The Chinese film market has finally reached its peak and the hottest business era.

This era was started by Lao Mouzi, carried forward by Fang Ziheng, and further expanded by famous directors.

Directors one after another have turned the world around with one commercial film after another, paving a bright road for Chinese-language films in terms of market, film themes, shooting techniques, and professional talents.

October 7th.

On Monday, the new week's movie data was released.

"The Founding of the Army" and "The Dragon King of the City of Gods", with their unrivaled performance, ranked among the top two at the box office during the National Day holiday.

First place: "The Founding of an Army", which earned 330 million in four days in its first weekend.

In the second week, there was an internal booking bonus, and the box office trend continued to decline, with a box office of 510 million in seven days.

The movie was released for ten days, with a total box office of 840 million, ranking first at the box office for two consecutive weeks.

As a main theme movie, "The Founding of an Army" did not break the record of "The Great Wall", but in the minds of many filmmakers, it has been recognized as the most successful commercial movie with a main theme.

"The Dragon King of Gods" ranked second. It was released for 8 days. This week's weekly box office was 400 million, which was 110 million less than "The Founding of the Army" which was booked internally.

Including 91 million on the first day and 87.5 million on the second day, the total box office of "The Dragon King" also reached 578.5 million.

With a box office of nearly RMB 580 million in eight days, Huayi's stock price once again experienced a new increase, breaking through RMB 65 billion.

Wang Zhongjun seemed so happy that he called Fang Ziheng twice to call him brother-in-law and thank him for refining the script for the movie.

On the contrary, Fang Ziheng is more calm. In his opinion, the 10-day performance of "The Founding of an Army" with 840 million yuan can only be considered average.

If the government hadn't chartered the venue, there's a question mark as to whether it could have exceeded 800 million in 10 days. There's really nothing to show off.

Of course!

He thinks so himself, but others don't think so. They think he is modest and reserved, and they think more highly of him.

...........

October 15th.

The Propaganda Department held an expanded film meeting in the imperial capital.

In the large staircase conference room on the 12th floor of the Film Bureau, hundreds of people gathered to discuss the next direction of Chinese-language films.

Fang Ziheng was sitting on the podium, staring at the CEOs of film and television companies in the first row.

He will be confused and caught off guard.

I had previously received an invitation to invite him to attend the meeting, but I was not told that he would be put on the podium.

Not to mention, he will be asked to speak for the third time later!

When he entered the venue just now, Director Han told him that it was a temporary proposal from the head of the Propaganda Department, and he was speaking as the only private enterprise representative in the film and television industry.

Fang Ziheng expressed that he was a little panicked and was not ready to speak at all.

In order not to embarrass himself, he could only use his time to listen to other people's speeches while quickly making drafts in his mind.

Off stage.

Wang Zhongjun, Yu Dong, Wang Changtian, Song Ge, Zhang Qiang, Chen Wu, Fu Meicheng from Huace, and Jia Yueting from LeTV were sitting together.

Everyone sat upright and braced themselves to listen to the lecture.

Wang Zhongjun glanced at Fang Ziheng a few times and sighed secretly in his heart.

At film conferences at the beginning of the year, private enterprises usually have two people speaking, one is Fang Ziheng, and the other is Wang Zhongjun.

This time there is only Fang Ziheng, what does that mean?

This shows that in the hearts of the superiors, Fang Ziheng's status is higher than before, and in the eyes of the competent authorities, Hengyu Media is more popular with the superiors than Huayi.

Hua Yi was really outclassed by Hengyu!

"Dear leaders and colleagues in the film industry, it has always been the goal of our filmmakers to promote dialogue and cooperation in the global film industry, build a core city for the Asian film industry, and allow domestic films with Chinese cultural characteristics to go abroad."

"Based on real-time data analysis and the current status of the globalized film industry, China has the greatest development potential, a massive source of creativity, and the world's largest ticket sales. These two prerequisites form an important cornerstone for the rise of Chinese-language films.

With the changes in the global economic map and the opening of geopolitical control, China has become the focus of the world's attention. The movie holy land of Hollywood in North America is no longer mysterious. More and more film talents are gathering in our country.

country.

At the same time, the film market will continue to open to the outside world.

In the next few years, the number of imported films will increase. How to maintain the original market share while frequently exporting Chinese film culture overseas is the biggest responsibility of us filmmakers in the future.

Of course, don’t be afraid!

Chinese films have ushered in a prosperous era, and I firmly believe that with the steady development of the economy, this prosperous era will only get better and better, and last forever!"

On the rostrum, China Film Director Han was the first to speak, with a determined look on his face, as if he were on the battlefield.

Everyone in the audience had different expressions. Some were taking notes with serious faces, while some had bright eyes that were blown away by Han Dong's chicken soup.

After Director Han finished speaking, a leader from the Propaganda Department in charge of film and television culture spoke.

Leaders are unprecedentedly optimistic about the prospects of Chinese films, advocating for the globalization of domestic films and focusing on co-producing Chinese-language blockbusters.

Use big casts and big productions to break into the fortress-like Hollywood and North American markets.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience looked at Fang Ziheng.

Breaking open the North American market and allowing foreigners to spend money to buy tickets to watch Chinese-language movies. Currently, it seems that only Fang Ziheng has done it and done it best.

The others are almost meaningless!

Everyone was deep in thought, secretly thinking about the leader's speech. They wondered if he was trying to give Fang Ziheng some credit and name him for his position as the helmsman of the big ship of the movie.

All I can say is that everyone really thinks too much.

How could the leadership structure be so narrow? His speech was just to inspire everyone's creativity and struggle.

I want to give you some reassurance and tell you in a subtle way that the government will continue to support domestic films and promote Chinese film and television culture.

As the deputy leader of the Propaganda Department finished his speech, the host of the meeting, Kang Pei, took the microphone, flicked it twice, and spoke with a bit of solemnity.

"Now, let us invite Director of the Film Association, Chairman of Hengyu Media, and famous director Fang Ziheng to speak. Welcome Director Fang!"

Bang bang bang...

Bang bang bang...

Everyone in the audience immediately became excited and burst into warm applause.

After listening to the leader's chicken soup, everyone finally waited for the main meal.

Everyone knows that in terms of understanding of the film market, among the hundreds of people present, Fang Ziheng, the best-selling director, must be the best.

He is the only one who has truly perfected the commercial phone business!

The applause lasted for a long time.

All eyes turned to Fang Ziheng, looking forward to his speech.

Facing everyone's gaze, Fang Ziheng stood up suddenly, adjusting the height of the microphone while looking around the entire conference hall.

A few seconds later.

A confident voice sounded.

"Dear leaders and colleagues!"

"As we enter 2013, the domestic film market has already embarked on a fast track. The bull market for movies has arrived, and the golden age has arrived!"

“Since the first half of 2011, although the share of Hollywood’s imported blockbusters has been increasing year by year, these imported films have experienced negative growth in their proportion of the total annual box office in the mainland for three consecutive years.

Today, we can all brag without any hesitation that in the local market, we have definitely defeated Hollywood."

His words of encouragement made everyone in the conference hall smile.

Defeating Hollywood is a big event. It is the result of the joint efforts of hundreds of people present and the efforts of filmmakers across the industry.

If the annual total box office ratio in the past three years is published in a table, it can definitely enhance the confidence of ordinary people and movie audiences in domestic films.

then.

Fang Ziheng changed the topic and said with a bit more emphasis: "The domestic film industry is currently experiencing the highest growth rate in the world. In at least one year, the total amount of the Chinese film market will surpass the North American market and become the world's largest film market."

warehouse market.

The world’s largest box office!

It is not only a holy place for the well-being of our filmmakers, but also a home that we filmmakers need to protect!

Currently, global film technology is increasingly innovative!

How to maintain our homeland while integrating with the world, and how to create a Chinese film brand to compete with the Hollywood film brand is our next most difficult task!"

“Cultural export cannot be achieved overnight, nor can it be driven by just a few Chinese-language films that are global hits.

Not only does it need the backing of a strong country, but it also requires the unremitting efforts of each filmmaker and the support of a large number of professional talents. Only after years of hard work can we succeed!"

"Therefore, it is imperative to establish our country's industrialized film system and build our country's film dream factory!"
