Chapter 248: Suppressed (2/3)
Pearl City, 12th floor of Pearl Building.
The general manager's office of Pearl Cinema has a spacious room with exquisite decoration, and all kinds of celebrity calligraphy and paintings are hung all around, revealing luxury and gorgeousness everywhere.
A middle-aged man in his early fifties in a suit and leather shoes sat behind a large desk, looking at the figure in front of him, sitting up straight from the boss's chair slightly, with a little hesitation on his face.
"You mean, lower the number of films in "People in Embarrassment"?"
On the chair in front of the desk, a middle-aged woman in her early forties nodded affirmatively: "Mr. Zhang, how much does "People in Embarrassment" infringe on our interests, I believe you can also feel that the pressure on your co-production with Hollywood this time must be no less than ours, right?"
Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Liu Yan rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang is too worried, you are the ninth, and there are nearly eight theaters in front of you who have agreed to cooperate with us."
After all, Li Qingfeng's kid is too unpopular, and Director Chang is now negotiating in Wanyuan Cinema, I think, no matter what, this matter should be able to be promoted.
What's more, it's not for Mr. Zhang to do anything loss-making, how can the two directors of the emperor list be better than a hairy boy's movie?
No matter how bad it is, aren't there still three Hollywood blockbusters? There is always a substitute, and a small cost of only 10 million yuan can make big waves."
It seems that the other party really plans to trample the other party to death at one time, Zhang Hui glanced at this woman deeply.
As the leading leader in the cinema chain, Wanyuan Pictures controls 3,000 movie theaters across the country, with more than 20,000 large screens, and can provide more than 100 million moviegoers every year.
Once the other party really agrees to reduce the proportion of films, it will be a major blow to "People in Embarrassment".
"That's it, Manager Liu, let's talk about this tomorrow, if the attendance rate of "People in Embarrassment" on the first day does not reach 70%, then I will reduce the number of screenings of the other party by 40%"
Zhang Hui groaned slightly, and gave a plan that had two sides and a way out.
An attendance rate of 70% is definitely a big challenge for a small-budget movie, but if it is really achieved, then he will not be unable to get along with the money.
He has a joint venture with Hollywood, but it is only the kind of millions to test the waters, although Li Qingfeng's remarks are like a sharp edge, but they are harmless to him.
Liu Yan was a little helpless, but she also knew that this was the best result, and it was impossible for the other party to really give up all the film scheduling rates, this was a business, not a playhouse.
"Then I thanked Mr. Zhang on behalf of Chang Dao, and I look forward to more in-depth cooperation in the future."
Zhang Hui stood up and shook hands with Liu Yan, and said with a smile on his face: "Definitely, definitely, I hope to have more contact with Manager Liu in the future."
After speaking, the hand rubbed the other party's palm as if it was nothing.
Half-aged, the charm still exists, he has the best taste.
Liu Yan seemed to be unaware of it, and smiled extremely charmingly.
"That's an honor......
......
"Director Chang, I can't make a decision on this matter, we at Wanyuan Pictures are looking at the quality and attendance of the film, not the cost, please forgive Director Chang"
Looking at the young man in his early twenties in front of him, Chang Yunjie smiled extremely brightly, and he didn't care at all when he was rejected: "Gu Shao, this matter is easy to discuss, anyway, Li Qingfeng's kid will definitely not have any achievements, you see ......"
Gu Haoran shook his head and directly interrupted Chang Yunjie's words: "Director Chang, it's not up to you to decide whether you have any results.
If the other party's film is not good, we will naturally lower his film scheduling rate, but if the movie attendance rate is high, we will also increase his film scheduling rate.
I don't care what grudge you have against him, it doesn't exist with me, I said, do you understand?"
As the successor of Wanyuan Pictures, how can he be moved by the other party's words in three or two sentences, and besides, a director of the princely list is just what influence can he have here?
Unless the bigwigs on the emperor list come, otherwise, a Chang Yunjie is far from qualified.
Chang Yunjie smiled, although he is the director on the princely list and has great influence, but he does not dare to be presumptuous with these really large companies, not to mention that the other party is still the successor of Wanyuan Cinema.
"That ......"
Gu Haoran raised his eyebrows, directly interrupted his follow-up, and said lightly: "Director Chang, since this is the case, I won't keep you, next time I have the opportunity to talk to Director Chang."
If Chang Yunjie didn't know that the other party was sending off a guest, it would have been in vain for so many years.
There was a bit of indignation in his eyes, but he still had to smile on his face.
"Then I'll take a look first, Gu Shao, you're busy, you're busy"
Gu Haoran looked at the back of the other party walking out of the office, a few traces of disdain rose in his eyes, a director who has no fart skills, he dares to chirp crookedly, if Li Qingfeng comes, Lao Tzu will invite him to a cup of tea.
He has never been accustomed to these directors who have no ability and only know how to roll money, especially when it comes to co-produced movies, he has the same view as Li Qingfeng.
I haven't eaten my own culture thoroughly, and I'm still a combination of Chinese and Western, incompetent waste.
When I returned to my desk, the unturned computer was playing a video of Li Qingfeng's opening speech.
Chang Yunjie probably wouldn't have dreamed that he would stupidly hit the muzzle of the gun.
The same thing happened more than ten times on this National Day, a day of universal celebration, and under Chang Yunjie's unsparing promise, some of these theaters refused and some agreed.
Most companies will not get along with money, even if Chang Yunjie of the Wang Hou Bang goes out in person, it is impossible for the other party to give up the opportunity to make money.
But I have to say that the original "People in Embarrassment" was a normal film scheduling rate, but after Chang Yunjie's visit, it quietly dropped by 20%.
This means that before Li Qingfeng started to be released, the income on the first day dropped by two layers, and before he knew it, a big net slowly shrouded him.
However, this time it all depends on the quality of the movie, and the quality is passed, so all Chang Yunjie's suppression will be in vain.
If the quality is a little worse, it will definitely take a heavy hit at the box office.
The variables in this are all elusive.
