Taylor Swift's Genius Arrangement Skills

"I never expected you not to blame me, and even give me such great authority. Lin Yuan, you really make me ashamed," Director Nolan said with emotion.

"How have I not blamed you?" Lin Yuan said with a smile.

A little warning was enough. There was no need to wield a heavy hammer when speaking to smart people; what mattered was how they responded.

Director Nolan nodded. "I won't let you down. Thank you for giving me a platform like this!"

Lin Yuan shook his head. "This is also an inevitable choice now that Lin Yuan Pictures has developed to this point. You could say I'm using you as a test case. If it works well, we'll roll it out across the board."

Lin Yuan Pictures was now the company with the highest market capitalization in the world, which was actually a highly unreasonable and abnormal situation.

Under normal circumstances, the companies with the highest market capitalization were mostly asset-heavy manufacturing enterprises in the twentieth century, while after entering the twenty-first century, they were generally high-tech companies with strong growth potential.

Cultural enterprises such as film companies had never had particularly high market capitalizations, much less become number one in the world.

Lin Yuan Pictures had earned such recognition from the capital market partly because of the celebrity-company effect brought by Lin Yuan's personal image, and partly because of the company's extraordinarily high profits and expectations of rapid growth.

But that also meant Lin Yuan Pictures' high valuation was not secure.

Forget high growth—even maintaining its current profits was an extremely difficult task.

Lin Yuan Pictures' performance in 2004 had been supported by three films: "The Road to Legend," "The Spy King 2," and "King of the Jungle."

Even merely matching its 2004 performance in 2005 would be very difficult.
