Domestic encounters huge resistance in the entertainment industry, which cannot be overcome at once. Xiao Kaitian's Qingtang Tianxia background is insufficient, and it is his first time to enter the entertainment industry. This is not just a matter of funds.
All stable business circles have their own set of inherent operating principles. A movie, starting from the investors, to the director team, post-production, publicity and distribution, and theater channels, all involve the distribution of profit proportions.
Chen Jingming himself screams louder, and the packaging of Tang Dynasty is in place. Before the market feedback is fully witnessed, it will be difficult to convince theaters to increase the number of films.
Not to mention that the theaters of the Han and Tang dynasties currently have a good relationship with Su's Pictures. In terms of reputation, director Li Qiuping, Chen Jingming's old rival, is still suppressing it. The difficulties of "Above the Sky" are also obvious.
Xiao Kaitian has set his sights on overseas markets. This is something worth discussing, but it does not mean that this group of elites who love the Tang Dynasty will easily give up the market of the Han and Tang Dynasties. After all, the foothold of movies is still local.
If this matter is not handled well, if the film is released abroad first, it is likely to be labeled as a sensitive foreigner. The audience will not pay attention to the difficulties of film distribution. What they see will always be the result.
This was something that Xiao Kaitian knew very well, but Xiao Kaitian didn't point it out, but this group of elites exchanged glances with each other, and everyone knew it.
Everyone began to contribute their own network power, even a little bit, to fight for the movie.
"Old Tang, do you have time recently? Yes... don't say that..."
"I know that under current circumstances, it is very difficult to become popular. As long as we have a draft, the requirements are not high."
"The movie is definitely a good movie. I can guarantee this. It is a masterpiece directed by Chen Jingming. I think... hello... Manager Liu, Manager Liu?"
A group of people were all on the phone vigorously. Tang Tian's eyes sank slightly. She left the conference room and made a call on the balcony.
"Amy, I'm Tang Tian, let's make an appointment." After the call was connected, she went straight to the point.
"Xiaotian," the female voice on the other end of the phone said with a bit of helplessness: "I know what you want to say. We have known each other for many years, and I have said it bluntly. This movie of your company is actually in a state of internal ban.
"
"Su's Pictures and Li Qiuping have made rumors privately. Whoever cooperates with you will not consider the future relationship. You can understand what I say."
"I think you know all the circles here. The entertainment industry has inherent operating rules. Profit sharing cannot be changed by funds or random manipulations."
"I understand everything you said," Tang Tian looked through the glass door at the busy colleagues in the conference room: "As you said, I just want to meet and chat with you."
"The movie doesn't require you to make any promises, but after all, it's my company's product, so I still want to fight for it."
"I think as a native of Haidu, you should be aware of the recent developments in Qingtang World. This is my greatest confidence in finding you."
The other party was shaken by this last statement. Just as Tang Tian said, others may not know the value of dumping Tang Tianxia, but people in Haidu know it clearly.
Putting aside the high-tech products that are high in the clouds, the real estate in the Future Century Project alone is now one of the most high-end areas in Haidu, and it has maintained good cooperation with the two local governments of Haidu Port City.
, I heard that it also has a military background in the Han and Tang Dynasties.
"Okay, let's just meet." After receiving a positive reply, Tang Tian took a breath and put her phone in her pocket.
It was night in an inconspicuous coffee shop in Haidu. Tang Tian was wearing a red turtleneck sweater. She opened the glass door and saw a woman in a ladies suit sitting at the corner table. She waved her hand: "Xiao Tian."
.”
"Want a cup of Geisha," Tang Tian nodded to the waiter. She put down the bag in her hand, sat down and brushed her hair: "Amy, thank you very much for agreeing to meet."
"Otherwise," the woman in front of her had slight fish scales on her eyes. She closed the book in her hand with a smile: "Tell me."
"You should have heard from dad that I joined Qingtang Tianxia." Tang Tian did not hesitate. She likes to get straight to the point: "I am looking for you because you are from Wanda Film and Television Department. When it comes to arranging films, you can speak the right words.
.”
"There is absolutely no problem with the movie. If such a sincere work cannot be properly broadcast in the Han and Tang Dynasties, I think it will be a big loss for the Han and Tang entertainment circles."
Amy laughed when she heard this. She held her chin with her hands and watched Tang Tian's wonderful "performance": "I think I made it clear on the phone about the current situation. Xiaotian, this is not the time to be willful."
"It's not willful." Tang Tian took her handbag, took out a mobile hard drive, and pushed it over: "This is a movie. Watch it. As a professional, I believe you can make your own correct judgment."
"If you feel that the movie has no market value after watching it, then I won't say anything. If it's the opposite, then I hope you can help me with the Wanda channel. Even if you strive for 1% of the film scheduling rate, I will accept it.
.”
In contrast to the busy street outside the window, under the slightly dim light inside the coffee shop, two beauties refused to give in and stared into each other's eyes.
"Xiaotian, you have changed a lot." After a long time, Amy sighed: "I can see a bit of your father in you."
"I know how to watch movies. After all, Wanda Pictures is also a profit-oriented enterprise, and no one will have trouble with money. But I still say that the Lunar New Year schedule is really too tight."
"In this case, have you considered avoiding the Lunar New Year period and switching to the Spring Festival period?" Amy gave a suggestion: "A good movie is not afraid of 'burying' some time."
Tang Tian analyzed it calmly, and she didn't mind revealing the decision just made by the company's top management: "Actually, what we are considering is to publish it overseas first, and then in the Han and Tang Dynasties to use overseas reputation to drive domestic demand."
"It seems okay at first glance," Amy immediately shook her head: "There will be many problems and it is not a good choice. If you really want to implement it, I suggest that the overseas release time be postponed by at least two hours."
"The emotions of domestic audiences must still be taken into consideration."
This was very professional guidance and analysis. Tang Diantian made a mental note that she would give back the results of today's meeting.
"That's it," Amy pointed to the coffee in front of Tang Tian: "I will contact you after I watch the movie and make a decision."
Tang Tian breathed a sigh of relief. It was better to have hope than nothing. She rarely started to talk about her family: "Speaking of which, you and my father have no plans to get married."
"Ignore this for now," Amy smiled and stirred the coffee spoon: "Some relationships don't require marriage."
