    Chapter 210 42, 43, 44, 45!

    "Please tell me." Irving said politely. Beijing New Film Alliance, Shanghai United Cinemas and his Tiantian Cinema were the only three cinemas among the major cinemas to have a box office of over 100 million last year. They can be regarded as  The leader in the industry has a strong voice.  And he also knew that Gao Jun was the most stubborn member of the group. The reason why several major theater chains could unite to confront him was because he was fanning the flames behind his back.  He is considered the thorn in the side of the theater faction. If he cannot be made to bow his head, I am afraid that others will not give in easily.

    "I admit that what Mr. Ou said makes sense. If the technology developed by your company is true, it can indeed effectively prevent the spread of piracy. In addition, the measures to reduce ticket prices can indeed attract more people to enter the cinema, but all of a sudden  Is it too much to increase the producer's share ratio from 40 to 45? Although the theater can get about 50 of the box office, after excluding the cost of labor and rent, the pure profit is only a dozen percentage points at most. Here you go  "50% of them were bitten off. The better theaters are making less money and operating poorly, and the worse theaters are probably going to close down." Gao Jun knocked on the table and said passionately, many people in the theater camp have been  Gao Jun's words were a wake-up call. Although Owen's words made sense, Mr. Gao's words were more worthy of their vigilance. They all nodded in agreement.

    "What does Mr. Gao mean?" Owen asked.

    Gao Jun smiled and said: "It's okay to reduce the ticket price, but the producer's share of 45 is too high. How about 42?"

    The producer's share ratio of "House of Flying Daggers" is 41, which is the highest among domestic films. This is due to Zhang Yimou's huge fame and the temptation of domestic blockbusters, and from 40 in "Hero" to 41 in "House of Flying Daggers"  , I don¡¯t know how much public relations work it took to get the new picture. It can be said that in the struggle with theaters, every percentage point improvement is very difficult. From this point of view, 42 is already very good for Irving and the others, at least  Wang Zhongjun started to laugh with satisfaction.

    After Gao Jun proposed 42, major theater chains also expressed their support. If it really rises to 45, then their theater companies will inevitably reduce their share and share the losses with the theaters. After all, five percentage points is a bit too much for the theaters to monopolize.  It¡¯s unrealistic, but if it¡¯s two percentage points, maybe theaters can still afford it, and then theater companies may not have to lower their share ratio.  Well, 42, reliable!

    Irving looked at the reactions of everyone present and said nothing. In fact, 45 is just his ideal height. This ratio is indeed too high. He proposed this ratio just for bargaining. In fact, for him, being able to increase it to 43 is already very good.  At this time, Gao Jun proposed 42. In Owen's expectation, he gave up one step further to drop to 44, and then they disagreed. Well, each of them took a step back, 43, done!

    Just when Irving was about to take a step back, Gao Jun said first: "42 You have already made a lot more money than before, why are you so greedy? If there were no major theater chains like ours, just relying on the 45 Tiantian theater chain  No theater can cover the major cities in the country, let alone support three blockbusters to absorb the box office. Without our major theater chains, I am afraid that the three blockbusters combined may not be able to break 200 million. This is definitely not your hard work.  It¡¯s what you want to see when you make a movie. If there weren¡¯t major theater chains like ours¡­¡±

    Gao Jun came up with a series of parallel sentences, and the more he talked, the more excited he became. It seemed that without our major theaters, Irving, Wang Zhongjun and the others would be worse than a puddle of shit. He just said this to want Irving to stop bargaining, 42, that's it.  It¡¯s settled, otherwise you¡¯ll be miserable.  However, he did not say what movies would be shown in the theaters of major production companies such as Irving and what should be eaten and drank if it were not for Irving and others.

    Owen's fat, smiling face suddenly fell down. This bald man was too bullying. Just when Owen was about to say a few harsh words, Wanda's Bao Jiazhong suddenly said: "Mr. Gao, you just said it wrong."  , not only Tiantian Cinema¡¯s 45 cinemas, but also our Wanda¡¯s five cinemas, a total of fifty cinemas, although it is still not a lot, but Wanda firmly supports Mr. Ou.¡±

    "Mr. Bao, what's wrong with you? Didn't we all agree yesterday?" Gao Jun said in surprise. He didn't expect that Wanda would suddenly support Irving and add weight to the other party. Although Wanda's current strength is not something to be afraid of, it may not be necessary.  Wanda can open several or even more than a dozen movie theaters a year, and all of them have absolute autonomy. This Wanda should not be underestimated.  In fact, not only Gao Jun did not expect it, but Irving was also greatly surprised. He had never come into contact with Bao Jiazhong before, and this was definitely not a backup plan he had left behind.

    There is a reason for Bao Jiazhong to "rebellion" at this time. Lao Baogan Cinema has worked for nearly 30 years and has witnessed the development of Chinese movies step by step from the 1970s. There was a peak period in the middle, but it has become increasingly declining in recent years.  , that is, things started to improve after "Hero". From the bottom of his heart, he hoped that Chinese films would get better and better. He had carefully read the brochure sent by Owen, and it is highly implementable. If it is really implemented,  Regarding domestic films and the domestic film market??The benefits are huge, so he is willing to support Irving. Of course, another important reason is that Wanda's theaters have absolute autonomy. Just like Tiantian Cinemas' own cinemas, they all belong to Tiantian Cinemas.  , so unlike most theaters in China, they have to pay high rents to real estate developers.  In contrast, Tiantian and Wanda have advantages that other theater companies cannot match, and they are more confident. Even if Wanda gives up 5% of their share, their profits are still considerable.

    After Bao Jiazhong's statement, it showed that Owen's side had added more than 40 screens, which had slightly improved its strength and had a big impact on the morale of the theaters. Gao Jun knew that 42 might not be able to hold on, and as expected, he didn't wait.  Speaking for themselves, Wu Hehu, the vice president of United Cinemas, was the first to say: "Mr. Ou, Mr. Gao, harmony makes money. If you have anything to say, please speak slowly. The prospect described by Mr. Ou is still good, compared with the hard work of the film company in making movies. 42  It's still a bit low, but 45 also makes it difficult for us, so let's take a step back, how about 43?" After Wu Hehu finished speaking, he looked at several theater CEOs present, and almost all of them nodded in agreement, 43 will be 43.  , who makes the current situation stronger than others.

    ?? Owen was pleasantly surprised by the compromise of the theater bosses. He didn¡¯t expect that the goal he set originally was achieved so easily, and now it seems there is still room for improvement. If he proposed 44, would they also agree?

    Just when Irving was hesitant to push the envelope, someone spoke again, and it wasn¡¯t just one person. Four people sitting together raised their hands at the same time to speak.

    Owen only recognized one of them as Wang Jiantao, the general manager of the Sichuan Emei Cinema Line. The Sichuan Emei Cinema Line was originally owned by the Emei Film Studio and was later privatized. It is second only to the Pacific Cinema Line in Sichuan Province.  The second largest theater chain in China, with 35 franchised theaters and 110 screens, its influence spreads all over the southwest provinces, and it also has above-average strength nationwide. Moreover, the southwest is considered a power vacuum zone for Tiantian Cinema Line, with only two  There are no franchised theaters in Chengdu and Chongqing, and there are none in Guizhou and Yunnan, so Irving attaches great importance to Pacific Cinemas and Emei Cinemas.

    As for the three people around Wang Jiantao, he didn't know them. Those three people were actually the people in charge of the theater, and there were quite a few people who knew them at the scene.

    "If you have anything to say, Mr. Wang, just say it." Owen was smiling, but he thought unhappily: I'm finally close to a deal here, I hope this guy doesn't do anything wrong.

    Wang Jiantao stood up and introduced everyone present formally: "This is Mr. Zhao from Heilongjiang Swan Cinema, this is Mr. Han from Qingdao Silver Star Cinema, and this is Xi'an Chang'an Cinema."  Mr. Wei from the line, I want to announce something here, I hope everyone can give me some time."

    Hei. Longjiang Swan Cinema Line, Qingdao Silver Star Cinema Line, Xi'an Chang'an Cinema Line?  Owen frowned, wondering what Wang Jiantao was up to. These three theater chains were not big theater chains and were not included in Owen's invitation. They were a less important part of the thirty theater chains.  Among them, the main influence of the Heilongjiang Swan Cinema Line is within the province of Heilongjiang. The sphere of influence of the Qingdao Silver Star Cinema Line is centered on Qingdao and radiates to the entire Shandong Province. The Chang'an Cinema Line in the west does not  It is said that they are mainly influential in Shaanxi and other northwest provinces. These three theater chains add up to only more than 80 screens, which is not as powerful as one Emei theater chain. It is no wonder that Irving does not pay attention to them. Small theater chains like them  Just wait and wait for Irving to compete with several major theater chains and then accept his fate.

    Before Irving could disagree, Wang Jiantao started to say: "Hello everyone, I am Wang Jiantao from the Sichuan Emei Cinema Line. I am honored to attend this meeting. I want to announce something here, that is, Emei  The four theater chains, Swan Theater Line, Silver Star Theater Line and Chang'an Theater Line, will be merged and reorganized. The reorganized theater chain will be called Nanqianbeidiao Theater Line. It is headquartered in Chengdu. I will serve as the general manager and serve as  Vice Chairman.¡±

    "What?"

    "how so!"

    "When did this happen? Why didn't I hear any news at all?"

    This news was like a thunderbolt in the conference room. Four theater chains that were not very strong in the first place suddenly merged. Someone calculated that this so-called southern-to-north-dialect theater chain would have more than 80 franchised theaters, with the number of screens  Breaking through 190 yuan and nearly 200 yuan, it became the fifth largest cinema chain after United Cinemas, Tiantian Cinemas, New Film Alliance, and China Film and Star Cinema!  The strength has grown by leaps and bounds, and the status cannot be compared with the same.

    Just when people had not thought about it, Wang Jiantao dropped another big news: "The reorganized Southern-Northern Dialect Theater Line will respond to President Irving's call, and there will be no ambiguity in lowering ticket prices and raising profits. We are also very eager for the three movies  Blockbusters can enter the cinemas of Nanqianbei Diao, bringing the most enjoyable entertainment experience to people in remote areas such as the southwest, northeast and northwest. I hope we can have a happy cooperation."

    Owen stood up suddenly, walked quickly to Wang Jiantao, held his hand, and shouted: "Happy cooperation." But he felt fierce in his heart.The person patting his thigh thought: The 45 share is settled like this!
