Do you know which business unit is the most profitable in the entire remote media industry?

It’s not a movie, it’s not a TV series, it’s not an artist manager, it’s not Yuanqiu Technology and Yuanqiu Cinema.

It's the variety show department!

The variety show department is also the department with the least presence in the entire remote department.

But it’s really making money!

So far, in the remote variety show department, the project "Super Girl" alone has brought the company more than 100 million in profits every year.

After "Super Girl", the variety show department launched two more music talent shows, "Come on! Good Man!" and "Absolutely Sing".

It is no exaggeration to describe the profitability of the variety show department as making a fortune every day.

It's the end of the year, and the remote variety show department teamed up with the Korean studio to come up with a plan:

"running man!"

A celebrity outdoor competition reality show.

Prepare to do it simultaneously with South Korea.

This idea was actually created by a Korean studio, but the variety show department looked very promising. In addition, after doing music talent shows for so many years, I was a little tired. I thought about changing the track. The two parties hit it off and started doing business together.

chant.

Then, the Korean studio shared the copyright to the country for 5 million yuan.

The Korean studio also has shares in companies such as CJ. They were sold cheaply and it was difficult to negotiate with other shareholders.

But the price is already enough.

At present, "Running Man!" is only a draft plan, and it still needs further improvement. No matter how soon it is, it will have to wait until next summer before it can be officially recorded.

After Cheng Yuan worked as an uncle at the racecourse for a few days, he had enough rest and returned to normal life.

It's only the end of December, but the media has already begun to take stock of the Lunar New Year holidays.

The Lunar New Year holiday is not over yet, why are you so anxious to take stock?

The problem is that this year’s Lunar New Year festival saw a huge crowd and squeezed in dozens of movies, but their performance was too poor.

"Three Guns" was criticized upon its release.

Not to mention "Chilling", Sister Zhi Ling is very beautiful and Jay Chou is very handsome riding a motorcycle, but they can't attract box office.

"October Siege" had a good reputation, but it didn't do well at the box office.

This led to a very strange phenomenon: audiences rushed to watch "The Martian" and "2012" which were released for more than a month.

Even though "The Martian" had been promoted for a long time, at the end of December, the total box office was actually pushed to 610 million by the audience.

The first domestic blockbuster to exceed 600 million.

"2012" also achieved good results of 430 million.

Where can you go to reason with this?

As of now, "Three Guns" has just earned 200 million, which is far from the 700 million starting point that Zhang Dazui said.

It was definitely a profit. According to Zhang Yimou's later statement, the cost of this film was no more than 40 million. Zhang Daguo said it was 80 million, but if it did not reach the expected goal, he would lose money.

Originally, because of the Olympics, I thought there would be no new films for three years. I thought about opening for three years, but ended up eating shit.

Zhang Weiping was so angry that he jumped on his feet.

In desperation, he started biting people randomly. If he wanted to spray, he would spray a big one, directly at China Film and Director Han:

"He can share profits and get benefits without spending a penny. In fact, China Film Group does not have many theaters, but its greatest power is to introduce. It is well known that the schedule of imported blockbusters will be used to squeeze domestic blockbusters. You don't follow

If he cooperates with him, he will release two imported films in this schedule to fight with you and let the dog bite you. "Three Guns" chose to cooperate with China this time, so during the schedule, it was hit by two imported films "2012" and "District 9"

Blockbusters are being chased and intercepted, and there are also some films in which China Film Group Co., Ltd. is involved. When I chose China, I expected this kind of consequences. This approach is unethical. Domestic films are originally in the growth period, and they still have disadvantages when competing with American blockbusters.

Yes, "2012" and "District 9" must have played a role in diverting audiences. He is the banker, and no one dares to provoke him. This kind of monopoly has restricted and persecuted the domestic film market, taking advantage of the mutual competition between domestic films.

Killing for profit. We, a private company, have no privileges. Without any protection, it is very difficult to make the film what it is today."

"The most blatant thing is that someone openly asked the media in the name of a certain group to remove the positive reports of "Three Guns" in the headlines and make sure to publish negative reports. These behaviors, to put it harshly, are monopolies and hooligans. But movies are not

A few people can cover up the truth."

"The meaning is very clear. Domination by one company is a kind of monopoly."

"We don't know each other, and we haven't spoken to each other. It's not like we have any conflicts. I just can't stand this situation: What qualifications do you have to use the country's resources? The country gives you the rights to create a personality cult and create a monopoly? Here

Everyone is well aware of how many corruption problems there are. The Huabiao Award is a sacred and noble award for Chinese filmmakers. What has happened now? You are a cadre of a state-owned enterprise, is it reliable to do this?"

Then the reporter asked him: "Are you encountering obstacles now? Will you encounter intensified retaliation now?"

"He? Dismissive!" His tone was louder than ever.

In fact, there are even more outrageous words that I haven't written yet. I opened my mouth and directly scolded Director Han for being a pedestal of Chinese movies.

Then this guy backhandedly deducted Zhang Yimou's director's share.

The box office of "The Tomb" reached over 30 million, and China Film lost all its money.

"The Storm 2" was less than 40 million, and I am too embarrassed to mention the 800 million I boasted before. I only said that my Asian box office was 100 million.

He also said that he is still very confident in special effects martial arts.

To be honest, the special effects are indeed good, but the plot is terrible!

Just like Explosive Shell, it’s done with bang bang bang and calls it a day. I don’t know what story it’s telling.

"October Siege" was the best-performing among these films, but it only took in 240 million, and China Film Group suffered another loss.

Director Han really thinks that a commercial film with an all-star cast and the main theme like "October Siege" has a head start.

But fortunately, "The Martian" made China Film a lot of money, otherwise China Film's KPI this year would be very ugly.

There is another reason for taking stock of the Lunar New Year stalls so early.

"Avatar" is here!

The introduction of "Avatar" is confirmed, but the results in overseas markets have already come to an end.

The opening weekend in North America was 73 million, which didn’t look like much, but it grossed 140 million US dollars the following week. In ten days of release, the North American box office was 213 million, and the global box office exceeded 700 million!

It was released in advance on Hong Kong Island and grossed 48 million in 11 days, locking in the annual championship in advance.

No one doubts whether Truck Driver can conquer the global market. The question now is how much he wants to earn in the global market.

Domestic review of results so early is also a sign of confidence in "Avatar".

Waiting for "Avatar" to be released in China in a few days, what else do you want to do?

Of course the Lunar New Year stalls can end early.

The film scheduling plans of each theater chain have almost come out. According to the data obtained remotely, the domestic filming schedule of "Avatar" will exceed 90%.

How to play other movies!

But I no longer care about it. "The Martian" earned 600 million domestically and over 50 million US dollars in overseas markets.

Calculated, the total global box office of "The Martian" reached 1 billion yuan.
Chapter completed!
