How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 584 Guest appearance in [The Wolf of Wall Street], reserved in the Financial Center

After listening to Zhang Nan's instructions, Old Luke became numb.

Good guy, really good guy.

but……

"Will Wanda Pictures agree?" Old Luke felt a little unsure about Zhang Nan's high-price reselling operation.

Zhang Nan said confidently: "Don't worry, it's all right, my price is even lower."

This is really true.

The original [Hypnosis Master] in space and time was invested by Wanda Pictures in Xu Zheng, and the investment was quite large.

The first sale was 1.3 million yuan.

Calculated, Zhang Nan only offered Wanda Pictures 60 million yuan for half of the project share, which was a discount of 5 million yuan.

And this is not a trick on Wanda Pictures, but it helps Wanda Pictures reduce its investment and corresponding losses by at least 60 million yuan. It can be regarded as helping a novice like Wanda Pictures who is new to the film and television industry.

"By the way, taking advantage of the share of this project, you can further talk to Wanda Pictures about the sales of distribution channels. The purpose is to slow down first and then go fast, and follow the market price bit by bit to make the long-term sales All the global distribution channels of Gong Distribution Company will be handed over to Wanda Pictures." Zhang Nan ordered again.

After all, it’s already 2013, and it’s only been more than six years since 2019.

As for Longbow Publishing Company's global distribution channel, it is a huge industry, just like a heavily stocked stock.

It is difficult to sell them all at once, and it can easily cause prices to fall and not sell at a good price.

However, taking advantage of the rising market and gradually selling out completely around 2018, we can maximize our profits.

"I still don't understand why you are so determined to sell the distribution channel and start a new one to build a terminal for a virtual movie-watching helmet. But... you are the boss, so you just have to know what you are doing." Old Luke In the end, she was still a little tangled and said to Zhang Nan sincerely.

……

The follow-up sale of shares of "Hypnosis Master" by Old Luke and Wanda Pictures went smoothly, and the accompanying transfer of global channel equity for Longbow Distribution also went smoothly.

Two waves like this came down.

The former allowed Zhang Nan to directly receive 60 million yuan, collect the production fees for "Hypnosis Master" in advance, and deposit them in the bank. With the interest alone, he could earn over 10,000 yuan a day while lying still. .

The latter is even more exaggerated. The transfer of less than 1% of Longbow Publishing Company's stock price directly caused an additional nine-digit change starting with a large digit to Zhang Nan's account.

……

2013 1 Month 15 Day.

The North American film market is still the same, with no new movies being released and lifeless.

[The Hobbit 1] is still being released in the movie market, but it is about to die. However, the cumulative global box office of the movie has exceeded 10 billion US dollars.

Warner, New Line and MGM are already urging director Peter Jackson to complete "The Hobbit 2".

Then "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" is in better shape than "The Hobbit 1", but its global box office total is less impressive.

It has not yet crossed the threshold of one billion U.S. dollars in global box office, but it has accumulated more than 900 million U.S. dollars in box office.

It is estimated that it will not be a problem to cross the threshold in the end, but it will definitely not reach the box office status of 1.1 to 200 million US dollars as Disney Pictures previously imagined.

Therefore, Disney Pictures, like Warner, New Line and MGM, began to urge Johnny Depp to prepare for [Pirates of the Caribbean 5].

After getting rid of Zhang Nan, I want to make a big profit by relying on the fame and popularity of the [Pirates of the Caribbean] series.

……

The mainland film market is completely different, it is full of vitality.

"Zodiac", released at the end of December, has grossed 8.85 million yuan in mainland box office.

This is 8.81 million yuan higher than the box office of The Original Time and Space, which was only 400 million yuan before it was finally released.

But that’s probably where it ends. King of Sunglasses' "The Grandmaster", which was postponed for a week due to threats, finally came out of the shadow of 10% in two weeks and plans to release it.

Tell the truth.

The Sunglasses King movie may not be fun to watch and boring.

However, the quality of the movie promotional videos of King of Sunglasses is absolutely superb and full of pretentiousness. It always makes people feel like they want to see how he is so pretentious.

Of course.

Just relying on the pretentious feeling given by this kind of movie promotion video cannot support much of the movie's box office.

Therefore, the total box office potential of the movie "The Grandmaster" is more than 200 million yuan, which is less than 300 million yuan.

This result is compared to the ten years of preparation for "The Grandmaster" and the investment of 1.8 million yuan in production fees.

It's definitely not worth it, and this movie is definitely going to be a big hit.

However, the style of Sunglasses King's filming has always been to lose money but gain the limelight. Those who can invest and dare to invest must have been mentally prepared for it.

Then on the same day that "The Grandmaster" was released, a new comedy-"Happy Camp: Happy Home" was released.

Tell the truth.

This film was only approved based on the popularity of the previous film "Thailand".

But even with the popularity of the comedy "囧囧", many people are not very optimistic about this "Happy Camp: Happy Home", and even cursed this "Happy Camp: Happy Home".

Without it.

This is not the first time that Happy Camp, a group, has made movies.

I also made a movie called "Hee Travels" before.

The movie did not lose money. The production cost was 2 to 3 million yuan, but it earned more than 20 million yuan at the box office.

Earned a net profit of more than 5 million yuan.

It's just that the food scenes were so ugly, and the quality of the movie was so bad that even the lead actor couldn't watch it, so he apologized publicly on the Internet.

Now there's another wave coming. I can't stand it, but I understand.

After all, Mango Terrace is all about being a disgusting person.

Then in February, Zhou Xingxing's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" and Huang Bo's collaboration with Lin Model "The 101st Proposal" will be released.

It can be said that the mainland film and television industry in early 2013 was very lively with a mix of really good movies, bad movies, and pretentious movies.

……

A certain floor in the high-rise building of the Shanghai World Financial Center that resembles a bottle opener.

Zhang Nan booked the venue today.

But it was not Zhang Nan who spent the money, but the crew of "The Wolf of Wall Street" starring Leonardo DiCaprio and directed by Martin Scorsese.

Moreover, the crew of "The Wolf of Wall Street" not only had to pay for a certain floor on the Shanghai World Financial Center Building, but also Zhang Nan, and the price was very generous.

That's 45 million US dollars to buy Zhang Nan three minutes of filming time.

This directly increased the investment in the film, which was originally planned to cost US$100 million.

Originally, DiCaprio thought it was a bit awkward to talk to Paramount about this matter.

Unexpectedly, when he opened his mouth, Paramount readily agreed.
