Chapter 496: Those Things in the Theater

After the Spring Festival, everyone got busy, Han Yi has been tinkering with "Hero", and came out to go to the United States in person to talk about the theaters that will be released, and this is the bargaining with domestic theaters.

Then he walked around with a group of leading actors, mainly to do international publicity, because the theater chain in the United States has already been negotiated, and the domestic has not yet been negotiated.

"Haven't the domestic cinema chains been talked about yet?"

"No~!" Han Yi shook his head helplessly.

Abroad, Han Yi doesn't have much to do, after all, this is indeed a purebred domestic movie, and the proportion of the share is not high, which is also expected.

Fortunately, Lionsgate still remembers the previous friendship, and with the help of Lionsgate, Han Yi got a final box office share of 15%, which is not low in this foreign movie.

But what has always made Han Yi unhappy is the domestic one, and the domestic country has been biting the 29% share, but it will not give in.

Now the cinema chain has formed a 35 cinema alliance to advance and retreat together, and these 35 have basically completely covered most of the domestic cinema chains.

They just won't give in, and Han Yi has no way to do it.

"There's no way around this, I can only boil it slowly, and that's how my movies were before! Actually, you're pretty good, I remember that my first movie was only 20 percent of the cut! ”

Saying that, Li Xiaolong smiled bitterly, Li Xiaolong's so-called first movie is not at the same level as Han Yi's current movie.

You must know that Li Xiaolong started as an actor, and by the time he made his own movies, he was already world-famous, and he could only get 20% of the share at that time.

Of course, it is not that Han Yi is more famous than Li Xiaolong at that time, but because of the changes of the times.

However, although it is progress, the theater chain is still the boss, especially now that they have formed a so-called alliance, they can't increase the score at all.

It's kind of a pathology, but there's no way, behind these is a group of people with a backstage, they have a monopoly like this, what can you do? Now Han Yi is facing such a first problem.

"Is there no other way?" Han Yi asked unwillingly.

"Yes, if your movie can be sold abroad, although the theater chain holds the lifeblood of the movie, the lifeblood of the theater chain is in the hands of the masses." Li Xiaolong said with a wry smile.

He had this idea for a long time, but it never worked, although he tried it, but it didn't work.

He didn't make the kind of movie that really got the attention of the whole country.

"That's it!" Han Yi frowned and said, he naturally understood what Li Xiaolong meant.

If a movie can be sold abroad, and the popularity is stirred up before, so that domestic audiences will naturally be unhappy if they can't see the movie, and finally throw public opinion to crush these theaters and make them make concessions.

However, this method sounds simple, but to do it, it can only be "hehe", how can it be so easy!

At least Han Yi doesn't think that his movie can work, this has to use a movie against an industry, think about what this movie wants to become!

Although the hero is good, it is not to this extent.

"Hey, is this just the way to compromise? Unwilling! Han Yi said resentfully, when there is a first time in this world, there will be a second time, and then there will be a third time.

Of course, Han Yi has already had two movies released before, but the problem is that both movies were handed over by Han Yi to other groups for agency.

Being buried alive is a school, and immortality is Lionsgate, so how to talk about this has little to do with Han Yi.

The school not only represents a kind of public knowledge, but also a vast circle of contacts, especially the best school in the country like Peking University, where the country's bosses are all from the inside, what do you mean by just face? Several of the CEOs of these theaters are from Peking University.

As for Lionsgate, it is an American company, because of the previous opening of the domestic film market, several major entertainment companies in the United States and domestic theater chains have contracts, and this is good to do things according to the contract.

But this time Han Yi talked about it himself, and the problem came.

"Actually, there's another way!"

"Oh, Brother Xiaolong, what's the solution?"

"I forgot about this for a while, this solution will come to the door soon!" Li Xiaolong said with a slight smile.

"Oh, what's the solution?"

"There is still a cinema chain, he is in a dangerous moment, I guess he will find you soon!"

“?” Han Yi, who had not paid attention to it before, said that he really didn't know: "Brother Xiaolong, don't sell Guanzi, hurry up!" ”

"Do you know that there is a real estate tycoon in China?"

"What does this have to do with theaters?"

"What if this real estate tycoon enters the theater chain?"

"Tawan!" At this time, Han Yi suddenly remembered that Qi Ming seemed to have talked about this matter before, but Han Yi didn't take it to heart.

"That's right, it's Dawan, they have their own theater chain, but now the problem is that this is a rule breaker, and now the thirty-five theater alliances are collectively testing the pressure on entertainment companies, and now Dawan can't get the source of the film at all!"

Film and television companies and cinemas have always been symbiotic and restrictive, cinemas need film sources to make profits, and film and television companies need cinema channels to make profits, and the two are symbiotic.

However, this is theoretical, if it is in the United States, American theaters are restricted by law, and they dare not cross the thunder pool to force film and television companies, and only dare to occasionally play some small tricks to arbitrage profits

But China is not the United States.

In China, the theater chain is the predator who really dares to force the film and television production company, which can be seen from the share, they are the blood suckers of the film and television production company, but the film and television production company does not dare to speak out at all. Whether it is Firefly, Blue Sky or the strongest peak, they dare not confront the theater chain, they just earn a little profit when the theater chain competes for the source of the film.

The cinema chain is the real giant crocodile lurking under the surface of the film and television industry.

At the beginning of the establishment of Dawan, the cinema alliance joined forces to strangle Dawan, so that Dawan had no film to play, and wanted to kick Dawan, a real estate predator, out of the circle of cinemas.

This is fatal for Dawan, not only because of the billions of investment, but also for a more important reason, that is, this failure proves that Dawan's real estate theory does not work, and this is fatal for Dawan.

So they must not allow this failure, now it is just right, Han Yi has resources in his hands, and after thinking about this, Han Yi smiled. (To be continued.) )
