Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 297 Third Quarter Earnings
Theater station.

In Liu Qianqian's room.

She took off her costume, and while taking out her underwear from the suitcase to take a bath, she said to Fang Ziheng, "How many days can you stay this time, so I can ask Director Hao for leave."

"Two days, at most three days, on the 24th I have to fly to Daxinganling to film the last scene of "The Great Wall."

Fang Ziheng answered casually, walked forward and reached out to rummage through the suitcase, found a small piece of black lace cloth, and said with a smirk, "Sissy, I'll wear this later."

Liu Qianqian snatched the lace piece, gave him a charming look, and then put another set of pure white underwear back into the suitcase.

This set of black lace underwear was bought by Fang Ziheng online for her on Double Eleven last year.

After buying it, she didn't wear it a few times, feeling too shy.

"I'm taking a shower first, you go and order something to eat."

"OK, I'll ask the front desk to deliver what I want to eat."

Fang Ziheng watched her walk into the bathroom, went to the bedside, picked up the landline and dialed the number at the hotel reception.

two hours later.

Fang Ziheng and Liu Qianqian put on couple casual suits, walked out of the hotel wearing sunglasses and masks, and started shopping at night.

The two fought twice just now, and the young lady was defeated for the first time.

The second time she went all out, fighting Fang Ziheng back and forth, the battlefield spread all over the suite.

On a snack street in Hengdian.

Liu Qianqian took Fang Ziheng's arm, pointed to the restaurant on the street, and said domineeringly: "What do you want to eat, I'll treat you today!"

"Okay, I'll be the Ruanfan King today."

Fang Ziheng took a look, and chose a signature hot pot restaurant to go.

After dinner.

The two strolled around for a while, bought some snacks and snacks, and returned to the hotel after nine o'clock with big bags.

This time the two did not rush to fight, but used their laptop to find a movie, and watched it while chatting on the bed.

During the period, Liu Qianqian also called Zeng Li and transferred the safety knowledge of pregnant women she had found online.

Seriously speaking, the young lady has a bit of a taste for Zeng Li's pregnancy, but she is kind-hearted by nature, and she has been constantly building her own heart to convince herself to accept all this.

During this period of time, she kept on filming and couldn't go back to the Imperial Capital to visit Zeng Li often, but she took the initiative to make a phone call every five days and asked about Zeng Li and the baby in her belly.

She also secretly prepared a lot of things for babies without telling Mother Liu and her little assistant.

The young lady's broad-mindedness was exchanged for Fang Ziheng's double love, and the relationship between the two was not affected at all.

Fang Ziheng turned on the computer and put it on the outside, opened his arms and hugged the young lady into his arms, and asked softly: "Qiqian, can we have a baby too?"

"Ah, it's too early."

Liu Qianqian was shocked and instinctively refused.

She buried her head in Fang Ziheng's arms, acted like a baby, and said pitifully, "Although I like babies, I want to work hard for a few more years."

"Honey, I'm only 25 years old this year, and I'm having a baby at 30, okay?"

"Is it too late at 30? Experts say that a woman's physique will decline after the age of 27. The older you are, the more dangerous it is to have a baby."

Fang Ziheng was as gentle as water, trying to convince the young lady.

"Is it okay to be 27 years old?"

"No, 27 is only two years old."

The two had an ambiguous and interesting discussion on the issue of having a baby.

While chatting, Fang Ziheng turned off the computer and dragged the young lady into bed.

No matter how much you say, it is better to experiment first!
Stayed in Hengdian for three days.

Amid Liu Qianqian's reluctance, Fang Ziheng boarded the plane back to the imperial capital.

The filming of "Four Famous Catchers 2" is about to be completed, and the post-production process is underway, and the young lady can finally take a good rest for a while.

After returning to the imperial capital, Fang Ziheng rested for half a day, and then held the third quarter executive meeting.

Hengyu Media Group has already made preparations in advance. The deputy directors, directors, major wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the bosses of the holding company are all here.

August 8rd, nine o'clock in the morning.

Fang Ziheng, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, walked into the No. [-] conference room with his head held high.

"Hello, Chairman!"

"Hello Fang Dong!"

As soon as I entered the door, I heard dozens of voices saying hello.

Concubine Lin, Andy, Mo Xiangwan, Lin Wei, and Lao Mouzi lined up on both sides of the conference table, leading a group of executives to stand up and welcome.

"Everyone has worked hard, sit down."

Fang Ziheng waved his hand and sat down on the main seat in the middle.

"In the recent period, the Group's various businesses have made great progress, so thank you all."

As usual, he first affirmed everyone's recent work, then smiled lightly, and nodded towards Mo Xiangwan.

Mo Xiangwan, as the secretary of the board of directors, presided over today's meeting.

She opened the meeting agenda in front of her, and took the lead in naming Liu Liang, the deputy director of the film business department.

Wen Muye was not here, and the film business department respected Liu Liang.

Liu Liang is Fang Ziheng's senior brother and one of the assistant directors of "Tang Detective 1". Currently, he has put down his filming work and devoted himself to the work of the business department.

"Director Fang, all the leaders, let me first report the status of the company's films released from June to now."

"The total box office of "The Hypnotist" is 5.8 million, after deducting film funds and taxes, the net box office is 5.32 million.

The film is exclusively distributed by the company, and according to the distribution ratio of 10%, 5320 million distribution profits can be recovered.

For the remaining 4.488 million, the movie theater and the theater chain management company will share 53% of the account, give us 4 percentage points of the profit, and the company can share 2.11 million at the box office!
Of the 2.11 million, the 3000 million publicity costs invested by the company will be deducted first, and then 20% of the director and investment dividends will be paid to Xu Zheng Studio, which is a total of 3620 million soft sister coins.

The company's static box office revenue is 8180 million!
In addition, the film's feature advertisements and various sponsorships totaled 5600 million, plus 5320 million distribution profits, the total revenue was 1.91 million.

After erasing the production cost of 3500 million, "Master of Hypnotism" earned a net profit of 1.56 million for the company. "

With a high voice, Liu Liang told the details of "The Master of Hypnotism" one by one with a bit of joy.

clap clap..
There was bursts of applause in the conference room.

The executives from all walks of life are very eye-catching, and only applause can express everyone's mood at this moment.

A film with a production cost of 3500 million, an investment of 3000 million in publicity and distribution, and a total box office of 5.8 million, brought a net profit of 1.56 million to the company, which deserves any praise.

Fang Ziheng is also very satisfied with the operation of the "Master of Hypnotism" project. In the last life, the original film had a total production cost of only 1000 million yuan and grossed 2.74 million yuan at the box office.

In this life, the movie script has been refined by him, the investment has been increased, and the total box office has also doubled.

But this time he didn't ask the financial department to prepare a check. In "Master of Hypnotism", apart from Xu Zheng's director's share, his studio also invested a part, accounting for 20% of the total proceeds.

This treatment is interesting enough!

After the applause, Liu Liang took a sip of water and continued to report the situation of "Predecessor Raiders" to everyone.

""Predecessor Raiders" has just been drawn, and our department has made a statement of expenditure and income. It is expected to get the box office distribution in mid-September."

"The total box office is 3.8 million, after deducting film funds and taxes, the net box office is 3.485 million soft sister coins!

The distributor of the film is the newly established Big Dipper Distribution Company, with a distribution ratio of 10% and a distribution profit of 3485 million.

The company holds 48% of the shares in Big Dipper, and can obtain 1659 million issuance profits.

Movie theaters and theater chain management companies share 54% of the accounts, giving the company 3 100% points of profit.

After deducting the income from cinemas, theater chains, and 3000 million publicity expenses, the producer has 1.13 million box office revenue left.

Among them, the company occupies 60% of the film share, Guangxian Media 20%, Tengxun and Ali 10% each.

The company's net box office receipts for "Predecessor Raiders" were 6780 million.

The feature film and various sponsorships totaled 6800 million, which was 1200 million more than "Master of Hypnotism".

In addition, Fang Dong sold the investment share of "Predecessor Raiders" at a premium of 1 point and 200 million, and 40% was 8000 million soft sister coins.

To sum up, the total revenue of the film is 2.33 million soft sister coins.

Erasing 4000 million production costs, "Predecessor Raiders" created a total of 1.93 million net profits for the company! "

Liu Liang talked eloquently, the more he talked, the happier he became.

pop
The applause sounded again, and everyone looked at Fang Ziheng, admiring the premium operation he had done.

1 point, a premium of 200 million soft sister coins!

Fantastic coquettish operation~!

Guangxian, Tengxun, and Ali, the three companies spent 8000 million real money, which is enough to produce two "Predecessor Raiders".

Fang Ziheng smiled lightly, but he didn't appear too happy.

As far as he knows, after the release of "Predecessor Raiders", Guangliang saw the right time and worked hard to help out.

Relying on the enthusiasm of film investors, Guangliang's stock price has risen by more than 20 billion in just one month, which is really profitable.

That is to say, the two film companies, Tengxun and Ali, have not been listed, otherwise "Predecessor Raiders" will be fired even more fiercely, and the cake created will be even bigger.

However, Hengyu did not lose money. In addition to the 2.33 million net profit mentioned by Liu Liang, it also successfully stimulated the four major theaters to establish the Big Dipper distribution company.

With this company, Hengyu's films will be released in the future, not to mention the green light all the way, at least they can get more and higher film schedules.

After Liu Liang finished his report, he returned to his seat.

Fang Ziheng knocked on the table and said to Lin Ruohua, director of the finance department: "As before, prepare a check for 880 million for Su Lun, and buy her a car worth 80 to 100 million."

"Understood, I'll deal with it immediately after the film is divided."

Lin Ruohua's eyes flashed, and she pursed her lips in response.

Gee
Another check, another car, it made me want to go back and make movies.

Liu Liang, who had just sat down, sighed in his heart, feeling inexplicably envious of Su Lun, Wen Muye, and Hao Yi, the front-line directors.

It's not that he hasn't thought about going back to his old job, but he knows that he's not good enough to make TV dramas, but if he really wants to direct a movie, he will definitely not be able to do it well.

The other executives are no strangers to it. Every time the company holds a quarterly meeting, as long as there is a movie in place, Fang Ziheng will definitely write a check in front of everyone to reward the director who directed the movie.

This undisguised approach has won the understanding and support of the executives, and it also makes everyone feel envious and jealous every time.

I wish I could become the signed director of Hengyu Media!
Then, under Mo Xiangwan's reminder, Lin Wei, vice president of the company and director of the distribution department, slowly got up and reported the achievements of the distribution department during this period.

"Fang Dong, everyone."

"The distribution department is doing very well recently, and has won the distribution rights of the Hong Kong Island film "Cold War" and "Journey to the West"!"

"According to our agreement with Anle Film and Television, when the film is released, the company will invest 2500 million publicity funds.

If the total box office of "Cold War" in the mainland exceeds 2 million, the company can get 10% of the distribution profit, and the total box office of 3 million can get 12% of the distribution profit! "

"Wait a minute, if the total box office of "Chill" exceeds 4 million, or even [-] million, how did you discuss it with Anle Film and Television?"

Fang Ziheng interrupted Lin Wei's report with a wave of his hand, frowning and asked a question he didn't expect.

Lin Wei was taken aback for a moment, and looked over in confusion.

Four hundred million!

Five hundred million!

Can't!
"Cold War" is not a movie controlled by our company, so how could it have such a big box office potential.

Jiang Zhiqiang from Anle Film and Television said that it would be good if the total box office exceeded 3 million.

After a comprehensive evaluation, Hengyu's distribution department believes that 3 million box office is reasonable.

Lin Wei thought for two seconds, then shook his head and said, "Director Fang, the follow-up ratio has not been discussed. If necessary, the distribution department can ask Anle Film and Television to sign a new contract."

"Sign a new copy, tell Jiang Zhiqiang that if the total box office of "Chill" exceeds 4 million, the distribution fee ratio will be 14%, 16% if the total box office exceeds 18 million, and [-]% if the total box office exceeds [-] million!"

Without even thinking about it, Fang Ziheng revealed the details of the new distribution contract.

His words made everyone in the conference room look bright.

"Chill"!
It's famous!
Lin Wei also reacted, nodded repeatedly, and planned to call Jiang Zhiqiang after the meeting.

No longer believing in the box office potential of "Cold War", he also knew how accurate Fang Ziheng's vision was.

The undefeated myth that never misses.

After the distribution department, Li Xiaoshu from the TV drama business department reported.

This year, Hengyu Media Group has managed a total of ten TV dramas, three of which have already started broadcasting.

Five films will be released one after another in the four months of 9/10/11/12, and only two will be moved to next year due to time constraints.

"The four dramas "The Pretender", "The Spy War", "The Edge of the City", and "Let's Get Married" all achieved good ratings."

"Among them, "The Pretender" sold 6000 million yuan in the first round and 4000 million yuan in the second round. At present, eight or nine satellite TVs have come to discuss the right to broadcast the third round. The total profit is expected to reach 1.2 million soft sister coins!"

Holding a document in her hand, Li Xiaoshu reported the proceeds of several TV dramas in a calm tone.

Fang Ziheng usually doesn't get involved in the company's TV series.

The number one male candidate for "The Pretender", went around and still found Hu Ge to play him.

It's not that Hengyu doesn't have any actors to stand up to him. Luo Jin, Zheng Kai, and Zhang Yi are all good candidates.

It's just that all three of them are turning to movie cafes. Even the male second and third male in movies are more attractive than the first male in TV dramas.

The three now only choose one TV series of the company to star in a year.

Luo Jin chose "Let's Get Married", and the lead actress is Jiang Shuying.

Zheng Kai starred in "The Spy War: The Shocking War", and the female lead is Li Qin.

Zhang Yi took a fancy to "Rebirth", and the female lead was Tang Yixin.

Guo Jingfei, Chen He, and Reba were selected by the crew of "Edge of the City", and Chen He also has his own "Love Apartment".

The remaining "Legend of Lu Zhen" and "A Thousand Bone Flowers" are major female lead dramas, and the company strongly favors the works of Zhao Liying and Nazha.

On the whole, all the artists under Hengyu have been arranged in place. After one year, each artist has at least one TV series as the male and female lead and one movie supporting role.

Now Hengyu develops [-] dramas a year, and the dramas have many appointments and few artists, so they must not find outsiders to act in them.

No, Chang Jihong, the vice president of Hengyu Artist Management Company, raised his hand, wanting to expand the artist management team.

"Fang Dong, leaders."

"Currently the company still has too few artists. Every year, at least one-third of the company's projects have to be cast from outsiders. I propose to further expand the artist team to enrich the company's needs for various roles in movies and TV dramas."

Chang Jihong understands the rules of the workplace very well, and she speaks steadily, using reasons that enrich the needs of the company's role.

Her speech was recognized by the executives including Concubine Lin and Andy.

Huang Huiwen, the vice president of Tudou Video, also voiced his support, saying that Tudou will establish Tudou Films next year to produce many self-made online TV dramas, which will require many young actors with online acting skills.

The company can recruit people from the three major colleges and universities in advance, and train for a few months first, and then they can be promoted next year.

Only Fang Ziheng didn't see it that way.

He lightly knocked down the table, signaling Chang Jihong and Huang Huiwen to stay calm, and said with a faint smile, "You all have been blinded by the popularity of the entertainment industry this year."

"Management of artists has always been expensive and not expensive. My requirement for the management department has never been that people make more money, but that every artist is reliable and easy to use, and there are no scandals or gossips!"

"The image of an artist is a golden signboard, and every artist needs a long-lasting positive image to survive.

Once the company's characters have more monks and less meat, the artist's mind will soon be ups and downs, and the intrigues and brains will be played out!
The lessons learned by Huayi Brothers are still vivid in our minds, we must guard against them! "

As he spoke, Fang Ziheng's tone gradually became serious, and he flatly rejected Chang Jihong and Huang Huiwen's proposal to expand the artist team.

　There is a question that needs to be said. The distribution ratio mentioned by Xiaodao before is calculated after the producer divides the accounts.

　　Xiaodao looked for the data again today, and it should be calculated after deducting film funds and taxes.

　　For example, for a box office of 833 million, after deducting the film fund and tax of [-] million, the remaining net box office must first calculate the distribution fee ratio, and then share the account with the theaters.

　　In addition, the theater chain accounts are divided into movie theaters and theater chain management companies. Movie theaters across the country get 50%, theater companies get 7%, and finally the film producers.
