Chapter 90: Questioning
"Have you ever thought about signing up for the film festival and winning another award this time?" Yu Dong said with a smile.
The previous box office of "Comet" was able to break 10 million, and the New Wave Award and the Golden Horse Award are undoubtedly a big boost, and the effect of these two awards is definitely comparable to millions of publicity costs!
So after discussing the movie promotion plan, Yu Dong couldn't help but joke.
Chen Hao smiled when he heard this, "I've already signed up!"
"Did you really sign up?" Yu Dong was stunned when he heard this, "What film festival did you sign up for?"
"Cannes!" Chen Hao said.
"Cannes?!" even Assistant Li couldn't help but be surprised this time.
After all, the popularity and influence of the three major European ones in China definitely surpass the Golden Horse Awards, and when the Golden Globe Awards and Oscars are out of reach, the three European ones can be said to be the highest hall of honor for Chinese filmmakers.
"Are you sure?" Yu Dong immediately asked.
"Of course not!" Chen Hao shook his head.
The influence of Cannes is world-class, it is a grand event for global films, and all the films that can be shortlisted are masterpieces, and "Moon" is naturally not bad, but if you want to win an award, you must not be sure of winning!
Yu Dong also smiled and shook his head when he heard this, he was too greedy, Chen Hao was still so young, and he wanted him to win an award at Cannes, which was indeed a bit difficult for a strong man.
"However, although there is not much certainty of winning the award, as long as it can be shortlisted, it will attract attention, and with the influence of Cannes, it should be able to play a good publicity effect. Chen Hao said.
Yu Dong nodded when he heard this, "The quality of "Moon" is good, but if you are shortlisted, you should have a chance!"
"Hopefully, it's going to be soon, and we'll know by the end of the month. Chen Hao said.
Later, the three of them discussed the issue of film distribution.
Bernard and Huaying will receive 15% of the producer's box office revenue as distribution remuneration, and the producer's share is still only 35% of the box office.
Chen Hao shook his head helplessly, his influence was still too weak, and he could only force the theater to make concessions after the release of "Hero" by the National Teacher at the end of the year.
The share of "Hero" should have reached 40%, while other films also made a profit from it, and the box office share ratio increased by an average of 2 points to 37%!
Subsequently, the film party and the hospital started a dispute of interests that lasted for more than ten years.
Relying on the influence of each blockbuster of the national division and other blockbusters such as "Red Cliff" to exert continuous pressure, of course, there are also reasons for the continuous popularity of the mainland film market, in more than ten years, the proportion of the filmmaker's share has increased by 10 percentage points!
It's really too difficult, and it's still quite different from the United States and other countries.
At the same time, this is also the treatment that only blockbusters have, and the average film may only have a 35% share even after many years, and even in order to schedule more films, it is not for nothing to drop a few points.
In the end, it still depends on your fame and box office appeal!
As for the release date of the film, it is set for Thursday, May 30.
This year's Cannes International Film Festival will close on May 26, and if "Moon" can win an award, it will be just a few days before the media reports ferment, and then it will be released directly on the heat of Cannes!
......
After the three negotiated the publicity and distribution plan of "Moon", Chen Hao was a lot more relaxed, and now he just needs to wait for the inclusion of Canton in the list and the arrival of May 18.
It's just that when Chen Hao was idle, he met Ning Hao, who returned to the studio with a disappointed face.
"What's wrong, Ningzi?" asked Chen Hao.
"Didn't you introduce Bernard to me, it's just that he wasn't very optimistic about the box office expectations of "Incense". Ning Hao sighed.
Chen Hao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Incense" is a literary film, and its box office will definitely not be too good, "Ningzi, have you ever thought about making a commercial movie like me?"
"Commercial films?" Ning Hao frowned slightly when he heard this.
Chen Hao sighed in his heart when he saw this, Ning Hao's current mentality is probably the same as that of many academic directors, who look down on commercial films, and are even ashamed of making commercial films, but they want to prove their art with the box office!
In their view, making commercial films is degenerate and a stain on film art, which is one of the reasons why there is so much shortage of commercial film directors in China now and even before the film market is booming.
"Otherwise, how about you go to the film festival first like me? If you have a trophy, you will definitely become famous, and then you may have a box office. Chen Hao said.
Ning Hao nodded when he heard this, "That's the only way." ”
"Alright, let's go to the teacher first and see if he has a way, and then I'll help you inquire. Chen Hao smiled and pulled Ning Hao out of the studio together.
......
Sohu Entertainment Report: Genius director Chen Hao's new film "Moon" has been completed! It's just that it took less than 2 months from the start to the completion of the film, so I'm sure I'm not joking!?
Wangyi Entertainment: The latest sci-fi blockbuster of the new star director was completed in only 2 months, do you still think "Moon" is worth looking forward to?
New Wolf Entertainment: The new sci-fi film "Moon" directed by "Comet" has been revealed, is Chen Hao a fast gunner, or has the investor's 20 million been lost?
......
What Chen Hao didn't expect was that the news of the completion of "Moon" was known by the media so quickly, and the media reports were not very friendly, which can be described as full of doubts!
However, a sci-fi movie with special effects shots was completed in less than two months, and most people will question it!
Chen Hao just smiled at this, and didn't mean to come forward to explain, after all, he didn't see the finished film, and he still doubted it.
It was only soon that the discussion about "Moon" expanded, and the reason was that Feng Cannon spoke.
""Comet" is a pseudo-science fiction that sells dog meat on the head of a sheep, it can sell for 10 million, it is purely because everyone has been deceived, now look at "The Moon", the sci-fi film will be produced in less than 2 months, do you think it is in Xiangjiang?
Feng Dacang's words made the media explode instantly, and they couldn't wait to kiss him happily.
And Chen Hao and "Moon" were also instantly pushed to the forefront, attracting countless attention and saliva!
The media is arguing over Feng Cannon's words, what is going on with "Moon"?
Most of the media took a negative attitude, some remained neutral, and only a small number of media gave support!
It's really hard for a group of people who haven't seen the finished film to analyze this and that!
The discussion about "Moon" also quickly spread to the Internet!
China Entertainment Reporter: Two months is indeed a little faster, but with "Comet", I will also go into the cinema to see how "Moon" is!
Reader 1533296848328111: It's only been filmed for two months, and it's a science fiction film about the moon, so it's unreliable!
Hand in hand: Yes, I was looking forward to the director's new work because of "Comet", but now I'm dead!
Phantom Moon Warriors M: "Comet" is good, I thought there would be a better science fiction director in China, but now it seems to be a dream!
Qinglian Earth: Although two months is indeed a bit faster, what if Chen Hao is a fast gunner!
Sweet Sugar Poem: Don't be stupid upstairs, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment!
Emperor Tianxia: I'm the one who makes soy sauce, you go on!
