The star's wife's gold medal director husband

Chapter 131 131. Don't be too aggressive
"Minister Ying, please be sober. Regarding the regional distribution of "Midnight Ring" screenings, Yuanhang Film and Television has the final say. Yuanhang Film and Television deliberately arranges 80% of the movie theaters in remote small and medium-sized cities. "Midnight Ring", the box office does not exceed 2000 million, will eat up all the box office revenue in the end!" Ren Han is about to get angry.

"Xiao Ren, don't get excited, just listen to me..." Minister Ying raised his hand as a signal.

Ren Han ignored him at all, and then stated his point of view:
"You guys have been scolded by netizens for this ghost operation. Why are you blaming me for this? I'm just telling the truth. What do you mean by saying that I have taken all the responsibility away? Then again, big Many audiences in the city can’t buy movie tickets for "Midnight Ring", can it be my fault? When I discussed with Mr. Jiang earlier, he was only willing to provide a mere [-] theaters. Can this be my fault!" "

Originally, the unreasonable distribution of theaters was Yuanhang Film and Television’s own mistake. The majority of netizens criticized them, and that was their own fault. I didn’t expect Minister Ying to call out the thief, and beat him up, blaming Ren Han for posting on Weibo explaining that the adjustment of theater distribution was too hasty. , This made Ren Han feel very uncomfortable, he was just telling the truth.

originally.

Many netizens left messages in the Weibo comment area, why are there so few theaters in big cities, this is not fair.

Ren Han got Mr. Jiang's approval. Mr. Jiang said last night that the distribution of theaters in the future will be adjusted to take care of movie fans in big cities. Ren Han said this on the Internet to stabilize the fans. Heart.

Unexpectedly, when I came to the reception room of Yuanhang Film and Television today, Mr. Jiang has not come out to see him until now. The person who received him was the Minister of Ying. The Minister of Ying spoke so badly, so Ren Han would not give him face, so he had something to say directly. That is to say, I turned back.

"I'm sorry, both of you, I'm late and kept you waiting." The door of the reception room was pushed open with a creak, and Mr. Jiang strode into the venue, breaking the awkward atmosphere:

"Sorry, Mr. Ren, for keeping you waiting."

Mr. Jiang smiled and looked at Ren Han. Those who didn't know thought that the two of them were old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years. Mr. Jiang's attitude was a bit too affectionate.

Ren Han could see it. Earlier, Minister Hero said that the Weibo post last night was inappropriate. For this matter, Mr. Jiang is still being criticized in the chairman's office. Obviously, this excuse is a cover. Obviously, just now During the meeting between Minister Ying and Ren Han, Mr. Jiang must have been hiding outside and eavesdropping quietly. Maybe he came here because he felt that the situation was going out of control.

Ren Han also knew that these two guys must have discussed it in advance, one in the open and the other in the dark, first let Minister Ying and Ren Han negotiate to see Ren Han's attitude and bottom line, Mr. Jiang who is hiding in the dark , and slowly began to plan countermeasures, but the atmosphere of the conversation just now was too rigid, it seemed that Ren Han was about to leave, and President Jiang appeared belatedly.

Seeing Boss Jiang coming in, Ren Han didn't have a good impression of him at all. He thought this old fox was too much, and he called Ren Han to come over for a meeting yesterday, but after he came, this guy never showed up. It seems They have no sincerity in negotiating.

"President Jiang, the movie is still showing, and I still have things to do." Ren Han knew that the two people in front of him were full of bad water in their stomachs, and he didn't want to be polite to them. After all, the movie has already been released, the bottom line of life And attitude still can't be lowered.

"Mr. Ren, don't worry, I'm here to talk to you about movies." Mr. Jiang still smiled and made a gesture of invitation, which meant to ask Ren Han to sit down:

"Mr. Ren, we are all old acquaintances, if I have something to say, I will tell you directly!"

Ren Han couldn't help but want to sneer. If he hadn't been so angry and prepared to leave just now, Mr. Jiang would not have appeared suddenly. Will hide in the dark and quietly eavesdrop.

"Mr. Ren, the shareholder representatives of our company had a collective discussion this morning and felt that the two gambling agreements signed were unfair to you. We decided to make certain sacrifices so that you wouldn't suffer!" Mr. Jiang waved his hand , followed by:
"The shareholder representatives of Yuanhang Film and Television voted unanimously that the company fully supports "Midnight Ring," and we will increase the number of screenings in theaters, so that audiences in big cities can also buy tickets to watch "Midnight Ring". However, Mr. Ren, you also need to make a small concession. That is the previous gambling agreement. Regarding the box office after 2000 million, our share ratio, and re-sign the contract. As for the agreement you signed with the British minister, we still say the same , Guaranteed not to breach the contract, what do you see!" "

"Mr. Jiang, then you said that, how do you calculate the box office share!" Ren Han heard it. Mr. Jiang meant to modify the contract. According to the previous contract, as long as the box office exceeds 2000 million, it will be divided according to the ratio. Obviously, the box office The higher the value, the more disadvantaged Yuanhang Film and Television will be.

This guy obviously can't afford to gamble. He just wants to make money and not suffer losses. He thought it was impossible for the box office to exceed 2000 million, so Ren Han was forced to sign the gambling agreement, so they are willing to provide theater releases. Now that the box office of 2000 million is almost gone It's a certainty, and they want to change the rules again. This is not what the overlord clause is.

"June [-]th share, everyone cooperates for a win-win situation. No matter how high the box office performance is, we will not sign another agreement. Mr. Ren, what do you think?" Mr. Jiang deliberately looked conflicted, as if Ren Han had all the money It seems that he has suffered a big loss for himself.

Ren Han was speechless when he saw it. Such a philistine publisher is really shameless. Thinking about it, Ren Han felt chills.

"Mr. Jiang, you mean to renege on the contract." Ren Hanqi almost scolded people. He signed a gambling agreement before, and Ren Han also kept a hand. He was afraid that the total box office of the movie would not exceed 2000 million, so he did a lot of advertising operations in private. , advertised on major websites, and at the same time asked Li Jinju to post on Weibo to help promote it.

In order to get Ms. Li Jinju's assistance, Ren Han also agreed to write songs for her, and at the same time give back several of her own online songs, and let Ms. Li Jinju cover them for free, so that the box office will exceed 2000 million, and Ren Han will earn some money through the movie share.

During this period of time, for the film's box office, various contacts, and various departments have been running around. Ren Han still has a deep understanding of the ups and downs. Just modifying it casually like this is a contract in black and white, not a piece of nonsense, how can you modify it as soon as you say it is modified.

Once the gambling agreement is amended, Yuanhang Film and Television may indeed adjust the distribution of theaters in the future. The box office performance is up, but Yuanhang Film and Television will ask for more cuts. Then Ren Han is not doing the same thing for nothing. The money is earned, but the quantity Most of them were taken away by Yuanhang Film and Television, so the investment in the early stage was not in vain.Not even thinking about it, Ren Han refused in one breath.

As for Mr. Jiang's high-sounding statement, the other gambling agreement signed by Ren Han and Minister Ying, that is, whether the box office can exceed 2000 million within five days, is almost a certainty so far.

Taking a step back, this agreement, regardless of whether it breaks the contract or not, is not very lucrative for Ren Han. For Ren Han, the most important thing is that the gambling agreement signed with Mr. After the 2000 million box office, Ren Han can still make a lot of money according to the proportion of the box office, so when he called yesterday, Mr. Jiang fooled Ren Han, and came to discuss it today. Unexpectedly, after arriving, the other party really wanted to Modify the gambling agreement.

Now it seems that Yuanhang Film and Television relies on a hole card in its hand, that is, the next distribution of theaters, and whether it is willing to increase the number of screenings in movie theaters. It wants to use this condition to let Ren Han share the box office. Compromise in the sense, now Ren Han can see that he was being played like a monkey after he was too busy.

Previously, Yuanhang Film and Television thought that the box office performance of "Midnight Ring" was not good, and deliberately used the 2000 million box office watershed as a betting agreement, so they were willing to release "Midnight Ring". Now that the box office results are not bad, they want to revise it again. The rule, isn't it just watching Ren Han's "Midnight Bell", now it is released and released with the help of Yuanhang Film and Television. Although Ren Han has a good temper, anyone who is bullied into a corner will also fight back.

Mr. Jiang wanted to revise the VAM agreement, but of course Ren Han would not agree. At worst, according to the rules of the VAM agreement, a total of 6000 screenings would be over. Yuanhang Film and Television has the right to decide the distribution of "Midnight Ring", even if they Arrange for the theater to be screened, and choose the location in a small city. When the time comes, it will be Yuanhang Film and Television that will be scolded, and their reputation will be damaged.

Ren Han had thought about it a long time ago. The big deal is that the box office of this movie is so-so. He believes that as long as the 6000 screenings are over and the box office exceeds 2000 million, he will still be able to make a profit according to the share.

As long as this movie gets word of mouth, a sequel can be made in the future, and "Midnight Ring" can be used as a data IP. There must be other distributors willing to cooperate with him in the future. Are you afraid that you won't be able to make money by then? The big deal is this movie If you don't make money, just accumulate experience, and it won't be too late to make another fortune in the next movie. As for revising the agreement and re-determining the share, he will not agree.

Ren Han was merciless when he talked to these two old guys just now. He pointed out that they revised the gambling agreement because they wanted to unilaterally break the contract. Take some money!
"Xiao Ren, it's too much to talk about breaking the contract. Aren't we discussing this? Calm down, young people, don't be too arrogant." Minister Ying waved his hand, signaling Ren Han to be calm.

"Aren't you still called young people if you are not arrogant? The main reason is that you are too bullying. Because I am a new director, you use various rules to squeeze me. In fact, I don't want to say bad words. After all, everyone will cooperate in the future. Opportunity, but what you said just now made me very disappointed. Originally, "Midnight Ring" was handed over to Yuanhang Film and Television for distribution. I am grateful that you are willing to provide me with this platform. The purpose of our cooperation must be mutual benefit and win-win. But it’s inappropriate for you to eat only meat and let me drink soup alone!” Ren Han said angrily.

"Mr. Ren, because of the busy schedule for the movie, the gambling agreement has also been put together. It's really not good for us to do this." Mr. Jiang said at this time, pondering for a while:

"Previously, netizens didn't complain. There were too few screenings in many big cities, so I might as well make a decision. For the movie distribution in the next few days, try to adjust "Midnight Ring" to big cities as much as possible. "The Ring" is a big hit at the box office, adding a fire, but there is a premise. Earlier, we agreed that the promotional expenses of "Midnight Ring" will be shared equally. However, at present, Mr. Ren needs to pay the money alone. Pay out of your pocket, otherwise, we Yuanhang will have the final say on the distribution of theaters in the next few days. After all, the rules are very clear. Mr. Ren should not object to this!"

As soon as this was said, Ren Han was almost furious when he heard it. In order to maximize the benefits, Yuanhang Film and Television really didn't even want face.

Previously, Yuanhang thought that the box office of "Midnight Ring" would not exceed 2000 million. At Ren Han's pleading, Yuanhang Film and Television signed a gambling agreement with Ren Han and released "Midnight Bell" at the same time. At that time, Yuanhang Film and Television's wishful thinking was that the box office It will not exceed 2000 million, and all the box office will be eaten by then, and Ren Han will not be given a penny.

but.

In the past two days, the movie viewing popularity of "Midnight Ring" has been soaring. Obviously, it has exceeded 2000 million, and there is no pressure. That's why Mr. Jiang asked Ren Han to come over and wanted to sign a new agreement with him. To put it bluntly, he just wanted to ask for more into.

And they also used a prerequisite, that is, Yuanhang Cinema, which has the right to determine the theater's regional distribution in the future, whether it is "Midnight Ring" that will be screened more often in small cities, or whether most of the screenings will be arranged in big cities. Cities, to put it bluntly, want to get more share.

Seeing that Ren Han was determined and unwilling to amend the betting agreement, they started to play tricks on the promotional expenses. Previously, the pre-screening promotion of "Midnight Bell" had agreed that the expenses would be shared equally. Now, Yuanhang Film and Television actually wanted Ren Han to pay the money alone. If Ren Han did not agree, then they would not adjust the distribution of theaters in the future.

Seeing that "Midnight Bell" has such a strong box office momentum, I want to re-sign the agreement, but Ren Han refuses to agree, and Mr. Jiang wants to make a fuss about the advertising expenses. The previously agreed advertising expenses will be shared equally. Mr. Jiang Time was running out and he didn't want to, so he used the theater's next distribution, this hole card, to blackmail Ren Han.

In fact, Mr. Jiang also knows to do this, and he can't scare Ren Han at all.

Yuanhang Film and Television belongs to the kind of company that distributes and arranges films together, and they play a movie, and their profits are quite considerable.
