Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang
Chapter 130 Shaw Brothers' Dilemma
"Mr. Joe, can you ask why you want to show this film on our Shaw Brothers?"
Qiao Feng went to Shao to find Shao Yifu, and was treated completely opposite to Jiahe. When he said that, Shao Yifu did not stumble and agreed directly. After agreeing, Shao Yifu smiled and asked the question in his heart.
"According to Mr. Qiao’s habit, he always cooperates with our Shaw Brothers for one part, then works with Jiahe for another part, and then works with our Shaw Brothers. Why is there an exception this time? Mr. Zombie will not say anything. I have already collaborated with us on Shaw Brothers for a film, and it is still being filmed. How come the film shot in the mainland will also be shown on our Shaw Brothers?"
"Haha, it's nothing, like Mr. Zombie, Jiahe doesn't give you a schedule, so you can only find Mr. Shao for your cooperation." Qiao Feng is not afraid to understand Shao Yifu.
The fact that he was rejected by Jiahe couldn't be kept secret, and he could find out after a little inquiries. He was not afraid of what would happen if Shao Yifu knew.
When will the card movie be released? Or sit down and negotiate terms?
This is something Jiahe Qiaofeng may be worried about, because Jiahe does not worry about film sources, and does not worry about not having a good film source. Just like He Guanchang said, his family is big and there are so many satellite companies underneath, and he always has soup.
In this situation, Jiahe might, or it will definitely take advantage of the fire, take advantage of the opportunity to better share the ratio, etc., otherwise it will get you in the row. Because they have the confidence to do so, you have to agree when there is no other choice. , Otherwise they will not be able to show your film, or not arrange the schedule for you, anyway, they have other good films to replace.
But Shaw did not have the confidence. In the past two years, there will be no Qiao Feng's film to top it. Shaw, the dominant Hong Kong film industry in the 1960s and early 1970s, even has no fig leaf.
Except for Qiao Feng's films, and a few films of Shaw Brothers, the other Shaw Brothers' films are all filming and losing one. If you don't film it, you can't do it, because the theater is empty, you don't make the film. , Self-sufficient and no other film source, that is, waiting for the cinema to lose money.
Therefore, Shaw’s situation is to lose money by filming, but you can lose a little less. If you don’t lose money by filming, you can lose more.
What lingering breath is talking about is the current Shaw Brothers.
Such Shaw Brothers has no right to reject Qiao Feng's films, unless Shao Yifu said that I just don't make money and don't want to arrange films for you, then Qiao Feng has nothing to say.
But Shao Yifu will not do things that are harmful to others.
Quick Gunner Quick Gunner, Shao Yifu didn't vote for a penny in this film, but the proportion he gave was calculated according to the proportion of Shaw's investment, that is, five to five, and the theaters are divided into half of the box office. Qiao Feng's investment People share the other half.
There is no distribution share, not even the cost of publicity, but it is just broadcast a preview on the TV station, and it is not much money, much less than the income from it. Therefore, Shao Yifu is rarely generous.
"The Quick Gunner The Quick Gunner was released on July 1, a week earlier than Golden Harvest's magical plan, the Five Lucky Stars, and then the hero's character was released on August 1. This way, it will be attacked back and forth, and Jiahe will have a big somersault." Joe Feng told Shao Yifu his plan.
"In this way, Mr. Qiao's film will occupy the entire summer file of Shaw Brothers." Shao Yifu hesitated.
Giving Qiao Feng the schedule of one film and the schedule of two films is not a concept at all. There are only a few of the best schedules in a year. The best Spring Festival schedule at the beginning of the year is Qiao Feng’s, and now even the summer schedule is given. Qiao Feng, so that the directors of Shaw Brothers can't get a good schedule, they will make opinions.
"Mr. Shao, with all due respect, in terms of the quality of the movies your Shaw brothers are producing now, the summer vacation file for them is nothing more than your Shaw brothers gave them money to Jiahe and the Golden Princess. Because your film must not have any box office, and finally paid It's not all cheaper than rivals."
Qiao Feng felt a bit too straightforward.
"Really?" Shao Yifu's eyes lit up.
The heroic character Qiao Feng has invested 1 million Hong Kong dollars in the script, which accounts for 20% of the total box office share. Originally, Qiao Feng had to spend 20% of the total box office with a single script. It was Fang Yihua who did not agree to make another investment. Million.
At that time, I wondered why Qiao Feng dared to have such a high share ratio. Although he said that the box office would be very high, he might get a new box office record.
It’s not until now from Qiao Feng’s mouth that he heard his box office expectations for the hero’s true character, Shao Yifu knew why. He knew that Qiao Feng’s expectations were very accurate. If nothing else, he took the box office of last year’s Xinshu Mountain Swordsman and Interstellar Blunt Tire. Almost Qiao Feng was stuck on the line to predict.
Moreover, Qiao Feng thought that predicting the box office of his own films was lower. According to this rule, it means that the local box office of the hero is likely to be more than 30 million.
"Really." Qiao Feng nodded affirmatively.
"Okay, let's set the time as Mr. Qiao said." Shao Yifu no longer hesitated, he agreed, paused, and said with a smile: "The old man would like to see the movie that he pushed away. What kind of expression would Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang look like when it was terrible?"
Shao Yifu was full of resentment when he said this. Qiao Feng thought, Shao Yifu must be reminded of Li Xiaolong and Xu Guanwen who were not valued by him when they arrived at Jiahe and beat his Shaw Brothers miserably. His face looked ugly.
"I want to see too." Qiao Feng echoed with a smile.
"By the way, I haven't congratulated Mr. Joe for the big box office investment in the U.S. movie. He invested seven or eight million dollars and got a box office of more than 40 million dollars. Mr. Joe made a lot of money. Oh, no overseas. When it’s released, you can make a lot of money after the overseas release. There will be such a good opportunity in the future, Mr. Joe, don’t forget to bring us Shaw Brothers."
"It must be." Qiao Feng smiled and nodded.
...............
This time I came to Shao Yifu, Qiao Feng not only settled on the schedule of film releases, but also took away his share of the profits of Mr. Zombie’s screenings in Nanyang and other places.
