Such a large number of Chinese fans appeared at the Busan Film Festival, which was rare in previous editions. This phenomenon has also attracted the attention and coverage of the South Korean media.

An interview team from SBS TV reported on the whole scene, and the reporter led by the reporter was a woman with sweet and delicate facial features, big breasts, and long flowing hair.

"Hello everyone in front of the TV, I'm Cha Dahui, and I'm here to report the latest entertainment information for you outside the Jamsil Stadium, the home of the Busan Film Festival. You can see that there are a lot of Chinese fans behind me, do you feel the same as me if you are at a Chinese film festival? I'm also curious, so please follow me to the interview for details. ”

Cha Duohui approached the fan group, and through the lens, many Korean TV viewers saw that Chinese fans were holding movie posters in their hands, and some of the stars in the good news knew each other, some were familiar, and some did not know each other.

Che Duohui saw that the boy was holding a poster of Wang Xu in his hand, of course she knew Wang Xu, because of the opportunity of "Run, Brother", Wang Xu went to SBS TV, and she met the Chinese superstar. However, many Korean viewers don't necessarily know, so she asked, "Are you here to see Dave Wang Xu?" ”。

The boy nodded, "Yes, I love his movies." ”

At this moment, the boy cheered, and Che Duohui looked back to see that it was Wang Xu and his party, who got off a Rolls-Royce and walked on the red carpet.

More than 1,000 Chinese fans at the scene were all excited, and the cheers were deafening.

Cha Duohui is used to such scenes. continued to report: "Ladies and gentlemen, you now see that walking on the red carpet are the five main creators of the film "Romance of the Dragon and Snake". ”

"There are two heroines in the middle, and Angelababy on the left, and many viewers should still be impressed by Angelababy's performance in last year's episode of "Runningman" in the China-South Korea showdown. Angelababy is a famous actor and super model in China.

On the right is Princess Rongrong, Zhao Rongrong, who is the daughter of a rich family. is a well-known film and television star in China. ”

Che Duohui continued to introduce the three male stars, saying: "Wu Jing, a first-line male star in the Chinese film industry, a famous kung fu actor. ”

"Called Beast Yi Xiaoxing, the chief director of China's famous film and television company Golden Hammer Film and Television, the best director of the China Golden Horse Awards, and the director of China's highest box office record, the first part of last year's movie "Journey to the West" won 1.715 billion, about 309.7 billion won. set the highest box office in China, and half a year later, this record was broken by the second part of "Journey to the West" directed by him, with a total box office of 2.468 billion, about 445.3 billion won! ”

Cha Duohui couldn't help but marvel when she read out this data, because in this way, the box office of the first and second parts of Journey to the West combined is equivalent to 90% of the total box office of the Korean film market in 2013.

Many Korean viewers who watched the live broadcast through the Internet still didn't believe it, so they immediately checked it on the Internet, and when it was true after checking, they were impressed by this bald director. In the words of Chinese netizens: It's awesome. And after reading the information just now, I know that the young man next to the bald head is even more awesome, because he is the boss of the bald head.

Sure enough, Che Duohui did not hesitate to praise Wang Xu when introducing him. The king of comedy, China's youngest film and television superstar, and the owner of a film and television company, finally emphasized: "The Romance of the Dragon and Snake is his first attempt to be a director, and this kung fu movie is adapted from an online novel with a total investment of 72.3 billion won. ”

72.3 billion won, about 400 million yuan. It is three times higher than the 20 billion won of "The Battle of Mingliang", which is known as the largest investment in South Korea's history. Of course, there is nothing surprising about this, China is a big country, and the size of China's film market is four or five times that of South Korea, and it is normal for the scale of investment to be large.

"The Romance of the Dragon and Snake has been shortlisted for this year's festival's 'New Wave' award, and more news about it will continue to be reported by our reporters. Please watch with your attention. ”

An hour later, Che Duohui ended the off-site report and walked into the venue to continue tracking the report.

The theme of today's festival is "Window on Asia", and the screening of outstanding films from all over Asia is called a film screening. The audience for the film screening is filmmakers from Asian countries, which means that such a test screening is equivalent to an import and export fair.

Movies are commodities, and customers are distributors.

At last year's Busan Film Festival, overseas rights sales set a record of more than $200 million. When Che Duohui's interview team came to the outside of the "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" viewing hall, the door inside was already closed. At such a viewing party, reporters and fans are not allowed to enter until the end of the film unless they are invited, which is also to prevent the leakage of the film.

Reporters were waiting outside in the lounge area, where there were drinks, desserts and promotional materials for the film.

Che Duohui tasted desserts with Chinese characteristics while flipping through the materials of "Romance of the Dragon and Snake". For practitioners like her, what is revealed from the promotional materials is enough to judge the quality of a movie. Slogans such as "Asia's Strongest Kung Fu Troupe, Create the Strongest Kung Fu Movie" may be considered sensationalist at first glance, but when you look closely at the actors' information, you won't think so.

Samurai General Adviser Chen Long, Wu Jing, and Tony Jia joined, almost half of China's stars, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the strongest kung fu movie in Asia.

Che Duohui is becoming more and more interested in this Chinese film, and if it is released now, she will sell tickets to the cinema to watch it.

I don't know how long it took, but there was a round of applause inside. Che Duohui knew that the film had ended, and from the fact that the applause was so warm and lasted for nearly a minute, it was very well received by the filmmakers. Her guess was right, when she was allowed to go in for an interview, she interviewed several studios at random, including Japanese, Indian, and Korean, all of whom spoke highly of the film.

A senior vice president and deputy vice president of Showbox, a well-known South Korean film and television company that has distributed films such as "Tai Chi Flag Flying," praised "The Romance of the Dragon and Snake" as the most wonderful Chinese film he has seen in the past five or six years.

Che Duohui was very surprised, "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" almost won unanimous praise from the filmmakers present. Cha Duohui and Korean TV viewers witnessed the film sign copyright deals with 14 Asian countries, including South Korea, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, India, Iran, Indonesia, the Philippines, Brunei, Cambodia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar.

The total amount of the agreement is 52 million US dollars, with a total of 320 million yuan and 58.4 billion won. This record is the highest overseas sales of a single Asian film since the Busan Film Festival was held in 1996.

[Knowledge, film overseas copyright sales methods: guarantee, account sharing and buyout. The buyout is very simple, you take the money, then whether the box office and the surrounding area of this movie lose or make money in the future have nothing to do with you, and generally small-budget movies choose to buy out. "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" chooses a guarantee, the party who buys the copyright pays a certain amount of money as a guarantee, and then distributes it in the domestic market, and after the film is released, the distribution income in addition to the guarantee is removed, and then the party who sells the copyright is divided.

The main event of large-scale film festivals such as Beijing and Cannes Film Festival in China is actually this kind of film fair, and the largest is the Cannes Film Festival, with more than 20 film fairs a day. Why do many domestic directors go to the Cannes Film Festival with films that you haven't even heard of, just to sell them at a good price? (To be continued......)
