Chapter 599: Some Personal Grudges

Wang Zhongjun of Huayi, Wang Changtian of Guangguang, and Yu Dong of Bernard greeted them one by one. These were the big bosses of private enterprises who came here in person.

Representatives of the six major studios, Orange Sky, Forbidden City, Huanya (Hong Kong), Jiguang (Taiwan), Jinyi, Huace, and dozens of other companies all greeted them one by one.

The managers of other theaters across the country had to wave their hands. If they shook hands one by one, it would take forever.

No one thought Yang Lingyue was rude. He was thoughtful enough, not to mention that there were always staff members greeting and introducing him.

This is the most complete and top-level film group in the country. As for Fan Bingbing who appeared in the backstage, he is the general manager of Meitao Film and Television, Mr. Fan, and he has to sit in the second row.

The scene of Yang Lingyue greeting various people with a smile on his face was naturally captured clearly by the rows of cameras behind him.

A bunch of reporters also sighed. Except for a photo taken by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs a month ago, Yang Lingyue had not appeared in public for a long time. I heard that she was filming "The Sound of Wind", but I didn't expect that she would cause such a mess again.

Yang Lingyue greeted them at the right time and then went to the door to greet a group of bigwigs in the lounge. In addition to Tong Gang, there was also Han Sanye and leaders of major film studios. The ones he greeted just now were just representatives who did specific things.

The camera clicked again, and Yang Lingyue was dragged to sit in the middle of a row, with two bigwigs on his left and right. Han Sanye said: You have to report to Director Tong.

Naturally, because Zhou Jianfeng was the host of the press conference, and the current operating director of Popcorn is Guo Yun, a 36-year-old woman. It was originally her, but this sister sprained her ankle, and it was not good to limp on the stage.

As for the technical summary Meng Qi, forget it, he would faint in such a scene.

So it can only be the general manager Zhou Jianfeng, and General Manager Zhou naturally has no problem at all.

At 10 o'clock, the venue was dark, and the LED screen behind the stage lit up, showing: "Popcorn Movie Ticket Purchase Network Press Conference"

"Dear leaders, guests, welcome everyone..., I am Zhou Jianfeng of Baozi Technology, and also the person in charge of Popcorn Network..."

"Provide rich information about popular and upcoming movies, including trailers, high-definition posters and stills, plot introductions, and netizens' comments..."

(Applause)

.....

"Of course, the most important thing is to connect producers, theaters, and audiences through the Internet.

Needless to say, users do not need to queue up to buy tickets, and can go offline to buy tickets. You can choose to watch movies, which greatly saves time costs. We will also launch promotional activities from time to time. For example, for the upcoming If You Are the One, Popcorn will offer half-price tickets and other discounts at a minimum of 10%.

Cinemas can adjust the film schedule through movie ticket reservation information and other content to maximize resources, which can be seen at a glance through big data;

Producers and distributors can adjust the direction of publicity through user comments to achieve better publicity effects, attract users, and increase box office;

In short, Popcorn will bring faster and better changes to all film practitioners. ”

(Applause, discussion.)

“Everyone, please be patient. Now, I will demonstrate the operation process for you:

Log in to the homepage of Popcorn, you can see the popularity ranking of movies, you can choose the movie you want to watch, or search for it;

After entering the movie page, you can see the detailed information of the movie and the expected evaluation of netizens;

The ticket purchase button is below, you can buy tickets independently, or you can invite others to buy tickets together at a discount, and you can also participate in related activities initiated by Popcorn and the film company. Can this expand the audience group for the film?

After purchasing the ticket, you will receive a verification code on your mobile phone. At that time, you only need to enter your name and verification code to pick up the ticket at the theater. In addition to improving efficiency, rate, will it greatly save the labor costs of the theaters?

At present, the theaters under China Film, Shanghai Film, and Xi'an Film have already arranged ticket machines, two in one theater, and all ticket machines are given away free of charge by popcorn. "

The guests from the three companies whose names were called smiled and nodded, and as for everyone else: (boom, began to discuss)

Tong Gang said after a while: "Good trick."

"That's right, he eats the upper and lower companies, and the capital flow is still here. Everyone knows that they are making money for him. No matter how disgusted they are, they have to beg him to make money, and they wish he could make more money from them. "

Han Sanye's words obviously carried a bit of personal resentment.

Yang Lingyue said seriously: "Third Master, you are so ridiculous. Don't I need money for operation and maintenance? I have invested 400 million yuan in the ticket machine. If China Film Group takes on these, I am willing to serve you for free."

Han Sanye glanced at him: "Nonsense, there are only 1,500 cinemas in the country, where did the 400 million go?"

Yang Lingyue was of course talking nonsense. The pure cost of a machine was only 1,200 yuan, and 5,000 sets were produced at one time. With the costs of transportation and labor, the average cost of the theater was only 1,400 yuan per set. 3,000 theaters, each with two sets, were fully covered, but only more than 8.4 million yuan, even if the mold opening fee was added, it was only 10 million.

As for research and development, Jiang Rong's previous workshop director of the deodorizer factory tinkered with it and got it done. There was no technical content in itself, it was nothing more than assembly. Now you can't swipe your ID card or scan the QR code.

As for the server, this amount is not even a sesame seed in front of Baozi Video.

Yang Lingyue happily gave this little money, even if it was multiplied 10 times.

But now he said earnestly: "So you don't understand, the machines plus the factory building only cost about 10 million, what about the servers?"

Listening to the two people arguing, Director Tong waved his hand: "Boss Han, what Yang Lingyue is doing is a good thing. Our cinema is developing rapidly. Now we have such a popcorn, which can be regarded as a pair of wings. We must support it."

Han Sanye nodded and said seriously: "Of course, otherwise China Film would not have put this machine in the first place. Don't worry, old leader, I will say what I should say."

Tong Gang stood up and said: "Okay, I'm leaving, you guys are busy."

Naturally understand that the leader is busy with affairs. Of course, they are making room, otherwise the guests will have to find someone...

Then Han Sanye really nailed it with his spit, and went up to objectively evaluate popcorn. He didn't say anything about the producer, but only said that all China Film films will have popcorn in the future.

The theater chain is equivalent to an imperative.

"Improving the audience experience has always been what we emphasize. Using machines instead of manpower is both convenient and cost-saving. I really can't think of any reason to refuse."

Everyone applauded.

Zhou Jianfeng then answered all kinds of questions from reporters in the film and television industry and financial technology.

The film and television industry is concerned about the commission, whether the platform is fair, whether there will be bidding rankings, and other issues.

Zhou Jianfeng naturally said that it is absolutely fair. At present, it is in the stage of market cultivation. No commission will be charged. When the time is right, it will be negotiated with the three parties.

In fact, it has been decided long ago, 5%-15%, which is also the standard commission for all ticket purchasing software in the future.

In addition to commission, the profit model of popcorn also includes software and hardware advertising, as well as the income from the extension of capital flow.

Of course, the most important thing is financing. This is why it is hung under the buns, to whet the appetite. The attitude of the entire Donglai Group is that I am very rich and there is no shortage of investment.

If a hole is suddenly opened, won’t it flock in?

So after the reporter from the financial technology asked about the profit model, it was inevitable to ask whether there would be financing.

Zhou Jianfeng said with a smile: "I can tell you for sure that it will, and we will tell you when we are short of money."

It is not a two-dimensional or nonsensical movie, otherwise there will definitely be a voice of falling.

Afterwards, the reporters were like crazy, calling Yang Lingyue to say something, and the crowd was really excited.

Yang Lingyue could only say: "Dear journalist friends, what Mr. Han from China Film Group said just now includes what I wanted to say, that is, everything is based on movies and for Chinese movies. As for the gossip and new works you asked about, I won't talk about them on this occasion. Thank you all for your support. I have other things to do, please forgive me."
