my time as a director

Huang Bo alone may not have Shen Tengqiang in the field of comedy, but Xu Zheng has left the 囧 series, and Wang Baoqiang can't hold Shen Teng apart from "Detective Chinatown".

It is not an exaggeration to describe Shen Teng as reaching the sky in one step.

Such an actor, and not limited to a certain series, did not rely on a certain director.

If the deed of sale was signed, two or three billion yuan would not be worth as much as Shen Teng.

Chen Wu said that an actor like Shen Teng is too difficult to find, which made Li Qian slightly taken aback.

However, with the addition of the four returnees mentioned just now, Li Qian vaguely guessed what the second half of the sentence was.

As expected, Chen Wu didn't hold back, and said the second half of the sentence with a serious face.

"But there are four popular idols like Lu Han, and with Li Yifeng before, there are five."

"Besides..."

Chen Wu paused, and waved his hand quite proudly, "Actors like Shen Teng are hard to come by, but this kind of idol star, Nan Bang has an inexhaustible supply, as many as you want."

Li Qian's eyes narrowed, "What does Mr. Chen mean?"

Obviously, if you guessed right, what Chen Wu meant was nothing more than that Lu Han made "Magic City Fortress" popular before it was filmed with tens of millions of fans. It can also make other movies the same as "Magic City Fortress".

Chen Wu smiled slightly, "The IP of "Magic City Fortress" can be copied, and Lu Han's popularity can also be replaced by others. If there is a popular "Magic City Fortress", countless "Magic City Fortress" can be copied."

"What if "Magic City Fortress" is a bad movie?" Li Qian frowned, and began to think deeper, and it was not a good thing.

"Director Li has long believed that "Magic Fortress" is a bad movie, so he didn't invest in it?" Chen Wu was not surprised at all, as if he didn't care about his investment at all.

"Yes, this one is not very suitable for adaptation, let alone a science fiction film, and Teng Huatao's adaptation is also average." Li Qian also told the truth.

But Chen Wu said, "Even if the quality is not good, the announcements made by Huayang Media, Ahli Films, and our Penguin party before the release, together with Lu Han's tens of millions of fans, are enough to push the movie's popularity." to an unprecedented height.

Coupled with the spending power of the fans, at least the box office of the first weekend can be maintained, calculated on the basis of [-] million a day, [-] million in the four days of the first weekend, and [-] billion box office with eyes closed. "

"That said."

A bad movie like "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" sold 1.6 million on the first day. When "Magic City Fortress" is released, the market will be even bigger, and Lu Han will have more fans, and it's still a sci-fi movie. There are advantages.

"However, with the development of information in the Internet age, I am afraid that the word-of-mouth will not be able to support it the next day." Li Qian raised a question.

"Review!"

Chen Wu confidently said two words, "Now audiences are used to buying tickets online. In the future, the ratings and comments of the four major platforms of Movies, Maoyan, Weiying, and fare evasion will have a great impact on the audience. As long as our four platforms can Together, it is enough to control the reviews of a bad movie, at least for a week, it is enough."

I rub!

Li Qian cursed inwardly, this is really shameless, it is like being an athlete and a referee at the same time.

Now online tickets have accounted for 80% of all movie tickets, and only 20% of movie theaters are bought offline.

Among the 80%, 90% of the market is monopolized by the four major platforms. Even Baidu Nuomi, which was supported by Baidu, was jointly killed, and the market leader of the theater chain, Grava, was bought by Li Qian.

It means that the four major platforms control more than 70% of the movie ticketing market. Those who buy tickets may not read comments on Douban, or go to various post bars and forums.

However, they will definitely click on the ratings and reviews of each movie on any of the four major platforms before buying tickets.

Sometimes even comparing the ticket prices of various platforms, you will look at them all.

If a movie is given a score of 9 or more by the four major platforms, most of the bad reviews are deleted, and all the good reviews are put at the top, it will definitely improve the box office tremendously.

However, no one has done so at present. The scores of the platforms basically match the satisfaction of the audience, and the scores of the four platforms for the same movie are basically the same.

No one dares to cheat, as long as whoever sets a precedent, it will definitely be eliminated by the other three platforms.

This is the advantage that the market is not monopolized. If there is only one platform left, then let them operate, and the audience will not see the real information at all.

Li Qian was a little shocked by Chen Wu's thoughts. As a film practitioner, he had never thought of this.

But as a capital, Li Qian didn't feel strange about Chen Wu's thoughts.

"Even if our four major platforms can control comments, what about other websites, forums, post bars, short videos, and word of mouth from viewers." Li Qian asked another question calmly.

"These things can be solved with money." Chen Wu smiled slightly, his ability to make money can be broken.

...Indeed, as long as there are people and money, it is not difficult to confuse a deer on the Internet. Besides, Penguin and Ahli have already controlled many channels of voice, and Ahlidu is still the second largest shareholder of Weibo.

Anything related to the Internet can't get around them.

According to Chen Wu, the combination of Penguin and Ahli, and the combination of the four major platforms, may indeed be able to control the bad reviews of a bad movie for a week.

If it is not so bad, and has a barely passing level, it will be easier, and cheating money is even better.

Li Qian felt shuddering all of a sudden, if this was really achieved, it would be a huge disaster for the film industry.

Suddenly, Li Qian also wanted to understand something.

Why did I always think in the past few years that the TV dramas in my mind, lighting, scenery, props, cameras, and actors are becoming more and more amateurish, and the level is almost unwatchable.

When the film studio has to spend a lot of money on controlling and reviewing, plus the TV series are now getting clicks, and the movie buys box office and ticket subsidies, the money spent on production will only decrease.

It's hard for a clever woman to make a living without rice, and without money, how can she make a good film.

In fact, there have been signs of this in the past two years, but it's not so obvious. Li Qian didn't think of it for a while.

At this point, in the future, the film and television industry should start to drive out good money with bad money.

Seeing that Li Qian was silent, Chen Wu thought he was thinking about the feasibility of his idea, so he continued, "This can also avoid the loss of the film to the greatest extent. Even if the quality of "Magic City Fortress" is not good, it will not be affected after the operation. No matter how much you lose, you may still make a profit, and it will not hit the capital that yearns for the film and television industry, and the practitioners in the film and television industry. In the next few years, the industry will also usher in unprecedented prosperity..."

Listening to the big cake Chen Wu drew for himself, the film industry will become an industry with a market value of trillions in the future, and the entire cultural and entertainment industry can reach the level of ten trillion.

The current market value of Hollywood on Wall Street is only 5000 billion U.S. dollars, and this ten trillion is comparable to three Hollywood.

But if Chen Wu really wants to say it, for Li Qian, for the entire film industry, for all filmmakers who are serious about making movies, and for those who can make movies well, disaster is about to happen.

Li Qian was not in a hurry to turn his face, and continued to ask Chen Wu's thoughts, wanting to dig out more.

"President Chen's proposal is very thoughtful, but he forgot a big problem."

"Director Li, please tell me."

Instead of being angry, Chen Wu was very happy, which meant that Li Qian was interested. In his plan, Li Qian and his faction were very important.

"Even if those little fresh meats have tens of millions of fans, as long as there are two or three bad movies in a row, the audience who have been fooled twice will not fall in the same place again, and they will be disgusted when they see their names. , No matter how much marketing is done, I’m afraid it’s useless.”

"Then just change another batch. There are a lot of small fresh meat on the Nanbang side. What are the four returnees? Wait two or three years for this group of people to fail, and then get another Eight Great King Kong." Chen Wu said nonchalantly. .

"After all, they are Nanbang people. Even if they are first-line idol groups, they can't compare with these four when they come to China." Li Qian said.
