"The Ninth District" is scheduled to be released on November 7, a period that is not too good but sufficient to perform.

In fact, even if the situation improves after the government rescues the market, the wealth that has been lost will not be compensated for this.

Many people always say the pain of life as a stone blocking their steps. As long as they step over, life will get better.

But before crossing, people will still find channels to please their not so relaxed mood.

Therefore, director Lehman's works are obviously a better choice.

With his current fame, the early publicity expenses of "The Ninth District" have just begun, and the attention it has attracted has already been very high.

This is appeal.

......

On the usual day, Lehman went to the Lions Gate and entered the office of President Jon Fehrame.

The Lions Gate's life is also not easy this year, and the financial owners behind them all have their own losses and have caught up.

However, even if it is not as rich as in previous years and is supported, it does not mean that it cannot be managed. If it really cannot be operated, it will go bankrupt. In those three months (8, 9, 10), the number of studios closed down was extremely large, and those who had no ability to make blood were collapsed.

Although the entertainment industry has not suffered a big storm and even the audience has more demand, not everyone can enjoy the industry dividends.

Unfortunately, both of you who met today are confident that you can get a share of profit.

It is really because during the internal preview of "The Ninth District", representatives of theaters expressed their intentions and gave a lot of screening support, such as the number of 3,550 paintings opened, and the scheduling share of no less than 37%.

This also aroused Lions Gate's investment and was the first time to guarantee the issuance (with regional issuers guaranteeing the box office to reach as much as possible, and then exchange for resource support), and conducted simultaneous screenings in 43 regions around the world. Although there are still some places that cannot be covered and are still waiting and watching, for Lions Gate, this is the best they can do within the scope.

After all, after the previous works, the upstream and downstream channel dealers on the interest chain can make a big deal.

There are many benefits of global simultaneous screenings. If you have ambitions and hope to sell your works, it is of course better if you have this strength.

In the office.

After arriving at Lehman, Jon warmly invited him and talked about the tricky things, which was also his purpose of making an appointment with the other party.

"We have always been friends and the cooperation is pleasant, so I won't go around with you." Jon took out a deal and continued: "There is at least US$65 million on the first weekend, which is the premise of guaranteeing cooperation. You know, those people only recognize money but not friendship. This part of the risk is borne by the Lions Gate, but accordingly, you need effective publicity to make this achievement monetization, or even better."

Lehman nodded, "I'm listening..."

"So, they will define the range according to the performance of the film's first week and invest the resources for the investment. If the standards are not met, those people will reduce the theater and ask us to compensate for the losses. If this happens, it will be troublesome to operate overseas. But as long as the film has enough money, I can also guarantee that it will try my best to tap the market potential."

In "The Ninth District", Lions Gate really put a heavy bet after thinking about it.

If successful, this is a big deal, and it will definitely make a big profit, which will make the quarterly financial report more beautiful and give investors confidence. It is only corresponding, global synchronization, which also means that overseas stakeholders cannot respond effectively based on proven achievements in the North American market, and they rarely take risks. This is also the reason why once the film fails, there will be serious losses.

Because even a studio like Warner has to bear part of the losses when the project revenue does not reach overseas investment.

After hearing Jon's request, Lehman shrugged and said that there was no problem.

His meaning is very clear. Both sides have the same purpose. They both want to make the cake of "The Ninth District" bigger, so the Lions Gate pays more and bears more, and the Fireflies have to take the same pace.

In fact, in Lehman's opinion, this is not something that is worth the nervousness.

The original version's promotional investment and production budget, once there is a special effect lens, it is filled with plastic smell, and it has dropped more than 180 million yuan worldwide (of which 120 million yuan in North America account for two-thirds of the total score). North America's first week of 65 million yuan, which means that the passing line of over 100 million yuan is a little higher. In fact, it is not a difficult situation.

Because overseas publishers are also taking risks to give the theater chains that should have been vacated to "Zone Ninth", then "Zone Ninth" should prove its value.

For example, China Film has introduced 10 films every year, and one of them is given to "The Ninth District". Its own value is very valuable, so its output must be worthy of this trust. Not to mention that it ranks in the top ten in North America, it cannot be too low, otherwise it will have no distribution value, and it is better to introduce works that have already achieved outstanding results.

Of course, "The Ninth District" will not enter at all, so I just give an example, because the content inside cannot pass, some shots are too violent and too bloody scene processing, which are rated as R-level films in North America, so it is conceivable that it is not possible.

Soon, after a friendly and friendly talks, both sides knew what they wanted and what the result was.

After Lehman returned, in addition to arranging Liam to reconnect with the Lions Gate, he also arranged more funding publicity.

Next, will there be an expected victory? Let's watch the movie?

......

In the afternoon, Colontan Voss sat in the conference room of Blue Butterfly Pictures with some anxiety.

He joined the company last month, and the original studio went bankrupt, so he could only make another way to make a living. Fortunately, with his years of distribution experience, he broke out from a bunch of people who wanted to be recruited.

I remember what boss (Liam) said that day, "Work hard and we will have a bright future, because our company has strong profit methods and generous bonuses."

To be honest, of course he knew that he was going to join the company, but how much salary he could get was, he could only say that he had some expectations.

Issuers have never been paid for their own wages. In fact, the film and television industry likes to bind to project revenue the most. If you have more profits, give more, and if you have less profits, give less. Of course, except for the lowest-level newcomers.

By the time the meeting began, there were only a dozen people sitting in the room, and more were at the contact points of each state, and they were directly contacted by email or phone. They were able to be here because they were responsible for the promotion of the surrounding areas of Los Angeles and were the company headquarters.

In fact, the promotion and distribution work of "The Ninth District" has a team of more than 300 people and personnel assisted by advertisers themselves. This is already the configuration of the larger personnel of Landie Pictures. After all, the company is not only responsible for one movie, but there are other things at hand.

Hard broadcasting, posters, interviews, press releases and the Internet, but the latter's propaganda team has a special department in charge, and the actions of the two do not overlap much.

The core of the conference is still how to impress the audience, arouse the audience's curiosity, and thus attract them to enter the theater.

The essence of promotion is not to create demand, but to discover demand and stimulate demand.

Children cannot go to the theater to watch R-rated movies, but it doesn’t matter, viewers over 16 years old are potential customers.

So to put it simply, how to transform potential customers into real customers is what they are going to do.

If it's not trouble, it's just tired.
