Chapter 240: Xiaoming joins

readx;

On January 26, 2002, "Youth Musical" was released for more than 20 days, and the cumulative box office has exceeded 70 million yuan. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info has been pressing the opponent of "Youth Musical" - "The Next King" relies on Jay Chou's fan effect, with a cumulative box office of 87 million yuan.

Facts have proved that Wang Qinian is nothing more than that, because in the past, domestic directors did not know much about commercial films, and he was one of the few directors who specialized in commercial films, so with his unpopular level, he actually succeeded. "The Next King" was released at the same time with the same theme, but the box office far exceeded that of Wang Qinian, an 'old' director who has made four films, proving that Wang Qinian's box office myth is vulnerable! The pen hired by Sony Entertainment began to sharp-tongued sarcasm.

Of course, Wang Qinian also has a lot of supporters, and he also said with gunpowder: "Can a film prove its success?" The little partner company and Director Wang, all the movies invested and filmed, are among the top ten at the annual box office. Just like the Olympics, what are two medals in one? It's the total number of gold medals! ā€

At this time, more audiences and industry insiders can feel the power of the partner company - it seems that this is really the case, the output of the partner company is not much, at most three or four films a year, and one or two a year when it is few. But every film ranks in the top ten at the domestic box office!

According to the statistics of the top ten movies on the box office list, the partner company is now the boss of the domestic film box office market!

After the industry fully realized the strength of the small partner company, there were more voices waving the flag to the small partner company. After all. Domestic filmmakers mainly hope to become popular in China. It can't be done at home, and it is even more unreliable to expect it to be able to do it overseas.

And if you want to gain a foothold in the domestic film market, it is natural to hug your thighs and choose a company that is the most powerful in the domestic film market. The state-owned film company is now transforming into a film and television base, cinema distribution, post-production and other services. The output of state-owned studios is not high every year, and the remuneration is basically a friendly price.

So. Partner, company. Overnight, it has become a shortcut to success in the minds of domestic film professionals!

It can be said that in this confrontation, both films are beneficiaries. More than twenty days after its release. Both films are getting weaker at the box office. "Youth Musical" adds a new box office every day. Just over 1 million. And the daily new box office of "The Next Heavenly King" is only about 780,000 yuan.

Although the box office data of the two films has declined. But it still dominates the domestic film box office market, because many other movies. What's more, the box office with a daily increase of more than 100,000 is considered a good achievement.

The vast majority of movies were removed from the big screen in advance because the box office was so bad that it was removed from the big screen in less than ten days after it was released.

However, on January 26, the third Hollywood blockbuster introduced this year was released.

Unlike "Jurassic Park 3" because the film has lost its freshness, DreamWorks' masterpiece "Shrek" is an animated movie. The third newly released Hollywood blockbuster is a magical movie that caters to the tastes of today's young people - "Harry Potter"!

The first two Hollywood movies released this year were average at the box office, "Jurassic Park 3" and "Shrek" did not have the ability to attract money from Hollywood blockbusters in the past few years.

Because, if it is not produced by Hollywood, the audience must buy it!

"Jurassic Park 3" is the first part, and it can be an unprecedented success. But it is already the third part, and the audience has no freshness, so it naturally loses its original box office appeal.

As for "Shrek", which is an animated film, it has earned $260 million at the box office in overseas markets. Because, the consumption of cartoons in overseas markets is relatively mature. In some developed areas, parents can take their children to the cinema to watch animated movies together on weekends. This has resulted in animated blockbusters, which have a good market in places like North America, but in many economically less developed regions, the box office is mediocre.

Animated films in the Chinese market will have to wait more than ten years for them to make a profit.

More than ten years later, the theatrical versions of some children's animations such as Pleasant Goat and Bear Infested have exceeded 100 million at the box office. This is because, more than a decade later, per capita GDP has increased, parents' incomes are much higher than they are now, and more parents are willing to take their children to the cinema to watch children's cartoons together. As a result, this kind of animated theatrical version has begun to become a new profit growth point in the box office market.

The third Hollywood movie released on January 26, 2002 is different from the previous two street fighting genres - "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"!

Since the 90s, the "Harry Potter" series of books has become popular all over the world. Chinese readers are no exception, and there are also a large number of "Harry Potter" fans in China, and everyone is talking about this novel to others, so that readers who have not read this book have at least heard "Harry Potter" in their ears.

Therefore, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" was released, and the box office data on the first day was as high as 5 million yuan!

At the moment when the two youth song and dance films are weak, after "Harry Potter" hit, it stole the limelight of the two films at once!

Although, the "Harry Potter" series is not as sensational as "True Lies" and "Titanic" in the early years. But at least it's not inferior to "Comet Hitting the Ball" and "Saving Private Ryan"!

But people compared the box office of "Youth Musical" and "The Next Superstar" when they were released, and found that the box office appeal of "Harry Potter" was not as good as these two domestic films.

Therefore, the release of "Harry Potter" has increased the influence of two domestic film companies!

For several years in a row, the company has launched a series of high-grossing blockbusters, and has gradually been regarded as the strongest private film producer in the industry. As for Shanshan Entertainment Company, because of its fame, it challenges small partner companies and does not fall behind, and is considered to be its influence, at least ranking among the top ten in the industry.

It is worth mentioning that Huang Xiaoming began to officially join the small partner company after fully understanding the strength and heritage of the partner company.

You must know that in history, Huang Xiaoming joined Huayi Brothers. But the current influence of Huayi is not as good as that of a small partner company.

And Huang Xiaoming cooperates more with partner companies!

Therefore, it is inevitable that Huang Xiaoming chooses to join a partner company.

"Brother Xiao Ming, welcome to join!" Wang Qinian patted him on the shoulder happily.

"Hehe, after joining the company, I don't even know what to call you, is it the boss, or ......" Huang Xiaoming was a little restrained.

"Call it whatever you want, Wang Qinian, Director Wang, Xiao Nianzi, it's all right!" Wang Qinian said with a smile.

"I still call you the boss in the company, and call you the director in the crew!" Huang Xiaoming said.

"Okay!" Wang Qinian doesn't care about the title.

Due to the current downturn in the film and television industry, a star like Huang Xiaoming, who has just become popular, is not too valuable. And Huang Xiaoming joined the company and became a brother!

The treatment given to Huang Xiaoming by the partner company was only a signing fee of 3 million yuan, and Huang Xiaoming's brokerage contract for the next ten years was signed. In addition, one movie or TV series is guaranteed per year, and it must be a big production. In addition, in terms of advertising endorsements, Huang Xiaoming's annual guaranteed income is not less than 1 million yuan.

Although this series of guarantee contracts ensures that Huang Xiaoming, a small partner company, can get at least more than 10 million yuan in income in the future, even if he is miserable. This income makes him not have to worry about the rest of his life even if he does not get further development in the past ten years.

What's more, a star like Huang Xiaoming can get 5/10,000 of the equity incentive every year during the contract period if he stays in the partner company.

After the expiration of the contract, Huang Xiaoming holds at least 5/1000 of the equity of the partner company. At that time, if the development of the partner company is very good, it is also a very good choice to be a shareholder. If you are not optimistic, after leaving the company, the small partner company can redeem the equity of the employee, and you can also cash out smoothly.

Of course, the system of the small partner company is a bit like Huawei, and the parent company has no plan to go public. Only employees are allowed to hold shares. The redemption of shares by the departing employee is not based on a premium, but on the basis of the company's net assets at that time. And a thriving company is actually too cheap to redeem equity at the price of net assets.

It can be said that people who are optimistic about the prospects of small partner companies are not likely to leave because of the constraints of equity. (To be continued.) )
