Chapter 716 It wasn't the market that chose him, but he led the market

When Shen Jinsong walked into the office, Shu Yihuan turned his back to him, standing where he usually liked to stand, looking into the distance.

"Director Shu!" Shen Jinsong greeted with a smile.

Shu Yihuan turned around with a polite smile on her lips, but her eyes were a bit sullen.

"Boss Shen." He nodded.

Shen Jinsong tried his best to make his voice sound loud and full of energy, "Is Director Shu here to discuss the celebration banquet with me?"

"The movie hasn't been released yet, why not a celebration banquet?" Shu Yihuan's voice seemed a little depressed, "It's director Hemingway, who is said to be opening a show at the Hongyuan Hotel in a few days, with a domestic box office of 1.5 billion and a global box office. A celebration banquet breaking through 3 billion. Tsk tsk, high spirits, a winner in life. This is only his third movie, can you imagine?"

Shen Jinsong sat in his chair and opened the drawer.

He didn't answer directly, but just said with a smile: "Where is Director Shu going to put the celebration banquet for the 3 billion global box office of 'Master Admiral'?"

Shu Yihuan said with a blank expression: "If the lineup of Stars and Stripes can't be improved a bit, let alone 3 billion, 2 billion is impossible at the global box office. Mr. Shen, what's going on? You ran away two days ago Let’s take a trip to the Stars and Stripes, what’s the result?”

Shen Jinsong took out two small boxes from the drawer, picked up one and threw it at Shu Yihuan.

Shu Yihuan took a look, frowned and stretched, "Cohiba's limited edition cigars, it's too wasteful for you to put them in the drawer so casually. It's not that you don't have money, so you should set up a constant temperature and humidity cigar. Store it in the cabinet."

"I'm not that particular, and I can't really taste the quality of cigars." Shen Jinsong smiled and took out the special cigar lighter and cigar cutter from the drawer, and began to open the small box in his hand.

"Then why do you buy such an expensive cigar? This one costs more than 6,000." Shu Yihuan said.

"Because I have money, I can afford it. There is no difference between a cigar worth 100 yuan and a cigar worth 6,000 yuan." Shen Jinsong unskillfully cut off the end of the cigar, took out the lighter and lit it .

After taking two deep breaths, the smoke did not pass through the lungs, and it was quickly spit out.

Smelling the alluring scent of cigars, under Shu Yihuan's speechless eyes, Shen Jinsong said, "I can't do anything about filming for the time being. As you can see, this is obviously Hemingway's operation, deliberately letting Warner Bros. The film changes its schedule and releases earlier,

Fight us in the arena and steal our film. This has nothing to do with the quality of the movies. Even if the quality of their movies is a mess, those theaters will give them priority because they are Warner. "

Shu Yihuan walked over from the window in silence, and took the cigar cutter and lighter from Shen Jinsong.

After lighting his cigar, Shu Yihuan retreated to the single sofa in the guest seat, stared in a daze for a while in the light blue smoke slowly dissipating, and then said: "7% of the film schedule on the first day is barely enough. .”

Speaking of this, the corner of his mouth twitched, "I have experienced more difficult days before, so what are you afraid of? I am a director of Dahuaguo, and the overseas box office is relatively high. This point, Stars and Stripes should also have a few .”

"It's not just higher," Shen Jinsong smiled and flattered him, "It's second. When 'Lord Admiral' is released, it should be able to rise to the first place."

The overseas box office of Shu Yihuan's movies has accumulated more than 2.7 billion U.S. dollars.

Among the directors of Dahuaguo, he is currently the second-ranked director in overseas box office, and the gap with the first place is quite small.

"Second?" Not only was Shu Yihuan not happy, but she smiled wryly, "After two years, it would be nice to keep the second place. You forgot that the overseas box office of 'Wulin' has already exceeded 1.5 billion, and it has only been released for more than ten days now." , this is going to the overseas box office of 3 billion. Maybe next year, even when "Wulin" ends its screening, his overseas box office will surpass mine. The younger generation is awesome!"

Shen Jinsong forced a smile and did not refute.

He knew that what Shu Yihuan said was the truth.

"However, after all, I can be regarded as a director with achievements," Shu Yihuan said as if to cheer herself up, "Although our first day of filming is cut now, as long as the attendance rate is good, there should be more filming for us in the later stage. .”

"It will definitely." Shen Jinsong agreed.

Although in fact he didn't know it.

"'Three Days to Kill'... How about this movie?" Shu Yihuan asked.

"It is said that it is not bad." Shen Jinsong replied cautiously.

"The production cost of 160 million dollars..." Shu Yihuan sighed.

"Three Days to Kill" is one of Warner Bros. Pictures' big productions this year.

It was originally supposed to be released in August, but apparently because of Hemingway's operation, it was brought forward to July 19, to compete with "Lord Admiral".

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. What's more, Warner Pictures has entered a low ebb period, but their management is not good, but it doesn't mean that their movies will be of poor quality.

At that time, Shen Jinsong wanted to temporarily change the schedule of "The Admiral", but the theaters did not let go. If they adjusted the release time, they would lose a lot of money.

At that time, Shen Jinsong wanted to question the other party: Then why can the "three-day pursuit" adjust the schedule casually?

Fortunately, he retained a bit of reason, and didn't ask such words that others can just find an excuse to dismiss, which will have no effect and will only offend others.

Moreover, Shen Jinsong considered that the initial publicity investment of "Master Admiral" should be able to attract enough people to enter the cinema.

As long as the attendance rate is good and the word-of-mouth is good, the subsequent filming should be improved a bit, and finally accepted that the filming of "Admiral" was cut.

Moreover, although Warner Pictures produced three films to compete with "The Admiral", Shen Jinsong felt that the only real threat was the "Three Days to Kill" with a cost of 160 million US dollars.

The other three, one is a low-cost comedy film of Warner Pictures, which will be released on July 26; two are independent films distributed by Warner Pictures. Releases July 31.

This is to encircle and suppress "Lord Admiral"...

In addition, there are two other films that can be called large-scale productions of the eight major companies. The schedule was adjusted.

Shen Jinsong suspected that this was also Hemingway's influence.

The Stars and Stripes is a country of capital, and if you have money, you have the right to speak.

With the wealth of Hemingway and Yan Yingzhen, it is too simple to affect the release time of several movies.

There is no need to owe favors, as long as Warner Bros. Pictures gives a certain return in the future, it is enough.

Fortunately, this is only in the Stars and Stripes Movie Market.

In China, Chasing Dream Huyu does not have a finished film that is just waiting to be released.

Hemingway wasn't as influential either.

Well, to be precise, Hemingway has considerable influence, but several companies with strong strength in film and television production are not friendly to Hemingway.

Such as Oasis Film and Television, such as Silver Star Entertainment.

Only Duan's Films has no conflicts with Hemingway, but Duan's Films has no major productions recently.

Therefore, "Admiral" only needs to face legitimate competition from "Wulin" and other film companies in the domestic market, and does not need to face deliberate encirclement and suppression.

This also made Shen Jinsong full of confidence in the "admiral".

With Shu Yihuan's famous brand, the 1.5 billion domestic box office can always be guaranteed, right?

Then overseas box office, 600-800 million should be no problem, right?

Then count the copyrights sold to the European film market, and then count the value created by online on-demand, commemorative DVD releases, movie soundtrack CDs, and other peripheral products.

The expected box office of "Master Admiral" may reach 2.1-2.3 billion.

Based on the cost of 400 million, the box office profit that the producer can get should be more than 300 million.

The rest of the income is also expected to reach 200-300 million.

According to the investment ratio, Shen Jinsong's personal investment should be able to make a profit of about 100 million.

That's pretty cool.

After completing this vote, you can consider withdrawing... After all, the current Du Caige is no longer something he can shake, and he can only avoid his edge.

Otherwise, maybe one day I will die without knowing how to die.

After hanging out in the Stars and Stripes for a long time, Shen Jinsong didn't learn anything else, but one thing impressed him deeply: don't go against capital.

This is a bloody lesson.
