Entertainment, I just like making movies

The meeting lasted all morning.

Near the end, Fang Ziheng asked about the situation of "Youth Campus 2" again.

"Youth Campus 2" will have its premiere tonight. It is the first work controlled by Hengyu Media this year.

Because it is placed under the banner of Hengyu Interactive Entertainment, all publicity plans and details after the movie is released are left to Andy, Mo Xiangwan, and Wen Muye.

On the one hand, it verifies the hard power of Hengyu Interactive Entertainment, and on the other hand, it can more effectively integrate the resources of the two joint publishing companies of Beidou Qixing and Wuzhou.

Zhong Lifang heard the question and handed over a plan: "Chairman, Qin Zhong, director of the distribution department of Hengyu Interactive Entertainment, has sent over the promotion plan for "Youth Campus 2". Please take a look."

Fang Ziheng waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Since I have decided to delegate power, I will not watch it. You can come over and take a look in the next few days."

"Okay, I will." Zhong Lifang's eyes flashed and she responded in a condensed voice.

Although the top executives removed from Hengyu Interactive Entertainment are all from the headquarters, because it has not been established for a long time, the cooperation between various departments is not tacit enough.

In addition, the movies that were previously distributed under Hengyu Interactive Entertainment were all managed by the headquarters and connected with the shareholder theaters of Beidou Seven Star Distribution Company.

This time, Hengyu headquarters has completely decentralized power, and bumps in resource mobilization are inevitable.

In the past, Zhong Lifang represented Hengyu Headquarters, which was equivalent to the immediate boss of Hengyu Interactive Entertainment and Beidou Qixing. She was an imperial envoy.

Of course.

Andy is also the president of Hengyu Media. If she personally supervises the release of "Youth Campus 2", it will be more effective than Zhong Lifeng's past.

But Hengyu Interactive Entertainment had just gone public, and Andy had to make the decision in everything. She really didn't have time.

Fang Ziheng is already considering whether to let Lin Feifei or Zhong Lifang take over as Andy's president and be responsible for the daily management of Hengyu Media.

In this way, Andy can free up more time and energy to devote to the work of Hengyu Interactive Entertainment.

However, if Sister Lin wants to have a child, she may not necessarily agree if she is asked to be the CEO.

Difficult to handle, difficult to handle!

Five p.m.

Imperial Capital Dongzhimen, Hengyu Cinema flagship store.

Luxury cars one after another slowly parked in the small square outside the flagship store under the guidance of security guards. The people who got out of the cars were all glamorous, with superior appearance and temperament.

Outside the cinema gate, Wen Muye, who had just finished working on "I'm Not the God of Medicine," and Qin Zhong, director of the distribution department of Hengyu Interactive Entertainment, became the first doorkeepers to receive guests at tonight's premiere.

"Brother Kun, Mr. Zhou, you two are welcome to come and support me."

"Brother Chao, Brother Ye, you are finally here. Come on, please come inside. Please come inside."

"Mr. Wang, why are you here!"

"Mr. Wang, we are a brother department. The filming arrangement of "Youth Campus 2" can rely on the help of brother theaters."

At the beginning of June in the imperial capital, the hot weather quietly entered.

Wen Muye and Qin Zhong faced waves of guests. Their foreheads were so hot that they were sweating. They bowed their hands and their mouths were frozen in laughter.

After a while, several waves of guests were received in succession, and the luxury cars outside turned away.

Wen Muye breathed a long sigh of relief, pulled the tie on his chest, took two bottles of mineral water from the pile of mineral water in the corner, handed one to Qin Zhong, opened one himself, and drank heavily.

"Old Qin, how many guests have come?"

"It's still early. Mr. Mo has sent out 150 invitations, and the real big guys are behind."

Qin Zhong was also very hot. He took the mineral water and drank it to his full capacity. He turned around and looked at the gate of the cinema behind him and said.

"Alas, Mr. An and Mr. Mo are the same. Why do you let us two be the door gods?"

Fumino complained sadly, took off his suit and threw it on the reception table behind him.

Although it is just a formality, there are all necessary procedures. In addition to the signature book at the entrance of the cinema, there is also a large signature poster.

It's just that the weather is too hot, so the guests rarely stop to sign. Most of them are registered in the signature book by the etiquette lady who is responsible for handing out pens.

Registration is a must, and 150 invitations are sent out. If the guests don’t come, it’s just that. Once they come to support, Hengyu Entertainment will have to return the favor in the future.

Returning a gift is not giving money!

The correct operation is that when a certain guest's work is released or broadcast, Hengyu Interactive Entertainment also has to send someone to support it.

It's almost half past six.

Fang Ziheng, the biggest host tonight, came late with Liu Qianqian's chatter.

"Director... Sissi."

Fumino had a grimace on his face and waved weakly to say hello.

Qin Zhong also lost his energy and forced a smile: "Chairman, Miss Liu."

"Oh, my clothes are soaked through. It's hard work."

Looking at the shirts of the two of them that were almost soaked, Fang Ziheng immediately smiled and patted Wen Muye on the shoulder to express his approval.

Then, he held Liu Qianqian's hand and walked into the cinema with brisk steps, leaving two resentful eyes behind him.

Entering the infield, the sultry weather completely disappeared, and the large central air conditioner provided coolness to the guests at all times.

In the large screening room No. 1, six to seven hundred spectators happily came in from another passage and sat in the back under the guidance of the cinema staff.

Most of the audience tonight are young people, including college students, students who have just taken the college entrance examination, and young urban lovers.

After taking their seats, everyone started discussing in unison.

"Hey, tell me, what is the theme of the second part of "Youth Campus"?"

"The theme of the first part is going back to high school, and the second part should be going back to college."

"Go back to college and pursue love?"

"Looking at the trailer of the movie, it says that the male protagonist is humiliated by a goddess and works hard to become stronger."

"Ah, he has traveled back in time and was humiliated by the goddess. This male protagonist is too useless!"

"Who says otherwise? Zheng Kai isn't ugly either. Which goddess has such high standards?"

The audience here was busy discussing, and in the two atrium lounges next door, the guests present were also communicating quietly.

When Fang Ziheng and Liu Qianqian came in, more than a hundred guests all looked over and raised their hands to greet them.

The two walked over, and Fang Ziheng waved to everyone and thanked them: "The weather is so hot, thank you for enjoying the show tonight, thank you."

"Dr. Fang is too polite. We should come here to chat with you."

"Yes, it's a movie directed by Director Su Lun. It's a pleasure for us to come and watch it. It's really a great blessing in life."

"Director Fang, I heard that Hengyu is also planning to shoot a kung fu movie. I wish Director Fang a great start and that the kung fu movie will be a global hit!"

"Director Fang, if you need any help, just ask. I look forward to cooperating with you, Director Fang."

There were sounds of flattery, and the tone and attitude of the guests seemed to be more respectful.

Fang Ziheng smiled and greeted, shaking hands with one person and chatting with another as he walked by, looking like a big boss.

At this time, he couldn't help but show off.

At this level of wealth, facing his peers in the industry, except for a handful of people, no one can talk to him on an equal footing.

If you are really too polite to someone, it will make the other person whisper in his heart and make it difficult for him to sleep or eat well when he goes back.

In public, it is necessary for him, the big boss of Hengyu Media, to maintain proper reserve.

You don't have to do it in private. Instead, you have to show an attitude of being amiable and courteous to the corporal.

Under everyone's smiling gaze, Fang Ziheng and Liu Qianqian came to the door of Lounge No. 1 and knocked on the door.

Liu Qianqian blinked, stopped, and smiled at him.

"I'm not going in."

With that said, the young lady turned to the left hand side of the hall, where more than a dozen Hengyu artists were chatting and laughing.

Fang Ziheng didn't force it, opened the door and walked into the lounge No. 1.

There were not many guests in the lounge, including Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian, Song Ge, Mr. Tan from Xingmei, Director Li from Baoli who was in charge of the cinema, and a middle-aged man in his fifties.

"Good evening, everyone!"

As soon as he entered the door, Fang Ziheng greeted him.

"Director Fang, you are late again!"

"Haha, Brother Fang, you are here."

"Director Fang, please make it easy for us to wait!"

Three old acquaintances, Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian and Song Ge, stood up to greet him and couldn't help but tease him.

Just as Fang Ziheng was about to say a few polite words, he saw the slightly unfamiliar middle-aged man also stand up.

"Hey, Director Xu is here too. It's a rare visitor."

"Director Fang, Mr. Xu came here without warning, specifically to learn from you."

The middle-aged man took the initiative to take two steps forward, stretched out his hand and shook hands with Zi Heng.

"No, Director Xu is the senior, I should like you to learn from him."

Fang Ziheng showed joy on his face and was very polite. He asked the middle-aged man to sit down again and said, "Director Xu, is Mr. Xu feeling well?"

"Okay, the old man is in good health and can eat and sleep." The middle-aged man smiled slightly and Lang Shuang said.

This person is none other than Xu Yongan, the chairman of Hengdian Holding Group.

His father is the founder of Hengdian Film and Television City, Xu Wenrong, a famous film and television senior.

Fang Ziheng and Xu Yongan exchanged contact information and invited each other to attend the subsequent thank-you dinner.

Xu Yongan agreed and said he would have two more drinks with Fang Ziheng tonight.

The two looked at each other and smiled, both seeing the friendship in each other's eyes.

As the chairman of the huge Hengdian Holdings, Xu Yongan came here tonight not just for the premiere. He had important things to discuss with Fang Ziheng.

Don't rush now, wait until the movie screening is over and we can talk at the appreciation dinner.

After exchanging a few words.

Fang Ziheng turned to look at Wang Zhongjun, raised his eyebrows and said, "I haven't congratulated Director Wang yet. Jiuzhou Issuance is established. Huayi has another big help!"

"Where is it? Jiuzhou Distribution has just been established and is not as powerful as Big Dipper."

Wang Zhongjun had a smile in his eyes and spoke with some reserve, suppressing the joy in his heart.

Jiuzhou Distribution means to dominate the four seas, five continents, and the Big Dipper. The franchisees include Huayi Brothers, Bona Pictures, Tengxun Entertainment Group, Dadi Cinemas, and China Film Group.

There are five companies in total, and their strength surpasses Sihai Distribution established by Moying and Alibaba Pictures, and also surpasses Wuzhou Distribution established by Hengyu Interactive Entertainment, Xingmei, and Guangxian.

It is only under the two companies of Beidou Qixing under the China Film Department and Hengyu Media Department.

It can be said unceremoniously that Jiuzhou Distribution, led by Wang Zhongjun, controls more than 15% of the national cinema chain share.

The four major joint distribution companies, China Film, Hengyu, Magic, and Huayi, cover more than 95% of theaters in the country.

From now on, any movie released will inevitably have to deal with four joint distribution companies.

Even if distribution companies spring up in two years, they can only grab guaranteed distribution. The real promotion and distribution business of the film's release will have to rely on these four joint distribution companies.

Among the four joint distribution companies, the China Film Department is the most powerful, with nearly half of the country’s theaters, and its position is unshakable.

Yes, it occupies nearly half of the power, about 45% to 46%.

If it weren't for the rapid development of private theaters in the past two years and the construction of many theaters under China Film Group, China Film Group's share would be even greater, at least 55%.

The Hengyu system ranked second.

Hengyu Cinemas, Wanda Cinemas, Baoli Cinemas, Hengdian Cinemas, and Jinyi Zhujiang Cinemas account for more than 30% of the cinema chain share.

Jiuzhou Distribution, founded by Huayi, ranks eighth in Dadi Cinemas, 14th in cinemas owned by China Film Group, and 25th in the country for Huayi Cinemas.

The Shadow Series has the smallest share, with only one joint theater chain ranked third, while Alibaba Pictures has no theater chain.

The establishment of Jiuzhou United Publishing also shows that Huayi is unwilling to be suppressed by Hengyu Media and is unwilling to give up its position as the leader that originally belonged to Huayi.

Wang Zhongjun came here today just to see Fang Ziheng's face.

Let’s see if Fang Ziheng will be embarrassed and anxious after learning that Huayi has established Jiuzhou Distribution.

Wang Zhongjun thinks too much!

Huayi established a joint publishing company. Fang Ziheng was neither anxious nor depressed, but very happy.

To be honest, Fang Ziheng has never thought of dominating the Chinese film market. Firstly, it is unrealistic, and secondly, he has no such ambition.

As I said before, how about Hua Yi Zai? It is also a professional film and television company, and it always takes movies more seriously than Alibaba Pictures and Teng Xun.

In the past few years, Fang Ziheng has cooperated with one company today and another company tomorrow, using high-quality content to hook up with film and television giants such as China Film, Huayi, Guangxian, Bona, and Wanda Film, and finally achieved some results.

Compared with the previous life, the Chinese film market at this point in time is obviously much better.

The environment, professional talents, and production capabilities are all a higher level than in the previous life.

At the very least, many great directors, famous directors, and major film and television crews in the first-line production field have been inspired by Fang Ziheng in recent years to treat film and television works more seriously.

Fang Ziheng never eats alone, and hopes that Chinese movies will flourish!

He believed in himself and Hengyu Media to grab the biggest piece of cake in the booming era of Chinese-language films.

Ahem, that’s too much!

Wang Zhongjun stared at Fang Ziheng's expression and found nothing unusual, and cursed secretly in his heart.

Little fox, just pretend!

Immediately, he changed the subject and asked with a smile: "Director Fang, Yu Dong sent an invitation to the ceremony a few days ago. Bona is on the market. Will you go?"

"It's June 24, right? I'll watch it then. "I'm Not the God of Medicine" will be released not far away, so I may not have time."

Fang Ziheng smiled, took out cigarettes and distributed them to several people, lit them for Xu Yong'an who was standing beside him, and lit another one for himself.

call..

Exhaling a puff of smoke, Fang Ziheng narrowed his eyes and asked, "Where's Director Wang? We are all friends and businessmen. Are you going?"

"There's also Guangxian and Wanda, are you two going?"

As he said this, he looked at Wang Zhongjun, Wang Changtian and Song Ge at the same time.

Song Ge flicked the ashes of his cigarette and continued: "I have to go there. Wanda Film and Television will be launched next year, so I can go there to learn more."

"Haha, when it comes to listing, Mr. Song, Guangxian, Baoli Cinemas, and Singmei Cinemas have already exchanged ideas with Hengyu Interactive Entertainment. The only one missing is you, Wanda Films!"

Fang Ziheng spoke quietly, looked at Song Ge and said solemnly: "Mr. Song, regarding the shareholding exchange between Hengyu Interactive Entertainment and Wanda Film and Television, what do Wanda headquarters think, has it not been decided yet?"

"Don't worry, Director Fang. Our chairman has already spoken. When he finishes his work these days, he will come to talk to you in person."

Song Ge waved his hands quickly and said with a smile.

Damn it.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to cross-shareholding, it’s Wang Jianlin who makes the decision. As the president of Wanda Film and Television, he is also very helpless.
