Chapter 435 - Bitter Special Effects Blockbuster (4) Ask for Subscription!!

"Avatar" has been screened in the European Union, Southeast Asia and other regions during the Spring Festival, and the box office is also quite gratifying.

And movies such as "Men in Black" and "Total Memory" have also landed on the global screen one after another, but at this time, the film market seems to be squeezed dry by "Avatar", and the box office of these special effects blockbusters is extremely poor, so bad that the producers of these movies have a black face all day long, as if they have been slapped in the face.

As for the reason, just look at the comments on the network.

"This movie, this special effects are too bad! It's not pretty! But the plot is okay. ”

"Compared with "Avatar", it tastes like chewing wax, and it is better to watch comedy movies."

""The Hangover 3" is good, although it is not as good as the first part, but it is much better than "Men in Black" or something."

The box office of films such as "Madagascar", "Despicable Me", "Monsters University", and "The Hangover 3", which are very different from special effects blockbusters, is quite gratifying, which is uncharacteristically higher than the two movies "Men in Black" and "Total Recall".

And "Batman: The Rise of the Dark Knight", which was about to be released, saw this situation, and suddenly didn't dare to release it, and it was delayed to March again, which made many fans scold.

"Avatar" is still harmful.

And at this time, the DVD Collector's Edition of Avatar finally began to be officially released worldwide.

It not only contains a 170-minute feature film of "Avatar", but also contains a 240-minute clip of the first version, and also gives away 30 minutes of "Avatar" shooting tidbits, out of print~~ The price is only 120 yuan!! Only 120 RMB!! Jump off the clearance price~~~ Don't miss it when you pass by~~ There is no such shop in this village~~~~"

(So expensive!!) Do you think I'm going to sell?!! Hum!! …… Well, you win~~~)

A 170-minute DVD may not be very noticeable, after all, computers are popular, the speed of network fiber is comparable to that of airplanes, and TVs with network cable/USB sockets are also popular, so DVDs are only collectible. But the first version of the 240-minute clip made countless fans go crazy. After watching "Avatar", I always feel a little unsatisfied. And there are some plots that are not explained clearly, such as how the protagonist lost his legs and how his brother died...... Lots and lots of stories they want to know, and they want to see more about Pandora. And the first version, which is 70 minutes longer than the release version, definitely has what they want in it.

In addition to those fans of "Avatar", filmmakers are also very interested in this DVD, and if you carefully analyze the 30-minute shooting footage, you may learn a lot of shooting techniques from it, which is undoubtedly very attractive for filmmakers.

As a result, the DVD of "Avatar" became popular, just as popular as when it was released in the cinema!!

On the day of the release, the major sales outlets around the world ushered in a large wave of Avatar fans, many of whom came from thousands of miles away. As soon as the store opened, fans rushed in and said to the boss, "I want it!" I'm going to!!! ”

The simple words, the expression of dissatisfaction, almost scared the boss.

This grand occasion of the sale made many foreign media report sourly: "This time, the Chinese profiteer doesn't know how many dollars he can make." ”

――――――――――――――

Time flies. Soon the Spring Festival holiday passed.

On this day, as soon as Wang Shang appeared in the Tianwang Building, the security guards and front desk attendants surrounded him, cordially congratulating Wang Shang on becoming a father, how could Wang Shang resist this kind of offensive? So Wang Shang got carried away with a smile, so he directly took out the prepared red envelope and sent it, and then the employees who heard the news gathered more and more......

Wang Shang fled in embarrassment on the elevator, but he was very happy in his heart. At this time, the unborn son or daughter had filled his entire heart, and every time he heard a word of congratulations, the happiness in his heart rippled once.

The next day, Wang Shang listened to the work report of the company's senior management and the general manager of a branch, and then discussed for two days, and finally made the company's new structure.

In addition to the headquarters of Tianwang Film and Television Group, which is mainly engaged in film and TV drama business. There are five branches below, namely: broker company, Oriental TV station, cinema company, special effects company, and technology company.

The network and physical media are all under the management of radio and television companies; The technology company manages the patent technology reserves, as well as technology research and development, and 3D, IMAX, and other special effects technologies are all under the management of the technology company.

As for the comic company, in the end, after consideration, it became a large department of Tianwang Film and Television.

And the equity incentive promised by Wang Shang has finally been realized. Basically, every senior management and branch general manager will get 0.5%-2% equity incentives, and Bi Han, as the company's veteran and president, gets 4% of the shares, but these shares cannot be bought and sold, only dividends, and will be recovered when he leaves.

Although the equity is not much, it is also worth hundreds of millions, and tens of millions of dividends can be obtained every year, which is enough to make these leaders laugh off their teeth. With such good company benefits, how can you not work hard? Run the company better??

On February 25, 2013, Tianwang Film and Television officially held a press conference. There was no need to be invited, and more than 200 media reporters came on the day of the meeting, which filled the entire conference hall with a lively and vigorous atmosphere.

Before the reporter asked questions, Wang Shang gave a brief introduction to the company's reorganization, focusing on the affairs of the TV station.

The first reporter who was selected calmly asked Wang Shang: "May I ask Mr. Wang, why did you buy the TV station?" Was it because of the crisis of public opinion the year before that you were prompted to do so? It seems that the TV broadcasting business is not very closely related to the film business. ”

"The reason why it was acquired was not because of the crisis of public opinion the year before last." Wang Shang directly denied this, although this is a fact, "In fact, everyone knows that the film business and the TV broadcasting business actually have something in common, movies can be broadcast on TV stations, and then stars can participate in variety shows in TV stations, and the production team of TV stations can borrow the resources of film companies. ”

If it weren't for the promotion of the TV station, Wang Shang would not have explained so much.

"You said last time you wouldn't be making movies in the near future, so you mean you're going to make a TV series next?"

Wang Shang replied briskly: "I will participate in the editing of the new TV series, and as for the director, I should not consider it for the time being." ”

After answering this question, the staff of the lottery announced: "The next reporter is Mr. Wang, a reporter from East China Finance and Economics." ”

The reporter of "East China Finance" stood up excitedly after hearing this, and asked Wang Shang: "Will the TV station change its name?" Also, every TV station will have a main channel, including variety shows, news, finance, law, movies and TV series, what is the main program of your TV station? ”

Although there are a lot of questions asked, these are all questions that Wang Shang wants to say, so Wang Shang is very cooperative in answering the questions one by one: "The TV station will change its name and will change it to Oriental TV, after all, the name of Ningnan TV has a regional narrowness." As for the main channel, we plan to focus on the variety channel, the movie and TV drama channel and the anime channel, the variety channel is now a satellite channel, and the movie and TV series channel and the anime channel will be upgraded to a satellite channel. ”

The reporter sat down satisfied, and the next reporter who was selected stood up and asked, "Why did you choose variety shows and animation?" Are you confident enough in both? ”

"In terms of variety shows, I have enough confidence that variety shows usually contain many performances, such as music, dance, acrobatics and comedy, which are very relevant to the main business of the film and television group, so it is absolutely no problem, judging from the current situation, China's variety shows are still relatively backward compared to foreign countries. And for the variety channel, I am still quite confident. As for the anime channel, at present, the animation department of Tianwang Film and Television has made three cartoons, and they will meet you at that time, and I am very confident in them. ”

The entire press conference, under the guidance of Wang Shang, led all the questions to the TV station, which played a very good publicity effect on the TV station.

There were also a few reporters who asked some questions about movie theater chains and special effects companies.

Finally, a reporter asked Wang Shang if he wanted to be a father, and when Wang Shang said yes, there was a sound of blessings at the scene.

The congratulations of many reporters made the originally tired Wang Shang energetic again, and his face was full of red light, which was even more awesome than drinking Red Bull.
