Chapter 135: National Day Files
July?
Song Huaiyuan said: "It seems that if you rush to work and complete the special effects shots earlier, then it seems that it will be too late for "Mars Rescue" to be released in the summer." ”
"Hmm." Fang Bo nodded and said: "If the special effects company adds a little more manpower and outsources the special effects shots, without affecting the quality of the movie, there is a high probability that it will be completed in May, and the summer release will not be in a hurry." ”
After getting an affirmative answer, Song Huaiyuan said: "Since this is the case, then we have plenty of choices." Summer files, National Day files, and New Year's Day files can all be considered, and even later, the Spring Festival files can also be put into the alternatives. ”
After that, he glanced at Shen Zhuo first, and saw Shen Zhuo nodding slightly, so he looked at the many representatives of investors.
"Although we Huarui Film and Television are the main investors of the movie, we have always respected everyone's opinions, which schedule to choose, everyone can speak freely, and we will discuss and decide."
That's a lot of water.
First, it emphasizes Huarui's position as a major investor, and secondly, it also gives other small investment aspects, otherwise if it is too strong, it will inevitably cause trouble.
And before that, Shen Zhuo and Fang Bo were slightly angry, and with the tacit cooperation between the two sides in the past, they naturally stood together.
Therefore, when it is said to be "respect", it is really just "respect", and the leading power is still in the hands of Huarui and Fang Bo.
Of course, shopping malls are like battlefields, and Fang Bo can make movies, but I don't know much about these twists and turns.
Therefore, after he answered Song Huaiyuan's question, he did not speak for the time being, and waited for the others to discuss a result first.
"For the Spring Festival, the competition is too fierce, and I don't feel right."
"In addition to the Spring Festival file, the New Year's Day file is okay, but in terms of the overall box office potential of the schedule, the National Day file is slightly better, I think it will be released in October next year."
"The competition for the Spring Festival stalls is fierce, and the National Day stalls are also popular schedules, and the pressure is not small, so it is better to be insured in the summer stalls."
"That's right, the summer file has box office potential, and it will last for two or three months, even if it collides with commercial blockbusters, it is easy to find a gap and stagger the release time."
"Yes, I also agree to release it in the summer."
"That being said, but the audience of the summer file is mainly students, and the plot of "Mars Rescue" is biased towards the main theme, in comparison, it is more suitable for the National Day file."
“……”
Fang Bo did not participate in the discussion, and the senior management of Huarui Film and Television rarely spoke, so after a period of discussion, other investors gradually reached a consensus.
The most suitable schedule for "Mars Rescue" is either the summer file or the National Day file.
The reason for choosing the summer schedule is very simple, because it lasts for a long time, so among the several popular schedules, the competitive pressure will be slightly less.
As for the National Day file, it's also easy to understand.
The plot of "Mars Rescue" is that the male protagonist is trapped on Mars, and most people thought he was killed at first, so after the accident, there was some disagreement on whether to start the rescue immediately.
But after confirming the fact that the male protagonist is still alive through the satellite, whether it is the space agency or the male protagonist's teammates, everyone is united and launched a rescue plan at all costs, and finally succeeded in rescuing the male protagonist.
Such a story is moving, passionate and shocking, and if it is released on the National Day, it is more suitable for the festive atmosphere.
However, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and the essence of the entire National Day file must be the days of the holiday, and there are commercial blockbusters staring at it every year, and the pressure of competition will be great.
How to choose between the two, everyone discussed for a while, but still didn't come to a result, so they all looked at Shen Zhuo and Fang Bo.
After all, they all knew that among the people present, they were the ones who spoke the most.
In other words, even if they discussed the result, in the final analysis, they still had to let Shen Zhuo and Fang Bo make the decision, so why continue arguing.
The room fell silent.
Song Huaiyuan knew what everyone was thinking, turned his head to look at President Shen Zhuo, and saw that he didn't speak, so he smiled: "It seems that the point of controversy lies in how to choose the summer file and the National Day file." Director Fang, you are both the director and the investor of the film, what is your opinion? ”
Shen Zhuo didn't speak, obviously handing over the decision to Fang Bo, so Song Huaiyuan asked this question.
Fang Bo suddenly became the focus of attention in the conference room.
The stakes were high, and he didn't rush to speak, but lowered his head and thought for a moment.
In fact, the two schedules have their own advantages and disadvantages, and there are benefits and risks in how to choose, and it is difficult to find the optimal solution, just to see how to choose.
After thinking carefully for a while, Fang Bo raised his head and said, "In my opinion, it's better to put it in the National Day file!" ”
In this way, he does have to bear some more competitive pressure, but he is very optimistic about "Mars Rescue", thinking that although the pressure is great, there is still hope to fight his way out!
Maybe it's because he's too confident.
But what does that sentence say: If you are not angry, are you still called a young man?
What's more, he is the director of "Mars Rescue", if he is not even optimistic about himself, then what is the point of making this movie?
"National Day file? This ......"
"Director Fang, after all, this is a big project of more than 200 million, be cautious!"
"Are you too timid, can you have a little confidence in the other director and "Mars Rescue"?"
"It's not a matter of believing it or not, of course we believe in Fang Dao's ability, otherwise how would we invest in "Mars Rescue", it's just that the choice of schedule is too important, let's discuss it more."
"The National Day file is very good, what else needs to be discussed?"
“……”
As I said before, there are benefits and risks to how you choose, and the question depends on how you choose.
Therefore, for Fang Bo's words, some people support and some oppose, and it seems that it will be difficult to come to a result that everyone agrees on for a while.
At this moment, Shen Zhuo, who had not spoken before, finally spoke.
"I agree with Director Fang's opinion, and I also think it would be more appropriate to release it on the National Day."
Shen Zhuo's tone was very calm, with a kind faint smile on his face, and he said non-offensive words such as "think" and "compare".
But as the president of Huarui Film and Television, even he supports Fang Bo, which means that the two largest investors of "Mars Rescue" have reached an agreement.
Originally, there were only a few people who had opposing opinions, but Shen Zhuo's support made the balance completely tilt to Fang Bo's side, and now they couldn't say anything more.
But the interests of everyone here are the same, to put it bluntly, everyone is looking forward to "Mars Rescue", and the money invested in it can be rewarded.
The dispute just now is just a difference in the angle from which the problem is considered, and it is not really a fundamental contradiction.
Now that the overall situation has been decided, there are no differences among everyone.
After solving the problem of the schedule, everyone made suggestions and discussed the follow-up publicity plan, and the atmosphere in the conference room became harmonious again.
