How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 838 Disney: Zhang, you need an overseas horseman for your helmet.

One week after the full release of "Eight Hundred", with the blessing of Longbow Films' VR viewing helmet, the box office potential has been almost redeemed.

The box office of Longbow Film and Television VR viewing helmet is 1.2 billion yuan, and the box office of traditional physical theaters is 430 million yuan.

But since the box office tickets on the helmet are half price.

Therefore, the actual box office of this version of "Eight Hundred" should be 2.63 billion yuan.

Compared with the box office of the original time and space of 31.1 billion yuan, it is about million yuan less.

And [Eight Hundred]'s box office of 1.2 billion yuan on the Longbow Film and Television VR viewing helmet, of which 10%, 120 million yuan, belongs to Zhang Nan's commission.

So in general, the box office performance of this wave of "Eight Hundred" has been suppressed.

It's just that as the first crab eater in the mainland film market after the lockdown was lifted, the Chinese film industry has indeed enjoyed blessings, and this cannot be changed.

……

Chinese film industry.

Mr. and Mrs. Wang, Feng Xiaogang and Guan Hu were shocked when they saw the box office gap between the VR viewing helmets of Longbow Films and traditional theaters.

no way.

The gap is too big.

One has a box office of 1.2 billion yuan, and the other is only 430 million yuan.

And if the half-price box office of the former is really counted, it is actually equivalent to a box office impact of 2.4 billion yuan.

"Brother, the most important thing is that there are no special film development funds, special office management fees, etc. for the movies shown on this Longbow Film and Television VR viewing helmet. Therefore, the box office revenue of this 1.2 billion yuan, We only need to throw away the 3.3% business tax and the 10% given to the platform. The rest is ours, and we can get 86.7% of the income.

Even if calculated on the basis of half-price movie tickets, compared with the original, this is 43.35% of the box office revenue. "Mr. Xiao Wang looked at the data in front of him with excitement and said to his brother, Mr. Wang.

Without it.

In the mainland film market in recent years, except for Zhang Nan, the highest box office share ratio that other films can get from traditional theater distribution channels has only fluctuated around the decimal point after 39.1%. It is impossible to break through 40%.

After all, in the early 2000s, producers could still rely on film sources to threaten distributors and channels.

But in recent years, mainland distributors and channels themselves have invested in production and film companies, and there is no shortage of film sources.

But now on the Longbow Film and Television VR viewing helmet, it is directly 43.35%, which is a difference of nearly 4% in box office revenue.

Four percent doesn't seem like much.

But after adding in the box office revenue of more than one billion, more than two billion, or more than three billion yuan, the revenue is more than 50 million, more than 100 million, or more than 150 million yuan.

You have to know that the total box office of many big-budget movies that hit the street might not be that much.

However, after hearing this, Mr. Wang added: "The key thing is not the box office share ratio of the Longbow Film and Television VR viewing helmet, but the Longbow Film and Television VR viewing helmet created by Director Zhang. It is the real-time revenue. Account."

Having said this, Mr. Wang's figure started to tremble a little.

Without it.

In the original mainland film market, even Chinese private film and television companies had a leading presence.

It takes at least three months to get the money back after the movie is released.

Some small film and television companies even take a year and a half to get money.

You must know that this is not a small amount of money, but a large sum of money measured in hundreds of millions. Even if it is placed in the bank and earns dead interest, the income is in the order of millions a year.

...for the box office success of [Eight Hundred].

In the eyes of mainland film and television people, it is the rise of a new distribution channel.

Therefore, subsequent gift films such as "Win the Championship", "Vanguard", "Jiang Ziya", and even "My Hometown and Me" have begun to discuss distribution cooperation with Longbow Film and Television.

However, from the perspective of non-Mainland film and television people, they are surprised by the recovery speed of the Mainland film market, which seems to be a bit too fast.

Because they are still clamoring for monitors in masks, and the film market is in a mess.

However, capital is driven by profits, so after seeing the rapid recovery of the mainland film market and Zhang Nan's Longbow Film and Television VR viewing helmet, it has shown its undoubted advantages.

and so--

Robert Watt, the current president of Disney Studios and Luke Sr.'s brother-in-law, came in person.

……

Inside Zhang Nan’s office at Longbow Film and Television City.

"Zhang, we have already prepared the script for [Pirates of the Caribbean 8]. There are no messy elements at all. It is the same as the original style. Whenever you are free, the crew can start work immediately."

After Robert Watt met Zhang Nan, he enthusiastically chatted with Zhang Nan about the "Pirates of the Caribbean 8" project.

He no longer seems to be following Universal Pictures and secretly resisting Zhang Nan.

"I can start working as soon as I go, and I don't even ask about my salary. If my salary is too high for you to accept, isn't it a waste of time?" Zhang Nan said jokingly.

Robert Watt directly said: "Zhang, as long as your salary does not exceed one billion U.S. dollars, even if it is 999 million U.S. dollars, I can make a decision immediately."

"Ok?"

Zhang Nan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this and said, "There seems to be something wrong with this price!"

Regarding his own worth, Zhang Nan still has some ideas. It's high, but it's definitely not as high as this.

"Zhang, I know that the operation system of Longbow Film and Television's VR viewing helmet is perfect, and it can almost operate independently in Europe and the United States.

But please believe me.

No matter how perfect the operation system is, there are still loopholes, and you would never imagine the disgusting methods of those European and American giants.

You need a local helper. "

Facing Zhang Nan's inquiry, Robert Watt didn't waste any words and directly made the purpose of his trip clear.

It’s not for anything else, it’s just for this emerging distribution channel of Longbow Film and Television’s VR viewing helmet.

to be frank.

What Robert Watt said is not wrong.

It is also because of this consideration that Zhang Nan has not distributed movies globally on the Longbow Film and Television VR viewing helmet.

Otherwise, [004], which was previously shelved and not released due to major global events, would be in Zhang Nan's hands.

Zhang Nan can directly throw [004] up, and then use his golden finger to drag it down, which will definitely fully demonstrate the distribution capabilities of Longbow Film and Television VR viewing helmets in the global film market.

But in that case, it would be directly digging into the roots of all Hollywood giants, and the follow-up would be very troublesome.
