Chapter 814: Chapter 708 Can’t Be Contained Anymore (Please Subscribe!) Working for such a boss with "ideas". Pu Chaodong felt full of vigor. Over the years, Chinese movies have tried to break into the international market, facing countless hardships, which Pu Chaodong knew only too well, yet they were still excluded from the mainstream film circles in the United States. Even the famous movie "Hero" from a few years ago, with its impressive overseas box office earnings that were five times the domestic take, and with great critical acclaim, sparked a ’martial arts craze’ and showed foreigners a different presentation of martial arts beyond Jackie Chan’s kung-fu comedies and Bruce Lee’s technical martial arts. But that was just a flash in the pan. After "Hero". In the eyes of foreigners, Chinese films were merely ’crowded’, ’funny in action design’, ’somewhat interesting’—nothing more than a passing fad, with all copycats disappearing without a trace when the wind changed. The reality is. A single movie. Simply cannot break open the foreign consumption market. This has been proven by the market. To penetrate and establish a presence, Chinese cinema must accumulate a large number of excellent films that create a strong impact and influence, earning genuine recognition and acceptance of the nation’s film culture. There is no other way. Unfortunately. Chinese cinema is stuck in a dilemma between arthouse and commercial cinema, limited by budget, plagued by blind copycatting, and saddled with depressing themes. Why depressing? Because of the characters’ goals in the movies. Avenging a father’s death. Old grudges within the sect. Feuds of family and country. ... Too many elements unsuitable for general consumption are mixed in, after all, why would a foreigner care about the familial love or historical feuds from a Chinese dynasty? Just as Chinese viewers might watch American themes such as the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, or Spartacus, which are steeped in national history and culture, they only watch for the spectacle and may even find them less entertaining than Chinese martial arts movies. So, such things can’t be effectively exported because there’s no sense of historical identity. Therefore. Tang Qing never considered exporting Chinese martial arts novels or content related to historical struggles of dynasties since, due to historical reasons, these films can only offer novelty to foreign audiences and fail to open or create a market. Just as the Chinese audience might have watched "Dangal" but won’t have high expectations for Indian cinema or fully embrace its culture, merely joining in the spectacle. This sort of cultural export would reduce them to the embarrassing state of India’s situation. After the spectacle. Everyone returns home. That’s all there is to it. Tang Qing didn’t think he could should the responsibility of spreading Chinese culture; he planned to use profitable projects to penetrate the market, followed by artistic and other directors marching out into the world. Division of labor. One leads and feasts on meat. The other follows and sips the soup. Overall, Tang Qing still followed a businessman’s logic. But Pu Chaodong didn’t know these details and thought Tang Qing had grand ambitions. In Pu Chaodong’s view. Chinese culture was being invaded by Western cultural trends, particularly with various types of American commercial movies constantly showcasing America’s might, intimidating the minds of people worldwide while forcefully ’promoting’ their culture, customs, and holidays. Is the moon abroad really rounder than in China? As someone who has studied abroad, Pu Chaodong sneered at this, democracy, freedom, ha. He was very curious as to where Tang Qing would take Comet Entertainment. Following this. Mo Wantong asked many questions. In fact, they were all routine, out of ten questions asked, eight weren’t newsworthy. Yet, this information was the ’wealth’ of news websites, an accumulation of details, which could be used as references for future stories. Finally. Mo Wantong asked about the ’expectations’ of the trip, "Director Pu, could I get some information about your chairman? If possible, I’d love to conduct an exclusive interview with him. Do I have such an opportunity?" Pu Chaodong’s lips curled into a smile. Thinking to himself that it figures. He shook his head regretfully, "I’m sorry Miss Mo, but our chairman currently has no plans to accept exclusive interviews." Tang Qing was aware that a secret cannot be hidden forever, but neither did he wish to appear before the public just like that. Otherwise. What if his handsomeness blinds others? What if he causes a disturbance? Cough cough... The main reason was that he did not want the hassle. Mo Wantong said with disappointment, "Alright then, if Director Tang ever wishes to do so in the future, I hope he will consider Sina first for an online media interview. And as you know, we journalists have certain channels. Though we do not have photos of your company’s chairman, many journalists know his name, and we do too, so it will inevitably be mentioned in our reports. Even if we don’t say it, others will mention it, that’s why..." At this point. Mo Wantong paused, fixing her gaze on Pu Chaodong. Even if Sina does not mention Tang Qing in their reports, other media outlets will, and they naturally wouldn’t want to purposefully disregard him. Not getting an interview with Tang Qing was disappointing for Mo Wantong, but scoring one with Pu Chaodong was still a catch. She stood at the forefront of her peers. "We are aware of that, and you have your journalistic freedom," Pu Chaodong expressed his understanding. Mo Wantong replied with joy, "Thank you, Director Pu, for accepting such a lengthy interview. I apologize for the disturbance today, but by tomorrow morning, you’ll be able to see a report on your company on the Internet Finance headlines of Sina. If there are any issues, please feel free to contact me." "Hehe, okay." The interview didn’t last long. It was over in less than half an hour. After all, Pu Chaodong was no idle man, Comet Entertainment was incredibly busy. In two months, there would be the restructuring of the group, along with various other preparations. These all had to be done by Comet Entertainment itself, and then submitted to the Tianyan Group for review. Although it looked like it increased the management costs, it won in being comprehensive. After sending Mo Wantong away, Pu Chaodong made a special call to Tang Qing, informing him about this. Tang Qing merely said he knew and that they could go ahead with the report since there were no photos of him, and its spread wasn’t strong. Nobody would be looking at him like they would look at a monkey. ...... The next day, news about Comet Entertainment once again became the focus of finance-related media. However, the main content of the reports was about Comet Entertainment’s development history and the current composition of the company, along with dialogs from media interviews or explorations about Pu Chaodong. As for the chairman of the company, Tang Qing, he was only mentioned in passing. Even his age wasn’t mentioned. There was no choice. As rigorous journalists, what they couldn’t stand the most was guesswork and uncertainties in information, especially regarding the heads of such large corporations. This wasn’t an entertainment news piece that could be clarified later. One mistake could lead to a decline in credibility. Therefore, regarding Tang Qing, they just mentioned his name. It would also avoid arousing reader curiosity about Tang Qing’s photos and background. Once curiosity was piqued, they wouldn’t have explanations to provide, which would be awkward. They were truly frustrated; this young man wouldn’t even appear publicly to promote his company. Just by virtue of his age, he could attract extensive social attention, which would be beneficial for enhancing the company’s influence. Although the reports about Tang Qing only lingered on his name, this time, more people took notice of it. Especially after Comet Video acquired Tudou, and users merged, basically all of Tudou’s users switched to Comet Video, only to discover that the content here was much richer than on Tudou. Ordinary people buying clothes wouldn’t care about the name of the company’s owner. But for these video viewers, Baidu was right at hand. Their curiosity exploded immediately when their favorite video website was suddenly acquired; they all wanted to know who ran such an awesome company. Unfortunately, the information they found through searching was still the same as reported in the news. Just a name. Everything else was non-existent. Many people, not believing it, scoured dozens of pages on Baidu, but couldn’t find any information about Tang Qing’s age or photos. It was as if this person was fictitious, an invisible owner of such a company? ... Qingyan City. In Tang Father’s shop. At the moment, he was thoughtfully looking at a piece of news on the computer before him. Now that they had money, Tang Father also began to educate himself, reading books, learning to use the computer to look up information, and acquired these "new skills." So, he set up a computer in the store. To read the news or place orders through the backend of Tang Kai’s jewelry company website. He had just closed the order placement website. As usual, he browsed through Sina’s news and was drawn in by a clickbait titled "The Birth of a New Video Service Giant in Huaxia." He saw the name Tang Qing mentioned inside. He didn’t think much of it. But while browsing the comments, a user mentioned that the chairman of Sheng Tang Group was also called Tang Qing and was a newly adult young man. That’s when Tang Father suddenly sensed something strange. Sheng Tang? Tang Qing? It seemed that last time Qin Shiqi and her sister had worked in a Sheng Tang Apparel store, and the reason Tang Qing gave at the time was that he knew the owner. The sisters worked there for a month and used their wages to buy gifts, which Tang Father remembered distinctly. Thinking of this, Tang Father’s heart raced. Could it be such a coincidence? But if it wasn’t a coincidence... then... could it be possible? Tang Father was caught in a dilemma. He dared not believe this bold idea. "What are you looking at?" Seeing Tang Father in a daze, Mother Tang walked over and waved her hand in front of his face. Tang Father snapped back to reality. Out of nowhere, he asked, "Do you think Tangtang is quite wealthy?"
