Chapter 747 Let’s Fight!

According to the calculations in the United States, Gao Fenfen is considered an entertainment family, and her relatives are basically within the system.

There are people from TV stations and studios. Anyway, judging from her identity and background, she is worthy of being in the spotlight...

However, within the system, there is basically a mentality that it is better to resolve enemies than to make enemies.

"Your "Painted Skin" has almost earned 100 million, so China Film's last Hollywood blockbuster at this time is in line with market requirements."

"Besides, it wasn't released during the National Day holiday, it was released after the National Day holiday."

"You also have to be considerate of Yingying's work. They are responsible for the release of twenty imported blockbusters every year..."

A lecture...

Gao Fenfen was very dissatisfied.

Yes, China Film is responsible for introducing overseas imported films and arranging schedules.

It cannot squeeze the living space of domestic films too much, nor can it cause excessive complaints from the audience.

In fact, whether overseas imported films can be introduced depends on one criterion: whether they can sell well.

Because our current film market data is linked to political performance.

It is necessary not only to ensure data, but also to ensure that the share of imported films cannot exceed 50%.

From this perspective, it is actually quite normal to release an imported film during the period when Painted Skin is in theaters.

But...from Goffenfen's point of view, this is deliberately targeted.

Just say, ‘If you don’t help me, I will do it myself! ’

'Don't worry, I'll go ask about the situation...'

…

When Shen Xudong arrived at the company, Chen Xi was already standing at the door and immediately greeted him. Shen Xudong asked: "What's the situation with "Wanted Order"?"

"Universal's action film... costs $75 million to produce... starring James McAvoy, Morgan Freeman, and Angelina Jolie..."

Shen Xudong shook his head: "Don't tell me what I know...I heard this is an R-rated movie. Why can it be released in China?"

"It's normal. With just a wave of scissors, it can be enjoyed by all ages..."

Well, this is not the first time that a North American R-rated film has been released in China...

In fact, "The Passion of the Christ" and "The Matrix" have both been released in China

What was the first R-rated film introduced in China?

You may not have expected that it is actually Jackie Chan's "Red Zone"...

Hearing this, Shen Xudong stopped and said, "So we can't fault China Film for choosing this time to release "Wanted"?"

"Yes!"

"...Then let them come..."

"Huh? We don't do anything?"

Shen Xudong asked: "What can we do?"

"President Gao just wanted to hold a press conference to denounce China Film's domineering behavior..."

Shen Xudong couldn't help but be happy: "Mr. Gao probably has never been so wronged in his life..."

"Yes, she has always been the only one who bullies others, but now she is being..."

"Let's go and persuade her..."

The two of them got on the elevator, went directly into Gao Fenfen's office, knocked on the door, and then went in. Gao Fenfen was on the phone. From the tone of her voice, she must be her elder. Her attitude was quite respectful...

Shen Xudong and Chen Xi waited for a while. Gao Fenfen hung up the phone and said directly: "I have an uncle who said that he will criticize Han Shanping internally. Even if he wants to take action in the future, it won't be so obvious!"

Chen Xi quickly asked: "What about this time?"

Gao Fenfen: "It's all released, and it's impossible to withdraw it... But as an apology, all digital theaters have scheduled "Painted Skin"!"

"Lower your head?"

"Um…"

"Actually, I don't want to fight with China Film..." Shen Xudong said honestly: "In the past few years, domestic films have maintained a box office share of about 55%. Although these contributions cannot all be attributed to Han Shanping, as the actual chief executive of China Film He has dominant film market resources in his hands, so he is directly related to the development of domestic films. In a sense, he definitely contributes to the domestic film market..."

This is a fact. American blockbusters were introduced and screened by the China Film Group. From a toddler stage, Chinese films have gradually become competitive with Hollywood blockbusters. China Film Group has definitely contributed a lot...

It is really possible to be killed by an American blockbuster!

Gao Fenfen frowned: "So, you mean to reconcile just like that?"

"Reconciliation? Who said we need to reconcile?"

Shen Xudong asked: "Is "Wanted" scheduled to be released by China Film on October 9th? Didn't you tell us in advance? With 800 copies, the distribution scale is calculated based on the box office exceeding 100 million, right?"

"and you…"

"That's what I said, we must fight when we should fight... Hey, China Film seems to have a blockbuster this year, right?"

""Red Cliff" (Part 2)?"

"I'm going to play "Red Cliff" with "The Tuner" and "Taking Tiger Mountain Out of Wise". What about "Red Cliff"?"

Chen Xi thought for a while and immediately said: "There is another "Mei Lanfang", which is also the main investment of China Film..."

""Mei Lanfang"... When will "Mei Lanfang" be released?"

"Let me check!" Gao Fenfen immediately dialed the number of the distribution department, then raised his head: "They said December 12th..."

"December 12th..." Shen Xudong thought for a moment and said directly: "Then let "Ip Man" be released on December 6th and "If You Are the One" on December 15th...don't leave any space for it!"

Hearing Shen Xudong's plan, Chen Xi was a little worried: "...Is it too cruel?"

Shen Xudong asked back: "... Then he arranged for "The Incredible Hulk" to be released on the same day as "The Incredibles", wouldn't it be cruel?"

Gao Fenfen agreed very much with Shen Xudong's approach: "That's right, we finally left three days for "Mei Lanfang"!"

Chen Xi was still a little worried: "But..."

Before she could speak, Shen Xudong deliberately asked, "No, why do I feel that you look down on Brother Chen Kai?"

"…No."

"Then how do you know that "Ip Man" and "If You Are the One" can successfully intercept "Mei Lanfang"? What if Brother Chen Kai performs exceptionally and brings another "Farewell My Concubine"?"

Gao Fenfen also helped: "That's right, "Mei Lanfang" is the Peking Opera theme that Director Chen is best at. Just in case..."

Speaking of this, she glanced at Shen Xudong: "Did you watch the internal preview of "Mei Lanfang"?"

"No!"

"Then how dare you intercept with two movies?"

Shen Xudong looked confident: "...Don't worry, a movie with director Chen Da's normal performance will not be much higher at the box office, and the reputation will not be much better!"

Chen Xi was still a little worried: "What if another "Farewell My Concubine" is really produced..."

"It's a blessing for all the viewers if it's actually filmed..."

…

How did Shen Xudong know that "Mei Lanfang" would not be a hit?

Haha, because he has memory!

Moreover, even without the memory bonus, director Chen Da's last film "The Promise" failed so badly that the market has completely distrusted him.

In the original time and space, "Mei Lanfang" worked hard, but at least the box office exceeded 100 million...

This time, Shen Xudong has two movies next to each other, I don’t believe he can still break 100 million!

In addition, "Red Cliff (Part 2)" is confirmed to be released on January 8th, then "The Tuner" will be released on January 3rd, and "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" will be released on January 12th...

Chen Xi frowned when he saw this arrangement: "The interval between "The Tuner" and "Taking Tiger Mountain" is only 9 days? The interval between "If You Are the One" is only 15 days?"
