Chapter 498: The appeal is strong

"Generally speaking, it is very troublesome to distribute a Chinese-language film to a large number of theaters in Europe and the United States, because in addition to contacting the distributor, we also need to carry out a lot of preparation work, such as free trial screenings, a small number of

Screening these aspects will cost us a lot of time and energy, even films such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Heroes" are no exception!"

Jiang Zhiqiang held the microphone and talked, and he briefly talked about the steps and difficulties of contacting foreign distribution. Then he smiled and said: "But this time I was very lucky, really lucky, because when I met someone I know well,

The person in charge of the European and American theaters said: I have a great movie that I want to show in your theaters. Do you have any questions? As a result, the other party hurriedly asked me: "Jiang, is it the one about police and gangsters starring Chinese Tang Dynasty?"

Action movie?”

At this point, amid the soft whispers of the guests and the inexplicable excitement of the reporters, Jiang Zhiqiang nodded, looked at the smiling person, and said with great admiration: "Everyone guessed it right.

The film "A Better Man" is only one behind its Asian release date.

Within a few weeks, it was released all over the world. This is indeed because of one of the starring roles of the film, Tang Xiaosha and Tang Sheng, because he also has strong appeal in Europe and the United States. At least the audience of this film - countless young people know it.

He even likes and worships him."

At this time, the discussion in the audience suddenly became louder, and the reporters all pointed their cameras at the smiling person, and the shutter clicked fiercely, and the sound of snapping photos could not be stopped.

.

"Fuck me! Although I have known for a long time that he is very attractive, I never thought that he can be so attractive! No wonder the global industry leader like "The Hollywood Reporter" has shouted out the slogan of a salary of 20 million U.S. dollars + profit sharing for him! This is

He is indeed extremely powerful and domineering!"

A reporter from the mainland murmured to himself. He looked so excited and kept saying: "This is called a world-class superstar. This is the real appeal that can influence the global market!"

"It used to be Bruce Lee, but now it's Tang Xiaosa. Why can there always be world-class superstars in the Chinese film industry? Why has our Empire of Japan never been able to go out of Asia and influence the world in terms of film actors? Our film box office market ranks first

Our economic strength ranks second in the world, but why can’t we surpass Hong Kong in terms of commercial films?”

A reporter from the entertainment section of Japan's "Yomiuri Shimbun" murmured in Japanese in a very frustrated voice. How he hoped that one day a real world-class superstar in the entertainment industry would appear in his country!

Although Japan also has two world-renowned great directors, Akira Kurosawa and Hayao Miyazaki, in terms of general influence, the great directors are not as good as the great stars. This is just like basketball stars and sports teams. Everyone knows Jordan,

But few people know that he started his career with the Bulls.

"Oh my god, this is a real world-class star! His name alone can get European and American theaters to agree to release movies. Isn't this a clear manifestation of his appeal? When will the Republic of Korea have such a superstar?

?”

Korean KBS reporters are also very confused. Although they always refer to their domestic first-line stars and groups as Asian superstars and Asian genius groups, to be honest, at least so far, South Korea has not really had any well-deserved Asian stars.

A superstar, let alone a world superstar.

If you don’t believe it, look at their salary. Can it be compared with Jet Li’s US$12 million and Jackie Chan’s US$15 million + box office dividends?

Of course, if you want to compare at this time, you have to compare with a certain "pervert" who was publicly called out by the "Hollywood Report" that he should get 20 million US dollars + dividends.

"The mainlanders have produced another international king. It seems that the Hong Kong entertainment industry has indeed declined in recent years! Except for Xie Tingfeng and Edison Chen, there is not even a decent new generation actor, let alone an international king!

"

Journalists in Hong Kong and Taiwan are also very helpless, because compared to the mainland, it is easier for Hong Kong and Taiwan to become emperors and superstars, because the media in these two places are more in line with international standards, and they are also good at making stars. They are also popular in the Asian entertainment industry.

More high-end and elegant (Hong Kong and Taiwan artists are indeed worth more than mainland artists, I don’t understand why)... Unfortunately, with so many favorable conditions, a new king has still not been discovered. Only Jay Chou has this potential, but...

Just potential.

In fact, after listening to Jiang Zhiqiang's narration, it was not the reporters who were most shocked, because at most they just sighed, and then nothing more happened. After all, it had nothing to do with them, and they were not celebrities.

, as long as there is news.

The people who were really shocked were the big stars, film and television company bosses, and some directors who came to the scene.

Because before hearing what Jiang Zhiqiang said, the most they knew was that Tang Xiaosha seemed to be very popular in Europe and the United States. There were hundreds of thousands of purely official fans in Europe and the United States, and then there were other, more specific ones.

Things that everyone doesn’t understand very well.

But now, after actually hearing the emotional description of Jiang Zhiqiang, the "Chinese-language film promoter", everyone couldn't help but take a breath, and finally had a preliminary estimate of someone's strong appeal in Europe and the United States.

.

Your sister, just an actor's name can open the door to theaters. Isn't this just like the 1980s and 1990s, when Hong Kong films were the most popular?

At that time, as soon as the theaters in Southeast Asia heard that a movie had any of the three, including Chow Yun-fat, Fang Jackie Chan, and Stephen Chow, then it was OK. There was no need to say anything, let alone arrange a screening, and find the theater.

It’s okay to invest by pulling the line!

Undoubtedly, after changing the direction and comparing it like this, someone's box office appeal is immediately apparent! People in the industry also immediately understood that trains are not pushed, and mountains are not piled up.

"I'm sorry, no wonder such a stupid movie can be so popular in Europe and the United States, and it always makes headlines! This j8 is like finding Tom Cruise or Johnny Depp to play the leading role.

, it’s hard not to attract attention!”

"Damn it, if this kid is really so attractive, then if I was willing to spend a lot of money to invite him to make a movie, would it be so popular? With 200 million US dollars worldwide, even after splitting, at least there will be

60 million US dollars, even if you give him 200

With a salary of 00,000 US dollars, I can also make a net profit of 40 million US dollars, and then there is DVD income and copyright income. If you calculate it like this, it seems that there is still some headway! Hey, this must be studied. At most, several companies can cooperate.

If you lose, you won’t die!”

"Oh my God, is he really that strong? If I could work with this guy and play a couple once, would he be as famous in Hollywood as the current Xie Tingfeng and Wu Jing? This kind of opportunity... is too rare.

Now, I wonder who will become the first 'dashing girl'?!"

"I'm a fool, Lao Jiang, don't praise me to death like this!"

The guests at the scene were all kinds of excited and emotional, but someone sitting on the podium could hardly calm down. He felt like there were nails sitting on his buttocks and had a look of constipation on his face.

Damn, if the name is really so useful, why didn't "A Better Day" have a simultaneous global release? Why didn't the theaters strongly demand that I go to the local area to interact with the fans?

Your sister, theater chains in Europe and the United States are not as superstitious about celebrities as they are in China. They will still do trial screenings when they should do trial screenings. They will never release large-scale screenings for small-scale and long-term screenings, because they are super formal.

European and American theater operators will have a pre-evaluation of the movies they schedule. For example, if the expectations are high for A-level or above big-cast movies, and if the quality is good during the movie viewing, then everyone will release it on a large scale across the country (global).

If it is a B-level movie, due to the lack of budget, the quality is usually not very good, and there are few big stars participating. Therefore, the market prospect is not very good, so when it is scheduled to be released, it usually will not be the United States 2000

+The above theaters will release it on a large scale, but it will be arranged in a few to hundreds of theaters first.

Therefore, in Europe and the United States, which have strict systems, it is impossible (rarely) to release a film on a large scale without looking at the quality. This is what makes someone blush the most.

But then again, no matter what, Jiang Zhiqiang, a well-known film promoter in the industry, can actually fabricate such an awesome story in front of so many industry insiders and media reporters, and the protagonist is still himself.

It also makes someone feel satisfied.

Because he understands the principle of carrying people in a sedan chair. Even famous figures in the industry have personally admitted that his appeal is extremely powerful. But what about the ordinary people in the circle? What about the onlookers and fans outside the circle?

Therefore, he is actually very grateful to Jiang Zhiqiang, and he seems to understand why this little old man with a humble appearance can actually be synonymous with "Chinese movie promoter". The reason is very simple, he knows how to do favors!

Just like now, he has served as a living advertisement for himself, so will he turn a blind eye and ignore him? Or even stand up to refute him with great enthusiasm?

Brother Xiaosha pondered for a moment, then took the initiative to stand up and said with a smile: "Jiang Sheng is too exaggerated. I am not that famous in Europe and the United States! The main reason is that Jiang Sheng's relationship network and business capabilities are too strong!"

Jiang Zhiqiang laughed and seemed very happy, but a hint of approval flashed in the corner of his eyes. (To be continued...)
