Chapter 296 The Chipgate Incident, the global box office is 14.85 billion Chinese dollars
The final domestic box office of "Wandering Land Star" is 6.79 billion!
The box office of Beiberry Island is 490 million US dollars, ranking first on the list!
Euro box office 270 million US dollars!
The box office of Latin Berry Island is 130 million US dollars!
The remaining countries and regions, the total box office is 350 million US dollars!
Worldwide, the box office of "Wandering Land Star" has reached 14.85 billion Chinese dollars, and Guo Wan has become the hottest commercial director in China, and he is also the second director of Shanhai Film and Television to break through the 10 billion box office mark in his personal directing performance.
Whale Film and Television, which originally ridiculed Chen Heyu for accepting Guo Wan and not making a dime for two years, instantly closed his mouth.
Feng Xiaogang of Huayi deleted the previous blog post mocking "Wandering Land Star" overnight, put on a new face, and announced beautifully: "Thank you for the invitation of Shanhai Film and Television, congratulations to Director Guo on the box office hit, see you in Shanghai next week!" ”
attracted the disdain of netizens, and frantically sent screenshots in the comment area, all of which were his ridicule of the argument that the investment of "Wandering Land Star" was too large and it was difficult to return the cost.
"The first part of "Wandering Land Star" made tens of billions of dollars, and the boss of Shanhai Film and Television really has an investment vision."
Below this blog post, it attracted tens of thousands of likes.
On the way to the hotel, Chen Heyu happened to see this with his mobile phone and couldn't help but smile.
Don't look at the global box office of 14.85 billion Chinese dollars, but Shanhai Film and Television can get only a fraction of it, about 4.8 billion, and the remaining profits will be distributed to cinemas and distribution channels, deducting production costs, and only 3.5 billion Chinese dollars will be earned.
And the money will have to wait at least half a year, or even a year, to arrive, and the settlement cycle is very long.
The remaining sources of income are mainly the broadcast rights of TV channels around movies and Beiberry Zhou, and foreigners prefer to watch movies at home.
Generally speaking, a movie with a box office of 500 million US dollars will not have subsequent derivative income lower than its box office results.
In short, the total revenue brought by "The Wandering Earth Star" to the company may reach more than 6 billion Chinese dollars.
is almost worth ten blockbuster movies with a box office of 3 billion, which is the powerful ability of phenomenal science fiction movies to attract money.
If the peripheral goods are properly operated, they can even become a long-lasting IP, creating a steady stream of income for Shanhai Film and Television.
Chen Heyu smiled slightly, such a good apocalyptic theme as "Wandering Earth Star" naturally needs to be changed to a VR holographic game, so that more people can feel the despair and desolation of the wasteland world.
Not for a while.
Lao Mo drove off the viaduct and drove straight towards Pullman, and saw the bustling crowd in front of the gate from a distance.
The fountain is reflected in the neon lights, presenting a sense of colorful blur.
"Bang dang"!
Chen Heyu pushed the car door and stepped out.
Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Guo Wan standing aside in a suit and leather shoes, his personal image was extremely neat, and next to him stood Wu Jin, Liu Dehua and others, all of whom were the main creators of "The Wandering Land Star".
"Hello boss!"
"Mr. Chen is good!"
Several people greeted each other in unison, with a spring breeze on their faces, obviously the success of the movie has benefited them a lot.
"Today you are the protagonist, dressed very handsome, what about Lao Lin?"
Chen Heyu patted Guo Wan's shoulder and asked with a smile.
"The director of Huaying is here, and Mr. Lin is accompanying him."
Guo Wan replied.
"Okay, you're busy, I'll go up and have a look."
Chen Heyu's face froze, and a meaningful smile appeared in his narrow eyes.
It seems that the great achievements of "The Wandering Earth Star" in the overseas market still shake the minds of the above.
With the current development trend of Shanhai Film and Television, it is obviously migrating to the international market.
The VR games and TV series of "Mysterious Recovery" have not been launched in Dahua, and they can still make a lot of money.
This kind of film and television production company that is not under the control of the China Film and Entertainment Department has made it difficult for a group of bigwigs, and it is not easy to produce a strong private enterprise, but it frequently relies on overseas markets to make profits.
It's as if they have nothing to do with this performance!
Therefore, at this celebration party, not only the new directors of Huaying were present in person, but even the directors of the entertainment department were also happy to agree.
A group of senior producers and celebrities are the most inconspicuous.
Up to now, dozens of big names such as Zhang Yimou, Xiao Yang, Zhou Xingxing, Feng Xiaogang, Da Peng, Liu Weiqiang and Xu Laowei have appeared;
The artists who appeared include Cheng Long, Deng Chao, Bai Jingting, Li Xian, Hu Ge, Liu Yifei, Tan Songyun, Wu Qian, Wu Lei and other more than 200 artists.
None of them want to go to the big tree of mountains and seas, and take the opportunity to sprint to the house.
Chen Heyu took Lao Mo into the elevator, pressed the floor button of the conference hall on the top floor, and then slowly climbed up, and the buildings on the side of the road gradually shrank.
"Ding!"
The elevator doors unfold slowly, and a luxurious, noisy, star-studded scene comes into view.
Walking into the banquet hall, Liu Xiaowan twisted her graceful posture, walked over to her, and said lightly:
"Boss, Director Zhao wants to meet you."
"Take me there."
Chen Heyu nodded, thinking about seeing what routine the other party had waiting for him.
Walking all the way, he met a lot of old acquaintances, and the chatting was delayed for more than ten minutes, and when he came to a wine table above, he saw a man with a Chinese face and inch hair at first sight, almost fifty years old, wearing a pair of glasses, revealing a polite and polite atmosphere.
The expression of the smile seems to be approachable.
Chen Heyu smiled lightly, and when he saw Huaying's new boss, sitting on the side and accompanying him carefully, he understood that this person was by no means as simple as it seemed.
"Director Zhao, I'm sorry, there is a traffic jam on the road, so you have to wait for a long time."
He smiled and spoke enthusiastically.
Today's identity, Huaying can not care about it, but the attitude of the Entertainment Department must be taken seriously, although the focus of his career is no longer in the film industry, there are still thousands of people below who want to eat at each other's faces.
"Mr. Chen's words are serious, I just came, please take a seat."
Director Zhao said with a smile.
Have a seat?
A table is full, where is there any vacancy?
Suddenly, a knowledgeable and knowledgeable fat man stood up and gave up a position, and the other party was the boss of Bona Film and Television, Yu Fatzi.
"Mr. Yu, I'm in trouble."
Chen Heyu nodded in greeting, and then Shi Shiran sat down, with Director Zhao on the left and the new director of Huaying on the right.
"The game approval and TV series license of "Mysterious Recovery", I didn't agree to it, what does Mr. Chen think?"
Director Zhao pondered for a few seconds and took the initiative to ask.
"Of course labor and management are not happy."
Chen Heyu scolded secretly.
His face was as calm as ever, with a warm smile, and he said disapprerovingly: "From the company's point of view, there will be some losses, but from a personal point of view, I can understand Director Zhao's approach, after all, it is a horror-themed film and television work, in case of a bad impact, I will also be uneasy." ”
"Really?"
Director Zhao put down the wine glass, touched his nose, and said in his heart: "What a little fox!" You took "Mysterious Recovery" to be released abroad, and several foreigners were hospitalized with fright, and I didn't see you apologize! ”
"I have my own difficulties that you don't understand, if Shanhai Film and Television is willing to make deletions and adjustments, it doesn't mean that it must not be given."
Director Zhao released goodwill.
The purpose of his trip is to win over Chen Heyu, and the achievements of Shanhai Film and Television and Shanhai Video in the overseas market alone are enough to make the Literature and Art Department pay attention to it.
Over the years, how many filmmakers have people like Han San supported to go to sea?
In the end, the harvest is pitiful, and now there are ready-made merits to harvest, it depends on whether the other party can take the bait?
"I'll ask the production department to hold a meeting to discuss the feasibility."
Chen Heyu was disdainful and said casually.
The revenue generated by "Mysterious Recovery" in China is limited, mainly because the cost of copyright procurement and corporate loan forgiveness is too high, and membership income and advertising revenue alone cannot cover the expenses at all.
This is also the main reason why some streaming sites will dare to take risks and occupy the broadband resources of platform users in the next few years.
Either engage in a little snag operation to survive, or continue to lose money and wait for death.
There are many platforms and fierce competition, which is far less easy to make money than overseas markets.
Director Zhao frowned, he was not stupid, he saw Chen Heyu's prevarication, and understood that if he didn't come up with some sweetness, the big fish in front of him would not be willing to bite the hook.
What's more, Chen Heyu, who holds the two hole cards of artificial intelligence and semiconductors, has the confidence to flip the table at any time.
It's a big deal for people to pick and choose, and focus their revenue on overseas markets, which can also be mixed.
He heard the above mention that Chen Heyu got the admission ticket for a private airline from Meng Lao.
The person who dares to play like this is by no means something he can easily handle!
With just his connections, he can't treat the other party as an ordinary film and television company boss.
"Did Mr. Chen encounter any trouble that he couldn't solve, or something that needed help urgently?"
Director Zhao was rejected, but did not move, but asked with a smile.
His subtext is extremely direct, you talk about the conditions first, as long as it is within my authority, I can help you get it.
"Does the approval of Mystic Recovery count?"
Chen Heyu said.
When Director Zhao heard this, he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, don't you know the situation of "Mysterious Recovery"?
In North America, I only got the AO level, how can I pass the review in China!
Why do you want to spend it on weird themes? Wouldn't it be nice to shoot more works like "The Wandering Land Star"?
"I can't say yes, let's ask for something else."
Director Zhao said in a muffled voice.
"Then I haven't encountered trouble for the time being, and I will ask Director Zhao in the future."
Chen Heyu grinned, his tone flat.
Director Zhao saw that he didn't eat oil and salt, so he shook his head helplessly and said, "It's not impossible." ”
"Oh? Is it? What did Director Zhao say? Shanhai Film and Television is willing to cooperate. ”
Chen Heyu became interested and asked.
"The real-name system entry threshold is strictly implemented, and users under the age of 18 cannot log in to "Mysterious Recovery", nor can they watch the "Mysterious Recovery" web series."
Director Zhao said lightly.
In fact, he knows that this practice is purely covering his ears and stealing the bell, and Shanhai Video has not released the "Mysterious Recovery" web series, which does not mean that young people in China have not watched this drama.
Network disks, pirated websites, and hard disks are all resources for this show.
There are many people who secretly play the VR game "Mysterious Recovery" in China, and the entertainment department can't ban it all.
But it's one thing to know, it's another thing to speak.
"Director Zhao, the Dream game pod can detect the user's brainwave information, so as to accurately determine whether he is an adult, you can rest assured."
Chen Heyu assured.
"What about the web drama?"
Director Zhao asked again.
"Restrictions can only be made on the account."
Chen Heyu spread his hands and said that there was no other way.
"Let's submit the game for review again, the broadcast license of the online drama, I am powerless."
Director Zhao thought for a moment and gave an answer.
"I'm in trouble."
Chen Heyu said in a deep voice, progress is a good thing.
"Mr. Chen, there is a tribute film that originally wanted Bona to take over, but at present, it seems that Shanhai Film and Television is the best choice......
There is also a film about the ancient civilization of China, see if you can help control one or two......"
Director Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said his request.
Boy!
It's all extremely difficult tasks, to put it bluntly, it is necessary to make boring science and education works achieve commercial results in overseas markets.
"Mr. Chen, do you have confidence?"
Director Zhao looked at him and frowned, and couldn't help but ask.
"It's not a big problem, you have to add money!"
Chen Heyu smiled.
Then, he said his thoughts, anyway, as long as the entertainment department is effective, there is no need to be limited to the form, and the film content with historical themes will be converted into interactive VR holographic videos, giving the audience a sense of experience through time and space.
"How much production money does such a work need?"
Director Zhao faintly felt that there was something in the middle, but he couldn't think it through for a while, so he asked.
"A billion Chinese dollars."
Chen Heyu replied lightly.
He really didn't open his mouth, just imagine, a movie has to be generated by artificial intelligence data, and it has to use massive computing and GPU resources, if there is no supercomputer in Huhai, it can't be completed at all.
"So expensive?"
Director Zhao is very sure at this moment that Chen Heyu is definitely cheating on him.
"If you don't feel suitable, Shanhai Film and Television can participate in it."
Chen Heyu said indifferently.
In this way, Director Zhao was confused, and finally after some communication, the theme of this project was set as "Datang iQue", Shanhai Film and Television invested 500 million Chinese dollars, accounting for 60% of the dividend rights, and the Entertainment Department took out 500 million Chinese dollars to have the remaining income rights.
After the negotiation, Chen Heyu chatted with a group of heavyweights in the film and television industry about the New Year's project.
Even artists of Cheng Long's magnitude are rushing to ask for cooperation.
In the past few years, most of his new works have hit the streets, and the box office results have been dismal, and in the face of waves like Xiao Yang and Guo Wan, I can't help but feel a sense of urgency.
The last time he cooperated in "Mysterious Recovery", it was only a supporting role, and his idea was to cooperate deeply with Shanhai Film and Television to create a separate movie for him.
Chen Heyu thought about it and didn't agree at the first time, but promised to have a chance to talk about it.
"Buzz!"
Sensing the phone ringing in his pocket, he made a gesture of being out of company, walked out of the banquet hall, and pressed the answer button.
"What's the matter?"
He asked in a deep voice.
"The batch of Snapdragon 820 chips we helped with Pickaxe foundry have a large number of user complaints, high energy consumption and poor battery life."
He Tingbo said urgently.
"Have you investigated the reason?"
Chen Heyu said, his first reaction was not to believe it, and he knew best about the process manufacturing flow of Shanhai Microelectronics.
There is no such problem at all!
In addition, I have done batch performance tests before, and there is no problem with weak battery life.
"I also just received the news that Meng Haodong and Hotong are ready to recall a batch of partners' mobile phones to comprehensively test the chip problem."
He Tingbo added.
"Got it, I'll be notified when the result is available."
Chen Heyu was slightly depressed, and explained clearly to He Tingbo before putting down the phone.
"Could it be Gulf Semiconductor Company?"
He thought about it alone, and he had a handful of Zhang Zhimou in front of him, and now that his chip was in trouble, he immediately thought that someone was making small moves.
……
Goryeo Peninsula.
In front of the LG mobile phone store.
Surrounded by buyers who want to return the goods, because of the same product model, there is an uneven quality, and some mobile phones have poor heat dissipation and the power drops quickly.
"Assi! Hurry up and give the labor and management a refund! ”
A grumpy bald man banged vigorously on the glass counter and scolded at the beautiful salesman.
