Entertainment from Charlotte's Troubles

Chapter 204 Sniping Huayi Box Office
Make the same film and release it at the same time?

Yang Siwei was stunned, Yuan Hua was fighting Hua Yi.

In the same schedule, there are only so many films to be scheduled, some are ranked high and others are ranked low, the final result is either you die or I live.

There is always a party to suffer.

Therefore, some low-cost, small-production movies will avoid big-production movies before they are released.

Every year during the Spring Festival, there is a fight between gods and gods, all with a big lineup and big productions. Sometimes there are foreign science fiction films at the same time. Ordinary small shrimps can't be splashed when they go in.

Yuan Hua announced that he would be in the same period as Hua Yi's movie, so he made it clear that he wanted to snipe his box office!

"Huayi is a big company, and there are film and television works broadcast every year. The most concentrated ones are the Spring Festival, May [-]st, and [-]th. There are more films during this time period."

"Speaking of which, if our Wolf Warrior is released during the Spring Festival, I'm afraid we will hit it."

The filming of Wolf Warrior has already been completed, and the post-production has just started. According to the current progress, it is completely in time for the Spring Festival release.

Yuan Hua said without doubt: "Then it will be released during the Spring Festival, and we can meet them, and double the publicity funds later."

Before the film is released, there is an important link, publicity and distribution, which is often called publicity.

Generally, publicity and distribution are outsourced to other companies, and few film and television companies can take care of both.

Beginning this year, Yuan Hua expanded Yixin Film and Television's promotional department, and now he is trying to do film and television promotion, and it is on the right track, and it will soon become a mature department.

In the future, the business of the publicity department will not only be limited to limited companies, but other film and television companies can also do it.

"Uh, that, Brother Hua, there is something I want to talk about." Yang Siwei hesitated to speak, hesitating, "I think I will be in charge of managing artists in the future."

"There are more and more people in the company, and there are more and more things to do. The professional knowledge required must be solid. I have no skills at all."

"I was able to manage when there were few people before, but now I am a bit too busy. More importantly, I don't understand some things at all."

In addition to the artist director, she is also the publicity director. Yuan Hua is not here, and she has to be responsible for many things. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is the second in command.

In the past, there were dozens of people in the company, which was almost the size of a studio. It was not difficult to manage, but now it is no longer possible. There are seventy or eighty people, and there are many industries involved, such as film and television promotion, artist management, public relations department, legal department, film and television investment, script creation... …

When the company was not established, she was solely in charge of Yuan Hua's business. It was common for her to find resources outside, and she seldom sat in the office.

Now when I open my eyes every day, the work piled up in front of me is so busy that I can’t finish it until dark. From work to get off work, my buttocks never leave the chair, and I have to work overtime until midnight when I get home.

From time to time, you have to pay attention to the dynamics of Yang Yang, Jing Tian, ​​Li Yifeng, and Tan Songyun.

It's fine if she has the ability to complete the work. What scares her is that she doesn't understand many things. She is a complete layman. She has been fooled several times and almost caused losses to the company.

After pondering for a few seconds, Yuan Hua nodded: "That's right. Your strengths are in public relations and artist management. It's not appropriate to put all the burden on you. It seems that you have gained a lot of weight."

"Look for a few reliable people these days, and leave the professional work to professional people. In the future, you will be in charge of the artist and just promote it."

Yang Siwei cupped his hands: "I thank you, I am finally liberated."

Half a year ago, I went to the hospital for a physical examination. The doctor said that she was sick all over and needed regular insulin injections to maintain her health.

Sometimes when she is too busy to go to the hospital, she calls herself. After a long time, she is familiar with the road. Whether it is in the office or at home, she always has a few boxes for spare.

She started with the needles, and was once bumped into by the people below. They were so frightened that they almost didn't report her.

According to this work intensity, she is afraid that insulin injections will not work any day, and it will be useless sooner or later.

She doesn't want to spend her life making money and spending her life, her wonderful youth hasn't begun yet.

"Brother Hua, you should also pay attention to rest. You have earned so much money and haven't seen how you use it. This is not okay. Go travel more if you have nothing to do, play around, buy a few luxury cars for fun, relax yourself, and don't push yourself. Too tight."

"Let's talk about it in a few years. It's not the time yet. Let's go. You can be busy."

Looking back on the life of these years, Yuan Hua really didn't enjoy it very much. He spent most of the year on the set, and his daily life at home was simple, with three meals a day.

Think about Charlotte's ending, although it's not good, but sometimes I'm quite envious.

Sports cars, mansions, yachts, villas, young models who don't look the same every day, don't mention how chic they are.

It's just a little short.

……

The Old Nine Gates aired six episodes on the first day, and two episodes will be updated every day thereafter. Forty episodes, members can watch them in seventeen days, and ordinary viewers in nineteen days.

A week has passed in the blink of an eye, and the number of broadcasts has reached more than 30 billion, breaking multiple records for online dramas in a row, and people in the industry are shocked.

According to the video game between Yuan Hua and Aiqi Video, with 30 billion views, the other party has to pay him 7000 million.

Web dramas are not theater movies, there are no high taxes, and there is no promotion and distribution cut. The phenomenon that theaters account for the majority, the 7000 million yuan will actually fall into Yuan Hua's pocket.

According to this trend, it will not be a problem to get 80 billion broadcasts after the finale. Yuan Hua can easily get 5000 million. Putting aside his 5000 million production cost, he can earn [-] million.
Many listed companies can't make a net profit of 5000 million yuan a year, and Yuan Hua can get it done with one play.

A few months before and after.

How not to make people jealous.

No wonder people say that the film and television industry is huge profits. This is not an exaggeration at all.

The 5000 million earned is just the return on investment. As an actor, he also earned a salary of 500 million for 37 episodes, with an average of [-] per episode.

This price tag is definitely the highest salary in the entertainment industry.

After the old nine doors, I am afraid that the price will have to be raised.

"Mr. Yuan, I have a play here that is very suitable for you. It is specially tailored for you. Are you interested in trying it out?"

"Brother Hua, our company has invested 8000 million yuan to make a blockbuster movie, and we would like to invite you to play the leading role."

"Huazi, you can do it. The bosses of the film and television companies have come to me. Let me be the middleman to intercede and ask you to make a movie. You can make up your own mind whether to shoot or not. Give me face and give me a call back."

"Brother Hua, there is a TV series, 45 episodes, a total of [-] episodes, are you filming?"

Ten days after the broadcast of The Nine Doors, Yuan Hua's net worth skyrocketed, and his salary for the TV series was raised to more than 40 per episode, and someone even offered him 50 per episode.

Is it expensive?

It is indeed expensive, but some people are willing to invite him because he is worth the price. Now who doesn't know that the word Yuan Hua means traffic and ratings.

As long as there is him, the audience is willing to watch and pay for it.

Just like this old Nine Gates, with 50 billion views, the rating has dropped from [-]:[-] at the beginning to [-]:[-] now, and it has almost dropped below [-].

There are also many complaints from the audience, but if they can't stand it, it will be popular, because some people like to watch it.

Relying on this old Nine Gates, iQi Video has attracted millions of members and users, and I am numb from laughter.

The Old Nine was aired for 20 days, with a view volume of 85 billion. It officially came to an end, breaking multiple records for online dramas and becoming the highest-volume online drama ever.

To celebrate, the leader of iQi Video held a celebration banquet and invited the leading actors of the crew to dinner.

At the same time, Yuan Hua's account was settled, [-] million.

If it drags on, there will be more than this amount of money. Even if it ends, the number of daily broadcasts will still be quite a lot.

After drinking for three rounds, the leader of Aiqi Video left. Before leaving, he firmly held Yuan Hua's hand, saying that there will be online dramas in the future, and they must be considered.

Beside Yuan Hua, Zhang Yixing held a glass of wine and said: "Brother Hua, thank you for asking me to film a movie, and I would like to toast you. Don't be polite if you ask me for help in a movie in the future, I will definitely be there."

The Old Nine is his first film, and it became an instant hit, and he has successfully started his film career. These days, many film and television companies have sent him scripts.

Now he belongs to the Sanqi development of song, film and television.

The goal is to match Yuan Hua.

Sorry to hit Zhang Yixing, Yuan Hua can only politely say: "Next time there is a role that suits you, I will definitely find you."

In his previous life, as one of the four returning sons, Zhang Yixing had been popular for a few years, and was once top-notch.

Maybe it was because he asked for too much, took too many steps, or maybe the company's positioning for him was inaccurate, and his popularity has not increased but decreased over the past five or six years.

In terms of songs, they talk about representing Chinese music all day long, but there is not a single song that is out of the circle.

I made a few films in film and television, but they were all lukewarm. Huang Bo led me to shoot a good movie. The box office was good, but the performance was not good, and I didn't win any awards.

There are a lot of variety shows, Extreme Challenge has been in the first few seasons, and there are other idol trainees, youth has you, the name of the boy, this is street dance, golden song youth, longing for life.

The typical want for everything, in the end nothing happens.

Looking at the other three players, the boss is backed by the Beijing circle and mainly focuses on movies. Before he entered, he was already top-notch. In terms of popularity and traffic, there are not many who can compete with him.

Lu Han's resident running man maintains his popularity. He usually takes on the show, if it is not for the magic city fortress and sweet crit, he is also an existence that can wrestle with the boss.

Huang Zitao was close, but fortunately, his popularity has not declined. He opened his own brokerage company as the boss, cultivated artists, and lived a chic life.

Zhang Yixing was the only one who couldn't do anything low and low. After the revision of Extreme Challenge, he also quit, and his popularity dropped sharply, all supported by variety shows.

Yuan Hua didn't dare to do this with all the music, film and television.

In his plan, the actor is the leading role, and singing is a side job. It is impossible to grasp it with both hands. Human energy is limited.

The film and television drama alone is enough for him to ponder for a lifetime.

"Teacher Yuan, and me." Tan Songyun said quickly.

Zhang Yixing is not a member of the company, and he still wants to steal their jobs, which is a good idea.

My family can't get enough to eat.

He poked Yang Yang with his elbow, and Yang Yang grinned and said, "Mr. Yuan, I heard that Sister Yang said that the company has a new drama, is it true?"

Whirlwind Girl and Old Nine Gates started broadcasting one after another, and they are considered to be popular, but in the past few months, they just went to variety shows to show their faces, received some endorsements, and did not accept scripts.

What Yang Siwei said was that the company wanted to produce a new drama, so they should not go out for now.

"Well, I have this idea. The script has passed and is in the pre-production stage."

Yang Yang's eyes lit up: "Can we act?"

"It was originally built for the two of you, please ask Yang Siwei for the specific situation."

Yuan Hua's principle of being the boss is that as long as you can be popular, you should praise it to death. Yang Yang and Tan Songyun have passed the market test, and if there are indeed audiences who are popular, then he will not be stingy.

Just like Li Yifeng, after Gu Jian Qi Tan became popular, there were many film appointments, and the company helped him negotiate several plays.

In the second half of this year, he will play Lively with Tang Yan, and at the end of the year, he will play with Yang Mi, and he will play He Ling and Gardenia Blossom at the beginning of next year.

The one-year schedule is full.

Zhang Yixing looked at Yang Yang and Tan Songyun with envious eyes. It is really comfortable to be an artist under Yuan Hua. As long as he shows his potential side, there will never be a lack of filming.

There are five artists in a company, Yuan Hua, Jing Tian, ​​Li Yifeng, Yang Yang, and Tan Songyun, each of whom is more popular than the other.

After the dinner, Yang Yang asked for some fresh meals to take to Yixin Film and Television.

After eight o'clock in the evening, the company is still brightly lit, and more than one-third of the people are working overtime.

Most of the people who work overtime are the artist's logistics service team.

"Everyone has worked hard, please have supper."

"I'm thinking about you enough. When I go out to socialize, I will bring a meal."

"Sister Yang, you also have a share."

Came to Yang Siwei's office, did Yang Yang pour water for her attentively, and said with a smile: "Sister Yang, Teacher Yuan said that the company has a new drama specially prepared for me, what's the situation?"

"He told you all this?"

"I said it, and I asked you for the specific details. Isn't it the end of the year? I want to be mentally prepared. If there is something really interesting, I can spare time."

While eating, Yang Siwei didn't look up, and told the results of today's meeting: "It's called Slightly Smile is Allure, an urban idol drama with a budget of 4000 million, and you and Tan Songyun are the male and female leads."

In the previous life, Yang Yang and Shuangzi starred in this drama, but since the copyright fell into Yuan Hua's hands, there was nothing wrong with Shuangzi.

"Idol drama?"

"Why, you've only acted in a few leading roles, and you're gone, don't you want to act?"

Yang Yang smiled mischievously: "That's not true, I'm not qualified to choose, some acting is good."

People outside can fight for a supporting role, and no one will refuse such a thing as a leading role.

I just heard that it is an urban idol drama, and it is starring Tan Songyun. I guess it may be similar to Whirlwind Girl, and it is a sweet love style.

Two dramas of the same type, no challenge.

Inserting the chopsticks into the lunch box, Yang Siwei said seriously, "I'm asking you a question, do you think it's more important to make money and fame, or to earn word of mouth?"

"It's all important."

"What if we want to arrange them in an order?" Yang Siwei continued to ask.

"Ah, earn fame, earn money, earn word of mouth."

"Yeah, you all know that you have to be famous before you get a word of mouth, so why are you resisting that you are very charming with a slight smile?"

"Don't refute, that's what you thought at that moment. You don't think it's challenging, right. If you want to act in a show that shows off your acting skills, it's best to subvert your image."

After drinking a glass of water, Yang Siwei said, "Li Yifeng had the same idea as you before, but after playing Xiuchundao with Yuan Hua, he changed his mind."

"According to him, he heard Lei Jiayin talking about a senior brother who was doing well, and he only earned more than 1 yuan a month playing the leading role."

"If you want to hone your acting skills and become a respected veteran actor, I don't mind finding you a repertory theater for ten or eight years."

"When the time comes, you will be absolutely amazing. Your acting skills will surpass Li Yifeng's and the others. All major film and television crews will rush to ask you to play a supporting role."
