Chapter 360: Raising the Share

"The domestic share ratio is not good."

Fan Weiping's eyes were a little cold, "40% of the share, or even less than 40% of the share, the entire Huaxia producers are making wedding dresses for the theater chain." ”

"All the profits are taken away by the theater chain, which is not conducive to the development of the Chinese film industry."

"You should know that the future is the era of blockbusters, and blockbusters need to take risks, if the producer takes the biggest risk and all the profits are given to the theaters, over time, who dares to shoot blockbusters?"

Not conducive to the development of the Chinese film industry?

Li Lin stepped on 10,000 grass and mud horses in his heart.

Who is not conducive to the development of the Chinese film industry? Who made the share ratio of this pit daddy? Who shouted the slogan that you can't fall in love?

It's a medium shadow!

used to be the absolute hegemon of the domestic film industry, mastering the production with one hand, the distribution with the other, and the Chinese film with the cinema with the other.

It was he who single-handedly set the box office share ratio.

In the words of the time, it was called falling in love and not rolling up.

As a result, the entire Huaxia film production company acquiesced to this division ratio, just to be able to be released in theaters under China Film.

However, with the adjustment of national policies, many consortia have entered the cinema industry, and after a fierce fight, a cinema alliance led by the four major cinema chains has been formed.

Zhongying, the former pride of the sky, was quickly excluded from the outside.

And then do what you have to do.

Now Fan Weiping came to tell him that it was not conducive to the development of the Chinese film industry, and he really wanted to spray Fan Weiping in the face.

Of course, Li Lin also knows. This has nothing to do with Fan Weiping, because it was not Fan Weiping who was in charge at that time, but Fan Weiping wanted to throw him out as a pacesetter, which was something that he didn't even think about.

However, he has only just eased relations with the film and television department. You can't directly start a conflict, just start Tai Chi.

"It's really detrimental to the producers that the theater chain is doing this." Li Lin said: "But in that case, why didn't the producer resist?" ”

"As long as all the producers in Huaxia don't provide film sources for the theaters, I believe the theaters won't dare to be so arrogant!"

"There are too few theaters and too many producers." Fan Weiping was a little helpless, "Although the producer clearly knows that this kind of box office sharing is unreasonable, it is a loss of its own interests." But they didn't dare to confront the theater chain. ”

"As long as there is confrontation, the theater chain will inevitably suppress it, and the movies that are not released in theaters will still be able to recover their costs?"

"But what the producer doesn't dare to do, our film and television department dares to do."

Fan Weiping said. The blood surged, "The producer doesn't dare to fight for profits from the theater, and our film and television department dare." ”

"But cinemas aren't easy to mess with."

Fan Weiping's voice suddenly lowered, and Li Lin's heart was lowered.

actually followed the other party's love xΓΉ and left! Li Lin adjusted his mentality and calmed down the mind that originally followed. Then listen carefully to Fan Weiping's words.

"More than 20 domestic cinema chains have formed an alliance led by the four major cinema chains."

"This alliance advances and retreats together. They can concede 2%~5% of the box office share to big directors, but in the face of weak producers, they will not back down at all, and even some producers choose to give profits to theaters for the sake of higher film scheduling. ”

"This culture has to be curbed, and to curb it is to have a catalyst."

Fan Weiping's gaze fell on Li Lin's body, and his gaze was faintly shining, "This catalyst is you." ”

Really!

Li Lin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, every politician is a Hollywood Oscar winner. Talking is more infectious than him as an actor, if he goes to filming. What kind of actor and actress, they are all killed into slag.

obviously wants him to be cannon fodder, but he said it so righteously, based on this alone, those actors and actresses are not as good as Fan Weiping.

"Am I the catalyst?"

Li Lin played Tai Chi, "Is that so?" I'll go online and shout a word to express my dissatisfaction with the box office share of the theater chain. ”

Shouting?

Fan Weiping's eyes were stunned, and then he scolded secretly in his heart, does shouting have any effect? It's not that no one has shouted to increase the box office share, but when has the theater chain been organized?

For them, what is to increase the box office share, what is for the development of the film and television industry, is no match for profit, for the sake of profit, they can ignore a qiΔ“ shout, even if it is the words of the film and television department.

If they dance happily, they don't mind just killing the chickens and making an example.

In terms of means, China Film is weaker than the four major cinema chains.

In the era of China Film, China Film was a sentence of 'falling in love and not rolling up', which offended most of the producers in one sentence, and waited until the era of the four major cinema chains.

All kinds of vertical and horizontal, all kinds of killing chickens and monkeys, all kinds of carrots and sticks policies.

Big directors, companies with strong distributors, theaters give up a part of their profits to appease them, and as for those small production companies, they are beaten to death with a stick.

As a result, only sporadic directors in the whole of China are shouting to increase the box office share, and the other big directors are indifferent at all, anyway, their box office share is a notch higher than others.

So public opinion has never been set off.

"Shout no." Fan Weiping said: "This needs to be done with real knives and guns." ”

"I hope you can openly refer to the international quota to share the box office of the producer after the establishment of the theater chain, so that you can put pressure on other theater chains."

"Then I will contact the producers to put pressure on the theaters to make concessions."

"At that time, they will be helpless."

The plan is wonderful!

Li Lin gave an evaluation, this hand was the film and television department when Zhang Yimou and the theater box office were divided into the war in Li Lin's previous life, no, or the means used by radio and television.

At that time, Zhang Yimou used a "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" to pull all the theaters into the battlefield.

On the one hand, there are all theaters in the country except for the theaters under China Film, and on the other hand, it is led by Zhang Yimou, the entire Huaxia producer is waving the flag and shouting, and the army supported by radio and television is behind.

The two engaged in a bloody battle.

In the end, the theater chain gave in, and 2% of the profit was given to the producer.

It looks like a victory, but why is it not a defeat? 2% is just a share, which is more like a handout for the theater chain, and the idea of radio and television has not been realized at all.

Why.

Is it that they don't want to make it happen?

Of course not, but the pressure of radio and television is too great, the cinema chain is not a soft persimmon, all of them are standing behind them, even if it is an arrogant and domineering radio and television, even if it is a department of a country, even if it is the radio and television of the emperor who is known as the film and television industry, in front of the theater, they have to make peace.

I didn't expect the film and television department to have this idea in 04.

No!

Li Lin's heart moved, I am afraid that in 02, or even earlier, he had this idea, at least when China Film was unable to control the overall situation, the film and television department threw off its arms and did it.

In all fairness, the idea of the film and television department is good, but this hurts Li Lin's interests, and Li Lin can't be a pawn and cannon fodder because of a word.

"What about Wanda's idea?" Li Lin didn't answer immediately, but asked Wanda's thoughts, "He is a theater chain like me, are they willing to announce it together?" ”

"Wanda's copper stink is too strong." Fan Weiping snorted coldly, very dissatisfied with Wanda.

Wanda's original ticket flowed out of his hand, and he picked up Wanda in one hand, wanting to use Wanda as a gunman to let Wanda fight with the four major theater chains.

But he didn't expect Wanda to turn his face and not recognize people, he actually ignored the orders of the film and television department, and maintained a tacit understanding with other theaters when they were fighting, and refused to publicly announce that he would refer to international quotas and be in the same stream with theaters, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

In officialdom, this can already be counted as a betrayal of henchmen.

Li Lin understood at once, but he didn't say anything, "My main focus is IMAX theaters, I'm afraid there is no such IMAX-3D movie in China!" ”

"There will always be." Fan Weiping already understood that Li Lin wanted to shirk it, and he said with a pleasant face: "I can assure you that as long as you are willing to do what I say, the film and television department will never forget it in the future." ”

"Although the film and television department does not have much power, there are still some rights, which can be convenient for you."

"2%!" Li Lin said: "I am willing to give up 2% of the box office share to the producer, which is regarded as a contribution to the producer, and this 2% cannot be made public, it can only be a private share." ”

"As for referring to international quotas, as long as one cinema chain is willing to relax, I will immediately announce the reference to international quotas."

He can contribute, but he definitely doesn't make a bird.

Fan Weiping's gaze was vague for a moment, and then nodded, "That's fine, but 2% is too little, at least 10%." ”

10%?

Li Lin was taken aback, "Do you know what you're talking about?" ”

Giving up 10%, plus the original box office share, the producer's share ratio is more than 50%, and counting the concessions to big directors, this is very close to the international quota.

And the 10% share can easily cause hostility from other theaters.

You know, there is no secret in this circle, once he gives up 10%, other film studios will definitely ask other theaters to share according to this box office, what is the difference between this and publicly announcing international quotas?

"3%, not more." Li Lin said sternly: "Otherwise, I would rather be affiliated with Wanda's banner." ”

3% of the box office is no more and no less, at least other producers will not force the theater chain for the 3% share, and it will not cause too much hostility from the theater chain.

He broke the unspoken rules, but he could bear it.

And 10%, that is already the ranks of piercing the sky, the enemy who is not dying.

3%!

Fan Weiping thought about it in his heart, and still chose to accept this suggestion, "Okay, 3% is 3%." "Something is better than nothing, and although you don't get the answer you deserve, isn't the negotiation a compromise? In the face of no big enemy, he is not willing to touch the sensitive nerves of the theater chain too strongly to provoke a war that may have a great chance of victory, but the consequences may be stricter.

In a sense, his idea was to touch the interests of those above. (To be continued......)
