666 Year-end Summary below
"But there's one thing that I really mind, and that's Nicholas? The "Stick Man" starring Cage. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Liu Anran continued.
"It's a great film, not a commercial blockbuster, but it's a film with substance. But there are too few screens arranged for us by the theater chain, which can be said to be pitiful. ”
Seeing that Edward was about to speak, Liu Anran waved his hand, "I know that this has something to do with his "Wind Whisperer", which failed at the box office, making the theater lose confidence in him and feel that he is box office poison." ”
"But I think it's important to remind them that it was MGM in the past, and MGM belongs to us now. The films we produce will naturally be responsible for ourselves. Even if some films are for a sense of existence, our well-crafted films must ensure enough screens. ”
"Especially Cage, let's make several appointments with him. I don't care how many films he takes over from other companies, but as long as it is our company's film, whether it is in publicity or the number of screens, we must guarantee it. ”
"It's not just for Cage, it's for ourselves. The reputation of "Stick Man" is so good, but it is given to such a pitiful screen, what about our "Lord of War" in the future? Will it continue to have such a low-cost and low-screen ratio? ”
"We just want to send a signal to the outside world that even if it is a box office poison, it will become a good medicine in our hands. This is our ability, the ability to turn decay into magic. ”
In order to match his tone, Liu Anran also waved his arm vigorously.
It's not good to tease Edward, the reason why Liu Anran is so "dancing" seems to be really angry.
"Don't laugh, I know that some media outlets have given him the title of 'box office poison'. But we know for ourselves what Cage's acting skills are, and whether they are as evaluated by the outside media. Liu Anran waved his hand and continued.
"That's true, in fact, this is also a problem that these theaters are used to thinking about now." Edward nodded.
"At least a big-budget commercial film, even if the box office is poor, it can have a certain appeal with Cage's fame. So for commercial films, they are very enthusiastic. Even if the box office of the film does not satisfy the producers, they can still have a certain margin. ”
"But small-budget literary films are different from feature films, the audience of such films will be relatively narrow, and the theater chain will not have much confidence. And even if we try our best to fight for it, it will be nothing more than about 10 million more box office, and on the contrary, it will make the relationship between us and the theater chain very bad. ”
"In any case, watching such a film, the audience is rarely interested in eating popcorn, and these snacks are a more important source of income for the theater."
"If you want me to say, in fact, the number of films released by our company is still too small. Although the quality of our company's films is very high, it is a little worse than the number of other companies. George picked up the conversation.
"Anyway, Cage will have a "National Treasure" next year, which is an adventure commercial film, as long as we make it carefully, the box office will not be a problem. When "Lord of War" was released in 2005, I don't think there would be such an encounter as "Stick Man". ”
"Haha, it seems that you all know it, so the task of saving Cage's box office poison is left to you. Let's continue to talk about the song and dance film just now. Liu Anran said with a smile.
In fact, movies with this theme are meant to provide a way for those children to take the right path. Anyway, we can make some money along with it, so I am also confident in the "Hot Shot" that we will release at the end of January next year. ”
"This is the benefit of low-budget movies, anyway, as long as the cost is recovered, the rest will be earned. It's good to enrich our company's film library, and there are not many people who think that our acquisition of MGM is actually similar to the rest of the companies, and it is also for their film library. ”
"Not because of you? So much news. Nowadays, many journalists have made it a habit to make a beautiful article if they have nothing to report, just guess your intentions. Edward said angrily.
Liu Anran shook his head helplessly, although now Qiao? Decatur has disappeared, but some up-and-comers have emerged. I really don't know if these people are full and have nothing to do, and if they don't report serious news, they just stare at themselves.
"It's a fool to have a library there and not make money. Besides, it's not that our company hasn't done nothing, so many copyrights have been bought one after another, and it's all real money, if it weren't for making a better movie, who would spend this money. ”
"It's okay, don't worry about them, you can manage the company well. Leave the battle with them to me, my broadsword is a little hungry. ”
Regarding Liu Anran's indifference, the three chose to ignore it. If you talk to him, he may not be able to get the topic to you.
Liu Anran looked at the lady and beckoned to the three of them, the three of them nodded understandingly, and followed him into the cigar room.
"Let's talk while we smoke." After one person divided one, Liu Anran continued, "Actually, I don't worry much about our company's film industry, because we are making movies with our hearts, and you are here, I am very relieved." The only thing I have to worry about now is the development and exploration of the rest of the entertainment industry. ”
"There is no problem with TV series and variety shows for the time being, we are just starting out on the record company's side, although the road is not so easy, we can still persevere. How is the project of the website proposed by Liu Yi last time? ”
"It's an interesting project, and I'm going to focus on it this year, and I've already recruited a group of technicians to develop it." Edward nodded.
"That's good, we usually have to pay attention to our company's creative mailbox, maybe when a good idea will pop up, we can invest appropriately." Liu Anran said with a smile.
"What we do is pan-entertainment, we can't stick to a certain kind or a certain field, we can all try the industry that can bring joy to everyone. When we have more industries involved in the future, and then organically combine them, the influence we can have at that time will be very terrifying. ”
