Chapter 88: The Beginning of September (5/5)

In fact, for the audience, relaxing the quota is a good thing.

When you watch a movie, you rarely care which country it is, as long as it's good!

And it is generally believed that the main reason for the poor quality of domestic films at this stage is that the domestic film market is huge and the competition is insufficient.

It's really not like this, when a bunch of big bad movies come out in the future to make money, you know that there is still merit in being scolded for bad movies now...

"Mr. Huang, goodbye!"

"Mr. Wang, goodbye!"

At the end of the meeting, Mr. Lu waved goodbye to the bigwigs, and then discussed with Zhong Lifang whether to do a cinema!

Obviously, the theater chain will usher in a major benefit!

And it's even stronger, in the past, if you didn't schedule films for me, if you didn't give me a little more accounting, I could still ban you, but now, you love to seal it or not, Lao Tzu only screens Hollywood blockbusters!

However, Mr. Lu is always not optimistic about the theater chain...

He is more optimistic about the Internet.

According to the auxiliary device, the cinema may be a high-end consumption place for a few people in the future.

A large number of movies will flow to the market in the form of Internet TV, computers, and mobile Internet terminals on demand.

The reason may be that film investment is becoming more and more risky.

Production costs are polarized, and the market is only left with independent productions and huge budget productions.

A medium-sized film can pay for itself through the Internet...

Zhong Lifang felt that it was necessary to acquire a cinema chain, and she couldn't hand over the terminal screening market to others...

Now they are paying attention to the operation of the industrial chain, and even the ponies have begun to enter the theater chain...

"When it's listed, if you have money, buy a theater to save trouble and worry!"

“... Who do you want to buy? You know that you can make money by doing a cinema chain now, who will sell it to you?"

"To be a theater is to throw money, there is no technical content at all, and you can enter the game at any time!"

In Lu Xiaoran's view, or the fact is this: doing a cinema is to decorate and arrange, update equipment and seats, replace posters and light signs, what is the technical content?

However, the auxiliary device also said that the market outlook pays attention to building a complete industrial chain...

Besides, the most important thing at the moment is the promotion of "Witness to All" and the trip to Venice of "Sunburning".

......

The National Day file belongs to the mature big schedule, and the movies that have been set this year: "Xinhai Revolution", "Witnessed by the Whole People", "The Legend of the White Snake", "Painted Wall" and "Summer Joy" promoted by Huayi...

"Xinhai Revolution", during the propaganda, the main theme is 'Cheng Long and Li Bingbing's passion play' - passionate hand-to-hand combat, Cheng Long and Li Bingbing go into battle naked.

Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Xinhai Revolution...

A gift film led by Shanghai Film Studio!

probably saw that "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" and "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Party" made a lot of money, and Shanghai Film Studio also wanted to take a piece of the pie with the theme of the gift film...

The cost of $30 million...

Rich!

It's really rich!

"The Legend of the White Snake" might as well be more, in order to support Mr. Lu's classmates, Boss Yang spent a lot of money and asked Li Lianjie to play Fahai, spending 200 million to create a "Legend of the White Snake"...

"Painted Wall" is obviously just a small investment of 30 million, pretending to be a sequel to "Painted Skin", all kinds of publicity...

As for "Summer Joy", it's all about holding Tianbao!

It should be last year, Tianbao signed a contract with Huayi, and Huayi held a grand signing ceremony, with the title of 'Next Stop, Queen of Heaven'!

is to push her to the top according to the level and resources of the Grand Slam!

That's why people say, 'It's not going to be smooth along the way, otherwise, it would have been a grand slam a long time ago'...

Your product, your fine taste, isn't it very reasonable?

Orange has little confidence in "All the People Witness", from the perspective of genre, this is a movie that is biased towards court defense, and the slogan of the propaganda is also 'the first court drama in the mainland', I always feel that the effect is not enough...

No way, the subject matter is naturally a bit serious.

Even if the propaganda team tries to hype up the topic of the rich second generation, the effect is very little...

After all, a year has passed since the 'Li Gang' incident.

According to Zhang Jin and Brother Song's predictions, if the box office can reach 50 million, it is already very good!

Then, on September 6th, Li XX (Providence) beating incident broke out, and the spearhead was directed at the father of the famous singing artist Li XX!

Spark a heated discussion online!

it!

The orange propaganda team is crazy, this is sleepy and someone sleeps on a pillow!

Hurriedly contacted Lu Xiaoran, who was far away in Venice to attend the film festival, the latter thought about it and only said, 'This kind of work of guiding public opinion is best handed over to outsiders, and you can send the matter to the newspapers and magazines in the United States and let them publish it!'

Like Li Gang, Red went abroad!

......

This year's Venice Film Festival is in the spotlight.

"The Sea of People", "Sister Peach", "Killing Gold", "Saidek Bale", "Scorching Sun", five Chinese films were shortlisted for the main competition unit!

A third of the places in Venice!

There is quite a feeling that the Chinese film boom has arrived.

Cao Baoping is not a newcomer in Europe, and "Li Mi's Conjecture" won the Best Director Award in the New Director Unit of the San Bastian International Film Festival.

Of course, "Scorching Sun" can be shortlisted in Venice, mainly because MK2 is awesome!

Let's put it this way, how high is the threshold for the big three in Europe?

Take the Venice Film Festival as an example: there are basically more than 1,200 films registered every year, and no more than 80 films can participate in the final competition for awards.

And the awards referred to here include the main competition, the horizon unit, the future lion unit, the Venice Day unit, and the International Film Criticism Five units.

So where do these films come from?

1200 works, watch them one by one, who has time to step on the horse?

If the film festival wants to maintain attention, it is naturally indispensable to direct blockbusters.

In fact, the works of those famous directors who can be called have been divided up by the three major film festivals before the start of filming, and the remaining amount is the opportunity for the newcomers.

Even if it's a newcomer, it depends on whether you have the value of cultivation!

The three major film festivals are very happy to train their own direct directors, watching the rookies go from being penniless to being known all over the world, accompanied by the rise in the popularity of the film festival itself!

In addition to the above two situations, if you want to go to Europa's core film circle to brush your face, either you have a big name to recommend, such as Jia Zhangke, who was sent to Venice by Takeshi Kitano.

Either it is a film invested by the government, a large production company or a TV station, which has the hardest foundation, and there is no need to even greet the person in charge in advance, just let the film selection assistant read the opening information, and it will ensure that it passes the first round of screening.

Master works, potential novices, recommended by acquaintances, and the filmmaker brushes his face, there are only these four ways to go, and nothing else.

A completely rookie director, with his own work, through the normal registration process, and then suddenly shortlisted for the three main competition units in Europe, that does not exist at all.

MK2 is a company that specializes in the distribution of literary films.

He has been popular with Kieślowski's "Red", "White" and "Blue" trilogy, as well as David Lynch's "My Heart is Wild" and "Mulholland Drive".

And he has a soft spot for Chinese films, and has maintained good cooperative relations with literary and artistic celebrities such as Hou Hsiao-hsien, Yang Dechang, and Wong Kar-wai.

The films they are pushing can at least be shortlisted for the main competition unit!

As for winning the award, it depends on the judges' taste!
