443 [Cooperative Meow Eye]
Soon the industry once again felt the solemnity of crimson, from TV to the Internet, from print media to airplanes and even train videos, as well as building advertisements, etc., the overwhelming advertisements about the movie "Kung Fu Panda" reminded many people of Luo Yuan's previous "Loyal Dog Hachiko", and the difference is that this time Luo Yuan is promoting an animated movie-
Gu Lang is familiar with this process.
And as Luo Yuan expected, with the overwhelming advertising effect, some netizens have indeed begun to be interested in "Kung Fu Panda", an animated film that has been scarlet and given high hopes by Luo Yuan.
"It's a very strong advertisement. ”
"If you have a chance, it seems like you can really take a look. ”
"I still won't watch it, no matter how many advertisements there are, how stupid it is to go to the cinema to watch a cartoon, and I'm not a child anymore, and I don't have any children at home......"
"Don't look at plus one. ”
"If you have children at home, you should accompany them. ”
Although there are not many viewers who are interested in "Kung Fu Panda" because of the advertising effect, it has to be admitted that some viewers already feel that they can try to accept this animated film.
Luo Yuan will not blame the audience.
This is a problem of inherent concepts, no matter how much I explain that the focus of the form of this animated film is not animation but film, it still won't change some people's minds, and there is a more intuitive big killer -
This big killer is called a trailer!
When the crimson official Weibo and some platforms relaxed a set of trailers of the five heroes practicing martial arts, many netizens who originally thought that "Kung Fu Panda" was just a cartoon were stunned:
"Damn, it's kind of interesting!"
"Good clean movements, very anthropomorphic!"
"Is this a cartoon, why do you feel that some of the scenes in it are shot with a camera in reality, and it's really different from the cartoon in my impression......
"I'm starting to get a little interested. ”
"It's really the first time I've seen this form of cartoon, and it's true that it's also a cartoon, but I always feel like what's the difference from what we watch at home?"
“……”
This is the first shift in the direction of the wind.
Although there are still more people who say that cartoons are cartoons after all, no matter how well-made they are, they can't change the essence of their animation, especially in the industry, they don't understand why Luo Yuan's good movies don't have to make any cartoons, but at least there are more interested people than before.
What surprised Luo Yuan even more was ......
With the impact of a set of trailers for "Kung Fu Panda", a distribution company finally contacted Crimson, and when Luo Yuan was about to hold back and take the initiative to contact those distribution companies.
"I'm Gong Yun, the vice chairman of Meow Eye Entertainment!"
The person who came was about to be in his early forties, tall, with black hair tied up, revealing a kind of intellectuality and ability, and at first glance she was a more elite type of woman in the workplace.
"Gong Dong is good. ”
Luo Yuan shook hands with him.
The other party smiled: "It seems that it is the first time to meet Director Luo, and I am younger than I imagined, but if I have the opportunity, I still hope to have more contact in the future, we are somewhat interested in the "Kung Fu Panda" produced by your company." ”
Luo Yuan said: "I'm also very interested in your distribution channels. ”
Gong Yun was slightly stunned, as if she was thinking about whether there was a deeper meaning in addition to the superficial meaning of Luo Yuan's words, and saw Luo Yuan unveil it with a smile: "In other words, we are going to prepare a viewing party, are we going to invite representatives of the theater chain to come over at that time?"
"It's inevitable. ”
Gong Yun didn't expect Luo Yuan to be so direct, but after thinking about it, she was relieved, Luo Yuan is a director after all, and directors belong to the category of artists, and it is impossible for this kind of person to be the boss and talk to the businessman like a philistine: "Then let's finish reading the work first, and then discuss more details?"
Luo Yuan nodded.
I thought that after a trailer was released, some companies in the Seven Congress saw the potential of "Kung Fu Panda", but I didn't expect that the Seven Congress had no action until now, including Kyushu, and only Meow Eye took the lead in sending a signal of cooperation.
Then, if you don't come, you won't come.
Let Luo Yuan beg the Seven or Kyushu to help him release this kind of thing, Luo Yuan will definitely not be able to do it, anyway, it is the same with Meow Eye to help the distribution of this animated film, although the cooperation with Meow Eye is the first time, but if the two companies have similar strength, it is easier to talk on an equal footing.
Even the consequences of not coming to the meow eye Luo Yuan also took it into account.
Isn't there some scattered theaters in China, and they have all been acquired and integrated in the future, although they will definitely suffer losses in price, but at least they will not be clamped by the theater line everywhere, and there are meow eyes, and meow eyes should be in the hands of the Oriental cinema line......
"It was set for three days later. ”
When Luo Yuan was pondering, Gong Yun made a proposal, and Luo Yuan had no opinion on it: "At that time, the location will be in the internal theater of our Crimson Building, and I will wait for the relevant personnel of your company with several leaders of Crimson." ”
"Then we're leaving. ”
Gong Yun finished saying hello and left Crimson.
Gu Lang, who had not spoken, suddenly said: "The Seventh University did not contact us, is it that they have reached some kind of tacit agreement against our crimson, I am a little worried about this situation......"
"No, it won't. ”
Luo Yuan shook his head and said: "We haven't reached the point where they feel jealous, and we don't want to participate in the distribution, it should be the same as Kyushu Entertainment, which has never moved, purely because the Seven Majors are not optimistic about our so-called cartoon." ”
Gu Lang nodded.
He also felt that the Seven Masters should not be so easy to target Crimson, or that even if they were targeted, it would be impossible for the seven to target them at the same time, their interests were not unified, so let the seven of them reach an agreement, unless the opponent was really terrible.
"It's mainly restricted by the cinema chain. ”
Luo Yuan was a little depressed: "If we had Meow Eye's Oriental Cinema Line, things wouldn't be so complicated, I thought that after the collapse of the Movie King, we would be able to harvest a cinema line, but unfortunately the funds are insufficient, and we can't compete for the ...... of the Seven."
"Boss. ”
Gu Lang suddenly looked a little weird and said: "Have you heard that Meow Eye has the idea of selling Oriental Cinemas, their chairman seems to be unable to hold on, the Seventh Congress wants to take over this cinema line, thinking of a way to force them to comply, so their life is actually not easy, if they really have a good film source, maybe they can't look down on our "Kung Fu Panda" ......"
Luo Yuan was stunned.
He didn't care about Gu Lang's last sentence, he only cared about Gu Lang's first sentence, Meow Eye had the idea of selling the Oriental Cinema Line, so if it was possible, could Crimson take over this cinema line, even if the existence of this cinema line could not change the overall situation, at least it could tear open an opening in one of the seven close to monopoly cinemas?
