In November, with the success of "Saw 2", Ranfeng Group completely occupied people's field of vision during this period of time, and even Chinese film festivals such as the Golden Horse Awards were seized by it.

While the scenery of Ranfeng Group is infinite, Jiang Ran himself still maintains a clear mind and is not immersed in the praise of the media and peers.

Jiang Ran didn't pay attention to "Saw 2" after dealing with a wave of flattering and tempting people, and this movie is basically a thing of the past for Jiang Ran now.

His focus now has been on "Zombie Out" created by Ranfeng Group this year.

Now the promotion of this film has been slowly launched, whether it is with the trailer of "Saw 2", or arranging for Jiang Wei to lead the crew members to participate in the Hawaii Film Festival, they are all preparing for the release of "Zombie Out".

When the Hong Kong media was still surprised by the success of "Saw 2" and how much money Ran Feng Group made in this movie, Jiang Ran was listening to Zhou Rui's report in the office.

Today, Jiang Ran listened to Zhou Rui's report, in addition to the summary of the release of "Chainsaw 2" in North America, mainly to further understand, and now Ranfeng Group is promoting the effect of "Zombie Out" through the videotape of "Chainsaw 2".

"Mr. Jiang, it has only been nearly a week since the videotape was released in North America, and we have already made a profit of $300,000 on the videotape of this film, and I believe that there is absolutely no problem with the final profit of more than one million dollars this month. Zhou Rui said to Jiang Ran with a smile.

Jiang Ran was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Very good." This time, your North American company did a very good job in the release of "Saw 2" and the release of the videotape. ”

"It's our business, and it's right to do good. Zhou Rui was happy in his heart, but he didn't forget to say modestly.

Jiang Ran waved his hand and said, "No one can erase your credit, and at the end of the year, your reward will definitely be indispensable." ”

Jiang Ran generously made a wish to Zhou Rui.

Jiang Ran's words naturally made Zhou Rui even more happy. Since the establishment of Ranfeng Group, as long as it has made achievements, Jiang Ran will basically reward employees more or less every year, not to mention the management.

Now listening to Jiang Ran's words, Zhou Rui knows that the rewards of their North American company this year will definitely not be less, after all, this time in the release of "Saw 2", it is the North American branch that plays a leading role.

"Of course, although you have done a very good job this time, don't be proud, and take the experience and lessons seriously. To know that the global distribution experience of "Saw 2" is very rare. ”

"Yes, Mr. Jiang!" Zhou Rui nodded in agreement.

"The success of Saw 2 is welcome, but it's a thing of the past. Our main task right now is to prepare for the global release of Zombie Out. ”

Jiang Ran looked at Zhou Rui with satisfaction, nodded, and then turned his mouth to say.

"I see! Mr. Jiang. Zhou Rui replied with a straight face.

"During this period of time, we have bundled and promoted "Zombie Out" through the videotape of "Chainsaw 2", how effective is it in North America now?" Jiang Ran then asked.

"Mr. Jiang, from the beginning of the release of the videotape, we commissioned a special investigation company to conduct a follow-up investigation. The results of the survey showed that our strategy worked, and that a large percentage of those who watched the tape had the intention of watching "Zombie Out". ”

Jiang Ran is very satisfied with this result, because the audience of "Chainsaw 2" and "Zombie Out" overlap considerably, so anyone who buys the videotape can basically be regarded as a potential audience of "Zombie Out".

The curiosity of this part of the people has been raised, which will naturally drive the box office of "Zombie Out".

After meeting Zhou Rui, who had returned to Hong Kong from North America, Jiang Ran followed up and met Jiang Wei and others, who had returned to Hong Kong from Hawaii.

Jiang Wei, as the main person in charge of this trip, came to Jiang Ran's office as soon as he returned to Hong Kong, and reported to Jiang Ran in detail about the film exhibition.

Jiang Ran patted Jiang Wei's shoulder with a smile, and after warmly beckoning the other party to sit down, he asked with a smile: "Ah Wei, I have worked hard for you this time." You went to the Hawaii Film Festival this time, I don't know what the results were?"

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang! This is my job duty, not hard. Facing Jiang Ran's questioning, Jiang Wei, who had been in Hawaii for nearly ten days, hurriedly got up to thank him.

Then he looked slightly uneasy, and said hesitantly: "Mr. Jiang, with the help of Harvey Weinstein, the film festival activities at the Hawaii Film Festival have been carried out quite smoothly. ”

In fact, Jiang Ran has been tracking the situation of Jiang Wei and others in Hawaii this time, and Jiang Wei and Shi Nansheng will also report to Jiang Ran from time to time by phone, but some specific details are not clear on the phone after all.

Jiang Wei is now very worried in his heart, although he had roughly reported to Jiang Ran on the phone about the situation of this Hawaii Film Festival before, but in the face of the trip to Hawaii with few results, under Jiang Ran's blazing gaze, he still inevitably felt empty-hearted.

"This time, our "Zombie Out" participated in all the film festivals, and in order to promote the effect, we also invited some local newspapers and film critics to promote the film. ”

However, after all, the Hawaii Film Festival is a film festival dominated by literary films, and most of the media and audiences who pay attention to the film festival are literary film lovers. ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Wei cautiously glanced up at Jiang Ran, and stammered a little under Jiang Ran's blazing gaze and said again: "So... So, our publicity effect this time, um... The publicity effect is not very good. ”

Jiang Wei said that in the end, he no longer had the courage to look at Jiang Ran, and lowered his head deeply.

Jiang Ran himself has a conservative opinion on the publicity effect of this film festival, and he faintly heard this meaning on the phone before, and now after listening to Jiang Wei's confirmation again, he is not surprised.

Looking at Jiang Wei's ashamed expression, Jiang Ran shook his head slightly and smiled, he didn't intend to blame the other party, Jiang Ran thought that he had never been a harsh boss.

"What about other aspects, such as publishers and channels. Jiang Ran didn't say much on the issue of the movie, and turned the topic to the expansion of distribution channels, you must know that before leaving, Jiang Ran told Jiang Wei about this issue.

"The film festival should attract a lot of distributors, right?

For Jiang Ranyan, now that "Zombie Out of the Cage" has played a certain role in Western markets such as North America through the videotape of "Chainsaw 2", he has a certain confidence in the promotion of this movie and is no longer as worried as before.

Jiang Ran is now more concerned about whether the film distribution channels of Ranfeng Group will be broader in the future, which is related to the future development speed of Ranfeng Group.

After all, Jiang Ran, as a descendant with experience in two lifetimes, has many blockbuster movies in later generations, but he lacks a channel for the promotion and distribution of movies.

And now that Ranfeng Group has gained some popularity in the international film market through the success of the two "Chainsaws", it is time to expand distribution channels.

An international film festival like the Hawaii Film Festival is obviously a very good opportunity, and there are many distributors here looking for opportunities, which is suitable for a film company like Ran Feng that has a certain reputation but lacks connections.

"During the festival, there were a lot of distributors who took the initiative to contact us, and Miramax Film also introduced several very powerful distributors, and I talked to them and left their contact information. ”

Seeing that Jiang Ran changed the topic and did not mean to blame, Jiang Wei quickly replied while breathing a sigh of relief.

Jiang Ran nodded with satisfaction and advised, "The future work of your issuing company is very important to the entire group. ”

"You should not only look at Asia, but also look at the global film market, and you need to establish a complete global film market distributor and cinema archives, and focus on developing and maintaining these channels. ”
