Chapter 260: Finalizing the Spring Festival (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

——Xie Lu thank you for your strength, some opinions, Baoxing has seen it, will correct it, thank you, I beg for a monthly pass, there will be an update around eleven o'clock-

Although Zhao Ze is not easy to estimate the box office of "You at the Same Table", Zhao Ze is still relatively optimistic about the gradual accumulation of fans, and Zhao Ze's subsequent publicity has not yet been made.

Next, it is necessary to solve the problem of distribution, this movie, although there are some large distribution companies that take a fancy to it, but it is unlikely that they will choose to cooperate with Pinxuan Film and Television, just like "Crazy Stone", even if Pinxuan Film and Television has a successful case, in the hearts of these distribution companies, they still have to choose to buy out.

Zhao Ze does not know the specific cost of the filming of "You at the Same Table", but after the filming of this month and a half, more than 10 million yuan has been invested in Pinxuan Film and Television, and this does not include a series of publicity.

Movies are really known as the most money-burning industry, and Zhao Ze finally understands one thing now, which is, no wonder in the world of Lu in the world, someone once said that in China, movies are the least profitable industry, it seems that many people have a box office of over 100 million and make a lot of money, but some investors, a film investment bankruptcy, also abounds.

"If you want to release it on Valentine's Day, it seems that it is a bit too late at present, but fortunately, the Chinese New Year file is almost in late March, or we will directly choose to release it in mid-March?"

Pinxuan Film and Television, Ning Hao discussed with Zhao Ze.

2014, as if it was a leap September, therefore. Although the New Year has already passed in the solar calendar. It's January 21st. However, the lunar calendar has only been in December, and there is still a month before the New Year, but the time before Valentine's Day can be said to be too short and too short.

"In that case, then, we will not release it on Valentine's Day. The schedule was selected on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve. ”

Zhao Ze was also a little helpless, but suddenly his eyes lit up and he spoke.

"Chinese New Year's Eve? During the Chinese New Year, it can be said that it is often when blockbusters gather, and our films are scheduled to be scheduled, that is, there is a schedule, and at that time, the film will be scheduled. It's going to be a loss, too. ”

Li Chen frowned and said.

"It's okay, I have confidence in "You at the Table". Let's just decide, let's solve the issue of distribution first. ”

Zhao Ze waved his hand slightly and said confidently.

"Now, it is obvious that we have no hope for the first-line distribution company for the time being, but, in my opinion, we will simply continue to find a second-tier distribution company, although the publicity will be weaker, but we can promote it ourselves, it is nothing more than cooperative distribution, as for the choice of this piece, last time, our "Crazy Stone" had a good cooperation with Yuetian Entertainment, and Chen Xiao of Yuetian Entertainment talked about it at the beginning of our filming, if we can, they are still willing to help us publish."

Seeing that Zhao Ze had already decided, Ning Hao didn't say much more, but talked about the issue of distribution.

The final box office of "Crazy Stone" is 180 million, although it did not break 200 million, but the investment of 4 million, the high box office of 180 million, the most final, even if all the operating costs are thrown, the net profit of "Crazy Stone" is more than 100 million, and Yuetian Entertainment is also making a lot of money, it is precisely because of this that Chen Xiao will come to cheer on the occasion of the filming of "You at the Same Table".

And Chen Xiao is not stupid, at the beginning, he was actually not optimistic about this movie, but with the next round of publicity, he faintly looked forward to it, and this movie may also become a dark horse.

Now, some entertainment companies or distribution companies are taking a wait-and-see attitude towards "You at the Same Table", at this time, if Chen Xiao does not take the first step, then, I am afraid, by that time, everything will be too late.

Therefore, Chen Xiao made a decisive move, got in touch with Pinxuan Film and Television, and was ready to talk about the release, and when Zhao Ze heard Ning Hao's words, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, in fact, in Zhao Ze's heart, the first choice was Yuetian Entertainment.

"Okay, then it's decided, in this way, Uncle Ning, our film has been sent for review, and if you run around in this regard, even if it passes the relationship, you must pass the review as soon as possible, as for the distribution, I am ready to release it with Yuetian Entertainment."

Zhao Ze nodded lightly and said.

After all, at the beginning, whether it was Zhao Ze or Pinxuan Film and Television, they were all in a rather embarrassing situation, and there was basically no money left after the investment, but now, not to mention the high profits earned by Pinxuan Film and Television, the last two micro-films have also earned nearly 10 million, and now, it can be said that Pinxuan Film and Television is rich.

"Co-publishing?"

Chen Xiao looked at Zhao Ze and was a little puzzled.

"Yes, I want to release this film with you Yuetian Entertainment, that is to say, there are other aspects of the publicity channels belong to you Yuetian Entertainment, however, the publicity costs are responsible for our Pinxuan Film and Television, but, in this way, it is absolutely impossible to follow the 18% of the last time regarding the distribution commission."

Looking at Chen Xiao, Zhao Ze said with a smile.

"Are you so sure of "You at the Same Table"?"

Chen Xiao looked at the wind in front of him, talking and laughing, and Zhao Ze, who was full of confidence, was also a little puzzled.

"Hehe, I'm quite sure, and I believe that Mr. Chen should have also seen the fan base and influence of "You at the Same Table" today, and you will still earn money on this film."

Zhao Ze smiled lightly, and besides, he still had a back hand and didn't use it.

"Okay, since you are responsible for all the publicity costs, then, the issuance commission, I can reduce it by eight points."

Chen Xiao looked at Zhao Ze and said.

"Mr. Chen, you are a bit of a joke, the publicity cost, I am afraid it will be about 20 million, and the cost of this aspect will be paid by us for all the film and television, but you have to get 10% of the distribution commission, which is a bit unreasonable."

Zhao Ze can't accept such a plan, after all, if the box office is really blowout, then, a point, is a lot of money, and now, Zhao Ze naturally needs to be able to counteroffer, so he has to bargain.

"Well, we're in an old relationship too. I can only make one more point. Nine percent of the issuance commission. This is already my maximum concession, otherwise, no matter how low it is, I will not be able to explain to the board of directors. ”

Chen Xiao shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Deal!"

Zhao Ze said with a smile, and next, the two announced the issue of the schedule, just before they came. Zhao Ze has already gotten the news that the film has been approved, that is to say, as long as there is a schedule in the theater, then it can be released.

Regarding the setting of the file during the Spring Festival, Chen Xiao was also a little surprised, and after the last, he also hoped that Zhao Ze would carefully consider it, and this year's Spring Festival file. It can be said that several American blockbusters with an investment of hundreds of millions, or even hundreds of millions. will be firmly occupied, so, when the time comes, the film scheduling rate of "You at the Same Table" may be pitifully low.

However, Zhao Ze also has his own considerations, sometimes he feels that he has not enough time to make a movie, and making a movie is his own goal, but it has been more than half a year since he came to this world, and the new 2015 is coming, Zhao Ze can't let a movie, like other directors, shoot for more than a year, and then choose the schedule for more than half a year.

Moreover, in this time and space, there is no market for youth-themed movies, so Zhao Ze also has enough confidence, since he can't persuade Zhao Ze anymore, then, after the last, Chen Xiao and Zhao Ze also discussed and directly set the file for the Spring Festival.

Subsequently, Pinxuan Film and Television and Yuetian Entertainment held a press conference again, and made a brief release for the release of "You at the Same Table", at the press conference, Chen Xiao was also full of confidence, but he didn't say it too much, but just said that the box office of "You at the Same Table" will be very impressive.

However, when many reporters heard that Zhao Ze actually set the schedule for the Spring Festival, they were shocked one after another, and some reporters who did good things reported at this time-

"The Spring Festival file has always been the battlefield of many blockbuster wars, and, just yesterday, "1942" director Chen Ruoge just confirmed that their movie will be released in the Spring Festival file, today, "You at the Same Table" held a press conference and announced that it would be released on the same day.

"I really admire the courage of Pinxuan Film and Television, a literary film with an investment of more than 10 million, a film that is in a niche market in the market, but it is necessary to choose to release it during the Spring Festival, this is really the rhythm of hitting the street to the extreme!"

"The investment of "1942" is as high as 150 million, and the strong lineup is probably the highlight of China Entertainment Media, and the main creators, as well as China Entertainment Media and Hot Dog Entertainment, are full of confidence, saying that the box office will be 800 million, if there is no exception, "1942" may dominate the entire Spring Festival file, but "You at the Same Table" chose to be released at this time, I have to say, it was a miscalculation."

After the schedule of "You at the Same Table" was set, almost, the media sang and declined, which is not to say that the media is not optimistic about "You at the Same Table", but because the schedule chosen by "You at the Same Table" made everyone feel surprised and puzzled.

Compared with the slightly mild criticism of the mainstream media, the editor-in-chief of Star Weekly directly published a sharp article -

"The arrogant genius - Zhao Ze

Zhao Ze's talent and talent, needless to say, but is it really good for a freshman who has just become a freshman and a young man who has just turned 18 years old to become famous?

Take a look at Zhao Ze's achievements, 14 years in the music world, he can be regarded as an absolute leader, if it weren't for Zhao Ze being busy making movies and having no time to promote the major music lists, I'm afraid that many of this year's music lists will be included by Zhao Ze, and the sales of the books he wrote are also a record in China, it can be said that Zhao Ze is called a genius, and it is not an exaggeration.

However, maybe geniuses are arrogant, this "You at the Same Table" Originally, I was also quite optimistic about Lu, although it is niche, but it has a fan base, and it is easy to cause nostalgia, but Zhao Ze actually chose the schedule in the Spring Festival file, which is simply dead.

Could it be that you think your movie can be compared to "1942"? Could it be that your movie can be compared to "Star Wars", and it can be compared to "Heroes? Originally, if I could, the box office of the movie might still have one or two million, but now, hehe, ten million may not be available. ”

Facing the voice of decay, facing the words of the editor of the most gossipy weekly magazine, Star Weekly, Zhao Ze did not pay attention to it, or had no time to pay attention to it, because the publicity wave of "You at the Same Table" officially began. (To be continued......)
