Chapter 587 Both Broken One Billion! (Second more please subscribe!)

The seven-day long Spring Festival holiday is over soon, those who should go to work go to work, and those who go to school go to school.

After seven days of fierce competition for the Spring Festival stalls, coupled with the decline on the first working day, it is already clear that it is basically impossible to turn the market around.

A new year, a whole bunch of new jobs.

It will take Tang An a month to handle all the company's affairs. At that time, the pre-production special effects are basically done last night, and there are still some sporadic digital special effects to be done after editing. There is no problem in catching up with the summer vacation in July.

Work started on the first day of the seventh day of the lunar new year, and half of the employees in the promotion and marketing department and the distribution department who worked overtime during the Spring Festival were on vacation.

One morning, various departments were busy giving out red envelopes, and held a meeting.

On the first day, there was nothing important. The employees had to find their way to work.

After the meeting, Tang An and Chen Guofu came to the office.

"Old Chen, thank you so much these past few years. Without your help, I really can't manage this company well while being distracted from filming."

Tang An solemnly thanked Chen Guofu. In the past few years, he had said many thanks, but today's thank you word is the most sincere and literal meaning.

Chen Guofu talked with Tang An a few years ago. After this summer, he will leave Hantang Media with his team to set up his own company.

Tang An didn't force him to stay, and capable people all had different ambitions. When Chen Guofu came here, he came here largely for the experience of managing a large company.

Now that three years have passed, it's time to think about starting my own business.

Even if he doesn't leave by himself, his team will force him to leave.

When Chen Guofu came out of Huayi, he took away the publicity director Zhu Mo, screenwriters Zhang Jialu, Wang Qinan, producer Tao Kun, and several other screenwriters and producers. Huayi's team.

These people can definitely support a large film and television company.

Zhu Mo is a top marketing talent in the film and television industry. In Huayi, he went from an employee to a publicity director step by step, and came to a new company with an uncertain future as a publicity director.

Zhang Jialu, a top screenwriter, wrote the scripts of blockbuster films such as "Looking for the Dragon", "Painted Skin" series, and "Longling Miku".

Even Xu Ke's "Di Renjie: Tongtian Empire" was asked to write the script by him, and Tang An didn't have any objections.

He participated in the previous "A World Without Thieves", "The Wind" in the original time and space, and the script.

Although Wang Qinan is not as good as Zhang Jialu, he has a share in the script of "Looking for the Dragon".

Not only can he write scripts, but he is also a good producer. He was the producer of Yuan Shikong's "The Year in a Hurry", and later he made a movie by himself and hit the street.

Tao Kun is also a top-notch producer.

These people also followed Chen Guofu because of their ambitions, just like Zhao Kuangyin in the Chen Qiao Mutiny, who pushed him forward.

If Chen Guofu doesn't move forward, these people should leave.

These people, and their respective teams, constituted the core figures of Hantang Media at the beginning. When the people left by Poly Culture and Dongfang Shenlong were not stable, they supported the entire Hantang Media.

In the first two years, the film and television dramas produced by the company were inseparable from the shadows of those people. Last year, the company stabilized and began to reuse the group of people left behind, and also recruited some people.

Tang An had expected this day, and Chen Guofu knew it, so the two stopped talking politely and sensationally.

"Tang Dong, I have chatted with them. Lao Zhang, Lao Wang, Lao Liang and Zhu Mo, their respective teams are willing to follow me. If Lao Tao has a suitable position, he is willing to stay." Chen Guo said directly.

Everyone wants to start a business and be their own boss, but starting a business is not so easy.

Tao Kun wanted to take over from Chen Guofu, but it was definitely impossible for him to be the president. Without this ability, he was still far behind.

Being able to supervise and produce several films in an all-round way does not mean being able to manage a large company with 2000 employees.

A good producer, no matter how strong his business ability is, he is still a producer.

Even now Zhao Jun, the director of the production department, is far worse than Tao Kun in terms of business ability, but he can do well in the management position of production director, while Tao Kun can't do well.

Tang An thought for a while and said, "Of course I welcome you if you want to stay. However, the company currently has no vacancies. I can only offer a position as the deputy director of the production department."

Chen Guofu smiled wryly and shook his head, "Then he will definitely not agree, Lao Tao has ambitions."

Instead of talking about others, Tang An asked him about his new company idea.

"Old Chen, it is impossible for you to directly control the domestic cultural industry, which will affect your company's ability to obtain industry qualifications, and it will also be difficult for IPOs in the future. What are you going to do?"

The country has always been in charge of the film and television culture industry. At the beginning, Warner Wanda Cinemas had to withdraw from Warner Wanda Cinemas because of a paperwork.

Warner developed a complete theater chain management system, and it took several years to set up the framework of the theater network structure. Warner also worked on all kinds of equipment, and finally made a wedding dress for Wanda.

Chen Guofu was from Baodao, so he also had some influence.

Chen Guofu himself knew about this problem, and he already had an idea.

"I will not hold shares in the new company, the shares will be shared among them," Chen Guofu said.

Tang An nodded. It was still the same as before. Chen Guofu didn't have any shares in Kung Fu Films in the original space-time. It was basically in the hands of other members of their team when it was established.

Other funds and investment companies are also opened by a few members of their team. There are seven or eight shareholders, and they are just a few of them going around.

However, Chen Guofu has a series of contracts with them to ensure his own interests and control of the company.

Tang An gave some advice, after all, he has experience in starting a business.

Chen Guofu's new company is still called Kungfu Films, and it will receive capital injection from Hantang, about 10% of the shares.

Tang An will also give their team 7% of the shares of Hantang Film and Television Company, which can be regarded as a compliment for their contribution to the group.

Although it is only 7%, Hantang Film and Television will also raise funds, and this 7% will be diluted, but it is still a large amount of shares. If it goes public in the future, it will be a large amount of money to cash out.

It didn't take long to talk, and the company still had a lot of trouble.

From now on, Chen Guofu will also slowly hand over the things in his hands to Xu Manyun, Liu Debin, the vice president of the film business department, and Zhuang Liqi, the vice president of the TV drama business department.

To be honest, Tang An really wanted to keep them, even if Xu Zheng left, it would not be as important as Chen Guofu and his team.

But everyone has their own ambitions, there is no way, the executives of the three major BAT companies often leave their jobs.

For the time being, only a few people know about Chen Guofu, and the company is still operating as usual.

It's the beginning of the new year, including Hantang Film and Television, the other four film and television companies, and a lot of film and television dramas will be launched again.

The smoke of the Spring Festival stalls is still going on. Although the eighth day is Sunday, I still have to go to work after the holiday.

"Lost in Hong Kong" and "Journey to the West: Conquering the Devil" received 3500 million and 2300 million respectively.

A Hollywood crime action movie "Jack Reacher" was released the day before, starring Tom Cruise.

But "Tom Cruise" is now the "Mission: Impossible" series can sell well, and other movies are not so good.

This movie is no exception, with 7800 million US dollars in North America and 3300 million yuan in two days in China, it still didn't have much impact on the two movies.

The next week, a complete week, "囧囧 in Hong Kong" won 2.43 million in seven days, continuing to lead the Spring Festival, and the total box office reached 16 billion in 10.18 days of release!
"囧囧 in Hong Kong" became the sixth China Entertainment Film with a box office of over [-] billion!

And "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" earned 1.67 million in the past seven days, and the trend has stabilized, with a total box office of 8.85 million.

The newly released epic fantasy blockbuster "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" exceeded 2.99 million in three days. This derivative series of "Lord of the Rings" has a good box office, and it also won a super high box office of [-] million US dollars in North America.

At the same time, there is also a horror film "The Elevator", but it has nothing to do with "The Chainsaw". It is a typical domestic horror film.

Now domestic horror films have the same titles. There used to be "Pen Fairy", "Far Cry", and now there is "Elevator Cry".

1000 million in three days, although the box office is not high, but for this kind of low-cost horror film, it is enough to recover the cost.

Can get such a high box office, I don't know if it has something to do with the heroine of the movie named Bai (Ji Ji).

The next week, "Lost in Hong Kong" still broke through 1.23 million in a single week, with a box office of 11.41 million and a total box office of [-] billion.

"The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" came in second with 1.19 million figures.

"Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" won a box office of 8000 million in a single week, with a total box office of 9.65 million!
This week, the new film "The 101st Marriage Proposal" released by Hantang Media was released simultaneously in three places across the Taiwan Strait, just to avoid the box office explosion period of several blockbuster films.

This love movie adapted from the Japanese drama of the same name did well at the box office, surpassing [-] million in four days.

There is nothing strange about Huang Bo acting in romance films, and it is quite normal for Lin Zhiling to act in romance films.

But the two of them played the leading role together, no matter how you look at it, it's against harmony.

This is also a method of publicity, which fully mobilizes the curiosity of the audience.

I was curious and interested, so I bought a ticket to go to the movies to see how these two actors with a huge gap acted in a love scene.

Breaking through 3000 million in four days is definitely a big hit for a production cost of only [-] million.

The next week, "Lost in Hong Kong" has been released for more than 30 days, and the box office finally dropped sharply. It only got 5000 million, with a total box office of 11.91 billion, and the final landing point was just over 12 billion.

"Journey to the West" made 3600 million in a single week, and the total box office successfully exceeded 10.01 billion, reaching [-] billion, becoming the seventh Chinese film with a box office of over [-] million!

After a month of fierce competition, two movies with a box office of one billion were born in the 2013 Spring Festival.

Whether it is the producers of the two films or their peers in the industry, they are extremely excited.

This means that the domestic film market is enough to accommodate two 10 billion-rated films at the same time!
Although Wang Zhongjun was a little depressed and was overwhelmed by "囧囧 in Hong Kong", the focus now is to hype the box office of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" breaking one billion. One push!
Some people are happy while others are sad. Zhang Wei in Ahli is not happy. In order to promote "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", she dropped all the promotional channels in Ahli. She didn't expect that the success would fall short in the end.

Wang Jinghua was also unhappy. According to her thinking, if the movie starring Wen Zhang this time could step on the movie invested by Tang An, it would be considered a vent for herself.

However, she didn't have time to be angry. Her subordinates produced a leading actor with a single movie worth billions of dollars. It was time to promote vigorously. She wanted to use this shareholder style to make Wen Zhang the No. 1 male star of the new generation in one fell swoop.

Anyway, all the advantages that an actor should have are placed on Wen Zhang.

What humility and courtesy, respect for seniors, harmony between husband and wife... It's like trying to make Wen Zhang a perfect artist.
