And this moment.

During the meeting of the TV drama department at Penguin Film and Television, the director of the TV drama department was helpless and angrily said: "You really are, why can't you meet a few good TV dramas? Nowadays, Youku and Kiwi There are endowment insurance over there, so we should work harder here.”

The employees of the TV drama department avoided speaking.

what can they doOf course they are also optimistic about "Meritorious Service", but the problem is that it is useless for them to be optimistic. Kiwi has an agreement with Jiaxing Media.

When it comes to the agreement, you have to talk about it.

It's not because you looked down on Jiaxing Media at the beginning, which made Penguin Films and Television take advantage of it.

Regret it now.

Up to now, Penguin Film and Television has indeed regretted it, because their leading position is no longer guaranteed.

Under the joint attack of Kiwifruit Jiaxing Media, whether it is them or Youku.

This is what Lu Chen bet on.

As for video sites.

It can be said that they suppressed them in all directions.

To put it bluntly, which side it stands on can determine the rise of that side.

Again.

the following few days.

The "Elder" seems to be disrupting the situation. It's so embarrassing to watch. Didn't the military chase down all the robots at first, but then cooperated with the Decepticons and chased the Autobots all the time? Is it because of Optimus Prime's face?I really didn't understand that those few special display lenses of the Decepticons were selling advertisements?The special effects are rough and a lot of incongruity should be due to rush work, but in retrospect, the plot of Changing 4 is already pretty good..."

Therefore,
Lu Chen and the others didn't pay much attention to Youku and Penguin's next counterattack plan.Even if they practice their hands.

However, accepting interviews at this moment is undoubtedly a kind of publicity. He has accepted several other films. If he does not accept interviews, he will feel very out of group.

He practiced his kiwi fruit with Jiaxing Media, and was able to launch several online dramas every month.

But compared with before.

The eyes of movie fans across the country once again fell on Lu Chen. The wave that had calmed down before surged again, and the overwhelming media directly sent invitations to Lu Chen.

Ugly country,

Watching the TV station, I have to endure the advertisements mixed in from time to time.

If you shoot one web drama, you can shoot three or four here.

The first is membership income. Video websites currently implement a membership system, and membership requires payment.

then.

They can only retreat steadily.

And the boss over there is Liu Shishi.

This is the truth.

The first part of the summer file was cold when it opened.

Even the theater chains controlled by the Big Six still want to make money.

There are three main profit methods for domestic video websites.

Simply do the math.

Just like when two armies confront each other.

However, Lu Chen believes that when "Jurassic Park" is released, the screening rate will increase.As for how much it will rise, it depends on the potential of "Jurassic Park".

time flies.

The cost of manpower is also very high. The theater will save personnel expenses, and the annual expenditure of 10 contract workers will also be between 100 million and 130 million yuan.

Again, theaters also want to make money.

When buying xenon lamps and lights, the cost of this part is 30 to 40 yuan.

Lu Chen didn't take it to heart either.

After the collapse of Huasheng Films and Xindu Films, there has been no turmoil in the film industry. Of course, it may also be because Lu Chen's wave scared other people.

Undoubtedly, "Meritorious Service" must be at the top of the list, which is also in line with Jiaxing Media's consistent status of TV dramas. Whether it is popularity or other aspects, this drama has crushed the existence of the same period.

All David TVs are still being beaten by "Meritorious Service", and "Meritorious Service" has also used crushing ratings to soar all the way, making other satellite TVs helpless. There is no way, such a drama has a natural audience, no matter what Whether the types overlap or not, they can only be beaten.

"Mike Bay announced (again) that this would be his "last Transformers," yet we've all seen his "last two" Transformers and will be watching his last three, final Four and the last fifteen are not out of the question."

When the gap is not large, all kinds of tricks will be used. When the gap between the two armies is no longer at the same level, then there is no need for any tricks.

The perspective returns to the film circle.

"Lu Chen's new movie."

That is, 5.00% of Liushi's copyrights in the market are in Shichen Studio.

Lu Chen didn't have time to accept the interview.

"This film is also known as "It Has Nothing To Do With King Kong", "The Autobots", "Little Yellow Car vs. Little Blue Car", "TF Boy Saves the World", "Let's Watch Car Rain Again", "How to Insert a Movie in an Advertisement" " The adrenaline is not bursting, the bladder is bursting first", "Does this movie need 9 screenwriters?" "Liar, I didn't see him become King Kong after waiting for 2 hours" and "Western World Special: Dr. Ford is tired of playing with the receptionist" play with a car man"

It is difficult for Jiaxing Media's TV dramas to break five or even six, because now the TV dramas on video sites are almost updated simultaneously, and many viewers are used to watching TV dramas on video sites instead of watching TV stations all the time.

Straight push.

Who do you think the audience chooses?

The current Kiwi, the relationship between Penguin Films and Youku is like this, and Kiwi now has a faint intention to narrow the gap with the two.

Now the rent accounts for 40% to 50% of the box office revenue of the entire theater. With 1500 seats, the annual rent is 1000 million yuan, which is very common in cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen.

Audiences in Ugly Country are no stranger to his name,

To put it bluntly, he is quite familiar, especially when it comes to "The Truman Show" and "King Kong", countless people can say his name immediately.

When there is really no agreement.

As for the other three Hollywood movies.

Facing the attack from Kiwifruit, they must come up with a way to deal with it, but they can't just watch as Kiwifruit occupies and digests their market.

Based on the calculation of theaters with 7 halls and 8 halls, the area is about 4000 square meters to 5000 square meters. The annual rent of theaters in the capital is 400 million yuan, and the newly built ones will be even higher;

It is not only the production cost of the film that is losing money.

Generally speaking, the next war on video sites is the copyright war, and Shichen Studio owns nearly half of the copyrights in the market.

There are also theater running costs.

"Many places seem far-fetched: the plot is far-fetched, the characters are far-fetched, and the gag dialogue is even more far-fetched and long-winded. Mark's appearance is ugly, and the heroine lacks charm. The only surviving beauty and distinctive personality are those Autobots."

This is what Zeng Jia revealed to them when they were talking with Kiwi. As for why they didn't reveal it to Penguin Film and Television, it was mainly because their appetite was too big.The appetite is too big, that is to say, they look down on Jiaxing Media, or they are a little arrogant, and they don't want to talk about it.In other words, in their view, they should take the dominant position, and Jiaxing Media is begging them to talk.

"Optimus Prime is still domineering, but he has been turned into a bit of a ****. The most pleasing thing is Bumblebee. The special effects and soundtrack are barely up to standard, but in the climax of the ending, the special effects of some scenes are a bit sloppy. Of course Michael's skills are still good. Now, the big scene of "bang bang bang" is really touching, but it is a little bit out of character by the capital. The advertisement placement of Huaguo brand is simply shameful."

and so……

They have to endure it for another four years, four years in the process.They can only try their best to minimize the loss.Don't let the kiwi side widen the gap too much.

The kiwi fruit was delivered to the door on its own initiative.

After surfing the Internet, Lu Chen also found that he was bombarded by the news, so he paid attention to the first wave of fans' reactions, and the results were similar to what Lu Chen imagined. When the premiere of "Change 5" ended, countless fans gave Quite a disappointing review.

Then, there is something to talk about.

Finally ushered in the first blockbuster, Paramount's "Transformers 5" released.

This is also the back road Lu Chen left for himself.

can't make money,

No matter how they fight, they win with hard power.

"The only motivation that keeps me going is Bumblebee, but I only recognize this Autobot from the beginning to the end. Every time I see Autobots fighting in groups, I feel confused."

"There is nothing to say about the plot, the story expression is very blunt and the camera switching is poor. I feel that the plot is pieced together by several directors, screenwriters, choreography and shooting. It is a "firework show" for 2 and a half hours... The whole story structure is very good. Huge, it refers to the entire history of Transformers and the stories among humans, but there is no 123 plots to express the tense atmosphere of the relationship. Humans' worship and fear of previous Transformers is a farce in the whole play. Those zombies In the face, a nonsensical teaser was inserted abruptly,

The copyrights of so many TV dramas and online dramas are in hand, plus various variety shows professionally produced by Shichen Studio.

The cooperation between Jiaxing Media and Kiwi is still four years away.

Rent is always the biggest investment in theaters.

Zeng Jia revealed a little bit about this hole card.

The theaters controlled by the six major theaters will not deliberately suppress his "Jurassic Park".

However, they didn't think of a better way at this time. This kind of thing can't be broken casually.Some other crooked ways are useless.

Fans of Ugly Country also had a heated discussion about this "Jurassic Park", and of course, part of it also revolved around the stunning promotional film.

Coping method.

The maintenance cost is 8 yuan per store per year.

This has led to many movie theaters making ends meet. According to the current supply situation and the box office market, a theater that can reach 1000 million yuan in box office sales every year is considered a top student. It can be said that the entire industry has always been full of challenges.

and so.

Take China as an example.

Attend some events at the same time.

In the beginning, we must give face, but if you failed to take us to eat meat after giving you face, then we will be impolite.

Water and electricity bills are a large part, and energy consumption is also 100 million to 120 million yuan. There are also start-up costs and office expenses of about 5 yuan, including insurance for the company.

The news about the release of Lu Chen's new film spread quickly. No matter what, Lu Chen is also the seventh-ranked director in the world.

This row has not been able to increase for the time being.

No matter what kind of income, it has to be supported by works, and there is no work.

When the minister said this, he just wanted to vent the frustration in his heart, and there was no other way.

Not only the quantity is large, but also the quality is high.

So Tang Lei and Liu Tianxian were directly arranged to be interviewed on behalf of the entire "Jurassic Park" crew.

No income whatsoever.

"Alright, alright."

There are discussions all over the internet.

After venting, Ding Mo, the director of Penguin Film and Television, shook his head: "Let's talk about some plans for our department..."

In addition, there are training fees, material promotion fees,
The general amortization is eight to ten years, but this also depends on the business situation. If the investment of building a theater is 2000 million yuan, the annual fixed amortization is 200 million yuan, so the cost of the theater is super high, and the box office is divided into 45%. .

So, while talking.

And the video website can solve everything as long as you open a membership, and it can even be played multiple times.

They do it themselves. With so many copyrights in hand, burning money can also burn down several other companies.

In short.

It's nothing more than a little, and I spend my own money to shoot it myself.

As long as this trump card is shown, no matter whether it is Youku or Penguin Films, they are willing to talk.

The cost of a theater can be said to be very high, which is basically the consensus in the industry.

……

The second is advertising revenue. For non-members to watch videos, they need to watch advertisements for a period of time;
The last is other income. Some professional video websites are engaged in activities such as technology outsourcing.

First point first.

That is to say, if you do not have 2000 million yuan in income, it is difficult to reach the break-even point.

The media is everywhere.

Theaters also want to make money.

"It feels like a sequel for the sake of a sequel, and the sense of patchwork is too strong."

"That magical director in the East."

During this period of time, no moths appeared.

On the west side, after Zeng Jia went to sit in the town, they immediately organized a viewing meeting about "Jurassic Park". After watching the movie, the major theaters directly gave 20.00% of the film schedule.

Even the Sixth National Congress can't resist for long.

This cost is not low.

The one who took the initiative to deliver it to your door, in simple terms, really wanted to talk.

So everyone is clear.

The investment cost of the film plus the operating cost of the theater chain lost money at the same time.

Will this movie, with an investment of up to 20 billion, create another glory? Will this year's summer film of the fairy fight usher in a good start?

However, the director of the TV series of Penguin Film and Television, no, it should be said that all the senior management of Penguin Film and Television have not realized it yet.

In fact, there are not many theaters that can achieve this level in a year, and high-income theaters are rare.

"The guy who made "The Truman Show" and "King Kong" is back with his new film, this time with dinosaurs."

"Wow, what a cool promo."

"This big dinosaur is also shocking. I didn't expect the special effects on the east side to be so strong. It looks no worse than ours. And how did he think of shooting dinosaurs? It looks so shocking."
