454 The tiger's mouth snatches food, and the attitude changes sharply
Lao Chen's attitude angered everyone present.
This is not a negotiation at all, but a snatch of food in the tiger's mouth!
Is there any royal law under the blue sky and white sun? They control the channel, and whoever they want to release their movies will release their movies, and even if all the big directors in China are combined, their theaters won't buy it!
As soon as there is a proper profit, the capitalists will be bold. With a 50 percent profit, it takes a risk; With 100 percent profits, it dares to trample on all human laws; With a profit of 300 percent, it dares to commit any crime, even to the risk of being hanged.
And now, the account sharing method proposed by Lao Chen is no longer as simple as 300% profit. Although everyone present knows that if "Philosopher's Stone" is released, this year's box office champion will definitely be him, but if they are not allowed to make money, what record, what champion, to hell with it!
What director, what producer, what actor, what IP.
As long as the theater doesn't schedule films for you, everything is empty.
They are used to being uncles in these theaters, and now they want to make them grandchildren? They promise to beat you like a grandson!
Even, a few emotional bigwigs slapped the table directly, looking at the situation, they may leave at any time!
However, after Lao Chen saw all this, he opened his mouth indifferently and said: "Stealing the box office is illegal, the amount is huge, and the license will be revoked." ”
In just 12 words, the atmosphere of the audience changed abruptly.
The big guy sitting here understands what Lao Chen means, as a theater chain, he has basically done this.
If buying the box office is greasy, then stealing the box office is a robbery with open fire. For a movie box office, theaters can take 57% of it, and some filmmakers will promise more rebates in order to please theaters. Driven by the interest of rebates, theaters are likely to steal the box office and move some of the box office of films without rebates to films with rebates, and even some distribution companies will participate in it.
Nowadays, theaters commonly use dual systems, that is, a theater buys two sets of ticketing systems, one is responsible for issuing tickets, and the other is responsible for reporting the box office.
However, this kind of thing can't be hidden from Lao Chen, an insider at all, if he wants to collect evidence, all theaters in the country may have their licenses revoked tomorrow.
At that time, it will not be as simple as letting you make profits, but smashing your rice bowl.
"Lao Chen, you can eat indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense, it's light to move your mouth, but no one can guarantee the next thing!" Lao Wang sneered, he knocked on the table, and said: "On behalf of Dawang Cinema, I will never buy and play the movie "Philosopher's Stone"!" ”
Lao Wang's words were loud and resolute.
However, there is no second person on the scene who can express his position like him.
After all, Tawang Cinema, as the largest cinema chain in the country, had a box office revenue of 8.5 billion last year! The number of moviegoers has exceeded 200 million! There are more than 500 directly-operated theaters in the country, with more than 4,500 screens!
Lao Wang has confidence, so he dares to tear his face directly with Lao Chen!
Lao Chen is just one of the many distributors, and even if you don't cooperate with him, there will be a steady stream of movies coming to your door!
What's more, if Lao Chen loses Tawang's friend, then their publishing company will die a miserable death!
Just when everyone thought that Lao Chen was about to give in, Lao Chen knocked on the table and played with his mobile phone.
"Lao Wang, what you said is very reasonable, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense! There are some things that you don't understand, and you start rejecting our kindness, it's really ...... Hey......" Lao Chen shook his head, and he sighed: "For the sake of friends, I advise you to call the board of directors now and submit your resignation!" ”
"Lao Chen, let me tell you, don't fool me here!" Lao Wang slapped the table suddenly, and the momentum accumulated over the years suddenly poured out! "I'm telling you, even if your publishing company has a backer, I'm not afraid! I don't believe that there are still people who can compete with our Tawang Group in things like movies! ”
Facing such an angry Lao Wang, Lao Chen shook his head. He had no words, no thoughts, but he flew far away.
Lao Chen clearly remembered that at this time last year, in the hot summer, the head of the group in Lao Wang's mouth said a blood-pumping word.
Tawang's money is all earned by ourselves, and we can spend it however we want.
For this sentence, Lao Chen's face was expressionless, but he wanted to laugh in his heart.
You can't be too arrogant, otherwise......
Before Lao Chen could respond, Lao Wang's mobile phone suddenly rang.
After the originally domineering Lao Wang saw the mobile phone number dialed in, his whole complexion changed suddenly.
Lao Wang is at the helm of the theater, but there are still several bosses on his head.
And the person who called Lao Wang was the big boss of the group he said earlier......
"Hello, chairman, what are your instructions?" Lao Wang, who was still angry a second ago, is becoming like a primary school student at this moment, obediently asking the boss on the other end of the phone.
However, in the next few minutes, Lao Wang did not say a word, and his face became extremely ugly.
Black...... Red-faced...... White......
It's simply a family member who changes his face in Sichuan Opera!
By the time Lao Wang hung up the phone, Lao Chen was about to drink up the water in his cup.
"Old Chen...... We, Tawang Cinemas, agreed to the 85-five film schedule, but ...... We want to divide it into 15 percent...... It's all money for maintenance......"
As soon as Lao Wang's words came out, everyone except Lao Chen was dumbfounded.
The 57 percent share was reduced to 15 percent...... What is this concept?
This means that in the next month, Tawang Cinema Line will be working for Jiang Huobai!
Before Lao Chen finished speaking, Lao Wang seemed to be speechless, and another sentence came out.
"If we can raise the score to twenty, we are willing to fill the quota!"
"Full schedule? Lao Wang! Are you crazy? ”
"Lao Wang! What happened to you? Something to say! ”
"Lao Wang! Don't scare us! ”
For a while, the dozens of theater operators present opened their mouths one after another, asking questions with emotion.
However, Lao Chen was very satisfied with Lao Wang's statement.
He took out a thick document from under him, pushed it in front of Lao Wang, and said, "Lao Wang, it's very interesting, since that's the case, let's sign it!" ”
Just when everyone wanted to stop Lao Wang from signing, almost at the same time, everyone's mobile phones rang.
