The mainland is a backyard, and Chen Tiandu certainly knows that there is unlimited potential here. However, compared with the current box office performance of mainland theaters throughout the year, which is not as good as the box office performance of Chen Tiandu's movie, no matter how good the sales here are, it is the icing on the cake.

In 2000, the box office of Chinese films exceeded 1.06 billion yuan, nearly 200 million more than the original time and space, and Chen Tiandu alone contributed 40%. In 2001, the box office earned 900 million yuan in November, and the authorities are looking forward to waiting for Chen Tiandu's film to be released, so that they can break the 1 billion mark before the New Year, and it is better to increase it a little more than in previous years. - Why don't you make a lot of effort?

There is no future in sight, large-scale losses, large losses, the media almost disdain domestic films, the film industry has turned to TV dramas, studios have become warehouses, movie theaters have been turned into dance halls, and film actors and actresses have gone to TV dramas......

In such a harsh environment, "Infernal Affairs" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" have sprung up, plundering the box office in North America, making countless rich people red-eyed, and it seems to have injected a shot of strength into domestic films.

But even Chen Tiandu's movie appeal, if you don't curb piracy and don't hook fans into the cinema, you won't be able to make money. In the fight against piracy, the country is helpless, but the matrix itself must be careful, almost every one of his movies is being released to increase the crackdown, but there are still risk-takers who take risks for the sake of profit, and clear pirated discs are still flowing out in small amounts.

The official website of the matrix released the latest news, "A few days ago, the 'Matrix Anti-Piracy Foundation' received a report from the public, and the Guangzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau detected a serious piracy case. Fifteen people involved in the case were arrested. The United Shenzhen Market caught three pirated disc gangs. Lianshen City Arrested 108 Piracy Group Criminals...... Successfully prevented eight cases of pirated clear discs from leaving the market. According to the confession of the criminal, the clear disc leak was all stolen by the insiders of the theater, with names and surnames, and the matrix has been reported. Some of the desperate tumors have been arrested, but there are still three suspects who have escaped early after receiving the news. The Matrix Legal Department has drafted a lawyer's letter to formally file a lawsuit against the above five theaters......"

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the industry, and then several public security organs also released news. This was confirmed.

Southern Weekly reported: "It is said that the local public security bureau received a sudden report from the matrix party, and all the investigations were clear, and the police just went in to arrest people." According to insiders, many of them are professional private detectives from abroad, because private detectives are not allowed to save in China, they are all professional private detectives hired from abroad, just like Ni Yongxiao's two detectives in "Infernal Affairs". Then recruit retired special forces in the country for professional training. At present, it is already a professional company with forty or fifty people, and it still hangs the banner of 'matrix security' to the outside world. ”

"They've been keeping an eye on these pirates since last year. and gather evidence. Much more professional and dedicated than the police. Even the timing of the entire report was calculated uniformly, and finally the joint police cracked this largest anti-piracy group case since the founding of the People's Republic of China in one fell swoop! The whole story process. You can make a thrilling TV series! ”

In the past, people were still suspicious of the fact that the matrix spent a lot of money to hire 100 "private detectives" and adopted the method of anti-piracy, in order to prevent the fall of the horse, there was a slight restraint when "The Matrix" and "Infernal Affairs" were released, but "Fast and Passion" couldn't bear the commotion and began to return to the old business.

But there was not much rumor from the outside world, just when the pirate dealers thought that the people were being stared at people was boasting, so the insiders began to collude with the pirates to commit crimes, and they happened to fall into the net.

Matrix announced, "The successful move of the Matrix Anti-Piracy Foundation will benefit all domestic film and television industries. Our foundation has spent millions of dollars in order to plan this operation, and we will invest more in the future, and we will fight piracy to the end! We welcome all film and television companies to participate in the united front against piracy, so that the miasma of piracy can be completely removed from China, the label of 'piracy is rampant' in the domestic market, and a peaceful and clean competitive environment will be created in the film and television industry." At the same time, we also urge the relevant departments to increase the intensity of legislative crackdown, our laws are very sound, but most of the time it is a piece of waste paper, which is really embarrassing. ”

"People's Daily" specially interviewed the matrix, Chen Tiandu has already been in Hong Kong to promote the new movie, they can only interview the new general manager Miss Fan Yiyi, she said, "At present, all the sources of funds of the Matrix Anti-Piracy Foundation are from Mr. Chen Tiandu, there is no profit, and the annual investment is in the millions. However, at that time, Mr. Chen only proposed a feasible plan, and he did not know the specific anti-piracy work. Of course, he didn't have that much time to focus on these things. Most of the work of the General Manager of the Anti-Piracy Foundation is handled by Mr. Chen Yongping and Mr. Anthony. Anthony is a professional security consultant at Blackwater and a private investigator, so I can't reveal the details for his personal safety. ”

"In fact, we are not in the pursuit of fame and fortune, Matrix Musou is just a small emerging company in China, far less large and influential than other film companies. If someone is willing to do it, we don't want to be the first bird. Everyone understands the proverb of 'the spear head comes out of the bird', but Chen always told us, 'Someone always has to go to everything, just think that I am too young, born calves are not afraid of tigers, and can have the opportunity to make mistakes'! ”

Fan Yiyi was interviewed by Shui Junyi, and talked about this matter with a generous attitude, which undoubtedly set off the temperament of a beautiful female executive, "What we have done, everyone can see it, and we are really doing practical things." A few years after Mr. Chen's debut, fame and fortune have become secondary. To put it mildly, "Fast & Thrill" has exceeded $886 million at the global box office, and DVD and merchandise sales are also climbing day by day. The box office of one of our movies is the highest box office of several years in the two sides of the strait combined, but this is not a glorious thing, but it is very embarrassing. ”

"We wanted to be low-key and not want to be too showy. I just want to do things quietly, just like what I said in my job advertisement. Let's contribute to the box office of Chinese films exceeding 100 billion. ”

Finally, an invitation was issued: "It is completely impossible to fight piracy by relying on our small company. It depends on the participation of the whole people. Raise awareness. We sincerely hope that more like-minded people can join our front. I hope that more fans can go into the cinema to watch movies and buy genuine DVD Blu-ray discs. Each of our productions is well-made, and neither the movie ticket price nor the Blu-ray disc price is very expensive, but the experience that may bring the audience is not what a pirated disc can bring you. ”

The People's Daily reported on the front page the next day, moving the news of the premier's visit to Africa to the second place, which is really quite rare.

This report. also made a little publicity for "My Sassy Girlfriend", so that more people know about Chen Tiandu's movie. Even the "People's Daily" reported on the incident on the front page, and it seemed that there were really people at the top who were paying attention, and the officials below immediately heard the Xuange and knew what they meant, and cooperated with the regulations that should be promulgated, and those who should engage in cooperation also moved.

China's film account sharing system is still very fucked, and the producers work hard to make movies, but the final box office share is far less than half, while foreign film producers can generally get about 5.0~6.0 account sharing.

Moreover, China's existing share of the film is only 3.5 percent for producers and distributors. Many movies may even have even lower actual share numbers. The domestic recession is not a new topic, and there is no money to be made. No one makes movies, and they all rely on imported movies to fill the faΓ§ade, no wonder they can't get up.

The share of the movie box office is shared by the theater chain, the producer, and the distributor, and 8.3% of the movie box office needs to be handed over to the special fund for the film, as well as the tax of consumption tax, and the next share can be launched. Of course, this share is only applicable to the primary market in large cities, and in the secondary market, the share is not the same...... The share of the secondary market may only be about 20-35%, so the first thing to calculate now is the share in the primary market.

At present, Chen Tiandu is the hottest in China, and each movie has a box office of over 100 million, but "Infernal Affairs 2" at the best time failed to break the 200 million mark, and "My Sassy Girlfriend" seems even more impossible. After the fame of "Infernal Affairs", the box office of "Infernal Affairs 2" was better than the first part in China, once reaching 195 million, but it was not up to 200 million.

The matrix suddenly did this, which actually made the faces of the big guys above very gloomy.

Some people question why the film special fund collects so much for each movie. It's a headache for the radio and television bigwigs, how can I explain this to you, does it mean that Moutai doesn't need money to invite guests to eat and drink? Immediately, several people jumped out and announced that the Foundation would increase the focus of the crackdown on piracy next year.

Han Sanpin was also disgraced by this incident, and a few of the people who were arrested were theater employees of China Film. He called Chen Tiandu, but Chen Tiandu was no longer in China for a long time, who is the bird of you.

Of course, Han Sanpin naturally couldn't excuse a few pirates, and he couldn't wait to slaughter these goods. He just complained, why didn't he say hello before making trouble, making him very passive.

However, Huayi Brothers applauded this time, without Chen Tiandu, they were the pioneers of domestic anti-piracy. Chen Tiandu's move won praise from the industry, and Feng Cannon took the lead in opening his mouth: "Well done!" Everyone knew it was a thankless task, but someone did it, and I applauded him. In fact, it doesn't matter how much money you spend, the important thing is that it is done beautifully and neatly. If you don't catch it, you don't know, it turns out that there are so many tumors shrinking into the turtle...... At the end of the year, when my movie is released, I have to keep an eye on it. ”

Wang Zhongjun announced that Huayi would join the Anti-Piracy Alliance and sponsor the Foundation with 1 million.

Zhang Weiping also clapped his hands in the new picture, "Okay, in fact, when "Hero" was released, I planned to do this, and the little brother took the lead. But it's really done beautifully, and we need to catch all the cancers. ”

The corruption of domestic cinemas and the accession to the WTO have accelerated international integration.

The cinema system has been put forward again, and it is expected that the cinema will be opened next year, which is the place where Chen Tiandu must fight! With the reputation of anti-piracy, it is bound to win!

For a while, Chen Tiandu's whole family took action. (To be continued......)
