On the evening of Wednesday, January 4, CCTV had just finished broadcasting the weather forecast.

At 7:40, the focus interview was launched.

Speak with facts, focus interviews!

These words are very familiar to the people, and the news reported every day is also closely related to the people, and the ratings have been very good.

In the previous issues, it was reported on grassroots medical reform, fake eggs, fake wine, and dozens of luxury villas built for leaders in poor counties with office land... A series of news, which appeared on TV today is indeed a director, a movie.

The host first introduced the state of China's film market in recent years, as well as the comparison with other markets in the world.

Then came the movie "Edge of Tomorrow", a series of records, including the hit of the global film market.

The scene cuts to a modern office, where Tang An is sitting in a chair, facing the camera for an interview.

"The domestic film market is still developing, and since the beginning of the new century, earth-shaking changes have taken place in the past decade. Nowadays, going to the cinema has become an entertainment project that penetrates into people's lives......"

"In fact, our domestic filmmakers and audiences should not be presumptuous, since the commercialization of the film has become the world's fifth largest film market in just over ten years, the total domestic box office sales in the past year has exceeded 12 billion, I believe that next year my country will surpass Japan, India and other countries to become the world's second largest film market. ”

Tang An's voice on the TV was calm and firm, and there was a strong confidence in his eyes.

Some viewers outside the TV who didn't pay attention to the movie also put down the remote control at this time and did not change the channel.

Now is the prime time in the evening, and it is approaching the summer vacation, and all major TV stations are broadcasting high-quality TV series, and most of the people who can watch this kind of news related to people's livelihood at this time and do not watch TV dramas are elderly people.

In an old-fashioned ordinary community in the 2nd Ring Road of Beijing, focus interviews are also being broadcast on TV.

The grandfather of the head of the family looked at Tang An, who was talking eloquently on TV, and smiled, "This young man is a little interesting, catching up with Europe and the United States, what he wants is this energy." ”

"Grandpa, don't you know that one of his movies has more than 200 million dollars at the box office. The child next to him, who was playing with his mobile phone, replied casually.

"It seems that there was a war scene just now, what movie is it at this time?"

"Science fiction movies, fighting aliens, grandpa, I'll take you to the cinema tomorrow to watch it. ”

"No, no, no, I was dizzy when I saw that person wearing glasses last year. ”

......

On TV, the host was still interviewing.

"Director Tang, what type of film do you think is more suitable for overseas screening?"

"This should not be about the genre, first of all, we must face overseas audiences, so that they will not have a gap when watching movies, and figure out what foreign audiences want to see. ”

"Can you give an example?"

"For example, action movies and costume movies are both genres that used to sell better overseas, but there are also differences. ”

"Brother Cheng Long and Brother Li Lianjie both have different styles, one is a kung fu comedy, and there are a lot of deadly stunts, the latter interprets the spirit of traditional martial arts best, the movements are precise and fast, the clouds are smooth, and the breath is more ornamental. ”

Another example is the "Ip Man" series, which is very popular in Southeast Asia, because Southeast Asian audiences are more receptive to Chinese culture, while most audiences in Europe and the United States can't understand the movie, don't understand Ip Man's approach and the background of the times, and just want to see "good-looking" actions. ”

......

Tang An was not modest at all, and analyzed all the major genres of costumes, comedy, and horror and suspense.

If this is an ordinary director, who dares to brag with the appearance of pointing at the country, he would have been named and scolded a long time ago.

Tang An was also watching TV at this time, watching himself brag.

But he is qualified to blow like this, just like Brother Ma and Lao Wang.

He also knew that there would be people who would see him upset, that was for sure, but he wouldn't bother with it.

If there is a person who scares about him, he will waste time talking about it, and it will be too bad.

Unless they are close to the top first-line directors, otherwise they are millions per minute, why bother with them.

There is also a public relations department, and there are a large number of fans.

Those stupid film critics bite people for money and fame, and it's what they want to really care about them.

When a dog barks at you, do you still yell at it?

......

The next day, many media reported on Tang An and the "Focus Interview" on "Edge of Tomorrow".

But the bigger news is that the total box office of "Edge of Tomorrow" in the mainland exceeded 1 billion yesterday, suppressing all voices in the entertainment industry.

Although I have long known that breaking 1 billion is inevitable, when this moment really comes, many film and television companies, media, and audiences still feel a little incredible.

From 400 million to 700 million to 1 billion, the span of these three records was too fast, and it only took two years.

In the office of Berner Films, Yu Dong sighed.

The three documentary films were either directed by Tang An or invested by him, and the total box office of the four Han and Tang films reached 2.5 billion last year, which is simply scary.

Yu Dong put away the joy after the successful listing, and now the new pressure is coming again, more than a year, when he and Guangxian were busy going public, Hantang rose, and the speed was much faster than he thought.

Guangxian became a giant in the film and television industry in just two years, but the other party has the strongest publicity channel in the country, and Hantang only has a Tang An.

Yu Dong knows that from now on, it is impossible for them to cooperate like last year, Berner and Guangxian have obtained nearly one billion financing, and this money must increase investment in film and television production, and the competition for this year's schedule will be more intense.

Tang An has expanded the publicity and distribution channels this year, and he will not distribute the movie to them.

Competition is competition, and those who can cooperate should try to cooperate as much as possible, after all, it can't be suppressed.

A few days ago, Tang An asked him for a role in "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", a supporting actress who didn't have many scenes, and he agreed after discussing it with Xu Ke.

Yu Dong smiled bitterly, looking at the series of numbers on the document in front of him, and he didn't know whether it was right or wrong that he didn't "block" Tang An with Hua Yi in the first place.

In 2010, the total box office of the mainland film market was 12 billion yuan, and the box office of domestic films was nearly 8 billion yuan, which was twice that of imported films.

The box office of movies produced by Han and Tang Dynasty alone is as high as 2.5 billion, accounting for 20% of the national film market and 31% of the domestic film box office, which has caught up with Bernard and Huayi at their peak.

There is also the ambitious Wanda, who has taken Wu Yusen and Ning Hao under his command, and more and more people are eating this piece of meat in the film industry.

......

On this day, he took Chen Guozhang, president of the group, Wang Wei, chief financial officer, and half of the legal department, and a team of more than 20 people to Singapore by plane, with the purpose of winning the largest part of Tudou's shares!
