Chapter 641 Confidence and schedule

"Kung Fu Panda" is still a bit late, but it will be officially completed in a month at the latest.

However, for "Kung Fu Panda", not only the Hollywood giants are not very optimistic, but also the domestic film and television industry, as well as Sanle Animation, also do not have much confidence.

There is nothing else, because there is basically a rule in Huaguo's animation, especially big movies, small investment can make money, big investment and big production, basically one is counted as one, and they are all lost.

Not to mention, big domestic animation movies want to go abroad.

Most people have a pessimistic attitude towards "Kung Fu Panda".

After all, the previous so-called 3D animation movies were all hit the street.

The slogan of the propaganda is better than anything else, but the result is that people are cursing and complaining.

"Kung Fu Panda" Lin Xiao has high hopes.

So naturally I hope to give "Kung Fu Panda" a good schedule. Although Christmas is not a legal holiday in China, but because it is next to New Year's Day, it can barely be considered a schedule.

But in Europe and the United States, the Christmas schedule is comparable to that of the Spring Festival in Huaguo.

It's just that when Lin Xiao proposed that "Kung Fu Panda" hoped to be released on the Christmas schedule, he met with strong opposition from the Dick Group.

why?Because of the horse-riding, during the Christmas period in North America, several major giants have new films released, and there are many films produced by film and television companies below the giants, which will also choose to be released around Christmas.

Competition can be called the most intense schedule every year.

Although the Dick Group is not optimistic about "Kung Fu Panda", they definitely don't want "Kung Fu Panda" to hit the street, so that they can't even recover the cost of publicity and distribution.

At the same time, this is the first cooperation between the two parties, and Dick Group does not hope that the first cooperation will end in failure. Therefore, Lin Xiao said that choosing the Christmas schedule, the person in charge of publishing "Kung Fu Panda" on Dick Group's side, the first Time objected.

Are you kidding, Christmas time, that's Hell level difficulty, okay?
And it's still a foreign film, and it's also a big animation movie produced by Huaguo, which is called the desert of animation movies.

"What? We will pay for the publicity fee in advance?" Fu Junle heard that Lin Xiao was going to use this method to persuade Dick Group to let "Kung Fu Panda" be released on the Christmas schedule. The first time Fu Junle looked at Lin Xiao like you were crazy sky.

Because of the agency distribution contract signed between Dick Group and "Kung Fu Panda", in addition to the distribution share, the publicity expenses were paid by Dick Group in advance. buckle.

But the key point is that they don't expect "Kung Fu Panda" to do much. In other words, it is very likely that the box office share will not be able to even out their publicity costs.

This is also one of the biggest reasons why Dick Group objected.

But if Lin Xiao paid for the initial publicity expenses, then Dick Group would definitely not be clinging on.

Because Lin Xiao paid for the publicity expenses himself, even if he loses money at that time, it will be Lin Xiao's side who will lose money.

"I have already decided, and I am very disappointed with your attitude." Lin Xiao said coldly.

What he said suddenly made Fu Junle smart.

His face turned even paler.

"We won't mention the future of "Kung Fu Panda" for now, but as the producer and producer of "Kung Fu Panda", if we don't even have confidence in ourselves, then how can you expect others to see "Kung Fu Panda"?"

"This is my last reminder, I don't want to see another time, understand?" Lin Xiao was really annoyed.

Why are there so many bad movies that can be scolded to death, but they can still rake in the box office amidst the scolding?
Is it marketing?Maybe, but more importantly, even if the things you sell are rubbish in the eyes of others, you can't think so yourself.

Obviously, Fu Junle and the others failed to do this. To put it bluntly, they were all dereliction of duty and failed to fulfill the responsibilities that a manager should fulfill.

Fu Junle also came back to his senses, he said with shame on his face: "Director Lin, I'm sorry, I was wrong!"

In fact, this kind of thing is not common, so there are not many bad movies that can really sell well, but look at those bad movies that can sell well, and see how they promote it?
They can praise bad movies to the point where they should only be in the sky. Is it because they don't know that their own works are bad?Obviously not, just like parents, no matter how poor their child's grades are, it is their own, and they will always believe that he can do well.

Recently, Sanle Animation, including the production team of "Kung Fu Panda", has a very bad atmosphere. It seems that none of them have much confidence in the movie they made by themselves.

This is why Lin Xiao is angry, why?This kind of thing is up and down.

As producers, they have put in a lot of hard work and painstaking efforts. They must have high expectations at the beginning, but the managers and leaders above have no confidence in this work, and it is easy for them to have self-doubt.

And the biggest dereliction of duty is obviously none other than Fu Junle, the CEO.

In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't find a suitable candidate for a while, Lin Xiao would have replaced Fu Junle a long time ago.

It's no wonder that "Son of the Sea" failed, and Fu Junle must bear a lot of responsibility.

However, Lin Xiao is a person who misses old love, so he plans to give Fu Junle another chance, and it depends on whether he can grasp it.

After being awakened by Lin Xiao's words, Lin Xiao was very satisfied with Fu Junle's change.

In the past few days, Fu Junle held several meetings one after another, expressing himself and the company's confidence in "Kung Fu Panda".

He even directly stated that the overseas publicity expenses of "Kung Fu Panda" will be paid by the company in advance, which has not yet taken place.

"Yes, many people are not optimistic about us, but who are we? How many people liked "Peppa Pig" back then? But what happened?"

"The reason why we have to pay for the publicity by ourselves is not because we lack confidence, but because we have absolute confidence in "Kung Fu Panda". Therefore, in order to make "Kung Fu Panda" get better publicity effects, we will formulate our own publicity. plans, and "Kung Fu Panda" will become the first major domestic animation movie to be released globally simultaneously."

"I might as well tell everyone that preparations for the second part of "Kung Fu Panda" have already begun."

Sometimes the attitude of the management, especially the top leadership of the company, towards a matter can easily affect the employees at the bottom.

Fu Junle quickly started negotiations with the Dick Group. Although the Dick Group was very puzzled by the actions of Sanle Animation, anyway, even if they lost money, it was not a loss of their money, so naturally they would not set up any obstacles.

"Kung Fu Panda" will be officially scheduled for Christmas, and will be screened globally simultaneously.
