"There are too many things to say, and Mr. Zhang doesn't understand movies, right. Talking too much will only make you more confused."
Tang An said this with a slight smile. Although there was no sarcasm on the surface, the meaning was obvious.
There is no sarcasm in this sentence, and no one present is stupid, so no one can't hear it.
Zhang Wei originally wanted to embarrass Zhang Qiang, but Tang An blocked her back with just one sentence, unable to refute.
Fan Luyuan's face also looked a little ugly. Just now he politely said that he was a layman here and needed to ask Tang An for more advice.
Now Tang An is using his words to block Zhang Wei, which means that you are all laymen and I have nothing to say to you.
Tang An didn't hold on to it. His goal was achieved, and the people didn't seem to welcome him, so he left first.
"Dr. Fan, I have an event tonight, so I won't bother you too much. We'll meet up next time."
He left the grand banquet hall, leaving everyone with stunned faces.
"Haha, this Mr. Tang seems to be here to cause trouble. He choked and left."
On the side, Wang Changtian shook his wine glass slightly, looked at Fan Luyuan and said.
Yu Dong smiled and said, "Although Mr. Tang is young, he can speak impeccably and can carry a gun and a stick. Zhang Wei is also the vice president in charge of business negotiations here, so he has nothing to say."
"Both Mr. Cai and Mr. Ma personally negotiated Ah Li's important acquisitions. Most of the other acquisitions were just general trends, and Mr. Zhang's specialty is financial analysis," Wang Zhongjun said with a chuckle.
What is business negotiation? It's nothing more than asset evaluation, analysis, and bargaining.
Wang Zhongjun even felt that when his group of film and television company bosses went from cinema to cinema across the country in order to expand distribution channels, most of the cinema managers they met at the wine table were much easier to deal with than Zhang Wei.
The original distribution channels were created by one cinema after another over a wine table. There were all kinds of people, from local bullies to relatives of high-ranking officials, from all walks of life, and it was really difficult to deal with those talents.
A year ago, when Ahli, Tengxun, and Baidu entered the film and television industry, Wang Zhongjun was still frightened for a while. Facing these three giants, he even worried that several major film companies would be like other industries and would not be able to survive for a few years.
It has to be acquired.
Now it seems that they are all amateurs.
Ah, I bought, bought, bought, youku, Culture China and N spent tens of billions, but it was of no use at all, and it made no achievements on the big screen or the small screen.
Baidu iQiyi's online movies are doing very well, second only to Tudou, and outperforming Youku and Tengxun Video.
However, after all, online movies are something that cannot be put on the stage and are not something to worry about.
Tengxun Pictures also did not do its job properly. At first, it competed with Han and Tang Dynasties for the online literature market, trying to develop all-round IP with online novels as its core.
As a result, the founder still couldn't shake the status of Singularity. In more than a year, KouKou Reading quickly attracted a huge team of authors, and there were more and more books. They adapted some online dramas, online dramas, animations, and games.
.
The two Internet giants are not doing their job properly, and all their money is wasted and has no use.
After going around in a circle, Wang Zhongjun discovered that the film and television industry is still the exclusive domain of several of them.
Wang Zhongjun smiled at Yu Dong and the others, "Do you think this personnel adjustment of Li Pictures will have any effect?"
"No matter how you adjust it, the size of the raccoon is there. If you really want to do something, nothing can be difficult for them."
Compared to Wang Zhongjun, others are not so optimistic.
Wang Changtian said, "Roughly estimated, nearly half of the 8 billion box office in the summer season came from online ticket purchases. Nuomi Movies, Taopiao Piao, Maoyan, and Weipiao Piao invested a total of more than 500 million in ticket replenishment. What if?
No matter the cost, I estimate that with the help of ticket sales, we can make a movie with a box office of one billion."
Stack up a billion-dollar box office movie?
Wang Zhongjun was noncommittal and just wanted to refute.
But considering the discounts offered by purchasing tickets online, it’s not impossible.
With a box office of 1 billion, if you consider an ordinary 2D movie, it would have sold almost 30 million tickets.
With so many people across the country, it’s not like they can’t sell it.
Ah, if Li is determined to do this, let alone 9.9 yuan, 6.9 yuan, 5.9 yuan movie tickets are not impossible to get.
Ten yuan is reluctant to part with it, but six or seven yuan is different. Most viewers will not be stingy, as long as the movie is not too bad.
Really, as long as Ahli is willing to spend the money, it is not difficult to create a movie with a box office of one billion.
"This online ticket purchasing platform is also equivalent to the theater terminal on the ground. Now online ticket purchasing accounts for half. Who knows whether it will account for 80% or 90% in a few years."
Wang Changtian's words made several bosses frown. Although the ticket subsidy on several platforms is now beneficial to them, it is foreseeable that as long as the market is divided up, they will probably have to pay for the ticket subsidy themselves.
It's just that they can't interfere. This is the promotion of the development of the Internet. Everything is convenient on the Internet. It is impossible to go back and there is no good way.
Several bosses were chatting there, while Fan Luyuan and Zhang Wei could only watch Tang An leave.
"Mr. Zhang"
Fan Luyuan opened his mouth to comfort Zhang Qiang, but Zhang Qiang interrupted him.
"Director Fan, the resignation letter will be sent to your mailbox tomorrow. The handover of the company is basically over. I will do the finishing work before leaving. I hope you can lead Li Pictures to do better."
After Zhang Qiang finished speaking, he didn't care about their reactions and left Weiweidian.
I originally thought that I would settle everything over time and leave peacefully, but now it seems
The words of comfort that Fan Luyuan was about to say were suppressed in his mouth.
He swallowed it back and watched Zhang Qiang leave with uncertainty.
In public, Zhang Qiang didn't give him any face, and Fan Luyuan couldn't persuade him to stay, not to mention that Zhang Wei had made it clear before that she was targeting Zhang Qiang.
It was a nice banquet. First, Tang An left, and then the co-president of Li Pictures resigned in public and also left.
No one realized why Zhang Qiang resigned right after he said he was going to resign.
But when I thought about it, it became obvious what Tang An and Zhang Qiang were talking about when they left.
"This is too direct, without any mercy." Wang Changtian looked at this scene and marveled.
Everyone was speechless. Everyone present could say this, but Wang Changtian was not qualified.
On the eve of the listing of Guangxian Media, Wang Changtian kicked away Zhang Zhao, the CEO of Guangxian Pictures. This was far more ruthless than it is now.
Not only were outsiders watching the joke, the other seven companies in the Great Entertainment Group were also laughing secretly.
A good banquet has just changed.
The banquet ended hastily, and it was not in vain to come all the way to witness a "farce".
As the host, Yu Yongfu saw off the bosses one by one, while Fan Luyuan, Zhang Wei, Ahli Pictures coo Deng Kangming and others came to a conference room in the hotel.
Looking at these future subordinates of his, Fan Lu lost his energy.
When I was working at Alipay, in order to win the fast payment battle with banks, everyone, including the customer service department who was complained countless times every day by customers about Alipay payment difficulties, plus the pressure from Ma Yun above, how could they have the energy to do anything?
Internal struggle.
But now is not the time to accuse anyone, there is no objection.
More than half of 2013 has passed, and the next six months can be said to be preparations for next year's work.
The company's financial report for the first half of the year is not bad. After all, it has the big dark horse "To Youth", which is enough to make up for the shortfall of "Tomb Raiders", and there is still more.
Fan Luyuan went straight to the point, "From today on, even if I officially join Li Pictures, I ask you to confirm at least two projects in the shortest possible time, whether it is production or distribution!"
"Dr. Fan, apart from a few movies from Hantang Media, the most important movies next year that have not signed distribution contracts are "Havoc in Heaven", "Macau Storm", "Dear", and "One Step Away"
, "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" has been released, Jiang Wen and Tsui Hark have not started filming yet.
"Havoc in Heaven" was published by Xing Hao himself, "Macau" was partly funded by Bernard, and the distribution in the mainland is probably done by Bernard himself, "Dear" was invested by Guang Xian and Xing Mei, and "One Step Away" was produced by Jiang
The article is full of joy, Wanda participated in the investment, "Return" was invested by Layshi, "Take the Tiger Mountain" by Berner and Wanda invested, Youku also participated."
Zhang Wei also made preparations, quickly reported the movies that are expected to be big hits next year, and then said.
"At present, the investors of these movies have strong publicity and distribution capabilities. Unless they offer high guarantees, they will definitely not be able to obtain the distribution rights."
Fan Luyuan nodded, Zhang Wei had done a lot of work anyway.
These movies all have the potential to be big hits.
"Havoc in Heaven" stars three superstars, has a huge investment, special effects worth looking forward to, and a wide audience for its subject matter.
"Omen" is said to be a gambling film, a subject that Chow Run-fat is good at, and after "Let the Bullets Fly", Chow Run-fa has lost his reputation as a box office poison.
"One Step Away" has Jiang Wen as a guarantee.
The combination of Zhang Yimou + Gong Li in "The Return" is definitely another classic.
Although it is said to be a love biography movie with an unflattering subject matter, Zhang Yimou is still a top director in the country. War movies like "The Thirteen Hairpins" can sell nearly 600 million at the box office, and "The Return" is not bad either.
"Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" is directed by Xu Ke, and the subject matter is also unproven, but the success of "Detective Dee: The Empire of Heaven" and "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" are enough to reassure people.
"Dear" is another unpopular subject, and it is now popular for these great directors to play with niche subjects.
Although Chen Kexin is a little behind the above mentioned ones in terms of business, he is still a big first-line director. Zhao Wei has just become popular with "To Youth", and the prospects of this "Dear" are also very promising.
As for the fact that the investors of these movies have distribution capabilities, Fan Luyuan didn't care. He waved his hand, glanced at everyone, and said loudly.
"Mr. Zhang, everyone, although we at Li Pictures lack experience and cannot compare to other companies in terms of connections, channels, and resources in film and television, we have our advantages!"
"The high guarantee fee is not a problem. We must give full play to our advantages. Each department will immediately conduct a detailed and comprehensive evaluation investigation on the above-mentioned movies. I want to see it within three days!"
Of course everyone understands what Fan Luyuan's advantages are.
money!
This is the biggest advantage of Ahli. Even if the producers of these films have distribution capabilities, they are not invested by one company after all.
As long as you put forward a high enough price that the other party cannot match, or the price is too high to bet on, you will naturally get the right to issue it!
"Han and Tang Media snatched "Heart Blossoms on the Road" from Conghua with a guarantee of 700 million. If it were done now, we should have paid 890 million or even one billion!"
When Fan Luyuan was working in Alipay, he dared to unilaterally connect to the quick payment interface when the bank did not agree to the quick payment. He dared to do such illegal things, and he did not take lightly the guarantee of several hundred million.
Besides, the success or failure of one or two projects is not important. What Li lacks is never money!
Ahli Pictures is not just a film company, Fan Luyuan has had many discussions with senior executives such as Ma Yun and Zhang Yong.
All companies under Ahli are not independent entities. Their own profits and losses are insignificant. The most important thing is their contribution to the whole.
Even if Li Pictures and Taopiaopiao lose hundreds of millions a year, they can still recover it in other ways and through various channels!
The guarantee of one billion yuan was shouted out, and Zhang Wei and others' confidence increased greatly.
As long as they have enough funds, they are sure to win the distribution rights of at least one or two movies!
Not short of money!
Big dog owner Ah Li showed his fangs to the entertainment industry for the first time, and he was unreasonable at all!
