Chapter 964 Details
China Film can introduce 15 American movies every year, only a few, not many. To be honest, this number is not enough to allocate to 5 majors, not to mention Disney's family acacia animation is often the focus of being introduced.
Of course, from the standpoint of China Film, sometimes it cannot only focus on profits, but also strictly review what ideology it wants to spread by introducing films. If it is just entertainment, of course there is no problem. I am afraid that some bad things are mixed in the entertainment.
So after hearing Lehman's request, Director Han didn't think long, "We agree with the priority of schedule, but--" Director Han emphasized the latter word.
Lehman also knew that conditions had always had room for negotiation, so he paid silence to Director Han's reply.
As expected, Director Han was not confused about the third point, and the restrictions he proposed were all around the first two points.
In his opinion, there is no quota for the introduction indicators - "Of course, this does not mean that we are unwilling to introduce your movies, but that your opportunities should compete on the same level as other manufacturers." After the two words, Director Han changed his mind and said that he could give priority to sending a film purchase review team to connect with the top film projects sold by Mann Media.
Lehman suddenly understood what he meant. This means that the initiative in the introduction must be firmly controlled by China Film, but because China Film treats various overseas manufacturers differently, such as Colombia's friendly operations in China, China Film's contribution to favorable benefits is not low. Now, Mann Media can also enjoy this hidden benefits instead of being publicly put on paper.
In other words, if Mann Media can continue to maintain the strategy of cooperation and reciprocity, China Film will not disappoint Lehman. This is probably what it means.
Lehman understood.
Then there is the matter of China Film Cooperating with China's distribution in the United States. Director Han also has his own little thoughts on this. You should know that the movie itself is also a window for the international community and can shape the regional image. He hopes that Mann Media can also cooperate with China Film's supported films in the United States to distribute. In this regard, Colombia is also doing it, but if there is more studio, will there be more publicity power?
After talking one by one, Lehman was also very frank, "I have no problem here, Mr. Han."
Although the restrictions in these details make the previous proposals less domineering than Mann Media, Lehmann's own requirements are not high. All that remains is to use actions to show that his attitude can replace Colombia and become the first partner. With restrictions, it is better to be sincere than an vague official accent. Anyway, the layout of the Asian region can already gain a foothold.
Finally, the exchange group quickly signed a cooperation agreement for Pacific Rim.
In addition to the specific rules of joint filming, in terms of funds, China Film and Television paid 20 million yuan, Burner and Huayi each paid 15 million US dollars. In addition, during the scheduled promotion, they guaranteed the best treatment of theater resources and publicity.
Both parties also confirmed that during the filming process, China Film has the right to censor the censorship and stop any conscious form of art that deviates from the creative concept must be affirmed by China Film before it can be carried out;
After the dispatched shooting team enters the crew, the management staff of China Film and Television will be used as the coordination contact person;
The scenes and sections required for framing are coordinated by China Film;
Finished film guarantee and accident insurance, accept China Film Supervision;
The initial schedule is October. Any accidents that deviate from the schedule must be reported in a timely manner. Otherwise, the adjustment will be inconvenient and China will be irresponsible;
Perhaps because of the first and first special effects blockbusters, they have to enjoy the domestic film sharing model. Director Han was extremely cautious and was ensuring that the project would not make red line mistakes in all aspects - he was afraid that someone would be cerebral palsy, had bad intentions, and would do good things into bad things, which would make them slutty.
But from the results, the signing of the contract and the right to proactively try and error and stop the contract were all happy.
For China Film, this is a breakthrough in zero co-production blockbusters. Taking this opportunity may also attract manufacturers from other regions to actively contact China Film, which will be of great help to their international market influence, and can also openly steal the production experience of Hollywood.
For Mann Media, under this system, their interests in China have been well guaranteed. In the future, the movie box office market in the mainland market has been rising steadily. They can enjoy only a lot of dividends, and they can fully mobilize the channel power of Chinese film and television companies to pave the way for their international distribution, especially in Asia.
For Bernard and Huayi, co-production is also of great benefit. Even if they are not in terms of profit sharing, their proportion is not high. In terms of copyright, China mainly focuses on China Film and has little relationship with them. It reflects support policies, but it is enough to satisfy them. It is thinking about how to operate and increase additional benefits or influence.
As for how to enter the shooting stage smoothly, the relevant personnel are already preparing. As the director, DGN is even more busy in the hotel.
"How is it, are you still adapting?"
In the hotel, Lehman found the gyro.
"Fortunately, I went out for a walk the day before yesterday and found that I had a different impression from my previous one." Gyro shook his head.
“What’s the difference?”
"The market is huge, and the people's mental outlook is very good, which is completely different from news reports."
"Those reporters like to attract attention, but you don't understand. Just look at them. By the way, do you have specific ideas about shooting?"
But the gyro asked, "You have already agreed?"
"Yes, there are people ready over there, and the scenery is ready, the clothes, and props will be prepared quickly, and then the shooting is taken. What do you think?"
"I'll just be responsible for filming," said Grossou, immediately picked up his image shaping paper for monsters and said. It seemed that his interest in monsters was greater than that of actors.
"However, I found that the audience here is very enthusiastic about watching movies, and there are too many people queuing up to buy tickets. I heard from the people accompanying me that this is still common."
“Of course, the main audience area of this project is included here.”
In Pacific Rim, the studio of Gyro participated in the box office sharing. He himself liked this kind of subject and still seemed very energetic.
As for the enthusiasm for watching movies, Lehman recalled some of the things the political teacher said when he was in school, that is, the contradiction between the masses’ material and cultural needs. After a change, the more idle money you have, the more willing you to meet your spiritual needs and enjoyment. This is also the key point of the explosion of many luxury brands, high-consumption markets and entertainment markets.
