Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 425 Showdown with "Change 4"

"Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, dogs run hundreds of miles to eat shit!"

"The choice of movie schedule is entirely voluntary, and the quality of the movie is left to the market. Director Fan, what do you think?"

The calm voice resounded in the room, and also caused endless ripples in everyone's hearts.

Fang Ziheng did not give an inch to Fan Luyuan!
The unequivocal attitude is not only hard steel, but also refute Zhang Hongsen's opening remarks just now.

There are only so many good schedules, and it is impossible to let everyone give you away just because you are a state-owned enterprise and you are superior.

Unless, the movie produced by China Film is the main theme!

"hehe..!"

Fan Luyuan was stunned, and smiled angrily: "Fang Dong is so confident, isn't he afraid of the horse's heel?"

"Of course I have confidence. My confidence comes from my sincerity to the film and from Hengyu Media's unique production team.

The purpose of Hengyu has always been to make outstanding contributions to Chinese-language films, creating one after another high-quality content, which is fundamentally different from the shoddy works produced by some companies. "

Fang Ziheng spoke loudly, with a serious tone and a firm expression, not giving the other party any chance to take advantage of the loopholes.

The meaning of what he said was very clear, high-quality movies are good movies, and the hot schedule should be occupied by good movies.

You Alibaba Pictures are really capable, so you can take out blockbuster movies to compete in the ring, otherwise you can stay cool!
"Okay, okay, let's wait and see!"

Fan Luyuan snorted softly, put down a harsh word, and then sat there indifferently.

He made up his mind that this year's summer vacation, Ali must make Hengyu Media stumble, otherwise it will not show Ali's strength!
At this time, Han Dong, who had not spoken all the time, took off his glasses, rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Okay, stop arguing."

As soon as he said it, the effect was extraordinary.

Yu Dong immediately restrained his direct gaze at Fan Luyuan, sat down, took out a cigarette and lit it up.

Fang Ziheng, Wang Zhongjun, and Wang Changtian leaned back slightly, showing a slight smile, and the original aggressive posture disappeared instantly.

Song Ge, Chen Wu, Gong Yu, Jia Yueting, Fu Meicheng, and Fu Ruoqing also breathed a sigh of relief.

Mommy, it looks good when you fight!

Director Han put his hands on the table in the conference room, tapped his knuckles on the table, looked around, and said in a concentrated voice: "The companies under your umbrella are either listed or will be listed soon. I understand everyone's thoughts. A good schedule can give you The film is a great blessing, the box office is high, and the company's market value is also high!"

"However, what Director Zhang said just now is correct. In order to better utilize the strength of the first movie, it is necessary to discuss the schedule. At least it can avoid the two tigers fighting each other!"

As he said that, Han Dong gave Fang Ziheng a stern look, which was inexplicable.

That means it's like saying: It's almost done, restrain your edge, and don't always bully novices.

Fang Ziheng: "."

Fan Luyuan is not a newcomer to film, he is a serious nouveau riche, a vicious sub-batch!
Of course!
Director Han stated that he must save face!
Today's meeting was originally to discuss the movie schedule, no matter what, the superficial harmony must be maintained!
"Come on, let's talk about the summer schedule, what movies do you all have released this year!"

Director Han spoke out again, asking everyone to report the movie that will be released first.

As soon as the words fell, Yu Dong laughed.

The guy tapped the table lightly, and said: "Everyone, this year's summer film will be introduced by Bona. It will be produced by Bona Film Group, and written and directed by Hong Kong directors Mak Chiu-fai and Zhuang Wenqiang.

A crime drama film starring Liu Qingyun, Gu Tianle, Wu Yanzu, Zhou Gongzi, Ye Xuan, Huang Lei, Chen Jiajun and other actors, "Eavesdropping 3" will be released on May 5. "

After finishing speaking, Yu Dong looked at Fan Luyuan deliberately, and asked with a playful look in his eyes: "Director Fan, this schedule shouldn't be any good, right?"

Every year, the summer vacation starts in mid-June, June is the first stage, July is the most popular, and August is the second half.

"Eavesdropping 3" was released on May 5, and it will occupy at most one month in June. I really can't say how good this schedule is.

Yu Dong made it clear that he wanted to slap Fan Luyuan in the face, and told the other party with the facts how ridiculous his previous sarcasm was.

Then only Fang Ziheng knew that "Eavesdropping 3" really got a good schedule.

According to the schedule of imported films disclosed by China Film Group a few days ago, only one Hollywood film can be called available in May.

"X-Men: Days of Future Past", which was released on May 5, had a box office trend similar to that of "The Overheard".

Entering June, only "Godzilla", which was released on June 6, was relatively good.

Originally, "Edge of Tomorrow" and "The Breakup Master" were released in June, but Fang Ziheng released the two films ahead of schedule, which made "Eavesdropping" two less rivals.

Unless, China Film arranges the release of "Transformers 4" in advance!
This is almost impossible. Based on the awesomeness of "Transformers 3", China Film will definitely want to release the fourth part in July, and make a big hit at the box office.

Sure enough, when Fang Ziheng was thinking secretly.

Zhang Hongsen, who was sitting upright in front, moved his body and coughed lightly to gather everyone's attention.

"Yu Dong chose a good schedule for this schedule. To tell you the truth, this year's "Transformers 4" is coming. After discussing with Han Dong, I plan to release the movie on June 6. Everyone knows the strength of this movie, with a box office of 27 billion. end!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Hongsen paused for a moment, looked at the bosses and persons in charge of the film and television company, and said with a smile: "China Film is frank and honest, I just hope that the movie you are showing here will not be like "Transformers 4". , of course, if someone really wants to give it a try, Lao Zhang, I am looking forward to it!"

What the hell!

Bringing foreign films to threaten domestic films, you really have Zhang!
In the conference room, a group of people's eyelids rolled up when they heard it, and they all secretly scolded Zhang Hongsen for pulling the tiger's skin to pull the banner!
I don't know, I thought "Transformers 4" was controlled by China Film Investment!

Of course they do!
Everyone refused to accept it, but they dared not take any action.

Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian, Song Ge and others frowned and remained silent.

They are well aware of the strength of the "Transformers" series, which has already proven to be a hit in the mainland market.

The total box office of the third part is 10.7 billion, and the fourth part is at least [-] billion!

Zhang Hongsen is old and cunning, he chose the date of June 6th, which is equivalent to eating the whole month of July!
With the power of "Transformers 4", few directors of Chinese-language movies dare to confront it head-on!
Thinking of this, everyone's hearts moved, and they all looked at Fang Ziheng again.

Director Fang!

They asked for the best time for summer vacation, what do you think?
I sit and watch!
Faced with everyone's stares, Fang Ziheng was speechless, and he didn't even vent his anger!

It was a good domestic protection month, but a huge hole was torn open by Zhang Hongsen.

"Transformers 4" has more than [-] billion box office!

In the last life, the film grossed 18.2 billion in the mainland market in one fell swoop, not only trampled domestic films under its feet, but also regained the top spot in Chinese film history!
In this life, although "囧囧 in Hong Kong" and "Tang Detective 2" broke the 18 billion mark first, so what, the two films have already been released.

Now we are talking about the summer file. If you want to guard this year's summer file, you must bring out a movie that can compete with "Transformers"!
Fuck it!

Fang Ziheng cursed secretly, frowned, and quickly thought about what to do.

Give Zhang Hongsen a face and let him lead a blockbuster Hollywood movie?
Still, just like cutting "Havoc in Heaven" during the Spring Festival, "Transformers 4" was also chopped!
Difficult, difficult!

"What, to see what Fang Dong means, do you want the movie produced by Hengyu to be released on the same schedule as "Transformers 4"?"

Just when Fang Ziheng was in a dilemma, Jia Yueting, who was not at ease, chuckled and cast a look of watching the play.

Everyone also showed anticipation, staring closely at Fang Ziheng, who was sinking in the face, wanting to see how he would make a decision.

They had no doubt that Fang Ziheng held a work that could compete head-on with "Transformers 4".

I heard that more than half of the filming of "I'm Not the God of Medicine" has been completed!
On the left side of the conference room table, Kang Xun frowned, opened his mouth, and stopped Fang Ziheng's words.

In any case, "Transformers 4" is not "Havoc in Heaven", it is a Hollywood movie through and through.

When China Film Group imports Hollywood movies and releases them, the accounting ratio is also calculated based on the net box office.

After deducting 5% of the film fund and 3.3% of taxes, China Film Group can share 17% of the net box office revenue of Mainland China Film Group, and 48% for theater chains and theater palaces.

Hollywood producers can share 35% of the bill.

For imported films released in the mainland, the cost of publicity and distribution has always been borne by the distributor, that is, China Film.

This has also led to the fact that as long as it is a movie imported by China Film, if it is a hit, it will definitely release it with all its strength.

When films were introduced back then, the purpose was to revitalize the half-dead film market with imported films, and then use these proceeds to support the development of domestic films.

Now!
Well, this is the same purpose now, and it has never changed!
For many domestic films invested by China Film Group, a large part of the source of funds comes from the share income of imported films.

In Kang Yu's opinion, it would be better for Fang Ziheng to make a movie that would crush "Transformers 4".

At the very least, he was not the only one who failed on China Film Group!

Lao Zhang also counts.

Thinking about it, Kang Xun looked at Zhang Hongsen who was opposite him!

Hey, Zhang, what's wrong with you, why is your face so ugly!

On the front right, Zhang Hongsen had a gloomy face, lowered his head slightly, and was suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart.

Fang Ziheng's silence, in his opinion, is that he doesn't know how to flatter him!
I have already been frank and informed everyone about the schedule of "Transformers 4", and you are still stubborn.

How to drop!
You really want to do another hand shadow!

Everyone's eyes were on Fang Ziheng at this moment, but Zhang Hongsen's gloomy expression was not noticed.

Including Chairman Han, everyone in the conference room slowed down their breathing, waiting quietly for Fang Ziheng to express his opinion.

July is the best two or three movie schedules in the whole year!
Fang Ziheng, are you really willing to give up?
a while.

Fang Ziheng's brows stretched out, facing everyone's eyes, he smiled leisurely: "What's the matter with you, I just thought about Hengyu Interactive Entertainment's listing in April, which movie can drive the stock price more."

call.
There was a series of panting voices in the meeting.

Especially Zhang Hongsen's gloomy face suddenly changed, showing a smile that should be so.

OK!

It's better to be harmonious, and we all discussed to set the schedule.

He seemed to lower his eyes just now, but he saw everyone's expressions in his eyes.

Kang Xun's slight movement was also caught in his eyes.

hum!

Old Kang, old Kang, you still want me to follow in your footsteps, you want to fart!

The second in command of China Film Group relaxed completely, picked up the cigarette on the table, and lighted the second cigarette leisurely.

Fan Luyuan and Jia Yueting showed disdain, squinting at Fang Ziheng.

Here it is!

Aren't you arrogant?

This is a shame, if you have the ability to fight "Transformers 4"!

As if he heard the voices of the two of them, after Fang Ziheng laughed, his expression calmed down again.

He stared at the three leaders in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Han, Mr. Kang, Mr. Zhang, July is the protection month for domestic films, and it is one of the best schedules for our mainland films. We really shouldn't let a Hollywood film wanton .”

"Oh, what's Dong Fang's idea?" Han Dong's deep eyes flashed, and he asked softly.

Kang Yun and Zhang Hongsen also had their eyes flashing, and they looked over quickly.

Facing the probing gazes of the three people above, especially Zhang Hongsen's surprised gaze, Fang Ziheng said decisively: "My film "I'm Not the God of Medicine" will be finished at the end of May, and I plan to premiere it in the summer?"

"What time?" Han Dong frowned and asked first.

"November 7!"

Fang Ziheng told the two identical numbers word by word.

boom..
Two simple and identical numbers, like a heavy bomb, a heavy hammer, hammered hard into everyone's hearts.

Everyone stared wide-eyed, staring at that outstanding figure.

He really dares!
Really want to challenge "Transformers 4" head-on, and compete with this movie that is destined to be a blockbuster!
No one thought that Fang Ziheng postponed the schedule by ten days because he was afraid of "Transformers 4", and even thought that he was doing Zhang Hongsen and Zhongying face.

After all, "Tang Detective 2" and "Havoc in Heaven" were released at the same time. Although "Tang Detective 2" is a sequel, it is not directed by Fang Ziheng himself.

"I'm Not the God of Medicine" was directed by Fang Ziheng himself. His last film with the main theme, "The Founding of an Army" sold for 15 billion.

The costume blockbuster "The Great Wall", which was not directed by the upper part, sold 17 billion in the mainland and more than 4 million US dollars worldwide.

Awesome, Lao Fang!

At this moment, it doesn't matter if it is Wang Zhongjun, Yu Dong, Wang Changtian, and Song Ge.

It was still Chen Wu, Gong Yu, and Fu Meicheng who were newcomers to the film industry, all of whom cast admiring gazes on Fang Ziheng.

Throughout the entire Chinese-language film industry, only Fang Ziheng has the courage and strength to try the edge of the Hollywood blockbuster "Transformers 4".

Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian, and Song Ge even secretly decided to move their own movies farther away, and resolutely not to get involved with these two evil tigers.

Even Fan Luyuan and Jia Yueting, even though they wished that "I'm Not the God of Medicine" hit the street and were rubbed on the ground by "Transformers 4", they had to admire Fang Ziheng's courage and pride.

Knowing the strength of the opponent, he still goes against the wind.

Fan Luyuan stared at Fang Ziheng, and couldn't help admiring this opponent in his heart, as if seeing himself back then.

In those years, just like Fang Ziheng today, he faced all kinds of difficulties in the bank and led Alipay to open up the situation.

Admiration is nothing but admiration, Fan Luyuan is also firm in his mind to engage in Hengyu.

"Transformers 4" is an excellent opportunity.

"Ten days, ten days!"

Han Dong whispered softly, muttering and knocking on the table with his hands.

Soon, he looked at Zhang Hongsen and asked, "Old Zhang, what do you think?"

What this means is that you are the leader of "Transformers 4". What is your opinion on the ten-day delay in the release of "I'm Not the God of Medicine".

Zhang Hongsen took a deep breath of his cigarette, thought for a while, nodded and said, "I think it's okay. Hollywood movies have a habit of breaking out in the first week, diving in half in the second week, and diving in half again in the third week!"

"Ten days is enough time for "Transformers 4" to get a good box office. Director Fang, I, Zhang, want to thank you!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Hongsen smiled slightly at Fang Ziheng, very satisfied with the face given by the other party.

Previously, he and his subordinates had seriously predicted "Transformers 4", and they all believed that the total box office of the film would be between 12 billion and 13 billion, and 14 billion would be the sky-high.

And Fang Ziheng's movies, after "Edge of Tomorrow", have the lowest box office of 14 billion.

The other party's action really gave Lao Zhang a big face, and this favor must be accepted.

After receiving the goodwill from Zhang Hongsen, Fang Ziheng cupped his hands and continued: "Because of the listing of Hengyu Interactive Entertainment, I still have two movies to be released in the summer.

Directed by Su Lun, starring Zheng Kai, Song Yi, Yang Mi, and Li Qin, "Youth Campus 2" will be released on June 6 starting from the summer vacation.

Produced by Wen Muye and directed by Guo Jinming, "Little Times 3" will be released on July 7. "

After setting the schedule for "I'm Not the God of Medicine", Fang Ziheng then announced the release time of the two films.

Show the strength of Hengyu Media!
