Entertainment upstart

Chapter 650
Zhou Xia slept late last night. When she got up in the morning, she went to the airport to catch a flight to Shanghai. She got off the plane only now. She didn't know the specific situation, so she had to find out first.

After hanging up the phone with the board of directors, I turned on another mobile phone, and only after I searched out some black information about him and Xia Hua Film and Television, Yang Tianzhen called.

"Boss, then I'll talk about the matter directly." Yang Tianzhen heard Zhou Xia's order in the conference room just now, and said directly.

"Okay, tell me, what's going on now." Zhou Xia asked quickly.

"That's how it is. The current revelations about Xiahua Film and Television and you are targeted, and the most threatening ones are the defamation of some movie box office records about you and the company."

"Really, is there anything to criticize about this?" Zhou Xia was quite puzzled, but also began to think seriously.

"Someone on Weibo and Tianya Forum has made very detailed data on several of your films, as well as several other blockbuster films of the company. , Subsidies rushed out, relying on the box office of emerging Internet companies such as Xiahua Video Network, Miaoyan Movies, Tiaobao, Xiahua Chinese Network, Are You Hungry, and Wutuan, without these subsidies and water injection, the box office would at least decrease. Go for a third, maybe even a half.

Moreover, these posts have very detailed data, including the advertising subsidies invested by these companies. While exposing the problem of ticket subsidies, they also discredited our box office and reported us to the Special Fund Office. Now many media have asked us to respond to this matter. , In addition, someone from the special fund office sent a letter asking us to cooperate with the investigation, and the company is preparing to respond to this. "

"Attack us for movie ticket repayment and water injection?" Zhou Xia was slightly taken aback, and hurriedly asked: "Inject water, how is this possible? I reminded Zhang Zhao before that he must never do this!"

Zhou Xia's tone implied anger. He really didn't know the specific situation. After all, he hadn't asked about the company's specific matters for a long time.

Yang Tianzhen was startled, and hurriedly replied: "Mr. Zhang said that there is absolutely no water injection. You can rest assured about this."

"Really, as long as there is no water injection, what's there to be afraid of? Don't other film companies have to pay for tickets? The big deal is to publicly respond to this matter, isn't it just an unspoken rule of the industry!"

Zhou Xia felt relieved, and asked again with some puzzlement.

"Yes, but this will definitely affect the reputation of you and the company, as well as the word-of-mouth of the movie we are showing. If the audience's impression changes, it will greatly damage the company's stock price and brand image. In addition, there are many scandals about you personally. ..."

After Yang Tianzhen talked about it, he still said another thing.

"As long as those things are not true, follow-up public relations will do. As long as there are good works, the public's impression can be changed very quickly."

After Zhou Xia responded, she asked vigilantly, "What's the scandal about me?"

"There is no definite evidence, but there is a microblogger named 'Gaozi Dasheng' on the Internet, who posted a lot of photos about your car, all of which were taken outside the villas of Xiaohu, Yaya, and Yufei. ?”

"Is that so, did you get a picture of me?" Zhou Xia's head broke out in a cold sweat. Normally, he drove the ordinary car that Yang Tianzhen prepared for him very late, but he was actually photographed.

"There is a side shadow, no front, so I'm not sure it's you."

"Really, wait, let me take a look." Zhou Xia felt even worse when she heard this, and hurriedly opened Weibo on another mobile phone and searched for the Weibo of 'The Great Sage of Gouzi', and found the leaking Weibo. Bo.

"The No. 2013 news in the entertainment industry in [-]!"

Seeing this exaggerated Weibo title, Zhou Xia hated it, and hurried to look at those photos, ignoring the nonsense.

As Yang Tianzhen said, they were all driven by him, and the photos taken were of going in and out of several different villas, and only one shot showed half of his profile through the driving window.

Zhou Xia carefully discerned and found that he was relieved to be able to confirm that it was him.

He is still very cautious every time. When he travels, he wears hats, sunglasses, and clothes that conceal his body shape. He cannot be judged from this half silhouette.

Moreover, these cars have different numbers, and he rarely drives the same car more than two or three times. The only thing is that he took photos of these cars entering and exiting his apartment complex in the capital city.

Therefore, the "Great Dog Sage" deduced from this that he was deceiving others, and that person was him.

Looking at the comments below, there are also many rhythms. They all say that it is him, and he obviously came prepared.

The number one hot search suddenly came from this revelation: Zhou Xia dated many actresses at the same time, it's solid!
"I really beat you." Zhou Xia couldn't help but slander, and felt relieved, after all, there were still many fans who supported him and denounced this paparazzi.

Zhou Xia looked at the Weibo account of the 'Paparazzi Great Sage' again, and couldn't help thinking, isn't this the apprentice of the number one paparazzi Zhuo Xiaowei?

Could it be that Zhuo Xiaowei still sent someone to follow him secretly?
Thinking of this, Zhou Xia hurriedly said to Yang Tianzhen: "Go and ask Zhuo Xiaowei what's going on, this 'God Sage' is a member of his team."

"Okay, how do you respond to the ticket supplement and water injection?" Yang Tianzhen asked quickly.

"Since there is no water injection, then deny it. For the rumormongers to resort to legal means, this kind of thing must not be repeated. As for ticket compensation, you can say as much as you can. Isn't this a normal industry rule? No one is. Bai Lianhua, you don’t have to respond openly, you just need to let people break the news on the Internet, even if you want to spread knowledge to ordinary audiences who don’t understand it.”

Zhou Xia thought for a while and made an explanation.

Speaking of it, his films have repeatedly set box office records, although it has a great relationship with the quality of the film, but in fact, as it is said on the Internet, ticket subsidies have indeed played a big role.

Otherwise, the box office will definitely shrink a lot, and in 2012, it is impossible to create a box office record of more than 20 billion.

Of course, all of this is a win-win situation. The Xia Hua family, including the emerging Internet companies he invested in, are willing to invest in this area, because his popularity and the high popularity of his movies can bring good publicity effects to their company.

Furthermore, although the box office subsidy started when his first movie "Charlotte Annoyance" was released, it is now very common. It is a normal way to promote movies and is not illegal.

To put it simply, you go to a certain platform to buy a movie ticket, and the movie ticket is on sale at 9.9 yuan. Of course, it is impossible to be so cheap in reality. Your ticket is at least 25 yuan or even higher when it is included in the box office, while between 9.9 and 25 The money in between is the box office subsidy.

Who will pay for this money?
This has to talk about the box office share first. The general share in China is 10% for the publisher, 40% for the copyright owner, and 50% for the theater.

For example, the ticket price of a movie is 25 yuan. A certain movie theater wants to promote itself because it is located in a remote area.

If at this time, the movie theater is more ruthless, not only do I not need the share, but I subsidize 2.6 per movie ticket, then the movie ticket will only cost 9.9.

These transactions are all real. The movie theater seems to have suffered a temporary loss of profit, but the movie theater has attracted customers with the low price only here, and the distributor and copyright owner have also received a share, so there is no problem.
