The film market in Treasure Island has its special rules.
According to official statistics, the box office of Baodao is only about 300 million Chinese coins a year.
Of course, the 'official' of Baodao has always been unreliable, and the mainland's statistics are sometimes deliberately falsified, while the official of Baodao is a matter of ability, and it is impossible to make clear statistics.
According to the relatively authoritative statistics of the people, the box office of Baodao in a year will definitely be more than 300 million, at least not lower than that of the Philippines, or even far exceeded. You must know that the Philippines has a population of 100 million, and there are only more than 20 million on the treasure island, which shows that the development of the latter's film industry is much healthier and more mature than the former.
The problem is that the tastes of audiences on both sides of the strait are not the same, and there are very few works that can cause huge repercussions on both sides of the strait. Either Taiwan's phenomenal films have sunk into the sea in the mainland, or the mainland box office masterpiece has suffered Waterloo in Taiwan, and there is a huge gap between the box office of the same work across the strait.
For example, "Haijiao No. 7", which is known as the rise of Taiwanese films, hit a super box office of 130 million Chinese coins in the domestic market, beating many Hollywood blockbusters, but the box office in the mainland is only 30 million, which is not as good as some domestic small films, and there is no repercussions at all.
On the other hand, movies with high box office in the mainland are often even more miserable when they arrive on the treasure island, and the large-scale productions with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars are not spared.
Jiang Wen's Let the Bullets Fly, with a box office of nearly 700 million Huaxia coins in the mainland, was released on Baodao, with a total box office of 200,000 Huaxia coins;
Thai embarrassment, which broke the Chinese box office record, had a box office of nearly 1.3 billion Huaxia coins in the mainland, and was released on Baodao, earning only a pitiful 20,000 Huaxia coins in the first week.
Not only are mainland films dismal in Taiwan, but Hong Kong films are also the same. The 'single men and women' who won the championship at the box office in Hong Kong and mainland China were only 120,000 yuan when they arrived on the treasure island.
There is not a single mainland film in the top 20 highest-grossing films in the Treasure Island Film Market, and Hong Kong films only have Stephen Chow's 'kung fu', and there are only a few Taiwanese films left, and the rest are divided by Hollywood foreign films.
"So, it's very risky for Treasure Island to buy your distribution rights." Long Wu shrugged: "Being able to give a price of 750,000 is already full of sincerity." ”
"So, I don't want to count on these two places." Su Ming frowned a little depressed, "That's not right." ”
"What's wrong?" Long Wu asked.
"According to what you said, although Baodao's policy of introducing mainland films is somewhat open, in general, there are still restrictions on the quantity, right?"
Ryugo nodded, "There won't be more than 20." ”
"Then there is no need for the other party to take the risk of introducing a small production that is not optimistic about Zuò to occupy a precious place, since they came to negotiate, they should feel that Animal City is in line with the treasure island market and has prospects, right?" Su Ming said uncertainly.
Hearing Su Ming say this, Long Wu thought about it.
"There's a good chance you're analyzing." He nodded sternly: "I remember, there are some films that have performed quite well on both sides of the strait, such as the two movies '33 Days of Broken Love' and 'The Five Years That Were Stolen' both performed well and ranked among the top ten of the annual box office of Treasure Island." Wait a minute......"
He said as he worked on the computer.
From Su Ming's side, the animal that Long Wu operated the mouse was very stiff, pressing the mouse tightly, and the green tendons on the back of his hand jumped out.
"Brother Ten, do you want to work so hard, it's not a ...... to operate a computer," Su Ming smiled speechlessly.
"I don't understand high-tech, my wife operates it on weekdays, she goes shopping, and I am very nervous about operating it myself." Long Wu stared at the computer screen tightly, holding the mouse to perform blunt operations, and said without raising his head.
Su Ming: "......"
Long Wu tinkered with the opposite side for a long time, and finally found an eel Wen Jiàn from the Wen Jiàn folder and opened it, took out a pair of reading glasses, and stared at the screen for a long time.
"Hey, don't sleep......" Su Ming was about to fall asleep, and Long Wu's voice sounded from the speaker.
"Oh, oh, Brother Ten, what did you find?" Su Ming is a spirit.
"I took a look, in the past five years, mainland movies that have grossed more than 10 million in Baodao have several common characteristics, small production zuò, no political zhì...... One more point. ”
Long Wu raised his head and said seriously: "Don't talk about life and ideals. ”
Every time he saw Long Wu's serious expression, Su Ming wanted to laugh.
"Huh? Without life and ideals, what is the difference between it and salted fish? ”
I was stunned for a moment, and then I understood.
It's not that I don't talk about it, but the life and ideals that mainland movies talk about are generally a bit out of touch with reality, which makes people scratch their heads. For example, the Taoist priest went down the mountain.
Otherwise, it will be too heavy, such as the 'favorite' directed by Gu Changwei and starring Zhang Ziyi and Aaron Kwok. The audience of Treasure Island likes to watch the kind of films that are close to life that don't talk about big truths, but only talk about small lives.
"In this way, Animal City is likely to have a market on Treasure Island, so the other party will come to negotiate." Su Ming said.
"It should be, but even then, the price can't be too high."
Long Wu nodded: "I build yì your vision can be broader, Asia is far more than these two regions, Japan, India, Singapore, Malaysia, oh, and Xiangjiang, can all contribute to the box office, especially Japan, the total market is very large." In the past, our company's films were exported to Japan, and the local box office was basically at a 1:1 price, and the other party still had to make money. ”
Hearing the words 'my company', Su Ming glanced at Long Wu, who was still expressionless, not knowing what he was thinking.
Su Ming pondered for a moment, maybe he over-interpreted the meaning of Long Wu, maybe not.
But in any case, I can't talk about it now, so I said: "I probably understand, Brother Ten, wait until Animal City is released and the total box office of the movie comes out, and then we will talk?" ”
“ok。” Long Wu nodded.
"Oh, I almost forgot, Guo Zijian and they have already gone back, Brother Ten, you can help me tell me, when the box office comes out, I will send them a big red envelope."
"Tell him yourself." Ryugo said with a shrug.
"Brother Ten, they are your people, how can I say it directly." Su Ming smiled.
"Young people are too careful, be careful of growing gray hair at a young age. But it's okay, so as not to embarrass Guo Zijian. Long Wu also laughed.
The next day, I learned from various channels that this week's film schedule has finally been decided.
I'm a passerby, the advantages and disadvantages of this kind of word-of-mouth movie are as obvious, the box office will not skyrocket, nor will it plummet, on the contrary, it may increase steadily, after the fight with Animal City fell behind, the film schedule actually increased by one percentage point, close to 9%;
In the fourth year of the small era, the first week of the outbreak was completed, and the second week began to weaken, and the film schedule dropped to 25%; But it's still a terrifying number;
The Taoist priest went down the mountain, the more he scolded, the happier he became, and the film arrangement remained stable;
The other Zhang Zhen told a few ghost stories, which are no longer insignificant.
Zootopia, the national average film schedule, reached 18%.
In addition, after this week, a series of summer blockbusters that have been promoted for a long time will be released one after another, Gardenia Blossom, Monster Hunt, Shaun the Sheep, Pancake Man, and a domestic animation with an excellent reputation The Return of the Great Sage.
