Chapter 320

At 7 o'clock in the evening, a large number of theater managers and movie buyers gathered in a movie theater in Las Vegas.

The preview is the same as the exhibition promotion. It is to display the products to these theater managers for review. If you think there is something to do, you will sign a contract. If you think there is nothing to do, you don’t want to cooperate, and no one will force you!

Sarah Ryan, who was sitting next to Zhang Ran, was a little worried about the preview. Seeing that Zhang Ran was calm and as if nothing had happened, she couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you worried?"

"What's there to worry about?" Zhang Ran smiled. He believed that anyone who has watched "Time Warrior" would not be worried. "You haven't watched "Time Warrior"?"

Sarah Ryan nodded and said, "Yes, I was sick and didn't come to the company on the day I watched the movie. But I heard everyone say that the movie is very good!"

Zhang Ran laughed: "You will know after reading it!"

Sarah Ryan thought to himself that this person is really confident. I want to see if "Time Warrior" is really as good as everyone said!

The lights quickly went out and the theater was pitch black!

Many theater managers and buyers were quiet and looked at the screen seriously.

The screen quickly lit up. The first thing that appeared was the opening animation of Lion Gate, and the next one was the opening album of Qing Film Studio. The opening album of Qing Film Studio is very simple and cannot be compared with the beautiful animation of Lion Gate. It is just a few words about the Youth Film Studio, but it has a very contemporary feel.

The content of the movie has not changed. The beginning of the movie is still Jason's dream. In the dream, he saw the strange man.

The movie screening was similar to the situation where Zhang Ran showed film clips to East Asian filmmakers in Vancouver a few months ago. However, this time the movie was more perfect and the audition was more intense, so when the man poked his head out of the wall and stared at Jason Little, a burst of exclamations rang out of the scene.

Even the battle-hardened theater manager was shocked by this scene, and Sarah Ryan was so scared that she fell off directly.

The next content is that Jason asked for help online, attracting heavy special police, and then Jason drove away. The special police drove to chase him.

The thrilling car chase scene began. With the strong music, the audience's heartbeat began to accelerate with the whistling of cars, and the tense atmosphere that always permeated the air quietly penetrated into the blood. Since the movie entered the plot, no one has been distracted, and everyone was fully focused on the movie, and the heartbeat continued to rise and fall with the plot.

Sarah Ryan's face turned pale in the crazy pursuit of the car, her heartbeat increased several times, and it was clearly audible. When the car fell to the ground, hit the stroller, and was blown away, these exciting scenes appeared, she let out a scream again and again, and she completely entered the situation of the movie.

The movie is going on slowly, and Sarah Ryan feels the movie is nervous and exciting, like a roller coaster, with ups and downs very exciting and enjoyable watching.

When the fog that enveloped the audience's hearts slowly unraveled, the real crisis was placed in front of everyone, and there was no choice. You could only fight, either life or death.

The final battle of the movie is extremely fierce. The rhythm is compact, and it is a real fight from fist to flesh. The biggest highlight of the Chinese movie is fully displayed in the film. The entire fight is more realistic, more deadly, and more cool than "The Matrix". The entire fight spans six spaces, six different environments, presenting completely different fighting effects, which is amazing.

Of course, the most shocking thing in this fighting scene is the perfect combination of fighting and special effects, which creates a very strong visual impact.

The movie ended. The subtitles swept quickly across the screen, and thunderous applause rang out in the entire screening room.

"It's so cool. Unparalleled! There's no doubt that this movie will be a big success!"

"I just want to get the copy right away. I want to watch it five times first. I love this movie so much!"

"Incredible, so exciting, so cool! Which idiot said that this movie is a bad movie? It's so hateful!"

The theater managers actually applauded! The people in the Lion Gate distribution department were both surprised and happy. This situation was rare. It seemed that they really liked this movie.

The big screen gradually dimmed, and the lights in the screening room lit up, but the audience's applause did not weaken at all, and everyone was applauding hard.

While applauding, Sarah Ryan looked at Zhang Ran a little fanatical. In fact, when Odenberg arranged for her to accompany Zhang Ran to visit the expo, she felt a little resistant. I am a professional publicity staff member, not a secretary, so why did I arrange for me to visit with someone!

But at this moment, after watching "Time and Space Warrior", she has completely become a fan of Zhang Ran, and her eyes looked at Zhang Ran full of admiration.

Now she knew why Zhang Ran wasn't worried. No one would worry about making movies of this level.

Not only Sarah Ryan, but also many theater managers on the scene were conquered by Zhang Ran. At this moment, they are no longer theater managers, they are no longer movie buyers, they are just ordinary movie audiences.

Zhang Ran stood up with a smile and listened to the cheers and applause of the audience. He knew that this time he had succeeded, and there would be no problem with the schedule of the movie, and the box office of the movie was guaranteed.

Victory is right in front of you!

The theater managers all surrounded him and said all kinds of praise.

A film dealer said, "Mr. Zhang, your film is so exciting. The whole film is full of imagination and creativity. I like this film so much!"

"You are a genius, this is the best movie in months. I believe this movie will be a bomb in the summer and will stunned everyone who has doubts about it!"

Zhang Ran smiled and nodded in greeting: "Thank you, I'm very happy to hear you say this!"

After complimenting Zhang Ran, the film dealers surrounded Gusta in the middle. This is a film that no one wants to miss. They are afraid of long nights and dreams. Because many areas of American movies are exclusive, one area can only sign one theater. If other companies win "Space-Time Warriors", they will have no chance.

Therefore, the theater managers did not dare to be careless and fired their own conditions: "Mr. Gusta, each of our 140 theaters under Ineple has four screens, and the proportion of paintings is 90% for two weeks, gradually reducing the screening time from the third week, with eight weeks!"

In the US share sharing cooperation method, the share ratio between the producer and the theater is not static, and is often adjusted at any time according to the release of the movie.

The structure of the movie is very simple. The routine between the publisher and the theater company is that the distributor and the theater company will win 90% of the box office in the first two weeks, and the theater company will win 10%. From the third week, the ratio will be seven to three, and then gradually lowered. That is to say, the longer the playback time, the higher the commission ratio of the theater company. This is also to encourage the cinema to screen longer. Of course, this number is just a convention. Depending on the work, there will be some changes, such as the dividends of the big production movies will be relatively longer.

After deducting the up and down of the numbers, overall, ordinary cinema chains can take away the box office of the movie on average for fifty, while Hollywood's top blockbusters can only get 40%. The specific data must be based on the situation of the movie and the comprehensive strength of the publisher, and it can be divided through negotiations. Of course, it can also be a fixed share ratio now, generally 50% of the account.

The conditions for opening ple theaters are good, and the A-Mike theaters are not to be outdone and offer better conditions: "The 260 theaters under our A-Mike, each of which has four screens, is 90% of the first two weeks, and the proportion is reduced from the fourth week, and the release time is ten weeks! Starting from the month before the movie is released, our theaters will play movie trailers for free in all halls, and at the same time, every half hour, the trailers will be played in the ticket hall once."

"We will reduce the proportion from the fourth week at 90% of the first two weeks..."

Sarah Ryan watched the theater manager rushing to Gusta in amazement, surrounded him, and loudly reported his respective conditions. She was extremely excited. She had been doing movies for several years and participated in the distribution of many movies. She had never seen such a warm scene, and had never seen the theater manager so excited.

Gusta's mouth trembled, and the manager of Ah Mike didn't come in the afternoon. The conditions for opening are higher than anyone else. This is the rhythm of ambition! He knew that "Time and Space Warrior" would definitely be very popular, but he never expected that these people would give directly the treatment of Hollywood blockbusters as soon as they spoke. It was a dream to get such treatment.

It's so exciting!

At this moment, the theater managers only have one idea, that is, they must win it! Because they believe that this movie will definitely be a big hit, so they can only talk about it, and the theater will definitely make a big profit.

Gusta raised his hands and signaled everyone to be quiet. When the scene was quiet for a moment, he shouted: "Gentlemen, we can't talk about this. I think this is the case. Let's go back and think about what conditions you can come up with. How about bringing your price to us tomorrow morning?"

The theater manager also felt that the current situation was indeed not suitable for negotiation, and he needed to go back and think about his strategy and strive to win "Time and Space Warrior" in tomorrow's negotiations.

After the theater manager and the buyer left, the people at Lions Gate were all excited. Today's preview was so successful. In the following negotiations, Lions Gate will definitely win the most favorable conditions for it.

The next morning, everyone in the Lion Gate distribution department was busy. Managers from dozens of theater chains came to the door to discuss the release of the movie.

Zhang Ran is not very familiar with the specific operation of the distribution, so naturally he did not participate in it. Professional things should be left to professionals to handle. However, Zhang Ran is confident in "Space and Space Warriors", with a+ evaluation, a complete marketing strategy, and the theater chain is very interested, so the negotiations will not last too long.

While Lion Gate was busy discussing the release with the theaters, Zhang Ran was in the cafe with Harvey and Coffee. He had a smile on his face, and it was obvious that he was in a great mood.

Of course, if the business is negotiated in the next negotiation, he will be in a better mood.

Zhang Ran did not talk nonsense and quickly expressed his purpose: "Harvey, I have heard that the distribution rights of "Fatus 911" are in your hands, and I want the distribution rights of this movie." (To be continued.)
