I feel really bad about this. The book group of "Tree Master" is on the verge of death due to poor management, so I have been hesitant about whether to open a group for "The King of Directors". I rarely go to the group to chat, and I don't have enough time for management...
So, if someone can help manage it, I will open a group.
Can anyone help?
At the same time, I would like to ask the moderators of the comment area. There are so many advertisements in the comment area now that I have to delete them every day. It’s not that I don’t support newcomers and new books, but that these advertisements are not useful at all.

October 28th.
Many media and newspapers in Shanghai all reported one thing: "The sales of "Those Years" are booming!!"
"The book "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" sold 200,000 copies on the first day!!"
“Countless bookstores have expressed shortages of supplies!”
"Fans of "Those Years" are going crazy buying books and hope that the publisher can print more to meet their needs!"
"Countless fans have been queuing up at the entrance of major bookstores, looking forward to the release of "Those Years"! And surprisingly, many uncles and aunts are fans of "Those Years"!"
The terrifying sales volume of "Those Years" shocked countless novelists for a while!
200,000 on the first day!! And according to this trend prediction, it should be able to sell more than 500,000 copies in that month!!
This is rare in China. Generally, only writers who have a very high reputation in society and a very good reputation can achieve this kind of achievement.
In the following days, "Those Years" continued to maintain its extremely crazy sales speed!!
The next day, 180,000 copies were sold!
On the third day, 160,000 copies were sold!
On the fourth day, 150,000 copies were sold!!
Although the number of sales has declined, it has exceeded 690,000 copies in four days! It has exceeded the level of 500,000 copies that everyone had guessed.
All those who followed "Those Years" and Wang Shang were stunned after seeing this data!!
And the fans celebrated even more!
The huge sales of the "Those Years" books have led distribution companies to focus on the "Those Years" movie.
The sales of "Those Years" are booming, which shows that its mass base is very high!!
In other words, the results of the release of "Those Years" will definitely not be a hit!!
50 million box office, maybe we can reach this number!!
Maybe it can be a little higher...
80 million?
One hundred million?
Perhaps, another group of dark horses in the film and television industry have appeared.
Moreover, they were pleasantly surprised to find that "Those Years" was already well-known across the country and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people without any need for them to promote it too much.
The top ten publishing companies and those small publishing companies are beginning to make moves.
For a while, the phone number in General Manager Bi Han's office was buzzing. Bi Han was so harassed that he had to add a secretary and give the phone to the secretary.
The beautiful back-office girl who had just become the secretary to the general manager was submerged in the sea of phone calls that kept appearing with a happy face, feeling both pain and happiness.
The marketing team, which had been relatively idle, became busy at this time, cooperating with the general manager's secretary to sort out the issuing company's information and conduct various market surveys.
Moreover, they also have to go out and contact various issuing companies to explore each other's psychological intentions and price bottom lines, and prepare detailed information for Wang Shang's decision-making. As a successful subordinate, you must do two things, one is
Conducting surveys to provide data support for leadership decisions, and the second is to implement leadership decisions.
After experiencing a series of publicity, the planning team also began to plan the publicity plan in the 'pre-release' stage under Wang Shang's arrangement.
The expected release date is still more than a month away, so the publicity plan needs to be prepared as soon as possible.
Wang Shang has been staying in the post-production team of "Those Years" for a whole week, following the editors and dubbing artists who have been discussing the final version of the film.
Regarding several background music of the movie, Wang Shang directly stole the songs from his previous life in order to speed up the time, and then asked the dubbing artists to cooperate with each other to improve it.
After the post-production team worked day and night, forgetting to eat and sleep, the first version of the movie began to take shape, and it is expected to be sent to the Radio and Television Magic City Branch for approval in mid-November.
…
"Hello, aunt!!"
"Hello guys!"
Wang Shang was discussing with Liu Yuqing and others in the post-production team the finale of "Those Years" when they suddenly heard a familiar voice.
Looking back, I was surprised to see my mother carrying a big earthen jar. After more than a year of recuperation, the Queen Mother had very few wrinkles and her face was rosy.
"Mom, why are you here?"
"Can I not come? You haven't been home for a week..." the Queen Mother complained, then put the earthen pot on the table, "I learned the method of Guangdong Province and made some soup during this time, and sent it here
Let me give you a taste!!”
"Thank you, Auntie!!"
"Thank you, auntie!!"
The staff took advantage of this opportunity and showered her with sweet words, making the Queen Mother smile with joy.
A group of people took a paper cup and spooned a little in confusion. After drinking, they praised: "It tastes good!!"
The flattery is flooding in again.
Wang Shang had a dark look on his face: "Is it that exaggerated?"
The Queen Mother said excitedly: "Drink more and come back in a few days..."
Wang Shang: "..."
…
Time passes day by day, and November is soon here.
The movie Spring Festival is approaching.
The negotiations between the distribution alliance and the theater alliance are entering a critical moment. Both parties know that the longer this negotiation drags on, it will be very detrimental to themselves and the other party.
After screening, the marketing team finally identified three issuing companies with strong intentions and relatively large discounts.
As for the distribution companies in the distribution alliance, Wang Shang directly excluded them. Now the negotiations between the distribution alliance and the theater alliance have a strong smell of gunpowder. If "Those Years" is released through the distribution alliance, the chance of being cheated by the theater alliance will increase.
Very high.
After confirmation, Wang Shang took several people from the marketing team and visited them one by one.
Star Entertainment is a production company established in 1992. In 2000, it obtained the approval of the state to obtain film and television distribution rights. It has developed very rapidly and now has assets with a market value of more than 4 billion.
Although there is a certain gap in distribution channels compared to other large film and television distribution groups, the conditions offered to "Those Years" are very good.
Both parties had made an appointment in advance yesterday, so when Wang Shang arrived, he could directly enter into negotiations.
Wang Shang came here in person, and they did not dare to neglect it. The company's president, Jiang Wei, specially canceled many meetings to receive Wang Shang in person.
"The people below have communicated some time ago, and we can reduce the distribution commission to 17%; we can advance the distribution costs and publicity fees first, and then settle the settlement after the box office, DVD, and online sales come out. I don't know Director Wang
Is there anything else that needs to be added?”
Wang Shang said directly: "Yes, I want the tax on the invoices to be paid by your company."
Jiang Wei immediately retorted: "This is not okay. As a rule, you, the producer, pay this tax. What we do is against the rules. I don't dare to start this, otherwise it will cause dissatisfaction with other distribution companies."
Wang Shang argued rationally: "You have to think about it, our current publicity work for "Those Years" has been very thorough from the time it was launched to now. From the huge sales of the novel "Those Years", we can see that it has been
We have a very strong audience base. Now you only have one last step, which is much easier than other movies. If you can't, we can find another one, and you also know my relationship with the chairman of Datang International."
Jiang Wei thought for a while, called the chairman for instructions, and replied: "There is no need to talk about taxes. After all, we have to consider the entire industry and cannot break the rules. But our company can do it on the issuance commission.
Concession, 1 percentage point!!”
In fact, the value of the 1% issuance commission is higher than the value of those taxes, but Jiang Wei was also moved by the "famousness" mentioned by Wang Shang just now, so he decided to use the 1% issuance commission instead of the tax.
Wang Shang did not press ahead: "Okay! Then draft the agreement today and sign it tomorrow!"
Both parties shake hands and have a happy cooperation.
The next day, both parties held a public signing press conference and invited many media reporters to come.
Under countless flashlights, Wang Shang and the chairman of Star Entertainment submitted a signing agreement to each other, officially announcing that a series of distribution rights such as the release, DVD distribution, online sales, and rental of "Those Years" will be handed over to Star Entertainment.
.
After signing the contract comes the interview session.
Wang Shang was obviously the focus of the entire meeting, as countless reporters focused on him from the beginning.
"Hello Director Wang, it has been rumored that Director Wang has a good personal relationship with Tang Zongshi of Datang International. May I ask why you didn't choose Datang International, which has more complete distribution channels, as your publisher? Instead, you chose Star Entertainment, which is not a distribution alliance?"
"Are you considering the theater chain and specifically severing ties with Datang International?"
