Chapter 1504

"Zixia, how can I listen to your tone? It seems that I look down on these cinema companies?"

Listen to Liu Zixia not polite words, Fang Changfeng tone with doubts.

"Yes, I look down on them!"

Liu Zixia said with disdain

"In the off-season last year, the ticket price was only 40 yuan. In order to stimulate consumption, they took the initiative to reduce the price by 10 yuan. At that time, the film makers protested with the cinema Association. Did they listen to the words of the film makers?

They just have the resources in their own hands, and they are setting the price at will. Now that they are about to reach the May 1st gear, they even want to raise the price to 100 yuan, from 30 yuan to 100 yuan. Is there any reason? "

The increase in the price of movie tickets must be approved by the relevant departments.

But the time of price reduction is different. As long as it is limited to a certain range, the cinema line association can set its own price. It only needs to report to the relevant departments at that time.

After all, the price reduction is more beneficial to the people, while the price increase is different. It is tantamount to letting consumers pay more.

The increase is more than 100%. Do you think consumers can do it?

"Zixia, you also know that businessmen pursue profits, and it is in their interests to do so."

Fang Changfeng sighed and said, "but this time you do have some impulse. The price increase of the cinema side also needs to be discussed by us. If we don't pass it internally, it's illegal for them to raise 1 yuan."

"I know that you will consider the pricing of movie tickets from the perspective of people's livelihood."

Liu Zixia answered and said, "but I just can't swallow it! The money of the fans is not coming from the strong wind. Why should the cinema only consider themselves and not consider whether the public can accept it?

In addition, now the film premiere mode is only cinema line, and the channel for fans to watch the film is too single, which leads to the problem of film release mode and channel being the king.

Moreover, the proportion of individual cinemas is even much higher than that of other cinemas, which makes us film producers suffer a lot. I remember Huamei film, which produced many classic films at that time, has just slowed down. Isn't it the responsibility of their cinemas? "

In Liu Zixia's words, Huamei film has made many classic films, such as "Zhao's orphan" and "a perfect couple"... Which have won many awards at home and abroad.

However, in the past 14 years, Huamei pictures tried to "pay point" its "dissipating murderer" on a video website three days before its premiere in the cinema.

As a result, it was jointly opposed by all theaters across the country, and the protest was put forward by the Huaxia Association of theaters, and they also threatened that:

I hope Huamei film industry will stop the Internet Premiere of the movie the dissipated murderer, otherwise Huaxia film industry will boycott the films produced by Huamei film industry to a certain extent!

Renhuamei doesn't care about this at all, and still goes its own way to "pay for point" video on the video website.

What happened?

After half a day's screening, the peripheral products that Huamei film had previously authorized the cinema to sell were immediately stopped by all the domestic theaters.

At the same time, some film makers are adding fuel to the fire at this time.

Just like orange light media, at this time, it suspended all cooperation with Huamei film, refused to pay liquidated damages, and said it would go through legal procedures.

Driven by orange light media, more than a dozen film and television and entertainment companies have all made the same decision, and each of them is willing to pay liquidated damages by learning from orange light and going through legal procedures to let Huamei film sue them.

Half a day, just half a day!

Huamei film was forced to shut down the "pay point" channel, and a video website sued Huamei film or got huge compensation.

Huamei film also began to go downhill from that day, and many theaters are not willing to cooperate with them any more.

The owners of Huamei film also hate orange light media, as well as those film and television and entertainment companies that have suspended cooperation with their company.

Although they have received some liquidated damages from these film and television and entertainment companies, the consequence is that they not only offend the cinema Association, but also lose their reputation in front of the fans and the public.

It's said that the early on-demand has turned into closing the channel. Isn't that a lie?

In such a double-layer crevice, Huamei film has no choice but to specialize in TV series, variety shows and online dramas.

It took them five years to get over it, but now the scale of the company is not as big as it used to be.

"That's an example, too."

Fang Changfeng knew about this incident, which caused a great response in the Ministry at that time

"Besides, are you not afraid of the same situation this time? Although xiayue studio is powerful, it is hard to guarantee that there will be no problems. There is a lack of hot cooperation. Who do you want to cooperate with in your project? "

"Not afraid!"

Liu Zixia said with indifference: "Uncle Fang, let me tell you this. In addition to the hard-working staff, the whole Xia Yue studio is supported by me alone!

As for those entertainment and film companies who want to terminate their cooperation with me, do you think I care?

And I'm not afraid to tell you that now our studio is preparing to build a brand new company. This company is mainly engaged in on-line point film. We want to create a new film broadcasting mode. We won't be led by those cinema companies and let them form small groups any more! "

Movie online?

Hearing Liu Zixia's words, Fang Changfeng stopped and said in surprise, "you don't want to create an Internet cinema line, do you want to go online?"

"Congratulations, that's right, but there's no reward!"

Liu Zixia grinned and said, "well, uncle Fang, what do you think of my idea?"

"That's a bold idea!"

Fang Changfeng was silent for a while and said:

"You are provoking the whole cinema line industry in China. If all the film producers put their films on the Internet for premiere, won't the offline cinema line be replaced soon? I'm afraid this way of showing is just like grabbing the throat of these cinemas. "

"That's the effect."

Liu Zixia said carelessly: "the reason why the cinema side has this kind of reaction now is that they don't want to lose their right to speak. In the past, they used to squeeze the film producers on one hand, and on the other hand, they constantly raised the film prices, squeezing the consumers.

If there is one more online cinema channel, it will also give consumers one more choice and create many jobs. In my opinion, this is a good thing for the people and the society! "

"It's easy for you to think about it."

Fang Changfeng gave a bitter smile and said, "how can a new industry be so smooth? Let's not say whether this company can be established, even if it is established, what should we do when the film is released?

Can those from film and television and entertainment companies be optimistic about your online cinema?

I'm afraid no company is willing to put their works on the online cinema line before you make achievements. Moreover, the classification and management of online cinemas are all problems. How can you think so simply? "

"It's OK. Take your time. The most I have is time."

Liu Zixia said: "Uncle Fang, if you call me today and want me to cancel" Crazy Stone "and premiere it in panda video, forget it!

One is that I've done this after careful consideration. The other is that I'm responsible for my fans and consumers. It's rare to see a cheap movie, so don't embarrass consumers. "

"Well, I know that with your temper, once you decide something, ten cows won't come back."

Fang Changfeng sighed and said, "today I really want to persuade you, but now you have made up your mind. I don't want to disturb you.

But I still want to tell you in advance that the cinema association is really angry this time. I don't know what they will do in the future. Be careful yourself. "

"Uncle Fang, I see."

Liu Zixia said with a smile, "I'm not afraid that they will trouble me. Anyway, I have a large number of fans as my backing. What are you afraid that they will do?"

"You boy, you never let people worry."

Fang Changfeng said with a smile: "OK, there's nothing more. If you have time, you can go to see the old man at home. He still talks about you these two days."

"OK, uncle Fang!" Liu Zixia nodded and said, "Uncle Fang, please be busy first. I'll bring you two bottles of good wine to eat at home later."

With these words, Liu Zixia hung up.

……

"Lao San, the one from the cultural propaganda department?"

Sunuo watched Liu Zixia drop his cell phone and said, "what is he looking for?"

"What can I do? Let me withdraw the movie from panda video and put it on the cinema."

Liu Zixia left his mobile phone on the table and said, "these guys are really capable. How long has it just passed? There was a joint request for instructions."

"What joint request?" Asked suno curiously.

"Request for instructions on standardizing the film window period."

Liu Zixia said: "to put it bluntly, let the relevant departments make the next death rule. In the movie window, that is, the premiere period, it can only be played in the cinema, not on the Internet."

"Oh, yes!" Suno nodded and said, "Damn, isn't this banditry?"

"Not really?"

Liu Zixia touched his chin and said, "just listen to it as a joke. No matter it's the cultural propaganda department or the cultural and entertainment association, they won't agree with this ridiculous thing."

"It's also true that the 100% increase in movie ticket prices and the regulation of the movie window period are only the unilateral ideas of the cinema companies. I'm afraid the relevant departments will not really agree."

Suno nodded and said, "but what if they still call? No, you don't need call forwarding. You can set the power off directly, so that they can't get through the phone and we won't be bothered. "

"That's OK. I'll just set up a white list."

Liu Zixia thought about it and said, "by the way, fat man, what's going on over there? These days, the masters of traditional musical instruments should have come back, right
