The first shot of the Lunar New Year stall was started by "The Legend of the Hongmen Banquet"!

Many stars in the industry are shouting for this movie.

As Yang Mi's first big-budget heroine movie, she posted ten Weibo posts in a day to help promote the movie.

From the beginning of the project, "Hongmen Banquet" has attracted much attention, and the cast is even stronger, and the first day of the release is the time to witness the results.

Lin Nan noticed the treatment the film received.

The theater chain has given enough face to the first blockbuster of the Lunar New Year file, with a scheduling rate of 28.5%, which is really high!

As for how much the box office on the first day is, it depends on the data of the second day.

…………

"Director Lin, the new picture and the invitation to the premiere of Bona, sent to you by name."

Yue Jun took two posts and walked into Lin Nan's office, who was still drawing a storyboard.

"Don't tell me this time, their premieres are also on the same day?"

Lin Nan asked jokingly, "The Painted Wall" and "The Legend of the White Snake" are still a joke.

"It's not like that, there's a day in between, are you going?"

Lin Nan frowned, it stands to reason that for the sake of Zhang Yimou and Xu Ke's face, he should go.

But Zhang Weiping and Yu Dong were so disgusting that he didn't want to meet those two.

After a while, Lin Nan shook his head at Yue Jun:

"I'm not going, you can arrange it. If they ask, you say......"

"Director Lin is busy with the matter of "Genius Gunman", I understand." Yue Jun nodded and replied with a smile.

"Hehe, yes, that's it. Believe it or not. ”

Lin Nan didn't bother to find other excuses, and sent people to give face to the two directors, not because of those two goods.

…………

In the afternoon, Lin Nan went to China Film as promised.

Unlike the last time at the Film Bureau, there was a tense atmosphere between a large number of production companies and theaters.

Today's live atmosphere is much better.

On one side are Lin Nan Pictures and China Film, and on the other side are more than a dozen theater representatives.

"Warner and Lionsgate don't have to contribute, they just lie down and earn it." Han Sanping teased in a low voice.

If it is an imported account-sharing film, the box office share that the producer can get is much lower than that of domestic films, only 13%. But co-production is different, it enjoys the same treatment as domestic films.

If the "Pacific Rim" negotiations turn out well, then Warner and Lionsgate do make money.

Lin Nan smiled, "You must know that the global distribution is counting on the two of them, we don't have the strength, and everyone benefits together." ”

"Okay, okay, it's just a few points, and it's like I'm picking." Han Sanping waved his hand angrily.

Ye Ning is very embarrassed at this moment, the theater chain knows that Wanda is one of the investors of "Pacific Rim", and he has been regarded as an internal ghost by default.

Of course, for Wanda, the proportion of "Pacific Rim" has been raised, and it is even more profitable!

"Can you represent all theaters?" Lin Nan opened his mouth to ask.

"Yes."

The people of the New Film Association and Dadi Cinema nodded at the same time. Other theater representatives also nodded their heads in favor of the proposal.

"Then I'll stop talking nonsense."

"Director Lin, please speak."

"Since "Thirteen Hairpins" has received a stepped account, then I think "Pacific Rim" should be more qualified, including other commercial films behind me, do you agree?"

"Of course "Pacific Rim" can, after all, it is a sci-fi blockbuster with an investment of 160 million US dollars, as for the movies behind Director Lin, how about we talk about it then?"

The people of the Magic Capital United Cinema Line directly played a Tai Chi.

Lin Nan nodded, "It's okay, then let's talk about "Pacific Rim" first, I think it should be able to get better treatment than "Thirteen Hairpins". ”

Hearing this, the faces of the group of people opposite were not good.

Ye Ning played with the Rolex on his wrist, as if he wasn't listening, but there was a playful expression on his face.

As for Han Sanping, it was the appearance of the old god, as if he was wandering outside the world.

Lin Nan glanced at the two of them, one was better than the other!

"Without this way of comparison, we can sit down and talk about the proportion of accounts because we believe in the quality of this movie, but this is not the support point for Director Lin's unrealistic ideas."

"Yes, 45% below 500 million, 41% for more than 500 million, the same as "Thirteen Hairpins"." The people of the New Film Association said.

Lin Nan wanted to laugh, "That's Zhang Weiping is too cowardly, he swore before that he was shouting the domestic 1 billion goal, but it can be seen from this account sharing rule that he has no confidence." ”

"One billion at the box office means 43% of the normal revenue, if "Pacific Rim" exceeds 1 billion, wouldn't it be a loss? So what's the point of me sitting here today? ”

Lin Nan said in a sharp tone, and saw the people in Dadi Cinema laughing, "Does Director Lin think that "Pacific Rim" can be the same as "Avatar", billions?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Han Sanping and Ye Ning instantly sat up straight, their eyes blazing.

Everyone looked at Lin Nan, waiting for his answer.

Lin Nan did not give an answer directly, but put forward his own plan: "Do you want to listen to my thoughts?" ”

"Director Lin, please speak."

"In another step-by-step method, if the total box office is less than 800 million, the film will be divided into 43% of the divisible box office, and if the total box office is more than 800 million but less than 1.2 billion, it will be divided into 44.5% of the divisible box office, and if it is higher than 1.2 billion, ......"

The theater side all had strange faces, and they all felt that Lin Nan's tone was too big.

"More than 1.2 billion, the film party will score 46% of the divisible box office!"

Now everyone is not calm, more than 1.2 billion? Do you really think that "Pacific Rim" is the second "Avatar"?

Lin Nan's plan is different from that of "Thirteen Hairpins", Zhang Weiping tends to guarantee the bottom, while Lin Nan is gambling.

If the box office of "Pacific Rim" is less than 800 million, it is a normal account sharing and has not changed.

Only the higher the box office, the more the film will earn, and of course, the theater chain will definitely earn more, which is a win-win situation.

"We, let's discuss."

"Okay."

Lin Nan and Han Sanping left the conference room.

"Wait another year, and next year is expected to be moving."

Han Sanping's sudden words made Lin Nan a little confused.

"Something about splitting accounts?"

"Yes, this matter is being discussed, please pay attention to confidentiality."

"No problem."

……

"Director Lin, we agreed to your plan!"

Lin Nan knew that the probability of success was relatively high, because his plan was much more "win-win" than Zhang Weiping's.

In addition, he also gave the filmmaker room to look forward to, such as less than 800 million, without changing the account sharing ratio.

…………

The account-sharing agreement for "Pacific Rim" will be signed by China Film on behalf of the film company and the theater chain, and Lin Nan will no longer ask.

In just one afternoon, the industry spread the news of Lin Nan's gambling with the theater chain.

"He has such a big breath, if it is really less than 800 million, wouldn't it be for nothing?"

"We haven't seen the finished film of "Pacific Rim", so it's hard to draw conclusions!"

"If he really made it, it would be terrible!"

……

New picture.

Zhang Weiping also received the news.

On the one hand, he felt that Lin Nan was a little too arrogant and confident.

On the other hand, he felt that Lin Nan was standing on his shoulders, so he had the opportunity and qualifications to negotiate face-to-face with the theater line......

……

"Are you really that confident?"

Liu Yifei looked at Lin Nan and wanted to see the answer from the latter's eyes.

"Don't look at it, I don't have an answer in my eyes, just a 'hum', hahaha......"

"Hmph, dare to scold me, I'll bite you to death."

"Oops, don't be rude, I was wrong, wrong......"

After a bit of trouble, Lin Nan answered Liu Yifei's question.

"I've already seen the film, and it's absolutely shocking."

"Where? How I didn't see it. ”

"The disc from Warner, it's only ten minutes, it's in my study, and we'll see it later?"

“……”

Lin Nan didn't lie, this is only 2D, and after the release, the 3D screen, and even the IMAX3D giant screen, the viewing effect must have increased geometrically!

……

……

The box office of "Hongmen Banquet" came out on the first day.

"The historical blockbuster "The Legend of the Hongmen Banquet" hit a box office of 20.4 million on the first day of the Lunar New Year, making a good start!"

"With a box office of 20.4 million on the first day, the daily box office of "Hongmen Banquet" is expected to climb in the Chinese New Year."

……

Unlike the media's optimism about the box office, the online reviews are a bit worse.

"I admit that from "Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" to "Jinyiwei" to "Hongmen Banquet", director Li Rengang is improving, but the improvement is too small......"

"Feng Shaofeng's appearance is good, this is the only highlight, right?"

"Since you are wearing the skin of a historical blockbuster, can you be more professional in costumes? That hat, embarrassed to death, too dramatic. This is to use the costume props of "Seeing the Dragon and Unloading the Armor" again, right? ”

"What do I see when the two armies face each other? This is the Causeway Bay Fight! It's just a little bit more crowded! ”

"The story is a hodgepodge, a messy stew. This is not a serious historical film, but an alternate historical ......"

……

Lin Nan knew that the points that were complained about the most were still those few.

Hong Kong Island directors have never been correct in shooting historical themes and costumes and props.

Large-scale war scenes can never be played, like gang fights.

As soon as you touch the script, the plot is ironclad.

The plot of "Hongmen Banquet" is unfinished, and in the second half, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang have become marginal characters......

……

Yang Mi quickly browsed the comments of "Hongmen Banquet", and her face became more and more ugly.

"Mimi, don't worry, it's only the first day, and the box office is pretty good. These bad reviews may all be smeared by competitors? ”

Zeng Jia thought about it for a long time and couldn't help but comfort.

Yang Mi is an actor, maybe when filming, the authorities are fascinated, but now I look at the comments on the Internet.

The more she looked, the more she felt that what these people said was fine!

"Oh, I don't want to, let's wait for the box office results the next day." Yang Mi had a little headache, so she simply didn't think about it.

Lin Nan was talking to Luo Jin on the phone.

"What, even you make fun of me, I'm just playing against her.

Although I like her in the play, I really don't have any ideas about her personally, and I didn't know her before. ”

Listening to Luo Jin's words, Lin Nan couldn't help but quip:

"That's a pity, I think Tang Yan is very good, he is tall and has long legs, and his length is not bad, he is very suitable for you!"

"Can I convey your comment to Yifei?" Luo Jin laughed.

"Hmm...... You just didn't say it.

However, I hope what you just said is true, and you don't have any ideas and are not familiar with it. Don't make a reversal a few years later, then it will be a slap in the face, hehehe. ”

"How is that possible, definitely not, I promise.

Let's get down to business, Director Lin decided to ask me to play the second male lead in "Genius Gunman"? ”

"Of course, I can't really go to a few high school students, or current students, to act? How many of them have taken the shot? Newcomers also have to take time to adjust slowly. While you and Zhu Yawen are still tender, hurry up. ”

"Okay, Director Lin gives me a chance, how can I not go. If I want to get it out, I'm going to be scolded to death, saying that I have a brain problem, haha. ”

…………

After getting all the leading actors, Lin Nan was relieved.

"Now it's just a matter of waiting for the script. Kid's Bureau, don't go wrong and pit me! ”

……

"Can anyone tell me how this script passed the review?!"

In the review department of the Film Bureau, an old man with blue bags under his eyes roared with a full breath.

Several old men in their early sixties also waited for answers with serious faces.

"Don't toss a few of you, the Children's Bureau will do it personally!"

A person who looks a little younger, in his forties and less than fifty, said coldly.

"Child's Bureau?"

Hearing this, everyone still didn't understand that Lin Nan directly sent the script to Tong Gang and did something that he did at a higher level!

"I remember that you have a good relationship with Tian Zhuang, right?"

"Hehe, you've been thinking about it a lot."

The middle-aged man in his forties smiled helplessly.

……

……

The media soon discovered that a familiar name appeared in the list of scripts that have been reviewed on the official website of the Film Bureau.

"Lin Nan directed the script, and "Genius Gunman" passed the review smoothly after being revised."

…………

"Hurry up and go for the film record and get the shooting permit as soon as possible."

As soon as Lin Nan got the news, he ordered Yue Jun to act quickly.

"Director Lin, I'll go right away!"
