Entertainment Guru Rebirth

Although Hollywood has eight major film companies, the real cornerstone is not them, but a large number of small and medium film companies.

Last time, they sued the eight major companies for monopolizing the theaters with the anti-monopoly law, oppressing them wantonly, and was resolved by the eight major film companies in various ways.

The small and medium-sized film and television companies that originally wanted to control the theaters failed to achieve their goals and were very depressed, but they had no choice but to die and continue to be oppressed by them.

But once new theaters appear in Europe and America, it is definitely good news for these small and medium film companies. At the very least, they have another choice, they don't need to hang on a tree as before.

Therefore, the bosses behind these companies urged Congress to agree to China's request. For people like him, making money is the most important thing. As for any cultural invasion, they don't care.

Just like last time, the power of the eight major film companies is simply not enough to compete with them. After three days of heated discussions, more than 50% of the members have approved the construction of a new theater line in China. Once there is another 10% agreement, the matter will be settled.

Therefore, in the past few days, the heads of the eight major film companies are anxious like ants on a hot pot, but there is no way.

As the initiator of this incident, Xiao Yunhai didn't feel a little embarrassed, and said to Kerry: "This kind of thing, let it take its course."

Kerry sighed, "Xiao, I have to say, your luck is really good. If you knew it would be like this, no company would sell you their theater shares at a reduced price."

Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said: "No way, my luck has always been good. Okay, it's useless if you don't talk to you. My intention has been clearly stated on the phone. This is our Huaxia Brilliant Film and Television. The boss of the company, Mr. Chu Heng, this is Mr. Jiao Fangtao, the film director of "Xiao Cui". I want "Xiao Cui" to be shown on your MGM theater. Tell me if there are any better schedules lately?"

Kerry stood up, shook hands with Chu Heng and Jiao Fangtao politely, and then unceremoniously said to Xiao Yunhai: "No. You know, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" is about to be released. With its popularity, it is estimated that your film will be difficult to compete with it."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Nonsense, even if I can contend, I won't choose it at the same time. If I pk my own stupid thing, I won't kill me. Let's go, when will "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" premiere? reflect?"

Kerry said, "It's March 18th here in Europe and America, and it may be a few days later in China."

Xiao Yunhai thought for a while and said, "Kerry, show me your schedule."

Kerry opened the drawer, took out a thick stack of materials, and said, "This is the schedule for all theaters. You can study it."

Xiao Yunhai took it and handed it over to Chu Heng, saying, "It really is my good brother. Mr. Chu, you and Director Jiao have a look and choose which day is better."

Chu Heng nodded and looked at Jiao Fangtao seriously.

Ten minutes later, Chu Heng put down the material and said, "Mr. Xiao, Mr. Smith, I want to release it on March 25."

Kerry thought for a while, and said, "I remember that Columbia Pictures' "Tarzan" will be released worldwide on March 27. President Chu, are you sure it is March 25?"

Chu Heng nodded and said: "No matter which day you will encounter a strong opponent. In that case, we will choose to release it on the same day as China."

Kerry said, "No problem. Xiao's vision has always been accurate. Since he brought your movie to the United States, it means that this "Little Cui" must be very good. Then, maybe it will be able to bring Colombia's "Tarzan". Kill it. Xiao, have you contacted the other theaters?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "It's just a phone call."

Unfortunately, Xiao Yunhai hit a wall this time, and the problem lies with Warner Cinemas.

Because it has already signed contracts with other films, it was unable to give Xiao Yunhai more than 40% of the film output in the first two days, and it was able to free up 10%. But if the attendance rate is high, the number of films can be increased on the third day.

In this regard, Xiao Yunhai was also very helpless. After all, they came a little late, and they were able to squeeze out hundreds of screens in the already arranged plan.

After talking to the person in charge of Warner Cinemas, Xiao Yunhai talked about the matter with Chu Heng and asked: "Mr. Chu, can you postpone the screening of "Xiao Cui" until after May? Warner's screen at that time The number can definitely exceed 40%."

Chu Heng shook his head and said, "Mr. Xiao, we are very satisfied that "Xiao Cui" can have 2,600 screens in North American theaters. If this movie can succeed in North America and sell well at the box office, then it We don’t need to worry about the number of screens in the world. There is no theater chain that can’t live with money. On the contrary, if the movie fails, even if we give us a thousand screens in the first three days, it will not help."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Chu is wise. The success of a movie ultimately depends on its quality. Propaganda is only useful for the early stage. With high quality and good reputation, the box office can continue to be popular."

Chu Heng said, "That's right. Mr. Xiao, what should we do about the issue of propaganda?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "It's easy. Tomorrow I will ask Kerry to help find the person in charge of the video network. Let's put the promotional video on their homepage in the most prominent position, and play it 24 hours a day. Then go to one of my friends, Jie Xi, he is the boss of Crown Publishing House, and asked him to help print thousands of posters and post them at the door of major bookstores across the country. After doing these things, the promotional expenses you brought will basically be used up."

Chu Heng smiled bitterly and said, "It's really not a flower."

That night, Xiao Yunhai called Kerry and Jesse to the house and told them about the matter. Naturally, there was no problem with them.

After dinner, everyone drank red wine while chatting on the grass of the manor.

Jessie complained: "Xiao, in the last few days, I've been annoyed by the four major European publishing houses~www.readwn.com~Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Is it about Harry Potter? "

Jesse shrugged and said, "What else can there be besides it. They hope to talk to you about publishing "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets."

Kerry next to him said: "The global sales of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" almost broke 100 million, so they made a lot of money. I still want the second one. How can there be such a cheap thing in the world. "

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Jesse, if they ask again, you can tell them that I will not deal with the sale of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets until the global screening of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" is over. problem."

Jesse smiled and said, "No problem."
