Chapter 702: Raising the Stock Price?
The Legend of the Gods created a new record of bad movies, and the word-of-mouth box office failed miserably, and the special effects that should have been two points were complained about. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In contrast, all kinds of mounts and monsters, which are purely starred by real animals and add special effects in the later stage, have become the only bright spot in the center.
From an objective point of view, it cannot be said that this drama has no highlights, and the investment of hundreds of millions of dollars is only qualified for animals.
If you want to blame, you can only blame the big deviation in the publicity, just as predicted by Taoyuan Film and Television before, the audience feels deceived, fake casts, fake gods, fake acting skills...... Among the many slots that can no longer be fake, the 'authenticity' of animals is highlighted.
Everything is afraid of comparison, and the fake highlights the real preciousness, and Taoyuan Pictures, which assists in providing animal shooting, has become a topic of conversation a little.
Many viewers and film critics have a consensus that this time Huaxia Star really dragged down Taoyuan Film and Television, and Taoyuan Film and Television got on the thief ship.
However, Su Ming doesn't see it that way, the legend of the gods is planted, and it doesn't affect Taoyuan Film and Television, it's just that there is no expected 'dividend', anyway, Su Ming doesn't care about that little festive money now.
On the contrary, through this comparison of truth and falsehood, coupled with the last small production of Zootopia, Taoyuan Film and Television's reputation in China has risen again, as if it is a representative of conscience movies......
What is a good reputation? A good reputation is trust, and it is the box office guarantee of the next play!
It's the money of the future.
Of course, Su Ming didn't expect this in advance, and he was also speechless, so naturally he wouldn't talk to Long Wu about these things in person.
The head of Long Wu is going to be big, with a total box office of more than 300 million, which makes Huaxia Star vomit blood.
In the final analysis, this movie is to support the left, Long Wu, who is a father, is now sitting in the position of chairman of Huaxia Star, and there is a lot of pressure at this time.
"Losing a lot of money?" Su Ming was stunned: "No, Brother Ten, invest a little bit of hundreds of millions, and the box office is more than 300 million, even if you can't make back the cost, you won't lose too much, right?" ”
According to the normal account-sharing model, with a box office of more than 300 million, Huaxia Star definitely has more than 100 million after tax, and after calculation, the loss is only 20 or 30 million, this amount of money should not make Long Wu too painful, and he made a special phone call, is it just to complain?
No, a person like Long Wu has been beaten by the wind and rain in the rivers and lakes, and his teeth are knocked out and swallowed in his stomach, and he will not regret it afterwards if he is killed, crying and crying like a resentful woman.
"Part of the box office is fake...... Long Wu smiled, without elaborating, and stopped at the point.
Su Ming understood.
Huaxia Star bought the box office!
He couldn't quite understand why the distributor would do such a 'stupid thing' as spending money to buy the box office, which was completely more than worth the loss.
Isn't it sick to pay 50 yuan for yourself, buy a ticket, and get 20 yuan when you divide the account?
The box office is beautiful, but the higher the box office, the more you lose?
After entering the industry, he realized the mystery of this, and it is true that he lost money, but if the box office is high, it will cause false prosperity and attract more people to buy tickets with real gold and platinum.
In addition, there are some unwritten bad habits in the industry, and the film industry is no exception.
In these years, everything is linked to performance. The quality of school education depends on the admission rate, test scores, whether government officials have good political performance, and the rate of economic growth......
The most direct digital assessment model, although there is a fair and scientific standard, will also lead to ignoring the incident itself, only focusing on superficial data, and even the phenomenon of data fraud.
The most direct benefit of the high box office of the movie is that the major theater chains will increase the film scheduling rate, and give the company a lot of care for the next movie, and the media will also report it and do 'free' publicity.
On the contrary, if the box office is low, the film scheduling rate will drop immediately, and in the future, when this company produces movies, major theaters will also deal with it carefully.
Of course, theaters are not stupid. Which box office is real and which is fake, the theater chain knows it clearly.
But the theater chain doesn't care whether the audience pays for the ticket, or the production company pays for the ticket, for the theater chain, there is no difference, anyway, the theater chain is the same money, if it is all a ghost field where the production company buys tickets, the theater chain can also save equipment maintenance and wear and tear costs, why not.
After all, Huaxia Star is a company in Xiangjiang, and it is not too 'rampant' in the mainland, and more than 40 million of the more than 300 million box office are fake box office.
Therefore, Huaxia Star's real loss is not only only 20 or 30 million as Su Ming thought before, but also has to add this part of the investment, which exceeds 50 million. Even for Huaxia Star, this is not a small amount of money.
What really gave Long Wu a headache was not the box office account, but the box office downturn, which caused the stock of Huaxia Star to plummet!
Huaxia Star is a listed entertainment company, and Long Wu and his wife are the majority shareholders of the company.
The stock price fluctuations of entertainment companies are closely related to the company's film performance.
When the filming of the magic blockbuster was initially announced, Huaxiaxing's stock price rose for a week, and the rise was even crazier a few days before the release. But on the first day of release, the stock price began to fall, and the later the movie showcased, the faster the stock price fell.
Almost every time the Romance of the Gods stays on the big screen for one more day, the market value of Huaxia Star and the wealth of Long Wu and his wife will shrink a little.
According to the previous plan, the Legend of the Gods can get a four-week release time, which is very terrifying. After seeing this situation, Long Wu decisively released it in theaters across the country, and it was only released for 15 days. Rao is like this, and the stock price has fallen to a point where even he feels that he can't accept it.
Long Wu, the major shareholder, lost money, after all, his family has a big business and a strong family foundation, and the money in the stock is sometimes just a number for him, and it will not really affect his life.
But many of the remaining small shareholders of Huaxia Star have quit, from the group partners who hold tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars to the ordinary shareholders who only have a few hundred shares, and they have pointed the finger at Long Wu.
Everyone is not stupid, and the stock plummeted in a short period of time because of the box office failure of the Legend of the Gods; And the legend of the gods is specially opened by the five couples of the dragon to support their son.
When the stock rose, the shareholders didn't say anything, but now that it has fallen, of course, Long Wu has to come out and carry the black pot.
The boss of the company seems to be beautiful at the same time, but also has to bear a heavy responsibility, which is especially obvious in listed companies, not only the company's employees have to follow the boss to make a living, but also to be responsible for the shareholders who have bought the stock.
In a legal sense, even if you only buy one dollar, you are a shareholder of the company and have the right to make your own claims.
Hearing Long Wu mention the stock, Su Ming was slightly stunned and pondered for a few seconds.
The company's stock suddenly fluctuated sharply, and Long Wu could not escape the blame, which might affect his position as chairman of Huaxiaxing.
Does Long Wu want to help himself, save the market, buy some stocks, and raise the market price?
Thinking of this, Su Ming hesitated slightly. (To be continued.) )
