Chapter 771: The Theater is Completed (4300+ Chapters, Ask for Subscription~)
Dignified culture!
"It's been a hard time!" Wu Jianye sat on the sofa and said to Huang Jianxin with a smile.
In the past year, Huang Jianxin has almost traveled to major cities across the country, reorganized the original local distribution company, and built his own flagship theater, all of which were completed by Huang Jianxin and Xiangjiang's Fengge Cinema Line, among which because of follow-up reasons, Huang Jianxin even played a leading position in this cooperation.
Huang Jianxin's figure is obviously thinner than before leaving, but he is very energetic.
"It's definitely false to say that it's not hard, but it's very interesting!" Huang Jianxin took a sip of very Coke, with an excited expression on his face.
"In the past year or so, most of the distribution companies have been integrated, and the flagship cinemas in major cities have been completed except for those built in cooperation with Heung Kong Land!"
Heung Kong Land is a large shopping mall and other buildings built in China, so because it has to cooperate with the construction of Hongkong Land, the cooperation between the two parties has not been completed, but some independent cinemas have been built.
During this period of time, Huang Jianxin has thoroughly experienced what it means to spend money, and in this year's time, the cash spent in his hands must be at least 1.5 billion, which made him think that he was in a dream.
The integrated issuance companies are basically city-level issuing companies, of course, not all city-level companies are integrated by Huang Jianxin.
First of all, Huang Jianxin will select the city he wants to integrate in major cities across the country, and then negotiate with China Film, Radio and Television and other departments, while China Film, Radio and Television and other departments will examine the profitability of this city distribution company, and China Film and radio and television and other departments have their own evaluation criteria.
If the profit reaches their standard, they will not give up the distribution company, and if it does not, they will agree to the acquisition of Xiangjiang Fengge Cinema Line.
To put it bluntly, we keep what makes money, and you take it if you don't make money!
This also led to the fact that among the acquired distribution companies, the domestic box office was heavy, and the distribution company Fengge Cinema in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai did not win.
Most of the issuing companies obtained are inland cities.
And their own flagship theaters, there are not so many restrictions, especially those areas that have not won the distribution company, such as Huhai, Jinling, Lin'an and other regions, Fengge Cinema Line has built 3-5 flagship theaters with different numbers in one go!
That's also the bulk of the cost this time.
This is to do this kind of thing in 91-92, it only cost 1.5 billion yuan, if it is changed to the era of Wu Jianye's rebirth, even if it is 15 billion, it is impossible to complete this thing.
"Now Fengge Cinema Line is the largest private cinema chain in China, with 25 theaters with more than 10 halls, 65 theaters with 7-9 halls, 40 theaters with 4-6 halls, plus the distribution companies in major cities we have acquired, the number of theaters has reached 200!" Huang Jianxin said excitedly.
After Wu Jianye heard this data, he was also very happy, and affirmed: "It's already very good to have this result!"
After finishing speaking, Wu Jianye picked up a check on his desk, handed it to Huang Jianxin, and said with a smile: "This is a reward for your work this time!"
When Huang Jianxin saw that the check was written with 200,000 yuan, he subconsciously refused: "Director Wu, this is not good, I originally worked for the company!"
Wu Jianye waved his hand and said: "If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have a fault, you will be punished, but you have done a good job this time, this is what you deserve!"
Huang Jianxin smiled and took the check for 200,000 yuan in Wu Jianye's hand.
Wu Jianye said: "Now the cinema line has been established, but there is still a lot of work waiting for you to deal with it, first of all, in the management of the cinema line, the domestic Fengge cinema line will be different from the Fengge cinema line in Xiangjiang, and when the time comes, you will also serve as the general manager of the domestic Fengge cinema line, the first thing to do is to set up our own box office supervision department!"
In the past, the domestic distribution company wanted to compete for profits with China Film, and the box office of many movies was deceived and concealed, and now the domestic Fengge Cinema Line has also received a part of the domestic distribution company, although some people have been trained, but no one can guarantee that they will not bring the set they used to play in the distribution company to Fengge Cinema Line, a large company, examples of being defeated by external forces abound, but there are also problems caused by their own internal problems.
So this opening Wu Jianye must be blocked!
As for letting Huang Jianxin concurrently serve as the general manager of the domestic Fengge Cinema Line, Wu Jianye had already told Huang Jianxin in the preparation stage, and the establishment of the entire cinema line was in charge of Huang Jianxin, and no one was more suitable for this position than him.
"Director Wu, don't worry, I will definitely take care of the theater!" Huang Jianxin just won a reward of 200,000 yuan, and now he is naturally very excited.
Wu Jianye nodded and said: "There is one more thing, that is, although the new cinema chain has been established now, the audience may not be able to return to the theater, we have to find a way to pull the lost audience back into the cinema chain!"
Even if the newly built style theaters are very different from the current domestic theaters, it is still very difficult to change the inherent habits of some people.
Huang Jianxin knew that Wu Jianye must have his own way when he said this, so he sat there and listened carefully to Wu Jianye's next plan.
""The World of Chu Xing" is about to be released, and I am ready to make this movie the first movie to be released in Fengge Cinemas in China!" Wu Jianye said first.
Huang Jianxin has no opinion on this decision, and now the director with the most box office appeal in China is Wu Jianye, and it is well deserved to make his movie the first film to be released in Fengge Cinema in China!
But Huang Jianxin knew that Wu Jianye's plan would definitely not be so simple.
Sure enough, Wu Jianye then told Huang Jianxin about his specific plan, and after Huang Jianxin listened, he couldn't help but look at Wu Jianye in surprise: "Director Wu, isn't this kind of investment a bit too big? If you do it according to your plan, you will have to invest at least 5 million!"
Wu Jianye smiled and said, "We have taken out 1.5 billion, do we still need to worry about 5 million? And five million is not enough." ”
When Huang Jianxin heard it, this is indeed the truth.
"Then this plan, should we match the release time of the movie "The World of Chu Xing"?"
Wu Jianye nodded and said, "Yes, the movie "The World of Chu Xing", I have decided that it will be released at half past eight in the evening of September 30 this year, the difficulty of your work is not small, can you complete it?"
Now that it has entered September, there are only more than 20 days left until the end of the month, and it is indeed a difficult thing for the newly established domestic Fengge Cinema Line to do all the publicity plans in place in 20 days.
Huang Jianxin said with a smile: "Director Wu, don't worry, during this time, our people have not only been learning from the people of the Xiangjiang head office in the propaganda of ordinary staff, but also learning from them in the propaganda methods, there will be no problem!"
Wu Jianye nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, this matter will be left to you to do!"
Later, Huang Jianxin discussed with Wu Jianye about the propaganda methods of "The World of Chu Xing" in China.
However, this time to promote the new theater in China and let the lost audience return to the theater, it is a unified action with "The World of Chu Xing", so many things can be done together!
After Huang Jianxin left Wu Jianye's office, Jiang Zhiqiang's phone also called.
is also discussing with Wu Jianye about the release of the movie "The World of Chu Xing" in Xiangjiang and Southeast Asia.
"Director Wu, will you come over for the premiere of Xiangjiang this time?" This is what Jiang Zhiqiang is most concerned about.
Wu Jianye shook his head and said: "The release of "The World of Chu Xing" in China is more important, and I will go to Xiangjiang to hold a meeting after attending the premiere ceremony in China!"
The movie "The World of Chu Xing" can be said to carry a lot of things for Wu Jianye, first of all, the first task of this movie is to pull the lost audience back to the cinema.
No matter how tempting the plan Wu Jianye and Huang Jianxin said before, the movie is still the most fundamental thing, if a movie can't attract people in terms of plot, then the box office success will only become a shooting star.
Only when a steady stream of good movies appear in the cinema can the audience really stick to it.
"Have you chosen all the movies that will be released in domestic theaters?" Wu Jianye asked.
Now there is a lack of real movies with box office appeal in China, so you can only choose movies from Xiangjiang in the early stage, which is also a helpless move.
Jiang Zhiqiang said: "Several movies have been selected now, including the premiere of "Wu Zhuangyuan Su Qier" starring Zhou Xingchi, "The Peerless Double Pride" starring Liu Dehao, "The Legend of the God of War" three movies, as well as Li Lianjie's "Huang Feihong 2 Men Should Be Self-Improvement", Cheng Long's "Police Story 3 Super Police" These five movies!"
At this time, Wu Jianye really admired Xiangjiang's filming efficiency, especially Zhou Xingchi, who still sent nearly five movies this year after being delayed for nearly four months because of the filming of "The World of Chu Xing".
As for Liu Dehao, who is also a famous model worker in Xiangjiang at this time, in another time and space, everyone knows that Zhou Xingchi participated in six movies this year "The Judge of the Dead", "Happy Events in the Family", "The Legend of Deer and Ding 1,2", "Wu Zhuangyuan Su Qier", "Truant Weilong 2" But in fact, this year Liu Dehao also starred in "The Peerless Double Pride", "Las Vegas Tycoon 1,2", "The True and False Dragons of the Machine Boy", "Dragon Teng Four Seas", "The Twelve Young Men of Temple Street", "The Legend of the God of War", "Wow! Hero", "Ninety-two Condor's Infatuated Mood Long Sword" , nine films!
What is the concept of nine films, even if one or two of them were shot last year, it still shocks the speed of the film.......
The movies Jiang Zhiqiang said, including "Wu Zhuangyuan Su Qier", "Peerless Double Pride", and "Huang Feihong 2 Men's Great Self-improvement" are all produced by Fengge Pictures, as for the others, "The Legend of the God of War" invested by Liu Dehao's Tianmu Film Company and "Police Story 3 Super Police" invested by Golden Harvest!
With these five movies, it is enough to digest the current domestic Fengge Cinema Line!
"Are you done with Radio and Television?" Wu Jianye asked.
Jiang Zhiqiang said: "The script has been submitted to the radio and television, and as for the two films "Huang Feihong 2 Men Should Be Self-Improvement" and "Police Story 3 Super Police", which have been released, the radio and television have also been reviewed, no problem!"
Wu Jianye nodded, although now because of his own relationship, the radio and television side will give the green light to the movies sent by Fengge Media.
But Wu Jianye never thought about relying on this to take advantage all the time, maybe it's nothing now, but if this kind of thing is done for a long time, it will definitely be remembered by the other party.
Wu Jianye would not do this kind of thing.
"Well, the movies submitted for review in the future should also be submitted according to this standard, some movies that do not meet the domestic situation, don't send them, even if the radio and television side agrees, they will face a large rectification, but lose the charm of the movie itself!"
Wu Jianye admonished.
This kind of thing can also be said by Wu Jianye, if it is an ordinary film company, even if it is rectified, it will find a way to release it in China.
After all, although there is no way to compare the current domestic box office power with the box office powers of later generations, everyone can see that if according to Wu Jianye's current plan, the domestic film market will rise sooner or later, and everyone wants to be able to come in time to get a piece of the pie at this time!
In fact, there are indeed many film companies that do this in later generations.
The most famous of them is "HEI Society", which was invested by Huaxia Star and filmed by Galaxy Imaging!
The first part of this movie, in order to be released in China, let Du Cannon modify the ending, and even changed the name of the movie to "Dragon City Years".
The plot in it has been changed even more, Jimmy Tsai, played by Principal Gu, was changed to an undercover agent of the police, and Ah Le played by Ren Dahao also killed Big D, the Xiangjiang police appeared and arrested him, and Jimmy Tsai, played by Principal Gu, lit the wax.......
This also led to the fact that by the time of the second part, the film was not released in China.
also has the same fate as "Big Guy" starring Liu Dehao, which was changed to "Big Man with Great Wisdom" when it was released in China.
This movie won the Best Actor at the 23rd Film Awards for Liu Dehao that year, but when it was released in China, it was sprayed out by Galaxy fans and Liu Dehao's fans.......
All because of the emergence of the mysterious scissorhands in China.......
Jiang Zhiqiang said: "Understand, I will be responsible for the check!"
At this time, Fengge Pictures actually exercised the review of the films sent by Xiangjiang to the mainland for release, and there was no way that there was only one private cinema in China now, Fengge Cinema Line, if Xiangjiang's film company wanted to release it in China, there were two ways, one was to shoot the film in a joint venture with the domestic film studio, and the other was to submit it for review as an independent Xiangjiang film, but the distribution should also be handed over to the domestic distribution company, but it was not as happy as cooperating with Fengge Cinema, after all, everyone knows the operation of the domestic distribution company.......
As for the release of the movie "The World of Chu Xing" in Europe and the United States, after Wu Jianye's comprehensive consideration, it was finally decided to cancel the idea of simultaneous global release.
Whether it is Zhou Xingchi or He Qing, who has entered the field of vision of European and American audiences with "New Dragon Gate Inn", there is no way to compare with Wu Jianye in this regard!
Therefore, Wu Jianye has to go to Europe and the United States to promote it in person to maximize the benefits of this movie!
Although Wu Jianye doesn't want to admit it, the fact is that Europe and the United States and other countries are now the real box office powerhouses.
