Chapter 970 Online Ticket Sales (13)
Well, the company has made a showdown - it will no longer make the "Ghost Blowing Lamp" series of movies!
In fact, I have told Tian Xia Ba Chang about this before - it is really not good for mainstream film companies to invest huge sums of money in the tomb-robbing genre.
After all, we are a socialist country, so non-mainstream movies are fine, but mainstream movies do these things: the best companies invest the most energy in these things...
It's really unpleasant to hear.
It’s not that you can’t shoot, it’s that you can’t let this kind of subject matter be at the forefront!
The tomb-robbing type, even Hu Bayi from "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", his motivations are completely contrary to national policy.
——No matter what you steal or for what purpose, it is illegal and violates the Criminal Law.
The world sings...to express understanding.
Then, the Huayi brothers spent a lot of money to win "Jiuyou General"...
As for "Mojin Xiaowei: The King of Corpses" comes from "Ghost Blowing the Lamp: Makino's Strange Incident" - it mentions the four major families of Mojin Xiaowei. Since the Ming Dynasty, there have been four major clans that are good at reverse fighting, namely Yin Yang Duan Gong, Guan Shan Tai Bao, Jiu You General, and Ku Shi Dharma King.
The four major families each have their own abilities. Duke Yin and Yang are good at sizing up the situation and commanding the Kuzi Army; General Jiuyou is good at suppressing rivers and subduing dragons, and is responsible for guarding the dragon veins; Dharma King of the Corpse is good at subduing demons and eliminating demons, and is responsible for suppressing corpse disasters. Proficient in strange arts, responsible for supervising the construction of the imperial tomb...
"Jiu Nether General" has been completed. As for "Kursha Karmapa", the money given was simply too much - eight figures!
That's right, the adaptation rights of "Nine Nether General" are as high as 12 million, and the price of "Kingsha Karmapa" is also the same.
If Tian Xia Ba Sing is willing to serve as a script consultant, an additional 3 million will be added.
The same goes for "Makino's Strange Story". Tencent Video offered a bargaining chip that the world's top singer couldn't refuse - 20 million!
I didn’t do anything, I just sold the adaptation rights and was a nominal producer, and received 20 million, and it was 20 million after tax.
Shen Xudong originally wanted to persuade him, but when he heard the price, he shut up and advised him to sign quickly!
If you don’t make this money, you won’t make it in vain!
Is "Makino's Secret" worth the price?
It's hard to say, but it is an indisputable fact that Xiangshan attracts more than 5 million tourists every year because of its "real-life ghost blowing lantern scene";
It is an indisputable fact that the web game and mobile game of the same name "Ghost Blowing Lantern" launched by Tianmei Games earns more than 400 million yuan every year;
In addition, the stage play of the same name, animation, and licensed toys also generate nine-digit annual revenue...
In the eyes of many companies, including investors, the "Ghost Blowing Lamp" series still has great potential...
I guess this is also the main reason why Tengxun spent huge sums of money to win the adaptation rights of "Makino's Secret"!
They firmly believe that once "Ghost Blowing Lantern" gets involved in the Tengxun ecological industry chain, it will definitely burst out with unimaginable vitality...
Why do they think so?
This is mainly due to censorship.
Jieshi won "Tomb Robbers Notes" and held a press conference with the theme "Jieshi deconstructs the IP ecological value of "Tomb Robbers Notes" worth hundreds of billions"
For example, the output value of the British "Harry Potter" IP has already exceeded 100 billion US dollars, and the development of China's "Tomb Raiders" IP has just begun. In the future, under the concept of ecological IP development, it is very likely that this IP The value is not just hundreds of billions, but trillions! ’
I mentioned Disney by the way: "Disney's annual box office is only a few billion US dollars, but its market value exceeds 150 billion US dollars. The reason is that Disney relies on movies and IP to carry out cross-border derivatives and develop a variety of cultural products."
“In addition to the regular derivatives of movies, music, online dramas, animations, etc., the ecological value of the IP of 楽TV has also linked up with many of its brands or services including Wangjiu.com through boundary-breaking.
The changes brought about by this kind of IP ecology will be reflected in the capital value level! This is the value of ecological feedback! "
Well, a lot of internet slang…
To sum up: "Tomb Robbers Notes" has a good start, and the IP value is very high!
The value of "Tomb Raiders Notes" has yet to be proven by the market. The "Ghost Blowing Lamp" series has been tested by the market...
It is foreseeable that all parties will increase their investment...
…
This year is a small year for Hollywood. The six major studios invested in 10 super-A productions during the summer. Except for "Iron Man 3", which met the box office and word-of-mouth standards, the other works were not good!
Disney's "The Lone Ranger" and Sony's "Return to Earth" did not even have a box office of 100 million.
In addition, only "Star Trek Into Darkness" has a freshness rating of over 80%. Among the dozens of other major films released by the other six major studios, only "Armageddon" and "The Conjuring 2" have higher freshness ratings. 80% - these two films are still small productions!
If Hollywood is not strong enough, imported films will naturally not pose a threat - "Pacific Rim" and "Fast and Furious 6" that can pose a threat have already been released at the end of July.
Therefore, "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" basically has no rivals...
There is also one, "Jurassic Park 3D" version - Anle Film and Television bought out the copyright, converted it to 3D, and prepared to make a lot of money...
Last year, the "Titanic 3D" version grossed 900 million at the Chinese box office!
"Jurassic Park 3D"…
It did put some pressure on "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea", but the appeal of "The Iron Triangle of Touching Gold" is enough.
Crush all the way...
It was not until September 6 that "The Winner" and "Elysium" directed and starred by Deng Chao were released, interrupting the 25 consecutive days of being the box office champion...
At this time, the box office of "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" has reached 1.54 billion...
Surpassing "Detective Chinatown", it is temporarily ranked first in film history!
Oh, "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" is released during the National Day holiday - it is locked in the National Day box office championship in advance.
So far, "Return to the South China Sea", "Detective Chinatown", "囧", "Wolong", "One Shot to the End"...
Five domestic movies with a box office of over 1 billion, all must be produced by Tianmei!
Excluding Tianmei, the top box office hits are "Tangshan Earthquake", "Let the Bullets Fly" and this year's "All Things Grow" by Zhao Yanzi...
Tianmei Group has actually become the dominant player in the mainland film and television industry!
…
""Tang Detective 2" will either be released for the Lunar New Year next year... or the 2015 Spring Festival release... next year's Spring Festival release will be given to "Journey to the West: Return of the Monkey King"..."
After finishing the filming of "Tang Detective 2", Shen Xudong returned to the company and wanted to take a vacation for himself. Chen Xi asked Shen Xudong about the release arrangements of "Tang Detective 2"...
"'Love' won't be released this year?"
"Where can I find a suitable schedule? We have agreed to schedule it for next summer..."
"Then are you still filming this year?"
Shen Xudong shook his head: "No more filming... I'm too tired. I need to take a good rest..."
"There's something..."
"What's the matter? Just tell me!"
"Baidu invested in Nuomi...preparing for online ticket sales..."
Shen Xudong frowned: "Isn't it Dianping?"
"We couldn't agree on the price. Last month, Tengxun announced a strategic cooperation with Dianping, investing US$400 million to hold 20% of the shares. Dianping has officially accessed WeChat and mobile QQ..."
"Sigh... We are investing in Meituan... Is it possible for Baidu to get online with Meituan?"
"...It's unlikely. Meituan has investment from Ahri, and now it's also invested by Tengxun..."
