Chapter 661: Start Propaganda, Budget One Billion
After Tanabe vented for five minutes, his anger calmed down a little and he said, "Tell me, what are you going to do next?"
Sonoda said cautiously: "Mr. Tanabe, although the top ten companies have returned the money, it does not affect our cooperation with them. After all, they are also shareholders of the theater chain. In order to obtain greater benefits,
Future movies will definitely be screened in our Soli Cinemas."
Tanabe glanced at him and said, "Tell me, what happened within the Department of Culture yesterday afternoon? Why have these film companies changed so drastically?"
Sonoda replied: "Don't worry, the news will be available within half an hour at most..."
Before he finished speaking, his cell phone rang.
Sonoda glanced at Tanabe and said, "The news is here."
"Then pick it up quickly!" Tanabe urged.
Three minutes later, Sonoda hung up the phone, his face extremely pale.
This time he messed up things and completely messed up the theater chain's affairs.
Tanabe looked at Sonoda with burning eyes and said, "What's wrong?"
"Pfft!" Sonoda immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Mr. Tanabe, I'm sorry."
Tanabe frowned and said, "Tell me, what exactly happened? Tell me honestly and clearly immediately."
Sonoda did not dare to omit anything and told all the information he knew.
"Pa!" After hearing this, Tanabe became furious and slapped Sonoda hard in the face. His face was red and swollen, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, but Sonoda kept wiping it.
Don't even dare to rub it.
"Idiot!" Tanabe cursed loudly: "How can there be such a stupid guy like you in the world, and you haven't discovered such a big loophole before? Sonoda, you should commit seppuku!"
Although Zhang Xiao did not get a stake in Soli Cinemas, he obtained a huge schedule of movies every year through the top ten film companies, with an average of more than three movies released a month. This is simply speechless.
Suo Li spent a huge amount of money and worked hard to build the theater chain, which was like becoming Zhang Xiao's wage earner. Not to mention the headquarters, even Tanabe himself couldn't accept it after knowing about this incident.
Thinking of this, Tanabe kicked Sonoda again.
Sonoda could only hold his head with his hands and let Tanabe beat him up. He was very familiar with Tanabe's temper. As long as the other party got angry and vented his anger, then his matter would be over.
If you keep silent, then you may lose Xiao Ming.
After a few minutes of punching and kicking, Tanabe seemed a little tired and yelled: "Get out of here."
Sonoda endured the pain in his body, stood up as quickly as possible, poured a cup of tea for Tanabe diligently, and said: "Mr. Tanabe, I'm so sorry, I never thought that Zhang Xiao would actually use this trick."
Michio Tanabe glared at him angrily and said: "How did the martial arts company in Hollywood fall into the hands of Zhang Xiao? Let's learn from the past. If you want to compete with Zhang Xiao, you must make sure you don't have any loopholes."
"That's what Mr. Tanabe said!" Sonoda lowered his head, his face full of cervix, but he was cursing in his heart.
His plan was once shown to Tanabe. After Tanabe read it, he praised him very much. But now something happened, Tanabe put all the responsibilities on Sonoda.
Naturally, he felt extremely aggrieved.
Of course, he could only think about these things in his mind. If he really said them out, he probably wouldn't survive tomorrow.
After Tanabe pondered for a moment, he said: "Don't worry about theaters for the time being. The most important thing for us now is the release of "Thunder". This action blockbuster is our first global movie in the true sense.
The headquarters takes the movies that are released very seriously."
"We don't care about other places, but in China, we must beat Zhang Xiao's "Zhu Xian" at the box office. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" Sonoda replied: "The leading actors in Mr. Tanabe's "Thunderbolt" all have huge fan bases in China. I think it is very necessary to invite them to come and promote it. Otherwise, with Zhang Xiao's influence in China,
It’s very difficult for us to compete with him.”
Tanabe thought for a while and said: "I will discuss this matter with Colombia's CEO Walker. I believe he will not let go of China, the world's second largest vote bank."
Sonoda nodded and continued to ask: "Mr. Tanabe, is it time for us to conduct a large-scale promotion of "Thunder Explosion"?"
Tanabe stretched out a finger and said: "One billion, I want all the first, second and third tier brooding people in China to have a huge poster of our "Thunder Explosion", and the trailer will be on the three major Chinese cities.
It is the most conspicuous position on the homepage of the video website, and news topics are on the front pages of major entertainment websites every day.”
"In a word, wherever Chinese movie fans can see it, there must be a promotional poster for our "Thunder", do you understand?"
It has to be said that Suo Li is indeed very wealthy. He has to invest one billion US dollars in promotional expenses in China alone. If other regions are included, it is estimated to reach 300 million US dollars.
Tanabe's work efficiency is also very fast. In just two days, the trailer of "Thunder Explosion" has been listed in the key recommendation columns of three other domestic video websites except Sunny Video Website.
The most prominent position on the homepage.
The starring roles are all Hollywood superstars, including Statham, Dwayne Johnson, Tom Cruise, Keanu Reeves, Will Smith's martial arts tough guy, and two girls, Angelina Jolie and Kristen Stewart.
.
Why did the production cost of "Thunderbolt" reach nearly 500 million U.S. dollars? In addition to the huge scene, the most important thing was the remuneration of these seven superstars.
Everyone wants 25 million US dollars, plus a 1.5% box office share, which is simply terrifyingly high.
Of course, the effect of "Thunder Blast" is still very good. It has a lot of high-end equipment, even J-ships and submarines. Compared with the scale of "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Operation Red Sea"
Still need to fight a lot.
It can be seen that Suoli really wanted to use this film to announce his arrival to the world film market.
After the trailer of "Thunder" came out, it caused quite a stir on the Chinese Internet.
There's no way around it, this lineup is so awesome that many fans have forgotten where they stand.
"The combination of seven top Hollywood stars, this is too fierce!"
"Five tough guys plus two girls, this lineup is simply too luxurious."
"Judging from the trailer, the quality of "Thunder Explosion" seems to be no worse than Xiao Shen's "Zhu Xian"!"
"It seems like this movie is going to wipe out the film industry."
"Xiao Shen will face the most powerful opponent in history this time in "Zhu Xian". I wonder if Xiao Shen can win!"
"To be honest, I am a little undecided about these two movies now. I don't know which movie to support."
"I definitely support "Zhu Xian", but if "Thunder Explosion" is really good, maybe I will also go and watch it."
