Entertainment: The opening and the official announcement of the national goddess

Chapter 765 Everything is Predicted

"boom!"

"Zhang Xiao, this bastard, is simply unreasonable."

In a box of the hotel, Wu Rui slapped down the table fiercely, his face full of anger.

Beside him were Xiao Lishan and representatives of several other major cinema chains.

Earlier in the conference room of the Culture Department, Zhang Xiao directly pulled out Wu Rui's old background, which made him lose all face, so he wished he could tear Zhang Xiao's body into tens of thousands of pieces.

Xiao Lishan was also severely scolded by Zhang Xiao, but he was deeply scheming, and he had completely calmed down at this time, saying: "Mr. Wu, Zhang Xiao is not something we can deal with. The key issue now is, What shall we do next?"

A representative surnamed Chen said: "I thought about it all the way in the car, and finally came to the conclusion that no matter what, we can't let Zhang Xiao become the king of theaters."

Xiao Lishan nodded, and said: "President Chen is right, the 6 yuan screen accounts for a huge 40.00% of Huaguo's domestic share, if Zhang Xiao is allowed to build it, I'm afraid all of us will have to look at him in the future." His face turned pale."

Wu Ruidao: "Zhang Xiao has plenty of money, how can we stop it?"

Xiao Lishan said: "I propose that the six major consortiums protest to Huaguo, saying that Zhang Xiao and the Department of Culture colluded with each other and ate up 6 yuan of screens alone."

Representative Chen frowned and said, "Mr. Xiao, I'm afraid it's useless to do this."

Xiao Lishan said: "It's impossible for Zhang Xiao to vomit all of it, but no matter what, Zhang Xiao has to vomit 3 yuan for the screen. As long as we can get 6 yuan for the screen, then we don't have to suffer from Zhang Xiao and the cultural department." coercion."

Wu Rui said viciously, "I agree."

Everyone else nodded.

Xiao Lishan said: "Okay, then it's decided."

On the other side, Zhang Xiao returned home directly after leaving the Department of Culture.

During the meal, Zhang Xiao briefly talked about the process of the meeting, and said: "Today scolding is so cool, it's the first time I experience this feeling of bullying others, it's so cool."

Yang Mi rolled her eyes, and said, "You're really happy, but Xiao Lishan and Wu Rui are probably going to hate you to the bone."

Zhang Xiao said indifferently: "There are many people who hate me, who are they?"

Reba, who came to have a meal, asked, "Brother-in-law, so the standard for film scheduling in China has been set?"

"Yes!" Zhang Xiao nodded, and said, "All movies are based on box office and attendance. The first day's film schedule is determined by the amount of film investment and pre-sale box office. There is also some room for adjustment.”

"I looked at it and thought it was quite reasonable."

Yang Mi said: "It's similar to the standard we set, but I think Suo Li and the others will definitely not let it go."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "It seems that you are not stupid enough."

Yang Mi was taken aback, and said, "You think so too?"

Zhang Xiaodao: "After the meeting, Director Su and I chatted for a while. The six theaters had to sign the agreement due to the situation."

"Although the theater chains will not suffer losses when this agreement is implemented, it also loses the theater chains' great autonomy in film scheduling, which is the last thing those theater chains want to see."

"Director Su predicts that the consortium behind them will definitely protest to the senior management of Huaguo, asking to reduce the number of my theaters and hand them over to build them."

"Then what should we do?" Yang Mi asked worriedly.

Originally, she had finally made up her mind to do something big, but another accident happened, and Yang Mi suddenly felt that she was not well.

Zhang Xiaodao: "Director Su and the leader in charge of the Cultural Department have discussed it. No matter what, we will not reduce the number of trees in our theaters. At most, we will open an opening and let them build another 2 yuan screen."

Yang Mi thought about it after listening to it, and exclaimed: "That is to say, there will be 18 fast screens in the whole Huaguo in the future, and overseas capital will only account for less than 30.00%. Big winds and waves are coming."

"That's right!" Zhang Xiao nodded.

Yang Mi smiled and said, "These leaders are really planning ahead!"

"Of course." Zhang Xiao said: "The cultural entertainment industry has become one of the country's key sources of tax revenue, and it has also driven the employment of millions of people. There must be an overall layout."

At this time Reba said: "Indeed, in our entertainment industry, theaters have always been king. As long as you control the theaters, Huaguo will remain invincible no matter how the overseas movies impact you." gone."

Zhang Xiao nodded, looked at Reba appreciatively, and said: "In terms of economic interests, it is indeed the case, but there is another issue of cultural strategy, which requires the joint efforts of all Huaguo filmmakers .”

···
Three days later, representatives from the six consortiums including Cable, Accord, and Hales sent a letter of collective protest to Huaguo.

The content is that the Department of Culture discriminates in the approval of the theater chain, and only approves Sunny Entertainment to build a 5000 yuan screen, but does not accept investment from overseas capital.

After receiving the letter of protest, the Department of Culture responded immediately.

Sunshine Entertainment applied for the construction of the cinema before the cable and Lutz cinemas. All the conditions were fully met, and the funds were sufficient. After some discussion and research, the application for the 5000 yuan screen was approved by Sunny Entertainment. .

Now that the number of theaters is already saturated in the domestic film market, the decision was made not to accept applications from any theaters.

The applications of cable theaters, Lutz and other theater chains were submitted after the Department of Culture made a decision, so they were not accepted, not because they were treated differently.

The six major foreign-funded companies contacted their country's consulates in China, and each consulate directly approached the Department of Foreign Affairs.

At the same time, Sunny Entertainment was pushed to the forefront.

"Mimi, there are dozens of reporters gathered outside, do you want me to dismiss them?" Chen Ya walked into Yang Mi's office this day, looked at Yang Mi and asked.

Yang Mi let out a long sigh and said, "It must be something about the theater, I should go out for a while."

Soon, under the protection of more than a dozen security guards, Yang Mi was interviewed by the reporters on the spot.

"Mimi, Sunny Cinemas plans to build another 5000 yuan screen, is it true?" the reporter asked.

Yang Mi nodded and said: "It's true, this matter was decided by my husband, and Sunny Company is responsible for implementing it."

"What is the budget for this time, is it paid in full?" the reporter asked.

Yang Mi thought for a while and said, "It's about 200 billion U.S. dollars. My husband has prepared 100 billion U.S. dollars, and the other 100 billion U.S. dollars needs to be borrowed from the bank."

"Why did God Xiao make this decision? You know, the Sunny Cinemas already have 5000 yuan screens."

"Because we are very optimistic about the performance of Huaguo's entertainment industry, especially after half a year, the integration of the domestic film industry with the international film industry will inevitably allow many excellent overseas films to enter the country. It will stimulate domestic films to make greater breakthroughs, so we don't want to miss this opportunity."

"Suo Li thinks that the reason why Sunshine Entertainment spends so much on building theaters is to suppress them. Is this true?"

At this time, a reporter suddenly asked.
