Chapter 60: Self-Distribution
"The box office on the first day was 610,000!"
"Yay!"
"It worked!"
"Great!"
When Wang Zifan announced "The Bitter War", the whole DreamWorks was overturned, of course they understood what 600,000 represented, since the superstar Li Xiaolong was born, the annual box office champion honor is exclusive to Golden Harvest, which is also the reason why Golden Harvest can rise rapidly under the suppression of the Tsan family, and now, DreamWorks easily won this honor, which means that they have the potential to compete with Golden Harvest.

It's been less than two months since DreamWorks opened, and it's been a miracle!
Wang Zifan said quietly: "At the same time, there is also bad news!"
Chen Baixiang joked: "Could it be that the Golden Princess Cinema is going to go out of business, right?"
Mai Dangxiong's heart moved, and he said tentatively: "Is there trouble with the release of the film?"
Wang Zifan showed a look of surprise, nodded and said, "That's true, just now Anle Cinema sent a lawyer's letter to the Golden Princess Cinema Line!"
The most worrying thing finally happened, Mai Dangxiong frowned and said: "This is troublesome, the movie copies we bought nominally belong to Anle Cinemas, but if we really pursue it, it is still the copyright of American companies, if Anle Cinemas and major American companies sue us for infringement, the judge will sentence us to lose the lawsuit nine times out of ten......"
"So serious?" Zhong Yihong's face turned pale, if he loses the lawsuit, it will be too big a blow to DreamWorks, what should Ah Fan do?
Chen Baixiang shook his head and analyzed: "I don't think it's possible, not to mention the attitude of the United States, even Lei Juekun will not let this happen, and if we lose the lawsuit, it means that Princess Jin loses the lawsuit!"
Mai Dang eloquently said: "I don't rule out the possibility that Princess Jin will abandon us!"
Chen Baixiang argued again: "What you said is too arbitrary, it is difficult to explain a copyright case like this, when Jiahe invited the star of the Shan family to shoot "One-armed Knife", such an obvious infringement, he did not win the lawsuit, if the gaffe really develops to that point, I think we can follow Jiahe, hire a lawyer with a lot of money, and fight a protracted war with them!"
Mai Dangxiong muttered: "That will cost a lot of money, and it will bring down DreamWorks!"
Zhong Yihong and Xiao Ruoyuan were stunned, sad and hesitant, as if DreamWorks would close down tomorrow!
I wanted to cool them down, but it was as if I had poured cold water, and the temperature dropped a little too much!
Wang Zifan waved his hand and said: "If you don't understand, don't be blind, the situation is not so serious, I have analyzed it with Boss Lei, Anle Cinema is just bluffing, don't care about them for the time being!"
"Bluffing?"
"Unlikely!"
Mai Dangxiong and Chen Baixiang made a big red face, and after a long time, all they analyzed was!
"It's not like you, first, we signed an agreement with Anle Cinema Line before buying the film, and if we want to say that we broke the law, it would also be Anle Cinema Line, because they sold us the film without the authorization of the American company! They didn't dare to make a big fuss, let alone sue us with the American company!" Wang Zifan gave them a reassurance, and frowned again: "I'm more worried about Jiahe and Wei's!"
"That makes sense!" Chen Baixiang nodded like a chicken pecking rice, he was the only one in the entire DreamWorks who had management experience, and the shopping mall was like a battlefield, and anything could happen! Not to mention that Golden Harvest, the Twin Clan, the Golden Princess, and DreamWorks were still competitors, and it was too normal to have a little trick behind them! At the same time, he was surprised that Wang Zifan was agile and reacted too quickly! If he had this kind of ability to anticipate the enemy at that time, he would not have fallen to today.
Mai Dangxiong was very shocked, what is the situation, he has been worried about the crisis for so many days in the eyes of Wang Zifan!
Xiao Ruoyuan frowned and said: "Afan, how can Jiahe and the Shan family say that they are also big companies, they won't do that, right?"
Chen Baixiang said: "You regard them as too noble, for the sake of interests, don't talk about us, they even do it with their own people, Hong Jinbao knows it, don't look at him now majestic, I think sooner or later he will be unlucky! Hahaha, he was relieved to let Jiahe manage the company's accounts, his brain was in water cough cough, I didn't say this sentence!"
Everyone was silent when they heard it, and it was not easy for them to evaluate Hong Jinbao.
Wang Zifan secretly admired Chen Baixiang's vision, in fact, Hong Jinbao made so many movies for Golden Harvest, "Five Lucky Stars" series, "Ghost Fighting Ghost" series, and also invested in "Mr. Zombie" starring Lin Zhengying, which made a lot of money, and finally the company closed down, and once the accounts were settled, not only did he not make any money, Nima!
That's a big deal!
Wang Zifan wrote down Chen Baixiang's strengths in his heart, and instructed: "Although Anle Cinema is bluffing, several of you have been low-key recently, try not to accept media interviews, especially English newspaper reporters, I also discussed overseas distribution with Mr. Lei just now, fortunately, Princess Jin does not have the ability to fully distribute at present!"
Zhong Yihong was puzzled: "Afan, Princess Jin doesn't release it for us, why do you seem to be happy?"
Wang Zifan said with a smile: "Of course I'm happy, Princess Jin can't do it, we'll do it ourselves! And as soon as possible, DreamWorks will have its own distribution network in the future, so you don't have to worry about being controlled by others, and you can even distribute other companies' films!"
Mai Dangxiong, Chen Baixiang, and Xiao Ruoyuan were all stupid, and they issued their own releases? Does DreamWorks have this ability? Thinking of Wang Zifan's consistent style, all of them turned pale, and they couldn't wait to turn around and leave, as if they had never appeared.
Wang Zifan said with a smile on his face: "Look at what kind of bears you look like, you don't have the spirit of dedication to the public, how can you get promoted and raised!"
Not to mention, the prince in a tunic teaches people a lesson, which is quite empty!
Mai Dangxiong smiled bitterly: "Afan, I joined DreamWorks to make movies, and you let me run the business, which is completely wrong!"
"That is, how can it be so simple to distribute films, not to mention so many countries in the world, let's just say Nanyang, there are many large and small film companies, if you want them to release our films, you must first ask them to see the copies, and if you don't say anything, people may not buy it!" Chen Baixiang also poured bitter water.
Wang Zifan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Ah Lak, do you seem to know very well!"
Chen Baixiang fainted!
Xiao Ruoyuan saw Wang Zifan looking over, and said with a wry smile: "Afan, you see that I am delicate and frail, can I ......?"
Wang Zifan smiled and said: "Can you arrange an easy job for you, no problem, Taiwan and Singapore are very close to Hong Kong, you can talk about these two regions first!"
Again?
There is still a baby in the back! Xiao Ruoyuan almost vomited blood.
Zhong Yihong plucked up his courage and said, "Afan, what about me!"
Wang Zifan said seriously: "You will stay in Hong Kong to assist me and do a good job in this port!"
Chen Baixiang thought to himself: Heavy color and light friends!
Mai Dang thought to himself: It's so unfair!
Xiao Ruoyuan thought to herself: Why am I not a woman!
"Hey, what kind of expression are you, let's do it, you negotiate a business, and I'll give you a bonus of 5,000 Hong Kong dollars, so satisfied!" Wang Zifan threw out the bait, and then unceremoniously handed over the distribution work in Malaya, the Philippines and other South Asian regions to Mai Dangxiong, and RB South Korea and other East Asian regions to Chen Baixiang, as for Europe and the United States, Wang Zifan felt that it was better not to die.
"Mr. Wang, I ...... Can I help?" Wu Mengda poked out his head, and his face was very empty!
"You?" Wang Zifan saw that it was Wu Mengda, and smiled in surprise: "Ada, are you sure you want to participate?"
"Resolutely serve the company!" Wu Mengda's tone was very resolute, in fact, he was going for a bonus of 5,000 Hong Kong dollars, and he couldn't wait to talk about the global distribution network, so as to pay off the debt at one time!
Wang Zifan pondered for a while, and could understand Wu Mengda's difficulty, and replied: "Then you can assist a few of them, and with their consent, you can also act alone!"
"Thank you, Mr. Wang!" Wu Mengda was full of passion in his heart, and kept telling himself that this was his last chance!
Big hair, I now understand the meaning of the phrase 'you solve it yourself'!
Wu Mengda had tears in his eyes, he was forced to be desperate to borrow money a few months ago, Zhou Yan sent a sentence of 'you solve it yourself' and almost forced him to commit suicide by diving, now that I think about it, it is really meaningful, but unfortunately the knot in my heart can no longer be solved!
