A few days before Mrs. Thatcher's visit to China, "Happy Campus", which was promoted for only one week, was released in the New Era theaters.
Since the summer vacation has ended and the students have returned to school to attend classes, the attendance rate of theaters with slightly poor locations is worrying.
However, the joining of happy girls such as Li Yàn Shan has greatly increased the appeal of this movie to young audiences, especially the audiences in four leading theaters, and many students come to watch the movies as soon as they are finished school.
Outside the Broadway Theater under Anle, Kang Jianfei and Jiang Zhiqiang were sitting in the car, watching the student audience coming in and out.
After watching for a while, Jiang Zhiqiang exhaled and said: The attendance rate is quite reasonable, and he finally did not lose money.
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: If it was the summer season, business would definitely be better. Now is the off-season, so it is already good to have such moviegoers.
Jiang Zhiqiang said: However, there are several small theaters that are not good at good locations, and the worst one has less than 40%.This is the first two days since the new film was released. I am afraid that the attendance rate will drop below 20% in a few days.
Let’s do as the rules set, Kang Jianfei said helplessly, I only charge 60% of the copy money for theaters with attendance rates below 50%. For every 10 points of attendance rate, the copy rent will drop by 10%.
This is a measure formulated by Kang Jianfei to protect those joining the small cinemas. Otherwise, who would have been losing money and would have been following you?The biggest expense of the theater is copying the rent, and Kang Jianfei has done his best to be kind and righteous.
The average attendance rate of "Happy Campus" is very low, but no one laughs at the New Era Theater and Kang Jianfei are not good, because everyone is similar during the off-season of the movie.
Five days later, there are three theaters under the New Era Cinema. Because the attendance rate is too low, I can only write "Happy Campus" in advance and release other old movies with cheap copies.
Over time, "Happy Campus" has been released less and less.
But what is quite strange is that because this film is very popular among student audiences and young people, while the attendance rate of some small theaters has declined, the attendance rate of four large theaters under the New Era Cinema has increased instead of decreasing.
A week passed, and "Happy Campus" won 3.89 million in the first week of the box office, which is rare in the off-season of the movies where there are not many good movies. It directly won the box office championship of that week.
As soon as the news came out, the outside world suddenly became impressed by the new era theater chain, but what industry insiders are more interested in is the operating model of the new era theater chain.
Because one week after "Happy Campus" was released, only 9 theaters are still being released.
Those small theaters that put "Happy Campus" in their paintings did not endure losses due to lack of film sources, but instead returned to employment and screened old films, and they were completely self-operated and self-financing. Some theaters even made profits by screening underground pornographic films.
If theaters such as Shaw Brothers and Princess Jin are regular soldiers, then the theaters in the new era are a bunch of bandits. When there is a transaction, they will leave after the transaction is completed, and finally divide the gold and silver according to the amount of effort.
Jiang Zhiqiang said in an interview with "Movie Biweekly": The new era of theaters is different from ordinary theaters. Although theater companies have always existed, when there is no source of films, their theaters are actually responsible for their own profits and losses.Mr. Kang Jianfei called this temporary theater. We had operated it in the United States more than a year ago, and I made hundreds of thousands of dollars at that time.So when Mr. Kang proposed to start a new era theater chain, I immediately agreed because I was very confident in this model... Mr. Kang Jianfei is definitely a film genius, which is not only reflected in his directorial ability.The previous cancellation of the bottom-up system of Princess Jin and the current temporary theater system in the new era were all done by Mr. Kang.Many Hong Kong filmmakers will benefit from the new theater model proposed by Mr. Kang, and I admire him very much.
Jiang Zhiqiang also did some serious calculations for "Movie Biweekly" and concluded that after forming the new era theater chain, the profits of small theaters will increase by about 20 to 40%, while the revenues of several leading theaters will increase by more than 60%.
After DreamWorks' movies were released, all the theaters were responsible for their own profits and losses, which was the same as their previous operating conditions, and there was no hidden concern about losses.
After the article in "Movie Biweekly" was published, it was reprinted by many Hong Kong newspapers, and the account that Jiang Zhiqiang calculated was also confirmed by professionals.
Ming Pao Weekly commented on this: The emergence of temporary theaters is tantamount to a revolution for the Hong Kong film industry.There has been a gap in the monopoly of large theater companies in the film market.In the future, retail cinemas in Hong Kong can freely join temporary theaters according to their own needs.And this is also a beneficial and harmless thing for some small directors in small companies. Their movies have another way to release...
The Oriental Daily is beginning to publish articles praising Kang Jianfei again: If Run Run Shaw's success lies in his careful calculations and conscientiousness; Zou Wenhuai's success lies in his use of pioneering and innovation and embracing all rivers; then Kang Jianfei's success lies in his courage to think, fight and make all kinds of wisdom.
The cancellation of the cinema guarantee system by Princess Jin Cinemas is a major change in the Hong Kong film industry. After more than two years, this system has completely disappeared in Hong Kong.
Speaking of the cancellation of the bottom-up system, we have to mention Kang Jianfei, because he was the first to make this suggestion to Lei Juekun.
Judging from the theater lineup of the new era theaters, most of the franchise members are second- and third-rate theaters. If anyone wants to run this theater, there will only be one loss.So when the New Era Cinema was announced, many people were waiting to see jokes, and no one thought that this Cinema could stick to it.But the result is surprising. Not only did this theater chain not lose money, but it was running stably without losses...
As a reward for the long-term promotion of Oriental Daily, some of the exclusive news and precious photos obtained by Feng Huáng Taiwan in Beijing will be selected to share with Oriental Daily, and general news will be given directly for free.
After the operational model of theaters in the new era was reported by the media, the most happy thing was the small film companies and independent directors, who all contacted Ma Qiao with Princess Jin and Shaw Brothers on their backs.
Why do they contact Maqiao?
Because the distribution rights of films in the new era are in the hands of Oriental DreamWorks.Which film can be released in theaters in the new era is up to Ma Qiao, the head of the operation manager of DreamWorks.
In this process, after Oriental DreamWorks abandoned the bad movies that were destined to be a failure, it has various operability for those movies with certain box office potential.
One is to distribute videos for other companies, and DreamWorks earns a distribution fee in the middle; the second is to buy the film directly, spend a lot of money to buy the video, and operate it as DreamWorks' own video.
Don’t underestimate this. Just holding the distribution rights of a theater chain can make Oriental DreamWorks one of the Hong Kong film giants.
It can not only increase the company's revenue, but also greatly enhance the company's influence. After all, so many small and medium-sized film companies have to act according to DreamWorks' expressions.
And when purchasing or releasing videos for other companies, Oriental DreamWorks' Human Resources Department and Artist Department must also participate, and can discover talents from small companies in these videos.
Any potential director, actor, screenwriter, photographer, etc. will be recorded by DreamWorks. Once there are talents worth taking action, DreamWorks can attract them through various methods.
It can be said that the establishment of temporary theaters is not only a simple solution to the filming problem of DreamWorks, but it directly sublimates Oriental DreamWorks to a higher level and becomes a big tycoon in the Hong Kong film industry.
Awesome, Kang Jianfei made this move very well!After Zou Wenhuai thought through everything, he couldn't help but exclaim.
Among several film giants, although Zou Wenhuai fought the most box office battle with Kang Jianfei every year, he was actually the one with the least conflict with Kang Jianfei.
During the poaching operation some time ago, Zou Wenhuai only dug out one-third of the members of the Raptors' stunt team, unlike Lei Juekun who poached two generals.
As for the box office battle between Jiahe and DreamWorks, it is just a normal commercial competition.To put it bluntly, Kang Jianfei and Zou Wenhuai have a bit of a heroic taste.
As for Run Run Shaw and Lei Juekun, they and Kang Jianfei have completely broken up.
On Run Run Shaw, it was mainly Fang Yihua who used small tricks to fly Yin Kang, and Run Run Shaw passed the inspection office to block Dream Factory's film, and the grudges on both sides were no longer in harmony.
And where on Lei Juekun?
From Lei Juekun's perspective, he just wanted to use coercion to achieve the goal of investing in DreamWorks.
However, for Kang Jianfei, Lei Juekun's behavior was to force him to death, and it was a rhythm that was completely endless and life-and-death.
Kang Jianfei is making great progress with the help of the new era theater chain. What is Lei Juekun's mood now?
Lei Juekun's intestines are regretful. Dreamworks is the most profitable film company in Hong Kong. After Dreamworks terminates its cooperation with Princess Jin, the profit of Princess Jin's theaters will be reduced by at least 20% or 30%.
In Lei Juekun's plan, Kang Jianfei would surrender 100%, but now he not only failed to invest in DreamWorks, but he wasted his own losses, causing him to suffer a lot.
The other two shareholders of Princess Jin Cinema, Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong, are now quite complaining about Lei Juekun, because Lei Juekun seriously damages their interests for personal gain.
What worried Lei Juekun the most was that Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong had already revealed signs of breaking up, as if they were going to join the new era theater chain.
Of course, the saying of joining the New Era theater is just an excuse to threaten Lei Juekun.
After all, there are plenty of films in Golden Princess today, which is much more profitable than the new era theaters. Chen and Feng will only break up if they are funny.
But with the development of theaters in the new era, after another one or two years and the source of films in the new era is sufficient, then Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong may really leave Princess Jin and join the new era.
Lei Juekun's one-man show at Princess Jin Cinema has been broken. Now Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong have joined forces to argue with Lei Juekun in many matters, which makes him very upset.
Lei Juekun even couldn't help but think: It would be great if Kang Jianfei didn't force him away!
Since the summer vacation has ended and the students have returned to school to attend classes, the attendance rate of theaters with slightly poor locations is worrying.
