Xu Hui pushed open the door.

The private room is very luxurious, with antique decorations, and the four great Kings of Huang Wen, Chen Farong, Xu Liang, Ye Ning and Huiwen are all sitting inside.

The chat was very enthusiastic. Anyway, when Xu Hui entered the door, he happened to hear Huang Wen say, "What is a billion box office? I dare say that there will be two billion box office works this year!"

"Isn't this our Mr. Xu? Sit down..."

The one who spoke was Huang Wen.

It's a very normal title, but there's always a sense of alienation...

"Sorry, the plane was delayed..."

Xu Hui took off his backpack and sat down.

"The movie is finished?"

"Um."

After taking the tableware handed over by Chen Farong, he casually praised: "It feels different to work with a bunch of actors with acting skills!"

"That's, Al Pacino, Matt cute...Tsk tsk, I really want to watch this "Cinema Paradise"!"

Xu Liang made a statement.

"Don't worry, it will be released in May soon!"

I picked up a piece of duck meat, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it into my stomach.

Taste good!

It takes five or six hours to fly to Beijing from Italy. Although Xu Hui had no requirements for food, he was always a little resistant to the meals on the plane...

"Released in May? Are you going to attend the Cannes Film Festival?"

Ye Ning's eyes lit up.

"Yes, I'm going to have a Golden Palm this time!"

You don’t have to hide your own people!

Xu Hui expressed his ambitions sincerely.

In today's era, if a movie like "Cinema Paradise" wants to win an award, it's like playing.

About dreams, about movies, about forgetfulness.

Every point is aimed at the judges!

Not only Cannes, Xu Hui has great ambitions for "Cinema Paradise". The reason why he did not make it into Italian is that he wanted to make an Oscar full of English!

Very chance!

However, if you want to win the Oscars, the screening has to be postponed in order to cooperate with the awards season!

"…Then how much box office do you think your movie will have?"

"It depends on the situation. The mainland should be able to exceed 100 million..."

The style of "Cinema Paradise" is destined to be unlikely to sell well, the narrative structure is too smooth and it is far from Chinese audiences.

Even if you win the Palme d'Or, you will probably have a box office of up to 200 million!

It’s also the popularity of Xu Hui…

"The box office of $40 million is only over 100 million? Xu Hui, this transaction is losing money!"

Huang Wen shook his head, lit a cigarette, and took a sip: "However, you are qualified to consider the award. Buying a Palme d'Or for $40 million is a bit expensive, but it is also worth it!"

"How can movies be so simple to measure value through box office? Besides, "Cinema Paradise" may not necessarily win awards..."

Xu Hui looked up, looked at Huang Wen, then turned to look at Ye Ning: "I think you can try the art theater you mentioned last time, which is also considered to be..."

"Literary and Art Cinema?"

Huang Wen looked at Ye Ning in surprise and was about to interrupt, but Xu Hui ignored him at all and continued to Ye Ning: "The industry now evaluates our Huiwen world. In just one sentence, a profitable film company has caused quite a stir after the release of "Lost and Orphan", but most of it is still concentrated on the movie itself and has little to do with our Huiwen. I think it is necessary to make a bigger news. You can try to reserve a screening room in every theater in front-tier cities to play literary and artistic movies to see the effects. At the same time, we can also support some new directors, buy some film sources through buying out, and expand the film library..."

"We can set up a movie exchange center and let them come with the script. We are responsible for screening..."

Ye Ning thought this idea was very reliable and put forward her own ideas.

"Well, excellent projects, we can invest in them!"

Xu Hui nodded and added: "And if there is a very good director, you can sign it..."

"Two, interrupt!"

Huang Wen was a little angry. What does it mean, do you ignore him?

"Brother Wen, do you have anything to add?"

"Have you calculated that if you used the screening halls that should have played commercial films or even big-selling types specifically for art films as you said, how much loss would it be?"

Huang Wen's expression was a little excited.

"...I will definitely pay for the money for the time being, but the reputation it brings is hard to exchange! The great success of "Lost in Thailand" is not only staring at us, but many viewers are also watching our next move..."

"No, your idea is too idealistic, I won't agree! Moreover, I can tell you clearly that not only I don't agree, the board of directors will not pass your resolution!"

"Can you represent the board? I am the chairman of the board, why don't I know what they think?"

Xu Hui looked at Huang Wen coldly, and then added: "The film market is developing very fast, but it matures faster. Within five years, bad movies will lose the market!"

"Xu Hui, you are too young. Let me tell you that in the current film market, box office is the king! Whoever can get a high box office will be a good director!"

"Is that so? Then tell me what is the praise for the movie "Happy Home"?"

"…this…"

Huang Wen was stunned.

Movies like "Happy Home" are basically built with zero investment and advertising. As of today, the total box office of "Happy Home" is 150 million!

Although the total box office of domestic films has made great progress in 2012, and two works with a box office of over one billion appeared in a year, most movies are still struggling, and 80 million is considered a big sale!

150 million…

Damn, what do these people think?

Xu Hui strengthened his tone: "Our market is immature, so we who make movies need to guide us! The audience is cultivated!"

Huang Wenyou was a little dissatisfied and muttered: "...I still think it's unreliable. I don't make money. I encourage some art films... By the way, if we encourage art films, it doesn't mean it's the Golden Horse Award! Slap yourself in the face!"

Speechless, can this be the same?

In essence, the Golden Horse Award is the self-output of Taiwan movies. Although the awards tend to be literary and artistic, once Taiwan local commercial films are successful, there will definitely be nominations. Even if it is not the movie itself, the actors and directors will be released!

There is too much difference in what Xu Hui wants to do.

But he was too lazy to explain and simply said: "...No difference, when we get bigger, it will be another Golden Horse Award!"

"Then you are slapping yourself in the face. You said that the genius that domestic movies should develop more commercial films..."

“…So I said that it was just a small-scale screening in first-tier cities. Relatively speaking, the audience in first-tier cities should be more mature.”

"Yes, Mr. Huang, don't worry, our theaters are enough, and we should make some compensation to the market..."

Ye Ning was determined to stand on Xu Hui's side. When he was poaching him, Xu Hui said that Huiwen Cinema would build the Huiwen Cinema into the largest online gambling center in the country, and the beauty online... Bah, no, it is to build a large cinema that not only has influence but also has a "conscience"!

The whole year last year, Huiwen Cinema's box office revenue alone reached 3.2 billion, ranking first among the top ten cinemas in the country!

The box office revenue is of course the big hit in theaters, but in other aspects, opening credits, film and television peripherals, supporting snacks, etc., you can barely make a little profit...
