Chapter 668: Thirty-three Days of Broken Love
In the end, before leaving, Yao Ding finalized the investment share of the second part of "Kung Fu Panda", although the conditions offered by Ling Xiaoge were very harsh, but Tianhua still agreed.
Because no matter how harsh it is, there is still money to be made, and the key is that Tianhua Pictures needs such good news now, and as for the details of the cooperation, it is naturally impossible to disclose it to the outside world.
"Kung Fu Panda" is even known as the first animation IP in China.
No way, "Kung Fu Panda" is too pure.
Yes, it is a pure Chinese taste and Chinese theme.
Panda, that is the national treasure of Huaguo, kung fu, that is the unique culture of Huaguo.
Isn't that enough Chinese flavor?
Therefore, many people regard "Kung Fu Panda" as a landmark work of Chinese animation.
Previously, some people imitated island country animation, and some people imitated Hollywood animation, but the result was that the tiger was not an anti-dog, and then said that no one watched the traditional domestic animation of China.
So is "Kung Fu Panda" traditional enough? Kung Fu, martial arts, isn't that traditional enough?
Panda, our own national treasure, and it is unique to China.
Of course, no matter how hot the topic of "Kung Fu Panda" is, there will be times when it cools down.
Soon, a small news came out that Yao Ding, the former CEO of Tianhua Pictures, officially resigned.
This is not too strange, after all, in the past two or three years, Tianhua has really not done much in the hands of Yao Ding, and the project of "Kung Fu Panda", Tianhua did not keep up, and as a result, he missed the most profitable animated film in the history of China.
Therefore, someone must take the blame, so it is not so strange that Yao Ding resigned.
The main reason why this matter has attracted attention is that Yao Ding quickly joined Lingxiao Pavilion after leaving.
This made many people unable to understand, so some voices began to say that Yao Ding was poached by Lingxiao Pavilion.
But anyone with a discerning eye in the circle can see that Yao Ding's entry into Lingxiao Pavilion is definitely a huge benefit for Lingxiao Pavilion.
Because before, although Ling Xiao Ge's performance in the film business was the best in the entire film and television industry, there was a fatal shortcoming, that is, Ling Xiao Ge's business was too simple, and it almost relied on Lin Xiao himself to survive.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a larger star studio.
Previously, Lingxiao Pavilion announced the IPO plan, to be honest, many people are waiting to see the joke, listing is the ultimate goal of many companies, but how can it be so easy to go public?
Although in order to enrich its business, Ling Xiao Ge chose to enter the cinema industry and recruited Chen Ping's senior management from other companies, Ling Xiao Ge lacked a person who could coordinate the overall situation.
And now Yao Ding is here!
Yes, Yao Ding's vision in film may only be lackluster, but it does not mean that Yao Ding's ability is not good, on the contrary, Yao Ding's rich experience, especially the experience of operating the company's listing, at the same time, Yao Ding's administrative ability is very good, in fact, the reason why Tianhua Pictures and Ahri Pictures have a lot of funds, but they have been defeated repeatedly, the biggest reason is that they lack professionals in the film industry.
Interlacing like mountains is not something to be said casually.
What is the reason why those film and television giants can still stand firm under the siege of so much capital? It is their experience, they are familiar with the stars, the entertainment industry, and the film business.
In fact, Ahri and Tianhua also discovered this, so the candidate to succeed Yao Ding was dug from Lin Xiao's previous rival, Tianxing.
However, Tianxing was not polite, and also dug up a vice president of Tianhua's cinema chain.
Ahri's side, the marketing director of Xuanhuang Film and Television, and the vice president of investment of Dadi Media were also dug up.
......
"I'm not good at movies, but the biggest problem of our company at present is that it has a single business, but a single business is also the best that our company can do at present, and it is also the top in the industry, which we must maintain, so Lin Dong, you still need to worry more about this aspect. Yao Ding said with a smile.
Lin Xiao nodded.
The biggest advantage of Ling Xiao Ge is that it is strong in movies, and its performance is the best in the film and television industry, and the horror is that it has not lost money.
It's all a big profit.
However, in addition to this, Ling Xiao Pavilion is still a lot worse in other aspects.
It's Sanle Animation, which currently has two big gold mines, "Kung Fu Panda" and "Peppa Pig".
There is also the newly established special effects department, which will be divided into separate subsidiaries to set up, however, the special effects company will definitely continue to spend money at present, however, "Kung Fu Panda" is enough for the special effects company to eat for a long time, and Lin Xiao still has a lot of film plans that need special effects, which have not been taken out for the time being.
Well, the main thing is that Ling Xiao Pavilion is really not short of money now, and the key is that as soon as Yao Ding came in, the first fire burned was that the company would not pay dividends this year! All of it was used to develop the company, including the acquisition of theaters, investment in more film projects, and so on.
However, the company's current projects are enough, with three movies in production, and four with the addition of "Kung Fu Panda 2".
So there are no new projects for the time being, "Huaguo Partner" and "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love" The former Nan Ke's speed is relatively slow, and it has not yet been completed, and the latter Chen He's speed is still very fast, plus the filming of "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love" is really not difficult.
Small-budget movies rely on the plot, but "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love" relies on lines, but the plot is blunt, that's it!
However, in terms of expectations for the box office, Lin Xiao is looking forward to "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love", because Lin Xiao was surprised to find that there are very few similar films on the market at present, and it can even be said that there are none.
At the beginning, "Those Years" was also the first to eat crabs, so the last one ate was full.
At present, there are many youthful films like "Those Years", but there are very few so-called healing movies like "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love".
"Thirty-three Days of Broken Love" is set for Valentine's Day, but it makes many people wonder, is it really good to play broken love on Nima's Valentine's Day?
However, the result greatly exceeded people's expectations, and Ling Xiaoge's side directly used this topic gimmick to hype, and it really heated up this topic.
However, the Valentine's Day schedule is actually the Spring Festival schedule, and domestic blockbusters are piled up.
Yes, although "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love" was written by Lin Xiao and produced by Ling Xiao Pavilion, many people don't think that this movie can make a big difference, after all, Lin Xiao did not participate in this movie, nor did he have a director.
The male and female protagonists of "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love" are not too famous celebrities, although the director Chen He himself is not a rookie director, but he is really not very famous.
Therefore, several film and television giants really didn't take "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love" too seriously.
But for Ling Xiao Ge and Chen He, "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love" is of great significance.
