The cost of IMAX theater is very high, and the whole set of equipment of IMAX theater costs 10 million yuan!

Even if Wanda Cinema Line signs an agreement with IMAX for 300 IMAX theaters and becomes a 'close strategic partnership', the entire IMAX theater equipment will be compressed to 9 million yuan, which will cost 2.7 billion yuan!

In addition to other expenses, 300 IMAX theaters will cost 3 billion yuan!

And all of this will be done in the next two years.

Relying on the blood transfusion of Haotian Media alone, it is difficult to be satisfied at all!

But fortunately, Haotian Media and Wanda Cinemas are both high-quality assets, and now they have high reputation, and banks are relatively loose, so it is so easy to negotiate a loan of 2 billion, and the interest is not high.

At this time, the leaders finished speaking one by one, and it was the director's turn to share.

is nothing more than those few things, asking for some relaxation of scales, don't cut a knife at every turn, and ask for increased support for literary films, etc.

Screenwriters, the requirements are simple, improve the status of screenwriters!

I can't help it, it's all tears!

The status of screenwriters in the mainland is simply like inheriting the screenwriters of Xiangjiang, just like a small transparent, a screenwriter often can't sell much.

A normal script costs tens of thousands of yuan, and a first-class screenwriter has a movie script of up to 300,000 yuan, even if it is the top movie screenwriter, it is only 2 million.

And that's what has grown up in recent years!

And more and more nowadays, the producer or director thinks of a story, and then asks the screenwriter to write it, and then uses it to shoot the movie, which is not completely created by the screenwriter, which means that the screenwriter is generally hired by the producer or director.

The most difficult thing for the screenwriter to accept is that the script is clearly well written, but the producer or director will change it when he says it, and as for the screenwriter's objection, he has no right to speak at all!

Obviously, screenwriting is so important, but as a result, whether it is in terms of income or the right to speak, it is like a little transparent.

This question is also a cliché.

It won't change anything for a while.

Just like the editorial department of Haotian Media, with an annual income of four or five hundred thousand, it is already the ceiling of the industry, and in the entire industry, screenwriters are so poor.

The leaders couldn't come up with a good way to solve it.

Because the current market is like this, there is no policy requirement that the remuneration of a screenwriter of a drama should not be less than a percentage of the shooting cost.

dares to come up with such a document, saying that if you don't customize the filmmaker and director, you dare to concurrently serve as the screenwriter.

When it comes to the bosses of film and television companies, there are many demands, such as increasing the share ratio of producers, such as cracking down on film and television piracy, and so on.

The producer's share ratio has always been contradictory to the theater's share, and this matter has to talk about Zhang Weiping!

The production company has to thank Zhang Weiping when it comes to it!

Before 2002, investors of domestic films could only get up to 38% of the box office, but Zhang Weiping asked for four or six shares, but there were too few blockbusters at that time, and Zhang Weiping's attitude was: If you don't sign with me, I won't let you let you go. As a result, after Zhang Weiping's trouble, the investor was able to get up to 43%, which was 5% higher than the previous share ratio!

Just this year, Zhang Weiping teamed up with a number of production companies to make a big event, so that the maximum share ratio that investors can get increased from 43% to 45%!

The theater side was once again forced to give up 2% of the box office share!

Don't look at 2% is not much, according to last year's Chinese movie box office of more than 150 billion yuan, 2% is 300 million yuan!

Of course, behind this whole process, is the continuous increase in the price of movie tickets, from the lowest 25 yuan in 2002 to 40 yuan today in first-tier cities!

As soon as the boss of the film and television company mentioned increasing the box office share, the representatives of the theater chains of all parties stopped doing it!

After all, the cinema chain is a heavy asset, the operating cost is high, and you have to invest in new cinemas and update equipment, and the profit margin is much lower than that of film and television companies, and the debt ratio of cinemas is much higher than that of film and television companies.

In 2010, the total number of screens in Chinese mainland was 6,200, of which the number of digital screens jumped from 700 in 2007 to 4,100, and then the number of screens in the country is approaching 10,000, and the number of digital screens has reached more than 7,000.

Every percentage point increase in the box office share of film and television companies is tantamount to cutting meat on the theater chain.

The entire conference room, representatives of film and television companies and theaters, quarreled all at once.

Li Hao smiled, he didn't care about this, because Haotian Media is not only a film and television company, but also has Wanda Cinemas, and there is not much difference in interests in this regard.

Fortunately, he is sitting in the circle of directors, and he doesn't need to be two-sided and not human.

The leaders rubbed their temples with a headache, and this distribution of benefits was the most headache.

Looking at the time, the leader announced that the meeting would be adjourned for dinner.

Wang Changtian, Yu Dong, Wang Zhongjun and others all blushed, their voices were the loudest just now, and Zhang Weiping, Zhang Weiping fired directly at Han Sanping, who was above, and scolded Han Sanping again for being a mountain carving in the film industry.

Everyone eats together and discusses the future development of film.

"I see, this film market is not big, even if you count the TV drama market, that's it." Wang Zhongjun said.

"Mr. Li, what do you think?" Yu Dong looked at Li Hao.

Li Hao ate a light meal and ate with relish: "My opinion, I think in the next ten years, the total box office of Chinese films will exceed 60 billion!" ”

"Hehe, 60 billion, unlikely, the total box office in North America is only 10 billion US dollars, that is, the scale of 69 billion yuan, the Hollywood film industry is advanced and mature, we are still far behind, let alone ten years, even twenty years, the total box office of our Chinese films cannot reach 60 billion! Thirty or forty years is about the same! Wang Changtian said with a smile.

Yu Dong also smiled: "Ten years can grow to 25 billion scale, we can laugh even when we sleep, Mr. Li is too optimistic." ”

Li Hao smiled and didn't explain much.

In his impression, he vaguely remembered that it seemed that the box office of Chinese movies had reached six or seven billion yuan, and he said that 60 billion was a conservative statement.

It's a pity that everyone doesn't believe this kind of thing when it comes out.

There is no way, at the beginning, Chinese movies collapsed and shrank, and everyone was still impressed, dignified China, with a population of 1.3 billion, and a total annual box office of only 900 million, which is appalling when you think about it.

And Wang Zhongjun, Yu Dong, and Wang Changtian all came out of that era.

They have a particularly deep memory of that time, and they are so happy that a movie can earn one or two million.

Feng Xiaogang was awesome in 1997, why!? Because the box office of "Party A and Party B" filmed by him exceeded 30 million, Feng Xiaogang made a big profit of 1.2 million yuan!

In the 90s, a movie made millions of dollars, and at that time, other directors were still earning thousands or tens of thousands of dollars!
