Chapter 45: The Sensation (1/6)

Warner Bros., presumably the American version of Ahri Films...

A good hand of cards is played into a piece of!

The high-level infighting is unbearable, from 06 to 18 years, within 12 years, there have been five presidents!

Take a look at several successful films of Warner, and find that their success basically has nothing to do with Warner's execution.

The original time and space, "Inception" and "Interstellar" relied on Nolan's awesomeness, the "Middle-earth" series also relied on Tolkien, and "Harry Potter" relied on Rowling, after all, the original version was awesome, and "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" just wanted to squeeze out the IP of Harry Potter.

For destroying IP, Warner is really unbeatable.

It's really incomparable to the execution and decision-making of Marvel next door.

Marvel can make customers comfortable before they can lie down and make money with peace of mind, whether it is a trailer or a movie plan, it will make fans orgasm again and again, and at the same time attract passers-by fans!

What kind of decision can Warner's attitude of taking one step at a time and looking at one step at a time?

Batman v Superman is a failure!

But did they listen to the audience?

No, fan petitions turned a blind eye, whether it was the previous replacement Zack or the director's cut.

Although Hollywood commercial films are made to make money, but looking at the various decisions this time, I am afraid that I am not crazy about money, there are 120 minutes in the front, and 300 million in the back, the result?

Five-cent special effects...

I knew on my knees that I was trying to cheat money.

The execution is extremely poor!

In an investment with a budget of at least 300 million, it is impossible to use suspicious people and employ people!

A fan petition not to let Zack shoot "Batman v Superman" was ignored by Warner, but Warner refused to give power to Zack, which led to a half-finished joke.

The success of Nolan's Batman trilogy is also because Nolan insisted that Warner give power to him, in fact, when the first Batman response was not so good, Warner was already planning to interfere, and Nolan insisted that the trilogy must be completed independently, so as to create the Dark Knight of the second part.

Therefore, even if it is Nolan, an original IP production like "Inception", Warner Bros. also needs to investigate, after all, Nolan has only proven himself in "Batman", and without this IP, can he still do it?

Moreover, Warner executives insisted that Nolan shoot the third part of "Batman" first...

Of course, Jeff Robinoff was still very willing to support Nolan, so after Peak proposed that he could contribute $80 million, Warner Bros. still agreed to the "Inception" project...

It's just that the total production company has been replaced by Summit Entertainment, and the $200 million publicity...

And with the success of "Iron Man", Warner Bros. prefers to believe in well-known IPs, such as Superman, Batman...

The original time and space is also "Inception" funded by Legendary Pictures, and Warner Bros. is responsible for the distribution...

……

Brother Xun's movements have attracted a lot of attention recently!

Her contract with Dongyang is about to expire, and half of the entertainment industry is watching...

This kind of actor, no matter how he moves, will cause a shock.

According to the agreement between the two parties, the studio is 60% owned by the company, and its operation is completely independent and not subject to the company's control, with a period of three years and a certain percentage of profits paid every year.

In fact, the company signed contracts with several artists who opened studios in this way.

As for profits, to be honest, Zhang Junsheng can't look at the income of artist agency at all.

Even if it is Zhou Gongzi, the lord who has an annual endorsement fee of up to 60 million, he doesn't care very much.

"Twilight" is a drama with a net income of nearly $400 million!

How much does it cost to convert to RMB?

Three billion!

If he really wants to make money, he will sell his stake in Facebook now, which has multiplied several times, and recently Li Ka-shing's Harbour Investment has been contacting Zhang Junsheng to take his stake...

Zhang Junsheng spent almost $80 million to take 18% of Facebook's shares, of course, after several rounds of financing, the shares have been diluted to about 12%, once listed, Zhang Junsheng will immediately become the richest man in the country...

The contract is signed like this, and the artist operates independently...

But there are too many factors outside the contract, what trouble does she really have, can the company ignore it?

Fortunately, Yu Guangguang was eliminated by Brother Xun, and Wang Shumei introduced her to Guo Tingting - this is the behind-the-scenes hero who single-handedly created AB!

Very professional, no problem at all to cope with the operation of the studio!

……

On December 1, in Beijing, Yuehua held a press conference in Yanjing with the theme of "moving forward hand in hand".

The so-called hand in hand is that Zhou Gongzi joins Yuehua...

There are a lot of reporters who have arrived, not only because Brother Xun's coffee position is different, but most importantly, Yuehua's labor costs are very high!

Every time Yuehua holds a press conference, everyone is happy to cheer!

At this time, the press conference hall that can accommodate hundreds of people is already full of reporters, and Zhou Gongzi's influence is not only in the mainland, but even in Xiangjiang and Taiwan.

The venue was very lively, the parties had not yet appeared, and the media people got together in twos and threes to exchange news.

"Tsk, Yuehua is terrible this time, and directly signed Zhou Gongzi!"

"I signed Uncle Ge last year, and Chen Hao and Zhou Gongzi this year, if he signs Ma Xiaokang one day, it will be awesome!"

"What is Ma Xiaokang, if you want me to say, sign a plan directly!"

If Zhang Junsheng heard the discussion of these people, he would probably be surprised,, how do you know that Lao Tzu is interested in Zhang Yimou?

Just arrived at ten o'clock, and Liu Zimo, the host of the press conference, walked on stage wearing a white Dior dress and holding a microphone.

Liu Zimo has always served as the host of Yuehua's large-scale events, and last year, she received several interview variety shows, "Entertainment Scene", "Best Scene" and "Film and Television Billboard"...

"Distinguished guests, hello everyone! I am the host Liu Zimo..."

Hey, every time this kind of large-scale event, the host is the most unpopular role, although she exists to control the scene, but on this occasion, who wants to listen to an unknown host beep?

Liu Zimo, who had short hair, kept smiling and raised his voice: "... Now welcome to our Yuehua Media Chairman Zhang Junsheng!"

The son of the plane in a black suit walked on the stage with a slight face.

"Haha, hello everyone, it is estimated that everyone should also know the purpose of this press conference, that's right, we will form a strategic partnership with Zhou Gongzi, and Yuehua will fund Zhou Xun's personal studio!"

Rumble!

Sure enough, it's heavy news!

Although the grapevine has spread, the moment it was really announced, it still shocked many people!

Zhou Xun, one of the four major flowers!

Then, Zhou Gongzi appeared, not only that, but she was also followed by Xu Jinglei...

What is this for?

Is one Zhou Gongzi not enough for you to?

"In addition to Zhou Gongzi, we also signed a contract with Xu Jinglei for three films, and we will invest in Xu Jinglei's next three films..."
