It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?
Chapter 498: Taking advantage of the popularity? The "wind" of "Cold War" is blo
Chapter 498: Taking advantage of the popularity? The "wind" of "Cold War" is blowing all over Hong Kong, the new Hong Kong film plan, the dangers of desperate plans!
As the mediation ended, the tone above was completely set.
"The minimum ticket price in all theaters across the country has increased by five yuan. The box office of "The Thirteen Beauties" will be divided at 5% if it is less than 45 million, and 5% will be divided if it exceeds 41 million."
The media announced the news immediately.
For a time, the public opinion on the Internet not only did not stop because of the successful mediation, but became more and more turbulent!
On the theater side, some theaters that accepted this plan immediately began to contact New Picture to request copy disks and adjust the film schedule.
Those theater chains that did not agree with this plan, led by Yu Dong, once again started a new round of competition with Zhang Weiping.
The two sides still refuse to give in to each other, and seem to be determined to fight!
Now that the matter has come to this, Zhang Weiping doesn't care at all about those theaters that still hold objections, because his goal has been achieved.
And he doesn’t think those theater chains will continue to be tough.
Don’t make any money?
Whether it will be a profit or a loss in the end is yet to be determined.
Although Zhang Weiping increased the box office split and the lowest ticket price as he wished, "The Thirteen Hairpins" also lost part of its theater schedule.
"Okay, take advantage of the heat and implement this matter as soon as possible. Once the coffin is finalized, everything will fall into place."
As for the extra profits earned by New Picture through "The Thirteen Hairpins", all of them were passed on to the audience by the theaters.
~
Su Guohai sighed secretly in his heart while reporting on the recent situation.
There are constant discussions on the Internet, and the producers and theaters will jump out and shout out a few words from time to time, pointing the finger at the new picture.
Because he is a traitor, most of the media are on the opposite side of him.
First of all, in terms of online public opinion, New Picture is completely at a disadvantage.
"I just went online to check the pre-sale ticket price, and the theater here is actually priced at 89. Damn it, even for "Gravity" in October, the 10D ticket price is only more than 2."
It feels really good to feel that others are taking the heat and you are enjoying the results!
The theater chain will definitely not give up. Since they have suffered a loss in terms of profits, they must make up for it in terms of face.
Although this will cause the theater chain to lose some profits, it will not be huge. After all, there is more than just this movie in the Lunar New Year period.
Yu Dong is also a ruthless person!
In addition to taking the lead in boycotting Zhang Weiping and the new picture, he also launched a "desperate plan!"
Isn't this stupid?
"In order to satisfy his own selfish interests, Zhang Weiying actually betrayed the producer alliance and abandoned the entire industry. He has no moral bottom line!"
~
After temporarily expelling the theaters from his "targets", he turned his attention to the producers.
"It is reported that after the mediation that day, Chengtian CEO Wu Kebo scolded Zhang Weiping on the spot for being extremely shameless!"
"What's going on with Zhang Yimou? Why do you have to keep cooperating with this new picture? Can't you find other companies? I think Feiyue Film and Television is very good..."
Theaters may make less money, but they will never lose money on screenings!
The four words "Sorry" will never appear in the dictionary of Feiyue Film and Television.
Although this wave of backstabbing satisfied his selfish interests, it also caused him a lot of trouble.
"I had some rough contact with the theater chain, and they agreed to the step-by-step account sharing method. A rough outline will be discussed soon..."
As a result, the full price range of "Dragon Flying Swords" is set at 50-70.
For a moment, the new picture and Zhang Weiping’s Weibo were full of curses!
"Are you crazy about trying to make money? A ticket price of 85 yuan? Damn it! You might as well buy a third-level disc."
What's more, it was Zhang Weiping who betrayed the "Producers Alliance" first. What Feiyue Film and Television is doing now is just collecting some interest for other producers.
At the same time, among netizens and fans, Zhang Weiping also did not get any benefits.
"What a shame! It's so ugly to eat."
Production companies headed by Huayi, Guangguang, Chengtian, Xingmei, and Galloping Pony directly launched a strong attack on the new picture!
There was a plate of melon seeds in front of Chen Fei, and the latest hot news was on the computer screen.
So in terms of public opinion, the nine major cinema chains directly reached an agreement and released the news that the increase in movie ticket prices was entirely due to Zhang Weiping's greed.
"If anyone has pirated resources, please share them."
"..."
As with the previous "Thirteen Hairpins", he also organized a viewing party for "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" and invited media and theater parties in the industry.
After the movie screening, he went directly to the stage and promised to many theaters participating in the screening that he would reduce the lowest ticket price of "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" by five yuan and pass the profits to the theaters in exchange for more films.
According to calculations, with the minimum ticket price increasing by five yuan, the final price of the full ticket price for "The Thirteen Beauties of Jinling" will be between 70 and 90 yuan.
Chen Fei, on the other hand, adheres to the method of "the mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole follows behind", eating melon while doing various little tricks underneath.
"Many production companies in the industry jointly issued an announcement that they will boycott Zhang Weiping and New Picture and will never cooperate!"
The remaining theater chains that are still boycotting "The Thirteen Hairpins" have already issued announcements that they will completely boycott the new screen and will definitely not screen this company's movies during the Lunar New Year period.
This number is a full 20 yuan less than "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins"!
As for whether theater chains will increase prices, or follow up with price cuts? Then it has nothing to do with Yu Dong.
He took the initiative to give up profits. What he wanted was the number of films to be scheduled, and he also wanted to squeeze the share of the film arrangement of "The Thirteen Hairpins".
After all, the two movies will be released on the same day, so the box office results of both parties will inevitably change.
As soon as the news was announced, Zhang Weiping immediately exploded!
The theater chain has allocated more film schedules to "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate". Doesn't this mean that his interests will be affected?
Zhang Weiping was not the kind of person who was willing to suffer losses, so he immediately launched a strong counterattack.
He first announced that "The Thirteen Hairpins" and all future movies with the new screen will not enter Poly Bona's theaters.
At the same time, he also revealed a lot of dirty information about Bona.
"This company's financial situation is very poor. When releasing movies under New Picture, it often delays the settlement of box office for a long time, seeking personal gain from it, and doing various secret operations..."
The media, adhering to the attitude of watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously, exposed these black materials on the Internet one by one and added fuel to the flames.
For a time, Bona’s stock plummeted!
Naturally, Yu Dong would not sit idly by and did everything he could to convince those wavering theaters to issue a statement that they would not screen "The Thirteen Beauties" during the Lunar New Year period.
The conflict between the two sides has directly entered a white-hot stage, and all kinds of shocking news and gossip will be released every day.
……
"What did you say? Another theater chain said it would not show our movie?"
Listening to the secretary's report, Zhang Weiping's face was extremely gloomy, and veins were popping out on his forehead!
He never expected that the attitude of the remaining theaters would be so tough.
Having lost so many theaters to schedule films, it has become unclear whether the box office can achieve the expected results.
He has been paying attention to the news on the Internet these days. Netizens and movie fans are also very unhappy about the increase in ticket prices. A large number of viewers are likely to refuse to watch "The Thirteen Beauties" or even watch other movies...
Amidst this ebb and flow, box office results have become increasingly confusing.
"This is a joint official letter from those theaters." The secretary handed over the document in his hand.
Zhang Weiping subconsciously reached out to take it, opened it and glanced at it, only to see that the first person in line was Bona Poly!
"This Yu Dong really rides like a bug."
Zhang Weiping became angry and threw the official letter into the trash can.
After a while, he finally regained his composure and began to think about his next response strategy.
Now that the matter has come to this, there is no point in talking more. The only thing we can do is strive for higher box office results, so as to gain more benefits.
Suddenly, he raised his head and asked: "What is Zhang Yimou doing recently? Why hasn't he been here for a long time?"
"It's on the show."
The secretary replied, and then specifically added: "Director Zhang sent a liaison officer and said that if you have anything, you can pass it on to that person, and that person will be in charge of liaison.
The public relations department has been unable to get through to Director Zhang. The last word from the other side is that everything will be arranged in accordance with the contract. "
"Huh? He's so cool. He dumped all this mess into my hands."
Zhang Weiping sneered and waved for the secretary to leave first.
Afterwards, he locked the door and took out a mobile phone and some long-cherished documents and certificates from the safe.
After turning on the phone, he found a number in the phone book.
"Hello? Xu Lu, it's me, Wei Ping, I need your law firm to help me handle something..."~
~
Perhaps there was some kind of instruction from above. Gradually, the various conflicts between the producers and the theaters on the Internet gradually disappeared under the water.
However, the "mutual insults" between Zhang Weiping and Yu Dong are still continuing, and it seems that they won't be able to stop in a short time.
Various hot news emerges in the entertainment industry every day, and "Pacific Rim" is definitely a focus of media attention.
As the end of the month approaches, this co-production finally reaches its final moment!
China Film Group couldn't wait to announce the news.
"The co-production "Pacific Rim" produced by China Film, Feiyue Pictures, Wanda Pictures, Shanghai Film and Television and Lucasfilm has officially been completed and will soon enter post-production..."
After paying attention to this news, netizens immediately turned their attention to it.
Everyone is very much looking forward to this science fiction blockbuster, which has an investment of US$1.6 million, and wants to know more about it.
Media coverage of the incident took up a lot of space.
"It has been revealed that part of the post-production work for this science fiction film will be completed by DotKey Digital."
"A pure Chinese-style mecha, are you looking forward to it?"
"Chinese actors and production teams will take a special flight back to China. Can the experience of Hollywood's heavy industry movies be brought back to China?"
airport.
Wu Jing and Jing Tian were stopped by the media as soon as they got off the plane.
Various questions lingered in their ears, making them somewhat confused.
It wasn't until the security personnel came over to separate the two from the media that they regained some sense and state, and then calmly handled the interview.
Wu Jing has been in the industry for so many years and knows very well how to maximize his interests when facing media interviews.
While answering various details about the filming of "Pacific Rim", he also did not forget to promote his new movie.
"The military war film "Wolf Warrior" written by Director Chen and starring myself will be launched after the year. This film has an investment of over 100 million and has also received support from the Southern Military Region..."
In comparison, Jing Tian's experience in this area is much scarcer.
But who told her that the person standing behind her was the "Krypton Money Boss" Lu Zheng?
As Jing Tian's manager, after arriving at the scene, Lu Zheng faced media interviews and directly imitated Wu Jing in a decent manner, and also announced Jing Tian's subsequent work arrangements.
"Starlight will invest in the filming of a romantic drama film "New Mother Love Me Again" and a comedy film "Time and Space Rescue". Both films will star Jing Tian as the female lead..."
Chen Fei saw the news on the Internet and had to sigh.
No wonder Da Tiantian is known as the "flower of wealth and honor in the world". Regardless of the quality of the script, the image of a resourceful star has slowly begun to take root in people's hearts.
……
……
As the last big-budget Hong Kong film of the year, "The Legend of Hongmen Banquet", is about to be released, the industry has compared several Hong Kong films that have recently been shown in theaters.
"Cold War 2" is an unparalleled success, with a combined box office of over RMB million in its first week, leading the pack!
Some people in the industry are even predicting that this movie may eventually achieve an astonishing box office record!
Judging from the current box office growth trend, it should not be a problem to break 6 million. As for whether it can surpass "Earthquake", it is still open to discussion.
There are already many small film and television production companies in Xiangjiang that are starting to follow suit.
According to news from Huo Qigang, many movie projects have been successfully approved recently.
""Cold Wave", "Hot War", "Hanjiang", "Crazy War"... they are all following the trend. I wonder, can these people not use their brains? Is it possible to just give them similar names? earned money?"
"Haha, no matter how many of them there are, this kind of situation is definitely unavoidable in Xiangjiang..."
Chen Fei echoed while operating on the computer.
After a while, two new emails were sent out by him.
"Check your mailbox later. I've sent you two more scripts. The "Chill" series has come to an end for the time being, and we have to start a new movie project."
There was no sound from Huo Qigang's side. After a few minutes, the sound suddenly started.
"The "Anti-Drug" trilogy? And another "Equator"?"
"Yes, just look at the arrangements. Try to ensure that one movie is released a year, and don't be too idle."
Hearing Chen Fei's profound words, Huo Qigang was immediately unhappy: "How can I call this salted fish? What I call strict quality control!
Look at "Cold War 2", the mainland box office has reached 6 million. Xiangjiang Film has been developing for so many years, and there are several films with box office exceeding million..."
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, I said the wrong thing, okay?"
Chen Fei comforted him for a while, and then Huo Qigang calmed down again.
After chatting for a few more words, he quickly hung up the phone, fearing that he would touch the pain point of this "chronic" again.
This guy is good at everything, but his temper is too soft, his personality is slow, and he is also very jealous. I don’t know how Guo Jingjing can tolerate his personality...
Different from the excellent performance of "Cold War 2", "East and West 6" with an investment of up to 2011 million is extremely miserable.
After four days of release, the box office was only 5000 million, and the Internet was even more criticized.
On the fifth day, the daily income dropped directly to below 100 million!
Movie fans directed their angry fire at several mainland film investors.
"No wonder you guys are losing money! With a movie like this, what's so good about investing in it?"
"Made, this is such a bad movie, it ruined my outlook. Can you please stop letting movies like this be released in theaters in the future?"
“A dog tied to a director’s chair would make a better picture than this!”
"Isn't it used for washing things?" (This comment has been deleted by the platform)
Chen Fei saw many mainland directors protesting.
"Can such a bad movie attract investment? Why do our movies hit the wall repeatedly?"
"It's so disgusting to step on a horse!"
These five words have been shouted by many people recently, not only in the director circle, but also in the producer circle.
Previously, Zhang Wei used his review of "Jinling Thirteen Panties" to coerce the entire producer circle to seek personal gain for him. Later, there was Yu Dong who took the initiative to make profits for the theater chain and ignored his colleagues.
"A hypocrite, a real villain, both of them are fools..."
No matter how good-tempered Su Guohai was, he couldn't help but curse directly in the office at this time.
Originally, he had almost negotiated with several theater chains, but after Yu Dong's intervention, many theater chains had new ideas.
Since "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" can give away profits, can other movies also give away profits?
Yu Dong's operation was like opening Pandora's box, causing a shock in the film industry!
A 3D blockbuster with an investment of over million actually took the initiative to lower ticket prices and benefit theaters in order to increase the number of films. There is simply no bottom line for this!
If other producers in the future imitate what he did in order to arrange the number of films, wouldn’t the entire industry be in chaos?
No one expected that after Zhang Weiping, Yu Dong would stab the "Producers Alliance" in the back again in this way!
"Made? Breaking the rules, right?"
Chen Fei was also angered by this operation and called Han Sanping on the spot.
When the younger brother does something stupid, of course the older brother has to wipe his ass.
The third master answered the phone. After listening to Chen Fei's question, his tone was full of helplessness: "Oh, I was so confused by his operation. I didn't receive any news in advance. By the time I learned about this situation, it had already been It's too late, the matter has come to this, and all we can do is..."
Chen Fei sneered and interrupted directly: "Then please ask Director Han to tell him, Yu Dong, if the 'stepped account sharing' plan between Feiyue Film and Television and the theaters is not negotiated.
From now on, all my movies will be refused to be screened in theaters owned by Bona Poly, so let him do what he wants. "
"Beep beep..."
The call was immediately hung up.
Han Sanping was stunned for a while before she regained her composure, and immediately realized that the matter was serious.
Yu Dong is no less a troublemaker than Zhang Weiping!
If this causes chaos within the producer, this horse will be nailed to the pillar of shame.
Thinking of the serious consequences, Han Sanping suddenly felt angry.
"Prepare the car! Go to Bona!"
