China Entertainment: Great directors start by winning actresses

Chapter 14 Postponing the schedule
When the subtitles fell and the lights came on again, many people here felt like they were waking up from a dream.

My heart was beating constantly, and I felt an urge to run.

After a brief silence, bursts of applause rang out in the auditorium.

The people behind the scenes who first joined the crew were also very excited to watch the movie in front of them.

Whether it is a good movie or not, these people behind the scenes can basically guess it.

As a film practitioner, you are naturally very concerned about the films you make.

However, this industry always has few good films and many bad films.

Slowly I lost hope.

I never thought that they would be able to participate in the production of such a wonderful movie in their lifetime.

Although "Run Lola Run" is not a mainstream commercial movie, it is definitely exciting, and it should not be a problem at the box office.

David Smith, Columbia's Chinese partner, excitedly shook Su Zhe's hand and claimed that he had created a new era.

This movie is the opposite of the Hollywood routine.

It does not adhere to the three-stage infrastructure of Haolaiwu.

A movie goes from the birth of an idea to the final film.

This process requires too many steps, and any deviation in any aspect may cause the final result of the film to completely subvert the creator's vision.

These investors have basically seen Su Zhe's movie storyboards.

But they never expected Su Zhe to film this story perfectly.

As long as about seven or eight floors were filmed, they believed the story would be a hit.

They didn't expect Su Zhe to shoot it so perfectly, even better than the scene they imagined in their minds.

The degree of completion of a movie not only includes whether a movie shows the story connotation that the script wants to express.

It also includes various factors such as the film’s special effects, quality, editing, and soundtrack quality.

After watching this movie, compare the script in your memory.

David Smith can say without hesitation that the movie "Run Lola Run" is definitely a highly completed movie.

This time I thought I had been caught in a trap where I would lose money and make a profit.

Unexpectedly, it was a gold ingot.

If "Run Lola Run" was a commercial film, David Smith can be sure that this movie would definitely do perfect at the box office.

However, even if it is not a commercial film and the subject matter is somewhat non-mainstream, as long as you have watched the movie, you will definitely be completely interested in the whole story.

Most viewers will also give it very positive reviews.

Among everyone present, the one who was most excited was probably the big boss Han Sanping.

I thought I was raising a little Calami.

Unexpectedly, he has grown into a real wild wolf without knowing it.

Whether he can become the king of the grassland remains to be discussed, but no one can deny that he has a place on the grassland.

He has been in the industry for decades.

Mr. Han knows very well that in the film industry, talent is very important, but hard work is also essential.

This time I actually met a real genius.

In just 80 minutes, his previous views have been completely overturned.

David Smith even believes that this movie should be quite popular in North America.

Even if the subject matter is limited, as long as it is done properly, it is easy to achieve commercial success.

Da Tiantian’s family has already negotiated business cooperation with Colombia.

Su Zhe had no ability to intervene.

But David Smith will not underestimate the youngster.

The young man who brings himself green money is, no, a genius. He and David Smith chatted cordially for a while.

Su Zhe naturally cannot interfere with foreign operations, but he can still control the domestic profits.

The announcement began to unfold in an orderly manner.

The schedule is finalized on February 2st.

Su Zhe decided to eat its flow in the middle period under Red Cliff.

Naturally, it annoyed a lot of investors.

Mr. Han also came over specifically to have an interview.

After all, that movie was also one of his decisions. He really lost money and looked bad, so Su Zhe finally decided to postpone it for another seven days. Mr. Han promised that Su Zhe would vigorously promote his movie.

Officially launched on February 2th.

2 month 4 number.

There are only four days until release.

Tai'a Media held urgent negotiations with China Film and Huayi, and the three parties spent an additional 600 million in promotional expenses, focusing on precise promotion after the release.

The focus of publicity will be on major ticket warehouses in the country to ensure that all first-tier cities across the country are fully publicized before the premiere.

This move also has another purpose. After the movie is released, it can smoothly arrange more movies in other theaters.

In this way, Su Zhe's small-investment film directly jumped into a medium-investment film.

The actors have also begun to increase their promotions.

We also worked harder when announcing the distribution. After all, with China Film’s distribution capabilities
Basically, it should be covered in prefecture-level cities across the country.

Especially as the protagonist, Leader Huang, he can get the biggest bonus.

It's hard to say that his status will go up a level.

China Film also prepared 700 copies in one go.

You must know that there are only 800 copies of Huayi's masterpiece Night Banquet.

Han Sanping attaches great importance to this movie.

Nowadays, the price of a copy is four to five hundred yuan, and 700 copies cost nearly 30 yuan in publicity and distribution expenses.

In 08, the number of domestic cinemas reached more than 1500 and more than 4000 screens.

This announcement by China Film Group is equivalent to allowing the movie "Run Lola Run" to directly enter 700 cinemas upon its premiere.

It is just half of the domestic cinemas, and most of them are good cinemas occupying favorable terrain.

Han Sanping also specifically promised Su Zhe that as long as the film is promoted well, it will immediately increase publicity and release more copies.

This treatment is far behind other directors.

Naturally, it’s because of the big sweet fruit of face.

Of course, compared to Lao Mouzi or Chen Shishi, it is still relatively inferior.

The promotional copy of "A City of Gold" released in 06 has almost reached its peak. More than 1100 copies were spread in major movie theaters across the country. You must know that the total number of movie theaters at that time was only about 1200.

When many movies were released, due to the small number of copies, there could only be one or two copies in a city, and several cinemas shared one copy.

It doesn’t matter if it does well at the box office. Xuanfa Company can increase the number of copies in the future. If the box office doesn’t do well, the movie will sink to the bottom in an instant and won’t even be able to make splashes.

In this era, film copying was still used, and it would not be popular until ten years later. The price of a digital hard drive was 200 yuan, which is more than half cheaper than now.

2 month 7 number.

Imperial Capital International Trade Center Wanda Cinema.

Run Lola Run will have its national premiere here.

Su Zhe strongly intervened in the Lunar New Year show, and Lola Run came with a fierce momentum. The premiere immediately attracted widespread attention in the entertainment industry.
