Super quality mind

Chapter 449

The negotiation with Sister Hua broke up unhappy, Shi Lei didn't care too much.Sister Hua is just a manager who only holds a small amount of shares in Huayi Company. She is not considered a core figure. Can she still use Huayi's resources to suppress Shi Lei's brokerage company?
But soon, Shi Lei knew what Sister Hua meant.

"What did you say? This movie has good reviews, the audience's response is also good, and the publicity can keep up. How come it's been almost a month since it was released, but the box office is only over 4 million? Didn't you say that the box office of this movie will definitely exceed [-] million? Is it?" Shi Lei patted the table and questioned Gu Yongchuan, how could Shi Lei not be angry after spending so much publicity expenses, but the box office is still weak?
"I don't know. It is said that we have a box office of more than [-] million yuan in ten days. Based on past experience, if we increase publicity investment, it is absolutely no problem for the box office to exceed [-] million yuan. I don't know why the attendance rate suddenly plummeted, and the drop is too big. Already." Gu Yongchuan was also a little dazed, ordinarily it shouldn't be, even if he didn't increase the investment in publicity, it would be easy for this movie to exceed [-] million at the box office, and the reputation of the film critics is not bad.

"I don't know, I don't know, I don't know anything, what do I need you for? Just merge Junfeng Entertainment into Dongsheng Entertainment, pack up your things and get out!" Shi Lei said angrily.

When you asked for money, you patted your chest and swore to me that you would be able to break into the top ten box office this year, and you could also get the top ten domestic 2D movies in history. A low-budget movie was defeated, and the investment of that movie was less than half of this one!
The sun always comes after the storm~~~
"Hey, who is it?"

"It's me, Sister Huayi Hua, have you seen our methods?" Sister Hua asked proudly.

Ok?Huayi's method?Shi Lei seemed to understand something, and immediately asked Gu Yongchuan to investigate, the small-budget movie that was released at the same time as them, and the box office exceeded theirs, which company invested in the filming and which company distributed it.

Sure enough, it was invested and issued by Huayi Film and Television. Huayi Film and Television is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Huayi Media. So, is it Huayi's people playing tricks?
"Lao Gu, do you know why this movie has mediocre reviews and our reviews are good, but the box office is not as good as them?" Shi Lei asked, pointing to a movie on the box office statistics.

Gu Yongchuan froze for a moment, then widened his eyes: "Mr. Shi, what do you mean, they stole the box office?!"

Steal the box office?Shi Lei didn't know what was going on, but he couldn't act like he had heard this word for the first time, so he could only say vaguely: "It's good that you know, go and investigate, what's going on!"

After Gu Yongchuan left, Shi Lei began to inquire what stealing box office meant.

It turns out that because film investors, distributors, and cinema chains share the total box office of the film according to a certain ratio, the investment and distribution of each film are different, and the actors of the film are also different, so the share ratio is naturally different.For example, in the movie released by Junfeng Entertainment, because Lian Sishan and Leng Ruoxi are the heroes and heroines, the share of investors and distributors is slightly higher. The line is divided slightly higher.

Now the theaters only need to type out tickets for Huayi's movie for those who want to see the movie starring Lian Sishan and Leng Ruoxi, or handwritten tickets, or take the promotional subsidies from Junfeng Entertainment, but they don't post them. That's enough to lower their movie box office.

Ma Dan, there are so many tricks in it!
If it is said that there is nothing about Huayi, even if Shi Lei is killed, he will not believe it.No matter how you say it, Huayi is also a first-class big company in China. I didn't expect to do such a villainous behavior. It's really shameless!

But Shi Lei doesn't have any deep friendship with those theaters, even if he has a little, compared with Huayi, it's nothing.Shi Lei was thinking, how to make the theater spit out the stolen box office and make things worse?
But the other party is Huayi, so to speak it is the MO.1 in China, even if it makes a big deal, will Huayi be sure to admit it?The theater would definitely not admit it, they took advantage of it, and Shi Lei didn't have evidence, it seems that he has to go there himself to get the evidence.

At this time, Sister Hua was holding the wine glass, enjoying the iced wine in the glass.Who did Shi Lei think he was, who integrated four small entertainment companies and could compete with Huayi?What is Huayi's status? It occupies half of the country's entertainment industry, and the boss has an inseparable relationship with the propaganda department and other leaders.

This is just a few phone calls from Sister Hua. If the boss calls himself, Junfeng Entertainment will never be able to release movies in the future. This is the ability of the leader!
"Lao Gu, do you know the person in charge of any theater?"

Gu Yongchuan had just arranged for some people to contact the directors of those movie theaters, but Shi Lei handed it over to the office.

"I know a vice president of a theater chain, and he can be regarded as a person with some weight in domestic theater chains." Gu Yongchuan thought for a while and said.

"Contact him for me, and I'll treat him to dinner tonight."

……

Gu Yongchuan contacted the other party very smoothly, almost without saying anything, the other party agreed.Fortunately, everyone is in the capital at this time, and it is more convenient to meet. If it is at the headquarters of Junfeng Entertainment, it will take the next day to meet.

"Mr. Yuan, hello, hello, I'm Shi Lei."

"Oh~~ You are Mr. Shi, you are really young and promising. When I was your age, I was still in school. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. I really can't accept my old age." Mr. Yuan said, patting the back of Shi Lei's hand .

"Where is it, Mr. Yuan praised it absurdly. I just rely on the help of my friends. Mr. Yuan, please sit down and see what you want to eat."

Mr. Yuan ordered a few random dishes, and Shi Lei ordered some signature dishes and a bottle of red wine.

Smoking is one of the tools that can bring men closer together, and the other is women.When the three of them are sitting together and puffing, even if they don't speak, they won't feel embarrassed.

When the wine was half drunk, Shi Lei asked: "Mr. Yuan, I have a question to ask. This movie released by our company has good reviews from critics and audiences, and the online ratings are also very high. Why did the box office drop suddenly? ?”

The embarrassment on Mr. Yuan's face flashed away: "Well, I'm not sure, it may be that the newly released movie hit the box office."

Alas, why did you insist on going against Huayi Media?Huayi is a giant in China, and cooperates with our theaters many times every year. Sister Hua called and said that she wanted to teach you a lesson, so we just did it. Besides, if you steal the box office, the money you make is not good. our.

Sure enough, their theaters also got involved, it was really Sister Hua's fault.Sister Hua is just a gold medal agent, not the boss of Huayi, but she has such great energy. If the boss of Huayi makes a move, will a company like Junfeng Entertainment be able to withstand it?

Shi Lei was very worried, even if he got rid of Sister Hua, he still couldn't get rid of Huayi Media, and he would still be bullied.Besides, the theaters help Sister Hua, there are also benefits. If Shi Lei gives them benefits, what's the use of getting it back at the box office? Isn't the money spent to earn a reputation?
"Mr. Yuan, let's not talk dark words. I know about Sister Hua looking for you. In fact, she called me and told me. I want to know what I have to pay so that you can take our box office. Come back?" Shi Lei gritted his teeth and asked.

Mr. Yuan's expression changed slightly, he put down his chopsticks, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, and lit it on his own: "Mr. Shi, I don't understand what you mean. But I can give you some advice, Huayi It’s not something that entertainment companies like you can offend. If there’s any misunderstanding, it’s best to speak up quickly. And the box office you mentioned may return to normal starting tomorrow, but the previous ones are just like that.”

Mr. Yuan's words are very clear, let Shi Lei apologize to Sister Hua, and the box office that was stolen before will not come back, but starting tomorrow, it may not continue to steal the box office.

Damn, it's just too deceitful!Stealing the box office is still so confident, can the company do this?

"Mr. Yuan, if you do this, it will be bad if someone finds out the evidence!"

"Evidence? What evidence? What evidence can be found?" Mr. Yuan looked proud.

He has been in theaters for so many years, and this kind of concealment of the box office has never been discovered.Even if you don't use other movie tickets instead, and you don't need to write movie tickets by hand, customers won't find it strange if you just add the movie ticket price to popcorn, soda, etc., and the money is still taken by their movie theaters. ?
The conversation with President Yuan broke up unhappy, Shi Lei was a little worried.It is only now that he deeply understands that without connections, he has to be tied up in many things.

As a last resort, Shi Lei could only call his father for help: "Dad, how is your negotiation going?"

"It's going well. It is expected that within a week, a formal contract can be signed. Both the Azmo Group and the Brunswick Group have agreed to exchange shares for the purchase. Our acquisition of Ferretti and Coty this time not only did not lose money, but also made a lot of money! "Shi Xitong is in a good mood. The negotiations have been developing in a good direction these days, and now they are discussing the details. It may not take a week.

"Dad, when will you be back?"

"What, do you have something to do?" Shi Xitong keenly felt that Shi Lei's words were a little weak.

Shi Lei thought about it, and told about it on the phone.After hearing this, Shi Xitong laughed out loud. He has seen this kind of thing a lot. Big companies suppress small companies. It is not only natural, but it has happened since ancient times.

For example, Taishi International, when they encounter some other investment companies competing with them for some benign investment in China, they will also use some unconventional means to suppress the other party.But that was bullying others. Now that his son was being bullied, it was different. Those who bullied others deserved to die!
"Don't worry, when I go back next week, I will let them spit out the money they swallowed you!"
