Chapter 1414 Trial Cooperation
After the filming of "Rain Man" was completed, all that was left was post-production.
Because the overall shooting intensity was not high, Yin Jun was editing and checking for omissions during the shooting process.
Therefore, the plot of "Rain Man" has been completely arranged, and the finished product will basically be released on the day it is completed.
After another two days of busy work, Yin Jun finished the first cut and handed it over to the post-production staff, asking them to refine the film, complete and fix some small details, as well as the soundtrack, etc., and almost a month, the entire movie will be completed.
Of course, this is the making of the movie itself.
Next, there are movie release arrangements and various promotions.
But these are not Yin Jun's business. Naturally, there are very professional people to announce them.
During the filming of the movie, the boy stayed in the hotel with the crew and basically didn't care about other company affairs.
Unless there was something particularly urgent, Le Yiling, Tang Shuxuan and the others would not bother Yin Jun.
But when he finished his work and returned to Teresa Teng's villa to accompany his wife and daughter, one thing after another happened.
Before the Spring Festival, when Yin Jun went to the opening ceremony of the White Swan Hotel, he talked about Xiangjiang Entertainment Movies with Mr. Rui Chengzhi, No. 1 of the Guangdong Municipal Government.
At that time, Rui Chengzhi mentioned that a Xiangjiang film pilot would be implemented in Guangdong.
Yin Jun still thought that the trip would have to be postponed to the second half of the year, or the end of the year.
Unexpectedly, when he returned home, he saw a fax sent by Le Yiling a few days ago, telling him that the Guangdong Municipal Government had issued guidance and asked the Cultural Affairs Bureau and the Broadcasting Bureau to select ten urban cinemas. , as a broadcasting place for the introduction of Xiangjiang movies.
The conditions negotiated between Qilin Film and Guangdong are simple.
The first is that it must be reviewed by the General Administration before it can be played.
The second is to divide it into 442, with 40% for Kirin Film, 40% for cinemas, and 20% for the General Administration Film Culture Fund.
The billing period is not very procrastinating. The billing period is once every month after the release, and it can be screened in theaters for up to three months.
This kind of sharing ratio is still very good for Qilin Movies.
Usually when sharing overseas, Xiangjiang Film can only get 30%, or even less, or they can just buy it out at a low price and make money themselves.
That is to say, only if Qilin Movies has been successful in recent years can it ensure that its share ratio is no less than 30%.
It was my first time to come to the mainland for development. Originally, Qilin Film was prepared for a share ratio of 30% to 2.50%. Unexpectedly, Guangdong Province was so kind and gave 40%.
It makes sense to give 40% to movie theaters. After all, their operation also requires a lot of costs.
But the last one, the General Administration Film Culture Fund, left the people of Qilin Film baffled.
Yin Jun also found it funny.
If he remembers it correctly, the General Administration's Film Culture Fund should have only become a regulation in the 1990s.
None before.
But I didn't expect that now I would appear in the first Hong Kong film split cooperation.
The person in charge of negotiations at Qilin Film knew what Yin Jun was thinking. Although he felt strange, he didn't bother with it. Seeing that his own interests could be guaranteed, he signed the contract.
Then they sent 20 movies in one go and sent them to Huajing for review.
Because the situation in Hong Kong has been a bit tense recently, the mainland obviously wants to ease this relationship, and the Kirin Group is a force that is actively fighting for it. The General Administration should have also received relevant instructions, and the review was completed in just one week. , released 15 movies, which greatly exceeded Qilin Film’s expectations.
Yin Jun was also surprised when he saw that there was actually "Speed of Life and Death" in it.
But after thinking about it more, Yin Jun felt relieved.
In fact, many people don't know that Chinese films were quite popular in the 1980s.
I don’t know how many of the movie themes that were shot at that time would be rejected now.
But it happened to be filmed and released at that time, so the box office of movies in the 1980s was very high, and there was a reason why people liked to go to the movies.
After the review of the film is completed, it will take a while for Guangdong to arrange its release, but in any case, it is a good thing to take the first step.
There is actually another advantage to showing in Guangdong. Many Cantonese movies can be brought to the original version and they can understand them, which saves a lot of trouble.
…
There is progress in movies, and there is also progress in music.
With the success of Zhang Mingxuan, Luo Jialiang and Kuang Yuyun's tour in March, and receiving HK$2 million in dividends, many singers in Hong Kong are interested in holding concerts in the mainland.
To be precise, the three- to four-hour concerts in which one person sings throughout the entire venue, which is very formal in later generations, are not very popular in Xiangjiang now.
Including Teresa Teng, Xu Xiaofeng, Luo Wen and others who sang on the Lee stage in the past few years, the performance usually lasts about two hours.
Kylin TV has created a new joint concert format, which is a group of singers going out together, seven or eight or more than a dozen people, to complete a three- to four-hour concert.
As long as this kind of concert lasts enough times, it will definitely make money and everyone will not be tired.
Now this model has entered the mainland. The three of them joined forces to hold a concert, and 20 concerts were sold out. In the end, they earned 2 million yuan. This is a huge demonstration effect.
Some singers, or some celebrities, are not professional singers, but they like singing and are willing to make money singing.
If you can go out and hold concerts in groups to make money, and earn tens of millions from ten or twenty concerts in a row, it would be really good.
The economy in Xiangjiang is in a slump right now!
In the past, you could get up to 30,000 or 50,000 yuan for singing a song in a large nightclub such as Monopoly, but now you can only get a few thousand or ten thousand, and you can only get famous singers.
Many singers and celebrities couldn't let go of this shame and simply stopped going.
The mainland market is a bit unfamiliar to them, but since it is hosted by Yin Jun, and Yin Jun is well-established in the mainland, there should be no problem.
Recently, the phone calls of Zhang Mingxuan and the three of them have been almost inundated with inquiries about the situation of public security, environment, etc. in the mainland.
After receiving accurate answers, many singers and celebrities were eager to give it a try.
As early as April, Kirin Records received applications from more than 20 singers and celebrities, saying that if they went to perform in the mainland, they would like to participate.
Huang Bogao is very confident now. He has said to the outside world that the first thing he will consider is the stars and singers under Qilin Culture. As for the people outside, they have to wait.
The second batch of singers he organized had a much larger lineup than the previous Spring Festival trio.
First of all, its two most powerful players, Tan Yonglin and Chen Baiqiang, are both going.
If Zhang Guorong hadn't already made preparations to hold six concerts in Canada and the United States, Zhang Guorong would have been invited as well.
Next, a well-known star to mainlanders, Yu Zhan Zhaohui Tianci is going, his sister Hui Yinghong, also known as Zhao Qiannan in "Fearless", is also going, and ATV's Chen Zhen and Liang Xiaolong are also going...
Coupled with some talented singing stars from Kylin Records and Kylin TV, a total of 13 singers and actors participated.
That is to say, "Chu Liuxiang" was not broadcast in the mainland, and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was not broadcast, otherwise the lineup this time would be even stronger.
Speaking of which, these two TV series are still unable to be broadcast in the mainland.
Because from August of this year to the end of 1986, a massive campaign against crime will be launched. During this period, movies and TV series that contain violent scenes will generally be strictly censored.
I'm afraid it would be more difficult for something with the scale of Xiangjiang.
This is why Yin Jun asked Chen Shufen to lead the singers and try to start the second round of tour in June.
I will go to the mainland in June and return to Hong Kong in early August at the latest, just in time to complete the second round of tour perfectly without running into trouble.
Just like the rapid approval of movie pilots, after the first round of concerts with positive results, the second round of review was approved in May.
This time, the 35-tour tour is scheduled in 15 cities. In addition to the 10 cities last time, five cities including Fengtian, Luojing, Chang'an, Wuhan, and Minzhou have been added. It can be regarded as the whole country of China. All the big cities with good economic development were swept away.
The mainland is really lacking in popular entertainment.
We only had 20 concert tours in March, and now we are back three months later, and all the tickets for every concert were sold out immediately.
Especially in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, this time there are 5 concerts in each city, which is logically enough.
But the fans are still enthusiastic enough, beyond imagination.
For example, in Huajing, when ticket sales started, people started queuing up at 12 o'clock the night before. By 9 o'clock the next morning, more than 5,000 people were already queuing up. This queue scared the police and quickly mobilized a large number of manpower. Maintain order.
Of course, everyone at Kirin Records knows that no matter how popular the concert is, it won't make much money.
Only the "concert collection" sold together with the concerts is the biggest moneymaker.
The songs on the second tour were much more than what the three of them sang the first time, almost 100 songs - in cities where several shows are held in a row, you can't sing the same song every night, right? You still have to take turns singing. And every city has to be different, otherwise it will be the same, and what’s the point in hearing it?
As a result, 10 tapes of the best collection recorded by various singers were recorded and delivered to Kirin Records Factory in early May.
The factories in Lin'an are gearing up and working hard in three shifts to strive for another sales peak!
