Chapter 145: Film Release Plan (Ask for Collection)

"Everyone!"

When Wang Zichuan arrived at the meeting, he was greeted by a strange look, many ashtrays were full of cigarette butts, a few flowers in the office were smoked, and the leaves were hanging lazily on the branches, as if this was the evidence, and the flowers we were waiting for were all gone.

Chen Baixiang, deputy general manager of Tengfei Entertainment, A Can, manager of the logistics department, Wang Jin, director and new manager of the finance department, Zhu Jiading, manager of the advertising company, Ke Zhiliang, the leader of the film stunt team, Yuan Hao, the head of Wang's class, He Jiajiao, the manager of the personnel department, and the manager of the purchasing department, etc., a conference room was full of senior leaders of Tengfei Entertainment.

"Ahem...... I'm sorry, but there's a traffic jam on the road. ”

Wang Zichuan smiled awkwardly, sat on the empty seat at the top of the table, glanced down, and the executives attending the meeting stopped talking to each other.

Chen Baixiang didn't want to dwell on this issue, and then said: "Ah Chuan, let's talk about the content of today's meeting. ”

"Yes, the meeting begins."

Wang Zichuan reminded loudly, and suddenly the audience was solemn, everyone put out their cigarette butts, sat upright, looked at the direction of Wang Zichuan, and some still held pens in their hands, waiting for the record.

"There are two topics today, the first is to formally set up a foreign distribution department, and all the films of Tengfei Entertainment will be distributed by this department in the future, and it can also expand its business and help other companies distribute films."

Out-of-town distribution! It's not a joke, is it? There are few film companies in Hong Kong that are willing to distribute their own films, and the cost is too great, so they are all directly bought out by theater dealers, or lend the film to theaters for distribution, and extract a few percent of the box office.

Yuan Yu exclaimed: "This will cost a lot of money!" ”

Wang Zichuan said: "Yes, the initial investment is about five million, Taiwan and Japan, two important foreign places, to establish a branch, especially in Taiwan, the branch must have the ability to produce zuò films independently, South Korea, Singapore and other countries directly contact local theater companies or film companies for distribution." ”

Chen Baixiang is most concerned about the director of the distribution department, how many people are equipped in the department, and he is responsible for the daily management of the company, so he has to choose an 'obedient' person.

"Ah Chuan, how are you going to arrange the distribution department?"

Wang Zichuan glanced at Chen Baixiang and asked, "What is Alak's opinion?" ”

For the release in other cities, Wang Zichuan has not yet decided who will be responsible, originally he belonged to Ah Can, but Ah Can had no ambitions and refused this arrangement, preferring to live in the crew.

Chen Baixiang said with a smile: "Actually, I think the company's assistant Li Chaofeng is very suitable, he has done it in Golden Harvest before, and he is very good at issuing foreign ports, and he is in contact with foreign cities in South Korea, the only drawback is that he graduated from middle school and has no proud academic qualifications." ”

For Wang Zichuan's employment method, Chen Baixiang knows it well, only attaches importance to ability, followed by character, and academic qualifications are ranked last.

Wang Zichuan said: "That's okay, Li Chaofeng!" Promote him to sit as a distribution manager in a foreign city, and his salary will be increased by one level! Let him select 20 employees, build the departmental framework first, and after a month will be open normally! ”

Wang Jin looked at Chen Baixiang without a trace, and there was a sour taste in his heart, most of the company's several department managers were recommended by Ah Lak, and it seemed that Ah Chuan had to be reminded.

Wang Zichuan asked Wang Jin: "Ah Jin, how did you do in the later stage of "The Frog Prince"?" ”

"Ahh Wang Jin was stunned, organized the language, and immediately replied: "The later stage of "The Frog Prince" has just started, and the film was completed last week, but Golden Harvest Cinema has a vague attitude and did not give us an accurate date. ”

Chen Baixiang echoed: "When the film was finished, I sent someone to Golden Harvest to contact the schedule, but Mr. Cai, the manager of the theater line, was closed, and a small supervisor came forward to negotiate, I think they are insincere!" ”

"If you don't have sincerity, you have to talk about it!" Wang Zichuan pondered for a while and analyzed: "It's the off-season, and there are basically no movies released in the branch under Jiahe, Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long are aiming at the summer file and continue to talk!" I don't believe that they don't let go, it's a big deal that we let Yicheng benefit, and now it's not to the point of breaking up. ”

He Jiajian said: "Golden Harvest and Xinyicheng stores are big bullies, I think it's better to find those small theaters to be released, as long as word of mouth spreads, there is no place to release the film if it is not filmed." ”

There are a lot of cinemas in Hong Kong, although the three major cinemas are the Sing's Cinema Line, the Golden Princess Cinema Line, and the Golden Harvest Cinema Line, there are still several small cinema lines, and some follow-up films and Fengyue films are released, of course, the box office will not be too high, and the attendance rate is less than four achievements, and the box office is at most two or three million.

Chen Baixiang shook his head and retorted: "This loss is also a loss, Hong Kong's local box office directly determines the results of foreign cities, and most theaters refer to the box office to determine the buyout price, a film with a box office of 10 million can sell for 2 million, and a film with a box office of 20 million can sell for 5 million!" If we make less money in Hong Kong, we will lose at least four or five times in other cities, and vice versa! ”

He Jiazhu waved his hands and said bitterly: "Then what should I do?" Let's come to the door like beggars and ask for alms, or simply accept the shares, so that everyone is our own son, and there is no need to fight for it! ”

As soon as He Jiaji's voice fell, some people nodded, and in their opinion, accepting Jiahe as before, this is the simplest and most effective way to solve the problem.

Wang Zichuan, Wang Jin, and Chen Baixiang ignored it together, and it was the interests of the three of them who accepted the loss of the shares, and it had little to do with the subordinates, and few people would do stupid things that harmed themselves and others.

Wang Jin felt that the atmosphere should be eased, and said with a smile: "It will take seven or eight days in the later stage of "The Frog Prince", so don't worry!" ”

He Jiajian muttered, "Not in a hurry? Other film companies decide on the schedule halfway through the filming, and sometimes in order to dare to schedule, they shoot scenes for three days a day. ”

Ke Zhuliang shouted: "This kind of thing can't be neglected, I believe that Wang always has a way, but I think this matter has to be decided as much as possible, Jiahe doesn't give us a schedule, we can go to Princess Jin!" The box office is high, the theater chain also makes money, there is no cat that is not **, I don't believe that the banknotes are put on the ground, they don't pick them up! ”

"Blackie is right!" Wang Jin couldn't help but praise loudly.

When he was in Taiwan, others called Ke Zhiliang Xiao Hei, screaming and shouting, Wang Zichuan and others also learned, and felt that Xiao Hei was kind, and Ke Zhiliang did not object.

Wang Zichuan also glanced at Ke Zhiliang approvingly, and said with a smile: "When this kind of thing happens, everyone has the idea of breaking up, Jiahe must take this into account, tomorrow I will personally contact Zou Wenhuai, Ah Lak, you will also go to Xinyicheng to talk, eggs can't all be put in one basket, I plan to make "Nightclub" for the next period of time!" ”

Chen Baixiang said: "No problem, our company has also reached the mature stage, and two films will be released next month alone, Ah Chuan, the crew of your "Nightclub" is ready, have you decided the heroine?" ”

Wang Zichuan said confidently: "I originally planned to use Zhang Meng, but since she is gone, I will use the Wang Guxian I brought back from Taiwan, and the start-up ceremony will be held three days later!" I estimate that it will be completed in ten days at most, and it will be released in half a month. ”

Everyone nodded for a while, and when "The Frog Prince" was painted, "Nightclub" happened to be released, saving them from killing each other.

Chen Baixiang said: "I think I can talk to Golden Harvest about the schedule of "Nightclub", if "The Frog Prince" and "Nightclub" can be released together in Golden Harvest, it is best that Mr. Zou Wenhuai puts forward some conditions, and you can also agree!" ”

Wang Zichuan nodded and said, "I understand...... That's all for today's meeting, let's all go back! ”

Wang Jin and Chen Baixiang have a very tacit understanding, which has become the habit of the three of them, the conference discusses topics, and it is the small meeting of the three of them that really determines the outcome of the matter.
