"Awesome! Fiction and reality, soldiers are not tired of deceit, is this playing "The Art of War"? ”

Lin Nan is not the only one in the circle who has this kind of exclamation.

The film and television industry, the media, and even the majority of netizens and fans, the vast majority of people are a little excited and exciting to watch.

First of all, the five companies of China Film announced the "Notice on the Progress of the Negotiation of the Box Office Account Sharing Ratio".

bluntly said that there are 28 cinema lines, including China Film Xingmei, China Film Southern Shinkansen, Poly, Liaoning North, Hengdian, etc., and have signed new distribution and screening contracts.

In addition, hundreds of theaters bypassed their theater chains and contacted distributors, expressing their willingness to accept the new account sharing ratio.

In the notice of China Film Wufang, it is clearly written that the market share of these theaters and theaters has exceeded 70%, and the general trend has been achieved!

Just when everyone thought that this time it was really the publisher's victory.

27 cinema giants, including Wanda, Jinyi, New Film Federation, Modu United Cinema Line, and Dadi Cinema Line, held a press conference in the capital and announced the paper version of the "Joint Declaration" with official seals:

"We will never accept the issuer's strong and unreasonable 'price increase' request. 27 mainstream cinema chains refused to be coerced and would never screen the 9 Chinese New Year domestic films. ”

This is what makes everyone excited and stimulated, because these 27 cinema giants account for more than 80% of the market share.

In the film and television industry, the entertainment industry, the media, and the Internet, there are many discussions.

"Here we said that we won 70% of the theaters, and over there there were 27 theater giants and 80% of the theaters boycotted! What the heck? ”

"Is the publisher bluffing? Or in the cinema alliance, there are a lot of wall-riding parties and two or five boys? Or are there problems on both sides? ”

The two sides are firmly holding their own opinions, and the increasingly tough posture has made the entire industry a little worried.

…………

"The film special fund office has issued a notice. This year, all theaters, as long as the proportion of domestic film box office revenue is greater than 45%.

are eligible to get back this year, and the special film funds submitted by the theater chain as a subsidy, at least 80%. ”

"Killing two birds with one stone? It not only supports domestic films, but also subsidizes theaters.

Want to use this temptation to make the theater side take a step back, accept the distributor's request to increase the account sharing, and screen domestic films in the Chinese New Year file?

However, isn't this a bit too taken for granted, like a joke! ”

Lin Nan complained mercilessly.

It's better not to send this notice, it's purely an insult to everyone's IQ.

The revenue of domestic films in theaters is greater than 45%? What an international joke!

In the overall market, the total box office of domestic films accounts for less than 33%, and this 45% of the pie is a bit too empty.

"It's a joke indeed. So the theater side doesn't pay attention to the leaders above at all, hahaha......"

After Yue Jun chatted with Lin Nan for a while, he went out.

He has been frequently called to meetings in the past two days to represent Lin Nan Pictures.

Because of the account sharing of domestic films, people in the industry are panicked and chaotic.

If there is no document on it to set the tone, it will definitely not be able to be suppressed.

However, this kind of major matter involving industry reform, the document is not just out of words, especially in the domestic environment.

Therefore, the film bureau can only keep looking for people to hold meetings and urge the two sides to negotiate and deal with it.

But this time, for the sake of their own interests, it is clear that no one is obedient.

In this case, imported films are very comfortable.

As long as the two sides remain firmly deadlocked, in the end, whether it is an overseas imported film, an imported film from Hong Kong Island, or a domestic company that has bought a batch of films, it will win.

…………

Five days, 110 million box office.

"Cold War" has become the most dazzling movie in November with its high-ranking films and good reputation.

A number of mainland films have been reduced to foils and backdrops.

Among them, "Tai Chi 2" is actually the highest box office in the background board. Half a month after its release, the box office was 68.1 million, which is really a bit miserable!

Five companies, including China Film and Xingmei, are still full of confidence and firmly believe that the theater chain will take the initiative to soften before the last moment comes.

Everyone agreed that even Zhang Weiping could force out of the theater, and the stronger publisher would lose even more reasonably!

Therefore, the publicity of several movies has not fallen in the slightest.

Lu Chuan's "King's Feast" is a bit of a sassy bag, and he sent an "ultimate preview", which is quite capable of pretending.

"Preparation, shooting, post-production, release. After two and a half years of cooking, I hope you will enjoy this 'feast' prepared by Chef Lu! ”

The draft of "1942" is not so fancy, and Feng Xiaogang rarely said only a short paragraph:

"This is the most attentive movie I made in the first half of my life, and I think it must get at least 100 million at the box office before it can be qualified!"

……

…………

Every year in the circle, there is a "Lunar New Year Cinema Watching Seminar".

The participants were representatives of major theaters and producers of Chinese New Year films.

This year, however, the "seminar" may change its nature to a negotiating conference.

It was the first time that Lin Nan Pictures had a movie, and it was the first time to receive an invitation to this "seminar".

After reading the invitation letter in his hand over and over again, Lin Nan's expression was slightly playful.

"Let Director Jiang go, it just so happens that she was in charge of "Thai Embarrassment" at the beginning."

Lin Nan felt that this "seminar" was likely to be a place of right and wrong, and it was best for him not to go.

The assistant answered, and went to contact Jiang Yurou. In less than ten minutes, the latter's call came.

"In previous years, this event lasted for two to three days, and there were many drinks and parties under different names, and the atmosphere would be very good. But this year, it's really hard to say......"

Jiang Yurou knows more than Lin Nan, and she is giving him popular science at this time.

"As long as you don't fight, what can you say badly." Lin Nan quipped.

Maybe the theater side really wants to beat people, but the surface work should be in place.

Lin Nan knows something.

China Film Distribution Company directly bypassed the theater chain and put pressure on the theaters below the theater chain, which led to the 70% figure.

This is equivalent to an outsider bypassing Lin Nan Pictures and directly letting Shanhai Media and Tiangong Color mix with him.

Moreover, now many state-run theaters are also boycotting the distributors led by China Film!

However, maybe something will happen to this "seminar". ”

Lin Nan changed his words and added.

…………

Counting the time, there are only more than three months left.

Xue Xiaolu took the initiative to call, and "Love Seattle" can be finalized.

Originally, Lin Nan was going to arrange someone casually and go to Zhongying

After thinking about it, I decided to go by myself, and by the way, I asked about the specific situation now, Han Sanping is the leading brother of the publisher.

Driving all the way to Zhongying, Lin Nan saw Han Jianu, and Huo Wenxi was laughing with him.

"Director Lin."

"Why does Senior Brother Lin have time to come over and find Lao Han?"

is worthy of being an only daughter, where do outsiders dare to shout like this.

"Let's talk about the schedule of "Love in Seattle". Director Huo, what about you? ”

Lin Nan first answered Han Jianu's question, and then asked Huo Wenxi.

"Have you forgotten Director Lin, "The King's Feast", Yinghuang voted for most of it."

Hearing this answer, Lin Nan reacted. It's been so long that he's forgotten about it.

"Then I wish Yinghuang a box office hit this time."

"Thank you, Director Lin, you're busy, I'll go back to the company first." Huo Wenxi said with a smile, and then walked towards the parking place.

Glancing at Huo Wenxi's back, Lin Nan suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Lao Yang.

Hong Kong Island directors can't make historical films well, and it is really reliable to change to mainland directors.

But he invested in Lu Chuan, which has to be said, maybe it should be like this?

"Senior Brother Lin, let's go, Lao Han is alone in the office at this moment." Han Jianu urged.

"By the way, are you from school, or from the crew?"

"Don't mention it, Lao Han said to find me a movie to practice, I have a headache."

Han Jianu's whining tone, if those directors who want to cast no way hear it, the spittle stars can drown her!

"Cherish it, Miss. No matter how many people ask for it, they can't ask for it. ”

Lin Nan joked with a smile.

…………

When he arrived at Han Sanping's office, the other party was on the phone, pointing to the sofa for Lin Nan to sit.

"Senior Brother Lin, sit down, my dad has someone else's new tea here, try it?"

Lin Nan smiled and nodded, not caring about Han Sanping's black face at that moment.

Listening to the content of Han Sanping's call, it should be a phone call with Qin Hong.

……

"Valentine's Day? Choosing this time seems to be a bit of an idea. How sure are you of the box office? Han Sanping likes to care about these.

"I think Director Xue's movie should not be worse than "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love"."

"Doesn't that mean it's making money again?"

Han Sanping looked regretful, because this movie has nothing to do with China Film.

"Dong Han, what's the situation doing now? Time is running out, I have to go to Jinma in two days, and I don't have time to worry about "Thai Embarrassment". ”

"Of course it's mine!"

"Without movies, what do they play? Do you want to play old films? We also have some theaters on our hands! ”

Hearing the words "the advantage is in me", Lin Nan understood Han Sanping's mentality at this time, which was definitely the kind of confidence to the extreme.

"That's good."

What can Lin Nan say at this time? That's all I can say.

…………

There is no need to wait for China Film to publicize the film schedule information.

At noon, Lin Nan Pictures directly announced the schedule to the outside world.

"Produced by Lin Nan Pictures, directed by Xue Xiaolu, and starring Yang Mi and Yu Hewei, the love movie "Love in Seattle" is set for Valentine's Day after the New Year......"

Less than half an hour after the news was sent, it spread in the circle and on the Internet.

The main creative team has reposted Weibo and Aite each other.

"It's really Valentine's Day, isn't it?"

During the rest of the crew, Yang Mi looked at Zeng Jia with a surprised face.

"Then can there be a fake? I asked from Director Yue, exactly one month before your contract expired! ”

Zeng Jia's eyes were shining, and he said with some expectation.

"At the box office, there is a high probability that it will not lose to "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love", and Ling is the heroine.

With this wind, we announce that your contract will expire and you will definitely be in the spotlight and get the studio on the right track in a short period of time......"

Yang Mi couldn't help but nodded, what Zeng Jia said was very reasonable, and she couldn't refute it.

"Okay, that's it!"

She decided categorically.

……

Jiang Yurou came back after attending the "seminar".

"Director Lin, something seems to be wrong."

"What's wrong?" Lin Nan asked out loud.

He still doesn't believe that something can happen to an event like a drinking party. Although this event lasts for two or three days.

I saw Jiang Yurou's expression a little serious.

"Different from the producers of other films, the boss of Yindu Organization has a very friendly attitude when he speaks, and he bluntly understands the difficulties of the theater side."

"Yindu Institution, "The Grandmaster"?" Lin Nan said subconsciously.

"Yes. The tone of the theater's speech was high and emotional. Directly reprimanded the distributor for bypassing the theater chain to contact the theater, violating Treaty No. 1519, and will complain to the General Administration if necessary.

Today, as the producer of "The Grandmaster", Yindu Institution's attitude when speaking has become very soft. Many people feel that Yindu institutions may withdraw from ......"

As soon as Jiang Yurou's voice fell, Lin Nan's mobile phone rang, and he motioned to Jiang Yurou to wait for a while.

"Who?"

"Director Lin? I'm the head of the New Film Association. ”

"It's me, what's the matter?"

"Director Lin, the theater has held a small party, I would like you to attend, just tonight. In addition, Mr. Wang of Huayi, Mr. Qin of Xingmei and others are all invitees. ”

"I'm not the publisher......"

"This time we invited the production company, the production company of the Chinese New Year movie."

Hearing this, Lin Nan understood.

"I'm probably sorry, but I've made an appointment tonight. In addition, I have already agreed with Ye Ning, you can go and ask him. ”

There was a quiet moment on the other end of the phone, and then there was a hearty laugh, "That's a pity, next time I have a chance, Director Lin must come to cheer ......"

"Yes, thank you."

Hanging up the phone, the smile on Lin Nan's face disappeared instantly, and he complained softly: "It's really wrong......"

"What does Director Lin mean?"

"Huayi and Xingmei are two of the five major distributors this time, and the theater invited them to the party, and they went as production companies.

Isn't this a typical example of winning over a few, isolating a few, and breaking each one? ”

Lin Nan had a little headache, so he simply didn't think about it, after today, there should be substantial progress.

"Director Lin, let's not go, okay?"

"No problem, I've talked to Ye Ning once before. I don't know what to say, so be it. Watch out for tomorrow's news ......"

Jiang Yurou was stunned, "Huh? Good. ”

…………

The promotion of several movies has reached a white-hot stage.

"Thai Embarrassment" focuses on comedy, and "1942" is known as an epic.

Lu Chuan is a little pretentious, ""The King's Feast" made me re-acquaint myself with the profession of director and re-learn it, it has experienced more hardships than "Nanjing", and it must be greater than "Nanjing......"

These words almost didn't disgust a group of people in the circle. Under Weibo, there were a lot more netizens who scolded him, and finally this guy turned off the comment function.

Li An's "Life School" didn't do much publicity. But a pure IMAX3D blockbuster, coupled with the Oscar title of Best Director, is enough to cover all the promotional means.

……

"We went to see that 'Chills', and it was wonderful."

Liu Yifei and Shu Zhan, these days, finally managed to deal with the brand side and began to play crazy.

"Before going to Jinma, everything was fine?"

"Well, Sissi and I are ready to have fun for a few days, and when we are done with the film festival, I will start to get busy again."

Shu Zhan replied very quickly, looking at the meaning, it is estimated that he is going to stay with Liu Yifei until the time he goes to Jinma.

Miss Liu squeezed in, patted the sofa beside her, and looked at Lin Nan with a smile.

"Come and see, I've bought a lot of things."

"It's all food, you two are really enough, are you done eating?"

Lin Nan laughed softly, he was not blind to that big table of snacks.

"Yes, there's you." Liu Yifei playfully replied.

……

"How can you hit a rake? When I was filming "The Legend of Deer and Ding", Brother Xiao Ming was not the one he is now. ”

As soon as she put a few broad beans in her mouth, Lin Nan heard Shu Chan chattering there, and she was flipping through the entertainment news on her mobile phone.

Yang Ying is really powerful, and now in media reports, Concubine Li is already the third party who robbed her of the Yellow Sect Master.

At this point, the sect leader was a little irresponsible, and he did not see it publicly corrected in front of the media.

At the beginning, he also brought people to greet Lin Nan, Ning Hao, Xing Aina and others.

"Then the next time you see him, say a few words."

Lin Nan joked with Shu Zhan, who really tilted his head and thought about it.

"Don't tease her, don't mess with this kind of thing."

Liu Yifei glanced at Lin Nan, knocked on Shu Xuan's head again, and started to fight in the next second.

…………

Sure enough, something happened.

Yindu Agency, the next morning, officially announced on its official website:

"As a filmmaker, we understand the difficulties of the theater side, and "The Grandmaster" is willing to maintain a 43%:57% account sharing ratio. From now on, no longer respond to the ......"

A thousand-mile embankment, destroyed in an anthill!

The first Chinese New Year movie to withdraw from the battle for box office sharing has appeared.

The 27 cinema alliances led by Wanda quickly responded:

"The cinema chain will give priority and guarantee to the screening of "The Grandmaster", so that the cooperation can achieve a win-win situation.

In addition, 27 cinema chains including Wanda and its theaters will not accept any activities of "1942" and "The King's Feast" from now on. ”

There was an uproar in the circle, and the theater side once again made a strong statement, one soft and one hard, with a degree of relaxation, forming a stark contrast.

"What the hell? Qin Hong and Wang Zhonglei didn't go to the party, or did they quarrel? How did it get singled out and targeted? ”

There should be many people in the circle who are as confused as Lin Nan.

Lin Nan didn't go to the party because he had already agreed with Ye Ning, and he didn't want to get involved.

He is now curious about what the situation of Huayi and Xingmei is.

"Xingmei's Mr. Qin seems to have refused directly, with a tough attitude, asking for an increase in account sharing, saying that there is nothing to talk about.

However, Huayi's Wang Zhonglei seems to have gone to the party, so if you think about it, it should be that there was a problem at the party......"

When the first crack occurs in an alliance of interests, it means that the alliance is no longer strong.

On the other hand, the Big Five publishers are not only alliances, but also competitors in the industry. Relatively speaking, this time the theater camp is more closely united. Trade-off......

…………

"At yesterday's party, Ye Ning promised that if Huayi withdrew from the alliance of the five major publishers.

They will reciprocate by giving us a movie, which will be settled in a ladder mode, and the specific level and proportion will be discussed.

I thought about it and didn't say yes right away. Who knew they would be so decisive today! ”

Wang Zhonglei sat opposite Wang Zhongjun, his face was not very good-looking.

"Quit?"

Wang Zhongjun muttered to himself.

"Big brother, you don't think about it?"

"It's been a few days, will the premiere still be held? They are determined not to retreat this time, we are not as good as Zhang Weiping? ”

Wang Zhongjun's tone was dark, and there was a vague sense of determination.

"Big brother?"

Glancing at Wang Zhonglei, Wang Zhongjun sneered:

"Then what about learning from Zhang Dacang? The benefits are eaten in the mouth, and they are their own. ”

"Big brother mean let me promise them?"

"Yes, you go to Ye Ning and promise them."

"Which movie to choose?"

"Xiaogang's "1942", he is Huayi's ......"

"Okay, I'll do it,"

"Take Xiaogang with you."

…………

Lin Nan felt that Han Sanping should have blown up, he was stabbed in the back by his subordinates!

China Film, the person in charge of the Southern Shinkansen, slapped Han Sanping in the face in front of the media.

directly reprimanded Han Sanping, without convening a board of directors, privately negotiated an agreement with the theater chain, and decided to cede 2% of the interests of Shinkansen to the five major distribution companies without authorization......

The state-owned film and television group is relatively large, but there is also competition between the subsidiaries.

For example, China Film Distribution Company and China Film theater companies are fighting this time!

And Han Sanping is on the side of China Film Distribution Company, so the theater companies of China Film have rebelled!

"This time, Han Dong is famous, and it is estimated that he will be teased by his peers in Shangying and Xiying, haha......"

Lin Nan remembered that Han Sanping said to him a few days ago: The advantage is mine. As a result, today, his subordinates turned against him, and he died of laughter.

The roof leak happened to rain overnight.

Very suddenly, a piece of news woke up the entire film circle.

Huayi did two or five boys!

27 mainstream cinema chains such as Wanda, New Film Federation, Magic City United, and Dadi Cinema Line, as well as 3 new China Film and Shinkansen, a total of 30 cinema chains jointly issued an announcement:

"After equal negotiation between representatives of 30 theaters and Huayi, Huayi withdrew from the distributor alliance, its films were released normally, and "1942" enjoyed a three-stage account sharing model......"

Huayi's official website issued an announcement at the same time:

"Compromise appropriately is for the healthy development of the industry. Congratulations to Feng Xiaogang for his "1942" and the signing of the step-by-step incremental account sharing agreement......"

"Within the box office of 300 million, Huayi takes 43%; For the part that exceeds 300 million and is less than 800 million, Huayi takes 45%; For the part exceeding 800 million, Huayi takes 47%. ”

The first company to withdraw from the publisher alliance appeared.

At this point, the alliance of the five major publishers has completely collapsed.

The entire film industry didn't expect this to be the result, the Wang brothers became two or five boys and traitors.

For the production industry, this scene seems familiar, isn't that what Zhang Weiping did last year?

The production industry is scolding Huayi; The Internet is also ridiculing Huayi, forgetting his righteousness......

Zhongying is in a meeting, and Han Sanping is rectifying the interior.

…………

"This account-sharing model, only this one?"

Xingmei is also very hot here, and she wants to flip the table!

"Then don't play at all......"

Qin Hong looked at the vice president and said:

"Go and contact Ye Ning and them, "The King's Feast" wants to reduce the account sharing mode.

43% in the first week, 41% in the second week, and 39% again until the next release. I have only one request, to increase the number of films. ”

"Okay, Qin Dong."

……

Lin Nan was answering Wang Changtian's call.

"The two grandsons surnamed Wang are simply not things, people like them have to be shot in the revolutionary era......"

Lin Nan listened to Wang Changtian's scolding, and couldn't help but remind: "Wang Dong, you are also surnamed Wang." ”

"I, I, I'm fucking ......"

It took a few more minutes of scolding before Wang Changtian calmed down.

"The proportion of account sharing in "1942" is obviously going to the later stage. Although it can't be compared with the total box office betting model of your "Genius Gunman", it is also a rare account-sharing model at present.

"The King's Feast" does the opposite, splitting the account and making profits in exchange for more film schedules. As for "Thai Embarrassment", brother, I'm sorry for you. ”

Lin Nan chuckled, "There's nothing to be sorry for, isn't it still 43% of the account."

The director is Xu Zheng and not me, Ye Ning and they will not change in the account sharing model. But this is a movie produced by my company, and there should be no problem with the number of films. ”

"That's good, that's good."

Lin Nan originally thought that Wang Changtian had nothing else to do, but he was about to hang up the phone, and popped out a few more words.

"That Seattle?"

"Wang Dong, I also obeyed you, haha......"

Lin Nan couldn't help laughing, complained, and finally nodded.

"The distribution is still given to the light, sign the contract as soon as possible, or when Han Dong reacts, it is estimated that he will also ask, after all, Director Xue is also a 300 million box office director."

"Okay, I'll send someone to you later."

…………

Back at the villa, seeing Liu Yifei and Shu Advocate walking their dogs, Lin Nan's spirit instantly relaxed a lot.

"Now, a few of us are waiting to go to Jinma."

"The matter of the proportion of accounts outside has been decided?"

Liu Yifei is a producer, and occasionally pays attention to these things.

"It's settled, and it's all set in the future." Lin Nan sighed.

"It's all set in the future?"

"Yes. This time the momentum was huge, but it didn't succeed, and it is estimated that there will be no more opportunities in the future.

There is a high probability that there will be only these three modes of account sharing, and they will not change from then on. ”

"Which three?" Shu Chang interjected curiously.

"The original 43%: 57%, tiered account sharing, and my total box office bet, these are the three!"

Lin Nan explained. I also contributed to a account-sharing model.
