In domestic theaters, Tuesday is generally set as a half-price day.

The lowest fare refers to the fare on the day of the half-price increase.

Zhang Weiping asked for the minimum ticket price to be increased by 5 yuan, but in fact, the full ticket price was increased by 10 yuan.

"The minimum fare in first-tier cities has been increased to 40 yuan, 35 yuan for the second tier, and 30 yuan for the third tier; Then the full ticket price is 80 yuan, 70 yuan, 60 yuan.

If the theater mentions it a little more according to its own grade, it will be nearly a hundred! Tut-tut......"

Even Lin Nan was a little emotional, this time Zhang Weiping's pricing and price increase for "Thirteen Hairpins" is indeed very high.

In Zhang Weiping's words:

"Ordinary movies are only 90 to 100 minutes, but "Thirteen Hairpins" is 145 minutes, and the price will definitely be increased if the amount is increased!"

Not to mention, this reason has been affirmed by many production companies.

"These days, I heard that the two sides talked a lot and broke up.

Roughly, the theater chain still means the same: if you can't talk about it, you won't screen "Thirteen Hairpins".

But Zhang Weiping is also very insistent that if he does not increase the share and ticket price, he will not give the theater screening......"

Lin Nan listened to Yue Jun's introduction while sorting out the script.

"The theater chain should be discordant, right? After all, "Thirteen Hairpins" is a big cake in their eyes.

Regardless of whether the box office can reach a billion or not, the theater chain will always make money anyway, just the difference between more and less. ”

Hearing Lin Nan's words, Yue Jun was stunned and said with a smile:

"Hehe, Director Lin guessed right, the attitude of some theaters is soft, and it is already a little ambiguous, but the eight theaters and the other part are still very tough."

Lin Nan guessed that this was the case, and it was not for nothing that Zhang Weiping was able to successfully raise the price twice over the years.

To describe Zhang Weiping in one sentence, that is: I have a plan in hand, and I have it in the world!

At that moment, there was a knock on the door.

"What's the matter?"

Lin Nan and Yue Jun looked at the assistant at the door at the same time, and the latter asked first.

"Director Lin, Director Yue, the Film Bureau has called, and asked the company to send someone to a meeting, at ten o'clock tomorrow morning."

Here it comes! Lin Nan muttered in his heart.

Yue Jun also guessed something, "Well, I know, you can go back to work first." ”

"Director Lin, is it the matter of "Thirteen Hairpins"?"

Lin Nan nodded and affirmed:

"What else could it be but that. made such a big fuss, the upstream producers and downstream theaters opened fire when they saw it. ”

"After all, the theater chain is the terminal, sitting on the ground and sharing accounts, so passive really can't swallow this breath, hehe."

"It will be fine later." Lin Nan thought of potatoes again.

"Then I'll go this time?" Yue Jun asked.

"The meaning of the film bureau must be that they want me to go to a meeting.

If my guess is correct, all the people who will be here tomorrow should be the top leaders of various production companies, or big directors and big producers. Of course, there must be representatives of the 37 mainstream cinema chains. ”

In the film and television industry, many well-known directors have their own production companies, and a few are studios.

Lin Nan also waited for the above to shout, after all, he also had his own demands to talk about.

…………

Following.

The entrance of the radio and television is really lively.

"It's been a long time since we've met here, and I'm still in a bit of a trance."

Ning Hao walked to Lin Nan's side and sighed.

"Shouldn't it be a bit of a psychological shadow? After all, during that time, you came to the General Administration every day, for the sake of "No Man's Land", hahaha......"

Lin Nan teased, ignoring Ning Hao's white eyes.

After a while, I saw that everyone in the film and television industry had a head and a face, and they all came.

Han Sanping, Ren Zhonglun...... Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian, Wu Kebo, Yang Shoucheng, Yu Dong......

Chen Hong, Gu Changwei, Jia Zhangke, Ma Ke, Zhong Lifang......

The scene was full of acquaintances, and there was an endless stream of greetings. Today, we're all on the same page.

"Why didn't you see Zhang Weiping?"

Wang Changtian asked coldly. Only then did everyone notice that they really didn't see the "leading brother".

"I really haven't seen anyone!"

"Can't you not come? He is the party. ”

……

In the distance, people from the theater line also gathered together, and there was no intention of approaching.

"What do you say about the cannon man?" Ning Hao couldn't help but ask.

Lin Nan looked inside the General Bureau and thought thoughtfully.

"Perhaps, someone else has already arrived......"

"Huh? How do you say that? Wang Changtian on the side asked.

"Well, didn't you notice that the theater chain is also a little weird?"

"What's the blame?"

"I didn't see Ye Ning, and I didn't see Xingmei's people." Lin Nan said softly.

Wanda and Xingmei are both in the top eight theaters, Wanda is first, and Xingmei is behind.

In the eight major theaters, Lin Nan is familiar with these two companies, after all, these two are also producers.

"Yes, those eight are not outside. Let's go in at ten o'clock, they should be early. ”

Wang Changtian said in a somewhat low tone, and at this moment, several people had a bad premonition.

…………

At about a quarter past ten, the staff of the General Administration came to lead the way.

A group of people walked towards the large conference room, which was quiet on the way, and few people talked.

When everyone entered the large conference room, they were a little confused by the situation in front of them.

The director of the film bureau sits in the main seat, with two columns on the left and right.

Zhang Weiping sat alone on his left hand side.

On the other side are the people of the Eight Cinemas, Ye Ning and Qin Hong are impressively listed.

"Now that we're all here, take a seat, and today's meeting will begin immediately."

It stands to reason that several state-owned enterprises should not be involved, because they all have cinemas in their hands.

But the special nature of state-owned enterprises makes them have to come, and they have to sit on the producer's side.

It's just that if you can speak without speaking, you won't speak.

On the producer's side, everyone's faces are not very good-looking. Because I don't know what happened here before.

"Director Lin, sit here."

There were still a few seats left in the first row, and someone invited Lin Nan over.

"Thank you."

…………

"Today, the bureau invited you over, and I personally presided over the meeting, just to mediate the matter between "Thirteen Hairpins" and the theater line......"

"Tong Bureau, without him Zhang Weiping doing this, he said to change it, just because he has Zhang Yimou and "Thirteen Hairpins"?"

"If we back down this time, he'll definitely get an inch next time......"

Lin Nan served the representatives of the cinema chain who had just come in, robbing the director's words? It's fat!

At this time, many people in the production company noticed that something was wrong.

The people in the eight major cinemas opposite didn't even speak.

"You build a cinema, at least the property is there.

We make a movie, and if we lose money in the end, what is left? There was only one tape left......"

"Yes, you all make money left and right, only our filmmaker bears the risk, and that point of account sharing not only has to consider the return of the cost, but also bears the cost of copying and publicizing......"

People from several film companies also spoke one after another.

……

For a while, you and I on both sides were chattering and arguing.

Lin Nan noticed that Zhang Weiping and the people in the Eight Cinemas were silent, and he had some guesses in his heart.

"Quiet!"

Tong Iron and Steel blushed and shouted, and the scene immediately fell silent.

"Before you come in, I have already talked to the representatives of the theater chain and the producer, and they are willing to accept mediation and take a step back!"

As soon as these words came out, the people who came in behind all widened their eyes, looking at the representatives of their own camp, the Eight Cinemas and Zhang Weiping.

"Children's Bureau, what is the content of mediation?" Wang Zhongjun asked.

Everyone instantly focused and looked at Tong Gang.

"The cinema side accepts a minimum box office price increase of 5 yuan. As for account sharing, the box office of "Thirteen Hairpins" within 500 million, the new picture will be divided into 45%, and the part exceeding 500 million will be divided into 41% ......"

At this moment, all the producers have a feeling of betrayal. No, it's not the feeling, it's really betrayed!

said that the same advance and retreat, but Zhang Weiping was using everyone to achieve his goal.

It seems that Zhang Weiping accepted the mediation plan, but in fact he won. Now, that doesn't matter to the other producers?

"I don't accept this plan."

"We don't accept it either."

"I accept."

"Accept."

……

The theater chain was in chaos first, and some theaters still had a tough attitude.

Eight major cinemas and some cinemas seem to have accepted this plan, and the other part chose to refuse to screen "Thirteen Hairpins".

On the producer's side, most people looked at Zhang Weiping viciously, and everyone was played like a monkey.

Zhang Weiping didn't care about everyone's eyes at all, because his goal was achieved.

As for those theaters that refuse to screen "Thirteen Hairpins", he thinks these people will definitely compromise!

……

At this time, Lin Nan spoke.

"Tong Bureau, I have something to say."

Everyone looked at Lin Nan, whether it was the producer or the theater chain, they all got serious, and they couldn't help but pay attention to it!

"Well, if you have something to say, just say it."

"Today's plan seems to belong exclusively to "Thirteen Hairpins". What about our other companies' future films? ”

Hearing Lin Nan's words, all the people in the film company were excited.

Everyone knows that Lin Nan's box office influence is still above Zhang Yimou!

Ye Ning looked at Lin Nan with a wry smile, this is another troublesome matter. Zhang Weiping is also a little unnatural.

Lin Nan glanced around and smiled.

"My "Thief" also went up to 900 million, it was really stupid at that time, I should have learned from Producer Zhang."

"In addition, "Pacific Rim" will be released soon, how are the theaters going to share the account with us? And my "Space Traveler" is also doing special effects, how will it be divided then? ”

"The Thirteen Hairpins" invested 600 million yuan to increase the account. "Pacific Rim" invested 88 million US dollars in China, which is a little more than 600 million in translation! ”

……

Lin Nan talked eloquently, except for Wanda, everyone else in the theater line had a bad face.

On the other hand, on the producer's side, one is more excited than the other, this is the leading big brother!

Han Sanping's face bloomed with joy, if it really became...... Well, China Film accounts for 20% of "Pacific Rim".

Tong Gang smiled wryly, and after all the calculations, he didn't count that Lin Nan jumped out.

But he had to admit that what Lin Nan said was right.

"Director Lin, we can come down and slowly negotiate this issue. How about tiered account sharing? ”

is different from the attitude towards Zhang Weiping, when facing Lin Nan, the cinema side obviously has a much "softer" attitude.

After all, although Zhang Yimou is a big director, his record in commercial films is still not as good as Lin Nan.

The latter not only held the box office record for a long time, but Lin Nan Pictures' movies were really blockbusters.

If Lin Nan goes to shoot award films in the future and doesn't engage in commercial films, the loss will only be the theater chain......

"It's just me?"

Lin Nan deliberately asked subconsciously.

"Yes." Many people on the theater line nodded.

Even those theaters that continue to boycott "Thirteen Hairpins" have not spoken out.

Hearing this, the faces of the other filmmakers were not good-looking.

"Alright, that's all for this time. Lin Nan's matter, you come down and talk about it yourself. ”

……

……

A large group of people walked out of the conference room, and the atmosphere was somewhat delicate.

The theater line and the film company all greeted Lin Nan and prepared to leave.

Han Sanping walked over, "Go back, let's go talk to them about "Pacific Rim", I also want 45%!" ”

"Then you can go and stop Ye Ning first, and let Wanda take the lead, hehe......"

By the end of the nearly two-hour meeting, Zhang Weiping had become a hateful character.

At this time, whether it is the theater chain or the film company, they are far away from him, for fear of disgusting themselves.

"I guess in the afternoon, the media news will be very good."

Lin Nan said softly, looking at Zhang Weiping's back in the distance.

"He is isolating himself from the entire film industry this time, but he still has Director Zhang, otherwise he will be completely finished!"

Ning Hao shook his head on the side and muttered.

"Hehe, there is Director Zhang? I'm afraid it's not necessarily. ”

"What do you mean?"

"It's nothing, just say it. You're not leaving? ”

"I'm waiting for you." Ning Hao looked at Lin Nan, a little inexplicable.

"I still have some business, you can go first."

"Okay then, I'll go back to the bad monkey first."

…………

Lin Nan followed Tong Gang's office all the way and knocked on the door.

There was a sound of "enter" from inside, and Lin Nan pushed the door open.

Tong Gang was about to make tea, "Why didn't you leave, what's the matter?" ”

Lin Nan smiled, "Tong Bureau, I have to ask you for help." ”

A leader is a leader, and it reacts instantly.

"What's the script you can't get into?"

"Yes, it's a bit risky......"

"Sit down and tell me about it."

…………

After a meal with Tong Gang, Lin Nan drove back.

Liu Yifei was wearing a striped casual shirt on her upper body, jeans on her lower body, her calves were tied together, revealing a pair of fat feet, and the whole person sat sideways and nestled on the sofa.

Seeing Lin Nan come in, she put down the iPhone in her hand and sat up lazily.

"What are you talking about in this meeting, and it's been held until now?"

"It's over in the morning, but I had a meal with the Children's Bureau and asked him for help."

Liu Yifei's eyes lit up instantly, and she hurriedly got off the sofa and jumped into Lin Nan's arms.

"Tell me, what script is it for me?"

Lin Nan dragged Miss Liu's fleshy buttocks with both hands and tightened the person in his arms.

"Princess Sissi, how about coming back to school with me?"

"Huh?"

Lin Nan's serious appearance made Liu Yifei a little confused.

"What are you going to do back to school?"

"Exams, the cheating kind."

"What are you kidding, I never ...... at school"

Liu Yifei said angrily, and halfway through speaking, she was stunned.

"Is it a new movie?"

Lin Nan kissed Liu Yifei's lips lightly and said with a smile: "That's right, but it's hard to say yet." ”

"Why?"

Liu Yifei asked a little eagerly.

"Because of this subject, it's not easy to pass the trial, so I've been in the Children's Bureau for so long."

"So, what about the result?"

Liu Yifei leaned on Lin Nan's shoulder, puffed out her cheeks and asked, a little worried.

"Tong Ju said that he would help me, if it was someone else, he would most likely refuse directly. After all, this script may cause some controversy......"

"Muma, I believe in our luck, it must be fine, hehehe......"

"Haha, I think so too, Mr. Liu."
