Chapter 888： Heroes have not returned

Xiangjiang people already knew the news of the Cannes Film Festival ’s awards, heard it, and saw it.

However, the biggest heroes in this line did not come back, so that the reporters who wanted to go to the airport to block them were a little disappointed.

Lin Lingdong, of course, they cannot come back the first time.

In addition to being a feast for literary and artistic films, the Cannes Film Festival is also a hypermarket for buying and selling film rights.

Many movies will sell copyright here, making a big profit or a small profit.

Especially the kind of movies that tend to be literary and artistic, the most joyful thing is that they are caught by the filmmakers here, and then sell the film, make money or even make money.

To say that Europeans are actually quite contradictory, they will gradually be conquered by the super movies of the United States, but they also love the literary and artistic films.

Not to mention the literary and artistic films made by Europeans themselves, as well as the literary and artistic films of the United States, and even the literary and artistic films of China, South Korea, and Japan, many of them can find their own sense of presence in Europe.

For example, director Jia later, do n’t look at his reputation in the country, but people who have high reputation in several major film festivals in Europe, so his Bigger is much higher than domestic directors. .

People's movies can rely on selling copyrights and making money every time they are in Europe, so they don't care about the domestic box office market at all.

Many first- and second-line actors like to cut prices or even pay nothing to participate in his movies.

Can you imagine those big stars who took 5 million, 10 million, 100,000, 200,000, or even don't have money to bring dry food to participate in a movie destined for not much box office?

In fact there is.

They just adore Bige who likes Director Jia, they just want to go around the European Film Festival, so that European audiences can know themselves and add a little literary style to themselves.

Of course, Director Jia is only a low-profile version.

Hua Guo also has such a high-end version of the professional award winners. Not only the European award winners, but also all of them in the Chinese film industry.

Well, guess right.

Apart from the Sunglasses King, who else can do this?

Although this guy is indeed a pit father in terms of cost and time, and he also overlooks the mainland, but he really has the ability, not everyone can be as good as him.

The topic comes back.

"Supervision. Prison Storm" is actually very good at Xiangjiang's box office.

In 1987, just through "The Character of Heroes", the rising momentum of immortals was unstoppable, so "Jian Feng Yu Yun" directly hit the box office of more than 31 million, and won the runner-up at the box office.

With the blessing of the Golden Palm Awards at the Cannes Film Festival, its box office will be just as good this time.

However, if there is such a good momentum, if you do not make good use of the Palme d'Or, it would be a pity.

Not only the increase in profits, but also the opportunity to sell Xiangjiang movies to more countries so that they can learn more about Xiangjiang movies.

Do n’t look at the Xiangjiang movie in Asia, but its presence in the world is still very low.

Li Xiaolong's movies can be popular all over the world. In fact, thanks to this co-production with the United States, the United States people spent a lot of energy to push out the Li Xiaolong Kung Fu superstar.

But no one expected that Li Xiaolong had died so early in his life, and wanted to come to the United States. The intestines of the Chinese people all regretted it, Nima, I knew I was holding other people.

Except for the special case of Li Xiaolong, Xiangjiang's movies are not very good.

Let's not talk about Cheng Long's "killer trenches", just take the "police police school" that was sold globally last time.

"Police. School" is a global screening movie. It has the best box office in Asia and the United States is also good, but in Europe and South America, it has encountered a lot of embarrassment.

Not that the box office is too bad.

In fact, according to the number of screens, the average attendance rate of more than 40% is not embarrassing at all.

However, in addition to the greater strength of the United Kingdom, "Police School" was only released in several major countries and in several major cities.

If there are fewer screenings, the influence will naturally be out of the question.

This is also the important reason why Yin Jun has to spend 40 million US dollars to make advertisements all over the world.

Even if you make less money, it does n’t matter. With the excellent movie "Life and Death", the fans of these countries are impressed first. After seeing the movie produced by the Kirin movie, you will have a sense of familiarity. Go to the cinema to watch.

However, the first trailer of "Speed ​​of Life and Death" did not work well.

What really ignites the enthusiasm of global fans is the "Great Split" advertisement.

As the outsiders say, Mercedes-Benz is "crazy". They smashed three months worth of 150 million US dollars of advertisements, which were broadcast in a blanket bombing round the world.

At least two decades of rare super good advertising, Mercedes-Benz is working hard at this time, wanting to directly crush several opponents, leaving an indelible impression on the hearts of car fans and potential car buyers around the world, That was a very correct decision.

Even the two Mercedes-Benz SK heavy trucks on the advertisement, but because the car is too big, the Trident trademark of Mercedes-Benz is so conspicuous, and naturally promotes the image of Mercedes-Benz in the whole.

Especially the picture of Fei Xiang holding his hands and showing the word back with the heavy truck is simply classic to the extreme. It is directly used by Mercedes-Benz in each of their stores and posters.

In this way, when you look at the Mercedes-Benz, you will naturally see Fei Xiang, and more and more people will connect Fei Xiang with "Life and Death Speed", so the topic of "Life and Death Speed" is also more and more Come higher.

There are already some cinema distributors who have actively contacted Lianyi Movies and Dicini, hoping to obtain distribution rights.

But the United States is not in a hurry.

Because they have already seen the trailers of the second, third and final versions.

No matter how you want to authorize the distribution, you have to wait until after the third edition, otherwise the price and influence are both a waste and a shortage.

What Kirin movies, including Yin Jun, did not expect was that, apart from the "Speed ​​of Life and Death", "Jian. Feng Feng Yun" could win the Golden Palm Award at the Cannes Film Festival in one go.

The testimony written by Yin Jun is just a preparation. He has done a lot of work for "Jianfengfengyun", but it does not mean that he will definitely win the prize.

But if he won the prize, then he would not mind arrogance.

After all, Europeans and Americans are not used to the subtle expressions of Asia. This kind of slightly arrogant expression is more suitable for them.

Yin Jun is mainly to impress them, but it doesn't mean much.

I was awakened while sleeping with my girl in bed. When I heard that "Jian Feng Yu Yun" won the prize, besides congratulating them, Yin Jun gave them an order to stay in Ganado for a few days and try to keep the copyright sell away.

It ’s okay to have less money, but let more people know about this movie produced by Kirin.

A movie may not impress them, but if there are more than a dozen or more, it will definitely make them subconsciously accept the movies produced by Kirin movies.

Ok.

So the passionate crew who wanted to return to Xiangjiang to show off their prestige, stayed in Gana so painfully.

The actors could have gone back.

But Zhang Guorong's English is much better than Lin Lingdong. He volunteered to bargain with those theater operators, and Zhou Yunfa was naturally embarrassed to go back alone.

Once he went back, then all the glory will be concentrated on him, which is unfair to Lin Lingdong or Zhang Guorong.

It can only be that everyone goes back together and accepts flowers and applause together, which is the situation of everyone's joy.

Even the directors and leading actors did not return to Xiangjiang, and several staff members did not return. Naturally, Kirin Daily and Kirin Satellite TV also had to do some follow-up interviews, so all of them stayed in Cannes.

Speaking of talking about the sale of copyright, Lin Lingdong was not very suitable for business, and Zhang Guorong could not be the character of a businessman. If Yin Jun said it, just ask more countries to introduce "Jiang. Fengfengyun", and the rest Everything is easy to say, Lin Lingdong may not dare to take this job.

This is the case with Rao. On the second day of the end of the Cannes Film Festival, Lin Lingdong, who had talked with the cinema distributors in eight countries at once, was almost talking.

Only then did he realize that things were not as simple as Yin Jun said.

It's not that I don't have much demand on price, so copyright is so easy to negotiate.

For example, the requirements of some countries are really weird.

There are requirements that Lin Lingdong must take the leading actors to go to their country to do a show. This is not a problem, but the problem is that this show is not just one show. After finishing the show, they have to go to their country to go seven or eight. A movie theater, spend a lot of things for their platform, and all the costs are out of the crew!

There are also Lin Lingdong who specializes in shooting a behind-the-scenes footage, and stipulates that you must return to the original shooting area, and also have requirements for scale, clothing, and fineness ... Please, do you want me to make another movie?

There is also a requirement that "Jian Feng Yu Yun" must be translated into their national language at their own expense ... Well, this small country is giving a buy-out price of 100,000 US dollars. Finding a good translation team to translate it is more than this price.

...

Such requirements are what annoy Lin Lingdong and Zhang Guorong.

But you can't help but talk to them, you can only put your position out, and then above the bottom line ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Try to talk to them as seriously as possible.

This matter, really can't worry.

Under normal circumstances, many people will spend a month or two to negotiate a good business.

However, Lin Lingdong was somewhat gratified that the purchase of copyright in several major countries was much easier.

In the United States, Britain, France, Germany, and Italy, the difference is not in the money, but in the scale of the release.

This is also Yin Jun's account of Lin Lingdong.

I can make concessions for you in terms of price, but you have to make sure that there are more films, preferably nationwide.

Of course, the cinema dealers of several big countries are no longer doing anything, let alone anything else. Just how much does it cost for the nationwide release, do you know? Do you know how much energy we need to put in?

What they meant was that it was only shown in a few big cities, and then a video tape was released, which made it easy and convenient to make money.

If they are added a minimum number of places and places, for them, they add a tight spell, which is not very good.

Lin Lingdong is naturally not dry.

Nima.

The award-winning film of the Palme d’ Or at the Dang Cana Film Festival has been given to you at such a low price, but you still want to steal and play?

If you look like this, your country is not the only one of you, and I will definitely sell the copyright to other ones who can meet my conditions.

That being the case, no matter whether it is a large country or a small country, there has not been much progress in the negotiations.

Everyone just broke up again and again, and then drilled into a pile again and continued to start negotiations.

According to the current progress, it will take at least two weeks to complete.

Zhou Lifa only felt suffocated for a while.

In such a state, when we return to Xiangjiang, I am afraid that even the thought of celebration is gone!
