Reborn As The Billionaire National Husband, The Boss Of Populus Euphratica!

soon.

The release date of "Nightclub" is finally confirmed.

In order to avoid competing with those blockbusters, Wang Cong chose a time slot that no one was competing for, mid-December.

There were no competitive films released at this time, and the schedules were relatively free.

to be honest.

The competitiveness of the movie "Nightclub" is really low.

The leading actors, including Mrs. Li, have little box office appeal.

Neither Xu Shanzheng nor Zhang Jiayi has reached the peak of their careers at this time.

One thing to say.

When Wang Cong decided to invest in this drama, Huang Zhenqi thought he might be crazy.

But I have to admit it.

The final effect of the movie is very good.

At least in Huang Zhenqi's opinion, this is a very complete movie.

Any time a well-executed movie is worth watching.

and.

The most important thing is.

The investment in the entire movie was very small, less than three million.

In other words, as long as the movie's box office improves slightly, it will not lose money.

This is the greatest confidence of Huang Zhenqi and Wang Cong.

Speaking of the domestic movie box office sharing system, Wang Cong thinks it is actually very interesting.

Movies released in the country can be divided into three categories: domestic films, co-production films, and imported films. Regarding the issue of box office accounting, there is no essential difference between domestic films and co-produced films, while imported films should be treated separately.

First of all, the ticket sales and box office revenue of all films released in the mainland, whether domestic films, co-productions or imported films, must be included in the national film ticketing comprehensive information management system designated by the Office of the National Film Industry Development Special Fund Management Committee.

This system must be installed in any cinema across the country, and the real-time box office data of each film will be aggregated to the system in real time. The data on this website is the only basis for the division of accounts by producers, distributors, theater chains, cinemas and other parties.

The total box office of all films must first pay 5% of the special funds for the film industry to the Special Fund Office, which will be paid monthly by each cinema to the Special Fund Office and turned over to the national treasury.

Secondly, the total box office of all films is subject to a special business tax of 3.3%, which is to pay various taxes to the national tax and local tax, and the theater will directly deduct and pay it from the total box office.

For example, assuming the total box office of a certain movie is one billion yuan, then only 917 million box office can be divided.

In addition, the theater chain will also give China Film a distribution agency fee of 1% to 3%.

The reasons for this are complex.

On the one hand, this is a historical issue.

In the early 1990s, when digital technology replaced film, most theaters across the country did not have the funds to replace digital movie projectors. China Film Digital invested in the equipment upgrade, which made an indelible contribution to the domestic film digitization process.

To this day, at least 70% of theaters across the country still use digital projectors from China Film Digital, so it takes a commission.

On the other hand, at least half of the country's digital movies are distributed by China Film Digital.

Moreover, China Film Digital Cinema Co., Ltd. is the largest state-owned cinema chain with the largest number of cinemas.

It is precisely because of the above two reasons that every film has to pay a medium agency fee.

With the deepening of the reform of the film system and the liberalization of the film market, private and private capital have become more and more active. Private film companies such as Yuanda, Huayi, and Guangxian often do not cooperate with China Film Digital to distribute films on their own.

Of course this is possible and feasible.

However, no matter who distributes it, the distributor must first make a master disk of the film, then use the master disk to mass-produce multiple digital copies and create a key at the same time.

Finally, express delivery is sent to each theater chain, and each theater chain distributes it to its affiliated theaters.

Some of the most popular theaters with the highest box office output can directly receive mailed copies from the distributor without having to forward them through the theater chain.

After these theaters receive the digital copies, they can log on to China Film's official website to download the secret key, and the theater projector server can decrypt the digital copies within a specific period and realize playback.

Although many software can produce master tapes, since most cinema projectors are invested by China Film Digital, it does not recognize those produced by other units, especially private enterprises.

In addition to these, the remaining box office is shared by cinemas, 50%, 7% by theater chains, and 43% shared by producers and distributors.

If the cinema and the theater chain are the same company, then it will have 57% of the box office.

If the producer and distributor are the same company, then it will have 43% of the box office.

If the distributor promises to guarantee distribution or buyout distribution, then there will be no agency distribution fees. The distributor will directly pay the film producer the guarantee fee or buyout fee. All box office sales will belong to the distributor, and it will be responsible for its own profits and losses. It has nothing to do with the producer. .

Many movies require large investments, and the producers alone cannot afford to invest, so they invite multiple companies to jointly invest.

How multiple investors share the box office depends on the status, priority, and share of each investor in the total investment. The industry is called the lead investor and the follow-up investor.

The main investor is the controlling party, and it can only be one company.

The follow-up investor is the investor, often multiple investors, and the lead investor is the producer that the issuer faces.

No matter what, only those who actually invest money can be considered investors. Companies that do not contribute money in the form of money are not investors. Many movies have multiple co-production and co-production companies in their titles. Not all of them may be counted as investors. Some are just false names used by the producers to promote distribution.

In order to make responsibilities and rights clear and to facilitate operation, no matter how many investors there are, the producer in the distribution stage must be one, and the distributor selected by the producer must also be one, but the distributor can choose multiple theaters.

Just like the drama "Nightclub".

The producer and distributor are Yuanda Film and Television, but through Wang Cong's contact, more than six theater chains will show the film.

This is why Wang Cong agreed to the harsh conditions of those theater chains.

In any case, if one more theater can be released, the box office of the movie will increase significantly. As an investor, I will definitely not suffer a loss.

certainly.

There is a premise for doing this, because he knows that the movie will definitely do well at the box office.

The advantage of foresight is here.

In fact, whether it is a domestic film, a co-production, or an imported film, it is always the exhibitors, that is, theater chains and theaters, especially theaters, that account for the majority of the domestic film box office.

For a long time, senior people from the production side, including many domestic directors and producers, have been critical of this, trying to increase the studio's account sharing ratio, and even going to court.

Zhou Xingxing even had a lawsuit with Huayi Brothers.

However, it did not change the overall situation in the end.

This is the reason why the old state-owned film studios have poor performance and even closed down one after another, while theater chains, especially theaters, are booming in business. This is why film and television oligarchs such as Yuanda strive to expand their own theater chains and theaters.

to be honest.

It’s really profitable to be a theater operator!

The reason why Wang Cong is confident is because he is backed by the theater chain of Yuanda Group. In any case, the movies he invests in will definitely not have no place to be released.

"Nightclub" is about to be released, so Huang Zhenqi is naturally busy.

On the contrary, Wang Cong has been free these days.

Zhao Liying is still being tortured by the tutor. Now she feels like crying when she sees the textbook.

But there is no way.

Just having acting skills is of no use. If she can't pass the cultural class, her desire to get admitted to the Chinese Opera or Beijing Film Academy is just a fool's errand.

In this case, Wang Cong had no choice but to ask the tutor to teach her in a cram-like manner.

Lying in bed.

When he was bored, he started texting Li Xiaoqin.

This was the call he got when he went to visit the crew of "A Dream of Red Mansions".

When she met Yang Mi for the first time before, she didn't go because she wasn't feeling well, but this time, Li Shaohong took the initiative to introduce her to Wang Cong.

According to Li Shaohong, Li Xiaoqin is a descendant of Kun Opera, a national intangible cultural heritage. If she hadn't been dragged into filming, he would have followed the path of an artist.

Wang Cong naturally believes in this.

the reason is simple.

Because Wang Cong did collaborate with Li Xiaoqin in his previous life and heard her sing, so he is a really capable person.

and.

Wang Cong has also watched many TV series starring her.

I know that this girl is not bad. Although she is not a big hit, she is at least one of the more outstanding ones among the Xiaohuadan.

To know.

In Wang Cong's era, traffic was king. It was not easy for a Hua Dan who still had resources after many years of debut.

That means that even if she is not a first-tier artist, she is at least firmly in the second-tier.

After all, not everyone is named Li Yitong.

That one is really weird.

It has been many years since his debut but he has not had any notable roles.

The key point is that there are at least a dozen TV series featuring female leads released on the air throughout the year. Although none of them are popular, she has endless resources.

Of course, this person claimed to the outside world that the film crew chose him because he was not paid well and was not pretentious.

But in fact, in a place as real as the entertainment industry, there are so many cheap and easy-to-use actors, why should I only use you?
