Chapter 633: Turnaround
The global release plan is different from the overseas release, as the name suggests, the global release is a global release, and most countries can see it. And what about overseas releases? It's just going to be released in some areas.
And the biggest difference is the mode of operation, there are very few channels for Chinese films to be released overseas. In addition to company recommendation, the main way is to be favored by overseas entertainment companies and directly contact the company for invitation.
The model of directly buying out the movie or choosing to divide it, the other company operates, and there is basically no place where Huaguo Entertainment Company can intervene. How much box office can be obtained in the overseas market, and how to promote it, they can only see and cannot put forward their own suggestions.
This is the cooperation model between domestic films and overseas markets, and the global release plan is different, he takes the initiative to seek cooperation, take the initiative to contact overseas film markets, and promote the development of his own films.
To put it simply, the biggest difference between a global release and an overseas release is that the global release plan is mainly based on studios, and if it is purchased by overseas markets, if it is released in overseas markets, it is mainly based on the other party. Different priorities naturally lead to more different rights.
Hearing Zhang Hao's statement, Chen Lifeng knew that the other party couldn't just want a release channel, and his plan should be a global simultaneous release.
"Team Leader Zhang, if we just want to release it in overseas markets, there should be no problem for us to contact a few companies directly. With the box office data of the big movie "Fairy Fury", it is not difficult to get a good contract. If you want to promote the global release plan, it may be a bit difficult! After thinking for a moment, Chen Lifeng said slowly.
It's not just difficult. It's simply not possible. When has Chinese cinema ever been released worldwide? Not to mention a film from a small studio. Even if it is a national teacher. Xu Laowei, none of them have reached this level, and it is simply impossible to release it globally.
Of course, there have been exceptions. For example, if the film is handed over to an overseas company for operation before it is released, or if it is sold out in the overseas market, it is really possible to obtain a global release after negotiation between the two parties.
It's just that. Movies are their children for filmmakers, and before they reach adulthood, who knows what kind of future their children have, whether they are brilliant or ordinary.
For overseas companies, they don't watch the future of movies, they only watch movies, and even if the quality of the movies is good, they can't come up with too much money to buy them. For overseas film companies, buying foreign films is simply gambling, and even they don't know if they can recover their costs.
Since I don't know if I can make money. You need to be prepared to lose money, and if you lose money, you can lose a little less. With a similar heart. The price of the purchase will not be too high.
The price is not high, and the film company is unwilling. You paid a lot of money and spent a long time to make a movie, and you gave it the price of cabbage, and they definitely didn't want to sell it. As a result, the global release plan can only be put on hold.
It was impossible in the early stage, let alone now, the movie "Fairy Fury" has shown its potential in China, and it is a well-deserved super masterpiece. It is precisely in this way that overseas companies will be more cautious when they want to cooperate.
Culture is divided, and a work that is popular in China does not mean that it can be welcomed abroad. It's normal that every country has its own culture, and those cultures have left a mark on them, and it is difficult for them to accept another civilization.
Not to mention Huaguo, even if it is the hegemonic country of Mi Guo, his culture is not disdained by many countries. Although the civilization of the United States is indeed so simple that people are speechless, with his military strength, he cannot make everyone surrender, let alone the Chinese culture.
Chinese culture is different, and many points are not clear to people in other countries. The same content is a classic in the eyes of Chinese people, but it may be dross in the eyes of people in other countries. This cultural difference is the most difficult thing to decide in overseas markets.
The classics in China are not necessarily the classics of other countries. It is very likely that you will spend a lot of money to buy it back, but you will not achieve the expected benefits.
As for buying out for very little? This is simply impossible, without considering other factors, just looking at the box office of the big movie "Fairy Fury" can be seen that it can break through the box office of 2.6 billion in seven days, that is, it has exceeded the box office of 400 million US dollars in seven days, which is a great achievement even in the United States.
With such a high box office, some people want to buy the share of the overseas market with three melons and two dates, and it is estimated that no one is happy. If you are a little excited, you may just kick the other party out.
It's like after "Titanic" has been released, when the global market continues to gain momentum, a guy suddenly ran over and said: "Cameron, I know you spent a lot of money on the production of "Titanic", now you don't have to worry, I am ready to help you, just give me the overseas sales rights of "Titanic"!" ”
You see what happens to that person after saying that. There is no need for Cameron to make a move, and a group of investors will immediately rush out around him and beat him out directly.
'You're sick in the brain, everyone knows that movies are going to make money, and now you have a yarn to jump out of! ’
Now this is the situation of the big movie "Fairy Fury", with a box office of 2.6 billion, Zhang Hao and they have great confidence. The movie shows enough potential, and at this time it depends on the decision of the investor.
However, it is not enough to just wait for investors. Investors are sometimes decisive and sometimes conservative. They are not willing to make a move easily, and at this time, someone needs to pull the strings in the middle and recommend the "Fairy Fury" movie.
Talk about cooperation, talk about cooperation, cooperation is always talked about. If you want to sit in the office and wait for the contract to come to you, that is the office in the system, and it is impossible for a private company to appear.
However, Wang Ning's studio lacks the most important relationship network in the middle, and if it wants to extend to the next step, there is a fault line directly. And the global release plan of the "Fairy Fury" movie, this level of planning cannot be decided by the two of them alone.
"If you want to promote the globalization of the "Fairy Fury" movie, in addition to having the corresponding connections, the authority of the two of us is still a little insufficient, and you must have the instructions of the boss!"
The company is not the two of them, and they do not have full decision-making.
Now that he has a plan, how could Zhang Hao not greet Wang Ning, he has already made all the preparations.
"Don't worry about this, Team Leader Chen, I have passed on the plan to the boss, and he approved my plan. Not only is it completely delegated to us, but it is very likely that he will personally contact overseas distributors! Zhang Hao said confidently. (To be continued.) )
