At the end of October, there was shocking news from Yanjing that the box office of "Looking for Li Feiteng" finally broke through the 100 million yuan mark three weeks after its release! It has become the inland film market in China, the first domestic film with a box office of over 100 million in history!

In October, the total sales of the Huaxia Film Market reached 378 million yuan!

As of the end of October this year, among the total box office rankings of Chinese films, "Looking for Li Feiteng" won the first place at a small cost and against the sky at the box office, and on the list, five were actually filmed by Tengda Media Group.

first place, "Looking for Li Feiteng", with an investment of 2,200 yuan, the current total box office is 103 million.

second place, "Love Me Indefinitely", with an investment of 8.95 million yuan and a total box office of 75.6 million.

The third place, "Big Names", invested 13.2 million yuan, with a total box office of 38 million.

Fourth place, "Ghost Shadow", with an investment of 12 million yuan and a total box office of 30 million.

fifth place, "Strange Tales from Liao Zhai", with an investment of 22 million yuan and a total box office of 1950.

……

In fact, this box office number is not very accurate, because this is the box office number jù fed back to Tengda Media Group by China Film Group, not what Li Feiteng's own company has seen.

Now Huaxia has not implemented the cinema system, and the box office is up to China Film Group.

It can be said that stealing the box office is no longer an insider, but the most clear in the industry.

The reason why Li Feiteng wants to get his own theater is to get all the money that belongs to them for a movie. Get both, not just a hard money.

That's right, Tengda Media Group. In fact, there is not much film investment in the mainland, at least, at present, Tengda Media Group invests in more films in the face of overseas markets, and the films released in the mainland can make him a lot of money. Instead, it's a foreign movie.

For example, the movie "My Sassy Girlfriend" has earned a lot of money for Li Feiteng and brought a lot of benefits.

And this year's Tengda Pictures produced four films. The total investment is about 50 million yuan.

This capital, if compared with the production of a 3D version of the movie "The Legend of Wukong", is not enough for the actors' remuneration of this film, but for the inland film market. It's definitely a lot of money.

Before 2001. The total investment in the Huaxia film market is hundreds of millions of yuan, and Li Feiteng's company occupies 50 to 80 percent of the total investment in an industry, which can be said to be a monopoly on film studios.

However, if there is no theater, then Li Feiteng is working for China Film Group.

Long ago, Li Feiteng was interested in the film industry. A lot of ideas have been put forward, such as the theater system. There is also a film classification system, he has proposed it, and now the theater system has finally been introduced, and the film classification system, he doesn't know how many years later.

At least, in the previous life, Huaxia was more than ten years later, and there was no film classification system.

Li Feiteng thought about it, and when his theater chain is full, when his influence is greater, he can strongly promote and reform the film industry.

For example, after the victory in this financial war, he has full credit and energy to promote the rapid advancement of such reforms.

Now, Tengda Media's five films produced in the inland area, with a total investment of 50 million yuan, have received a total box office of about 245 million yuan.

After deducting the cost and deducting it to China Film Group, that is, the money distributed to the theater distribution, Tengda Media Group can only get a net profit of 30 million yuan.

And the box office hit of a "My Sassy Girlfriend", and Li Feiteng's share can reach about 20 million yuan.

There will be such a big difference between the profits made from five original films and the introduction of one foreign film!

Because the introduction of movies is a kind of speculation, and the production of films is completely an investment.

Speculation is the most risky, whereas investing is less risky.

However, for Li Feiteng, his film speculation is the least risky, and the investment is the most risky.

Some of the films and television that Tengda Media speculated and acquired, including the copyrights of the works, are definitely of particularly high value, while the films invested by the production only account for a very small proportion.

In order to make Tengda Pictures transformed, Li Feiteng used the money earned from speculation to invest in the production of Zuò films.

is still a "The Legend of Wukong", which is expected to invest 5-800 million US dollars to make a 3D special effects movie.

It can be said that this movie, like the yet-to-be-released "Avatar", is a large-scale production, exotic, otherworldly, combined with Journey to the West, and a lot of fictional plots, making it a completely different mythological movie.

He can't guarantee how high the box office of this movie will be, because this movie is not a Hollywood commercial blockbuster, and it may have the same visual enjoyment as Avatar, but because of the differences between Chinese and Western cultures, it is destined that this movie may not be so good in the box office market in Europe and the United States.

However, the production cycle of this film will be very long, and when necessary, Li Feiteng will delay the release of the movie, and wait until there are more groups in the film consumer market in China, which is enough to ensure that the film will create a particularly high box office.

Not to mention much, Huaxia Continent can guarantee one-third of the cost of this movie, and Li Feiteng is very satisfied.

On a global scale, there are still many people who have a special understanding of Journey to the West and classical Chinese mythology, and this group of people can guarantee the remaining two-thirds of the cost, and Li Feiteng will laugh.

Because of the huge investment cost of filming the movie "The Legend of Wukong", Li Feiteng created and invested a lot of hardware equipment for this movie, including opening a lot of props companies and special effects companies.

After filming the movie, not all of this hardware is useless, at least, if Li Feiteng wants to shoot "The Legend of Wukong 2", or when other large-scale 3D movies, it will really save too much trouble. If you make another film, the cost may only be one-third.

Therefore, "The Legend of Wukong" is actually a movie that has too much to do with the relationship. Its production cost is equivalent to the total value of the entire Chinese film market in the next five years, or even eight years.

At present, the Chinese domestic film, that is, "Looking for Li Feiteng", a small production of Zuò, has won a box office of more than 100 million. became the first movie to exceed 100 million.

Li Feiteng is very clear that historically, before 2000. That is, the box office of the two movies "Shaolin Temple" and "Tunnel War" is very rebellious, and in terms of value, it is more than 100 million, but. As a matter of fact. In the real sense of China, the first film to exceed 100 million yuan is Tengda Media Group, which is currently working on "Hero".

The movie "Hero", of course, is not only invested by Tengda Media Group, but Li Feiteng has invested the most capital, with a total investment of nearly 20 million yuan.

He knows very well that his movie "Looking for Li Feiteng" has a box office of over 100 million. It's more of a consumption by fans.

It's okay for fans to consume once or twice, but they always make movies like this. may pounce on no one who knows Li Feiteng.

For example, many directors want to get Li Feiteng's authorization to make biographical and documentary movies for him.

For example, there is a screenwriter named Zhang Jiaming, according to news materials and various channels, wrote Li Feiteng's growth into a movie script for "Billionaire".

The story is very well written, and Li Feiteng also gave a high evaluation, but he just didn't give Zhang Jiaming the opportunity to make a movie immediately, but asked him to wait for three years, and when people's fans' desire for consumption is stronger, then release this very legendary documentary, which is likely to get a very high box office.

Otherwise, just after the movie "Looking for Li Feiteng", it will not be attractive to make such a movie of the same type immediately after.

What's more, Li Feiteng will not appear in any more movies, so even if he writes his story and takes him as the protagonist in a movie, he himself will not perform it again.

Therefore, to shoot a Li Feiteng documentary like "Billionaire Legend", you need to find someone who is recognized by many people and has to risk a lot of public opinion pressure to play Li Feiteng.

There is no way, Li Feiteng is not only alive, but also so young, looking for a young actor to play such a legendary person, how high acting skills, how good temperament, and how popular popularity it takes.

Otherwise, just Li Feiteng's fans will spray the actors and directors to death.

Li Feiteng also knows this, but he definitely won't make movies again, it's completely unnecessary.

He or, the documentary came out, which actually made Li Feiteng feel like he had hung up, if it weren't for the fact that such a movie could really make special money and help the film industry to a certain extent, otherwise he would not have been shot if he was killed.

"Tengda Films, there is no real foothold in Hollywood, if we want to break the existing situation of giants dominating the market, we have no other way but to be small and big."

In New York City, on a certain floor of the business building where Tengda Media Group is located, Li Feiteng stood in the center of the conference room, speaking to more than a dozen senior executives of Tengda Group around him.

The high-level here, more foreigners, such as the Wang brothers, naturally did not appear here.

is now in charge of the affairs of Magnesium Pictures, in addition to the highest president Wang Xuebin, that is, Fürth, who has just joined.

The rest are some producers with rich experience in production from large Hollywood film and television entertainment companies, including some gold medal agents who have managed many actors.

An entertainment company needs too many talents, and often it is not one type of talent, but a compound type of talent.

The so-called compound talent is one who can not only have business acumen, but also understand film art.

In addition to these two aspects, it is particularly important to have the ability to see and recognize people, especially the position of producer.

Of course, there are too many differences between Hollywood and China, and the least thing Li Feiteng worries about is the problem of film production, because Hollywood movies are already a perfect industry, as long as there is money and talent, everything is possible. (To be continued......)
