Chapter 249: Sent to the door, happy (second update)

(Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a subscription!) οΌ‰

Movie publicity is very important, but every publicity must be based on the excellence of the movie itself, otherwise the publicity of a bad movie before its release will be hot, and as soon as it is released, it will expose its original form and be scolded, one person will be fooled, two people will be fooled, and the third person will hesitate. The movie has lost its reputation, and it is difficult to earn it back, such as a "One Step Away" that has been turned upside down more than ten years later.

But this qiΔ“ naturally does not happen to Chen Tiandu, "Infernal Affairs", as the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, has no quality to say, but the box office in Japan is not high, but it is also the peak of the Japanese box office of Chinese films in recent years. "Fast and Furious" is quite popular, and the box office of 5.6 billion yen can already rank among the top 20 in Japan even if the box office calculated in Japan before 2000 is counted.

Before 1999, the official box office in Japan was based on ration income. After 2000, it was in line with international standards, and the total revenue of theaters was used to express the box office. So most of the box office revenue of films before 1999 is extrapolated. The so-called rationing income refers to the part of the total box office revenue of the film that is distributed to the distribution company, and the rest is owned by the theater. Rationing income = total box office revenue x (50%~60%), the specific percentage is subject to the contract between the distribution company and the theater.

With the arrival of everyone to publicize, the box office of "Fast and Passion" once again became popular, and the almost stagnant box office number continued to climb.

The team's trip to Japan was very close, and the promotion of the film was secondary, and Toho intended to develop in-depth cooperation with Matrix, such as taking over all the distribution rights of Matrix in Japan. If there is a possibility of cooperating in a blockbuster film. Naturally, they are looking forward to it even more.

Talk about business. Chen Tiandu is now able to avoid it. Leave it all to someone else to talk about. He only told SΓΉ Kong Yiji, "I have taken a fancy to Gundam, and you bought me the film adaptation rights." Co-production, you are responsible for setting up a matrix Japan branch, and I will decide what you want to shoot. Also, ask Fuji TV if there was a premiere of a fashion drama called "Legal Heroes" in January......

"I've read the information and remember that it seems to be there. Starring Takuya Kimura. also set a ratings record, do you fancy it? It's not easy. Kong Yiji is not a guy who is full of "golden liquid", otherwise Chen Tiandu would not have taken him with him.

Chen Tiandu nodded, "It doesn't have to be that difficult to get, you can communicate with GuΓ² Dongbao and make a match with them." Toho has a stake in Fuji, and you look at it. I can only tell you that this TV series is very adaptive, you must buy the film copyright and don't make it too public, maybe it can be used as the pioneering work of the Matrix Japan Branch. ”

Kong Yiji was suddenly excited. asked: "Then can I be transferred to be in charge of the Japanese branch, I promise that the branch will be prosperous." Chen Tiandu suddenly got angry and kicked his ass. Fuck off! ”

With the current strength of the matrix, it is obviously a bit far away to shoot the "Gundam", and he doesn't like the shape and name of the Gundam very much, maybe there will be a sci-fi masterpiece movie called "Mecha Storm" and "The Legend of the Master" in the future, but it's too early to talk about these now, anyway, buy it first.

Not long after staying in the hotel, Niu Yingying brought Nobita over, "Chen Sang, there is a guest who wants to visit you, I don't know if you will meet you?" ”

"Oh, who is it?"

Chen Tiandu was idle, welcoming the visitors: "It is very happy to have guests from afar. ”

There were four strange men who came in, one looked to be about thirty years old, with a fat body and an obscene appearance, and a suit that was extremely incompatible with his body. It is none other than Eiichiro Oda, the original author of "One Piece". He was accompanied by a rich man in his fifties, who should be in a high position, could it be his boss? As for the other two, they were obviously not in the same group as them, and they were standing a little farther away.

A man in his forties, with long, trendy fluffy hair and a slightly freckleled face. Among the few people in the room, he looked at him the most dazzlingly. How to say it, Chen Tiandu felt that he seemed to look at himself with a faint sense of overexcitement in his eyes, that kind of look, as if the fans of celebrities were looking at idols. A slightly younger one, it should also be a status not low - this is nonsense, and if the identity is not enough, it can't be recommended by Nobita.

There is also Nobita who acts as a translator.

"Hello Chen Jun, please forgive me for taking the liberty of visiting? The contemptible president of the "Shonen Weekly JMP" magazine, Mita Kazukiro, has spoken to you before, this is ......"

"Welcome, welcome." Chen Tiandu listened to Nobita's simultaneous translation, interrupted his introduction, shook hands with a smile and said: "I know, this must be Mr. Eiichiro Oda, hello, I like your manga "One Piece" very much, but the update is too slow." ”

He made a small joke, which made the quite nervous Oda Eiichiro suddenly relax a lot, and the atmosphere was much more harmonious, "Please take care of me, Chen Tiandusan." I'm Eiichiro Oda, and it's really an honor for me to have Chen Jun like my manga. ”

Chen Tiandu said: "I was also going to visit "Shonen Weekly Jump", but I didn't expect you to come first. Please wait a minute, Yingying will entertain the guests for me. Then he looked at another person.

Nobita said, "This is Kazuki Hori, the eldest son of Howio Hori, the chairman of HORIPRO, and this is Mr. Kazuha Yamamoto, a member of the Tokyo International Film Festival Organizing Committee and Liaison Officer. ”

Chen Tiandu's eyes lit up, and he shook hands and said: "Fortunately, HORIPRO, as Japan's entertainment kingdom, has cultivated many outstanding artists, and I also appreciate your company's humane management model, and I am also very happy to meet Mr. Yamamoto." He couldn't guess what the two meant, so he decided to meet them first and let Oda wait for a while.

The place of conversation was shifted to the living room, and the conversation was slow over the fragrant tea ceremony.

Chen Tiandu likes this feeling very much, and plans to get one when he goes back.

Yamamoto Kazuxia handed out an invitation letter and said: "On behalf of the Japan Film Promotion Association, I invited Chen Jun to participate in the 14th Tokyo International Film Festival, and I hope that Chen Jun will be able to appear at that time." ”

Chen Tiandu is no stranger to the Tokyo Film Festival, the highest award is the Golden Kirin Award, and "The Matrix" won the award at the festival. The festival aims to train new talents, and to invite them to attend, but more for promotional purposes. His "Infernal Affairs" has already won the best Oscars, and if he is going to the Tokyo Film Festival to apply for "Infernal Affairs", I am afraid that the organizing committee will refuse him and persuade him to leave the opportunity to other young directors.

"Thank you Mr. Yamamoto and all my colleagues in the Japanese film industry, and I am very willing to share my shooting skills and experience with you, but unfortunately my schedule in October will be very tight. If you can't spare time at that time, please forgive me, but the other main creators of the movie will come to cheer. ”

After chatting for a while, Yamamoto got up to say goodbye, his goal was achieved, but unfortunately Chen Tian was not necessarily able to attend.

HORIPRO, Japan's largest performing arts firm, was successfully listed on the first section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. However, the chairman of the founder, Takeo Hori, is also in the stage of abdication, and it is not surprising that his two sons, Kazuki and Yoshiki, will inherit their father's business.

The Japanese industry is generally concerned about whether Waifu Hori's two sons will be able to keep their father's legacy and play the same hegemonic role as their father. Public opinion believes that the entertainment office as a business is more like a corporate conglomerate, and it is not so easy to operate, especially whether Yigui and Yoshiki, as heirs, can inherit their father's prestige and shake the situation is doubtful.

Sure enough, he is a Japanese entertainment boss, and the news is well-informed.

If the matrix wants to cooperate with Toho, it will inevitably need Japanese actor resources. AND THE MATRIX AS AN OUTSIDER OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T, SO HORIPRO POUNCED LIKE A SHARK SMELLING BLOOD. If the matrix wants to use Japanese actors to give priority to them, it can also help them support people, and there is no need to worry that the matrix will poach people, and what HORIPRO has to pay, at most, is a slightly lower salary, which is a better deal.

Compared to other studios in Japan, HORIPRO has a large number of young artists and is good at discovering new talents from various star-spotting events and auditions, but the music department is relatively weak, and there are many first-class and half-class comedians who have never been strong in terms of comedians. That's why the TV drama industry was sluggish in the future, and he was pressed back by Ai. But they treat their artists more humanely, and they will not abandon them because they are outdated. Many artists who have lost their popularity are still staying in the office and are supported by the office.

Chen Tiandu thought about it, he really had some plans in Japan, and it was indispensable to cooperate with the local head snake, so he verbally agreed. He said, "I have an academic discussion and interview at the University of Tokyo tomorrow, and Mr. Yigui can watch it?" This is the olive branch he thrown, the first attempt at joint hype, if you are smart enough, you should use this opportunity to hype up a few optimistic.

sent away a expensive, and this is the turn to get down to business.

"To tell you the truth, I also like painting very much, and my painting skills are not bad." While speaking, Niu Yingying took out a few sketches, and Mita and Oda, who are professional painters, knew at a glance that he was not lying. It's just that his painting style is more realistic.,But think about it.,After all, others make movies.,Of course, it can't be as illusory as Japanese comics.。

"May I ask Chen Jun, this should be a story, we at "Shonen Weekly Jump" are very willing to cooperate with you."

Chen Tiandu nodded, "I have a story that I want to publish a comic, but I don't have time to draw it myself, I want Mr. Mita to help me find a painter with the right style of painting, and all the story structures are done according to my requirements." ”

"It's natural, it's very easy." Mita nodded frequently, he just accompanied Oda to visit, but he didn't expect to catch a big fish. A little urgent, and a little hesitant to ask, said, "If possible, can Chen Jun tell me the story in advance?" ”

"Of course, the story is this." He has nothing to say to others, is he still afraid of being plagiarized? (To be continued......)
