Chapter 166 Released (2/4)

Guaranteed issuance…

It is easy to understand that before the movie is released, after the distributor promises the film studio the target box office, the film studio authorizes the distributor.

Theoretically, the distributor first pays the film studio a guaranteed share of the box office, and if it doesn't meet the minimum, it has to pay...

Take "Butterfly Love" as an example, the cost was 86 million, and it would take at least 200 million at the box office to recover the cost.

Now people directly pay 500 million yuan to buy out the box office, which is equivalent to giving you 200 million yuan to buy out the revenue of each side of the ticket.

The movie hasn’t been released yet, but I got 200 million!

No need to wait for the cinema to get your money back...

The producers have already made money!

Why not?

Then why are you willing to guarantee the bottom line?

To put it bluntly, it is the same as gambling. You know that your winning rate is less than 50% and the banker will always make profits - the producer does not bear the risk.

But because I believe in my own card selection and luck, I firmly believe that I can change this through technology, marketing planning or other operations.

Mainly, the issuing company feels that they will be very dissatisfied if they only earn issuance commissions. They do not take such a small amount of income into consideration, and they are seeking more benefits.

Later, with the participation of many Internet companies, guaranteed distribution has become a means of competition. In order to compete for distribution rights, many distribution companies are competing fiercely. Production companies are also willing to spend money first to make it popular and make big profits with small profits.

Big money.

However, Shen Changlin has his own distribution channels, so he is definitely not willing to wade into troubled waters.

"Sold for 500 million? Our expectation for "Heart Blossoms" is to start at 1 billion!"

"...but the National Day schedule includes "Golden Age", "Ruffian Hero 2" and nine other cartoons..."

"When did I make a mistake? Don't worry, if I say I can cross one billion, I guarantee I can cross one billion!"

After thinking about it, Shen Changlin added: "If it exceeds one billion, I will pay for it, and we can go out and have fun!"

"...Where to go?"

"Come to Poland, I heard you can issue invoices!"

Xu Zheng shook his head: "...What's the point of stirring up the water tank with a toothpick? That's not as good as Chengdu!"

"...Chengdu is too dangerous. Let's work together. The goal is too big...and when it comes to going out for fun, of course we have to bring glory to the country!"

"I can't win the glory..."

Shen Changlin was speechless. Xu Zheng had already said this, and he couldn't find a reason to refute: "Ning Hao, where did you say you were going?"

Ning Hao said nonchalantly: "Whatever...and "Heart Blossoms on the Road" hasn't been released yet, so why are you so anxious..."

"That's right, you should worry about your "Treasure Hunting League" first. Why did you choose May 23rd?"

Shen Changlin scratched his head and explained: "Avoid "Transformers 4"!"

"Why don't you fight Transformers 4?"

"...Idiot, why don't you do it with him?"

The three of them had a drink - Shen Changlin's usual drink. Baldy Xu suddenly said: "I saw Zhong Lifeng at the Shanghai International Film Festival yesterday!"

"It's been hard for Xiaoma to leave the country recently..."

"Betting on "Tai Ping Huan"...the total investment in the upper and lower parts reaches 320 million."

Ning Hao looked at Shen Changlin who was silent: "...Are you optimistic about "The Taiping Wheel"?"

"It's very unfavorable... But I won't snipe it. I will release "Icebreaker" on the 12th and give it ten days! After all, it is Big Dog's last work..."

"…Thank you!"

"You're welcome!"



Gusi

When Shen Changlin left Edinburgh, the Shanghai International Film Festival was still going on, and major studios held film release conferences at the Puxi Hotel...

There are PPT projects all over the street. It is said that this year, Enlight Media, Bona, Wanda, Jieshi, Huayi Pictures and other leading film companies have announced the film lists of more than 200 movies...

The capital market is in full swing.

It gives people a feeling that it doesn't matter whether there is Shen Changlin in this world...

Is that so?

Take a look at the movie market. "Going to Meet You Now" was released for 18 days, with a box office of 760 million. It is tentatively scheduled to be second in the year. "The Amazing Spider-Man 2", which was released at the same time, was released for 12 days, with a cumulative box office of 340 million...

"My Deskmate" was released for 21 days, with a cumulative box office of 380 million, and "The Hypnotist" was released for 28 days, with a cumulative box office of 402 million...

Except for "My Deskmate", the other two domestic films are produced by Changlin Film and Television!

Then, "The Treasure Hunt" starts nationwide screenings!

It will be screened nationwide three days in advance, and then it will be released nationwide without a premiere...

It is aimed at "Overheard 3", which will be released on the 29th.

If the popularity of "Treasure League" does not spread, it will soon be overtaken by "Overheard 3" in terms of popularity.

After all, the third part of the series, "Overheard 3", Mak Siu-fai + Zhuang Wenqiang, has a star cast of Liu Qingyun, Louis Koo, Daniel Wu, this time also included Zhou Xun, Huang Lei, and the cost is close to 150 million.

Then, the box office exploded on the first day - on the first day of screening, only 2,300 screenings were scheduled nationwide, and the box office was close to 7 million!

The attendance rate was close to 90%, and word-of-mouth quickly developed. The crew announced that they would increase screenings, with 4,500 screenings scheduled for the next day, and the box office of screenings exceeded 15 million...

On the third day of screening, 9,000 screenings were scheduled, with a single-day box office of 38 million...

Then on May 23, there was a public screening. On the first day, 56,000 screenings were scheduled, with a screening rate of 58%, and a box office of 160 million on the first day!

The next day, the film schedule increased to 60,000, 60% of the film schedule, and the box office was 188 million. On the third day, the film schedule of May 24 was still maintained, with a revenue of 176 million...

In the three days of its first weekend, the cumulative box office of "Treasure Hunters" was 584 million, breaking all records.

Not only did it break records in the domestic market, it was released simultaneously in South Korea, mobilizing 1.9 million moviegoers in the first weekend, setting a new record for Sino-South Korean co-productions!

As for word of mouth…

Douban scored 7.9 points, but South Korea's NAVER movie section gave "Treasure Hunters" a score of 8.64 points...

Most of the reviews are very fair: "Although it is not up to the level of high-intelligence robbery films that people applaud, it is still a very complete crime film. It has action, conspiracy, and some small twists. Shen Changlin My ability to control is getting better and better!'

Some people also say, 'It's quite lively and good-looking, but it's just not a classic.'

Some people even said, 'You actually made Jun Ji Hyun and Kim Dae Hee a couple...it's great, as expected, only a woman is worthy of my goddess!'

There are also negative reviews, and many of them are: 'Shen Changlin has gone crazy, and even Ma Yun doesn't like him. Movies made by such people cannot be good!'

Shen Changlin...continue to promote...



"...I just think it's beautiful, just like the scene between Lao Wang and Brigitte Lin in "The Swordsman"..."

"It's beautiful, why don't you take a photo?"

Shen Changlin accepted an exclusive interview with Weibo Movies and mentioned the kiss between Jun Ji-hyun and Kim Dae-hee. Shen Changlin answered calmly.

"It's my own taste...but I remember that during the internal preview, many theater managers clapped and applauded!"

"Kim Soo Hyun... a few people must have died. Huang Bo and Lei Jiayin are also dead..."

"Okay, I admit, I didn't expect Kim Soo-hyun to be so popular when I was filming...otherwise, I wouldn't have broken up him and Jun Ji-hyun!"

"The distribution in South Korea is handed over to CJ Media. For details, they call me every day... I don't understand Korean, and they can speak Chinese or English..."

"I heard that the results are good, they gave a prediction of 6 million moviegoers!"
