Chapter 508 Wants to target the [Zhao Orphan] of [Laughing Jianghu]

end of november.

Zhang Nan returned to the mainland from North America.

Without it.

Zhao Benshan's "Laughing in the Rivers and Lakes" and Jiang Wen's "Let the Bullets Fly" are waiting to be released, and the distribution rights of both films are in the hands of Longbow Publishing.

Zhang Nan has to go back and make arrangements for the release of the two movies.

Of course.

This is only the superficial reason, the more important reason is that [Jurassic World 2] will be released on Christmas Day, December 12.

If he dares to stay here.

Universal Pictures and Spielberg attach great importance to "Jurassic World 2" and are greedy for "Avatar 1", which has a global box office of more than [-] billion US dollars.

Zhang Nan will definitely use the dual means of favors and money to get Zhang Nan to do publicity.

Zhang Nan is not short of money, so he doesn't want to suffer this fate.
-
  Mainland.

Longbow Film and Television City.

In Zhang Nan's office, Zhao Benshan and Jiang Wen, who had been waiting at Longgong Film and Television City for a long time, were found by Zhang Nan.

"I won't say any unnecessary nonsense. I think the reason why I called you two here is to confirm the specific time of the movie's schedule."

Zhang Nan first opened the window to speak frankly, and then continued to introduce the situation: "We are all from the same family, so we must not fight each other. The release time of each other must be at least two weeks apart, and both must be released in December. , then one can only be released in early December and the other in mid-to-late December.

The current release schedule situation at the beginning of the month is like this. After the box office failure of "The Promise" and the mediocre box office of "Mei Lanfang", Director Chen Wuji was dumped by China Film Group, but he climbed up to the Magic City Film Group, and then reorganized "The Orphan of Zhao" has been released, starring Uncle Ge, Huang Jiaozhu, and Fan Haomen. It is scheduled to be released in early December, and the specific time should be December 12th.

Therefore, if it is scheduled to be released in early December, it will have to face "The Orphan of Zhao" directed by Chen Wuji Chen as its opponent.

Let me remind you.

Don’t think that Chen Wuji and Director Chen are not good enough after the successive failures of [Wuji] and [Mei Lanfang]. There are still [-] nails in the broken ship, and bean bags can be regarded as dry food.

Director Chen Wou-Ki and Chen just keep pulling his hips. This "The Orphan of Zhao" relied on more than [-] million U.S. dollars, a production fee of nearly [-] million yuan, and the experience of past commercial blockbusters, and the total box office was more than [-] million yuan. , also pinched by hand.

And both of you... are considered to be involved in commercial blockbusters for the first time, so you still lack experience, so you should consider it carefully. "

Listening to Zhang Nan's introduction, Zhao Benshan and Jiang Wen looked a little surprised and even smiled.

After all, the introduction to Chen Wuji was indeed a bit of a joke.

Being dumped by Huaying, and then climbing into the Magic City Film Group...these words are too vivid.

But after thoroughly listening to Zhang Nan's introduction to Chen Wuji and [Zhao Orphan], the relaxed look on their faces disappeared, and their expressions became condensed.

Because this is indeed the case. If Chen Wuji fails again and again, the box office of the movie will exceed [-] million. Compared with Chen Wuji, they are new and innovative characters.

The more the two of them thought about it, they started to rule out the idea of ​​releasing it at the beginning of the month.

Then Zhang Nan continued to introduce: "If it is to be released in the middle or late period, the news I can confirm at the moment is that [If You Are the One 12] will be released on December 22.

Then there is the Hollywood blockbuster [Jurassic World 2] starring me. It will be released on Christmas Day in North America on December 12th. I have a close relationship with [Transformers 25] here in the mainland, so it will probably be ten times slower. day, released in early January.

So if you choose to release it in mid-to-late December, you will have to face the movie Feng Xiaogang and I. "

Zhao Benshan: "..."    Jiang Wen: "..."

This is even scarier than when it was released at the beginning of the month!

At the beginning of the month, it was Chen Wuji, who was always very popular, with a box office of over [-] million but losing money, but in the middle and late period, it was the combination of Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Nan.

We just make a movie to make money at the box office. Why is the environment so bad?

"I choose the first month of the month." Zhao Benshan is indeed a man who plays bad cards all the time. He is older than Jiang Wen, but his brain is quick. He was the first to speak and made his choice.

Jiang Wen was stunned for a moment, but he could only sigh and said, "Uncle Zhao, I also want to choose the first month of the month."

"Xiao Jiang, uncle is old and can still make a few films. He will not be able to recover after a fall. You are young and there are so many unscrupulous investors. Let uncle take you to the Spring Festival Gala next time. .”

After Zhao Benshan's words, Jiang Wen was in a daze and couldn't hold it in, unable to say anything.

Zhang Nan saw that the order decided by the two people was similar to the original time and space, so he didn't let the atmosphere hesitate, so he decided directly and said: "Since you have agreed upon it, let's do it like this."

Hearing Zhang Nan's words, Zhao Benshan hurriedly spoke frankly again, and then saw that Jiang Wen was about to fall into a trance, and hurriedly left early.

Jiang Wen came over in a daze, looked at Zhao Benshan's back, and shouted to Zhang Nan: "Director Zhang, [Laughing Jianghu] you are just a publisher, the [Let the Bullets Fly] in my hand is yours It’s your own project that both invests and distributes! How can you turn your elbows outward?”

Zhang Nan was a little speechless when he heard this.

Is this my elbow turned outward?
  I was worried that the schedule would not match the original time and space, and "Let the Bullets Fly" would not reach the box office of the original time and space, so I pretended to be confused.

But this reason cannot be stated.

Zhang Nan could only explain: "I still don't understand this truth. It's said to be mid to late December. Isn't the 16th also mid to late December? It can be six days earlier for "If You Are the One 2" and "Jurassic" starring me. World 2】Ten days, commercial movies only have a box office period of a few days, the rest is garbage time, enough for you to "let the bullets fly"."

Jiang Wen blinked when he heard this and complimented: "It has to be you!"

……

12 month 1 day.

[Laughing Jianghu] is officially released.

In fact, Zhang Nan originally planned to release it according to the original time and space of "Laughing Rivers and Lakes". After all, the box office of "Laughing Rivers and Lakes" in the original time and space was 1.55 million yuan.

It doesn’t look like much, but compared to the 2 to [-] million of [Let the Bullets Fly], [Big Earthquake] and [If You Are the One [-]], it’s a notch behind.

But compared to the production fee of 1.55 to [-] million yuan for "Laughing Rivers and Lakes", the box office of [-] million yuan is too much.

However, Zhao Benshan strongly requested to raise the file for a few days, and set the time on December 12st, wanting to be away from Chen Wuji's [Zhao Orphan].

Faced with Zhao Benshan's request, Zhang Nan could only agree. After all, Zhao Benshan's request was really irresistible.

But the problem came immediately after filing.

[Laughing Jianghu] was put up for two days, and [Zhao's Orphan] was also put up for two days.

It was a waste of effort.

So at the premiere, Zhao Benshan looked very unhappy and felt that Chen Wuji was targeting him.
