Buying a box office is a science, how can we not be discovered?

After all, the entire industry is looking at "Painted Skin", and they also hope that Yuehua can defeat "Kung Fu King" head-on...

In recent years, the Huang brothers have been very unpopular!

Relying on the trump card Ma Xiaokang in hand, he poached people everywhere...

Let me put it this way, except for Li Lianhua, all the artists of Dongyang Media are not trained by themselves.

Even the lotus is brought up by Sister Hua!

This is very disgusting. For example, the Oriental Pearl of Yangcheng created the "Young" series, and "The Young Emperor" also belongs to it. Chao Ge was originally an actor under the Oriental Pearl, and then he was wanted to enter Dongyang Media;

Brother Xun, Chen Kun, not to mention, Li Xiaowan launched it and was also abducted by Dongyang Media;

Including Yao Dazui, the leader…

If you have the ability, you should cultivate yourself. What's the matter with picking peaches?

Public enemy in the industry!

Yuehua's strong rise has given many people hope, so they are very concerned about "Painted Skin"...

How to buy a box office in this case?

Fortunately, Yuehua has a ticketing spot!

I made a move on the pre-sale and bought an 8 million yuan first-day box office...

Therefore, "Painted Skin" can only win 31 million on the first day. Otherwise, with the appeal of a few actors alone, it will be Friday again, so how could it be such a high box office?

Anyway, external publicity, 31 million yuan on the first day, continuing the "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" series of high-quality productions.

Now all the pressure is given to "Kung Fu King"...

...

"Pulp Novel" is not the kind of special effects production. Even so, the actor's pay only accounts for 45% of the total expenditure...

The shooting location was chosen for Quebec. The reason is very simple. Quebec is probably the city with the best tax refund in the world!

It has a policy that film projects developed by independent production companies, whether short films or feature films, can be applied for full shooting funds from public institutions. Note that the full amount is required!

Since its inception, "Pulp Novel" has been based on the most traditional Hollywood method and studio model.

The studio system can be said to be a practice for Hollywood companies. Whenever a high-investment film is launched, the production company will set up corresponding studios to coordinate the film's funds, preparations, personnel, shooting, advertising, sponsorship, and surrounding areas. Some studios that sell movies often exist for several years or even more than ten years.

Of course, the establishment of a studio in "Pulp Novel" is not only because it follows the convention, but more importantly, it wants to apply for policy support from Quebec...

Coincidentally, Mike McDavoy is a Canadian who understands all the tax refund processes in Canada.

Before the filming of the movie officially started, Mike introduced a professional tax refund broker, Brown.

"It's like this, the Quebec City Government will only support $5 million at most, plus a 20% tax refund, which should be the total amount of $11 million..."

Brown calculated the total amount.

Zhang Junsheng was a little confused. Damn, 40 million minus 11 million, 29 million...

It directly saves 25% of production costs.

This is too exaggerated!

No, what is Canada doing this for?

Do good deeds without leaving a name? Benefit all mankind?

Quebec Province has a total of 8 million people, and the total box office generated in a year is less than 200 million Canadian dollars.

In other words, most of these film shooting funds invested by the state have been wasted from a commercial perspective and have no hope of recycling through normal channels.

Since direct benefits cannot be generated, what is the purpose of the government's efforts to devote all its efforts to the film industry?

Mike asked, “…can you get the money now?”

"…I can sell it to Bombardier, but, they will only offer $9 million at most!"

"…We only have 9 million, and it's yours to talk about how much we can do!"

"OK, I will work hard!"

When Brown left, Zhang Junsheng couldn't help but feel the doubts in his heart. He really didn't understand what the benefits of Canada's support for film production would be for him?

"Quebec is the French-speaking region! Let's put it this way, they have always wanted to be independent, their support for filmmaking and commercial interests are completely unrelated, and they are completely for the purpose of protecting local culture!"

"As early as the early 1950s, Quebec people realized that without the intervention and support of the state and relying solely on pure commercial competition, Quebec films would likely be completely crushed in a short period of time, and the Quebec culture with a strong national color and special thinking mode may disappear. It is driven by this sense of crisis that Quebec became the most tenacious region of "national film protectionism" in the entire North American. The government believes that only nationalized industrial policies can retain a spark for local film culture under the surging commercial invasion of Hollywood."

"...But our movie has nothing to do with Quebec!" The son of the plane growing under the red flag still couldn't get the focus...

"Who said there was no? The studio "Pulp Novel" was built in Quebec!"

“…”

Tsk, capitalist wool...

OK, I'm not taking advantage of me anyway, I'll do whatever I want...

...

Hangzhou*zhou, hotel.

After a day of publicity, several people were exhausted.

Brother Xun patted Zhou Xing on the shoulder, and the latter quickly stood up.

"Come with me!"

Brother Xun winked, Zhou Xing looked around, and there was a silence...

Zhou Xing was a little bitter. Is it my turn to be the legendary unspoken rule?

"smoke?"

"oh…"

After taking the cigarette handed over by Brother Xun, Zhou Xing touched it for a long time but couldn't find the fire.

He doesn't smoke the fire, so where does the cigarette come from...

Brother Xun gave him a helpless look, handed over the lighter, and said, "Ask you something."

“You said…”

"Your company wants to set up a personal studio for you? Is this true?"

"…some."

It turns out that I am not going to be unspoken rules, so why are I a little disappointed?

"Tell me specifically!"

"...It's the company's capital injection, and then my previous brokerage team will join me. I will find a few more trustworthy people. Anyway, it's similar to self-employed. In the future, I will take on roles more freely and don't have to share the money I earn. Every year, the company will symbolically collect some shares and dividends..."

“…What if I can’t get the show?”

"No!"

Zhou Xing answered very simply. Brother Xun looked at him strangely, and he quickly explained: "Mr. Zhang gave each of us a right, and he would support the projects we like!"

"…Really? What if I lose money?"

"If you lose, you lose. Let's lose together!"

"Tell me clearly!"

"It's just to bear the profit and loss. Generally, we make a decision on projects below 10 million. If we go up 10 million, we have to report them to him and discuss them together. No matter how much the money is, we will invest 20% of our private investment!"

"If you lose money, then you will lose money together. If you make money, you will make money together!"
