Wu Ruide claimed that the split line system was very beneficial, and Zhang Ran also claimed that the split line system was the future of the theater chain, so the Paramount Act quickly became a thing of the past, and film critics and experts began to talk about the split line system. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Chen Qiqi, deputy dean of the Cultural Industry Research Institute of Peking University, said: "With the rapid development of the domestic film market, the reshuffle of the cinema chain is an inevitable trend. ”

Chen Qingsong, a well-known film critic, said: "The domestic film distribution model is single, most of them are distributed in a full range of cinemas, and each cinema arranges films according to market demand, without forming a differentiated and differentiated system, and the audience's different viewing habits have not been cultivated. In fact, in areas where the film market is developed, they are all distributed separately. In the next three to five years, the distribution of separate lines may be realized in China. ”

Time.com also quickly made a special topic on the line system, "What is the line system, and what are the benefits for the film industry?".

Many netizens on major film and television forums and post bars are also discussing this matter, but it is basically based on ridicule.

"It's really convincing these brick family beasts, two days ago when they attacked Zhang Ran and them, they had a monopoly and a Paramount bill, but now they all start to talk about the line system, as if they have studied it for many years. ”

A few years ago, several professors of Peking University translated the famous book "Nation-State and Violence", in which there is a passage, the famous ancient Chinese thinker Mencius said that there is only one sun under the whole world, and there is only one emperor above the people. Mensius obviously doesn't look like the name of the ancient Chinese, and some people think it's strange, so they go and look it up. As a result, the sentence was a quote from Confucius by Mencius: There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two kings in the people. The so-called Mencius is actually Mencius!"

"Hahaha, the famous ancient Chinese thinker Mencius, Mencius is estimated to be crying and fainting in the toilet! In fact, isn't it the same this time, the Paramount Act is not played by the Americans for a long time, and they still pick it up as a treasure, but they also use it to criticize Zhang Ran and them, and as a result, Zhang Ran and Wu Ruide beat their faces and swollen!"

The turmoil about the monopoly at the peak of the century disappeared invisibly in a burst of laughter, Huayi was naturally unwilling, but there was nothing he could do about it. Whether it is from the perspective of law, industry, or theater, there is no problem with the behavior of the peak of the century, and Huayi cannot find a powerful point to attack.

In the evening, Zhang Ran finished a meeting with the director team, and when he returned to the room, Zhang Jingchu was sitting at the table and surfing the Internet attentively, and she didn't even pay attention to coming in. Zhang Ran walked over and hugged Zhang Jingchu and said, "What is my daughter-in-law looking at? ”

Zhang Jingchu turned her head and giggled, "Do you know who the famous ancient Chinese thinker Menxiu is?"

Zhang Ran pouted and said: "I not only know the famous ancient Chinese thinker Menxiusi, but I also know the famous military strategist Chang Kaishen, and his lifelong rival poet Kunlun!"

Zhang Jingchu said curiously: "Who is that?"

Zhang Ran's hand moved around Zhang Jingchu's waist: "Don't discuss historical figures, let's play some interesting games!"

Zhang Jingchu slapped Zhang Ran's hand and said with a smile: "I hate it!"

The discussion about the split line system continues, but to Zhang Ran's surprise, Jia Zhangke also jumped out, and his Peking University Centennial Lecture Hall said when he made the first screening of "The Good Man of the Three Gorges" in the mainland: "Art films, commercial films, and animation films are all distributed in one channel, which is not normal in itself, if the split line system can be realized and the huge market can be further refined, then it can provide art film directors with opportunities to find audiences." ”

While praising the line-splitting system, Jia Zhangke also criticized China's commercial blockbusters: "We want the audience to see more movies that reflect real life, rather than people who wear gold and silver and fly around." China's high-input, high-output blockbuster operation model has gradually lost the imagination of the Chinese, and this kind of loss of thinking is very sad. In this age of worship and worship of gold, who cares about good people!"

After Zhang Ran watched Jia Zhangke's interview, he couldn't help laughing, this guy really touched "Golden Armor". Many people say that Jia Zhangke is Fan Binbin in the director's world, and it's really true, this guy is really good at touching porcelain and stir-frying!

However, Zhang Ran is not disgusted with Jia Zhangke's porcelain touching and hype, after all, it is not easy for art film directors to survive, and it is really important to understand marketing and hype. Jia Zhangke is very smart, he doesn't make much money making movies, but movies make a name for him, and the film festival helps him improve his style, and then he returns to his advertising agency with fame and style, shooting commercials for big customers such as China Mobile and Olay, so his life is quite nourishing.

Zhang Ran knew that Jia Zhangke and Zhang Weiping would soon start a scolding war, but he was not interested in the scolding war between the two, what he really cared about now was Huayi's movements. Huayi has been forced into a corner, and it should only be a matter of time before he accepts the Eagle Emperor's gambling agreement.

As long as the VAM agreement is signed, the ten years of hard work of the Wang brothers will come to naught!

The performance of "Wounded City" did not disappoint Zhang Ran, and the theater gave 45% of the film schedule on the first day. A few years ago, "Infernal Affairs" was a smash hit, directors Liu Weiqiang, Mak Zhaohui, and screenwriter Zhuang Wenqiang were known as the "Iron Triangle" combination, and now this combination is making a comeback, with the same police and bandit theme, the same strong star lineup, and the domestic audience is looking forward to the movie.

"The Ballad of Yunshui" is a blockbuster with the main theme, which belongs to the officially supported film, and a red-headed document was also issued on it, requiring enterprises, institutions and all parties to support the film's scheduling and screening. Warner was forced to withdraw from China because it didn't listen to the above arrangement and didn't schedule the main theme movie. Now which theater dares to disobey orders, plus the quality of "The Ballad of Yunshui" itself is good, and the attendance rate is okay, so it still got 18% of the film schedule this week.

"Ink Attack" is more tragic, the film schedule has plummeted from 53% to 26%, especially the Golden Harvest Cinema Line, the film schedule is only 0.99%, which is simply disgusting and dead!

Hua Yi jumped to his feet in anger, but there was nothing he could do. After this battle, Huayi truly realized the importance of the cinema chain, and if they want to break this dilemma, they must have their own screening channels. It's just that whether it is to set up a theater by itself, or to acquire or buy shares, it requires a large amount of money, and Huayi needs money now, so Wang Zhongjun accelerated the negotiations with Yang Zhicheng.

Other domestic film and television companies have also realized the importance of cinemas, and they have also begun to plan the layout of their own cinemas.

The cinema chains in the hands of China Film are basically joint ventures with others, and they do not have a controlling stake. Among them, Xingmei, a cinema co-founded with Xingmei, accounts for 60% of the shares, and China Film only accounts for 40%. Now China Film realizes the importance of controlling the cinema chain, and immediately proposes to inject capital to increase its stake to 60%. Xingmei is naturally unwilling, but if China Film wants to increase its capital and shares, does Xingmei dare to disagree? Xingmei can only watch as she loses the controlling stake in the cinema chain, but there is nothing she can do.

On December 2, the box office of the week was released.

"Wounded City" won 25 million in three days, ranking first. This score surpasses "Ink Attack", but not as good as "Disciple", but the first week of "Wounded City" is three days, while "Disciple" is four days, and in fact, "Wounded City" performs better. Judging from the feedback from all theaters, among the recently released new films, "Wounded City" has the highest evaluation from the audience, and the attendance rate is as high as 45%, which is very outstanding.

The film "Wounded City" was shot well, and the whole story is not only compact but also interlocking. Zhuang Wenqiang's script seems simple, but in fact, the structure is staggered and complex, and several clues intersect with reality and space. Although the truth of the facts is revealed in the early stages of the film, the director uses the reasoning technique of a Hitchcockian detective story, stripping away the ins and outs of the case, arranging it meticulously, step by step, and at the same time, the complex emotional clues between several pairs of characters are neatly cooked, and the subtle psychological confrontation and changes between the case and the emotions of the characters are convincing and not far-fetched.

The online audience's evaluation of the movie is also very good, except for a small number of viewers who feel that the movie is dull and find some faults, on the whole, it is still mostly praised, which is a good masterpiece.

The performance of "Ink Attack" was relatively dismal, due to the collapse of the three-day film schedule over the weekend, it only got 18 million box office, ranking second, with a total of 41 million in two weeks. In third place is naturally "The Ballad of Yunshui", the movie itself has a good reputation, plus many institutions and institutions chartered the venue, and achieved a box office of 11 million, with a total of 23 million in two weeks.

On Thursday, Aaron Kwok's "Father and Son" was released, which has a strong behind-the-scenes lineup, and was shortlisted for the first Rome Film Festival this year, the Busan Film Festival in South Korea, the Tokyo Film Festival and the Golden Horse Awards in Taiwan, and won the Best Artistic Contribution Award at the 19th Tokyo Film Festival, and also made the actor Aaron Kwok win the best actor crown at the Golden Horse Awards.

Although this movie is not a big-budget commercial film, with Aaron Kwok's fame and the blessing of many awards, "Father and Son" still got 12% of the film schedule, and this 12% is mainly cut by the ranking of "Ink Attack".

The film schedule of "Wounded City" and "The Ballad of Yunshui" has basically not changed, while the film schedule of Mo Attack has slipped to 16%. Zhang Yimou's masterpiece "Golden Armor" will be released next week, and other movies will almost become cannon fodder, and 60 million will become the unattainable target of "Ink Attack".

In this week, "Wounded City" won the weekly championship with 27 million with a good reputation, with a cumulative box office of 52 million, "Ink Attack" ranked second with 9 million, with a total of 50 million, "The Ballad of Yunshui" ranked third with 6 million, with a total of 29 million, and "Father and Son", which ranked fourth, only won a box office of 2.8 million, which can be said to be a fiasco.

On December 14, "Golden Armor" was officially released, causing a nationwide movie-watching boom. In order to watch "Golden Armor", many fans do not hesitate to spend time waiting in a long line, and the entrance of the theater is like a ticket hall of a train station, and there is almost no place to put your feet in the hall. People entering, leaving, and queuing up to buy tickets were noisy, and the theater was surrounded by water. Theaters are not only full during the day, but even at night.

Compared with the hot screening of "Golden Armor", the performance of "Wounded City" and "The Ballad of Yunshui" is extremely bleak, and many theaters continue to cut the film schedule, and the scheduling rate of these movies continues to decline. By Saturday, "Golden Armor" had more than 70% of the film schedule, and all other films were squeezed by "Golden Armor" to the point that it was difficult to survive, and "Ink Attack" had a lower schedule of only a pitiful 2.3%, which was no different from the next film.

On Monday, when the box office weekly list came out, everyone was stunned!

"Golden Armor" had a box office of 110 million in the first week, setting a new record for the box office of a Chinese film in the first week, and also becoming the first film in China to have a box office of over 100 million in the first week!
