Chapter 53 Where there are people, there will be disputes (6/8)
"Water? What does it have to do with Liang Fan?"
Zhang Junsheng was a little speechless...
Although Yang Mi has made money, the "Tiny Times" series has really made a name for Yang Mi. From this perspective, Zhang Junsheng, as the major shareholder of Yang Mi, of course, should be grateful to Yang Mi Mi...
"The only difference between "Tiny Times" and "Ferryman" is that there is no Liang fan involved!"
“…Who told you?”
Liu Sisi rolled her eyes: "Don't think I don't know. "Tiny Times" is the Liang fan you suggested to find!"
"The Liang fans back then were quite appealing, and Guo Jingming himself thought she was suitable... No, that was a movie that was aimed at investing, and it really had nothing to do with me!"
Zhang Junsheng decisively opposed...
"Hmph, I went to audition too!"
"…Yeah?"
"They chose Liang Fan!"
"Luckily you didn't go, otherwise you would have been called the queen of bad movies..." Zhang Junsheng clicked on his phone while chatting: "...Hey, Disney wants to audition "Mulan"..."
Liu Sisi was decisively led to go astray: ""Mulan"?"
"Yes, I guess I'm envious when I saw the success of "Crazy Richness"!"
...
Of course, Zhang Junsheng is a double-standard dog!
But he is not targeting people, but movies...
Wang Tuocong is also a double-standard dog. On the surface, he says he is a dunk, but in fact he looks down on others.
Tang Ningyu has a nightclub. Wang Tuocong went there once and directly scolded the waiter to cry...
VIP private room, singing.
The waiter is a girl, and she ordered the song but ordered the wrong one.
Then Wang Tengcong directly scolded, "Did you knock on me?" and so on...
If your father is rich and famous, then it is easy to have noble morals or have extremely high emotional intelligence.
When Zhang Junsheng first debuted, he liked to point fingers at some movies. He has scolded basically all filmmakers in China, and he has scolded the works of the three major directors...
However, as his identity changes, he may be able to hide his truest thoughts.
I rarely write film reviews.
This time, I was probably angry...
After all, he hasn't been to the cinema for a long time. Did he think he could live "Tiny Times" even if he was bad?
Unexpectedly, they really took out a work that was made by Biyi!
At least you can see where the money is spent in "Tiny Times", "Ferryman" is really fucking confused...
400 million, where is it spent?
In fact, they didn’t really report their expenses. Liang Chaowei and Jin Chengwu took photos for ten months!
Hong Kong actors all count money by day!
Liang Chaowei's salary is about 20 million yuan, with a two-month schedule...
"The Ferryman" is just ten months!
If this drama is independently produced by Zedong Film and Television and Wang Jiawei serves as the director, then it may be fine, and you can get some money in a symbolic way...
Tengxun Pictures is rich and powerful!
Just based on the ten-month schedule, Liang Chaowei's salary was 80 million yuan; Jin Chengwu would have to be a little less, 60 million yuan...
The pay of several actors accounted for more than 60%!
Isn't it very reasonable to calculate this?
Can you shoot a romantic comedy for ten months?
Yuehua's "Beijing Meets Seattle" was filmed for forty-six days...
"Ship Time and Space" was filmed for forty-three days...
...
"Yuehua Media is worthy of Yuehua Media, and Zhang Junsheng is worthy of Zhang Junsheng!"
Standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window of the office, Zeng Maojun from Wanda Cinemas turned his back to several senior executives behind him and said, "I saw the money prospects of large industrial movies five years ago!"
"Yes, "All Channel Blockage Interference" has a box office of 260 million on weekdays, and it will be the New Year's Day schedule soon. It is estimated that the box office of this film is likely to exceed "The Wandering Earth"!"
An executive behind him continued, "Our early screening and screening strategies were still a bit conservative."
"It's nothing wrong to be conservative." Zeng Maojun said softly.
Zeng Maojun has always been the helmsman of Wanda Cinemas. He is very clear that even the most successful distribution companies will fail. Moreover, movies like "All Channel Blockage and Interference" really don't have the potential to sell well at first glance!
Only when theater companies adopt relatively conservative strategies can they avoid risks to the minimum.
The most typical one is "The Ferryman", which costs 400 million yuan and has dozens of first-line stars participating. If the company just looks at their fame and discharges huge screens, the losses in the summer season will probably be astronomical.
Although the small cinema has six to ten audiences, the cost of screening can be recovered.
However, the first weekend of "The Ferryman" has nearly 5,000 theaters and only 130 million box office numbers. I am afraid that the average number of audiences in small theaters will not have six people at each screening.
Absolutely a loss-making movie!
For movies that cost money, theaters have never had one strategy.
"Frost in the beginning of tomorrow, continue to reduce the number of screens of "Ferryman"."
Without much consideration, Zeng Maojun made a decision based on the opinions of several other executives, "By Thursday, the number of theaters and screening rates of "Ferryman" will be reduced to the minimum contract floating terms."
Major theaters across the country have signed issuance contracts with Tengxun, which stipulates the minimum screening...
No one objected, this is the most normal treatment for a failed movie.
Zeng Maojun turned around and said, "The empty theaters and screens..."
Someone later reminded, "Starting Friday, the headquarters will have a suspense film "Where did you go that summer" that will be released, and it is said to be adapted from a drama!"
"Well..." Zeng Maojun nodded, thought briefly, and said, "The screens that were vacant in "The Ferryman" were respectively cast on "Where did you go that summer" and "All Channel Blockage Interference". As for the screening rate of the two films..."
"The later trend of "The Wandering Earth" is very strong, and the box office trend of "The All Channel Blockage Interference" is very similar to "The Wandering Earth"..."
"I see."
Zeng Maojun understood what he said and said directly, "Closing the screening rate of "Ferryman" as much as possible."
There is no doubt that "The Ferryman" became a victim.
Not only Wanda Cinemas, but other film companies have made similar decisions.
As theater companies make adjustments, the Ferryman, which has no competitiveness, is not worth mentioning during working days in "Whole Channel Blockage Interference".
Starting Monday, Wu Ershan led major actors such as Xu Yan, Hu Ge, and Wang Bo to embark on a promotional journey. Daily box office statistics can also be updated in a timely manner through eye-catching ticketing!
On Monday, the single-day box office of "Ferryman" fell below eight digits, only 9.8 million. In the same day, the box office of "Ferryman" was more than twenty times that of "Ferryman", sweeping away 210 million yuan;
On Tuesday, "The Ferryman" rebounded slightly, and the single-day box office returned to the eight-digit ranks, earning 10.31 million, but fell again on Wednesday, with only 8.91 million being recorded.
At the same time, "Whole Channel Blocking Interference" earned 219 million and 198 million respectively in the past two days...
At this point, "The All Channel Blockage Interference" was released for seven days, with a cumulative box office of 1.78 billion, continuing to maintain the box office harvester, while "The Ferryman" released at the same time was only a pitiful 180 million.
Chapter completed!
