Chapter 394 November
After "Inception", a major film company really didn't make a single blockbuster.
The production of "Interstellar" is far away from being launched. The company was temporarily on board. In order to please the domestic market, Warner and Paramount cast Liu Yifei to play the female lead. In fact, the company did not spend much money, and in this movie, Cheng Yu'an was unable to participate in the global global production.
In terms of channel distribution, he only gets box office dividends from the North American and Mainland China markets.
"Iron Fist" was created by Remote Film and Television, which was used to boost the stock price and sell characters as favors.
"Pacific Rim" invested nearly 200 million, but it also roped in Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures to share the risks, and the bulk of the money was also brought in.
In the past two years, a major film company has focused mainly on small and medium-cost productions worth around 50 million yuan and the development of TV series - the funds for TV series are recovered much faster than for movies.
After Cheng Lingfeng took over, he directed two TV series in cooperation with Fox and CBS: "The Detective" and "The Broke Sisters".
The current ratings are very good, and both TV stations have chosen to renew the contract.
On the animation company side, due to the popularity of "Despicable Me", the current development situation is very good, and there is no shortage of money. In addition to the movies that are being produced, they have also cooperated with a major film company on "Teddy Bear", which has gone downhill.
A three-way R-rated comedy.
The rest are horror films and cult films that cost 5 to 6 million, with no more than 30 million at most.
In addition to producing, Cheng Lingfeng's main job in the future is to expand distribution channels.
A major film company does not have its own independent distribution channels, and of course it does not have the ability to establish global distribution. The company does not have such a large amount of funds and energy to establish offices and studios around the world.
Her initial idea is to spend 3-5 years establishing local distribution in North America.
This is a very difficult job, and theater chains are willing to cooperate with you, provided that you have sufficient film sources to provide to theaters.
You want to make three to five movies a year, do you think people will pay attention to you?
The minimum standard must be to ensure that you have films available to theaters every month.
Therefore, in the foreseeable future, in addition to producing high-quality movies, a major film company will definitely provide a lot of high-impact movies to theaters to satisfy the attendance rate.
Under the leadership of Cheng Lingfeng, the company has developed rapidly, which is in line with her resolute and resolute style of doing things. Liang Yuan has no worries at all when the company is handed over to her.
"How are you going to deal with Zhang Weiping's matter?" The aunt and nephew had dinner together in the evening.
"Just let him scold you. As long as he doesn't do anything dirty, the company has plenty of ways to win this lawsuit."
"What to do with "The Thirteen Beauties of Jinling"?"
"The copyright of "Thirteen Hairpins" is in the hands of Zhang Yimou. We have re-signed a distribution agreement with his studio. If Zhang Weiping wants to realize his interest, he will just take the money and leave." The compensation agreement proposed by Yuan Yuan is very fair and is enough to cover Zhang Weiping's losses.
But judging from Zhang Weiping's appearance, he probably won't give up.
After eating, Cheng Yuan returned to the hotel. The negotiation meeting was scheduled to start tomorrow morning, and he wanted to go back and have a good rest.
domestic.
Wan Qian finally tasted the taste of being popular. The broadcast of "The Era of Fruity Marriage" allowed her to stand firmly on the front line.
The company's positioning for her is very clear - the queen of daily life dramas, following Hai Qing's path.
Don't set up a persona that is as pale as a chrysanthemum and indifferent to fame and fortune. The entertainment industry is a vanity fair, and being indifferent to fame and fortune here is a very stupid self-comfort.
Liu Shishi is not as light as a chrysanthemum, she is really unambitious.
If you really don't care about fame and fortune, go act in a play.
You can earn three to five hundred a day without starving to death.
Since "The Age of Fruity Marriage" was aired, it has always topped the list in terms of ratings and Internet buzz.
Starring Wan Qian and Wang Kai each signed more than 20 endorsement deals within 10 days, and various commercial performances and activities came to their door.
The most direct impact is that their pockets suddenly bulged.
November is a deserted schedule. The National Day schedule is over and the Lunar New Year schedule is not yet open. Several major domestic production companies don’t pay much attention to this schedule.
In November this year, there are a few films worth mentioning.
One is that "Iron Fist" is finally about to be released. Most of the funding for this movie comes from domestic sources, with Yuan Yuan, China Film, Pony, and Huayi all participating in it.
Huayi spent a lot of money to win the movie and cast Li Bingbing as the female lead.
Therefore, Huayi worked harder than anyone else in promoting "Iron Armor".
"'Iron Ring' topped the North American box office, and the audience praised Li Bingbing as the 'Iron Lady'."
Take a look at Huayi Buy’s press release.
"Iron Fist" grossed 27.3 million US dollars in its first three days, and it was only the weekly champion.
"Li Bingbing punches hard, Chinese girl punches Hollywood!"
"Since the release of "Iron Fist", it has achieved great success at the box office and word-of-mouth. In particular, Li Bingbing's performance has been well received by the audience and the media. DreamWorks said that it will continue to invite Li Bingbing for the sequel."
"The failure of "The Secret Fan" did not affect Li Bingbing's career in Hollywood. Through the performance of "Steel Fist", Li Bingbing has entered the invitation list of mainstream Hollywood manufacturers and has received several film invitations recently.
"
Huayi boasted like this, and indeed achieved good results. The deserted November schedule gave "Iron Fist" over 30% of the film schedule. Huayi's stock price rose 4.2% that day.
The box office in Mainland China exceeded 10 million on the first Tuesday and exceeded 100 million in the first week.
Li Bingbing expressed that he was very satisfied to achieve this result without any offline promotion from the main creator.
We are also more determined to take the international route.
But in fact, before November 15th, there was only one movie available on the market: "Iron Fist", and the audience basically had no choice.
The second film released in November is from Shanghai Film Studio, "The Military Order of the Female General of the Yang Family", which cost 15 million US dollars and 6.6 million on the first day, which was not enough to pay Zhang Bozhi's salary, and all the money was lost.
Why, it's already 2011, and there are still people who think she can handle the box office and are willing to pay such a high salary to hire her.
Is it pity that she is single and raising a child?
Liu Putao is even more hateful. He tinkered with a movie called "Dong Cheng Xi Ji 2011", which sold 7 million on the first day.
When this movie premiered at the Beijing Normal University Theater, a classmate bluntly said it was not funny: "I would rather forget "Westward Journey", which made me laugh until I cried, than accept "The Journey to the West", which made me laugh embarrassingly."
Liu Putao said: "When "Westward Journey" first came out, many people didn't accept it. "Westward Journey" is a burden for me, and it is also a burden for the audience. I just hope that the audience will feel relaxed and helpless.
Go to the theater to watch this movie with a carefree attitude, instead of carrying the baggage of "Westward Journey"."
"I have put down this burden, and I hope the audience can put it down as well."
After Hong Kong directors moved north, it seems they haven't changed their thinking yet, and they still use the same old stuff to fool mainland audiences.
A hodgepodge of all-star movies like "2011", in the words of Grandma Zhao: "What a gathering of heroes, I think it's like a carrot meeting!"
