"Channels, you mean expanding the scale of cinemas?"

"You think too much, I said a long time ago, we just need to keep the number of screens at about 800, we don't need that much..."

"If we had 2,000 screens, we wouldn't care about them!"

“... What you said, if I had 2,000 screens, I would definitely limit the producer's income!"

Zhong Lifang was speechless...

Where the butt sits determines whether the head is left or right.

Orange is making movies, of course, he is naturally on the side of the producer, if he is a theater, he must consider it from the theater side...

"Don't pick it out yet, "No Man's Land" will be released next month, and I don't want "No Man's Land" to become cannon fodder. ”

......

On October 20th, Time.com interviewed "No Man's Land".

After three years, Ning Hao successfully advanced to the 500 million club with "Manslaughter", and Xu Zheng's "Room 7 Gift" also had a box office of 680 million, successfully surpassing "Tangshan Earthquake" and becoming the fourth largest work in mainland film history - "Big Man 2", "Source Code", and "Painted Skin 2" ranked among the top three...

Huang Bo is a first-line male star.

By the way, Lu Xiaoran also came, he was originally waiting for the three of them outside, but he was also pulled in for a small interview:

"When I first filmed "No Man's Land", I was working on "Fruit Marriage Era", and I really couldn't spare time, otherwise, the male number one would be mine!"

“... Brother Bo and I have known each other for a long time, the first time I saw Xu Zheng was in the crew of "Stone", the three of us and Xiaojun went to eat Chongqing hot pot together, just as Ning Hao led Xu Zheng in, and then Brother Bo shouted, 'Zhu Bajie, Zhu Bajie is here!'"

"I really didn't expect that it would be seven years in this flash!"

"In fact, it is still very difficult to make movies, and more than 90% of them are still losing money, and less than 10% of movies can make money. Think about it carefully, what industry can lose money so high now? And there is a threshold for losing money, only 20% of people are eligible to lose money, because 80% of domestic movies can't get into theaters!"

"No matter how big the cake gets, there aren't necessarily more people who can eat it. ”

"Because the audience doesn't have the habit of recognizing the director, they only have the habit of recognizing the familiar, I heard that Guo Jingming and Han Han are both making movies, I can say for sure that it is impossible for these two people's movies to lose money, because the audience wants to see how these two teenagers who grew up with them are making movies now, not in the entertainment or artistry of the movie itself!"

"I'm now worried that a new force with no expertise has come in, giving everyone the illusion that the film industry is booming and making money. In fact, almost all of the people who make money are famous families, not famous directors, and real filmmakers are being marginalized. ”

"Therefore, I advise Ning Hao and Xu Zheng to slowly transform into producers, tap new directors, and not make real filmmakers chill..."

"A lot of newcomers have ideas. ”

"Give them the opportunity to practice, "Star You", I used 7 assistant directors, at first I had to stare at them on the spot, but then I didn't need it, and they grew up very fast!"

""No Man's Land" has been pressed for three years, and I can't talk about whether it is good or bad, I can only say that I will inevitably experience this..."

"Of course the censorship is very annoying, if "The Gift of Room No. 7" didn't blur the background, it would be impossible to pass the review..."

"Take your time, it's unlikely overnight. ”

Finally finished chatting, the reporters left successfully, and Lu Xiaoran looked at a few people: "Let's go, the hotels are all booked!"

......

The private room is large, luxuriously decorated, and steaming inside.

A few people sat down, and Xu Zheng asked directly: "I heard that you are preparing to start a war with the theater chain?"

Lu Xiaoran replied: "... Well, scramble for a split of accounts. ”

"Actually, we don't need to compete for a share of the account, the investment in the films we make is relatively low..."

"It's impossible to always do low-cost production, I'm ready to spend 200 million on "Outwitting Tiger Mountain"..."

Ning Hao nodded: "The cost of 200 million and the box office of 500 million are difficult to recover the cost." ”

"That's the problem. ”

"It's impossible for the theater chain to agree!"

“... yes, it's impossible for the theater chain to say yes... Congratulations to Director Xu first, "Room No. 7 Gift" won 680 million box office..."

Xu Zheng smiled, picked up the wine glass, and the four of them touched it...

Lu Xiaoran asked Huang Bo: "When will "Hunting" be filmed?"

Huang Bo replied, "Next month." ”

“... That's not going to be in time for the Berlinale!"

"Cannes, Venice can do it, I don't pick..."

“... You're so greedy, but Lao Mouzi doesn't have a good relationship with Cannes..."

Xu Zheng hurriedly asked: "What kind of movie is "Hunting"?"

"It's a movie about human nature..."

Lu Xiaoran gave a general description of the script of "Hunting", and then said: "I was going to publish this book myself, but unfortunately there is not enough time..."

"How do I feel like this is a bit like Search?"

"Yes, it's all about moral criticism, and I really wrote it after I wrote "Search"..."

Xu Zheng said casually: "When will you write me a script again." ”

“... Let's talk about it when I have time, I'm ready to tear up with the theater chain now... Negotiate!"

"Shall we jump out first?"

“... Otherwise, do you expect Huang Zhongjun?"

"Huayi's market value is higher than ours, and they have three movies for the New Year, "1942", "Zodiac", and "Demon Suppression", every step is a big investment, they are more urgent than us, of course let them take the lead!"

Lu Xiaoran shook her head: "... I never believed in Huayi's gang, this kind of thing has to rely on yourself. ”

"Last year, "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" asked to increase the proportion of the filmmaker's account, which caused the theater to be collectively disgusted, lost the support of the film scheduling, and finally lost more box office than it strove. ”

"Then willingly give up the profits?"

In fact, the great success of "Thai Embarrassment" on the first day of the original time and space was because the theater gave a large film schedule, why is the theater so good?

Because the light turned its back on the so-called alliance of the five major studios, it publicly surrendered, saying that it would not increase the proportion of accounts...

Xu Zheng glanced at Ning Hao, and then asked, "What do you say?"

Lu Xiaoran knocked on the table: "First of all, we must stand with the studio, and we will not contact any theaters in private;

“... Do you think Huayi will give in?"

"Definitely!"

Xu Zheng: "Then we might as well give in directly and win the favor of the theater!"

“... No, we have to let people know that we are disgusted with the majority of the theater chain, we are not making bad movies, and we are selling very well, so why can't we take the lion's share?"

"Also, in the future, I will make online movies and directly transplant the movies to the Internet!"

"Internet?"

“... Now the conditions are not ripe, it is better to wait until the 4G is laid... By the way, tomorrow's Hundred Flowers Award, you are all here!"

"Yo, you've won the prize?"

"A must..."
