MTL - China Entertainment Ultimate Tycoon-Chapter 14 Finalize China Film
Jiang Bai nodded and smiled: "Of course, if it is not a domestic movie, how can this kind of swordsman culture be made? The big Hollywood directors can't understand this culture."
"Then these special effects..." Han Sanping hesitated.
Jiang Bai said with a smile: "The best product of our Daoyi special effects company is film and television special effects.
The effect, Dong Han has just seen it, is by no means worse than the top special effects in Hollywood.
This Dragon Slaying is actually just a test of our company's entry into the film and television industry.
In the future, we will make more and better film and television works! "
"Okay, good, good! The domestic film and television industry needs companies like you, and directors like Jiang Dao! We signed this film with China Film, and the cost of publicity and distribution is 50 million, which is included in the investment of the film and the future box office income. , China Film will get 10%." Han Sanping said with a smile.
The 50 million announcement fee may not be a big deal in future generations, but at this time, it is definitely a top standard.
In the future, "Let the Bullets Fly", which will be very popular in the Lunar New Year, will cost only 50 million yuan.
The cost of publicity and distribution of Hollywood blockbusters introduced by China Film is usually maintained at this standard.
Han Sanping directly set an announcement fee of 50 million yuan for Zhanlong, which shows how optimistic he is about Zhanlong's future.
At the same time, the distribution company obtains the film revenue proportionally, which is usually between 5% and 30%.
The specific ratio is determined by the box office appeal of the producer.
For the productions of big directors such as Yimou, Kai Ge, Xiaogang, etc., they usually only pay 5% of the box office share. Because their films have their own reputation, the audience will spontaneously go to watch them.
But ordinary directors need at least 10% of the box office share.
For a director with no name like Jiang Bai, even if the quality of the film is good, if he wants to be released by China Film, he must give more than 15% of the box office share.
However, Han Sanping obviously took a fancy to the strength of the special effects company behind Jiang Bai, and wanted to form a good relationship, so he directly set it at 10%.
"Deal! Thank you Director Han for taking care of it."
If it is to negotiate a contract with the salesperson below, it is natural for Li Zhu to compare, but as Han Sanping, he cannot do so.
To put it bluntly, with Han Sanping's worth, the profit is tens of millions more and tens of millions less, what is there?
Therefore, after Han Sanping expressed his intention to take care of him, he would be a little ignorant if he cared about it again.
Jiang Bai happily chose to agree.
"Hello, Director Jiang, I'm Wang Guofu, the general manager of the Huaxia Representative Office of Columbia Films. I want to buy the full overseas copyright of Zhanlong at a price of 10 million US dollars!" Wang Guofu reached out to Jiang Bai.
Wang Guofu is also very satisfied with the film, not only because of his Chinese identity, but also because the film meets the criteria for Colombian purchases.
Although it is a domestic film, many elements in it will not hinder the appreciation of people from other countries.
The choice of setting the black dragon as the western dragon is more in line with the requirements of the European and American markets.
"This movie can be launched in mainstream European theaters!" Wang Guofu thought secretly.
Jiang Bai shook hands with Wang Guofu, and his expression was still a bit dazed. He thought that in this small screening room, Han Sanping was the biggest boss.
Unexpectedly, there is still a big guy who is no worse than Han Sanping.
But although he was stunned, his response was definitely not slow, and he immediately said: "30 million! 30 million US dollars, I will sell you the full overseas copyright of Zhanlong!"
"This is impossible!"
Wang Guofu shook his head again and again, "It is impossible for the company to accept such a high price!"
"But the quality of Dragon Slaying is guaranteed. It has top Hollywood special effects. Even in Hollywood, it is impossible to make Dragon Slaying at a cost of less than 50 million!" Jiang Bai argued.
Wang Guofu continued to shake his head: "Even so, it is impossible for the company to agree to spend 200 million RMB to buy the copyright of this film."
"Hehe, Mr. Wang, Colombia's interests should be considered naturally, but it is rare for our domestic films to make big productions, so the enthusiasm of the producers also needs to be encouraged. I think it's better to compromise, just 20 million US dollars." Han Sanping laughed.
Wang Guofu glanced at Han Sanping, was silent for a moment, and then smiled: "Alright, then 20 million."
"Mr. Wang will not regret this choice!"
Jiang Bai was overjoyed and deeply felt that it was the most sensible choice for him to come to China Film and distribute the Dragon.
If you didn't come to China Film, how could you meet Wang Guofu?
If you don't meet Wang Guofu, how can you sell the overseas copyright of Zhanlong?
A lot of things in the world are like that.
Maybe your stuff is worth thousands of dollars, but if you can't sell it, all the value is zero!
In many cases, the channel is more important than the product!
Now that the movie is not on the shelves, the overseas copyright has already sold 130 million. No matter from which point of view, he has made a lot of money.
"As for the scheduling issue, does Director Jiang have any considerations?" Han Sanping asked after hesitating for a moment.
Jiang Baidao: "If possible, I hope to show it on the National Day."
The movie schedule is determined according to the audience's willingness to watch the movie. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is also a part of the overall marketing of the movie, which must be determined according to the audience positioning and overall marketing of the movie.
After years of development, the domestic film market has gradually formed four major schedules.
They are Lunar New Year stalls, May 1 stalls, summer vacation stalls, and National Day stalls.
Among them, the Lunar New Year stalls are the largest, from the beginning of November to the beginning of March of the following year, about eight or ninety days.
This schedule has always been a large gathering, and the works of Yimou, Kai Ge, and Xiaogang are basically bound to this schedule.
The second is the summer vacation file, from June to September every year, including the entire summer vacation time.
At this time, a large number of students are on vacation, and it is also a time when there are a large number of moviegoers. Many first-line directors' films will choose the summer vacation file if they can't get the timetable for the Lunar New Year file.
In contrast, the May 1st stalls and the National Day stalls are small stalls, only formed because of the Labor Day holiday and the National Day holiday.
However, even if it is a small stall, it is much stronger than other Valentine’s Day stalls, March 8 stalls, Qingming stalls, Fool stalls, Dragon Boat Festival stalls, Qixi stalls, and Singles’ Day stalls.
After all, it was a whole seven days when everyone was at home, so watching a movie together as a family activity was quite suitable.
The small schedule is neither in Jiang Bai's eyes nor in Han Sanping's eyes.
With the quality of Dragon Slaying and the strength of China Film, it must be on the four major schedules.
But it's already August, and this year's May 1st and summer holidays have passed.
If you don't want to wait another year, you can only go to the National Day or Lunar New Year stalls.
Jiang Bai finally chose the National Day file.
Because there are too many gods in the Lunar New Year, Jiang Wen's "Let the Bullets Fly" and Xiaogang's "Tangshan Earthquake" are all arranged in the Lunar New Year.
