In the Beginning, I Just Wanted to Make Money

Chapter 909 Refutation

"Pi" is indeed a rare masterpiece!

Even if Shen Xudong doesn't like Li An, he has to admit that this movie is quite perfect...

Perfection means that the graphics, plot, and special effects complement each other.

Many people commented that this movie is as beautiful as poetry - subtle, graceful, and a blend of scenes.

Indeed!

The rhythm is really great, it's leisurely, neither impatient nor procrastinating, noisy nor dull.

There is no sense of stiffness in the turning point, it all comes naturally, without even the usual calculations in Li Min's movies!

——"Brokeback Mountain" is a very calculating movie!

It has the popcorn attributes of a commercial film and the artistry of an art film.

However, after "Pi", I don't know why, Li Min became obsessed with the research on shooting technology. The recent "Gemini Man" showed the 120-frame image shooting technology, but the core of the movie is always the plot of the movie. and characters!

The story is not good, and no matter how advanced the technology is, the entire movie is just superficial!

In fact, most viewers watch movies just to pass the time, or to go to the theater to preview them, not out of appreciation for art...

It doesn't matter how Huang Zhonglei and Zhao Jun talked about it. After Shen Xudong watched "Cold War", who was the winner? ”, couldn’t help but post on Weibo: “It’s easy to have a high position and give guidance, but it’s up to people to do the specific things. If movies are so easy to make, then why are there only a few profitable ones every year?”

"Also, 'Instead of staring at each other's share ratio, we should think about how to win back the audience with better movies.'... This question is like asking me, 'Why don't you eat meat porridge!'..."

"The division of accounts is unreasonable, why can't we keep an eye on it? Can we improve the quality of the movie if we don't keep an eye on the division of accounts?"

"Sometimes I really feel that many of the comments in the "Daily News" are of no standard at all. The articles write about peaceful things and refuse to bow their heads to the common people!"

"Do you know what a 2% account sharing ratio means? A movie with a cost of 50 million and a box office of 145 million, a 2% account sharing ratio represents whether it is profitable or not!"

"If I don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate". The box office was 624 million, which looks very high. The split is 252 million. After deducting the cost of nearly 40 million US dollars, the mainland revenue and profit is only 14 million, 2% more. We can charge more More than 20 million!"

"Without this 2%, it would be difficult for us to make the decision to make high-cost movies!"

"It doesn't hurt to stand up and say it. Let me tell you, if I just want to make money, I can definitely join Hollywood and stop making Chinese-language movies. Anyway, it will be split globally and the audience will like it!"

"The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, which was released at the beginning of the month, has a global box office of US$800 million. We have also invested in it. Let me tell you clearly that the revenue share of this movie exceeds our company's revenue in the first eleven months..."

"I really don't understand why you are so harsh on the producers... Are you satisfied that all the theaters are showing are Hollywood movies? You don't understand the film industry so you can shut up!"

"I really can't hold it in anymore. Sometimes I really want to say something, but I don't dare to say it. I'll take advantage of my drinking power and say: I don't expect you to provide professional advice, but can you not hold me back? If you have that time, can you Care about housing prices, care about education, medical care, focus on the film industry, what are you looking at? Do you understand?"

Directly x-on:Zhao Jun and Gao Jun…

It’s still sane and there are no x-on:second-rate newspapers…

Shen Xudong’s words carry great weight!

After all, it is the leader in the domestic entertainment film industry.

He openly opposed the editorial of "XX Daily", and then...

Weibo immediately put this thing on the hot search list - Weibo is very popular at this stage, with the slogan "Attention is power, watching changes China", and anything is on the hot search list!

Guo Meimei, including the Wenzhou train accident, were the first to explode on Weibo!

By the way, in 2013, the Qin Huohuo incident broke out - Qin Huohuo spread a large number of false statements on Weibo, but attracted many big Vs to retweet and set the pace. Later, Qin Huohuo was arrested and illegally made huge profits as an Internet promoter company. and its business model also surfaced...

Weibo was shut down for a week, and then Weibo completely transformed into entertainment.

But now, Shen Xudong is a big V with over 10 million fans. He publicly refutes "XX Daily"...

It’s definitely going to be trending!

However, before it could ferment, this hot search was removed - Shen Xudong certainly did not delete Weibo, but it was no longer on the hot search.

By the way, Chen Xi said: "So far, up to 10% of the films throughout the year may be profitable, and the industry may suffer losses. If not 5 billion, I think there are 3 to 4 billion. With such a big loss, I really feel that we The proportion of the box office split is seriously unreasonable.

Chinese film studios can only get 40% of the total box office. After excluding distribution, film investors can only get 30%. This ratio is completely unacceptable. International film studios and distributors can get at least 50%. Only China , the lowest in the world.

How can the interests of investors and film producers be protected when there is a large investment loss? How to ensure a steady stream of good products? At this time, I think that if the industry wants to develop in the long term, the interests of the film producers and investors should be considered more. "

"Moreover, many times, in order to encourage distributors or theaters to arrange films, the film producers will make concessions. In the end, the film producers will get even less."

Gao Fenfen x-on:China Film Producers Association, China Filmmakers Association: "Why don't you stand up for such a big matter?"

"Reflecting members' demands and safeguarding members' legitimate rights and interests" is clearly written into the purpose of the China Film Association. In principle, it has the obligation to regulate internal conflicts within the industry.

Of course, she did it on purpose!

She knows that this so-called Chinese Filmmakers Association is useless...

In fact, the industry association was originally created to make up for the gray area of ​​government supervision of the industry.

Industry associations refine classifications based on national standards and raise them to industry standards, which means that industry standards should be higher than national standards. If government supervision is in place and the standards of individual industries are subdivided, then industry associations will have little effect. The space cannot be developed.

Most private guilds in China have become industry forums.

Including the Filmmakers Association - after the collapse of the Golden Horse Awards, we originally expected these people to create the Golden Rooster Awards, but have they done so?

The next day, Shen Xudong continued filming the movie without any intention of being affected.

Is it okay to retaliate if you retort? If what you say is wrong, you can’t let others refute it?

"XX Daily" just doesn't understand movies. If he did, he wouldn't end up like this!

But Hua Yi understands - on November 24, the box office of "Pi" exceeded 40 million on its third day of release, the box office of "Arcade of Swords" on its fourth day of release was 29 million, and "The Year in a Hurry" was 27 million...

Yesterday’s market price exceeded 100 million!

The market has heated up.

If it continues to be delayed, "1942" will definitely not have theater support!

Therefore, Shen Xudong received a call here - 80% of the theaters have agreed to sign the contract... It is estimated that this is done.

On the other side, on the afternoon of the 25th, when representatives from the five major theater chains, including China Film Southern Shinkansen and Wanda, appeared at the premiere press conference of "1942", everyone was surprised - because Huayi and 30 theater lines A settlement was reached and the accounts were divided according to the box office ladder. The starting price remained at 43:57. If the price exceeded 300 million, the accounts would be divided at 45:55. If the price exceeded 800 million, the accounts would be divided at 47:53!

In other words, Huayi can't bear it anymore...
