This time, Lionsgate Pictures was at a disadvantage in the negotiation with Gao Yan from the beginning. With the strong performance of "Qin Shi Mingyue - Part 1" at the global box office, the North American agency rights of "Qin Shi Mingyue - Part 2" also attracted attention.
Despite the prying eyes of countless agents, Lionsgate Pictures made a profit of 20 million U.S. dollars after just a little busy work. Although this profit is not much, but think about how much Lionsgate Pictures paid in total.
With so much revenue, it’s impossible not to be jealous, and in terms of distribution, although Lionsgate is also qualified for national distribution, how can it compare with those big companies, especially those who can compete with Lionsgate?
Disney, the parent company behind the industry, is comparable to large companies.
However, Lionsgate Pictures is not a vegetarian. Relying on the good foundation of having cooperated with Star Entertainment once, and finally making some concessions, after Star Entertainment's share reached 50%, Star Entertainment finally relented and continued to produce "Qin Shi".
The distribution rights for "Moon - Part 2" were given to Lionsgate Pictures.
Although "Qin Shi Mingyue - Part 2" has not been released yet, looking at the sweep of "Qin Shi Mingyue - Part 2" in Asia and "Qin Shi Mingyue - Part 1" being very popular in Europe and the United States as a basis, even if it has not been released yet,
But they are still very confident and believe that this can be successful.
Wang Zhengfei returned to Gao Yan's office. Gao Yan was reading a report. When he saw Wang Zhengfei coming in, he said, "You can sit down for a while!"
"Yes!" Wang Zhengfei nodded.
"By the way, how is the post-production of "Snow Leopard" going?" Gao Yan asked.
"The post-production of "Snow Leopard" is now less than half completed!" Wang Zhengfei said.
"Why is it so slow!" He is quite aware of the strength of Blue Sky Studio. The special effects of "Qin Shi Mingyue" have been praised by many people. They all say that Blue Sky Studio has extraordinary strength, but it is much faster than before.
Months have passed, and how come the stunt work for "Snow Leopard" is less than half completed? You must know that the number and demand for stunts in "Snow Leopard" are completely incomparable to "Qin Shi Mingyue".
"On the one hand, in addition to the special effects production, other post-production processes have to be completed at the same time. The special effects are the last, so we have to wait. Moreover, Blue Sky Studio is good at special effects such as gorgeous spell effects. As for this war
They are not good at rendering special effects in the film, and there are actually a lot of special effects in "Snow Leopard". When I shot this time, I adopted the same method as Hollywood, and shot the explosions and people separately. In this way, the effect was invisible.
It will increase the difficulty of rendering a lot of special effects. In short, it will take a while, but there is still enough time, and it will definitely be made in time!" Wang Zhengfei said, generally speaking, the review time of military films is relatively long, because generally military films, no matter what
There is no way to avoid the party and the army. If any content that damages the image of the army comes out, and the person in charge of the army comes to visit, then the Radio, Film and Television Bureau will wonder if it wants to work in China.
However, Wang Zhengfei is not worried. Firstly, he has plenty of time. Secondly, with Gao Yan’s relationship with the Radio, Film and Television Bureau, it is not difficult to get a priority review. Furthermore, the script of "Snow Leopard" has been reviewed before.
Yes, "Snow Leopard", which was filmed according to the script, should not have anything out of the ordinary, and it should not be difficult to pass the review after death. It is precisely because of this that Wang Zhengfei is particularly confident and should be able to release it in time for next year.
Complete all work before the due date.
"As long as it's in time!" Gao Yan asked casually. He didn't care about these matters. They were all left to Wang Zhengfei to take charge of. Once Wang Zhengfei was in charge of these matters, it was hard for him to interfere, in case there was anything wrong with Wang Zhengfei.
A good impression is not a good one. Secondly, he has many things to do on his own. There is no need to take care of everything. If he stretches his hands too far, he is not a qualified manager.
"If you need anything, just tell me directly!" Gao Yan said.
"Well, I understand!" Wang Zhengfei nodded.
"Also, there are some things about the concert, including inviting guests. Except for Man Ting being the first performer, have you thought about everything else?" Gao Yan asked, "This is all going to start soon. If we don't negotiate,
, it may be too late by then!”
"We might as well invite people from our own company to come up and sing a song or two. Since we've already asked Man Ting to sing, let's just do it together, without favoring anyone or neglecting anyone!"
Wang Zhengfei said with a smile, "Besides, as far as I'm concerned now, I don't need to rely on anyone to boost the box office of the concert!"
Gao Yan thought about it. With Wang Zhengfei's current fame, he didn't need to rely on the fame of other singers to boost the box office. Even if he was alone, it would be enough to fill up the concert venue. There was no need to rely on others, or even others.
He has to rely on his concerts to become famous. Both Wang Zhengfei and Gao Yan have this confidence.
"I think I'll just invite three or five friends and let's all have fun together!" Wang Zhengfei said. Since he doesn't need to rely on those people to increase the popularity of his concert, it's better to give this opportunity to others than to give it to others.
It is a win-win situation that Wang Zhengfei has been thinking about for a long time.
Wang Zhengfei just needs them to come on stage to sing a few songs for him during the concert so that he can take a breather. Nothing else is needed. Anyway, he believes that his popularity is still OK!
"Okay, since you said so, that's okay!" Gao Yan heard what Wang Zhengfei said and thought it made some sense, so he didn't refuse. Anyway, that's what it was. If he wanted to hire someone to support the event,
Of course, we need to negotiate in advance, but if we just invite good friends, it doesn't matter. Basically, we can be on call. If Wang Zhengfei can't even do this, then we can say that Wang Zhengfei has failed.
"It's up to you to decide on the rest of the clothes, styles, etc. If you have any questions, you can come to me at any time!" Gao Yan said.
"I have something to tell you!" Wang Zhengfei said.
"What happened?" Gao Yan asked.
"I want to take a leave in a few days!" Wang Zhengfei said.
