Chapter 779: Each has his own thoughts (12,000 daily changes~)
Any reform, no matter how big or small, is bound to damage the interests of some vested interests, and they are often the biggest stumbling block on the road to reform.
Wu Jianye's current Fengge Cinema chain and movie viewing lottery activities have already affected the interests of the original distribution company and certain people. If Wu Jianye hadn't taken the upper-level route from the beginning, he would have been called out by now.
Went to Radio and Television to talk to China Film.
But even so, it will still cause dissatisfaction among some people, but the method will be relatively mild.
For example, the movie-watching lottery organized by Fengge Cinemas was pointed out by some people at the conference as an act that was inconsistent with China's national conditions and policies.
"It seems that some people can't sit still anymore!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
Liu Jianshe saw that Wu Jianye didn't look anxious and said with a smile: "You are sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai!"
Wu Jianye laughed: "Mainly because I saw that my senior brother was not worried about me, so I knew that this matter must not be a big problem!"
Liu Jianshe nodded and said: "Although there are some different voices, these voices have been suppressed now. Whether it is the Ai Department of Radio and Television or our boss, they all support Fengge Cinema Line's actions.
In addition, some old people are speaking for you, and these voices will no longer be heard for the time being!"
Wu Jianye glanced at Liu Jianshe and said with a smile: "Senior Brother, do you mean it will still be possible in the future?"
Liu Jianshe: "Absolutely. This time everyone regards your new movie as an experiment. If your new movie can achieve good box office, this matter will be finalized. If your movie fails,
Well, someone will definitely jump out and say something again!"
Wu Jianye shook his head. Liu Jianshe saw Wu Jianye like this and asked curiously: "Why, you don't have confidence in your movie!"
Wu Jianye laughed and said: "How could it be possible? I just feel that some people are doing useless work!"
Liu Jianshe looked at Wu Jianye in surprise.
Wu Jianye explained: "No matter what everyone thinks privately, on the surface Fengge Cinema Line is a company in Xiangjiang, and Fengge Theater Line's ability to enter the domestic theater chain market is determined by the higher-ups. Even if they are
What can you do if you don’t agree?”
In fact, Wu Jianye didn't pay attention to those who raised objections from the beginning, relying on the domestic development investments of Yaoguang Group and Yiwang Group in recent years.
And the media industry controlled by Fengge Media is the overseas throat that the country needs very much.
Wu Jianye believed that before 1997, as long as he did not commit suicide, he did not need to worry about some official issues at all.
Some people who want to target Fengge Cinemas on the official front can only say that they are making useless efforts.
Liu Jianshe smiled bitterly and said, "If you think so, you're taking it for granted!"
Wu Jianye paused for a moment and asked, "Is there any hidden secret?"
Liu Jianshe explained: "As the saying goes, the king of hell is easy to meet, but the devil is difficult to deal with. Only some people who want to cause trouble for you will always find some way. It will be better if I help you look after it here at China Film.
By the way, what if someone censors your company’s movies more severely in the future because of this incident?”
Wu Jianye paused slightly and said, "If someone does this, then I have to have a good chat with them!"
Liu Jianshe looked at Wu Jianye with some surprise. In the past, Wu Jianye had always given him the impression of being very cautious and careful, and he was more tolerant of official matters. But he didn't expect that Wu Jianye would do it now.
Say such domineering words!
In fact, this is also because Liu Jianshe's understanding of Wu Jianye is not so comprehensive. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Wu Jianye has completely established himself at the top. Now those people are no longer able to threaten Wu Jianye.
.
In fact, even if the disintegration of the Soviet Union had not happened, Wu Jianye's impression among the older generation of filmmakers was still very good. However, Wu Jianye respected these old people and did not want them to participate in these messy things.
Things come up!
"Did you do something shocking again?" Liu Jianshe asked.
"Brother, I am just a director. I can do amazing things, but I believe that there is righteousness in the world. What I do is meaningful to the domestic film industry, so naturally I don't worry about those people!"
Wu Jianye laughed.
Liu Jianshe secretly curled his lips, naturally he didn't believe Wu Jianye's answer, but as he said, everyone has their own secrets, and there is no need for outsiders to explore other people's secrets.
"Well, it's good if you have this confidence!" Liu Jianshe said sourly: "It seems that I have been a villain in vain this time!"
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "How can you say that? If it weren't for your support to me these years, senior brother, I wouldn't be what I am now!"
After that, the chat between the two people tended to be daily chat, but during the chat, Wu Jianye still knew one thing, that is, the new joint cinema chain in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai has begun to go to Xiangjiang to look for film sources!
Wu Jianye doesn't have any objections to this. He doesn't want to dominate the world. If New United Cinemas can take the lead in bringing the domestic cinema market to distribution companies in other regions and create a successful case, he will also be very happy.
.
After the two of them finished talking, Wu Jianye also returned to the courtyard!
A few days later, Hou Sihai, Hu Yuejin and others also received feedback from China Film and Radio and Television. They knew that it would not work to ask official officials to make a fuss. Now they can only hope that the film with Zhang Jianya can give them
Brought a tonic!
The joint loan from several major issuing companies to Shanghai Standard Chartered Bank has also entered a formal process. The loan of 18 million was disbursed to their joint account in less than a week!
But when the money was actually approved, Hou Sihai and others had disagreements again.
According to Hou Sihai's idea, all the 18 million should be invested in the lottery for new films, but managers of distribution companies in many regions have put forward different opinions.
They are short of money!
In other words, when they suddenly saw so much money, their original lofty ideals were no longer so strong. At this time, their mentality of worrying about gains and losses suddenly appeared.
Hou Sihai looked at the general managers who did not want to take the money into the lottery and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, there is something I need to say first. Although this money is applied for in the name of our United Cinemas,
Loan, but it is also evaluated according to the size of each company. Before the loan, we have an agreement. If any company cannot get the loan in the end, the responsibility will fall on you.
On the head!"
"To put it simply, if the loan is not repaid by then and Standard Chartered Bank wants to recover the funds, everyone will have to take out their mortgaged things. Don't think that we are a state-owned enterprise.
You don’t need to repay the loan, and I don’t need to tell you that Standard Chartered Bank must be well-connected at the top if the country can relax financial controls and enter the country!”
Hou Sihai doesn't need to tell you how strong domestic financial control is, these people also know it.
Everyone laughed, and Sun Xiaowei said: "Mr. Hou, don't worry, we know how to do it!"
Hou Sihai said: "The best thing is this. After the release of "Sanmao Joins the Army" this time, everyone will eat in the same pot. I hope everyone can still focus on the overall situation!"
In the end, these people happily divided the eighteen million and went back to their respective cities.
Sun Xiaowei also returned to Denying.
"Manager, how's it going? Have you got the money?" Sun Xiaowei's assistant, Tian Baoliang, came to Sun Xiaowei's office and said excitedly.
Sun Xiaowei showed a complicated smile on his face and said: "I got the money, but everyone is watching how to use the money!"
Sun Xiaowei's idea was naturally that he didn't want to use all the money for a lottery. They also divided one million!
Tian Baoliang chuckled and said: "Mr. Sun, actually if you want to keep this money in our own hands, there is still a way!"
Sun Xiaowei's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "What can I do?"
Tian Baoliang sat opposite Sun Xiaowei, carefully glanced at the closed wooden door of the office, and then whispered: "Let me tell you, we should use this money as a lottery."
Sun Xiaowei said dissatisfied: "Isn't this the same as you didn't say anything?"
Tian Baoliang said: "Don't worry. Since it's a lottery, it's up to us to decide who wins the prize?"
Sun Xiaowei thought for a moment, then immediately smiled: "Haha, yes, you are still smart, but this matter must be kept secret. It would be bad if others knew about it!"
Tian Baoliang said: "Don't worry about this!"
In fact, there are definitely not a few people who think like Sun Xiaowei...
The establishment of the new United Cinemas was originally a helpless move, but now everyone is not united and it is difficult to make it happen...
.......
No matter what Sun Xiaowei and others plan to do in the subsequent lottery, distribution companies in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai have already begun to warm up for the release of "Sanmao Joins the Army".
Their movie-watching lottery was officially launched, and a large billboard stood in front of their cinema.
This kind of behavior in the ring has naturally aroused the interest of many people. At this time, everyone is looking forward to the day of September 30th.
The happiest people among them are actually the leaders of Shanghai Film Studio!
In fact, when Hou Sihai and others decided to learn from Fengge Cinema Online, they had already contacted Shanghai Film Studio, hoping that Shanghai Film Studio could join them in this movie-watching lottery.
To put it simply, let them also pay a sum of money!
As a result, Shanghai Film Studio made it clear that it had no money!
Shanghai Film Studio is not stupid either. Now Fengge Cinema has suddenly emerged in the country and belongs to the category of Dragon Crossing the River. They do not want to get involved in this confrontation between Fengge Cinema and United Cinemas.
Shanghai Film Studio is also watching the development of Fengge Cinemas. If the movie "The World of Chu Xing" directed by Wu Jianye can achieve good box office at Fengge Cinemas, then they will also hope to cooperate with Fengge Cinemas.
.
Naturally, I don't want to get into this dispute.
This is almost unimaginable in later generations. In later generations, it was more of a battle between producers, allowing theaters to benefit from it, but now it has become a dispute between theaters, with producers reaping the benefits!
However, Shanghai Film Studio did not make concessions, and their share of money with United Cinemas also deviated.
Originally, they were planning to implement two rounds of distribution in accordance with international practice. The first round will last for four months, with Shanghai Film Studio accounting for 60% of the distribution revenue and United Cinemas accounting for 40% of the distribution revenue!
Four months after the premiere, Shanghai Film Studio accounted for 42% of distribution revenue, and United Cinemas accounted for 58% of distribution revenue.
But this time, because United Cinemas learned from Fengge Cinemas and held a movie-watching lottery, they changed the previous sharing agreement.
During the first four months of release, Shanghai Film Studio only accounted for 45% of the distribution revenue, while United Cinemas accounted for 55% of the distribution revenue. Four months later, Shanghai Film Studio accounted for 40% of the distribution revenue, while United Cinemas accounted for 40% of the distribution revenue.
60% of the issuance proceeds.
Distribution companies in other parts of the country are also waiting to see the situation here. They also want to see whether the fierce dragon will cross the river, or whether the strong dragon will not overwhelm the local snake!
It can be said that this showdown between Fengge Cinemas and United Cinemas will affect the original domestic structure!
At this time, even the media was paying attention to this matter.
Wu Jianye finally accepted an exclusive interview with "Popular Films" at this time.
In this exclusive interview, a reporter from "Popular Cinema" asked Wu Jianye about the movie viewing lottery.
"Director Wu, we all know now that for your movie "The World of Chu Xing", Fengge Cinema has specially launched a movie-watching lottery. What do you think of this lottery? Many people are saying now,
Such a lottery activity is of a gambling nature, do you have anything to say about this statement?"
The location of the exclusive interview is in Tangting Culture, Wu Jianye’s office!
Wu Jianye sat on the sofa and said with a smile: "The funds for the movie viewing lottery launched by Fengge Cinemas this time are jointly borne by our Tangting Culture and Fengge Cinemas. As for our opinions, we naturally support it, otherwise we will
Tangting Culture will not contribute any money. In my opinion, watching movies is a matter of pleasure for the body and mind. If you can also get prizes while enjoying the pleasure of the body and mind, wouldn’t that be a great thing?"
"As for some people saying that this is a gambling lottery, I don't agree. In my opinion, this is just to stimulate the domestic film market. Now the number of moviegoers in our country is decreasing by hundreds of millions every year.
, if you want to bring these lost audiences back to the cinema, you must use some means!"
Wu Jianye did not hide anything about his plan.
The reporter continued to ask: "Then what do you think about the fact that the United Cinemas in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai also launched movie viewing lottery activities?"
"This is a matter for United Cinemas. I have no right to comment, but our Tangting Culture welcomes all challenges!"
Wu Jianye then brought the topic to "Chu Xing's World" and continued to answer reporters' questions!
