Chapter IX Cooperation Proposals
Artists are never fighting alone, but behind them are agents who are affiliated with the company to compete in the entire industrial chain.
Some people who have done well, such as Wang Jinghua, of course, have encountered unreliable brokers and brokerage companies.
Our Shuangmei’s agent is her father, so no matter how much Shuangmei lets her, her father thinks it’s okay!
Even if she was snatching her feet in the street...
The most obvious example should be Miss Wang Ziwen. She first got along with Wang Shuo, but she didn't get any benefits. She also attached her agency contract to Xin Baoyuan. Well, she was still not very good. After starring in "Ode to Joy", she changed her agency and changed it to Taiyang Chuanhe!
Taiyang Chuanhe is Xiao Ming Ge’s agency and has a wide range of connections!
Even the agent found Nini’s former agent Chen Pu.
Then, the airport street shots that were popular on the hot searches were featured in "Men's Clothing", and many fashion brands came to their doors, making a lot of money.
Prince Wen has successively become L'Oreal and the ambassador of Guerlain, France!
I also filmed an advertisement for Nestle Coffee with Li Yifeng. Don’t think it’s just a simple cooperation. Li Yifeng’s agent signed Zhao Shan and Yang Ming, who was Huang Xiaoming’s propaganda backbone for many years…
Han Xiting has good looks and a good starting point. Unfortunately, she took a look and actually signed the agency contract to the new Huanzi...
Tsk tsk, no one believed her to say that she was not Zhang Wei’s “friend”. There was actually a photo of her on the poster of “The Flowers of War”…
...
"The Flowers of Flowers" won the Golden Globe Award, as expected.
A series of problems such as war, massacre, strong female fucking, sexual love, and Lunli were mixed together and were treated rashly by Zhang, which was very vulgar. Even the master dared not touch the serious propositions of history, war, and massacre easily, but Zhang Yimou took the lead!
Moreover, the Hollywood-style shooting techniques, plot design and the poor Western values promoted by foreigners are just like "Kung Fu King" to Chinese audiences. It is probably because of Lao Zhang's reputation overseas...
The Golden Globe Award is essentially an entertainment award. The Oscar is an industry award and a union award, which cannot be compared!
Another point is that the public relations of "The Flowers of Flowers" are very poor!
Zhang Wei claimed that 2,000 theaters in North America opened paintings at the same time, and only 30 were deeds...
The issuing company is two small and unknown small companies. Where do they get the experience and money to deal with public relations?
The North American distribution of "A Farewell" is led by Twentieth Century Fox!
One of the six major Hollywood players, with various mature publicity and distribution methods, and the artistic depth of "One Farewell" is sufficient.
Therefore, it is normal to only nominate and not win awards...
However, for Zhang Yimou, this failure made him suffer a lot.
Originally, "The Flowers of War" was confirmed to be a movie that won the award at the beginning of its project.
For the sake of box office, Bell was specially invited, but the Chinese audience didn't buy it at all!
He was quite frustrated. During the public relations of "The Flowers of Flowers", Zhang Yimou came to the scene. When ordinary public relations companies choose a work, they will consider the possibility of winning awards.
For example, the evaluation of film critics, political correctness, hot discussions in film festivals, media and even social networks, or box office success, and master directing!
The public relations team of "The Flowers of War" is looking for a local public relations company in North America. The local public relations team should have considered it and told him that the possibility of winning the award is not high...
But you still have to try it, after all, it’s all a lot of money!
Then spent millions of dollars and gained nothing...
...
In Los Angeles, the sun is just right in the afternoon.
The warm spring breeze on the west coast blew the whole city very brightly...
Rearing on the beach chair, Xu Hui held a glass of iced...watermelon juice in his hand, and chatted with Huang who was lying on another chair.
Sisi and Chen Farong and a few Chinese girls playing beach volleyball...
"It's time to see Zhang Yimou?"
"No hurry, wait for the Oscar nomination to be announced!"
"…You are so confident that "The Flowers of Flowers" will definitely not be nominated?"
Huang was puzzled.
In fact, in the past few days, there have been many movie posters everywhere in Los Angeles. "The Flowers of War" is also included, and there are also people who help to waving the flag and shout...
Nonsense, of course you have to do things if you collect money!
"…Did you not receive the news? I heard that I was eliminated in the second round!"
Xu Hui took off his glasses and looked at Huang suspiciously.
"…Where did you receive the rumor? Why didn't I know?"
"Didn't Cook Dick tell you? He said it when he was on the phone with me yesterday."
Xu Hui looked at him a little strangely.
Huang is the chief operating officer of Huitianxia. Generally speaking, this kind of thing should be reflected on him first and then transferred to Xu Hui...
"Maybe he thinks I have the idea of winning the prize!"
Xu Hui thought of a more reasonable explanation and then changed the topic: "Disney knows that we are going to cooperate with 20th Century Fox?"
"Yeah, I understand!"
The final negotiations have come out, Li An’s “Youth Pi”, Huitianxia invested 30 million US dollars, and the profits of the film in Greater China belong to Huitianxia...
"What do they say?"
"…I haven't said much, by the way, they want to further strengthen their cooperation..."
"…Don't be an official voice, say, what do they want to do!"
Further strengthen cooperation and carry out good exchanges...
Damn, these are all words in the ‘News Broadcast’!
"The Chinese market is now receiving more and more attention from Hollywood. Disney wants us to use Dili to help promote their movies..."
"This is what it should be..."
"In addition, they want us to invest in a few movies together..."
"Is it their anime?"
"No, it's a live-action movie!"
"…Don't tell me it's a movie like "Alien Battlefield"!"
“…No, it seems to be called “The Mavericks” and “The World of Tomorrow”…”
Xu Hui suddenly stopped talking!
He knew these two movies were awful because of the loss.
"The Mavericks" set the second loss record in Disney's live-action film history...
Almost got all the popularity Johnny Depp had saved for "Pirates of the Caribbean".
As for "World of Tomorrow", it follows...
"…Forget it, let's be more stable. Taking steps too fast is not good for your health!"
"By the way, you mentioned "Alien Battlefield" just now? Have you gone to watch it?"
Well, the production of "Alien Battlefield" costs US$250 million, and the large production of 100 million US dollars was invested in, with a global box office of 283 million...
Not only is the most serious loss-making work in Disney's film history, it even surpasses the huge losses such as "Future Water World" and "Cutting the Throat Island". "Alien Battlefield" brought Disney a huge loss of about $200 million, becoming the "most expensive failure" in Hollywood in recent years.
I directly compensated Disney's CEO off the Taiwan market...
By the way, the two biggest big films in the world that suffered the most in 2012, "Alien Battlefield" and "Super Battleship". Both films lost more than 200 million US dollars, which has a very magical commonality!
The male lead in these two movies is Taylor Kirch!
Tsk, it's so awesome!
The most amazing person in film history!
