Chapter 175: End

"Owner? Who?"

"Which actresses in our company can't do it?"

Paohui was a little speechless. He never thought about finding an artist under the company to star in Dongfang Bubai. The main impression of Aunt Qingxia was too deep.

‘What we see on the screen is her eyebrows are like a sharp edge, her hair is like a knife cut, her red outfit is full of charm, her men's makeup is cold and domineering, her drinking is free and unrestrained, and she is dignified and calm while looking at her. She sits on the ground, killing the enemy with a blink of an eye but is calm. She falls off the cliff, smiles brightly and is as beautiful as a fairy.’

The most important thing is the aura! At this stage, there is no actress with the powerful aura of Aunt Qingxia!

Yu Feihong could only barely meet Xu Hui's requirements...

"I'll think about it again!"

Xu Hui was a little confused. In fact, the two girls, Dienai and Reba, also have heroic beauty. However, it is too difficult for the little actress to evolve into the Big Qingyi in one go!

"…Zhang Yimou has been using new players in the past two years, Xu Hui, you can't lose to him!"

"Can it be the same? The characters he finds to play are all little girls..."

Paohui almost vomited blood. Can this be compared?

Why don’t you ask Aunt Gong Li if you are looking for “The Golden Armor in the City”?

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Huang, I just received the news that the release time of Zhang Weipin's "The Flowers of War" is ahead of schedule!"

The door was pushed open, and Huang Wen's secretary rushed in, bringing a very impactful news.

“…How many numbers are there in advance?”

Huang Wen and Xu Hui looked at each other and were stunned for a few seconds, and the latter asked a question.

"On the 15th, it will be officially released!"

“…Is this person wrong?”

Xu Hui couldn't help but curse.

"…you go out first."

Huang Wen looked at Xu Hui and then signaled his secretary to leave first.

"In fact, the General Administration has coordinated and hopes that on No. 9 of the "Famous Flowers" will be pushed to No. 20, and the two blockbusters will be staggered for 10 days."

"Isn't this very good? Yes, I hope to play with Zhang Yimou directly, but the reality is that our market does not have enough capacity to accommodate two blockbusters. Not to mention us, there is no precedent for two blockbusters to be released at the same time in North America. Have you ever seen "Batman" and "Spider-Man" released on the same day? Why can all six major American companies sit down to negotiate schedules? Chinese movies will release two blockbusters, and they must kill each other. If this is spread, it is specified that the whole world will be laughed at!"

Xu Hui was still a little angry.

Perhaps it is because of the improvement of vision. Xu Hui is now considering more about whether his movie can defeat whom, but rather, looking at the two blockbusters released at the same time as the boss of the production company, which can only be a loss-win situation!

"You listen to me first."

Huang Wen couldn't help but raise the volume: "I also told Zhang Weipin through China Film and Television that the two films should be staggered and he would not do it. As early as three months ago, he called various theaters and asked to stop our films."

"Who is he? He even banned our Huiwen Cinemas? He has a brain disease!"

"However, our theaters have not received any copies of "The Flowers of War" so far..."

"…Contact me with a few media outlets, I want to do an exclusive interview!"

"...No, the General Administration said, don't start a war of verbal war!"

"Damn it! This is not allowed, that is not allowed, so I will not let me be released!"

...

"New Longmen Inn should be the highest-invested movie in China now, with an investment of nearly US$30 million, because we added nearly RMB 30 million in the later stages!"

"The figure of $30 million is real. Listed companies cannot make blind accounts. Our financial statements will be announced at the end of next month, and you will see it!"

Still unable to stop Xu Hui. On December 3, Xu Hui accepted an exclusive interview with "Southern Weekend".

"The increase in production costs is a problem in the industry now. In fact, there is no need to make the production costs so high. My youth films "Sunshine Sisters" and "The Girls We Chased Together in Those Years" are both small costs and have won a big box office! What kind of movies do the audience want to watch now? They still have to go back to the movie itself: to give the audience a kind of inner comfort."

"The current film industry has not yet reached this level, and there are not enough creative talents. In addition, our technology is relatively backward, and the scarcity of resources will lead to higher production costs. These costs will eventually be passed on to the audience, and a minimum ticket price is limited, and the accounting ratio is a lot of messy things!"

Zhang Weipin said that he seeks benefits for producers and wants to increase ticket prices and share accounts, while some peers took advantage of the situation and proposed "you raise and I lower". What do you think?

"I don't agree. Zhang Weipin said that he is fighting for the interests of the producers, and I think it's all for his own benefit! When he released "Three Guns Shooting Surprise" in 2010, there was a conflict with "October Siege". On "Three Guns" No. 9 and "Fengcheng" No. 18, the "Three Guns" reduced the account to the theater chain by 5 percentage points that day. The theater chain took two points and the cinema took three points. Isn't this clearly encouraging theater chains to row more "three guns" to win the box office? Because the investment cost of "Fengcheng" is high and the recycling pressure is high, the "Three Guns" are cheap.

Today, he said that he would increase the proportion of movies for the producers. He did a 5 percentage point share last year. You can’t just scatter the meat in other people’s bowls to yourself just because your movie is expensive. 50 million yuan in box office plus two percentage points. This 10 million is the basic survival cost of theaters, and you are scattered into your own job.

To increase the proportion of accounts, under the specific national conditions today, we should negotiate and communicate with theaters, instead of forcing you to follow my opinion because I made a blockbuster film, I would order you to do it according to my opinion, otherwise I would not give the film and I would be arrogant."

He said he wanted to ban Huiwen Cinemas. How did you respond?

"Feng, I'm not afraid of him! I really think that without him, Zhang Wei's product, our theaters can't continue to do it?"

"For competitors in the industry, I don't think you should do anything that hurts the industry. You can't ask the theaters to do just because you made a strong movie today. Didn't the art films Zhang Yimou make back to theaters?"

"Director Zhang Yimou is the Chinese director I respect most. He is a director who has made contributions to Chinese films. We do distribution to help these films maximize the market, rather than hurting each other! I think there is no competitive relationship between the two directors Zhang Yimou. As the boss, publisher, and producer, he threw the two directors into the same trenches, which is not good. The cinema has no choice, and the audience has no choice. The media is speculating and the water army is scolding, which is a great harm to the film industry."

Have you ever thought about postponing the release of "New Longmen Inn"?
