Chapter 80: The End, a New Journey

When filming "Nightclub", Qin Jingyun picked up everything almost by himself.

At that time, the reason was also very simple, there were not many people available in his hands, so Qin Jingyun could only do many things himself, but now that Qin Jingyun also has people available, he naturally needs to cultivate more.

In the era of film industrialization, a good movie is naturally inseparable from an excellent team, Kang Minghui is born as a soundtrack, and Qi Qi is also very accomplished in art, and Qin Jingyun is also very relieved to hand over many things to these two people.

At the end of August, the summer file officially ended, and this year's Huaxia Film Industry ushered in a box office climb, Qin Jingyun had previously learned about the history of the annual box office of Huaxia films.

Before 2000, the Chinese film industry had ushered in a three-year trough period, affected by foreign films, especially Hollywood films, the local box office of Chinese films in 97, 98, and 99 did not exceed 40 billion Asian yuan in each year, and this year's box office results ushered in a strong rebound.

The local box office in China exceeded 5 billion in a single month on May Day, and the box office in two months during the summer vacation was as high as 12 billion, and it is no exaggeration to say that this year's film industry will usher in a new high.

The summer vacation file and Qin Jingyun have a relationship and have nothing to do with it.

said that it didn't matter, because Qin Jingyun didn't have a movie released in this summer vacation, and said that it had a relationship because at the end of August, several movies that applied for a postponement of the offline were all drawn, and the first phase of the successor game officially came to an end.

It is also strange to say that Qin Jingyun can know which films are participating in the competition through various materials, but he does not know which ones are the real heirs of the inheritance.

This person may be an investor, producer, or director of an entire film, and there are so many people involved in these films that it's hard to guess who it is.

And Asia Entertainment also seems to deliberately want to avoid letting these people meet, so there is a special person responsible for every notification.

On September 1, Qin Jingyun came to the headquarters of Asian Entertainment.

After meeting Li Meina, Qin Jingyun found that the beautiful producer was a little sullen.

"What's the matter, Sister Mina, the bonus has been deducted. Qin Jingyun said jokingly.

Li Meina looked at Qin Jingyun and said, "All the eliminated people have come out, and there are only three people left in my group." Qin Jingyun almost didn't laugh out loud, ten people were to be eliminated in the first stage, and Li Meina's group accounted for seven, which was almost equivalent to the annihilation of the entire army.

"I regret and grieve about it, haha. Qin Jingyun originally wanted to pretend to be serious, but in the end, he couldn't help laughing.

Li Meina glared at Qin Jingyun and said, "If you still laugh, you are not afraid of being eliminated." ”

"No way, my single film results are the highest box office from March to the end of August, and I can't be eliminated in terms of box office results or returns. Qin Jingyun said confidently.

The overall market of the box office of Chinese films is that the results of a single film are relatively average, but there will be no films with particularly outstanding box office, and the local box office of the two best films this year has just exceeded one billion, and they are all concentrated in the Spring Festival file.

"You're confident, so you're not afraid of others playing tricks to beat you down. Li Meina looked at Qin Jingyun and said, this person has always been so confident, and Li Meina doesn't know where Qin Jingyun's confidence is.

Qin Jingyun said nonchalantly: "If you eliminate me, will you still let me make a movie?" As long as I am allowed to make a movie, I will not starve to death." ”

Li Meina nodded, it is true that he has gained a firm foothold in this circle as Qin Jingyun said, as long as the follow-up box office results will not be too overwhelming, there will be no problem.

"Let's see, the next stage of the test. Li Meina threw a document and handed it to Qin Jingyun.

Qin Jingyun took the file, and the first page was a ranking table of the movie box office, which calculated the local box office.

The deadline is from January 1st to August 31st for all Chinese domestic box office results.

Qin Jingyun's "Nightclub" ranked fifth in the local market, and ranked fourth in the global domestic film box office.

The global box office of "Nightclub" has been counted, and the global scope, mainly in Asia, "Nightclub" won a box office of 200 million Asian dollars, and the total box office performance of "Nightclub" was 920 million, almost breaking 1 billion.

"The red pen marks that this is the entry, because only the local box office is counted, and your result is the first place, congratulations on your promotion. Limeena said.

Qin Jingyun focused on observing the results of the following films, Qin Jingyun ranked first, and in second place was "A Sword Storm", which barely won 510 million local box office because of the delay of going offline.

Looking at the box office alone, this movie is a bit miserable, it can't be said to be a hit on the street, but it definitely doesn't make much money, the only thing to see is how well the overseas box office and peripheral DVDs are sold.

Turning the page of the box office, Qin Jingyun saw the next stage of the test.

Qin Jingyun was a little uneasy at this time, because the promotion conditions for the next round were a little harsh.

"The time limit is 3 years, and no less than 6 films will be produced within three years, and the film distribution rights will be handed over to Asia Entertainment. Qin Jingyun read out one of them.

20 people will have no less than 120 movies in 3 years, and these people will not play a dog's brain in order to fight for the position of the heir, and Asian Entertainment will not worry about movies in the next three years. Qin Jingyun shook his head and said.

Not to mention anything else, if this ten-year plan comes down, Asian Entertainment will definitely harvest countless film sources, all saying that making movies makes money, and in fact, it is the most profitable distributor.

Because the distributor is completely making money with its own channels, especially a distributor like Asia Entertainment that has its own theater chain.

With distribution fees ranging from 5% to 15% per film, many distributors are almost lying down to make money.

Of course, some high-quality film distributors also need to pay some costs to obtain, such as bearing publicity costs, such as guaranteed distribution.

It's just that Qin Jingyun can't get these treatments at present.

"You can look a little further down, I think you'll be even more surprised. Limena said with a smirk.

Qin Jingyun continued to open the letter suspiciously, and sure enough, the test in the next stage was much more difficult than the first stage.

If the first stage was just a small test, then the second stage was a complete bayonet.

In the past 3 years, the guaranteed box office of all the films involved in the shooting must reach 3 billion box office, and the ten people with the highest results will be promoted.

Box office is only one aspect, and one particularly demanding requirement is to ensure that a film wins four major awards at six major film festivals in Asia.

The six major film festivals in Asia are the six most influential film festivals in Asia, and the important awards are the four heavyweight awards of Best Film, Best Director, and Best Actor and Actress.

Of course, it doesn't mean that a film has to win these four awards at one film festival, but this film is guaranteed to win four awards at different film festivals.

That is to say, in the next three years, at least one actor, one actress, and one best director and one best film will be won.

This is more demanding, not only for the movie, but also for all aspects.

There are 24 places in the six film festivals every year, but these 24 places have to compete with hundreds of films.

"What if no one meets this requirement?" Qin Jingyun scratched his head and said, the box office of the movie is guaranteed, but there are too many uncertainties in this award-winning film.

Li Mena said lightly: "Then it depends on whose grades are good, and the 10 people with the best results will be selected." ”

This is pure Gu raising, how perverted the Gu King who can be killed by putting these 20 people together.

"Actually, I'm not worried about you about the box office, it's just that you are weak in literary films, so let's find a way to find some good scripts. Li Mena said a little worriedly.

Literary films are too variable, and the selection criteria of various film festivals are different, and no one is sure what films will win awards.

The main thing is that a film can only be selected once at a film festival, and if it meets the big year, it is almost a devil's schedule, and it is undoubtedly a disaster for several high-quality works to get together.

"I will make at least four films this year and next year, and now that "33 Days of Broken Love" has been completed, as long as the box office meets the standard, I will concentrate on making art films. Qin Jingyun said.

"Four in a year, won't it be too urgent, can your funds and your personnel keep up?" asked Li Mena with a frown.

After ten years as a producer, Li Meina is the first time to see a movie as fast as Qin Jingyun.

"It's all comedies made on a small budget, and it's not a big problem. Qin Jingyun said.

In terms of filming, Li Meina believed that Qin Jingyun was an expert, and after Qin Jingyun made sure that there was no problem, Li Meina didn't say anything too much.

"What are your plans for the near future, when will the new movie be released?" asked Limeena.

"Sort out the company's affairs, the new film will be released in November. Qin Jingyun said.

Li Meina asked a little curiously: "Why don't you choose the golden time on the eleventh, this time is the peak season of the box office." ”

At this time, the Chinese National Day is also on October 1, so the golden time of November naturally also exists.

Qin Jingyun was a little helpless, he also wanted to release it in prime time, but it was difficult to get a high-ranking film in the eleventh file.

"It's impossible for the eleventh theater chain to give me 30% of the film schedule, and I don't want to give up so many benefits like "Nightclub" in this movie. Qin Jingyun said.

It is impossible to give a large amount of profit to the theater chain every time, and the theater chain will become insatiable over time.

"It's really a good choice in November, which is the off-season at the box office, and ambitious films don't choose this time period. Li Mena also understood the deep meaning.
