What kind of bad thoughts can the director have?

Chapter 109 Robbing the Market

After all, he had been in the showbiz for three years in his last life, so he had some insight. In a flash, Yang Shu was enlightened and understood many things.

There is no need to go to Huanggu Tun to burn incense, what Zhang Dashuai said is correct, the world is indeed a world, there is nothing to doubt, if you doubt it, it is purely inexperienced.

In addition, what Luo Xue said just now is correct, gold will shine wherever it goes, because there will always be light actively hitting it, and all the light seems to be looking for gold.

And Yang Shu is a piece of gold, and the works he has filmed in the past year of his debut can prove that he is gold. Today, the premiere of the second season of "Wonderful Events in the World" proves that he is a piece of pure gold.

Some truths are very simple and easy to understand when applying them to others, but they may not be able to see them clearly when it is their turn. This is the case of poplar.

He began to have some doubts. This afternoon, after the second season of "World's Wonderful Events" hit more than 500 million hits, Luo Xue's call came. Is it really a coincidence?
Mr. Fu chatted a lot on the day of the family banquet. The second season of "Wonderful Events in the World" was previewing. A thoughtful person like Luo Xue really didn't think of it before calling?
Is she really busy finding talents these days and didn't call?

Yang Shu even realized that with regard to the release of "Love Letter from the Kingdom of Heaven", someone might have started to weigh it early in the morning. Today's results of the second season of "World Wonderful Events" prompted the other party to make a final decision, and now he understands that it is a bit slow.

Previously, Yang Shu and his classmates discussed that there are only a few theaters in China, and there are more than 2 film and television production companies, but why are there more than 4 distribution companies?
The reason is very simple, the manufacturers of the products are usually not as many as the distribution companies, so if they can’t produce it, can’t they sell it?
Many distribution companies have a simple fantasy. If they are lucky enough to get a good work one day, and if they are lucky enough to find a way to open up theater channels, they will make a lot of money.

This is the same as the dream of most commercial companies, but it is also the same as the reality in other fields of business. The vast majority of distribution companies never opened, happily opened, and disappeared without a sound. accumulated so much.

However, there must be some people in the industry who have made a lot of money in publishing from scratch, and only then can they have a demonstration effect and lead a group of people to follow their dreams.

When we talked about fairness just now, Yang Shu thought of the princes and princesses of domestic entertainment, and lamented that this line of work would be hereditary in the future.

In fact, it is similar to the situation of the second generation of stars. Every industry has similar tricks, all kinds of relationships and capital are intertwined, and there are second-generation rentiers. This is the reality of this stage of development.

The children of celebrities can rent money, the children of producers can rent money, and the children of publishers have no shortage of arms or legs.
"Give the film to sister-in-law, do you have a distribution company in your hand?"

Luo Xue corrected her words: "I was just making connections, not entrusted to me, and the relevant policies did not allow me to get involved in the production and distribution of movies.

The distribution of your film can be entrusted to my friend's company, they can handle this matter better, and provide comprehensive services in all aspects, so you don't have to worry about it at all. "

"There is such a good thing, isn't my sister-in-law playing with me?"

"Do you think I'm someone who likes to play around?"

When it comes to serious business, Yang Shu doesn't like to be teased, and is very suspicious.

When something overturned his initial judgment, he had to start doubting from the beginning.

To be honest, he was a little surprised when he received the invitation to Mr. Fu's family banquet. The relationship progressed too fast, beyond expectations, and he was flattered.

At that time, he and Liu Man reluctantly explained that they loved the house and loved Wu. The teacher liked Jin Dong so much, so he took special care of him.

Now it seems that it may not be the case. The teacher has been teaching for more than 20 years, and he is probably not a sentimental person to be able to be at the top.

Of course, it is even more impossible to invite a meal for the sake of the few catties of tea, don't treat people too ignorant.

Yang Shu believed that it was the result of comprehensive effects. He told Mr. Fu the day before he received the invitation that Teacher Tan Dun agreed to compose the music for "Love Letter from Heaven".

I remember Mr. Fu said at the time: "This is not easy. I remember that Tan Dun only wrote songs for Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, and Feng Xiaogang. Do you have friendship with him?"

At that time Yang Shu replied: "There is no friendship, it was a friend who set the bridge. I sent a sample of the work, and he agreed after seeing it. We haven't met yet."

"That's even more difficult."

However, it's easier for him to get along with Mr. Fu. Now there are not many people entertaining guests at home, and they even call their children back to accompany them.

If grandpa treats guests at home and asks Yang Shu to go back and sit with him, he may not be willing, and it seems unnecessary.

Is this publishing company really Luo Xue's friend?
Her father-in-law has been engaged in the film industry all his life, China Film is engaged in production and distribution, her husband studied theater management, and this is what he studies and teaches. There should be many people in theaters.

If it is poplar, it would be a pity for such a good condition if we don’t set up a white glove company.

"What is the name of your friend's company, and what works have they released?"

"It's called Tiange Media Co., Ltd. It has not released many films, but they all have good results. The most representative works are related to your hometown."

At this time, I was still playing charades, but Yang Shu quickly understood: "You mean "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains"?"

"Yes."

"Isn't this released by China Film?"

"Why do you think it's China Film? It's actually Tiange Media, or a joint issue between the two."

It doesn’t matter what you call it. The reason why I thought it was released by China Film Group was, of course, because of the controversial and unreasonably high screening rate of this movie.

Yang Shu has never heard of Tiange Media, but he knows about "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains".

This is an action movie co-starred by Dehua, Zhiling, and Jingchu. It was released the year before last with a box office of [-] million.

It was a success at the box office, but it was not. This film can be said to be a miracle in the history of mainland cinema. It was the first film to achieve zero praise.

Generally, no matter how bad a movie is, there are always people who appreciate or even praise it, but this movie shows everyone with its strength that the movie can really make all audiences unbearable. The current Douban score is 2.9.

Fortunately, two years later, "Chasing Dreams in the Showbiz" was released, with a score of 2.2 on Douban, which was the No. 1 bad movie, but it couldn't hide the light of "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" because the box office gap was huge.

"Dream Chasing Showbiz" is a youth film co-published by China Film Group, Dadi Times and Meiya Great Wall, with an investment of 500 million yuan and a box office of only 200 million yuan, which is 150 times less than the [-] million yuan of "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains".

Director Bi is still very capable. He brought in an investment of 500 million yuan, and the three companies jointly issued it, but the box office did not return a tenth of the cost.

It's also a bad movie. Could it be that the [-] million box office of "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" is for Dehua, Zhiling, and Jingchu's face?

I'm afraid not. Most of the serious works of these three people may not be able to reach this figure at the box office. Aren't those films worthy of face?

Yang Shu understands that the distribution company plays a big role in this. There are many tricks in the distribution, which are the kind of tricks that China Film may not dare to do.

The year before last, "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" caused great controversy when it was released. On the first day, the screening rate reached 30.00%. After it was released, it managed to earn 50.00 million at the box office, which felt like it had robbed the market.

At the same time, some works with excellent reputation and quality were neglected, even an award-winning work produced by Wong Kar Wai’s company could not be properly screened. He was so angry that he wrote articles and bombarded him, but no one liked him.

"Chasing the Dream Showbiz" is obviously not good in the showbiz. The first day of filming was so-so, the second day had a bad reputation, and the third day it was released.

In comparison, Tiange Media is really a top existence in the distribution industry, and its work is more powerful and ruthless than China Film itself.

Yang Shu said to himself: "Tiange Media?"

Luo Xue nodded: "Tiange Media."
