Looking at Kong Xue's high-spirited back, Su Ze felt helpless.
I had known for a long time that such a day would come. After all, my family's goal was to develop the entertainment industry, so it was an accident that I got to where I am today.
For the group, actor Su Ze is a breakthrough, quickly opening up the situation as a practitioner and establishing a foothold. It seems that Kanazawa is just a personal studio established three years ago?
Just the tip of the iceberg!
Although I didn't ask specifically, my mother must have established other companies, most likely in the investment field. I have been working hard outside for the past three years, and Mr. Qin has not been idle.
Of course, I don’t have to worry about these things. It’s not my turn to worry about it for the time being. Since I have chosen an actor, I will do my best. As for the rest...
whatever!
When Kong Xue came to the general manager's office, Mr. Qin had already expected it: "He agreed?"
"He is worthy of being the successor of the Su family." Kong Xuecai said, "Great!"
Qin Jinfeng glanced at it, saying that this flattery was a bit low, put down the information and said: "Are you going to do this?"
"China Film Distribution, Huaxia Distribution, Huayi, Xingmei Pictures, Enlight Pictures, Bona Pictures, Anle Pictures, LeTV Pictures..."
“There are only a handful of capable domestic issuance companies, and we don’t consider local ones, so I targeted four at that time.”
"China Film, Xingmei, Ray, Bona!"
Qin Jinfeng listened. After more than three years, he was no longer a newbie. He was well-known in the industry. Now the four leading names in Kong Xue's mouth were the top capital in the domestic entertainment industry.
Their goals are also theirs!
"China Film and China Film and Television, distribution companies with state-owned backgrounds, mainly handle the agency distribution of imported and domestic films. Their work methods are quite regular, especially Han Sanye of China Film, who is a well-known figure in the industry."
"Li Changtian of Enlight Pictures is also very qualified. The model is a distribution matrix, that is, there are local distribution managers in n cities. When the film is released, he will communicate with the local studios, etc."
"As for Fatty Bonayu?"
Kong Xue said with a half-smile, "He is a wonderful man!"
"So you chose him in the end." Qin Jinfeng had dealt with Fatty Yu and understood what Kong Xue meant, and said with a smile: "It's very ambitious."
Kong Xue smiled and said nothing, saying everything without saying anything. In the process of a film from project establishment to final implementation, the producer is the investor, distributor, and theater chain are the three most important links in the industry chain.
It's like Smart invested in a factory and worked hard on research and development for many years to develop a high-quality, low-price, and comprehensive TV called Nezha.
Then he entrusted the big salesman Guangguang Brother to help him promote it. It would be best to sell it in the Wanda Department Store next door where people come and go.
Guangguang Brother is the so-called distributor, and Smart and Wanda Department Store play the roles of producer and exhibitor respectively.
In other words, Dasheng is the father of the funder, the party responsible for providing financial support for the product, or playing a leading role in the investment and financing stages.
Guangguang Brother is more inclined to act as a bridge between the film studio and the theater chain. They are all well-known figures in the industry. Whether it is through connections or backgrounds, in short, they can handle the theater chain.
The three theater chains are getting stronger and stronger. There is no way, but behind all the national theater chains are top bosses, such as Lao Wang and Lao Xu, the billionaire conglomerate.
Next is the distributor, such as China Film and Television. Needless to say the background, they basically stick to their word.
The last one is the investor, and of course there are three, six, and nine levels. Theaters and distributors will also invest, and they may even invest, distribute, and release the film themselves, so that the money does not go to outsiders.
Isn’t it delicious to eat alone?
Not to mention the theater chain, The Invisible Guest is a work invested by Kanazawa Studio. The main troubles are concentrated in distribution. There are more and more ways to play, but there are mainly four types.
The first is agency. Da Smart entrusted Brother Guangguang to help sell products in the market and paid a salary in advance. Brother Guangguang was paid no matter how much he sold.
How much depends on specific factors, such as investment scale, director and cast, subject matter, channels, special effects...
The second is to buy out, mainly for foreign movies, directly buy out the copyright with a lump sum of money. I am smart and don’t worry about how I operate and how much I can make in the end. Whether I make or lose is all mine.
For example, of course there are only a handful of legendary films that can be enjoyed in this category. For a long time, China Film and Television was the only one.
The third is the splitting of accounts, which is also the most popular method. In theory, the studio can get 47% of the share, and the majority will always belong to the theater chain.
But there are a lot of miscellaneous fees. After deductions, the 35% you get in the end is a high-priced incense, and you have to wait half a year for the money to arrive. There are a lot of tricks.
The last step is betting, which is also the most exciting game in recent years. Negotiate and determine the minimum price corresponding to the box office, as well as the split ratio for different box office income levels.
Since it was a bet, it was mutual. This time it was Kanazawa who took the initiative to play with Bona and made money by betting on invisible customers, so he had to provide the chips himself.
If it's Wu Jing's latest masterpiece, it's probably Bona Pianpidian who came here to force money, hoping to get the exclusive distribution rights. It's very simple for the store to bully the customer and the customer to bully the store.
Of course, there are many specific details, and there are many people who can play tricks. The reason why I chose Bona is because of longer-term considerations.
China Film Group is awesome, but Mr. Han is used to being bossy. It is difficult to communicate with someone who is not a veteran. This is the biggest problem.
Guangguang Li Changtian is easy to talk to, but he is getting old, and he is more than conservative and not aggressive enough. Kanazawa is in the golden period of being aggressive and enterprising, so he cannot find an old man to hold him back.
The big king and the little king are capable and have a dark heart, but it is a pity that they have offended too many people. Now that the wall is down and everyone is pushing against them, it is good to be able to survive, but there is no need to talk about the future.
Beiwen has suddenly emerged in recent years and has a good development momentum. However, after all, its roots are too shallow, its cooperation partners are limited, and it is not suitable for long-term cooperation.
After much selection, only Bona was suitable. Fatty Yu was just fifty, ambitious and had good skills. His ability to start from scratch and work hard till now proves everything.
In particular, it has a very good relationship with the Hong Kong community. Bona is responsible for the exclusive distribution of 90% of Hong Kong films. It has become prosperous in the past ten years, surpassing Huayi, and even surpassing its big brother Guangzhou Film and Television.
What’s even more exciting is that Fatty Yu likes to invest by himself. In recent years, there have been many successful cases, and the cumulative box office has exceeded 100 billion!
No matter the strength or goals, they coincide with Kanazawa, which is why Qin Jinfeng is optimistic about the other party. This is just the first time for the invisible guest to cooperate. We all have to explore the road, and there will be plenty of time in the future.
"Then let's do it." Qin Jinfeng stood up and ordered: "You can have a bigger appetite, don't be petty, and show sincerity in our first cooperation."
"Our Su family is not short of money!"
Kong Xue's fighting spirit was high again, and her blood boiled instantly. This is called a boss, and this is called grandeur!
Watching Kong Xue leave, Qin Jinfeng was very happy, not because of the bet, but because his precious son had matured.
From the moment she challenged Su Minghua in the study room, even her mother never expected that she would be able to reach this point in just three and a half years?
