Chapter 332: Fight for the New Year
Seeing that it was Gu Xiaofan, everyone immediately laughed. [No pop-up novel network]
Alas...... It's this messy little guy again, this guy is purely here to find a sense of existence.
Director Shen was in his spirits, and pointed at Gu Xiaofan excitedly: "Oh~ If you have any different opinions on the film, Director Gu, you can talk about it." "Finally there is someone who supports the proposal.
Gu Xiaofan stood up directly and looked directly at Han Sanpin: "I very much agree with Mr. Han's point of view, we must not open Hollywood movies to invade our market without restrictions......"
Gu Xiaofan paused, everyone knew that what he said later was the point.
Sure enough, Gu Xiaofan explained: "However, this discussion is not about completely opening up the market, but only increasing the number of films per year by fourteen, I think that with my country's market, the competition in the film market should be more intense." ”
When everyone said in their hearts, "This kid is finished", Han Sanpin was not as ruthless as Yan Chao, but looked at him with admiration and said, "Director Gu, do you think our current domestic film market is not fierce enough?" ”
"It's not enough." Gu Xiaofan said very naturally: "In our own market, our film culture resonance is far stronger than Hollywood movies, although we are inferior to them in blockbuster production, but in other types of films, they can be completely beaten to the ground, in our Chinese market, 34 Hollywood movies a year is definitely not invincible...... At least it won't completely squeeze our living space. ”
As soon as he said this, Wang Zhongjun, Bao Lijun, and Yu Dong all frowned, this Gu Xiaofan is just a newcomer in the film industry, and this is too much to say, how can domestic movies compete with Hollywood movies, I'm afraid that it's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.
You must know that 200 movies were released in China last year, but only 20 Hollywood movies can take half of the 3.7 billion box office, and 180 domestic films share the remaining half of the share, which is miserable enough, if it is increased by 14, then I really don't know how domestic films will survive.
Of course, Gu Xiaofan is not talking nonsense, he has seen a future news in the system:
On January 4, the Film Bureau of the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television released this year's film market data, with a total box office of 217 nationwide. 6.9 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 27. 51%。 There were 305 films released in the mainland throughout the year, of which 60 films had a box office of more than 100 million yuan, and 33 were domestic films. Domestic films box office 127. 6.7 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 54%. 32%, accounting for 58. 65% of the share is more than Hollywood movies. ”
Although the date of this news is unknown due to the system's blocking of information, according to the data, he can speculate that this is the year when the number of imported films has reached 34, and domestic films have indeed defeated Hollywood films at the box office.
In fact, Gu Xiaofan is of course confident.
Of course, these people on the scene don't know the development of the next ten years, and from their perspective now, they naturally feel that Gu Xiaofan is talking nonsense.
Han Sanpin looked at him curiously and said, "Director Gu, do you say this to mean that you think your "Chinese Partner" can survive in the summer file?" ”
"Of course, I don't think it's impossible to recoup the cost in the summer." Gu Xiaofan nodded, this is what he really wants to say, he said so many wild words, the purpose is to establish his prestige in the association, and in the future, he will have the opportunity to unite the strength of all domestic film companies to shoot some big productions, otherwise he is a small director, I am afraid that he will not be able to invite those top actors.
Of course, he has a deeper intention, but it's just not time to mention it yet.
Han Sanpin saw Gu Xiaofan's eyes burning, how could he not know that he had ulterior motives, and asked, "If you can recover the cost, what changes do you think our association should make?" ”
Everyone looked at Gu Xiaofan, thinking that this kid must want to say that if "Chinese Partner" recovers its cost, then everyone will have to add 14 imported films...... I'm afraid Han Sanpin won't agree to this.
But then Gu Xiaofan's words surprised everyone.
"If I recover the cost, then it proves that my Gu Xiaofan's strength is not weaker than Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kexin, and I hope that my New Year's file at the end of the year will also have a schedule for my works."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, it turned out that Gu Xiaofan just wanted to fight for his rights and interests...... This little guy actually wants to draw a big cake for the New Year!? Director Shen was speechless when he heard this.
Wang Zhongjun couldn't help frowning and interjected: "There is no causal connection between these two things, and they can't be talked about together." "This Gu Xiaofan is directly about to affect their Huayi's interests, which makes Wang Zhongjun unable to remain silent.
Bao Lidong suddenly shouted: "Why is there no causal relationship, you Zhongying and Huayi don't have the courage to put your own films in the summer file, and others will dare to do so!" If his films can compete with Hollywood movies, why can't his works be ranked for the New Year? Isn't the Chinese New Year file just to encourage our excellent domestic films? ”
Bao Lidong was saved by Gu Xiaofan just now, and naturally helped Gu Xiaofan speak at this time.
Ye Zhiqiu also said beside him: "I also think Director Gu's words make sense." ”
At this moment, all the directors in the conference room were shocked, looking at the situation, this Shangying is not alone...... Light Pictures and Wanda actually supported him, if this young Gu Xiaofan can succeed, it is not certain that he will become a third-party force in the association.
Han Sanpin listened and was silent for a while, thinking to himself, if he didn't know Gu Xiaofan, he would definitely think that this young man was a rhetorical person, but Qi Changhe personally recommended this Gu Xiaofan, and he had been observing this young man all these years.
Whether as a director or an actor, Gu Xiaofan is definitely one of the best talents in the younger generation......
Before, he Han had a heart of love for talent and wanted to recruit him into the film, but he didn't expect to be rejected by Gu Xiaofan, and now Gu Xiaofan is getting better and better, which also makes him feel that Gu Xiaofan's stay in the film is a bit overkill, anyway, this "Chinese Partner" has no chance to recover the cost, so it is better to sell him a favor.
Shangying spent 45 million yuan on investing in "Chinese Partner" this time, if the investment cannot be recovered, I am afraid that Gu Xiaofan will have no movies to make, and it will be time to recruit him to China Film.
Han Sanpin's love for talent was sincere, and he also paved the way for recruiting Gu Xiaofan in the future, so he finally nodded:
"Okay, if "Chinese Partner" can recover its cost in the summer, the association can consider arranging this year's Chinese New Year file to leave a schedule for you to release a new work."
In this way, in this treacherous and fierce conflict meeting of various forces, an agreement was finally reached.
Han Sanpin showed a ruthless and strong side, completely shocked the theater and the film bureau, and officially became the leader of the Chinese film industry.
And Gu Xiaofan also became a blockbuster, so that all film companies knew this rookie director whose heart was higher than the sky and was extremely arrogant.
Ye Zhiqiu of Wanda Cinema has been beating in shock, and when the meeting ended, he couldn't help but stare at Gu Xiaofan in a daze.
Gu Xiaofan noticed that this five-year-old and three-thick Manager Ye was staring at him, and he couldn't help touching his face, and said strangely: "What's the matter, Manager Ye, do you have anything on my face?" ”
Ye Zhiqiu realized that he was out of shape, and hurriedly smiled awkwardly: "It's nothing, I just sincerely admire Director Gu's heroism, to be honest, I heard Mr. Wang mention you before, and I always felt a little exaggerated in my heart, but now I find out that Director Gu is indeed the dragon and phoenix among people." ”
As he spoke, Ye Zhiqiu leaned into Gu Xiaofan's ear and whispered: "Don't worry, Director Gu, each theater can make its own accounts for the box office figures, and I will work with others to make your box office a return figure." ”
Gu Xiaofan frowned slightly, thinking that it was no wonder that Ye Zhiqiu supported him just now, it turned out that he had already had this hand, and he was really a profiteer.
But he didn't want to explain anything, he didn't actually need to do anything at all, he had to rely on his strength to recover the cost.
To be honest, Gu Xiaofan himself doesn't know what the box office of "Chinese Partner" is, but he thinks that if the movie he made can't even recover the cost, then what qualifications does he have to fight for "The Dark Knight" and "Game of Thrones"?
Everything is fate, it is decided by strength, the schedule is determined, "Chinese Partner" will be released in theaters next week, let's see if we can survive in the cracks of Hollywood blockbusters.
Gu Xiaofan was looking down and thinking, when suddenly a person came over and grabbed him: "Director Gu, is it?" Come here~~Something happened~! ”
