The star's wife's gold medal director husband

Chapter 84 84. Do you dare to bet with me

previously.

The VAM agreement is very clear, as long as the box office does not exceed 2000 million, Ren Han will not get a cent of it.

Mr. Jiang believes that as long as the Spring Festival and New Year's Day files are staggered, it is relatively easy to control the box office of "Midnight Bell" below 2000 million. The number of viewers in normal times is definitely not as large as that of important festivals. Besides, this The movie is also a movie with a restricted level. For the sake of insurance, the prime time is deliberately staggered.

Not to mention.

It will be released on January 1, and the timing of the card is relatively good. Between the New Year's Day schedule and the Spring Festival schedule, the schedule during this period is better than the general off-season box office.

Mr. Jiang's goal is very clear, as long as the box office is controlled below 2000 million, the closer to 2000 million is the best, so that Yuanhang Film and Television can maximize its profits.

Ren Han also thought about it. Yuanhang Cinema has many ways to bully him. Apart from making a fuss about the release time, it can also manipulate the radiation of the theater. Previously, it promised to provide Ren Han with 3000 silver screens, and each theater will show it three times. , a total of 6000 screenings.

For the theaters arranged by Yuanhang Cinemas, the focus is on small cities below the third tier, or small county towns. As for the first-tier big cities, each city can only symbolically arrange a theater.

The most desired result of Yuanhang Cinema, the box office is about 2000 million, but it is not yet 2000 million, the most cost-effective.

Ren Han knows how deep the water in the film and television industry is with his eyes closed. Ren Han knows these showy operations better than anyone else.

Previously, if he dared to sign the betting agreement, he still had his eyes on the market value of "Midnight Bell", otherwise Ren Han would not dare to bet. As long as this movie is truly recognized by the audience, no matter when it is released, it will have little impact. factors are objective factors.

The quality of the movie is the biggest factor. If the quality of the movie is not good, no matter how tricky or opportunistic it is.

Ren Han agreed to Mr. Jiang's release time without even thinking about it.

"Since Mr. Ren agrees with our plan, let's just say that, we will help you with the follow-up procedures. Please come over today to explain the situation to you!" Mr. British Minister said:

"Today is the operation department, and I specially made an appointment with Mr. Ren. The specific situation, the leader, let you talk about it!"

Minister Ying snorted coldly, cleared his throat, and said straight to the point:
"Mr. Ren, let me tell you straight, about the promotional work of "Midnight Ring", the few promotional videos you posted, I don't think so!""

"Which aspect of your problem is it? Please tell Minister Ying!" Ren Han understands that this guy is picking his nose and eyes, and this guy is in charge of the movie. The reason why this guy invited Ren Han over is because Ren Han privately He didn't respect him here, and the bastard wanted to make trouble for it.

Minister Ying pointedly said:

"I have watched all the promotional videos you posted earlier. As an adult, I feel that some bloody scenes are not suitable for me. Look, how about deleting some disgusting scenes? I can't find other topics except bloody topics. Is it the inspiration material, overall, this movie is okay, I think some bloody scenes can be deleted, the effect may be better!””

As soon as the words fell, Ren Han retorted decisively:
"Minister Ying, this "Midnight Ring" is a thriller. This film does not promote monsters and ghosts. It mainly focuses on bloody horror. If I delete all the elements you mentioned, then this movie will be a big mess." Like plain water, tasteless!""

"Delete the bloody plot and fill in other plots appropriately. I saw a few leading actresses who are all beautiful. You might as well design some very sexy plots in it. Human beings have curious characteristics, and most of them The people who watch horror movies are all men, and the sexy ones are definitely a big selling point, and you can even add a small amount of romance movie plot!" Minister Ying looked like pointing Jiangshan.

Since the introduction of movie rating classification, apart from thrillers and romantic movies, there is also a market. Many producers have captured the psychological characteristics of human beings who seek novelty and beauty, and have shot some works that are only suitable for adults to watch.

After Minister Ying finished speaking, several people at the scene glanced at each other and nodded respectively.

Among the restricted-level movies, Fengyue movies are indeed very popular, and Yuanhang Film and Television Company also knows this, not to mention that the surname Ying is so good, he put forward his own bullshit suggestion.

"Minister Ying, this is your suggestion to me!" Ren Han stared at him.

"That's all for now, and I'll add more when I think of other things!" Minister Ying coughed and continued:
"Mr. Ren, you are a newcomer who has just made a film, and all the suggestions we give are for your own good, you know!""

Ren Han understood what this guy meant, but he didn't do anything in private. This guy was picking his nose and eyes. On the surface, he said it was for his own good, but in fact he was bullshitting. All the bullshit opinions he raised were of no use at all. .

Ren Han is not afraid of crooked shadows. In this parallel world, the film industry already has a clear document that can make restricted-level movies.

It's not that he doesn't dare to make romantic movies, nor is it that this world doesn't allow romantic movies.

It's just that "Midnight Ring" is a thriller, and he doesn't want to confuse horror movies with romance movies.

Thinking of this, Ren Han showed a look of disdain:

"Minister Ying, your suggestion is not helpful to "Midnight Ring", I thought you would provide constructive suggestions, or in other words, my plot should be improved appropriately, but you asked me to delete some plots, so the plot Is it interesting if it doesn’t match up before and after! Also, I’m not afraid to make romantic films, and the law is not against it. My film is a thriller, and I don’t want to present ethical issues in it!”

Ren Han said that enough restraint, he even suspected that the trash in front of him didn't read the posters, and he was just fooling around out of thin air, bullying him as a newcomer, and he didn't know how this trash got into a high position. Money bought it.

The most exasperating thing is that Yuanhang Film and Television probably can't afford to offend the great god in front of him, all of them are accompanied by smiling faces like pug dogs, which makes Ren Han even more angry.

The Yuanhang Film and Television led by this gang of scumbags will come to an end sooner or later. Real movies, in addition to following the laws of the market, must also follow the laws of the plot.

After Ren Han finished speaking, several high-level executives of Yuanfang Film and Television frowned, feeling dissatisfied in their hearts. They were very worried that what Ren Han said just now annoyed Minister Ying and hindered the normal release of "Midnight Ring".

Ren Han saw what they meant, and shook his head helplessly. He was even worried about the future development of Yuanhang Film and Television. Once all the old capital is eaten up, it will collapse in the future.

"Hey, it seems that Mr. Ren has a very thoughtful understanding of movies, so let me tell you what you think about "Midnight Ring", we also want to hear your opinions!" Minister Ying asked arrogantly.

The subtext is, what are you, a stupefied young man, who dares to argue with me, believe it or not, I will completely block your movie, and there will be no chance for you to cry.

Ren Han took a sip from his water glass, and retorted seriously:

"Minister Ying, you asked me to delete the bloody scenes. After the deletion, the plot is incoherent. What should the audience do if they don't buy it? Also, you asked me to add some romantic scenes, how can I edit them in, and find the original crew. Obviously impossible, several crew members are old actors. After the filming of "Midnight Ring" was finished, they joined other crews, and now they can't miss the schedule. Also, "Midnight Ring" is originally a thriller, not a romance film, why should I make a romantic drama! ""

"I asked you to add some episodes of Fengyue, isn't it to help you increase the attendance rate? Besides, "Midnight Ring" is a low-cost movie. It is very difficult to add a small amount of episodes of Fengyue. Besides, most of the actors in this movie They are all newcomers, is it difficult for you to pay more and invite them back!" Minister Ying said with a curled lip.

"Why don't you ask me to re-shoot, even if I recruit those actors again, let's not talk about the salary and behind-the-scenes expenses, if the leading actor does not agree to a large-scale stage, can I force others? Besides, such sneaky , will definitely attract paparazzi, how to keep secret work, I wonder, why should a good thriller become a romantic movie!" Ren Han shook his head, and then said:
"Even if according to you, all the work has to be done again, the audience will go to the cinema, and after watching it, they must feel that I have deceived them. The horror movie advertised on the poster has turned into a romance movie. Let's not talk about this movie If you hit the street, then my personal reputation will be ruined, so should I hang out in the movie circle in the future! ""

"As for the secrecy work, it's Mr. Ren's own business. Many famous directors have also made romantic films, and other people's secrecy work is still good. Since you have the ability to build a crew, the paparazzi is nothing to you. What!" Minister Ying stood up and spoke without pain in his back, he really thought that making a movie was like hiccupping and farting, and he said it lightly.

"Minister Ying, now the level of movies has been relaxed. Romantic movies are not illegal. If there is a chance, you can also make romantic movies in the future. "Midnight Ring" is a thriller. It uses horror as its selling point instead of portraying ethics. You said earlier, Adding the Fengyue segment is to attract popularity, I disagree with your point of view!" Ren Han retorted with reason:

"I don't deny that Fengyue movies conform to some people's values, but not everyone likes Fengyue movies, at least some people are disgusted. The "Midnight Ring" I shot is a horror movie, and I don't want anyone to see it. Movies, equating it with Fengyue movies, this is a kind of blasphemy to the audience and me!" "

"Mr. Ren, it's a bit preposterous for you to say that!" Minister Ying decisively interrupted Ren Han's explanation.

"Minister Ying, someone once said that everything that is reasonable exists, and everything that exists must be reasonable. Thrillers, romantic movies, some people like them, and some people hate them. Some people hate watching thrillers, just as some people hate Like Fengyue movies, I did not deny the value of Fengyue movies, I just said that "Midnight Ring" is a thriller, there is no need to use the gimmicks of Fengyue movies to attract popularity, it violates my original intention of making movies! Just like some directors, In order to shoot classic works, unwilling to take money from sponsors, it is like placing advertisements in movies!" "

After Ren Han finished speaking, he took another sip of water and breathed a sigh of relief.

Several high-level executives of Yuanhang Cinema did not make a sound, they all felt that what Ren Han said made sense.

In recent months, the film rating has been relaxed. Many thrillers and romantic films have been released in theaters one after another. Many people want to use the current gimmicks to gain economic value through the means of gaining positions, which is similar to the headline party.

A lot of movies are peddlers, and the content and the title have nothing to do with it. Some movies are called historical dramas, but after watching them for 10 minutes, they feel like young and Dangerous, urban dramas.

This British minister thinks he is right, but actually he doesn't understand anything. Seeing that Ren Han is a cutting-edge director, he always wants to teach him how to behave and do things in the role of someone who has experienced it.

Minister Ying was very unconvinced, but couldn't find a suitable reason to refute, so angry that his face turned green, and he complained for the sake of complaining:
"Anyway, "Midnight Ring" was badly filmed. It is said that Potian is also a bad drama. The box office cannot exceed 2000 million. I guess no one will watch it!""

"Minister Ying, "Midnight Ring" hasn't been released yet. Who knows that the next box office will be lost. I signed a gambling agreement with Yuanhang Film and Television. If you are not convinced, we will also sign a gambling agreement. I'm afraid of you Dare!" Ren Han provoked him with a smile.

Ren Han also wished that the surname Ying would also sign a VAM agreement, at least this guy would not have trouble with the movie "Midnight Ring" in the next few days, at least it would be released normally!

Although Mr. Jiang is also eager for the box office of "Midnight Bell" to be less than 2000 million, but he is even more displeased with the surname Ying. This guy relies on his own power and usually mixes with Yuanhang Company for no reason. Everyone has long been disgusted with it. Just dare to be angry but dare not speak.

Just now.

Ren Han was neither humble nor overbearing, and he kept on hating the surname Ying. Mr. Jiang was still a little happy in his heart, but seeing that the anger of the two of them was getting up, Mr. Jiang had no choice but to smooth things over:

"Hahaha, Mr. Ren, I appreciate your courage and courage. You have already signed a betting agreement with our Yuanhang company, which has shown that you are very confident in your works. Why bother to bet with Minister Ying." "

Then, Mr. Jiang turned his head and said to Minister Ying:
"Leader, Mr. Ren has signed a betting agreement with our company, which shows that he values ​​his works very much. I think the leader should not bet with him. He is still young, and it is normal to be angry. You should not bet with him." Comparing!"

"Mr. Jiang, I want to sign a VAM agreement with Minister Ying alone. It has nothing to do with the previous VAM agreement. Doesn't Minister Ying dislike my movie? Well, it depends on whether he has it or not." Dare to bet with me!" Ren Han said confidently.

"Earlier, I heard that Mr. Ren and Mr. Jiang signed a gambling agreement. I wanted to ask Mr. Ren how you plan to bet with me. As long as you tell me the specific way to play, I will accompany you!" Minister Ying said without showing any weakness.
