Chapter 17 Good guy! (1/6)
"The Legend of the Gods" is definitely a bad movie, and it's a final decision!
Unlike "Wuji", there are people who help to cleanse the floor - how can a country that is almost mostly illiterate, in an ancient agricultural country that has experienced many hardships, has not had much real education and enlightenment, and lacks artistic literacy cultivation, can appreciate a pioneering and profound work!
What is the significance of "The Legend of the Gods"?
Is the love for my son deeply in love with my uncle?
It is said that "The Legend of the Gods" is a drama by Yu Dong intercepting Hu Huayi - a guaranteed release of 1 billion yuan!
Can you understand this guarantee?
In fact, just looking at the cast, 1 billion guaranteed is absolutely fine - 1 Li Lianjie, Fan Xiaopang, Gu Tianfeng, Liang Jiahui, Wen Zhang, Yang Tianbao, Huang Zhu...
All-star luxury lineup!
At the Shanghai Film Festival before, Yu Dong said confidently: "I think there is no suspense for this year's summer championship. It must be our "Legend of the Gods"!"
"I hope "The Legend of the Gods" can break 2.5 billion and break the summer box office record of "Big Man 2". Then I hope Boss Shen will shoot another movie "Big Man 3" to surpass our "The Legend of the Gods", so that everyone will be even!"
——Yes, "Big Man 2" is the current summer champion, exceeding the 1.5 billion "Monster Hunt"...
After all, it will definitely lose a little box office if it is released in the same period...
Boss Yu has been in this industry for so long, can’t he see how good or bad a drama is?
Still a bit blindly superstitious about the so-called big data!
The investors behind "The Legend of the Gods" include Ali Pictures and iQiyi Pictures.
BAT, the blessings of both families!
Taopiaopiao spent 40 million to make a subsidy!
"Investiture of the Gods" itself is a big IP!
Such a movie with big IP + big production + big stars, a typical blockbuster temperament...
It is normal to bet on big selling.
I guess he didn't watch "The Legend of the Gods", otherwise he wouldn't have bet on the first male lead in "The Legend of the Gods", not Jiang Ziya, not Ji Fa, nor King Zhou, but Lei Zhenzi!
That’s right, “The Legend of the Gods” is used to support your son!
...
Shen Mengxi doesn’t pay attention to this movie - a bad movie, what’s there to care about?
Screening, quality, distribution, publicity, and audience expectations are all inferior to the latter...
But Zhong Lifang was quite worried. After all, the super invincible big movie "The White-Haired Witch: The Moon Empire" two years ago won nearly 400 million yuan. What's the thing?
“…The information circulation is too fast now, and it is difficult to get mainstream audiences to buy tickets by relying solely on the lineup!”
"I know, but they are ready to spend money on tickets without limit!"
Shen Mengxi shook her head: "It's useless, I'm too lazy. Not to mention spending money on the ticket, even if I give it money for free, few people are willing to go and see it!"
Zhong Lifang was a little suspicious: "Not it..."
"You will know if you ask Song Hang..."
Zhong Lifang called Song Hang...
The latter is on a business trip - attending the summer promotion conference...
Shen Mengxi vaguely heard words such as 'It's so bad' and 'Super Invincible Big Movie', and then Zhong Lifang hung up the phone and said: "It's probably because Hua Yi chose to withdraw his investment because the movie was too bad..."
"You're thinking too much. In this drama, Huayi Brothers first cooperated with 360 and planned to invest in China Star together. However, 360 has launched the person in charge of film and television... Huayi Brothers don't have that much money..."
“360 internal anti-corruption?”
Shen Mengxi frowned: "...Can you, the executive CEO, care about us?"
Zhong Lifang quickly explained: "They said last year that they wanted to enter the film and television industry, and then there was no movement in March this year. How could I care?"
This is true. Didn’t you write it before? 360 and Light prepared to watch the movie network first - the Chinese version of Netflix, and then, for some reasons, completely withdrew from the film and television sector and completed Huajiao Live...
The root cause is that the 360 film and television sector is aggregation, with 360 traffic as support behind it. Every year, with almost no cost, you can get a lot of advertising revenue and your cash flow is quite good. Look at the Internet first and you need to buy the copyright!
To create a Chinese version of Netflix, huge copyright procurement funds and strong self-control capabilities are required!
Let me add a sentence, Huajiao live broadcast...
A mess!
The 360 company has never had a bottom line and is good at suffering consumption and commercial hype.
After Lao Qiao passed away, Huajiao Live sent someone to do a live broadcast of tracking and reporting, and chased him from the deceased's house to the Longhua Funeral Home in Shanghai to dig deep into the explosion point.
During the Baoqiang divorce incident, Huajiao Live also used this hot topic to hype...
I was caught up in a scandal about pornography at a very early stage and was named by the Cyberspace Administration of China many times...
Of course, after 18 years, live broadcast platforms have been impacted to varying degrees - mainly because of the rise of short videos. After 18 years, the DAU of the short video industry has an average daily start-up and a daily daily usage time for users to beat the live broadcast field!
Chen Mengxi changed the topic: "…Have the copyright of "Winter and Lion" been discussed?"
"Don't worry, once Lan Xiaolong finishes writing, he will contact me as soon as possible!"
"That's good!"
Zhong Lifang looked at him: "Is it difficult to pass the review of "Winter and the Lion"?"
"Winter and the Lion", a film project written by Lan Xiaolong, a war drama set against the Battle of Changjin Lake during the Korean War...
——Later renamed "Changjin Lake"…
"There is nothing wrong with passing the trial, it depends on who will submit it to the trial!"
...
"3 billion cost...will that cost 9 billion?"
Chen Mengxi and Liu Yifei talked about the "Fengshen Trilogy"...
"Yes... I'm very hesitant!"
"Can you find some overseas remedies?"
"Who knows..."
There is a high probability that it is impossible - the power of the King of Virus is unimaginable!
Sighing, he continued, "First of all, I thought about winning 5 billion box offices before a movie was launched!"
"Secondly, I don't particularly agree with the so-called universal values. I think "The Investiture of God" is a sect dispute... In comparison, I want to film "The Buddha is the Tao" more!"
"Then do you want to make a shot?"
“Think about it…”
The young lady asked curiously: "Wu Ershan is the director you brought up. Don't you invest?"
"No, I have my own arrangements about the deity..."
What arrangement is, of course, the Fen Shen Animation Universe!
If it is IP-linked development, Chen Mengxi will definitely prefer animated movies. There is nothing else, and the surrounding area will be more sold!
Chen Mengxi is still considering this place, and Beijing Culture, Wanda Film, Ali Film and Television, and iQiyi have found Wu Ershan...
what?
Give him money!
...
If Chen Mengxi was not a reborn person, he would probably work hard to increase his investment like many capital parties!
In the first three months of 2016, it hit a box office of 14 billion!
Among them, the three movies, "Mermaid", "Hotpot Heroes" and "Zootopia" jointly achieved a box office of 6.5 billion!
"Three Fights of the Bone Spirit" and "Macau Storm 3" both exceeded 1.1 billion!
Adding to the 1.02 billion "Kung Fu Panda 3"...
The market is very good!
In a word: Cook oil in the fire, flowers are in the brocade!
Wu Ershan's "The Investiture of the Gods" has been talked about in 10 years...
Chen Mengxi asked him to be busy with the "Painted Skin" series first, and then arranged for him "The Dragon Search"...
All sold out!
But the investment of 3 billion is still a little hesitant...
He hesitated, the opportunity for other investors in technology!
When Wu Ershan heard that Ali Film was about to pay 1.5 billion, she was stunned...
Chapter completed!
