The star's wife's gold medal director husband

Chapter 73 73. Publisher of Philistines
"In terms of the box office, we can talk about it. For President Qin's sake, let's split the bill on June [-]th, and the two companies will each pay half of the publicity expenses. How about it?" President Jiang finished speaking, looking at Ren Han.

Mr. Jiang's intentions are very clear. He just wanted to save Qin Chuan's face, so he agreed to release Ren Han's "Midnight Bell". , The box office doesn't know yet, Mr. Jiang is deliberately fooling.

Now that Ren Han wants something from others, he has no choice but to lower his airs:

"Mr. Jiang, we only provide 500 theaters and show 3 times, can we have more!"

"That's right, Mr. Jiang, you are a leader among distributors. I just introduced Ren Han here. You can add more. 500 theaters are indeed too few. You Yuanhang has a total of 1 theaters!" Qin Chuan took over the topic.

"Look at what Mr. Qin said, no matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. Let's try it in 500 theaters. If the box office is okay, we can continue to discuss it!" Mr. Jiang sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, shaking his shiny leather shoes .

"Before the Spring Festival, there are no Lunar New Year films released, and a large number of theaters are idle. To you, 500 theaters are like drizzle, so you can't be generous!" Qin Chuan joked half-falsely, speaking in a very peaceful tone No matter what the identity of Mr. Jiang is, he doesn't dare to offend him.

Qin Chuan secretly winked at Ren Han, invisibly selling his favor.

"Hey, Mr. Qin, I also have my own difficulties. There are 1 movie theaters in Yuanhang Cinema, and the daily maintenance is not a small expense. As long as any theater is used, it will be paid out in real money. Ah, this is Mr. Ren’s first time making a movie. "Midnight Ring" is still a thriller. Our theater has never shown a similar movie before. If the box office is poor, I will lose a lot of money!" Mr. Jiang sighed helplessly. tone.

Qin Chuan was a little bit aggrieved, knowing that Mr. Jiang deliberately made excuses to prevaricate, but he retorted unreasonably. Mr. Jiang was telling the truth.

As long as the screen of Yuanhang Cinema is empty, it saves maintenance costs, but if it is assigned to "Midnight Ring", once it is used, the maintenance cost will also increase. This is like a factory machine shutting down. It's like wasting a lot of power.

If the box office of "Midnight Ring" is not strong, Yuanhang Cinema will lose money to a large extent.

Qin Chuan argued hard, and Ren Han was very grateful to him, but Mr. Jiang was skeptical about "Midnight Ring", and his attitude towards cooperation was very harsh, which made Ren Han very frustrated.

Mr. Jiang is very straightforward and can think clearly with his ass. He doesn't trust "Midnight Bell" and is willing to show it in 500 theaters. To put it bluntly, he will sell Qin Chuan a favor. If Ren Han came to the door privately Negotiations have already been shut down.

In terms of movie releases, Mr. Jiang has a dominant position in "Midnight Ring".

"Mr. Jiang, are you pessimistic about "Midnight Bell"?" Ren Han smiled neither humble nor overbearing.

"Mr. Ren, "Midnight Ring" is well filmed. I don't deny it, but I don't have confidence in restricted-level movies. Now I don't know how the audience responds to "Midnight Ring". Other theaters have also screened restricted-level movies. Movies are all blockbusters, and the box office of 600 million ended in a hurry," Mr. Jiang sighed, and said in the tone of someone who has been here:

"Restricted movies cannot be suitable for all ages. This is a devastating blow to the market positioning. Only when there are many people watching can the box office be high. In my opinion, literary films, romance films, historical films, Documentaries, these movies suitable for all ages, are the main theme in the general environment!""

"How will you know if you don't try it, what if "Midnight Ring" becomes popular!" Ren Han smiled.

"Mr. Ren, don't you just want to make a big fortune with a small amount? The cost of restricted movies is low, and the returns are many times that of ordinary movies. Once they become popular, they may make a lot of money. You also want to take a gamble, right? But you I have overlooked one point, foreign cultures are different from ours. You may watch a lot of foreign thrillers and think they are all good, but it is different when you shoot them yourself. It is very likely that we are not acclimatized in our own country. Young people, want to shoot Movies are a good thing, but be more pragmatic!""

Mr. Jiang said a lot of truths, all of which are correct bullshit nonsense. Who doesn't understand the truth, but practice it himself, who knows the follow-up development. Ren Han gritted his teeth and said firmly:

"Mr. Jiang, I have a gamble. You're right. How about this? I'll go all out. If I win the bet, we'll make money together. If I lose, I'll pay off all the deficits by myself. How can this be possible!""

No matter how good a movie is, a stage without a show is useless. Ren Han doesn't want to give up. Yuanhang Cinema is an established distribution company. He knows that the water in the entertainment industry is deeper than the Pacific Ocean. Now he is just a rookie director. It can be screened smoothly, and I admit that I have suffered a bit!

"Oh? How is Mr. Ren going to bet?"

Hearing Ren Han's words, Mr. Jiang asked with interest.

"Yuanhang allocated 2000 theaters for "Midnight Ring", and we shared the promotional expenses equally. The total box office in the later period did not exceed [-] million, so I don't want a cent!"

Ren Han said word by word, before, Mr. Jiang only promised to provide 500 theaters, with a total of 1500 shows.

Mr. Jiang heard that the box office does not exceed 2000 million, and he doesn’t want a penny. This made him interested. He thought that Ren Han had said something wrong, so he stared straight at him, seeing that Ren Han was very decisive. .

"If the box office of "Midnight Ring" exceeds 2000 million, as long as it does not reach the 5000 million point, we will split the proceeds between six and four!"

"More than 5000 million, if the box office does not reach [-] million, [-]% of the account, more than [-] million, [-]% of the account! I am eight! Mr. Jiang, you will not suffer from this cooperation!" Ren Han looked at Mr. Jiang, full of confidence said.

Gold always shines. Ren Han feels that "Midnight Ring" is a jade in the rough, and now it needs a platform for exposure.

past life.

Ren Han's movie started with a box office of [-] million. In this parallel world, although it is the first work of the director, let alone the box office rules of this world, I am not very familiar with it, so I am not sure about the first work. With a box office of more than [-] million, a box office of a little tens of millions is still confident.

Ren Han knows the problem of being a businessman and a philistine, and the box office revenue has risen in the later stage. Let alone 2000 theaters, it is no wonder that Mr. Jiang did not follow his ass to discuss increasing the number of theaters.

The cooperation proposal mentioned by Ren Han just now, no matter what the box office performance is, Yuanhang Cinema will make a steady profit without losing money. If Ren Han’s movie has a high box office, Jiang can always drink soup. The publicity fee is shared equally, even if the movie ends badly, at least some of the box office revenue can be recovered.

Ren Han is different. If the box office results cannot break through 2000 million, let alone the box office revenue, the promotional expenses in the early stage will be in vain.

Thinking of this, Mr. Jiang laughed loudly:
"Mr. Ren, you are too good!"
.
Mr. Jiang doesn't know why Ren Han is so confident, but if the box office is less than 2000 million, Ren Han is worthless, which makes Mr. Jiang very tempted.

From the tidbits of "Midnight Ring", it can be vaguely seen that this movie is definitely better than other thrillers, and it is not a star and a half worse than other restricted movies of the same type.

First of all, Mr. Jiang is only willing to take out a small number of theaters to go online. After all, the market is not optimistic about restricted-level movies. Some people object to this kind of movie, let alone a low-cost production. Good or bad luck at the box office is very important. With a broken belly, it is not bad that the box office can exceed [-] million.

"Mr. Jiang, there is really no other way. Only by breaking the boat can we be reborn. I really want to take a gamble! It depends on whether Mr. Jiang is willing to provide a platform!" Ren Han smiled helplessly.

"Mr. Ren, there is still one week left for post-editing of the movie, and you have a lot of time to think about it. Why do you have to settle the deal today?" Qin Chuan quietly touched Ren Han with his knee, reminding him secretly.

What Qin Chuan said was all for Ren Han's exam.

Previously, some theaters also screened thrillers, and one can imagine how dismal the box office was. Some investors committed suicide by jumping off the building. Qin Chuan advised Ren Han to be careful and not to step on the pitfalls. Ren Han's "Midnight Bell" During the filming process, the budget was only 1000 million. In addition to the post-production editing and publicity, it is conservatively estimated that the box office will not exceed 2000 million, and Ren Han may lose all his money.

Mr. Jiang didn't want to miss this opportunity, not to mention Qin Chuan advised him not to express his opinion immediately. Mr. Jiang was afraid that Ren Han would go back on his word and hang up, so he laughed and said:
"Mr. Ren, how should I put it? In principle, I don't want to cooperate with you. Seeing that you are a young director, I feel a little sorry for not helping you, a junior. The conditions you talked about are okay. Okay, let's make it so." !"

Ren Han is not an idiot either, he knows that the other party is cheap and acts like a good boy, he said some insincere words, at least he agreed to cooperate, which is not bad, Ren Han deliberately laughed like an idiot:
"Mr. Jiang takes care of us young people like this, it is really a clean stream in the entertainment industry, happy, refreshing!"

Ren Han pretended to be silly and sweet, strode over, reached out and shook hands in greeting.

"Haha, Mr. Ren, I admire you young people for daring to think, do, and break new ground. Some adult directors are too tired to talk about cooperation. I like your straight-forward personality. Don't worry about the contract. Let the secretary come right away. After drafting, once the contract is signed, once the post-editing of "Midnight Ring" is completed, it can be arranged to be launched in theaters at any time!""

After speaking, the two shook hands again.

Seeing Mr. Jiang's villainous laughter, Ren Han cooperated with him and deliberately laughed. The other party might regard him as an idiot, but Ren Han also mocked him in his heart. When the movie is released, you will know how powerful he is.
