Chapter 676: "Summer Lucky Star" dividends

"Summer Lucky Star" sold 50 million Hong Kong dollars, Hong Jinbao couldn't stop smiling, this is his first real independent production, from the preparation of the crew to the post-production of the film, he is calling the shots, if he stayed in Golden Harvest at the beginning...... Hong Jinbao knows very well in his heart that as long as it is a film released by Golden Harvest Cinemas, Zou Wenhuai will have to intervene no matter what.

As Wang Zichuan said, although "Summer Lucky Star" was only released for three weeks, Hong Jinbao was not the slightest dissatisfied, this time the box office in this port is 50 million, and the gas theater chain is divided into half, he and Zeng Zhiwei and Mecca can get 25 million, after deducting the cost of the film 11 million, there is still 14 million left, according to the pre-determined sharing ratio, Hong Jinbao accounts for half, 7 million, Zeng Zhiwei can get 4 million, Mecca is the least, and there are 3 million Hong Kong dollars.

The three of them got the notice of receiving dividends early in the morning, Wang Zichuan successively subdivided Hong Jinbao, Zeng Zhiwei, and Mecca, Zeng Zhiwei was used to it, and immediately joined Hong Jinbao, only Mecca was suspicious, and finally came to the agreed place.

"Is it the wrong notice from the company's finances?" Mecca touched his bald head, not long after he joined Tengfei Entertainment, he has been assisting Chen Baixiang to do some management work, in order to avoid suspicion, he did not pay much attention to finance, according to his experience, after the film is drawn, the producer wants to get money, at least two months to wait, as for why wait, this is also a recognized unspoken rule.

Zeng Zhiwei said with a smile: "Forget to tell you, we == Tengfei Entertainment is more special here, and after the theater chain counts the accounts, we independent producers can share the money." ”

Mecca closed her mouth in surprise: "The finance department doesn't audit? What if we make a mistake, should we get the money back? ”

Zeng Zhiwei said: "You think too much, when the theater counts the box office, the finance department will naturally send someone to calculate, and now it is a computer, no matter how many accounts you have, you can get it done in one day." ”

Looking left and right, Mecca whispered, "I wonder if Ah Chuan will be a ghost?" ”

Hong Jinbao immediately frowned. Displeased: "Something like that, I don't want to hear it a second time!" ”

"Now that everyone has arrived, let's hurry up and ask Ah Chuan to get the money!" Zeng Zhiwei played haha and pulled Mecca to walk behind.

Hong Jinbao walked alone with a straight face, Mecca touched his nose and wondered: "Did I say the wrong thing?" ”

Zeng Zhiwei comforted: "You don't understand the situation, there are no such means as Jiahe Cinema and Golden Princess Cinema here." ”

"You mean Achuan will divide the money according to the numbers on the accounts? This can't be, I've been in the industry for so many years, and I haven't seen such a real person, when Xinyi City was in its heyday. With our relationship with Lei Juekun, the film will be released in the Golden Princess theater, and some of it will be intercepted! Mecca was pleasantly surprised and suspicious, eager to figure out the ins and outs at once.

Hong Jinbao had already entered the elevator, Zeng Zhiwei pulled Mecca to speed up, and said succinctly: "You'll know later." ”

He Qin saw Hong Jinbao, Zeng Zhiwei, and Mecca for the first time, greeted him lightly, and entered Wang Zichuan's office to ask for instructions.

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Hong, they have arrived!"

"Yes! Please! ”

After Hong Jinbao and others came in. Wang Zichuan put down the work in his hand, got up to greet him in person, and said with a smile: "Sit casually." ”

Zeng Zhiwei smiled: "We are not polite to you. ”

Without orders, He Qin brought a few bottles of drinks over.

"Ah Long and Yuan Di, they didn't come?"

Hong Jinbao hesitated for a moment. The tone was a little hesitant: "They want to come over, but the "Shaolin Kid" filmed by Golden Harvest is in the late stage, Yuan Di is the starring role, and Ah Long also played a cameo role in the film. It's tight over there. ”

Wang Zichuan slowly groaned, "Shaolin Kid" and "Jingwu Hero" fought in the ring, both films were made for the mainland market. Although he is very confident in "Jingwu Hero", and the quality of the film will definitely surpass "Shaolin Kid", he can't figure out the temper of the mainland leaders.

Zeng Zhiwei said slyly: "Senior brother, wait until Yuan Di comes back, let him tell us about the content of the video." ”

Mecca chimed in: "This is a good solution, knowing yourself and knowing that you will win all battles, if we take off entertainment to open up the mainland market, our annual profit can be at least tripled." ”

The gains and losses of interests in this regard, Wang Zichuan analyzed it long before the start of "Jingwu Heroes", if you want to carry forward Chinese films, the mainland market is the key, otherwise the Hong Kong film market will not prosper for long, and when the Internet is born and piracy is rampant, that is, when Hong Kong movies decline, Tengfei Entertainment may be dismantled and sold like Golden Harvest.

Hong Jinbao said: "This bag is on me, how can I say that we are also part of Tengfei Entertainment." ”

Wang Zichuan got up and took the wen jiàn and the check, put it in front of Hong Jinbao, and said with a smile: "Inside the envelope is the dividend of "Summer Lucky Star", you can check it, and this wen jiàn is the box office statistics of the theater, and the box office amount every day has my signature, if you have any questions, you can come to me with this information." ”

Hong Jinbao said with a smile: "What does the family say, when a few of us were painting the film, we estimated the total box office of "Summer Lucky Star", besides, I can trust Achuan's personality." ”

Zeng Zhiwei echoed: "That is, Tengfei Entertainment has been established for so long, and investors have never suffered losses in terms of dividends. ”

Mecca took the envelope from Hong Jinbao, counted the numbers on the check with a smile, and praised: "Ah Chuan, I am convinced of you, 25,200,000 Hong Kong dollars, 200,000 more than we estimated, put it in Golden Harvest Cinemas, it would be good to give us 10 million." ”

Hong Jinbao sneered and loved: "10 million, the beauty you think, when "Fast Food Truck" sold 22 million at the box office, Golden Harvest only gave me 5 million, and I didn't even recover the cost, I went to them to theorize, and I was almost accused to prison!" ”

The dividend incident of "Fast Food Truck" caused a lot of uproar, Wang Zichuan, Mecca, Zeng Zhiwei as insiders, the cause and effect are very clear, the budget of "Fast Food Truck" is 8 million, and the funds were used too quickly during the filming, Zou Wenhuai took the opportunity to invest 3 million, with the identity of the boss of Jiahe, he immediately controlled the crew, replaced Hong Jinbao as the producer, and put the copyright of "Fast Food Truck" under the name of Golden Harvest.

The film was released in Golden Harvest, selling more than 22 million, and more than 70 million in other cities, with a total box office of nearly 100 million.

Wang Zichuan comforted: "Senior brother, don't mention these sad things again, I have also suffered losses on the Jiahe side, and I didn't give a penny at the overseas box office, so I forced it tightly, and Jiahe brought a bunch of fake accounts to fool me." ”

Mai Shen felt the same way, before the establishment of the new art city, he also scheduled films in Golden Harvest Cinemas, which was obviously a very popular film, but he couldn't make money, and at that time Golden Harvest had to pay a deposit, and he had to pay 300,000 Hong Kong dollars if he didn't release a film.

Zeng Zhiwei also checked the check, was dazzled by the string of numbers on it, and asked in a daze: "When will the overseas box office arrive?" I wonder how much we can get? ”

Wang Zichuan said lightly: "The overseas box office will take a little longer, and the efficiency of foreign theaters is not so high, as for the box office share, you can get at least 30%, I estimate, you can get another 20 million Hong Kong dollars." ”

"Only twenty million?" Mecca is a little disappointed, he was the general manager of Xinyicheng, and he is most clear about the greasy overseas dividends, generally speaking, the box office of this part is a big hit, and the overseas box office is three times that of the local box office, especially the film with a good reputation such as "Summer Lucky Star", which is likely to show a box office blowout, which was the case with "Plan A", which sold 3 billion yen in Japan alone, and trampled "Best Partner" under his feet.

Hong Jinbao patted Mecca's bald head and said, "Are you still not satisfied with 20 million? This is pure profit, we can directly divide the money, more than we take now, you invested two million, earned eight million, four times the profit! ”

Wang Zichuan shook his head slightly, people are the most greedy animals, and they will never be satisfied, when the Oriental Cinema Line was just established, in order to win over those excellent producers, he adopted an instant and transparent account sharing policy, and the effect was obvious, Xu Ke, Lin Zhengying, Chen Xunqi, Li Xiuxian and others came to vote, but after a long time, the heart of gratitude gradually faded, and they became accustomed to it, as if Tengfei Entertainment should do this, and it would definitely be an inch in the future and meddle in overseas dividends, Mecca is just one of the representatives.

Zeng Zhiwei complimented: "Everyone believes in the company, Tengfei Entertainment's overseas distribution system is the most perfect, and general films can only be disseminated in Southeast Asia, and the same is true for Golden Harvest Company, only we can distribute films to Europe and the United States." ”

Mecca became interested and curious: "Can the film be released in Europe and the United States?" ”

Zeng Zhiwei glared at Mecca, who was demolishing the stage, is it easy to make a sycophant by himself, and said angrily: "Video buyout rights, good films can be sold for millions of dollars, "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" sold more than five million in North America and more than three million in Europe, all of which are US dollars!" ”

Hong Jinbao said with a straight face: "Can you two stop for a while, the check will be placed in the branch committee first, and I will discuss with Ah Chuan, if it's okay, you go back first." ”

Zeng Zhiwei hurriedly put away the check, licked his face and said with a smile: "Senior brother, do you have any plans to make films, now Mecca and I happen to have money, we can invest more." ”

Mecca chimed in: "I'm fine. ”

Hong Jinbao was stunned for a moment, and then twisted: "This time I plan to invest alone." ”

Zeng Zhiwei and Mecca obviously showed disappointment, Hong Jinbao's films were very guaranteed at the box office, and the most important thing was that the films produced by Baofei Company were not shared by Tengfei Entertainment, but the films of Xu Ke Film Studio sold 50 million, and the studio could only get 12 million.

Hong Jinbao also felt a little embarrassed, and said embarrassedly: "You can also produce independently, if the script is good, you can discuss it with Ah Chuan." (To be continued......)
