There has always been a saying in the industry about the industry structure of "laughing in the south and standing in the north", but if we compare the company's size with the popularity of capital, the latter is actually difficult to look at the former.
Compared with the valuation, the laughter is 30 times as much as that of the stand-alone comedy. In terms of the scale of actors, the number of comedians is about 100, and there are currently about 20 stand-up comedians. The siphon effect of the industry is particularly obvious, and Laughter almost absorbs most outstanding actors in the industry.
Shan Liren's comedies also admit the gap between them and laughter. lcy, the co-founder of Shan Liren's comedies, even joked that laughter is their "grandfather's business" and is no longer a "friend's business".
The development of stand-alone people and laughing fruit culture
In 20 18, the one-year-old stand-up comedy was led by Youku in the A round of financing; In 20 19, the five-year-old Laughter Culture successfully completed the B round of financing. Although the strategies are different, stand-up comedy and laughter culture both play an important role in the pioneering stage of China's talk show field. With tens of millions of financing, the market value of talk show industry also appears.
Shan Liren wants to catch up with the laughing fruit culture, but he still doesn't have the ability to compete in terms of talent reserves. Laughter fruit has played two trump cards, Talk Show Conference and Tucao Conference, which is a soft power that other talk show brands in China do not have.
As for the offline open wheat on which talk show creation depends, it is reported that only Snow and Goat, which belong to Laughter Fruit, can be commercialized in the national talk show clubs. Other talk show clubs still can't make ends meet just by ticket income. Of course, this also includes stand-up comedy.
Although there is a mountain ahead, stand-up comedy and laughter culture take different paths, but they can still find the possibility of making a fortune. First of all, they are also taking the star-like route of actors. Zhou Qimo, the founder, said when he returned to the talk show conference that the tickets for the offline performance had been sold out in seconds, and the drainage effect of the program was evident.
