Chapter 822 We are different!(2/2)
After all, movie theaters are also the most practical.
Wherever they make money, that's where they are.
As long as it can be released in theaters, the long march will be the first step. Next, you don’t need to imagine that the filming schedule of Labyrinth will be quite brutal at the beginning.
Who would give such a rural-themed movie a high ranking?
Isn’t that using your own cinema for charity?
If you can have a 2% slice, you can already burn high incense. In fact, there is no such slice.
Looking at the treatment received by movies that have won previous awards in theaters, the general film schedule is hovering around 1%, and it is very difficult to reach 2%.
If we can get the same filming as ordinary popular movies, it will be a blessing for the theater chain. We need to thank our ancestors.
In recent years, although there are few movies that have received such good treatment, it is not absolutely impossible. Such movies often have to meet several conditions first. One is that the subject matter cannot be too unpopular.
If it's a genre that's popular with the public, not to mention the director, at least it shouldn't be too bad, and the most important thing is the cast.
For many so-called literary films, for various considerations, they generally do not choose actors who are already famous. Directors will prefer to use the so-called people who do not have the aura of big stars.
On the contrary, such actors are often not very popular and cannot drive box office. If there happens to be such a movie with a suitable subject matter, the actor happens to be well-known at the public level and his acting skills are recognized.
Well, congratulations.
With the blessing of awards, you can get equal treatment from theaters and give you a good film schedule.
Look at our labyrinth. We need awards, we need directors, we need themes, and we also have themes. The most important thing is... we have Boss Wu!
Boss Wu now not only has a certain degree of fame, he is also extremely popular and is a rare star-type movie actor.
The most important thing is that Wu Di's popularity is still on the rise!
If Xiao Qi hadn't reminded him, Wu Di would have even forgotten that not long ago, he had parachuted into his trumpet account to read the various messages from his enthusiastic fans.
Among fans, there are quite a few who want to buy tickets to support Maze!
Isn’t this support the box office?
If we had realized earlier that mazes can also be used to practice marketing, why would we have to let Brother Hai take over?
Maybe, you can rely on the maze to make a big difference, and even be more popular than the Meng's Orphans!
Brother Hai!
Can I get my money back?
Brother Hai: It’s impossible to refund the money. It’s already a kindness on my part if I don’t continue to ask for money from you. Why don’t you thank me quickly?
Wu Di: Where is Brother Hai?
Brother Hai, come out quickly!
Let's discuss the script and finish filming as soon as possible!
If we delay any longer, won't we lose more money?
Life is a journey with full ideals and cruel reality. For lucky people like Boss Wu, even if the career development goes smoothly, there will still be times of disappointment.
Take the matter of investing in a movie, for example. It was obvious that a cheaper and safer plan was right in front of him, but he just couldn't choose it.
But someone just wanted to pull him and make him jump into that big black hole-like pit in vain of his personal will.
What an injustice!
How miserable!
Inhumane!
In any case, no matter what work you do, you must always pay attention to first come, first served. Of course, the Meng's orphans are also the focus of publicity, but now, isn't the maze involved?
Others started filming earlier than you, have already won awards, and will be released soon. Even if you are the focus, you can only stand aside now.
Wu Di himself is unable to return to the capital now, and he is unable to do anything else. However, as the boss of the company, he is also very responsible for the maze.
He wrote down the key points of his work overnight, and also completed the execution plan. Yes, he used the time Brother Hai gave him to write the script.
What script?
Isn't that Brother Hai's errand?
Even if I help you, what good will it do to me?
Can I put my name on it?
Can I share a role?
Can I put a name in the title?
Excluding actors.
I can not!
Wu Di wouldn't even mention such a shameless request. It's like Maze. Being able to have a name is already a very breakthrough behavior.
That's because Wu Di's participation and contribution to the movie "Labyrinth" is relatively large. Of course, Xiao Qi is a new director, and the key point is that he is easier to bully.
Now, who is the director of Mengshi Orphans?
That’s Brother Hai!
Is it possible for a great director who is internationally famous, majestic and respectable to give up half of his credit rights to you?
He can't.
Not to mention this kind of movie where all the scripts are written by him, even if it is really a platter movie, as long as it has the signature of his brother Hai, no one else can follow and pick up the ready-made movie.
Since you can't share the fruits of victory, why are you still worrying so much?
It's better to let Brother Hai use his own brain. What's the point of delaying it for a few more days? Isn't this his wish?
For a movie like Labyrinth, the first step is to target the audience. It is unrealistic to attract all audiences of all ages and regions from the very beginning.
Regardless of the subject matter or the background, this is destined to be a niche film. Our investment is limited, and our appetite for box office is not that big. As long as we can make back our money, it will be fine.
