2004 was undoubtedly a year of rapid development of the Chinese film industry.

Film production has increased greatly, and in 2004, Huaxia produced a total of 213 feature films, which was not only 50% higher than in 2003, but also created the highest record in film history!

At the same time, Huaxia also produced 10 documentaries, 4 cartoons, 30 science and education films and 110 TV movies.

China's current film output can be compared with France, India, etc., and it has entered the ranks of the world's major film production countries!

There are a variety of film genres, including the martial arts film "Ambush on All Sides", the main theme film "Zhang Side", the science fiction film "The Man Without a Name", romance films, horror films and the director's personality film "Ke Ke Xili" and so on.

Film investment has become more diversified, and private and foreign capital have accounted for 80% of the total number of films.

The total amount of film investment has increased, especially the "big productions" with a cost of more than 5 million have increased significantly, and even the investment in literary films such as "Jasmine Blossom" and "Peacock" has exceeded 10 million!

"Ambush on All Sides" has set a record for the investment cost of Chinese films, 36 million US dollars, about 290 million yuan!

Private enterprises led by Old Picture, Poly Huayi, Huayi, and Haotian have become powerful film and television production brands!

Among the top ten films in 2004, "The Man Without a Surname", "Ambush on All Sides", "Kung Fu", "No Thieves in the World", and "New Police Story" are all mainly private investment.

Huayi and Haotian were both shortlisted for the 2004 "500 Most Valuable Brands in China"!

Before 2003, the profit ratio of the mainland film market was generally 60% for imported films, 30% for Hong Kong films, and 10% for domestic films, but in 2004, the proportion of domestic films in the box office exceeded that of imported films for the second time, accounting for 55%.

The first time was "Hero" by the National Teacher in 2003, a movie that accounted for a quarter of the total annual box office was a miracle!

In 2004, the total annual box office in the mainland was 1.52 billion yuan, an increase of 38 percent compared with 1.1 billion yuan last year.

Five of the top ten films are domestic films, and the top four are domestic, and the fifth-ranked "District 9" also has Huaying investment.

In 2004, a total of 5 films exceeded 100 million at the box office, namely "The Man Without a Surname", "Ambush on All Sides", "Kung Fu", "No Thieves in the World" and "District 9"!

And the annual box office champion in 2003 was 53 million for "Mobile Phone", which could only rank 9th in 2004!

The overseas box office of domestic films has also set new records, mainly the three films "Hero", "Man with No Name", and "Ambush on All Sides" have contributed the most!

The overseas box office of "Hero" exceeded 1.1 billion yuan, and "The Man Without a Surname" is still being screened, and the cumulative box office has also reached 700 million!

The number of cinemas in the mainland has also increased to 36, with 6 with box office revenue of 20 million and 16 with 10 million!

The total number of screens in the mainland has also reached 2,436!

The Chinese film market in 2004 can be said to be developing rapidly in all aspects!

However, only one-third of the 213 feature films produced made it to theaters, meaning that the remaining two-thirds became a backlog.

Not to mention that in the one-third of the films released, there are very few that can really make money!

Domestic films can be described as seriously making ends meet, with production but no market!

At the same time, the value of film production in the United States is as high as 60 billion US dollars, while in China it is only 3.6 billion, which is only 0.6% of that of the United States, which is not even as good as neighboring South Korea for a large country with 1.3 billion people.

Also, Chinese people watch movies every 5 years on average, while Americans watch an average of 5.4 movies a year, the gap is too big!

In addition, the film classification system, the market competitiveness of films, etc., are in urgent need of improvement.

The road of China's film industry has progressed, but there are also many crises!

......

After entering 2005, Chen Hao's work began to become regular, busy dealing with the company's affairs during the day, and busy turning over the cards at night, which can be described as working day and night!

"Mr. Chen, then I'll leave tomorrow!" Xing Aina said.

"OK!" Chen Hao nodded.

Xing Aina paused when she heard this, and then said, "Mr. Chen, I don't mean anything else, I think you should find a more professional person to do this kind of thing, after all, I'm just a screenwriter, and sometimes it's inevitable that I don't think it through." ”

Chen Hao was stunned when she heard this, thinking about it, Xing Aina is a screenwriter after all, and now she is developing in the direction of producer, and this negotiation and acquisition of the company is indeed not her strong point.

Professional things still have to be done by professional people.

I was also a company that had just been established and had no manpower, so I reluctantly asked Xing Aina to help, but I got used to it, and sure enough, I was still not very good at managing the company, so I had to find a capable person.

It's just that the people I know in this area are in other people's bowls, and I have to wait.

It is true that you have to find a professional talent in this aspect of acquisition, after all, it is estimated that there will be no less things in this area in the future, and the future acquisition will not be at the current million level!

"Then find a headhunter, not only find someone to replace you, but also help the company find legal affairs, public relations, and investment talents. Chen Hao said.

When it comes to corporate profits, debts, copyrights, taxes, etc., there must be legal talents.

In addition, now that film and television dramas want to become popular, in addition to their own quality, marketing and publicity have also become the top priority!

For example, the promotion of "Ambush on All Sides" cost 30 million yuan, and even the national teacher has to do this, which shows that the era of marketing has arrived!

As for investment talents, Chen Hao is mainly to serve himself, especially the idea of acquiring Marvel that Smart told Chen Hao has been lingering in Chen Hao's mind.

Find a talent in this area, you can provide yourself with clearer ideas and feasible solutions, as for whether it can be done, then let's talk about it.

"Okay, I'll do it now!" Xing Aina smiled.

Finally, I can be relieved and return to my own work, of course, so as not to make mistakes!

Now that the company is developing faster and faster, Xing Aina is really worried about the acquisition, but fortunately, this should be the last time!

Here, Xing Aina had just left, and Ning Hao came in again.

"Why don't you two come in together?" Chen Hao asked with a smile.

"Go, go!" Ning Hao waved his hand and said, "I'll tell you about "Green Meadow". ”

"Didn't you sign up for the Berlin Film Festival?" asked Chen Hao.

"Yes, so I'm going to Germany in February, and I want to take advantage of the Berlin International Film Festival to get "Green Meadow" in theaters in February. Ning Hao said.

"No problem!" Chen Hao nodded, "When is the film festival?"

"February 10th!" Ning Hao said, "So, I want "Green Meadow" to be released on February 15th!"

"Yes, I'll arrange it. Chen Hao nodded.

"That's okay, I'll go first!" Ning Hao said with a smile when he heard this, and then left in a hurry.

Chen Hao looked at Ning Hao's back and smiled, "Green Meadow" really made Chen Hao look forward to it!
