Let you invest, you support half of the entertainment industry?

"The Mermaid" first-day box office data.

A stone stirs up a thousand waves.

It shocked the eyes of countless people.

"What? 350 million box office on the first day? What kind of international joke!"

"Break the box office record on the first day, so it's possible that Xu Jia's prediction of 4 billion will break through..."

"Could it be a fake? Even if it's Master Xing's movie, it wouldn't explode to such an extent."

"Just think about it. If it's really a fake, it's so hot, how could there be no news about it. It can only be said that this year's Spring Festival, other movies have no way out."

After learning about the box office on the first day, all parties sighed.

Obviously, they were looking forward to the scene of Jiaxing's failure, and missed it again.

Not only did he miss it, but he also witnessed it with his own eyes. Jiaxing stepped on the bones of many movies during the Spring Festival and set foot on the peak.

Also since then.

Everyone discovered that Jiaxing is no longer the simple production company it used to be.

Instead, it has taken a big step towards the entertainment giant.

The box office explosion of "Mermaid" made people clearly perceive that Jiaxing also has a lot of strength in distribution.

Otherwise, if there are not enough film schedules and theaters, it will be difficult to break 350 million on the first day.

From this point of view, Jiaxing's distribution capabilities are not weaker than most of the distribution companies in the circle.

Huayi at this time.

It was lifeless.

Wang Lei's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot: "Who can tell me why the film "Mermaid" fell into Jiaxing's hands instead of being distributed by us? You must know that we have collaborated with Zhou Xingxing on a film before, Can people be let go on this basis?"

While listening to the lesson with their heads down, everyone secretly cursed in their hearts.

It's not that you drove them into a hurry and took the company to court. Can they run away?

It's a good thing now, the responsibility is all pushed to the people below.

I poured it into a non-stick pan.

"Right now it's not a matter of "Mermaid", but Jiaxing has also extended its hand into the distribution area. They made it clear that they don't want to settle down in a corner, and they want to be an entertainment giant."

At this time, Feng Xiaogang was the only one who could speak, and sighed: "If you really want them to improve the distribution system, it will be really difficult to deal with in the future."

There is also a very simple truth. If a company wants to rise and become a giant, the first thing to do is to overthrow the rules of the old giants before it can create its own rules.

Jiaxing obviously wants to tear a piece of meat off Huayi's body in order to satisfy its appetite.

Boom!

The hot-tempered Wang Jun slapped the table and said angrily: "It's not that easy to step on Huayi, brother, I will warn those theater owners that if they dare to get involved with Jiaxing, we will refuse to provide them with films." .”

"Idiot! If you do this, you will only hurt your loved ones and hurt your enemies!"

Looking at his younger brother, Wang Lei felt dizzy.

It really pissed him off to have such a stupid brother at the booth.

Feng Xiaogang was also speechless for a while, and it took him a while to explain: "Refusal to supply films to the theater will only push those bosses to Xu Jia's side, and we will be the ones who will be hurt in the end."

More importantly, in the Chinese film market, the dominant side is basically the theater chain.

Quite simply, they own the platform.

Without Huayi, there are still many film production companies willing to provide.

Unless all the production companies come together, which is obviously not possible.

This is also the reason why theaters do not participate in the investment, but can get more than 50% of the share. They are really sitting and earning money.

But having said that, if the producers are good enough, they can also counter the theaters.

After all, no one will think that they make less money.

But in the final analysis, the theaters are born to be invincible.

This is also the reason why Xu Zheng's "囧Mom" was sold to an online video platform, and it was boycotted by all parties.

Because he broke the rules of the film industry.

Bypassing the theaters, bypassing the distribution, and directly selling the film to the online video platform.

In this way, the audience watched the movie on the Internet with a lower ticket price, and it was clear how to split the bill.

Only the rats on the original line had no room to survive.

But this piece of waterworks with millions of dollars is related to food and clothing.

Coupled with the strong backlash from vested interests and the old interest chain, it was still suppressed.

Otherwise, movie theaters will only have special effects movies in the future, and only audiences are willing to watch them.

Ordinary feature films can be watched on mobile phones.

As for some movie fans, the so-called big screen has more feeling and can observe details better.

That's pure self-indulgence.

If you really want to pay attention to tradition, at the earliest, there was a projectionist beside him to explain.

"Then what should we do? Just wait like this?" Wang Jun said discouragedly.

Jiaxing has proved with time that they will only become stronger and stronger.

"What's the rush? There are more people who are more anxious than us. Jiaxing stands up. It's not just our family's interests that are being eroded. Let's wait with peace of mind."

Feng Trousers narrowed his eyes, "Waiting for the day when Jiaxing takes the initiative to make a mistake is our chance."

"Then what if Jiaxing doesn't make mistakes?" Wang Lei said slowly.

"As long as they want to make money standing up, they have to get the right to speak, and if they want to get the right to speak, it is impossible not to make mistakes." Based on Feng Xiaogang's understanding of Xu Jia, the latter would never be willing to kneel down to make money. Just hide arrogance.

There is another point that he didn't explain.

Right now they can only wait for Jiaxing to take the initiative to make mistakes, take the initiative to attack, and they can't help others.

Not to mention anything else, just this Spring Festival, which movie is not treated as cannon fodder in front of "The Mermaid"?

...

On the other hand, Xu Jia has no time to care about the reactions of other companies.

He immediately passed the good news to Zhou Xingxing and others who were running the road show.

"Director Zhou, the box office on the first day was 350 million. Are you satisfied with this result?" Xu Jiaming asked knowingly.

"Hahaha, if I say I'm not satisfied, that's wishful thinking. If I'm satisfied, I can't be more satisfied." Zhou Xingxing laughed heartily.

His tossing and turning all night turned into a passion today.

The box office of this day exceeded his entire movie that year.

As Xu Jia said, this era has grown too fast, leaving too many old ideas behind.

At this time, how can I, the king of comedy, fall behind?

"Following this trend, it's not impossible to make a box office of 4 billion yuan. It was promised at the premiere ceremony before, and it's still too late to regret it now." Xu Jia tentatively said.

"I know you're testing me. No need. I consider myself a gentleman. A gentleman is hard to follow. He will never break his promise when he says he will act in a movie. But I must be satisfied with the book, otherwise I'd rather keep it on hold."

Hearing Zhou Xingxing's answer, the corners of Xu Jia's mouth rose, "Don't worry, I'm sure you will be satisfied."
