Putting down the teacup, Ding Xiu grabbed a bunch of grapes on the coffee table, turned his body sideways, and put his feet on the sofa.
After spitting a grape skin into the ashtray, he said lazily: "Is it going to be promoted so soon?"
Promotion is usually one month before the release, so that the audience has a better memory and promote it two months in advance. Unless you can continue to promote it for two months, otherwise when you finish the promotion, the audience will forget it when it is released.
Qin Gang irritated the cigarette butt and said: "What Huayi asked was that the bullets were coming in full force. We may not be our opponents, and we must stagger the schedule, so we will promote it in advance."
Ghost Blows Out the Light invested 50 million, the company invested 20 million, Ding Xiu invested 10 million, and Huayi also invested 10 million, and the rest were other investors.
Although the investment is only 10 million, Huayi holds much more shares than Ding Xiu.
Because they still have theaters, the promotion and promotion of this drama is also handed over to them.
Nowadays, the father is the one who holds theaters.
If you create a food chain in the entertainment industry, the theaters are almost at the top, and further up is the official State Administration of Optoelectronics.
In the eyes of many viewers, second- and third-tier stars are already very popular, but in the eyes of brokerage companies, if you want to ban them, you can still ban them, and you can no longer refrigerate them.
Therefore, in the eyes of artists, the agency is the father.
But ordinary brokerage companies are not as good as those that have investment in film production.
Every year, people invest and produce movies, and they master a large number of roles. These are resources. Who doesn’t want to flatter and please?
But film companies also have difficulties, and the release of the movie depends on the face of the theaters.
If you make people angry, what can you do if you don’t give me a schedule, or what can you do if you give me a low schedule?
Of course, there are not just one theater in China, but those large theaters often have hundreds of theaters. Anyone who still wants to make a living in the circle will not want to offend them.
Sometimes in order to improve the screening, some film producers are "willingly" giving up some of the profits.
The same is true for ghost blowing lights.
Huayi promised that after the Ghost Blows Out the Lights to be released, the daily screenings will be scheduled at no less than 30% in the theaters to which they belong.
Faced with this giant, Qin Gang was a little difficult to compete with. Now that people want to promote it in advance, he has no choice but to smile and smile.
But it is true that I feel aggrieved.
"Brother Xiu, how about you tell me we will build a theater chain by ourselves?"
Qin Gang's eyes narrowed and he said seriously.
The big guys are the ones who play theaters. With theaters, no one has to give him any face in the future. The market is so good now that in addition to their company's plays, other people's plays can also be released on a daily basis.
It’s okay to make a profit without losing money.
It's just that he is not the only one who has the final say in the company.
It’s okay to say anything else, but the theaters have a lot of investment, so it’s not okay without Ding Xiu, the major shareholder, nodding.
Ding Xiu spat, spit out the grape skin, and said lightly: "Do you know how much it costs to open a cinema?"
Qin Gang thought for a moment: "To add up to the manual decoration of rent, water and electricity in first-tier cities, it should be one million in the first year, six or seven hundred thousand in second-tier cities, and more than 500,000 in third-tier cities."
"My idea is this. It focuses on second- and third-tier cities. One is worth 600,000 yuan. Let's carry out the first phase of the project to try out a hundred companies. If the results are good, a few hundred companies will be created in the next year."
A company with a total of 600,000 yuan and a company with a total of 60 million yuan. Although this amount of money is quite large, the company can still take it out, and if it loses, it will not go bankrupt.
As for the current market, there is little chance of loss.
There is something to do.
Ding Xiu sneered: "There are many rich people in China, and you can think of them. Do you think others can't think of them?"
"Old Qin, the times have changed. Our group of people have enjoyed the dividends of the times. They are lucky and got a share of the pie. But the cake is so big. You want to take the big shot and serve the food on the table with those big guys.
I'm afraid you won't have any ashes left."
"At present, there is one giant in China with more than a thousand cinemas, and less than ten are between five hundred and one thousand. It has been so many years. Why do you think there are only a few?"
"Is there few rich people? Or are there not many people with vision?"
It is true that cinemas make money, but they have a lot of investment in the early stage and a lot of maintenance in the later stage. The most important thing is to make a lot of money, and it is meaningless to make one or two companies.
The first issue of Qin Gang mentioned is 100 companies, and the investment is 60 million.
Ding Xiu dares to say that once the company really starts theaters, most of its energy and funds will be spent on the maintenance and film playback of theaters, and it is difficult to achieve other fields.
Qinchao Entertainment is an entertainment company and does not have the ability to develop theaters. This does not have the shortage in the capital chain, but more importantly, there are no talents from related professionals.
How many of the people in the Propaganda Department, Artist Department, Agency Department, Production Department, and Public Relations Department understand theaters?
To the entire theater chain, we have to recruit people again. From early inspections to rent, decoration, and later film releases, a series of problems require too much energy and a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources are needed.
If you really go to the theater, you won’t be able to do any artists and video production in the future?
Not to mention that when opening a theater, you will definitely be suppressed and obstructed by competitors.
Qin Gang shook his head slowly and said leisurely: "There are difficulties, but it is not impossible to go to the market. The domestic market is so big that those giants can't finish it. We just get a piece of the pie."
"Yes, the market is big, you can't finish it, right? In the next ten years, do you believe that there are cinemas in communities in first- and second-tier cities, and audiences can watch movies without leaving home. If there are too many people competing, can you still make money?
"?"
"If something happens to you halfway through and you are forced to close the door for a few months, you have to queue up on the rooftop."
Ding Xiu's second half of the sentence made Qin Gang feel cold.
He knew about the falsehood in those days.
Not only the catering industry, but also the film and television industry has hit hard.
If he did it again, he couldn't stand it.
The grapes were eaten almost the same. Ding Xiu stood up and patted Qin Gang's shoulder and said, "It's okay if you make money, forget it. People should be content. If you think you have too much money, buy more houses. What kind of helicopters or private jets are arranged, and you won't be able to recruit ten more people.
Eight secretary, find some work for them to do without any trouble."
"Okay, I've left, I've been out for so long, I'll go home to sleep."
Regardless of whether Qin Gang heard or not, Ding Xiu left the office straight away and greeted the company employees after coming out.
Lao Qin transferred some people to his company to work in the Demon City, and the space here is not as crowded as before.
But there are still many people, and they are generally young people.
At such a young age, my eyes were dark circles and my hairline moved backwards. It can be seen that I worked overtime a lot.
Not even half a month after resting at home, Qin Gang called and the approval of the ghost blowing light was completed. The title of the movie was not qualified and you can't bring ghosts. In addition, there are several parts in the movie that are too scary and need to be deleted. A few lines are wrong.
Taboos must be changed.
There was no way, and it took a few days to change the title of the film to the Dragon Search.
The areas that should be deleted are also honestly deleted, and the lines are re-dubbed.
