My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 412 The Great Sinner of Pianhua, Open Pandora!
ps: Q Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!

On the wooden tray of the coffee table, there is a pot of old tea and several teacups put down, and the apricot yellow tea soup is swaying in the cups, and the aftertaste is full of fragrance.

The scent of sandalwood, the scent of tea, and the high hanging yellow lights create a delicate atmosphere.

In the tea room, the people present are of different shapes and colors, and their thoughts are hard to guess.

Seeing the silence of the four people in front of him, Second Young Master Jiang picked up the teacup and took a sip in his own leisure, without interrupting the eye contact of the people opposite him.

He is not in a hurry about "selling the film".

Wu Xiaozu had discussed with him before, and wanted to use "God of Gamblers" to secretly cross the spring breeze.

This is the best opportunity for the company to build distribution channels.

However, we can’t give excuses to the giants. At this time, selling “movies” has become a good opportunity to lay out channels.

3500 million investment! (declared externally).

Zhou Runfa + Wan Zichuang + Lin Qingxia + Liang Jiahui + Luo Yijian announced the lineup of five superstars + Wu Xiaozu!

Transnational filming of secrets, scholars and 1024 locomotives!
In detail, every place is enough to become a declared explosive point.This is also the prerequisite for attracting filmmakers from various countries and regions to come to cooperate.

Wu Xiaozu hopes to use this "film pre-sale" method to reach the first release cooperation.

The specific operation content requires the cooperation of each company. As long as each company has a taste of the sweetness this time, then Wu Xiaozu can completely sign this cooperation in writing in the future. At that time, the distribution will no longer be limited to the hematopoietic ability of his own company, but It is aimed at the entire film industry and market.

Jiang Ershao himself has a channel for western films, and Wu Xiaozu happens to have Stellar Entertainment cooperate with him. I believe that independent production companies such as Tsui Hark's film studio and Mai Dangxiong's film company will be happy to have another company to operate their own films.

In this case, he has every opportunity to enter the feast of distribution to enjoy the benefits and gains of the upper reaches of the industry.

Most importantly, Wu Xiaozu also has a killer feature - the ability to produce video tapes and distribute goods.Of course, the huge benefits here require him to plan slowly.

After all, in his opinion, Cai Zhiming is not a good collaborator!
Everything is difficult at the beginning. If you want to lay your own distribution network, you have a long way to go!However, the end of the 80s was definitely the best and last chance. This was a chance to reach the sky.

Even, enough to grow into a huge multinational media company.

At this time, the cooperation contracts of Hollywood's six major companies have not yet been signed, nor have they fully invaded the Southeast Asian market.

In the last life, as the negotiations between Hong Kong films and Wanwan ticket warehouses collapsed, the Wanwan market directly fell to Hollywood!Hong Kong films also lost their last and biggest piece of fat.

At that time, Goryeo began to cultivate local films, and made the greatest reduction and restrictions on foreign films.Thai films are also intensively cultivated in specific fields, and the Southeast Asian market has even erected barriers to the introduction of Hong Kong films.

There are many reasons for the decline of Hong Kong films, such as market squeeze, the establishment of cultural barriers in various regions, the internal chaos of Hong Kong films, the extreme lack of industrial systems, and the transfer of capital.

We have always said that Hong Kong Island is the Hollywood of the East. In fact, in the era of Shaw Brothers studios, we learned the Hollywood model.It was then that Shaw Brothers really called out to build Oriental Hollywood.

But in fact, how can a small area compete with Hollywood with a well-established industrial system?

Therefore, even in the golden age of Hong Kong films, although foreign language films are not as good as Hong Kong films at the local box office on Hong Kong Island, there is still a market worth hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars.Of course, it is enough to be proud of such an achievement as a region.

If the mainland market behind Hong Kong movies is one-tenth as perfect as that of the United States at this time, even if the industrial system is not perfect, it is estimated that Hollywood will not really suppress Chinese-language movies.

This point can only be thought about, so Wu Xiaozu would not want to be the savior.This is like the impact of Internet media on paper media, which is irreversible.All he has to do is strengthen himself!
The film and television distribution in Southeast Asia is an important part of the overseas strategy of many domestic films and TV dramas.Huashi, Sony Classics, and WGUSA control the distribution of film and television dramas in the "ASEAN" region.

In fact, Southeast Asia is the best backyard for movies and TV dramas in the Greater China region.It's a pity that the Hong Kong movies in the previous life were just a taste of it, and it was regarded as a money-making market, and it didn't really go into in-depth development and operation!

In Southeast Asia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines account for the majority.At this time, the number of screens in Indonesia could not keep up, and the government was the first to require domestic theaters to show no more than 60% of local movies.

Indian box office market...you have to know how to dance! ╮(╯▽╰)╭!
The markets of Vietnam and Laos are relatively closed at this time, and they are not key box office harvesting areas. Of course, Zhou Xingxing can be considered to develop here in the future!
After all, Xingzi, the number one Vietnamese movie star, didn't get his name for nothing...o(╯□╰)o!In later generations, Star Master movies dubbed in Vietnamese can make people laugh out loud!

The best markets in Southeast Asia at the moment are actually Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and the Philippines!
Singapore's local films are basically equivalent to none, so later generations will increase the introduction of literary and artistic talents.Local theaters rely heavily on imported films, and the proportion of local films does not exceed 5%. This includes government propaganda. The most important thing is that although the land is small, there are many screens.

The Malaysian market also likes imported movies very much, and "Shaolin Temple" has performed very well at the local box office.At this time, Hollywood and Hong Kong films basically accounted for the entire country.Local films account for no more than 10%.

In fact, if it weren’t for the fact that the Hong Kong filmmakers were too outrageous, Malaysia would still continue to import Hong Kong films, but the Hong Kong islanders have vomited blood from the Malaysian Film Manufacturers Association. Many of the things that were not shot on camera came from Malaysian filmmakers... At that time, when Hong Kong Island met Malaysian filmmakers, it was really a one-size-fits-all...

The angry Malaysian representative actress Yang Ziqiong scolded her colleagues frankly, and then left the quagmire of Hong Kong Island in a fit of anger.

At that time, countless Hong Kong Island talents fled, not only to find a living, but also really disappointed in this market!
Unlike the previous two, Thailand’s local films are not as weak, and the proportion of local films is basically very low at this time.Especially the box office in Thailand, which is basically gathered in major areas such as Bangkok, accounts for about 80% of the total in Thailand.This is very similar to Wanwan. The metropolitan area of ​​Taipei accounts for 80%-90% of the box office results of the entire Wanwan Mandarin films.

The proportion of local films in the Philippines is very high, and they are also the first countries in Southeast Asia to have a film industry.

In fact, for the Southeast Asian market, later generations of Goryeo have given us a good answer.Korea Film Capital cooperates through local joint ventures with Indonesia, the Philippines and other countries, and has more than one million movie viewing results in the local area every year.The commercial films of later generations of Goryeo Bangzi suddenly exploded, which is also related to their grabbing a large number of Southeast Asian markets.

Any commercial film can't go far without the support of achievements.At that time, Chungmuro ​​was able to develop thanks to the support of the foreign market!

In this regard, the apprentice of Korea knows better about cultivating the market than the master of Hong Kong films!

In the previous life, gambling movies became the biggest winners in the box office of Hong Kong movies in Southeast Asia!No matter "God of Gamblers", "Man of Gamblers", and "God of Gamblers" are all box office hits, this time you know why Director LYB Wu filmed "God of Gamblers", right?
Without him, it's really making money!

At the same time, you also know how tricked Wang Jiawei and Hou Xiaochen are, right?The box office in other places in Southeast Asia is losing money in total—you know, at that time, some film studios in Southeast Asia would rather use the previously bought out films to deal with the audience again, and they were unwilling to release Lao Wang’s films...

It's not that Lao Wang wants to go to Europe to win awards, he really can't get along in Southeast Asia!Manual funny!

Internationally, the issuance methods are roughly divided into four types: account-sharing issuance, buyout issuance, guaranteed minimum issuance, and employment issuance.At the moment, most Hong Kong films are being bought out and released.

Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest have their own theater chains and partners in Southeast Asia, and they have a great advantage in distribution.This is also the main reason why the stingy Uncle Six and Boss Zou of Golden Harvest dared to invest tens of millions of dollars to enter Hollywood!
At this time, various film companies on Hong Kong Island are still focusing on the box office performance of the theaters.

Conversely, the domestic box office of about US$100 billion per year in the United States can generate 6-10 times the downstream output value.

The first profit of Hollywood movies is the theater window, which will immediately enter the pay TV program after it is released (amount... It is equivalent to you have a certain three major video memberships, but you still need to pay for tickets or spend money to watch some movies! ╮(╯ ▽╰)╭).

Immediately afterwards, the film distribution cycle began to enter the home video profit-making stage. Every year, the income of Hollywood films in the home video distribution window alone is about 120 billion U.S. dollars every year.

Then it will enter the wireless TV programs, such as ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX, WB later.TVB usually buys out the broadcasting rights of films from the film studios. Generally speaking, the copyright fees for popular films will not be less than US$1000 million.This is equivalent to our domestic "Shangxing Satellite TV".

In the end, it will be sold to a small local TV station... that is, the TV station in your area where you can find an ever-changing old lady to pretend to be an expert, broadcast health programs, but actually sell products! o(╯□╰)o!

Compared with Hollywood's careful planning, the extensive management of Hong Kong films is basically a one-shot deal.

Wu Xiaozu wants to expand the profits of a movie, no one will have trouble with money!
"Boss Jiang—"

A benevolent white fat man broke the silence first, and helped Jiang Zhiqiang, who was sitting at the top, to fill up the tea with a smile, and said tentatively, "There is really no precedent for your method.

Although everyone is buying movies now, but your mouth is worth millions, it seems a bit too much—"

"That's right, Boss Jiang... We came here from Southeast Asia to cooperate sincerely..." Another dark and thin man also echoed.He is a film dealer in Sawadhika.The fat white man who spoke just now is a film producer in Malaysia.The remaining two are also filmmakers in Southeast Asia.

"Actually, this place is easy to handle—" At this moment, Wu Xiaozu, the LYB, walked in with a smile.

"I have a guaranteed release method..."

That's right!

Wu Xiaozu wants to open the Pandora's box of Hong Kong films "selling flowers" after Hong Kong films No. 1 and No. [-] in attracting foreign investment.In the previous life, you have to admit that the selling of movie clips is definitely one of the direct reasons for the final decline of Hong Kong movies.

As long as you trap a few "traffic stars" and sell them for money, you can make money in this way, who wants to make a good film?Bad money chasing good money!
In later generations, there is a famous "movie theater effect", Wu Xiaozu will be the first person to stand up to watch a movie.This will lead to the audience slowly standing up without management...

The same is true for selling flowers!
This is a Pandora's box, once it is opened, it may not be able to close.It's like arbitrarily modifying human genes...

However, Wu Xiaozu really wanted to send warmth to these filmmakers.As for whether it will make other people go astray, it is the teacher who needs to teach, and it is not his business.
