How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 652: The mainland extension key is obtained - half a year
Mainland.

Inside the office of China Film Headquarters.

Han Sanpin called Kang Pei, who was about to take over his position, and met Zhang Nan with him.

It's like being the middleman and pulling the strings.

After all, Zhang Nan is his old friend who has worked with him for many years, and Kang Pei is about to succeed him and is an old friend who has worked with him for many years.

"Anan, early October is not such a good time!" Han Sanpin said with emotion after reading the documents Zhang Nan brought about [The Wandering Earth].

"I really want to go to the Spring Festival schedule, but it's a bit too much to extend the key after being on that schedule. It's better to find another schedule." Zhang Nan said modestly.

Han Sanpin nodded when he heard this, because it was indeed the case.

Although Zhang Nan has always been a mainlander, no one would ever regard Zhang Nan as a mainland filmmaker. In the eyes of everyone in the mainland film and television industry, Zhang Nan is a top celebrity born in Hollywood.

Of course.

Zhang Nan continued to shake his head.

Han Sanpin couldn't think of a reason, so he immediately reported the names of the remaining Hollywood giants.

"Universal? You've collaborated on two series with them."

"Disney? Your agent's brother-in-law has just become president, so the relationship should be in place."

Zhang Nan did not answer directly, but instead asked: "Mr. Han, do you know which company I went to for the global distribution of [The Wandering Earth]?"

If Zhang Nan insists on joining the Spring Festival slot, it doesn't mean that he can't get it, but if he wants to extend the key again, it will be too ugly.

Mr. Han, I just want to make it clear to you that what I told you that day was to make a big move. I was not joking, it was a real big move.

"Twentieth Century Fox, Sony Columbia, MGM, Warner?"

But there was a trembling silence.

Han Sanpin was excited and trembling because he was able to achieve such a brilliant achievement before leaving.

"I can help you apply for the extension key, and there is a high probability that it will be approved. After all, Anan, you have made a lot of contributions to the mainland film and television industry over the years, but it took you three months, isn't it a bit too much? It’s not that you ask for a long time, but it’s a waste of such a long time!” Han Sanpin knocked on the three-month extension of the secret code Zhang Nan had brought. Key text, reminded.

Zhang Nan shook his head.

Hearing that Zhang Nan was cheating here, Han Sanpin became a little interested.

"Paramount? The box office of [Transformers 3] should make it difficult for Paramount to reject you."

So the three month extension key, I'm not going to let it go to waste. "

"Anan, you can't just see your brother retiring and just play tricks on him!" Han Sanpin vaguely guessed something, but he wasn't sure and couldn't bear the excitement, so he joked pretending to be angry. .

But Zhang Nan didn't even nod.

Whether it was Han Sanpin or Kang Pei, after listening to Zhang Nan's speech, they couldn't help but feel their blood boiling in their hearts and their thighs and calves were trembling.

When Zhang Nan heard this, he stopped hiding it and said bluntly: "I have found them all, including the seven major Hollywood giants. Just relying on the channels of the seven major Hollywood giants, the global distribution channels of [The Wandering Earth] have basically been touched." I went to any place in the world that had a movie theater, and then I went to major movie theaters in Asia such as Neon, Korea, Xiangjiang, Wanwan, Southeast Asia, etc.

Zhang Nan still shook his head.

silence.

And Kang Pei thought that if [The Wandering Earth 1] was successful, during his term of office, there would definitely be [The Wandering Earth 2], or even [The Wandering Earth 3]. These are all achievements!

"Is three months enough? You are making such a big move, how about we do it for four months, no, five months, directly connected to the Spring Festival period?"

Han Sanpin is worthy of being a figure who has held power in China Film for nearly 1994 years since . I just thought that Zhang Nan's application for an extension key was a bit long and would it be wasted? Now that I know the specific situation , and immediately changed his tone. "..."

Zhang Nan was a little speechless.

But looking back at the Spring Festival releases in 2015, there were only "Macau Storm 2", "Heavenly Lion", "Wolf Totem", "Zhong Kui Conquers the Demons", "Where Are We Going, Dad 2"...these few movies , there is not even a movie with a box office of more than billion yuan.

The highest box office is still a bad movie like "Macau 2", which topped the box office with 9.72 million yuan, which is a bit disgusting.

"Wouldn't it be good?" Zhang Nan pretended to refuse.

At this time, Kang Pei, who had been silent on the side, spoke up at the right time, "Director Zhang, how long will [The Wandering Earth] be released worldwide?"

"Starting in half a year is a common practice in the international film market." Zhang Nan answered truthfully.

"Chinese films must always be in line with the world, in every sense of the word." Kang Pei fulfilled what he just foreshadowed.

Zhang Nan: "..."

No wonder you came to pick up Lao Han’s class!
The artistry of this speech is much higher than that of Lao Han who is blunt and can only rush in.

It's a pity that I wasn't very good at controlling the film market, so I only worked for four years before I ran away.

But it doesn’t matter. Based on your extremely artistic speech today, I will give you a slap in the face of your career in Huaying.

……

mid-September.

Longbow Film and Television City.

After leaving Huaying, Zhang Nan went to Europe again.

Based on French TV 4, which has cooperated with the "Hurricane Rescue" series, it has conquered the French film and television industry.

Relying on the connections he had in the Harry Potter series, he negotiated deals with the British film and television industry.

Europe~
After the failure of virtue, the only ones that can be counted are Britain and France.

Once Britain and France are dealt with, Europe is basically settled.

"The combined box office potential of the British and French film markets is about 2.6 million U.S. dollars. This will be verified in next year's [Star Wars: Episode 7]. If I add a little more Goldfinger here, it will reach million U.S. dollars." U.S. dollars should be no problem.”

"Then there is the German film market's 1.2 million US dollars, and the remaining small European countries have a box office potential of almost to million US dollars."

"Then the overall box office potential in Europe is about 900 million U.S. dollars. If you open it up a little bit and hit 1.2 billion U.S. dollars, it shouldn't be eye-catching."

"As for Asia...

Leaving aside the mainland, which is the largest market, the highest box office of Neon Film and Television is more than 300 million U.S. dollars, and the highest box office of Korean Film and Television is more than 100 million U.S. dollars. The markets in these two places are basically in my shape. No cheating You can almost reach this position, and if you open up a little more, it is estimated that the total box office will be 500 million US dollars, and it will not be a big problem.

The remaining small markets together can have a box office of more than 300 million U.S. dollars. The film market in Asia, excluding the mainland, can reach 800 million U.S. dollars, which should be stable. "

"Including the more than 900 million U.S. dollars in North America, with a little bit of manipulation, it can reach a box office potential of one billion U.S. dollars, and the mainland has a box office potential of more than 800 million U.S. dollars."

"These zero and zero total have a box office potential of 3.8 billion U.S. dollars. No matter how hard I put my efforts, it doesn't seem to be very difficult to achieve a box office of 4 billion U.S. dollars!"

After Zhang Nan completed the layout of the simultaneous global release of "The Wandering Earth", he silently calculated the maximum box office potential in movie theaters around the world.

I found that the gap between this number and his global box office goal of US$4 billion is not very big, only a gap of US$100-200 million.
