secretly working tirelessly to secure his promotion.
It's really hard to say no!
Ultimately, Chen Jingyuan acquiesced to this, before Bitcoin took off and before Ningwang Era went public.
In addition, preparing projects on my own might be more troublesome than staying at Tencent Video.
Just stay put on Tencent Video!
"Thank you, Mr. Sun!"
Chen Jingyuan spoke, his words sounding rather indifferent.
However, Sun Zhonghuai did not notice Chen Jingyuan's insincerity.
"Xiao Chen, after the New Year, Tencent Video will be in your hands."
"I've had this idea for a long time."
...
Sun Zhonghuai continued, explaining why he was no longer serving in that position.
A large part of the issue is the workload; Sun Zhonghuai wants more personal time.
Chen Jingyuan looked at Sun Zhonghuai with a hint of resentment in his eyes; he also wanted more personal time.
Upon assuming his new role at Tencent Pictures, his responsibilities were at least twice as many as when he was a vice president.
When he got back to his office, Chen Jingyuan felt he needed to calm down.
"Let's just work online from now on."
"Anyway, many projects were completed in Yanjing."
"Have the Yanjing branch send the information then."
In the end, Chen Jingyuan could only console himself with this thought.
A promotion might be a good thing for many Penguin employees, but for him it was utterly boring.
