Huayu Zhihao

Chapter 90 Doubt
"Have you ever thought about signing up for the film festival and getting an award for "Moon" this time?" Yu Dong said with a smile.

The previous box office of "Comet" broke tens of millions, and the New Wave Awards and Golden Horse Awards are undoubtedly a big boost. The effect of these two awards is definitely comparable to the promotional expenses of millions!
So after discussing the movie promotion plan, Yu Dong couldn't help but joked.

Chen Hao laughed when he heard the words, "I've already signed up!"

"Really signed up?" Yu Dong was taken aback when he heard this, "What film festival did you sign up for?"

"Cannes!" Chen Hao said.

"Cannes?!" Even Assistant Li couldn't help being surprised this time.

After all, the popularity and influence of the three major European films in China definitely surpass the Golden Horse Awards. With the Golden Globes and Oscars out of reach, the three major European films can be said to be the highest hall of honor for Chinese filmmakers.

"Are you sure?" Yu Dong asked immediately.

"Of course not!" Chen Hao shook his head.

The influence of Cannes is world-class. This is a grand event for global movies. All the films that can be shortlisted are excellent movies. "Moon" is naturally not bad, but if you want to win an award, you must not be sure of winning!
Yu Dong also shook his head with a smile when he heard the words, he was too greedy, Chen Hao was still so young, it was really difficult for him to win an award in Cannes.

"However, although there is not much certainty of winning the award, as long as it can be shortlisted, it will attract attention. With the influence of Cannes, it should be able to have a good publicity effect." Chen Hao said.

Yu Dong nodded when he heard the words, "The quality of "Moon" is good, but if you are shortlisted, you should have a chance!"

"I hope, it will be soon anyway, and we will know by the end of the month." Chen Hao said.

Then the three discussed the issue of film distribution.

Bernard and Huaying will collect 15% of the producer's box office revenue as distribution remuneration, and the producer's share is still only 35% of the splittable box office.

Chen Hao shook his head helplessly, his influence was still too weak after all, and he could only force the theater to make concessions after the National Teacher's "Hero" was released at the end of the year.

The share of "Hero" should have reached 40%, and other films also benefited from it. The share of the box office increased by an average of 2 points, reaching 37%!

Subsequently, the film studio and the theater conveniently started a conflict of interests that lasted for more than ten years.

Relying on the influence of each blockbuster of Guoshi and other blockbusters such as "Red Cliff" to continuously exert pressure, of course, there are also reasons for the continuous boom of the mainland film market. In the past ten years, the share ratio of film studios has increased by 10 percentage points!

It is really too difficult, and this ratio is still quite different from that of the United States and other countries.

At the same time, this is also the treatment only for blockbuster movies. Even after many years, the general movie may only have 35% of the share, and it is not uncommon to drop a few points for more movies.

After all, it still depends on your fame and box office appeal!
As for the movie's release date, it's set for Thursday, May 5.

This year's Cannes International Film Festival will close on May 5. If "Moon" can win the award, it will just wait for media reports to ferment for a few days, and then it will be released directly on the basis of the popularity of Cannes!

……

After the three parties discussed the promotion and distribution plan of "Moon", Chen Hao felt a lot more relaxed. Now he only needs to wait for the Cannes shortlist and the arrival of May 5th.

It's just that when Chen Hao was free, he met Ning Hao who returned to the studio with a disappointed face.

"What's the matter, Ning Zi?" Chen Hao asked.

"Didn't you introduce Berna to me, but he is not very optimistic about the box office expectations of "Incense"." Ning Hao sighed.

Chen Hao raised his brows when he heard that, "Incense" is a literary film, and its box office will definitely not be very good, "Ningzi, have you ever thought about making a commercial film like me?"

"Commercial film?" Ning Hao frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Seeing this, Chen Hao sighed in his heart. Ning Hao's current mentality is probably the same as that of many academic directors. He looks down on commercial films, and is even ashamed of making commercial films, but he wants to prove his art with the box office!
In their view, making a commercial film is depravity and a tarnish to film art. This is one of the reasons why there is so little commercial film directors in China now and even before the film market is booming.

"How about this, how about you participate in the film festival first like me? If you have a trophy, you will definitely be famous, and you may have a box office at that time." Chen Hao said.

Ning Hao nodded upon hearing the words, "That's the only way to go."

"Okay, let's go to the teacher now to see if he has any connections, and then I will inquire for you." Chen Hao smiled and pulled Ning Hao out of the studio together.

……

Sohu Entertainment reported: Talented director Chen Hao's new film "Moon" has been filmed!It's just that it took less than 2 months from the start of the film to the completion of the film. I'm sure I'm not joking! ?
Netease Entertainment: The latest sci-fi blockbuster directed by Xinxing only took two months to complete. Do you still think "Moon" is worth looking forward to?
New Wolf Entertainment: The new sci-fi film "Moon" from the director of "Comet" has been revealed to have been filmed. Is Chen Hao a fast shooter?Or has the investor's 2000 million yuan been wasted?

……

What Chen Hao didn't expect was that the news of "Moon" being finalized was known by the media so quickly, and the media reports were not very friendly, full of doubts!
However, a sci-fi movie with special effects was completed in less than two months, and most people would doubt it!

Chen Hao just smiled at this, and he didn't intend to explain it. After all, he didn't see the finished film, so those who should be suspicious will still be suspicious.

But soon the discussion about "Moon" expanded because Feng Dapao spoke.

""Comet" is a false sci-fi that sells 1000 million yuan. It's just that everyone was deceived. Now look at "Moon". The sci-fi film was completed in less than February. Huh? Undoubtedly a bad movie!"

Feng Dapao's words made the media explode in an instant, and he was so happy that he wanted to kiss him twice.

And Chen Hao and "Moon" were instantly pushed to the forefront, attracting countless attention and drool!

The media is arguing endlessly over Feng Dapao's words, what about "Moon"?
Most of the media held a negative attitude, some people remained neutral, and only a small part of the media gave support!

It's really embarrassing for a group of people who haven't seen the finished film to analyze this and that!

Discussions about "Moon" quickly spread to the Internet!

China Entertainment Reporter: Two months is indeed a bit fast, but with "Comet" alone, I will go to the cinema to see how "Moon" is going to be!
Reader 1533296848328111: It's only been filmed for two months, and it's a sci-fi film about the moon. No matter how you look at it, it's unreliable!

Holding hands to meet: Yes, I was looking forward to the director's new work because of "Comet", but now I give up!

Huanyue Wushuang m: "Comet" is good. I thought that there could be a good science fiction film director in China, but now it seems that it is really a dream!

Qinglian Earth: Although two months is indeed a bit fast, what if Chen Hao is a fast shooter!I haven't seen the movie with my own eyes, but I still look forward to it!
Sweet Poetry: Don't be stupid upstairs, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment!
Huang Yutianxia: I'm just making soy sauce, you guys continue!
