Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 323 Talk about collapse!

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

Accompanied by the sound of pilgrimage like a mountain whistling and a tsunami, the big screen flashed and came to Tangcheng Palace.

Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi ascended the throne, reign name Yongwei.

According to the order, Xue Rengui was appointed the governor of Mobei, and led a large army to sit in Tianque City to frighten the heroes of the Western Regions and Mobei.

The camera came to the sky above the marching army, the flags were unfurled, and the momentum was magnificent, and the [-] Great Tang Iron Army was so murderous, coming like a mighty torrent.

An unprecedented sense of excitement filled everyone's visual senses.

3 minutes.

The layout of the first 3 minutes of the movie can be described as vigorous, and the visual images are extremely strong.

Song Ge was still very excited, and Baba was smoking a cigarette with an impatient look on his face.

Fang Ziheng wanted to invite the two of them to Hengyu Media to improve the food for the employees.

Fang Ziheng showed a gratified smile, and said to Han Dong, Wang Jianlin, and Deng Wendi: "How do you feel, the movie didn't disappoint you?"

There are six parties to share the benefits, and Fang Ziheng alone has to be counted as one party's benefits.

At this time, there is no need to say more.

Just now, it was this white female assistant who proposed that the global distribution should be dominated by 21st Century Fox, with a distribution ratio of 20%.

Which part of "The Great Wall" will end up, to be honest, he really has no idea, and it's hard to make predictions.

It is impossible for the two sides to really talk about it!

"It's not just that I'm not disappointed, it's a big surprise!"

Wanda Cinemas cannot satisfy the volume of "The Great Wall", and must seek support from other cinemas.

After only being silent for a while, Deng Wendi took the initiative to break the deadlock, pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Mr. Han, Mr. Wang, Mr. Fang, my subordinates don't understand the domestic rules, so I made you laugh."

As long as "The Great Wall" is strong, it doesn't matter if you earn less.

After dinner.

The white woman shook her head slightly, and said righteously: "Before coming, we did a detailed investigation. Wanda currently does not have the ability to release a major A-level production. Only our 21st Century Fox Film Company can unimpeded. Push "The Great Wall" to the global film market!"

Fang Ziheng, Han Dong, Wang Jianlin, Deng Wendi and her assistants, Song Dai, Chen Yu, Song Ge, Vice President of Legendary Pictures.

"Director Fang, in your opinion, what is the total global box office of "The Great Wall"?"

Wang Jianlin was full of joy, and he gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely: "Fang Dong, it is the most correct decision of Wanda Films to cooperate with you in "The Great Wall"!"

Next door to Anxi State, and beyond that is the Great Food Country of Persia!

Hengyu, China Film Group, and Wanda have set the distribution ratio as early as the beginning of the project, and the three companies will issue jointly, with 10% of the distribution fee.

It is not weaker than those super blockbusters in Hollywood that make headlines and start with exciting narratives.

"30 billion soft sister coins, should be okay?"

Hearing this, Song Ge laughed out of anger, slapped the coffee table angrily and cursed: "That won't work either, Wanda must have joint distribution rights!"

"If you insist, Wanda has the right to change the investor, isn't it just 2000 million US dollars, Wanda Pictures can transfer the money to the account of 21st Century Company tomorrow.

The vice president of Legendary Pictures on the side nodded vigorously and did not express any opinions.

really.

The light rose from the imperial capital across the entire territory of the Tang Dynasty, first came to Tianque City, lit the beacon fire, then came to Anxi Protectorate, and finally fell to the westernmost Anxi Prefecture.

If it is less than 1.5 million US dollars, the issuance ratio will be increased by 3 percentage points to 18%.

At this moment.

3000 million dollars!

If you want to make "The Great Wall" a hit, you have to rely on them, 21st Century Fox.

Whether it is Wanda facing 21st Century Fox, or Hengyu and China Film Group facing Wanda, none of the three will give up the distribution rights of "The Great Wall".

Song Ge understood in seconds, and explained: "Don't worry, you two, it's a newly opened leisure club nearby. We used to take a bath to relieve fatigue. It's a serious project."

Deng Wendi's expression was sincere, and his tone of speech was casual and tepid, but the meaning in the words made people's skin twitch.

Two hours later, the movie finished playing.

"1.2 billion!"

"Well, the decision on overseas joint issuance remains unchanged, and the issuance fee is also reduced to 18%. What do you think?"

"Yeah, China Film has picked up another good project this time, and I would like to thank Director Fang and Director Wang for sharing."

Hearing everyone's support, Fang Ziheng and Song Ge bowed their hands in satisfaction and thanked them again and again.

The strange beast chased all the way, and the white man ran all the way.

Still the same sentence, with the increase of domestic movie screens, even if Wanda Cinemas ranks first in the country, it must be cautious when facing the production budget of "The Great Wall" as high as 1.5 million dollars.

Mom made a comparison.

Both Song Ge and Wang Jianlin were satisfied with the price.

Wanda Pictures alone, that is to say, the three companies will not pay a premium.

With a smile in his eyes, Dong Han stretched out his hand to make false quotations: "Ms. Deng, please, let's go to the lounge to talk about distribution and copyright?"

When they first cooperated, she personally said that as long as the movie is good and has the potential to be a big hit, 21st Century Fox Film Company only needs 15% of the joint distribution fee.

Director Han breathed a sigh of relief, showing admiration, stood up and applauded first.

I still don't believe it, if there is no butcher, I will eat pig hair! "

It is difficult abroad, at least the box office has to be released in the first week, and the final box office can be slightly guessed through the announcement lineup of 21st Century Fox.

Under the billowing red dust and smoke.

Before the movie was released, it recovered nearly 4000 US dollars in cost.

In a luxurious lounge, the atmosphere was frozen with smoke.

The problem now is that both Wanda and 21st Century Fox want to control the distribution of movies.

Oh shit!

Fang Ziheng let them go first, and he and Song Ge had to communicate with the directors of the theaters to discuss the arrangement of "The Great Wall".

She didn't make a sound, and the others were not in a hurry to express their opinions.

"It's not certain, there may be more, or it may hit the street."

But today is just the first movie viewing of "The Great Wall", and Deng Wendi has not gone back, and the pre-sale in the North American market has not yet been held.

During the global release period of "The Great Wall", it occupied a dominant position in order to seek more benefits.

In this way, Fang Ziheng stepped in and made a decision to set the distribution ratio of the film.

She gained a lot this time. Before getting in the car, she told Fang Ziheng that she was going to spend two days in the country and relax.

In the screening hall, everyone sat still, blinking and blinking at the producer's subtitles appearing on the big screen, lost in thought, recollection, and evaluation.

No more and no less!
Fang Ziheng didn't speak again, and let Song Ge argue with the two women. Anyway, Hengyu couldn't get a dime of the copyright fee for "The Great Wall".

He knew that Song Ge wanted to improve the relationship between them, and he was willing to give each other face.

Subsequently, Deng Wendi reported the overseas full copyright price of "The Great Wall".

"The movie is too good to watch and tiring. Our Dadi Cinemas will definitely support it and can give 60% of the film schedule."

Compared with Wang Jianlin, he is more happy that Chinese-language movies can produce a big-budget costume movie like "The Great Wall".

"Haha, it's too hot. I thought it was a historical narrative movie, but I didn't expect it to be a war movie about exterminating alien beasts!"

"Director Fang, Mr. Song, don't worry, Hengdian Film and Television will not be less than 65% of the film schedule."

A young white man rode out of the city with more than twenty guards on horseback, happily preparing to go out to hunt.

A total of seven men and two women, nine of them sat in a half circle on the black leather sofa, engaged in intense negotiations.

The movie is exciting enough, the plot is full, the scenes are real and vast, and the war that is shot in 3D is even more exciting to watch.

He is not fooled!

At noon, everyone had a light meal in the China Film Canteen as usual.

He even had to pay Wanda Films a sum of money to buy the movie and use it as a library for Tudou Video.

The caravans on the way and the tribute teams from the countries in the Western Regions were unlucky. They were beaten to pieces by the army of alien beasts and suffered heavy casualties.

The atmosphere in the conference room just froze.

Fang Ziheng cursed secretly, and had no choice but to speak: "Ms. Deng, I think this is the case. The distribution ratio is calculated according to the box office. If the total box office in North America does not exceed US$18 million, the [-]% you mentioned will prevail.

Following Song Ge's voice, the white woman seemed to be intimidated, frowning and not choking.

"2 billion!"

For Director Han, he can't wait to export several films a year.

"Entertainment place? Old Song, Brother Yu is a public official, don't mess around!" Fang Ziheng raised the corner of his mouth and nodded for Chen Yu.

In this regard, Wanda is the most intense and will not let go at all.

This price is only 200 million dollars lower than "Xunlong Jue".

In this way, Hengyu and China Film will definitely not agree.

As he spoke, he glanced at Fang Ziheng who was silent.

As the person in charge of Wanda Pictures, he knows very well that he must not admit defeat at this time. These words can only be said by him.

Without Chen Yu and Song Ge Dangtuo, several directors of the theater who came to test the film started discussing and bragging on their own.

Immediately, several people waved to Fang Ziheng and walked out of the screening room first.

If Hengyu Media was the master, Deng Wendi would never be so decisive, and the distribution ratio could be at least 12%.

Among the five companies, Wanda Film and Television has the main control and the largest investment, monopolizing 9000% of the film with a US$40 million share.

At this point, the plot of the movie slowly unfolds.

Pull the hair and move the whole body!

Anyone who knew that Wang Jianlin would never give up the distribution rights of "The Great Wall" was present in person.

subject of negotiation.

China Film, 21st Century Fox, and Legendary Pictures are willing to pay a premium because of Fang Ziheng's name.

Speaking of which, Wanda suffered a little this time.

A gringo is a gringo, and he's jealous when he sees fat.

woohoo
The bugle sounded.

"Okay, okay, I didn't expect that the level of special effects in our country can reach this level, and it is not inferior to Hollywood at all!"

It's still cool to be the master controller!
Except for the box office share, other profits are Hengyu's own, and others are only envious.

The camera directly enters the Great Food Kingdom, appearing in a short and rubbish ancient city.

Fortunately, in China, after the box office on the first day comes out, a basic judgment on the total box office can be made.

Deng Wendi's eyes brightened, and he held up two fingers to bargain.

But play for fun, never go too far.

Fang Ziheng's last film "Looking for the Dragon", because 21st Century Fox pre-sold it in advance, the results were very good.

boom..
The beam of light from the beacon tower flashed, and a ray of light shot out into the sky.

Everyone gathered and left. Wang Jianlin shook hands with Fang Ziheng before leaving, and said that he would cooperate more if he had the opportunity.

A trace of dissatisfaction flashed across Wang Jianlin's face. He stared at the other party and said in a deep voice, "I remember that the previous verbal agreement was 15%. Could it be that Ms. Deng wants to go back on her word?"

After several quotations, the final box office of 1.5 million US dollars shall prevail.

Now it's a good thing, she made a backhanded elbow and took advantage of her subordinates' nonsense to raise the distribution fee by 3%.

"OK, that's exactly what I mean!"

"Thank you for your support, thank you!"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Jianlin and Song Ge were instantly annoyed.

The army of the Celestial Dynasty arrived, and outside the city of Tianque, the leader of the alien beast stopped the mad beast dynasty and retreated unwillingly.

The meaning of her words is very clear, you Wanda can't do it.

"Oh, I know that place. The name of the store is Bai Jinhan. Many colleagues from China Film Group have been there. I heard it's not bad."

Fang Ziheng, Han Dong, Wang Jianlin, and Deng Wendi all smiled, as if they hadn't seen the scene of Song Ge arguing with the white woman just now.

The camera is zoomed up, and the army of one hundred thousand is like a long red and black dragon, freely galloping and flying across the world.

After the film is released, in addition to publicity, film scheduling is the most important part of publicity.

What are you looking at me for?
I can't get overseas distribution rights!

"NO, Mr. Song, this is not a joke!"

cool!

In other words, "The Great Wall" was invested by five companies on the surface, but in fact only four companies paid for it.

With the shining light, the sheepskin blueprint for the opening reappeared.

Chen Yu's eyes flickered, and he wanted to speak to ease the atmosphere. By the way, he would say something nice for Wanda and express his opinion on behalf of China Film Group.

China Film.

Furthermore, it symbolizes Wanda Pictures' initial offer to go abroad, and it will also have an extra bargaining chip in the future to cooperate with Hollywood giants.

Not to mention, the small cafeteria used by the senior executives of China Film Group to entertain guests tastes very good, and the chef's skills are no worse than that of a star-rated hotel.

The camera pans to a high beacon tower in the center of the imperial capital, with red dust billowing below, dense crowds of people, and shouts of peddlers one after another.

In the end, the white people passed through Anxi State, and followed the merchants on the Silk Road to escape to Tianque City to be safe.

Even if he wants to brag, he has to wait until the premiere of "The Great Wall" to brag to the media and the audience, that day is his moment to pretend.

She is not worried about revealing her love for movies, which will cause Wanda and Hengyu to increase their quotations.

"Those Datang troops should be participating in the performance. The laws and regulations are prohibited, and the murderous aura is inherent. Putting on the armor is completely the recovery of the ancient elite soldiers. The picture is too shocking."

If the total box office exceeds US$15 million, it will be calculated at [-]%. What do you think? "

As soon as he said that, Song Ge nodded sharply, and raised his voice: "Ms. Deng, Wanda has shown great sincerity. If you cross the river and tear down the bridge like this, who will dare to cooperate with Fox in the future?"

enough!
Fang Ziheng felt at ease, and together with Song Ge personally sent the group downstairs.

Deng Wendi was also very happy, and was picked up by Li Lianhua himself.

"1.3 billion!"

Moreover, once the overseas distribution rights of "The Great Wall" fall into the hands of 21st Century Fox, Wanda will probably take back the distribution rights in the mainland market in anger.

Chen Yu and Song Ge boarded Fang Ziheng's Maybach. Song Ge said that it was a rare meeting for the three of them and they had to find a place to have fun.

Fang Ziheng discovered Chen Yu's intentions, and with a look, he stopped him.

The three points may not seem like many, but they represent the distribution rules of the industry and illustrate the rights and interests enjoyed by blockbuster movies.

"1.7 billion!"

Back in the elevator.

Along the way, the white man is like a disaster star, wherever people go, strange beasts chase them.

On the whole, on the first day of "The Great Wall"'s release, at least 65% to 69% of the films were scheduled.

The box office in North America exceeded US$1.5 million, and Wanda and 21st Century Fox shared a 15% joint distribution ratio.

woohoo
The bugle sounded again.

Except for the united cinema chain under the Magic Shadow, which was at odds with China Film Group, which only gave 50% of the film schedule, the other 58 cinema chains all gave a minimum of [-]% of the film schedule.

Hengyu Media Group didn't pay a penny, and enjoyed a 30% share as the film producer and Fang Ziheng's director and screenwriter.

Song Ge was sitting in the co-pilot, and while showing Fang Zhongxin the way, he said with a smile: "Mr. Fang, Mr. Chen, a new high-end entertainment venue has opened nearby. Shall we go and have a look?"

More than 30 people applauded and raised excited and struggling smiles.

The way back to the city was blocked, so he could only ride a frightened horse and flee to the east with his injured body.

In the car.

However, the big canteen of Baoli Group is also good. Fang Ziheng has eaten there a few times and asked the employees, but he has not heard any comments about the food being bad, not full, or expensive.

The angry words resounded in the meeting room, which shows how much anger Song Ge is in his heart.

The young white man quickly encountered a small group of strange beasts, and more than 20 people were bitten to pieces by the strange beasts within two strokes.

According to expectations, there must be at least 1 million issuance profits, and Hengyu and China Film will make at least 3000 million soft sister coins.

He thought about it, lit a cigarette and took a puff, then smiled and looked at Deng Wendi who looked delighted: "Ms. Deng, what do you think of "The Great Wall"?"

pop
pop
Rapid and intense applause suddenly sounded.

China Film Group, 21st Century Fox, and Legendary Pictures each invested $2000 million, each at a premium of $500 million, gaining a 10% share.

"Very good. Audiences in other places are hard to say. The North American market will definitely eat Chinese films with this theme!"

"Yeah, those strange beasts are too real, they have a god-like shape, and their mouths are exactly the same as those of real wolves and tigers."

In the end, Wendi Deng won the full overseas copyright of "The Great Wall" at a cost of US$3800 million.

Otherwise, he would have to report his resignation like Wang Jianlin when he went back.

Naturally, the distribution ratio and overseas full copyright!
"The Great Wall" has a total of five investors, Wanda Film and Television, Hengyu Media, China Film Group, 21st Century Fox, and Legendary Pictures.

"For the filming of "The Great Wall", Wanda Pictures has been busy. It took more than half a year just to prepare the set, and spent 9000 million U.S. dollars in real money. Now you tell me that Wanda can't be the master of the film. Distributor, you Are you telling a joke?"

Among them, Hengyu Media accounted for 10%, and Fang Ziheng personally accounted for 20%!

You know, Hollywood giants help general film distribution, starting at least 15%, and some even soaring to 20%.

Moreover!
Song Ge, this guy, he would ask him sneakily, and he would like to say something when he saw it, so he can flatter Wang Jianlin when he gets back.

Fang Ziheng calmed down and ignored the opponent.

Director Han remembered the Hengyu's new costume project mentioned earlier, so he had to find some time to have a good chat with Fang Ziheng and finalize the project early.

"The Great Wall" is obviously a movie with the potential to be a big hit. The box office in the mainland is at least 10 billion.

There is also Lao Mouzi, the two movies are very popular, and the momentum is like a rainbow. I wonder if he still has the idea of ​​making another blockbuster costume movie.

This deal is hard to come by!

Costume, war.

Deng Wendi took the initiative to reduce the distribution ratio to 12%. Of course, there is a follow-up move to lower the price of the film's overseas full copyright, but she is more interested in Fang Ziheng himself, and she is sure that "Looking for the Dragon" will be a big hit.

In the first scroll of the screen, an aerial view of Chang'an City, the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, appeared.

Deng Wendi blurted out, saying very definitely.

Especially in a few big battles, the shocking scenes of large armies attacking across thousands of miles and beheading beasts like killing chickens made their scalps tingle.

"Fang Dong, bull!"

It's a pity that there is only one Fang Ziheng. Even if he is exhausted, he can only make one film a year at most, depending on whether he is willing or not.

A troop of cavalry appeared.

"1.8 billion!"

"Fang Dong, Xingmei can give 70% of the film schedule, which is only 10% less than Wanda, which is interesting enough."

Oh shit!

Han Dongle let out a chuckle, smiled openly, and took out the cigarettes for everyone.

Think about this.

The panorama is enhanced by special effects, using a one-to-one miniature of Chang'an City, the original imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, and using special effects modeling to enlarge the scale to present the original appearance.

This guy has long been bought by Wanda, and he is willing to be a pawn of Wanda Films and Television's entry into Legendary Films.

If Fang Ziheng's guess is correct, Deng Wendi is just taking the opportunity to be reserved, paving the way for the next joint release ratio and copyright fee of "The Great Wall".

Song Ge blushed and spoke fiercely, staring at Deng Wendi and her white female assistant who came up with bad ideas.

It means that "The Great Wall" can be exported overseas again, allowing audiences around the world to see the elegance of Huaguo.

She has other ways to recover more benefits from other channels.

"Ms. Deng."

Following Chen Yu's voice, the men laughed joyfully in the car,

In less than 10 minutes, the destination was reached.

The black Maybach turned into a side road and stopped in front of a resplendent store.

Platinum Han Leisure Club!
