Chapter 188 Promotion
“Where do you live?” Fan Binbin asked immediately.
"The house I rented." Wang Shu told a rough address, but did not tell the exact location.
“Didn’t you buy a house?” Fan Binbin was a little surprised.
"Buried Alive", "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox", and "The Tuner" should have made Wang Shu some money.
Still renting?
“I’m too busy and don’t have time to look at houses. I plan to buy one next year.” Wang Shu said with a smile.
“What kind of house do you plan to buy?” Fan Binbin was stunned after hearing this.
"Maybe I will buy a villa" Wang Shu said his plan.
"What price?" Fan Binbin asked subconsciously when he heard that Wang Shu wanted to buy a villa.
"About ten million." Wang Shu said an ambiguous number.
If he has sufficient funds next year, he plans to buy a villa worth less than 30 million to live in.
House prices across the country have skyrocketed. The first wave started in 2008 and the second wave in 2016. Then it emptied the wealth of tens of millions of people.
Next year is 2007. Although housing prices are slightly higher than in 2006, they are far from as sharp as after 2008.
He does not have sufficient funds now, so he can wait.
Last month, his company's account received dividends from the box office of the movie "The Tuner", totaling more than 8 million yuan.
In terms of investment in this film, China Film Group accounted for 60%, Guangzhou Lighting Group accounted for 25%, and Wang Shu’s Yishu Company accounted for 15%.
The total box office is 160 million. After deducting special film funds, taxes, and theater chain shares, there is still about 61 million left.
The producers and investors cannot distribute the 61 million as dividends at this time. Before that, the distributor’s agency distribution share needs to be deducted.
Generally, the proportion is 5%-15% among the producers and investors, that is, 5%-15% of the 61 million.
It’s just that in many cases, the distributor will advance the film’s promotional and distribution costs.
At this time, the issuer will charge an agency issuance fee of 12-20%.
If the issuer commits to a guaranteed issuance, buyout of issuance, prepayment of production costs, etc., it will charge higher distribution agency fees.
The publisher of "The Tuner" has an agency distribution fee of 8%, which is 8% of about 6,100, or about 4.8 million.
After deducting this part, the remaining movie box office of about 56 million is the total box office that the producers and investors can share.
Wang Shu accounts for 15%, 5600W*15% is equal to 8.4 million.
In short, the total share of the movie box office that producers and investors can share, after deducting special movie funds, taxes, theater shares, and distributor shares, can be divided into about 31% of the total box office. %about.
The producers and investors will then divide their respective dividends from this 31% according to the investment ratio.
This proportion will increase to 33% in the future.
The box office dividend settlement cycle after a movie is released is generally 3-6 months.
Wang Shu's company account received its first box office dividend from "The Tuner" in early July, exactly six months ago.
After the movie box office is released, there will be a second dividend, mainly in TV station copyright dividends, overseas copyright dividends, online copyright dividends, business cooperation, advertising placement, related derivatives, etc.
The period of these dividends is also 3-6 months.
However, it is 3-6 months after the movie is released in theaters and the theater chain pays dividends for the first time.
In the second dividend of TV copyright dividends, the income is mainly reflected in the relatively well-known TV and movie channels.
There are usually two ways of cooperation.
First, the TV station directly purchases the copyright and broadcasts it on the TV channel, and the film’s producers and investors will receive corresponding copyright benefits.
Second, purchasing copyrights at a lower price is calculated based on the number of views, and the income of producers and investors is linked to the number of views of the movie.
As for the dividends from overseas copyright income, after the movie is released, the producer will push the movie abroad and export culture to the outside world.
Generally speaking, as long as the copyright of a movie is subscribed, no matter what method or channel the movie is publicly screened, all public screening channels can legally and compliantly enjoy corresponding income rights.
As for Internet copyright dividends, it can be ignored in the current era.
Remaining business cooperation, advertising placement, related derivatives, etc. That is, patch advertising, brand placement, and peripherals, etc.
Fan Binbin was a little surprised when he heard that Wang Shu wanted to buy a villa worth tens of millions.
As an industry insider in the film and television industry, she clearly knows that even if "The Tuner" has a box office of 160 million and "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox" becomes a hit, the profit will eventually go to Wang Shu. not much.
What's more, after "The Tuner" was released, Wang Shu also invested in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", "Time Traveler", and several idol dramas.
Plus, the company's daily expenses and so on.
The funds in Wang Shu’s hands should not be sufficient.
Where did you get the money to buy a multi-million dollar villa?
Fan Binbin. Just think that Wang Shu is bragging.
Only when Wang Shu was upset at the premiere of "Space Traveler", he boasted in front of her.
You know, in 2006, the salary for her and Zhou Xun's TV series was only 8W per episode.
Fan Binbin saw through it without revealing it, and said with a smile: "It's a villa worth tens of millions, then I'll go and sit there."
"You're welcome at any time." Wang Shu listened He said this with a smile.
Fan Binbin curled his lips when he heard this.
The two chatted for a few more words and hung up the phone.
Fan Binbin didn't think that Wang Shu had no money, but that it was impossible for Wang Shu to spend tens of millions of dollars to buy a villa at once.
Because, even if you have this money, it will be used to run the company, not just to buy a villa.
She would have such a judgment only because she, as an industry insider in the film and television industry, judged Wang Shu after he established a film and television company.
She didn’t know that Wang Shu had other companies.
I don’t know that the popularity of yo-yo has made Wang Shu earn a lot.
After ending the phone call with Fan Binbin, Wang Shu immediately called Xu Huanhuan.
This time, he still gave a reasonable reason to let Xu Huanhuan know that he didn't answer the phone right away because he was busy with something, not because he didn't answer the phone on purpose.
The two chatted for a while, and Wang Shu called Ning Jing and others.
He answered all the missed calls on his mobile phone one by one, and gave corresponding reasons to explain according to the time difference.
After finishing this, he replied to Yang Mi, Yang Ruoxi, Jiang Xin, Shu Chang and others who sent him text messages.
"Director Wang, the movie is very good. I have a hunch that it will definitely be a hit." Yang Mi.
“Your hunch? Why do I think it’s unreliable?” Wang Shu replied.
"Director Wang, "Space Traveler" is so beautiful, you are really amazing." Yang Ruoxi.
"Haha, as long as you like it." Wang Shu replied.
"Director Wang, "Space Traveler" is a great movie. I wish it a great box office success." Jiang Xin. "Thank you, and I wish you success in your career." Wang Shu.
"Director Wang, the movie is very beautiful and well shot." Shu advocated.
"Haha, as long as you like it." Wang Shu.
After he quickly replied to many people's messages, text messages from Yang Mi, Yang Ruoxi and others came again.
However, texting is different from talking on the phone.
We can only talk on the phone one-on-one.
Send text messages. As long as your hand speed is fast enough, you can chat with many people at the same time.
Wang Shu’s hand speed is very fast. He is currently sending text messages to many people at the same time.
My fingers are just a little tired.
At the same time, some film critics who were invited to watch the premiere of "Space Traveler" also posted their comments on the Internet after watching the movie.
A film critic wrote: "After watching Wang Shu's "Time Traveler", what I want to say is that time and space travel is just a gimmick, and the most important thing is family love."
"When the protagonist discovers that even time and space can be Traveling still cannot avoid the tragedies of life, such as the death of loved ones, and we are always powerless. This is probably what touches me the most.”
“The ultimate theme is still learning to love, learn to live, and cherish. It’s easy to say this every day with your loved ones, but it’s actually quite difficult.”
“The same should be true in life!”
“Although, for a purely commercial film, artistry plays a very important role. Less, more commercial”
"But the artistry of "Lovers in Time" is just right. It is both commercial and artistic. It is a high-quality and high-quality film."
"As for "Lovers in Time", it has some artistry, which is a lot of art. A common problem among film directors."
"After all, we all know that Wang Shu made his debut in art films."
"Some directors who have been making art films for a long time always make commercial films. If you want to add some artistry to commercial films, the result is basically forced feeding of shit, and the filming will be nondescript. "
"Wang Shu. I have to say that the director who was able to win awards in Berlin and Cannes at the age of 20 has such abilities. It’s not false.”
"This movie has more artistry, which directly sublimates the film!"
"The script was written by Wang Shu, and the film was shot by Wang Shu."
"After watching this movie Finally, in addition to being surprised by the high quality of the film, I am also amazed that a great director is about to be born in our country."
"Finally, I strongly recommend that everyone wait for the official release of "Space Traveler". Then walked into the cinema. "
"This movie is of high quality and definitely worth the price. You will definitely regret not watching it."
Another film critic wrote on the Internet: "After watching Wang Shu's "Time Traveler", I finally feel like some directors are not only making movies about old wine in new bottles, but also movies about old wine in new bottles. . ”
“Except for those movies with these themes, there is nothing new at all. It really makes people vomit.”
”Wang Shu’s "Love in Time and Space". "Traveler" is different. After watching it, I rekindled my hope in our Chinese-language films."
"Wang Shu's "Traveler" has beautiful casting, beautiful soundtrack, beautiful styling, and beautiful shots. Beautiful, beautiful plot, beautiful lines, such a good-humoring movie, I almost forgot how beautiful love is, but the movie not only describes love, but also warm family and family affection , and life.”
“Of course, these are not the most important!”
"The important thing is that "Love Traveler" is a movie with new ideas that can make people's eyes shine!"
"It can be said that the emergence of "Love Traveler" is definitely an epoch-making moment for our Chinese-language films. "
"It does not mean how artistic this movie is, but it means that this movie is innovative!"
"It is breaking the long-standing tradition of our Chinese-language movies. Pattern."
"No need for me to say, I think everyone knows that there is a certain movie that was released a few days ago and a certain movie that will be released in the New Year."
"Two of the country's leading directors have assembled a cast of big-name stars, but in the end they are all putting old wine in new bottles and filming historical adaptations to death."
"What the hell is this? ”
“Look at America!”
“Look at Hollywood.”
“There are movies of all kinds!”
"On the other hand, here we have a bunch of well-known directors making old wine in new bottles all day long to fool the audience."
"It's really ridiculous."
Many netizens who are still staying up late have seen many Film critics' evaluations of "Space Traveler" have become hotly debated one after another.
“No, in the evening I saw on the Internet that Director Feng said that Wang Shu’s "Love Traveler" would be squeezed out of the living space by "Baby Project" starring Chen Long, and he looked down on "Love in Time". "Traveler", why did things start to go wrong at night?" Some netizens asked knowingly.
"Feng Xiaogang: The clown in "Love Traveler". Film critic: "Love Traveler" beats Feng Xiaogang." Some netizens concluded.
"Is "Space Traveler" really good to watch? Why do so many celebrities say it's good to watch?" a netizen asked.
At this moment, not only many netizens are staying up late, Feng Xiaogang is also unable to sleep.
When he thought of what he said during the interview, he felt ashamed.
Although he did not attend the premiere of "Lovers in Time and Space", many acquaintances told him about their impressions after watching "Lovers in Time and Space".
If it’s just one person saying yes, then maybe that’s not the case.
But if everyone is saying yes, then there is an explanation.
The next morning, Wang Shu got up from bed and washed up.
Then go to the airport and head to the Magic City with Sun Li and others.
As soon as he got on the plane, he closed his eyes to catch up on his sleep.
He went to bed too late last night, so he didn't get a good rest.
After sleeping in the Magic City, in the afternoon, we started the premiere event in the Magic City.
The entourage in the company took advantage of the opportunity to tell him about the heated discussion on the Internet about "Space Traveler". Since he was busy with work, he only listened briefly and didn't pay attention. .
After finishing the promotional activities for the premiere in Shanghai, we flew to Chengdu, Yangcheng and other places.
In a blink of an eye, it’s September 20th.
"Baby Project" starring Chen Long, Louis Koo, Gao Yuanyuan and others held its premiere ceremony in Beijing.
In fact, as early as September 8, "Baby Project" had its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival.
The purpose of premiering at the Venice Film Festival is of course not to participate in the awards. This kind of film would not be selected even if it wanted to participate.
The purpose is to promote movies on the stage of the Venice Film Festival.
As an exhibition film, the premiere time arranged by the Venice Film Festival Organizing Committee for "Baby Project" was not ideal.
However, this does not hinder the enthusiasm of movie fans for Chen Long, especially the Chinese who do business in Venice. Almost all their families came out to support Chen Long.
And Gao Yuanyuan even appeared in a black and white "crane costume".
