Chapter 496: Crooked Ways
Premiere scene.
Yuan Quan was welcoming guests from all walks of life with a cheerful face. Rong Guang was hiding in the background, discussing the latest situation with Liu Rongrong and Wang Xiaoxi.
Liu Rongrong reported: "Guang Shao, the ticket donation event was successfully completed. According to your request, various companies gave away a total of 1 million movie tickets..."
This time, Rong Guang simply used all the crooked tricks. He would definitely look down on things like buying box offices. The technical content was too low, and Mr. Guang couldn't afford to lose that person! But can it be exchanged for free tickets?
Since we have so many companies in our hands, we can definitely give away tickets for promotional activities? Isn’t it just tens of millions? No matter what, let’s give away 1 million tickets generously first!
After Liu Rongrong finished her report, Wang Xiaoxi continued: "Director Rong, each theater chain has signed incentive clauses. And we have already paid the first payment."
"Uh-huh."
When it comes to specific issuance, there are still many ways to do it.
If you find it troublesome, of course you can leave it all to the distribution company, and that's normal operation. But if you want to get the support of major theater chains, you'll need some off-the-shelf tricks.
For example, local publicity and distribution expenses need to be paid to the advertising company determined by the local theater chain? Why is there such a formulation? You should all understand it, right?
The other thing is rebates. From the fixed share ratio, a few points are given as rebates to the theaters.
However, under normal circumstances, it is best not to directly rebate, which will break the rules of the world. Otherwise, it will become vicious competition in the future, with more and more rebates, and all the money will be earned by the theater chain.
So the format also needs to be changed. Rongguang adopts incentive clauses - the more movie tickets sold, the more rewards will be given to the theater chain!
Hearing that everything else had been arranged, Rong Guang breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled and said: "I have already made an agreement with Third Master and Yu Dong, and they have given me the highest filming rate. I guarantee that there will be no problem with a one-month extension. It is best to be able to
Postponed for two months. Damn it! For this movie, brother, I gave away all the favors I had accumulated in the past."
This year's heavyweight films are once again concentrated towards the end of the year. In addition to Li An's "Lust, Caution", there are also two blockbuster films "Report" and "Assembly".
"Assembly" is Feng Xiaogang's transformation work. Starting from this film, he slowly gave up Feng's comedy and pursued ideological connotation?
However, such a military theme was not taken seriously by director Peter Chan. Isn't it the main theme of political propaganda films? How could any audience like to watch those? Therefore, Peter Chan was not worried at all, and it didn't even matter if it was in the same schedule.
Of course, the cast of "The Legend" is also extremely luxurious. The three leading actors are Li Lianlian, Takeshi Kaneshiro and Liu Dehua. Especially Li Lianlian, the salary for this film is said to have reached 100 million! The total investment of the film is as high as 40 million US dollars.
, has reached more than 300 million soft sister coins. No wonder Chen Kexin is so confident.
It can be seen that Rong Guang has no confidence to compete with those three films. After all, this is a "scientific and educational film", which is far inferior in terms of viewing and entertainment.
Finally, just move to the summer schedule!
However, in the summer season, there is also a popular Hollywood blockbuster - "Transformers". This movie also has the Buddha blocking the Buddha and the God blocking the God. How many people's childhood memories have been carried by this movie?
Fortunately, the release period of "Transformers" was coming to an end. So Rong Guang used all his connections to seize a lot of film schedules.
Since you don’t want to harm other domestic films, let’s let Hollywood films suffer some losses!
However, after hearing Rong Guang's words, Wang Xiaoxi couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Although Wang Xiaoxi is working for Rong Guang, in her mind, she still looks down on Rong Guang, a weak soul: "Director Rong Da, I finally understand, this is how you succeeded? Hum?
"
Faced with Wang Xiaoxi's ridicule, Rong Guang didn't take it seriously at all: "What's wrong? Sister Xixi, are you jealous? Well, now you are useless, you can pack your package and go back to the space agency. Haha!"
Wang Xiaoxi was so angry that she trembled: "Rongguang, it's a shame that I ran around here and there and did so many things for you!"
"Hehehe." Rong Guang laughed and continued to tease the girl, "If you don't do something, I won't want you. Now that you've done it, of course you have to burn the bridge across the river! Hahaha!"
"you……"
Wang Xiaoxi was trembling with anger. Hell was empty and the devil was in front of him!
Liu Rongrong quickly pulled Wang Xiaoxi away laughing and joking. She was already very familiar with the temper of a certain bald and evil boy, and this guy was particularly mean-mouthed.
Rong Guang wiped his face with his hands and then walked into the premiere venue.
Although everything that should be prepared has been prepared, in the end it depends on the audience's response. Inside, Rong Guang is still quite nervous...
…
The cinema slowly became quiet and the movie started to show:
On a winding mountain road, a long-distance bus broke down on the side of the road.
Seeing that it was getting late, these travelers could only rest at a nearby farmhouse. They had to wait until tomorrow morning to transfer to a new bus before continuing their journey. However, the farmhouse where they stayed was too small and there were too many tourists, so
Most people started chatting and stayed up late, preparing to spend the night here.
Encountering such a small accident, a group of strangers quickly became familiar with each other. In the self-introduction, some of them were returning to their hometowns to visit relatives, some were veterans, some were adventure travelers, some were nurses... and there was also an engineer who came with a new design
The drone was used to conduct experiments in the mountains.
At the beginning of the film, the relationship between the characters is quickly explained clearly. With such directing skills, Rong Guang has already mastered it. There is almost no wasted shot, and the shooting is very smooth and clean.
However, the guests and audiences in the cinema did not come to see this. Just looking at the name of this film - "Earthquake Rescue", they must have come to see the earthquake special effects! Then came the rescue activities between life and death.
A breathless feeling of tension and oppression...
However, as soon as the camera turned, the night passed peacefully? Gone? Gone? Gone?
Many people cursed in their hearts, why are you showing us this? Where is the promised earthquake? We all took off our pants!
Video continues:
Early the next morning, the transfer bus arrived, and the driver greeted all the passengers to get on the bus. Their destination was Pingcheng.
At this time, as the sun rises, the big city of Pingcheng begins to show its vitality.
Busy breakfast stalls, congested traffic and people on the road, old ladies exercising in the park, old men chatting on the roadside, workers rushing to work, students skipping to school...
Chapter completed!
