Chapter 785: A Little Face
It was May when Xu Fei came back.
The multi-functional conference room of China Film is another big slide, with red and blue dots on it, densely packed.
"Of the 65 qualified theaters in Beijing, there are 42 in the new film association, and 10 have been poached, plus 7 in Jin Province, with a total of 59 starting lineups. ”
"They're not expanding?"
"The capital is their basic plate, and it is enough to enter Jin Province. ”
Wu Mengchen and Xu Feiquan said that nothing happened: "I'm just worried that their location is too good, Ziguang, Dahua, Xindong'an, and Donghuan Plaza can attract nearby consumer groups."
We picked up the remaining 13 theaters, all of which were average in location and facilities, and they were not competitive enough. ”
“......”
Xu Fei looked at the distribution map and said, "Guangdong Province 8, Jiangxi Province 4, Fujian Province 1, Rongcheng 2...... I pulled 21 with Lao Han, spanning seven provinces, and now in the reckless era, the prototype of the cinema line, take your time.
Oh, by the way, there is no movement of foreign capital?"
"Hong Kong's Jiang Zhiqiang has won the sixth floor of the new Dongan Plaza, wants to build an 8-hall cinema, and promised to join our cinema chain. ”
"8 halls, then we won't build 7 halls, change them to 9 halls!"
"You're too competitive?" said Han Sanping.
"It's not competitive, our theater has to be the leader, otherwise it won't have appeal. ”
Jiang Zhiqiang is a very famous person, who opened an Anle Film Company and a Hong Kong Broadway cinema line. He is like Yasuda in Japan and Seo Young-so in South Korea, who has always been in the foreign film business.
Historically, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Hero", "Ambush on All Sides", "Lust Caution", etc., he has made great efforts.
International soup was banned that year, and it made a successful comeback, and it is said that Boss Jiang was the driving force behind it......
Xu Fei calculated and said: "There are 34 of us, plus the two newly built, that is, 36, and the screen is only 90." Tsk, that's pathetic!"
"Not bad, an average of 2 more screens. Those small theaters are even more pitiful, and they are estimated to be eliminated in the first round. ”
After a while, the two will officially establish a cinema company.
In the China Film Era, the former took 30 million, accounting for 51%, and the latter took 25 million, accounting for 49%. The starting lineup is 36 theaters, most of which are signed, and a small number are China Film's own.
Nowadays, the film can be divided into 35-40%, and the theater can have at least 60%. According to 60%, 50% will be retained, and 10% will be handed over to the cinema company, which is about such a ratio.
Cinemas can also control theaters, and after holding, they will invest money in renovation and upgrading.
So why do you like to build your own theater?
..................
There is a Xuanwu District in the capital, which was merged with Xicheng District in 2010 to become the new Xicheng District.
It's still there at this time, there are a lot of places to play, Dashilar, Liulichang, Niujie, and overpass are all in Xuanwu, including Daguanyuan, which was built in the former Nancai Field.
The overpass is outside the Zhengyang Gate, the original white marble bridge is one, three beams and four columns, under the bridge is a small river, called Longxu ditch.
In the past, it was a gathering place for folk artists, but now it has changed greatly, and only a few are still engaged in theatrical performances. Among them, there is another day Qiaole Tea Garden, which has a long history, with two layers of tea houses, which can receive 200 spectators, and there is a large stage in front of it, which is antique.
It was originally a cultural station in Tianqiao Street, and was later managed by a state-owned cultural company. The lot with every inch of land and the area of more than 1,000 square meters may not be able to be won if it is related to it now.
Isn't it the 90s? Isn't Mr. Zhang a big boss in Hong Kong?
Mr. Zhang bought it, sandwiched it in his 30-pound property right certificate, and was later asked by Mr. Chen to engage in folk customs dissemination, and it is now the base camp of Tianqiao Quyi.
The core men's group is called Deyun Club, which performs several times a week, and when it is not performing, others are on it, such as Hebei Bangzi, Layang films, Peking Opera, and double reeds.
At the moment, backstage.
The four kings of the little black fat man, the donkey teacher, Li Dayan, and the crooked shoulders are all there, and there are many old artists, and everyone is putting on makeup.
Nervous and a little excited, all kinds of muttering: "Is it really shooting today?"
"Shoot, don't you tell me?"
"Is Zhang Yi coming?"
"I'm not sure, maybe come. ”
"Hey, who would have thought that I would sing foreign films for the rest of my life and contribute to the country. An old man sighed.
The little black fat man turned around and answered: "This society is developing, the times are changing, and I didn't expect that as soon as I talk about cross talk, it can be related to the Olympic Games." ”
"Don't say it, you behave well today, and let you go up to the opening ceremony for a while. He tilted his shoulders and said.
"The opening ceremony of the Olympics?"
"Huh. ”
"I'm wearing a big coat?"
"Hmm. ”
"Finished talking about cross talk?"
"What's wrong with that?"
"What kind of thing is this foreigner?"
"Chinese talk show. "Teacher Donkey's praise is over.
In an instant, the backstage is filled with jolly air.
After putting on makeup, I ran to the front desk and waited for a while, and a group of people poured in, carrying various machines. Everyone looked for it for the first time, and they were very disappointed when they didn't see Zhang Yimou.
The donkey teacher trembled, and stepped forward in small steps: "Brother Fei!"
"Yo, the fat boy is there, too. ”
"Big brother, I'm 31. ”
"What's wrong with 31?
Yu Qian waved his hand and counted what love is called.
Although the little black fat man worked for others, he really had no contact with the big boss, so he hurriedly came over: "Mr. Xu is good!"
"Well, how's business?"
"Fortunately, it can seat seventy or eighty people a lot. ”
"Seventy or eighty people still applaud?"
"Now that quyi is declining, no one comes to the tea garden, Guangdelou is not as good as us. ”
Yu Qian interjected: "The point is that our audience is gradually growing. ”
"Oh, that's right! When it first opened, it sold a few tickets per show, and it really grew. The black fat man said busily.
Xu Fei shook hands with Li Dayan and crooked shoulders like the leaders inspected, and then met those old artists.
"Mr. Jiao Xiuyan, before the liberation, he was on the flyover, and the descendants of the big golden tooth Jiao Jinchi are almost eighty years old. ”
"Mr. Du Sanbao and Mr. Zheng Fushun, who sang double reeds, were also on the flyover before liberation. ”
"This is the comrade of the Fenglei Peking Opera Troupe in Xuanwu District, the team left by Liang Yiming and Zhang Baohua back then. ”
Mr. Xu cordially condoled, invited everyone to take a seat, and said: "Today's tasks are clear, shoot a promotional video for Beijing's Olympic bid." There is a new culture and traditional culture in it, and what everyone represents is traditional culture.
Here are five types of opera, one by one, on stage, one by one, shooting, and under the direction of the director. But don't be restrained, even if you have a problem, you can squeak when you are thirsty and hungry, and you can manage it enough. ”
After saying that, he didn't care, he just came to see the excitement.
The director began to explain, asking everyone to act a paragraph first, and then see the effect. Find the most sensory clips, and finally condense them into 3-second shots.
The first to go up was Jiao Xiuyan.
In the late Qing Dynasty, the earliest form was to make a wall of cloth, enclose a venue, and sit 20-30 spectators. The painting is hung in front, painting landscape figures, someone specially explains, after talking about one side of the rope, replace the next one.
The painting is very large, so it is also called pulling a large piece.
Later, it continued to develop, turned into a small box, and looked through the hole, and began to sing songs and lyrics with gongs, drums, cymbals, etc.
is such a process of filming, Jiao Xiuyan sang on it, I didn't understand it, this form is relatively flat, and there is no feeling of brushing.
"Mr. Xu, it's enough to be used. The director whispered.
"Let's shoot first, and then we'll see later. ”
After a few minutes of singing, the old man was sweating profusely, not knowing whether it was hot or excited.
"Very good, good, your mission is done. ”
"Eh, I'll go back then. ”
"You take this. ”
"I can't help it!"
The old man saw that the staff stuffed a red envelope, and hurriedly said, "How can you ask for money?"
"We have a little mind, you take it. ”
It's good to say that in his pocket, the old man hunched his back and left.
He's old, and there's still a young one over there, look at the size of the red envelope, hey, he's generous!
Suddenly his eyes were red and his heart was hot.
With the Peking Opera Troupe, this is much smoother.
The rhythm is strong, the stylized performance, the appearance of the eyes is raised, and it is especially suitable for cutting into short shots.
And backstage, anxious and white-faced.
"Mr. Zhang, come, come!"
"Qian'er, come on!"
"You are an elder, you can live here, you must come!"
"That's it, Mr. Zhang, come on. ”
"Well, then I'm disrespectful. ”
Zhang Wenshun, who crooked his shoulders, arched his hand and thanked a few people, especially Yu Qian. Both of them are funny, this is to give themselves the opportunity to show their faces.
(And ...... )
