At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 793 Sister Tianxian
"If you want to watch "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", don't choose Golden Harvest Cinema, we won't show it...Zhang Weiping also don't go to the Film Bureau, Huaxia Film or China Film to sue, it's useless to sue, we Jiahe refused to show it, we Don't make this money!"

After reading Shen Xudong's Weibo, Gao Jun felt a little... weak.

Moreover, not showing "Thirteen Hairpins" is indeed a loss to the theaters.

To a large extent, theaters rely on the release of new films to attract audiences!
"Thirteen Hairpins" is indeed one of the most anticipated movies this year, and Golden Harvest's abandonment of the release will definitely affect the theater's revenue...

Gao Jun asked back: "Mr. Shen, can we show "Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate"?"

"...And then United Cinema suppressed "Thirteen Hairpins"?"

Hearing this, Gao Jun got excited: "I'll contact the directors of a few theaters immediately..."

It's too easy to suppress a movie. For example, although the film was scheduled a few days ago, it was concentrated in the morning show and midnight show, and it was only arranged to be shown in a small hall...

After three to five days, the popularity of the movie dropped, and then the normal film schedule...

This is the case with any movie. More people watch it at the beginning, and then there will be fewer and fewer people. Therefore, there will be the classic saying that "it is easy to ruin a movie".

Shen Xudong glared at him: "If you really want to do this, the audience will complain!"

"Complain about what?"

"This is equivalent to choosing one of the two and kidnapping the audience..."

Gao Jun retorted: "How can this be considered an alternative? Movies are not a daily necessity. It's okay to watch one, but not enough to watch two?"

"...Two heavyweight blockbusters bloomed on the same day, and there was no winner. They were all bad tactics for the sake of gaining popularity. I think it is not good for Chinese movies! Whether it is Zhang Yimou or Tsui Hark, they are all directors who have made contributions to Chinese movies. , we do distribution to help these films maximize the market, not to hurt each other!"

Shen Xudong continued: "There is no problem between the two directors. As the boss, distributor, and producer, we have thrown the two directors in the same trench. This is very bad! This approach is harmful to the film industry. A lot of damage."

"Of course I understand this," Gao Jun nodded, and then took out his mobile phone: "But you have to be clear, this is not our fault, it is Zhang Weiping who asked to stop issuing the key..."

Shen Xudong looked at the contents of Gao Jun's mobile phone, and there was a message - all the movie theaters affiliated to Golden Harvest would not be able to screen the film "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" a week after its official release.

"One week?"

"Yeah... a week!"

Shen Xudong sighed and changed the subject: "Do you know about the leader's visit to the United States?"

"Know…"

"One of the important events of his visit to the United States is to re-sign the contract with Hollywood and re-determine the number of imported films..."

Memorandum of understanding between China and the United States on solving WTO film-related issues...

"how do you know?"

Shen Xudong was speechless: "The whole Hollywood is talking about this matter, and the news network also broadcast it...you don't know?"

In April 2007, the United States sued the WTO for certain restrictive measures imposed by the Chinese government on films, audio products and other products.

In December 2009, the WTO ruled that China had violated relevant WTO provisions.In order to implement the ruling of the Appellate Body, China and the United States signed the "Sino-US Memorandum of Understanding on Films for Cinema Screening" in February 12...

"Let's watch the news broadcast more. Don't you know the big picture and big changes? I heard from them that the United States asked for 20 more imported films..."

"20? Now there are 20, so... isn't it 40?"

"Correct!"

Gao Jun muttered to himself: "Three or four major Hollywood productions are released every month..."

"I guess it will be implemented next month..." Shen Xudong sighed: "That's why I don't want to kill all domestic movies... If he doesn't give the key, we won't release it... Endure this time..."

After finishing speaking, Shen Xudong looked at Gao Fenfen: "I heard that Zhang Yimou can't bear it anymore with Zhang Weiping, you find a chance to meet Zhang Yimou, sign him, and give him the top treatment."

"Top?"

"Sign a film contract or sign his team, the film contract is only five plays, and give him a signing fee of 3 million yuan. The second is to sign a contract with the studio just like Ning Hao and the others!"

Gao Jun interjected: "...do you know something?"

Shen Xudong didn't hide it either: "Well, I heard that Zhang Weiping has been in arrears with Zhang Yimou's film salary, and forced him to add plays, and even ordered him to use Han Tingxi as the heroine in his next movie..."

"Who is Han Tingxi?"

"...Just the girl in the poster of "Thirteen Hairpins"! I heard that she is Wang Yonghong's mistress..."

"The gold master's woman... Got it!"

"...Then we don't care about Zhang Weiping?"

Shen Xudong asked directly: "Without Zhang Yimou, how can he jump around? Who will talk to him?"

……

After saying this, Shen Xudong was about to leave, and Chen Xi dragged him to continue discussing the struggle for hegemony between Chu and Han...

Well, she has ideas!

Shen Xudong... also thinks it is feasible. The main company has a shooting base in Xiangshan, and the costumes of the "Three Kingdoms" series can be used directly, and they are not particularly expensive!
The cost of about 1 million yuan, the probability of recovery is relatively high.

But he doesn't really want to do it now...

"There is no story at all. Chu and Han fought for hegemony for 4 years. Han Xin was too fierce. The Chu and Han struggle ended for 4 years. Go north for 3 months to destroy Wei and Zhao and wipe out Hebei; go south for 2 months to kill Longqi and capture the king of Qi. Guang. And all the main battles were carried out, and the majestic formation will defeat you."

"Then take Han Xin as the protagonist!"

"Han Xin became a doctor under Xiang Yu's account. What is the concept? That is, a staff officer and an officer. Now, it is a young man with no education, no work experience, and no reputation who serves as a staff officer or a security officer directly under the top leader. The rank is not necessarily the same, but the position is very important, and most people wake up from laughing..." Speaking of this, Shen Xudong suddenly stopped talking: "It is not impossible to use Han Xin as the protagonist...but who is suitable to play Han Xin?"

"Gao Xixi's "Chu-Han Contest" used Duan Yihong...I think we can use Wu Yanzu to play Xiang Yu, and then...I'll answer the phone!"

Chen Xi was talking when the phone rang, took it out to look, and sneered: "Liu Tianxian!"

"Who is Liu Tianxian?"

"Sister Tianxian Liu Yifei...you won't forget her!"

"...I almost forgot, you answer the phone!"

Shen Xudong hasn't seen Liu Yifei for almost three years. "A Chinese Ghost Story" was originally set to be her, but it's time for Nazha to debut, so she replaced her!

Good-looking is enough, with a single-round appearance, Nazha is no worse than Liu Tianxian...

"Legend of Hongmen Banquet" was strongly suppressed by "First Love" again. There is no way. The word 'legendary' is useless.

Chen Xi has already hung up the phone: "... Liu Yifei invited me to dinner, do you want to come together?"

Shen Xudong asked back: "Your treat or her treat?"

"Is there a difference?"

"...Let's go, let's talk about whether the 'Chu Han' series should be done, and if so, how should it be done!"
