Chapter 279 The new generation of chicken soup master ‘Master Fang’(1/2)

 ........

Mid April.

Fang Ziheng put down the work at hand and returned to the Imperial Capital to participate in the event led by the Sixth Princess, "Beijing News", and Imperial TV Station.

Huayi, Guangxian, Bona, and Hengyu film and television companies co-organized the Chinese-language film symposium.

In addition to the four companies, Galloping Horse, Wanda Film and Television, and Xingmei Cinemas also joined in.

Tengxun Video, iQiyi, and Youku also wanted to participate. Guyong, the head of Youku, even offered to bear all the costs of the event.

As a result, as soon as the words were released, they were jointly rejected by Wang Changtian, Yu Dong, and Wanda's Song Ge.

The reason is very simple. The three major video platforms currently do not involve front-line film and television production, and they do not have channel theaters.

To put it bluntly, I look down on them. Video platforms are not equivalent to traditional film and television companies.

Wang Zhongjun became a good old man and said that he had been inviting them for two years, so let's forget it this time.

This founding meeting was held in a semi-public manner.

Different from the government-led annual conference, the theme is more flexible and harmonious. The main purpose is to let the public have an in-depth understanding of the general situation of Chinese-language films and understand the film and television companies' expectations for the market.

The meeting location is in the Conference Hall No. 3 of Diaoyutai Hotel.

April 12, 9 a.m.

Audi

Slowly driving into the Diaoyutai Hotel, Fang Ziheng got out of the car dressed in decent clothes.

There are quite a few people here now, no less than two to three hundred people at a glance. Except for the four major online media companies, Tengxun, NetEase, Sina, and Sohu, who are specially invited, they are all front-line workers in the film industry.

When Fang Ziheng walked into the hall, the four major online media's eyes lit up, and they instinctively carried their machines and came forward for interviews.

However, as soon as several reporters took a step forward, they were stopped by the staff of Imperial TV Station.

The four major media outlets arrested by the staff were scolded.

"What are you doing?"

"With such a lack of discernment, you think this is another place where you are allowed to report for entertainment and ask whatever you want?"

"Just stay patient and I will give you an interview opportunity later!

The staff member stopped the reporter with a straight face, showed a friendly smile to Fang Ziheng, stretched out his hand and said respectfully: "Director Fang, several leaders and heads of various film and television companies are here. They are in the lounge, I will take you there.

"

"Good work!"

Fang Ziheng held up his hands and followed the staff through the conference hall amid the astonishment of the four major media.

Damn...

When had they, the uncrowned kings, ever been treated like this!

You arrogant person, don't let me see you!

The four major media outlets' eyes were filled with fire, and they spat bitterly at the TV station staff.

It feels uncomfortable to be ignored, but anger is anger, and even with the courage of the four major media, they wouldn't dare to stab me here.

One of the organizers of today's meeting is the giant Buddha of "Xinbao".

"Xinbao"!

Today's founding conference is almost equivalent to a seminar between the two major media.

Internet media such as Tengxun, NetEase, Sina, and Sohu are all younger brothers to The New Paper.

More importantly, in addition to being broadcast normally through the Six Princesses and Imperial TV Station, this meeting will also be published in the "Xinbao" current affairs news.

You must know that current and important political news is published on page A of important news at home and abroad.

It is fundamentally different from the usual lively and chaotic entertainment section news on the Internet.

In the luxurious lounge.

The CEOs of major film and television companies including Huayi, Guangxian and Bona were all present.

Rongxinda, Tangren, Zhejiang Henglin, Zhujiang Film and Television and some medium-sized film and television companies are also here.

With a smile on his face, Fang Ziheng stepped forward to greet everyone one by one.

"Haha, Director Fang is here, I win!"

As soon as he saw him, Wang Zhongjun laughed boldly, took a few steps forward, put his arm around his shoulders, and said to Song Ge next to him: "Mr. Song, we have agreed that "1942" will not be less than 50% of the film schedule on the first day of release.

.”

"Director Fang, I thought you couldn't get away, but Director Lin is here today?" Brother Song opened his mouth and looked at Fang Ziheng with a wry smile.

"The filming of the literary drama of "The Great Wall" is almost done. Next, we enter the difficult war drama. I just came back to rest for two days to change my mind."

Fang Ziheng smiled and secretly scolded these guys for taking him as a bet when they had nothing to do but had enough to eat.

After joking for a while, a few people found a seat and sat down, chatting about some of the major events that will happen in the film and television industry in the next half year.

If someone comes in suddenly, they will notice a strange phenomenon.

On the left side of the lounge, seven film companies including Huayi, Hengyu, Guangxian, Bona, Wanda, Xingmei and Galloping Horse are gathered together.

On the right side of the lounge, Huace, Rong Xinda, Tang Ren, Dongyang Noon Sunshine, Xinbaoyuan, Xinli Media, Huanrui Century, Ciwen Media, and more than a dozen TV drama companies gathered together.

In the middle of the lounge, several middle-level cadres from Sixth Princess, Imperial TV Station, and Beijing News sat together.

The entire lounge is clearly divided into three groups of people, divided into three obscure circles.

Except for the fact that Fang Ziheng came in just now and everyone came up to say hello, the rest of the time they stayed in their own small circle and did not cross the line at all.

It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t.

There were too many people at the scene, and if one of them had the idea to move from the TV drama circle to the movie circle, not to mention attracting the attention of others, others would probably follow suit.

Let's just talk about Li Shaohong and Cai Yunong. The eyes of these two female CEOs lit up the moment Fang Ziheng came in.

Both of them wanted to take advantage of today's rare opportunity to have a good chat with Fang Ziheng.

It would be best if we can collaborate on a movie. Even if we can't achieve cooperation, we can still deepen the relationship between the two parties.

Reality doesn't give them a chance.

They are both CEOs of film and television companies, but the boundaries of their circles are still obvious, and the status of the two parties is not equal.

.........

Ten o'clock in the morning.

Vice Mayor Lin, who is in charge of culture in the imperial capital, arrived and the founding meeting officially began.

Fang Ziheng, Wang Zhongjun, Yu Dong, and Wang Changtian stepped onto the conference stage and sat on either side of the leaders.

The four of them represent the four largest private film companies in China and stand in the first echelon of the domestic film and television industry.

Starry Tan Dong.

Song Ge from Wanda Film and Television.

Fu Dong from Huace Film and Television.

These four people sit in the center of the first row of the audience, which is a level higher than other private film and television companies.

The top four have created the structure of today's film and television industry.

The three companies, Rongxinda, Tangren, and Dongyang Noonday, may have produced a few high-quality TV series, but in terms of company size, they are far less powerful than the previous eight companies.

The meeting was chaired by a deputy director of the Sixth Princess and a deputy editor-in-chief of the Beijing News.

After the opening remarks.

A deputy director of the Film Bureau spoke first and announced to the outside world the total box office results of the first quarter of the Chinese film market in 2012.

"According to the statistics agency within the China Film Group and the Film Bureau, the box office in the first quarter of the mainland has exceeded 4.25 billion yuan, setting a record high."

"The film market in the first quarter has obviously become more popular than last year since January. The Spring Festival and Valentine's Day schedules are becoming increasingly mature and commercial films, as well as literary and artistic films, are blooming at the same time, and have been widely recognized by the audience."

"However, it is worth noting that under the background of the new film policies between China and the United States, the strength of Hollywood blockbusters is increasing day by day. From February 9 to the end of March, Chinese-language films were short-listed for six consecutive weeks, missing the weekly championship.

Among the top four box-office movies in the first quarter, with the exception of "Spring Knife" which ranked second with a box office of 550 million, the other three were all Hollywood movies.

The total box office of the six Hollywood films released in the first quarter accounted for approximately 35.1% of the quarterly box office.

In addition to "Xiu Chun Knife" having a double success in word-of-mouth and box office.

"The Magician", "Love", and "The War" have a good reputation among the public, but unfortunately, none of these films have a box office of more than 200 million."

Following the introduction by Deputy Director Li of the Film Bureau, a large screen behind the stage slowly lit up.

First quarter of 2012.

The top ten box office hits in Mainland China appear on the big screen.

The first place, "Mission: Impossible 4" (imported), has a total box office of 627 million.

The second place "Xiu Chun Knife" has a total box office of 550 million.

The third place "Journey to the Center of the Earth 2" (imported) has a total box office of 326 million.

The fourth place "Alien Battlefield" (imported) has a total box office of 206 million.
