After Liu Xinxin was stunned, she took a deep breath. For some reason, she felt inexplicably excited and happy.
That guy actually represented his attitude directly. For Liu Xinxin, this was something she had never dreamed of. It was like one day, a man appeared in her life, standing at the front, saying arrogant but heart-warming words.
.
Only by knowing one's heart can one think and think about what she wants. If her manager Feng Qing had said those words, she would not have felt much, but at this moment, she felt satisfied.
"Mr. Yang, by your actions like this, aren't you turning away many enthusiastic moviegoers?" Unexpectedly, the reporter kept pestering him, and then asked with a grunt, this time the hostility was even stronger.
"Well..." Yang Di smiled and said nonchalantly: "Anyone who wants to watch the movie can see the high-definition genuine version. After it is released, we will cooperate with some video websites to provide a few yuan or even free resources!"
Everyone at the scene stared with wide eyes. Yang Di's statement undoubtedly caused another uproar.
No one thought that he would resolve the old reporter's difficulties so straightforwardly.
Cooperating with video websites is understandable for film producers and investors. Even in the context of the rapid development of domestic online movie viewing in recent years, every movie that has become a hit will try to find similar channels for licensing cooperation.
There is no other reason, naturally it is for the last round of making money.
In the past, releasing CDs after a new movie was released was undoubtedly a major money-making move. Usually, after the popularity of the movie subsided, it could still generate a lot of profits for investors.
However, in recent years, the domestic CD market has been declining day by day. Sales of not only records but also CDs of film and television works have been sluggish. Another ecological environment, although it started late, is developing like a wolf and a tiger.
That’s right, it’s network resource sharing!
At first, it was only digital music that started a craze, but gradually, digital film and television also grew with each passing day.
In the past, the main reason why netizens loved online resource sharing was that they could see in-demand resources for free online. Most of those resources came from illegal piracy. However, in the past two years, many high-end netizens have developed higher tastes and are no longer satisfied with pirated resources.
I also hope to see some high-definition high-quality resources on the Internet.
It can be said that the genuine resource membership experience or low-paying viewing that major video websites are keen to promote was born out of this kind of super flow. As early as four or five years ago, an investigation agency obtained market data and claimed that network resource authorization
, has become the second wave of money-making tools for film and television investors in addition to box office, and the corresponding advertising sponsorship and CD distribution are usually inferior.
This is a general trend. Investors who are confident in the quality of films will all look for this channel as soon as possible to make money again after the movie theater craze cools down.
Therefore, Yang Di's response is understandable.
But the question is, will any investor encourage movie fans to wait for low-cost or even free resources before the movie is released or even produced?
This can't help but make a group of veterans in the circle feel crazy. There are actually people in this world who have trouble with money.
No one underestimates the income from online channels, but obviously, compared with the box office, it is definitely a drop in the bucket.
At present, the key to judging the success or failure of a commercial film is the box office. There is no doubt about this. The Internet has been developed in China for more than ten years, but I have not heard of any blockbuster making big money through online channels.
Especially for commercial films with huge investment, the current online payment environment is not enough to recover too much cost, and it is completely impossible to make a profit.
It’s not that there are no movies that premiere on the Internet or are released simultaneously, but those works, without exception, are all produced with a low cost. Investments ranging from hundreds of thousands to several million are most common, and tens of millions are lackluster. More than three thousand
Wan, never before.
It is precisely based on these factors that in the past, when those investment tycoons were usually asked whether new films would be shared through channels on the Internet, they would either avoid talking about it, or do Tai Chi, and respond vaguely about the time for authorization of online channels, or even deliberately cause
It will take years of the monkey and horse to give the impression that the copyright will be handed over to the video website.
There is only one reason for doing this, and that is to drive movie fans to theaters as much as possible before this. Those big bosses naturally do not want to fall into the trap and make movie fans think that they can wait to watch online resources, which will lead to box office when the movie is hot.
Got hit.
In the words of those professionals, this is called tact. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that good films will eventually go online, but before they actually appear on genuine video websites, they have to make it impossible to watch the films without going to the theater.
impression.
Now this young man is lucky. No one has even dug this hole for him, but he has jumped in by himself, and he is still dancing with a smile on his face. This is really weird.
Even Feng Qing, Liu Xinxin's agent and director of the new film, frowned slightly.
Compared with the wonderful responses in the first two rounds, Yang Di's response was really inappropriate. After all, he was still too young. When forced by those veteran reporters, he went into a blind corner.
This press conference is very grand and will definitely be reported in major mainstream media, reaching an audience beyond ordinary people's imagination.
If those wavering movie fans hear these remarks, maybe there will be an embarrassing situation where it is well received but not popular. Some people will take great pains to wait to watch the high-definition genuine version online.
In the words of an insider, this is simply box office suicide!
However, Liu Xinxin, who was sitting next to Yang Di, didn't take it seriously. In other words, this beauty's original intention of investing in "Era of Gods" was really not to make herself richer.
She was able to fully understand Yang Di's response and agreed very much. When the surroundings were in an uproar, she picked up the microphone, smiled and supported: "What Mr. Yang said is what I want to say. Although the filming has not yet started,
But I would like to appeal to fans who support me to watch movies rationally and wait for discounts on ticket prices. If you are a student with no source of income, I have the same view as Mr. Yang. I hope you will not use your pocket money to act impulsively. Related
The online channels will not delay you for too long!”
This time, even some old Jianghu reporters present were stunned.
If this mysterious investor fell into the trap because he was young and energetic, and became a little arrogant after two rounds of wonderful performances, then if even this national idol, who has always been regarded as impeccable in the circle, expressed this attitude
, this thing is so shocking!
A high-cost movie that promises to break records. At the beginning of filming, the two major investors treated the box office revenue so lightly. Those words will definitely make many netizens like it later, but the problem is, this beauty still has
Mr. Yang, has he ever considered the consequences of saying such things?
What they are calling for is obviously contrary to the normal logic of movie profit. No matter how popular it is, if it really fails to gain traction by then, then in the eyes of industry insiders, this decision will definitely have a miserable ending.
Relatively speaking, investors don't care about the situation where they are scolded so badly but their box office is soaring, and they even like to see it.
"Haha, the mentality of Miss Liu and Mr. Yang is really admirable!" The old reporter, with a flash of schadenfreude in his eyes, immediately continued to show off his good tricks, digging a bigger hole for the film crew and these two people, with a smile.
asked: "Can Ms. Liu and Mr. Yang tell you when your film will be released through online channels?"
As soon as this question was raised, some neutral reporters present, or media people who had happily cooperated with Liu Xinxin in the past, secretly scolded the old guy for having bad intentions.
People have already given in to that point, so why should they be aggressive? Do they really want to lose all their money on this film?
Even the artists and creators on the stage had stiff expressions and were very angry, wanting to kick this old guy out.
"That bald guy is so bad. Asking such a question is clearly to put the crew into the most passive situation." On the other side of the stage, Li Xuanya angrily defended Yang Di and Liu Xinxin, and hummed: "Continue
If the date they give is too late, it will be interpreted by unscrupulous media as a slap in the face and lack of sincerity. But if the date is too close to the hot release stage, it is equivalent to trying to kill the box office. Moreover, the specific time is listed.
, it is self-destroying the box office and will lose many wavering fans..."
"Hmph! Who told that guy to be too honest and let others lead him by the nose?" Ning Yunzhu was also angry, but at the same time she was angry that the old reporter had deceived people, she was also a little angry that someone had been fooled easily.
And the same goes for Liu Xinxin. She usually deals with such big occasions calmly and shrewdly, so why is she so confused today?
The crazy girl feels very uncomfortable. These two are the people she likes. One is her idol and the other is her sweetheart...
"Maybe..." Su Yu, who was standing next to him, smiled elegantly and plainly: "Maybe they really don't care..."
Seeing someone being cheated, for some reason, this cold beauty felt very considerate. If Yang Di really wanted to do something thoughtful regardless of reward, and it seemed interesting, then he was destined to lose money.
She will happily support the money.
There was already quite a commotion on the stage. The producer, publicity manager, and director Feng Qing all wanted to interrupt. Even if it was a loss of face, they couldn't let the two of them sink into the pit anymore.
However, Liu Xinxin didn't take it seriously. She didn't seem to notice the manager's frequent glances. The smile on her bright and beautiful face was still there. She looked at Yang Di and looked at each other, as if they had a tacit understanding, and turned her eyes to the audience.
The reporter smiled and said: "Mr. Yang and I discussed privately that the specific online release time will be three months after the premiere!"
Wow~~~
The scene was in an uproar. After hearing the response of "three months", everyone in the circle gasped.
What a bold and courageous response!
This is the voice of everyone in the industry present. Three months seems like a long time, but in fact, it is already full of sincerity.
According to domestic practice, the hit stage of a new film usually lasts from twenty days to more than a month.
However, after the popular screening is over, it does not mean that the film will be completely removed from theaters. If it is a powerful film, major theaters will still continue to schedule the film, but they will reduce the number of films accordingly.
Compared with the amazing box office results during the hot movie stage, this period of decline in the eyes of industry insiders is also an important stage for making money.
At this stage, the situation of each film is different, but if it is a strong film, it is not difficult to maintain the gradual decline period for one month.
Even in some places with tight theater lines, the recession period will be longer, because movie fans will queue up to watch popular movies. The same is true in some cities with relatively backward economies, and subsequent low prices will
Promotional activities can attract many petty bourgeoisie to go to theaters to experience the thrill of the big screen.
So generally speaking, within three or four months after the release of a powerful new movie, theaters will still have room to make money.
The deadline given by Liu Xinxin effectively wiped out a large part of this remaining energy. At the same time, it also made the first three months particularly tense. If there was a box office failure during that period, it would not even be possible to make temporary changes.
.
Moreover, various media have already received rumors that the blockbuster film here, which is claimed to break the domestic investment record, will be released overseas.
Taking into account the considerable reality, this undoubtedly makes time more urgent. If genuine resources have appeared online in China, the box office results in foreign markets can be imagined.
Unless Liu Xinxin and others can make the film released simultaneously around the world, this will require an extremely broad network of contacts and a lot of hard work, which is by no means an easy task.
Reporters who were present at the scene all thought that Liu Xinxin would give four months to half a year to deal with the situation. Although this was a bit disappointing to netizens, they didn't have much of a position to criticize the situation.
But no one expected that after the bold Mr. Yang, this big star would also transform into a super celebrity, and he would dare to make such a promise in public.
It is conceivable that this sentence will become a major headline in many media pages tomorrow. While it will increase the popularity of the new film, it will also bury the double hidden dangers of falling into passivity and committing suicide at the box office.
And this result was actually caused by the two investors themselves, which is really unbelievable.
Faced with such a straightforward response from Liu Xinxin, even the old reporter was speechless. He did not do Tai Chi, nor did he deliberately mention an indefinite time frame, but directly gave a surprising "three-year release date".
Months" later.
What's so dark about this?
The subsequent press conference was undoubtedly much more interesting. After sitting down, many reporters couldn't wait to go back to work on their manuscripts. They had already taken out their mobile phones and started posting on Weibo.
Many people in the circle are also secretly well-known bloggers because they can usually get some first-hand inside information.
These days, being a celebrity on Weibo is also a profitable business. Some of them are not even journalists’ side jobs, but their main source of income.
Soon, even the video of the press conference was spread to the Internet. Some gossip media, which are known for their speed in breaking news, received fresh materials from reporters in front of them and rushed to catch up with the NBA game report in a few minutes.
I edited a series of reports and published them through the official Weibo and other social tools to attract people's attention.
For many fans who are eagerly anticipating idol Liu Xinxin's debut as an investor, these fresh gossips are undoubtedly crunchy, chicken-flavored, and have amazing spreading power.
