Huayu started as a substitute director

Chapter 222 Sense of Responsibility

With the deliberate suppression from above, the heat of this matter quickly subsided.

Nothing else, not nice to look at or hear.

Besides, Hong Kong people have certain values ​​these days, so it would be bad if they were to cause conflict.

They are patriotic!
The dwarf didn't come out to hold any press conference to struggle and deny it. He just disappeared and there is no trace of him.

There is no news about him on the Internet, but of course his movies have not been taken off the shelves. It would be too horrible if they were taken off the shelves. He has acted in hundreds of movies and has worked with almost all the famous actors in Hong Kong.

In other words, if it is taken off the shelves, most of the excellent Hong Kong films will have to be taken off the shelves as the impact will be too wide. The best thing to do is to prevent this person from appearing again.

Take good care of your retirement. You are so rich now, why are you still jumping around?

As for the "anti-principal alliance" that had not yet been formed, with the disappearance of the dwarf, everyone else shut up and stopped jumping around.

Afraid! They just cursed a few words, and the dwarf disappeared immediately.

They don't want to end up like the dwarf.

It’s so scary! This is something that many artists who were watching on the sidelines did not expect.

Although the heat has been suppressed, there is still lively discussion online, but the entertainment industry is as silent as a cicada, and no one dares to speak out for fear of offending someone.

It was still the same office. Fang Hongyang leaned back in his chair, looking up at the ceiling. No one knew what he was thinking about, and he did not move for a long time.

Even when Chen Zhixi came in, he seemed not to notice and did not react at all.

"What's going on?" she said.

"Do you think I did anything wrong?" Fang Hong asked.

Chen Zhixi sat on the chair opposite him, crossing his legs, looking intellectual and elegant, and his temperament was getting better and better.

She is rich, manages so many people, and the production is under her management, so it is normal for her temperament to improve.

She asked, "Someone said you did something wrong?"

"I shouldn't have done that." Fang Hong said.

"We really shouldn't have done that. In fact, with our strength, we can solve it in other ways. There's no need to do this. It just takes more time." Chen Zhixi told the truth.

Once we become stronger, there are many ways to ban Zeng the Dwarf. There is no need for people to offend Yutu. It is nothing more than an exchange of resources.

But Fang Hong couldn't wait and killed one person with the most drastic means.

Although it feels great, it also gives you a bad reputation, like a tyrant, which means you are not a benevolent and righteous army.

It is equivalent to the massacre of a city in ancient times. It is a very immoral manifestation. People are afraid of you, but they do not obey you. Even if you rise up, your position is not legitimate.

"You think so too." Fang Hong remained in the same position, his tone sounding calm.

"There are some things I don't know whether I should say or not." Chen Zhixi said this again.

"Then don't talk about it." Fang Hong said.

"Even if you don't let me speak, I'll still speak." Chen Zhixi smiled.

"Then why are you asking me? It's a waste of time." Fang Hong was speechless.

The two of them even started bickering. Chen Zhixi knew that he was fine, but he just fell into a misconception and couldn't get over it for a while.

“People outside may not know who you are, or that you are the boss of Yutu, but the people above know. They will position you and your company based on your behavior.”

Chen Zhixi added: "Enterprises must have a sense of responsibility to achieve a certain level. If you don't have a sense of responsibility, no matter how good your performance is, you will be abandoned because you are selfish.

Also, we come from grassroots backgrounds. Good performance is one thing, but when we become bigger, we must improve our image and demonstrate our sense of responsibility. Only then will the higher-ups think you are a positive person and worthy of honor.

Don't underestimate those certificates and banners of honor; they are what can truly protect you, not money.

You have done what others have not done, and you have created a good image that others have not created. Then you are a business card and are indispensable.

No matter your background or connections, can they compare to the country's optimism about you?"

Chen Zhixi spoke clearly and Fang Hong listened attentively.

In fact, the problems mentioned by Liu Tianxian, Zhang Hongsen and Chen Zhixi are that their companies have grown, their status has become high and they have become prominent, so they have to consider their own reputation.

In other words, it is equivalent to taking a broader perspective, taking a long-term view, and not always acting like a bandit as before.

Bandits should become regular soldiers when they reach a certain level. Do you want to be a bandit all your life?

This way he can fly highest and go further. This is what Liu Tianxian has always hoped for him.

But Liu Tianxian was very direct and told Fang Hong not to do such a thing. She had already told him to do it with integrity and she did not ask him to act like an ostrich, but to do it with integrity.

Others express themselves in a more euphemistic and biased way.

Zhang Hongsen wanted him to return to the right track and make movies properly. If he continued like this, even if others didn't bother him, his superiors would let him destroy himself and wouldn't listen to advice.

Chen Zhixi is thinking about the company. He wants the company to move to a higher level and become bigger and stronger. After all, he is a shareholder.

Liu Tianxian did it for him. She didn't want to end up in trouble and be held accountable for some bad things because he had too many black spots.

One can only say that Liu Tianxian cares about him, otherwise she wouldn't be so angry.

Fang Hong thought for a while and skipped the topic: "What do you want to see me about?"

"Oh, let me tell you that 'You Are the One' has been taken off the screen. The total box office was 4.31 million yuan, Yutu's revenue was 1.02 million yuan, and Tupiaopiao's revenue reached 1293 million yuan." Chen Zhixi took out the revenue account book.

The box office was quite high, exceeding his expectations, but it was also reasonable. This year's film market is further expanding, and there are more movies with box office of 300 to 500 million yuan.

It’s not like last year, every year is different!
"There is also a film and television department at the back. You can also take a look at the revenue of all movies and TV series from August last year to the present." Chen Zhixi said again.

Fang Hong took the account book, opened it and looked down.

《那些年》票房1.3亿，收入2589万。《失恋33天》票房3.47亿，收入8500万。

"So Young" grossed 4.06 million yuan and earned 1.002 million yuan.

"Beijing Meets Seattle" had a box office of 3.96 million yuan and revenue of 9781 million yuan.

"Bad Genius" grossed 3.62 million yuan and earned 8941 million yuan, excluding overseas copyrights.

"So Young" had a box office of 3.05 million yuan and earned 7228 million yuan, and from then on, the profits were distributed through Tupiaopiao.

"Veteran" grossed 6.4 million won in Korean won and 3.8 million in China, so the proportions are different.

Revenue from South Korea was 1.28 million, plus 9006 million in China, for a total of 2.276 million.

"You Are the One" grossed 4.31 million yuan and earned 1.02 million yuan.

In these three years, Yutu has released a total of eight films, with box office revenue reaching 8.0019 million yuan.

This is already a very impressive achievement in the film and television industry, and is considered unique.

In addition, there is copyright income, and the copyright amounts are different. Among them, although the box office revenue of "Bad Genius" is not high, the copyright is the most expensive.

Yindu paid 2000 million and Netflix paid 4200 million. Of course, these are all time limits. The copyright will be taken back after two years and they will have to pay again.

Domestic television and streaming media paid about 3000 million, and the total copyright revenue has reached 9200 million, which is higher than the box office revenue.

This movie has not been released on DVD because piracy is rampant in Asia, making it impossible to release a DVD. European and American manufacturers are not very optimistic about it.

Because distributing DVDs costs money, including the cost of producing the discs and channels.

Copyrights in Europe and the United States are very strict, and if an Asian film is not a Hollywood film, they are afraid that it will not sell well and they will lose money if they release DVDs.

It is mainly due to the impact of streaming media. Now people are watching movies and TV shows on streaming media. Distributors all over the world are transforming to streaming media. This is the trend.

As for the copyrights of other movies, ranging from several million to 10 million, the copyright fees were not high when it was 12 years, unlike the years now.

However, the copyrights that were sold earlier are almost expiring, so they can be sold again.

Excluding "Bad Genius", the copyrights of the seven movies brought in a total of 7 million, which is still less than the copyright fees of "Bad Genius".

This also proves that box office is not absolute.

If a movie is good and has a great influence, the copyright income will be very high. If a bad movie has poor box office performance and fails to have an impact, the box office may be high, but the copyright income may not be high.

Although cinemas can estimate the value, word of mouth and audience preferences also come into play.

Some people won’t watch a bad movie if they hear about it, and some viewers won’t watch it a second time because it’s bad.

A good movie can be watched once or twice, and even if you watch it again ten years later, you will still enjoy it. This is the charm of art films.

Different from commercial films.

Commercial films are like one-time deals, while art films are long-lasting.

For example, "Bad Genius" which was released last year still had an impact on Liu Tianxian's career this year. Not only did her status improve, but she also had more activities.

I was also invited by the Shanghai International Film Festival to be an overseas promotion ambassador.

This film festival will be held on June 6th, and it hasn't started yet, but Liu Tianxian has already been chosen as the promotional ambassador.

This time she went to shoot promotional videos and photos.

In the past two years, Liu Tianxian is the only actress who starred in a movie that gained a good reputation overseas, achieving a double explosion in box office and reputation, and is still a hot topic overseas.

This is something other actresses cannot compare to at the moment, more or less because their popularity, works, and image are not enough.

She has a good image, good temperament, and positive energy certified by the Shanghai International Film Festival.

For example, the scandals about Zhang Ziyi, such as the swearing scandal, streaking scandal, fraudulent donation scandal, ink-throwing scandal, fire-breathing scandal, and beach scandal, have already become a big deal.

This wave of Liu Tianxian also brought popularity to "The Four".

But then again, from the year before last to now, Yutu Films’ total revenue has reached 9.67 million yuan, plus the TV series “Beijing Love Story”, the revenue exceeds 1 million yuan.

In other words, Yutu's total revenue in the past three years exceeded 10 billion. This is revenue, not profit. Expenses also include film and television investment, administrative expenses, interest, etc., and taxes are not yet calculated.

The tax to be paid is about 100 to 200 million yuan, and this is after Yutu applied to be a high-tech enterprise and was exempted from part of the tax.

Fang Hong closed the account. He roughly knew that Yutu probably owed two or three hundred million yuan, but he had tens of millions of dollars in overseas deposits, so he was not worried.

Because "Split" has been released for more than a month, the global box office is 2.78 million, which is 6950 million US dollars, and the revenue is 4.86 million.

As long as overseas income can cover domestic debt, it will be fine.

Fang Hong has always known that domestic film and television cannot make big money at present. This is also the reason why those big directors and big stars have always said not to use their own money to make movies.

Because if things go wrong you will end up losing money and the risk is huge.

Just think about it, so many professionals, so much money, so much effort, and a year of time, and what was filmed is the data on the hard drive.

Do you think this data is valuable? I guess you are not sure!
Not everyone has the prophetic ability like Fang Hong, and not everyone has the big data computing power and global market support like Hollywood.

Many markets are moving forward with trepidation.

Even though the country has been making losses, Fang Hong has not given up on the industrialization of film and television. Who says he has no sense of responsibility?

His purpose has never changed.

The goal is to build a large content system and improve the production capabilities of special effects, animation, and filming.

Reach the advanced level of Hollywood.
