Chapter 24: . Lin Kexin is a big shot?

Beichuan Film Festival actually has two functions, one is to give newcomers a stage to show their works, and the other is similar to small-scale screening.
Because of the Beichuan Film Festival, the same has attracted media, film critics and so on from all over the country.
"Lilac" is actually not without any reputation. On the contrary, because of the big sales of the two songs, "Lilac" has already gained a lot of popularity. Although this popularity is opened by the song, it is the same for newcomers. As far as the director is concerned, the first film, without stars, without money, naturally cannot be so good in terms of publicity. Therefore, "Lilac" is a lot higher than the work of those new directors. .
This is also the reason why "Lilac" can attract people from Kyushu Film and Television, and even Shengtang Film and Television Group.
Otherwise, do you really think they only received an invitation from Wang Yifan and his family?
I'm afraid the business cards won't fit in my pockets.
It's just because it has gained a certain popularity compared to other movies "Lilac". This kind of film is undoubtedly more likely to succeed.
Don't look at it as if only two companies are interested in his films, but at this moment, there are at least dozens of movies being screened in dozens of theaters in the entire Beichuan Film Festival.
Those filmmakers who bought the film focused more on independent filmmakers who already had a certain reputation.
For example, Wu Tianxiong's new film is obviously more concerned and valued than "Lilac".
And this is only the first day of the opening, and there is still a long time to come, and the two parties are already interested.
Because it was Chen Hanming who expressed interest first, so naturally, Wang Yifan had to talk to Chen Hanming first. Of course, a negotiation would definitely not yield results immediately, unless the other party offered a price that Wang Yifan could not refuse. But obviously, this It is also impossible.
However, Wang Yifan did not neglect the people of the Shengtang Group, but asked Chen Shaojun to talk to him on his behalf.
After all, it is only the first contact, and I am afraid it is difficult to negotiate a result. It is just to set a channel for discussion first.
"Director Wang is really making a movie for the first time?" Chen Hanming asked curiously.
"Yes. The shortcomings made Mr. Chen laugh." Wang Yifan said with a smile.
"Director Wang is really a genius. Not only can he write songs and compose music, but he can achieve such a level when he directs for the first time. It's amazing." Chen Hanming said flatly.
"Mr. Chen is too good." Wang Yifan said indifferently. He is not a real hairy boy. The combined age of the two worlds is older than Chen Hanming. This compliment he can still catch calmly.
"Then I will go directly to the topic. We are more interested in the film "Lilac", but before that, we want to know what kind of cooperation Wang wants to use? It is to sell "Lilac" directly. "Flower", or agency distribution?" Chen Hanming looked at Wang Yifan and gave two choices.
"It doesn't matter whether it is sold out or issuance by agency, the main thing depends on the specific conditions. If it is sold out, then I don't know what price your company can offer? What about agency issuance?" Wang Yifan did not pick up this topic. , But pushed the problem back.
Chen Hanming smiled and said: "I'll be honest, "Lilac" is not too new to some extent. However, it is better than the drama of emotional people, but the film looks more like an extended version of the MV. The production cost of this film, I believe, should be around one million, so if Director Wang sells "Lilac" for reasons, we will have 8 million for Kyushu!"
When Chen Hanming said this, he stopped and looked at Wang Yifan with a smile.
To be honest, eight million is really sincere. After all, if Wang Yifan releases the film normally and wants to recover eight million, then the total box office of the film must be at least three times this number, which is 24 million, but this does not include the cost of publicity, which means that with publicity, the box office will be at least close to 30 million.
It is really not difficult for a low-cost film with a cost of one million to achieve 30 times the cost at the box office.
However, this also shows that Chen Hanming is really optimistic about this film.
But this is not the calculation.
Chen Hanming actually made an ambush here. What is a buyout? Is it to buy out distribution rights or all copyrights?
"What if it is an agency issue?" Wang Yifan asked if he could not comment.
Chen Hanming gave Wang Yifan a surprised look. He didn't expect that he had already paid 8 million, and the other party could still be quiet, which made him more serious.
"In the case of agency distribution, we will charge a 15% distribution fee. There are two options for the promotion budget. One is that we can advance a promotion budget, and then it will be deducted from the box office share. The budget will need to be further negotiated. . Of course, there is also that, Director Wang can fund the promotion of the film by himself." Chen Hanming explained with a smile.
"What about the scale? How many theaters can Kyushu give out for the scale of release? How many screens? How is the time allocated for the show?" Wang Yifan continued to ask with a smile on his face.
Chen Hanming gave explanations one by one. Chen Hanming was indeed sincere. At least, most of the time, he gave clear answers to the questions Wang Yifan asked.
However, in the end it was definitely not settled. Wang Yifan only said that he needed to discuss with his partner.
Chen Hanming is not in a hurry, after all, the possibility of talking about it once is very small.
After sending off Chen Hanming, Wang Yifan and Chen Shaojun joined together, and he also had preliminary contact with Shengtang Film and Television.
"How is it?" Wang Yifan asked.
"Buy out the distribution rights of 5 million, distribute as an agent, and share 18%. Shengtang’s President Ou said that if Zhang Zirong and Lin Kexin can be invited to promote the film, then the conditions can be negotiated, and Shengtang Group owns The top five theaters in the country can initially arrange at least 500 theaters for "Lilac", and the location of the theaters is guaranteed to be at least mid-range, and the number of screenings is based on normal movies." Chen Shaojun said.
500 theaters may be really nothing for those big productions, but for Wang Yifan and others, for "Lilac", they are already sincere enough. The key is to ensure that the location of the theater is mid-range, and The screenings are arranged in accordance with normal movies, which is definitely full of sincerity.
But, Zhang Zirong and Lin Kexin? The former is better to say. After all, Zhang Zirong was a bit inexplicable before, but he invited herself to be her guest of singing, which in itself can be regarded as a kind of reward.
But Lin Kexin?
Wang Yifan looked dumbfounded. Lin Kexin is a support teacher, famous?
Did I make a mistake?
