Chapter Fifty-Eight: Scheduling
Xu Jinxuan enlightened Zheng Kong for a long time, and Zheng Kong's face returned to normal. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
But Zheng Kong was still as nervous in front of Xu Jinxuan's parents as soon as he went out, but when Xu Jinxuan's father talked about the source of "Those Years" and related commercial matters, Zheng Kong, who was high-spirited in the past, came back.
Not only was he nervous, but he didn't confide in various professional terms and talk to Xu Jinxuan's father.
"The advantages, disadvantages and various problems you mentioned above are very pertinent, so are you optimistic about the revenue after the release of "Those Years"?" Xu Jinxuan's father still agrees with Zheng Kong's professional knowledge, so he wants to test Zheng Kong's vision.
"Optimistic." Zheng Kong said affirmatively.
"How optimistic you are, can you be specific." Xu Jinxuan's father said.
"500 million box office." Zheng Kong groaned slightly, and then gave an answer that Xu Jinxuan herself was surprised by.
What is the concept of a box office of 500 million, Huaxia has a box office of more than 500 million yuan every year, and there are definitely no more than 20 films, and they are also divided by foreign films and some top animated films, so basically the works of some top directors or first-class directors are matched with kings, queens, first-class, second-rate stars starring in this box office.
Although there are dark horses, they are really pitiful, and they may not be able to produce one in a few years.
You must know that all the investment in the movie "Those Years", including actor fees, props costs, publicity costs, etc., does not exceed 50 million yuan, and generally theaters charge about 20% of the box office for the release of movies, and the scope of this charge is not fixed, usually determined according to the quality of the film, the level of directors and the cast.
It's like the 700 screens that Zheng Kong negotiated in five secondary theaters before, and the fees charged for the screen are the two layers of the movie box office. And the fee charged by the 300 screens of the first-class theater is that the box office of the movie is two layers two.
500 million box office, even if Xu Jinxuan's father collects 20% of the money for movie tickets, the movie "Those Years" will make a net profit of 450 million, which is equivalent to the company that Zheng Kong has worked hard for in the past six months.
Xu Jinxuan's father looked at Zheng Kong, who was full of confidence, and didn't know whether to say that Zheng Kong's heart was good, or to praise Zheng Kong's ambition, and finally turned into a sentence: "Then uncle will wait and see."
The four of them had a lunch, and in the afternoon, Zheng Kong and Xu Jinxuan's father went to SH City with Pian Yuan.
The second-tier cinema chain operated by Xu Jinxuan's parents in SH City has a total of more than 360 screens, which are scattered in the second- and third-tier cities around SH City.
Xu Jinxuan's father took Zheng Kong to the headquarters of the cinema chain, a four-story building located in the third ring road of SH, with four big characters cobbled together with neon lights on the building: Fengxuan Cinema.
Xu Jinxuan's father looked at the four big characters that were a little mottled, and said with emotion: "This cinema has been established for nearly 20 years, I started from scratch back then, fortunately, there are a few brothers around me to accompany you, but unfortunately they all dispersed later, fortunately, someone aunt followed me when I was the most miserable, and then I established this Fengxuan cinema with your aunt, and I have been working hard until today." When I registered this theater, there was Xu Jinxuan just now, and when my parents were both looking forward to their son Jackie Chan and their daughter to become a phoenix, the name of the theater came from like this. ”
"Parents lick their calves, as they should." Although Zheng Kong is an orphan and has never enjoyed the love of his father and mother, Zheng Kong agrees with this sincere emotion.
"See and smile, people, it's easy to sigh when you're old, let's go, let's go in." Xu Jinxuan's father smiled heartily.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and although there are few people watching movies, the theater chain is still busy.
The Spring Festival file is very important for movies and theaters, and theaters are generally shift rest systems, at most one day in the Chinese New Year's Eve, and they have to go to work on the first day of the new year.
As soon as Xu Jinxuan's father entered, the staff inside nodded respectfully and shouted, "Chairman."
Xu Jinxuan's father was not impatient, and responded one by one.
Xu Jinxuan's father took Zheng Kong to his office, and then he was cleared, Xu Jinxuan's father said to Zheng Kong: "You sit down casually first, the films for the Spring Festival have been arranged, and all the people in charge are also preparing for the New Year, I'll call them first."
"Okay." Zheng Kong walked around the office to take a look.
The office is quite large, about 50 square meters, with a row of bookshelves on the left, a row of sofas and coffee tables on the right, and a few landscape paintings hanging.
Among them is Xu Jinxuan's father's desk, with a golden toad on the left and a motto on the right.
Zheng Kong saw from the details that Xu Jinxuan's family actually listened to Xu Jinxuan's mother, because Zheng Kong didn't see female employees within fifty meters of the office, and the most terrifying thing was that Zheng Kong actually saw a camera in a flower pot in the office, which was very conspicuously placed in front of Xu Jinxuan's father's desk. Zheng Kong didn't have to think about it to know that it was Xu Jinxuan's mother's masterpiece.
After a while, several middle-aged men knocked on the door and walked in.
"Hello chairman, aren't you going home for the New Year? How did you come back again? A middle-aged man at the beginning asked after seeing Xu Jinxuan's father.
"Lao Qiu, a few of you sit down, talk about something, Zheng Kong is here for uncle." Xu Jinxuan said very majestically.
A few middle-aged men who came in didn't dare to ask more, so they found a place to sit down, and glanced at Zheng Kong from time to time, thinking who this was? It seems that he has a good relationship with the chairman.
"The Spring Festival is coming soon, and my brothers all know that this time is the busiest, and now there is something to do." Xu Jinxuan's father opened his mouth and said bluntly: "The schedule of the Spring Festival file needs to be changed, now there is a movie, starring my daughter, which needs to be added to the Spring Festival file, and the film schedule must be the most, I hope that the company's more than 360 screens will have no less than six screenings per day from the beginning of the Lunar New Year, and then increase according to the situation." Now you have any questions. ”
As soon as Xu Jinxuan's father's words were finished, several middle-aged men were embarrassed and bitter, but Xu Jinxuan's father also said clearly, this is my daughter's starring role, and several middle-aged men had to say euphemistically.
"Ahem, the chairman is like this, of course there is no problem with this movie starring your daughter being added to the Spring Festival file, but this scheduling rate is really a bit high, which will affect the scheduling rate of other films."
"It's okay to show all screens, but six shows a day can only increase and not decrease, which is ...... In case the benefits are not very good......"
"Chairman, you also know that the Spring Festival schedule is all signed by a contract, and if we modify it, we need to pay liquidated damages."
