Chapter 145: Box Office Poison

Zhang Xiaoye is full of confidence, on the contrary, if someone really wants to set up a theater to compete with them, then the source is something that has to be considered, and few people will have such confidence as them.

Although Xiangjiang can make hundreds of movies a year, there are not many really influential ones.

If you can't change the rules, you can only abide by the rules, and after the initial intention was reached, we discussed back and forth several times, and finally finalized the joint matter, and after reaching a consensus, it was a swaying press conference.

Although the union of the three theaters has caused a de facto monopoly in the industry, it is already a very good result for independent film companies, otherwise they would not have followed suit, and they also saw the benefits before they did so, and now it can be regarded as a goal achieved, and they are full of joy.

After uniting, the account sharing is still similar to the original, except for the complicated calculation formula of the first week and the second week, but directly according to the proportion of the total box office, the accounts are more clear at a glance.

Because there are too many interests involved, and on the whole it is indeed a good thing, the three-line alliance has become a grand event, and almost everyone is applauding it. For film companies, there is no need to worry about the problem of going to the file in the future, and for ordinary audiences, they can go to a certain theater if they want to watch movies in the future, which is also a lot more convenient.

If you change it before, even if there is a movie theater at your doorstep, it is not a problem, because if it is Golden Harvest, you will not be able to see the film of New Art City, if it is New Art City, you will not be able to see Golden Harvest's film, and if you want to watch it, you have to go to other theaters, and now this situation will not happen again.

After the three-line union, the just-finished "Dao Ma Dan" failed to be the first to eat crabs, and the first film to be released in three theaters at the same time was "Wishing you prosperity" by Xinyi City, a work directed and performed by Shi Tian.

Now the new art city is in its heyday, not only the quality is very high, but the annual output is not low, after all, there are already many people, and each of the seven monsters in the new art city is only responsible for one movie a year, and there are also seven.

In the living room, Zhang Xiaoye was looking at the materials of the cinema, Zhong Chuhong was tired of coming over, twisting around his neck, and said, "Isn't the matter of the cinema all settled, what are you doing with this?" ”

"In fact, there are still many inconveniences in this cooperation model, and the merger to establish a company Golden Harvest is not very happy, so it can only be like this for the time being." Zhang Xiaoye sighed, did he think it would be better to merge directly to form a new company.

"The matter of the theater chain has been decided, so you don't have anything else to do, right?" Zhong Chuhong asked tentatively, and Zhang Xiaoye said, "What are you going to do, why do I have a bad premonition?" ”

"What nonsense, I just want to introduce you to someone." Zhong Chuhong dragged Zhang Xiaoye, "Hurry up if it's okay, I'll take you to see him." ”

Zhong Chuhong grinded people Zhang Xiaoye couldn't stand it, she really couldn't refuse her request, but she didn't expect that the person she said she wanted to introduce was actually Zhou Runfa.

In the teahouse, Zhou Yunfa saw that Zhang Xiaoye was still a little restrained, although he was older, but Zhang Xiaoye's current momentum is like the sky, and he has just contributed to the three-line alliance, as if he has become the first person in Xiangjiang films.

Looking at the current Zhou Runfa, he is already very famous and has a certain status, Liu Dehua and Liang Jiahui have been supported by him in the early years, but the embarrassing thing is that he is now wearing the title of box office poison.

Since "Shanghai Tang" became popular, Zhou Yunfa has no works that he can do now, and the three movies he made last year were very average, and he is still more active in TV series, but this activity is only to say that he has acted more, and his influence is still limited.

Liu Dehua is his junior, but now the junior he once promoted has surpassed him in all aspects, in terms of TV series, the phenomenal "Xun Qin" and the "Legend of Sword and Fairy" that are now being filmed, the ratings completely suppressed Zhou Yunfa.

In terms of movies, he participated in "Summer Lucky Star", although it was only a cameo, it was already very good to be able to mix a familiar face in such a blockbuster, and the box office of "Extralegal Affair" starring him was 11.61 million, although the results were not outstanding, but they also received rave reviews.

The current Zhou Runfa movie is making a movie, and no one dares to ask him to make a movie, so he must be very depressed and unwilling in this situation.

Zhong Chuhong said directly: "You don't need me to introduce it, right?" Fa Ge is my friend, you help him. ”

Zhou Yunfa's box office is not satisfactory, in fact, it is understandable, he is a contracted artist of TVB, and the movies he makes are either produced by Shaw Brothers or cooperated with Xu Chenhua, the former is already in decline, and the latter, Xu Chenhua himself is a well-known director who loses money.

Zhong Chuhong and Zhou Runfa met when they were filming a movie, and the relationship between the two was very good, so she pulled Zhang Xiaoye over, hoping to help Zhou Runfa.

"Aren't your friends my friends?" Zhang Xiaoye said: "Brother Fa, I just have a play in my hand, how about playing the leading role if you want?" ”

"Huh?" Zhou Yunfa was completely stunned when he heard it, he didn't expect to get a chance to be a leading actor without saying anything, he now doubts whether Zhang Xiaoye understands himself and has heard of the title of box office poison.

"You have a play in your hands?" Zhong Chuhong was more surprised by this, she had never seen Zhang Xiaoye writing a script recently.

Zhang Xiaoye said: "Dao Ma Dan New Art City and Xu Ke have helped, I can't say nothing, right?" So in fact, I'm thinking about a script, as a thank you to them, if you are interested, you can also act, but let me tell you in advance, there are not many heroine scenes. ”

"What is the step in your current movie where the heroine has a lot of scenes? There are legends that you don't want to see actresses, and even if you are sexist. Zhong Chuhong rolled her eyes angrily, and Zhang Xiaoye said: "I didn't mean it, who can say it well when creating this kind of thing, this time I want to talk about the love between men, it is brotherhood, of course there will not be many scenes of the heroine." ”

The two of them flirted and scolded, and Zhou Yanfa wanted to pretend that he didn't see anything, but he couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "Zhang Sheng, are you saying that this is a movie about brotherhood?" ”

Zhang Xiaoye nodded and said, "That's true, but I'm still thinking about it, and it will take a month for me to take out the script and start filming in earnest, Brother Fa, you still have to wait patiently." ”

"This time is actually not long, thank you Zhang Sheng." Zhou Yunfa hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
