Annual Meeting

Orange has never held annual meetings. This year is quite special. Ten of the movies in the top 15 box office rankings are produced by Orange. They are truly the overlord of the Chinese entertainment industry!

"Detective Chinatown 2" in the Spring Festival won 5.2 billion box office, and "Walking with God: Crime and Punishment" at the end of the year became a hit again. It won 1 billion box office in the first weekend. It was released for 15 days, with a cumulative box office of more than 2.5 billion yuan. It is estimated that it is another work that has exceeded 3 billion!

Plus "Aquaman" is about to be released...

Wow, this year's Orange almost monopolizes Chinese-language movies!

As the company leader, Lu Xiaoran delivered a speech.

"Hello everyone! Uh..." He said this, he was a little stuck, and then smiled and spread his hands. "I had prepared a lot of things to say, but I saw everyone holding wine glasses... Okay, just one sentence! In 2018, which is about to pass, all our work is going to be carried out in an orderly manner according to the pre-designated plan... I hope that in the new year, everyone's work will continue! That's all!"

As a year-end summary, although these few words are not many, they are really exciting!

Of course, this is also true!

Throughout 2018, the secondary market and entertainment sector fell in various ways. According to the "Investment World", the past year has been a difficult year for the cultural and media industry. The film and television tax policies have been tightened, hundreds of companies have withdrawn from Horgos, and the game version number review has been pressed to pause, and the game company's business growth has been weak.

The market value of the five major private media companies has generally declined, and only Orange Image has always been strong. In the so-called film and television winter, it is proudly independent, and its market value has not decreased but increased!

This is confidence!

No need to brag or put on data, everyone knows it.

...

As for the annual meeting, a few people gathered together in three or three and chatted.

They are all filmmakers, and they are also talking about "Yunnan Insect Valley" that has been popular recently...

"What's going on with that "Yunnan Insect Valley"?"

“I don’t have enough investment…”

"That's right, Huayi has no money now... but I heard that this movie cost 200 million to 300 million!"

"Who knows where the flowers are gone!"

The movie "Yunnan Insect Valley" is worth mentioning, not only because it is a big IP, but also because it lies in the movie market for Huayi...

"Mobile Phone 2" has been harmonious, and Huayi can only rely on hopes for "Yunnan Insect Valley" now...

Yes, "Yunnan Insect Valley" is very bad, but according to the industry's previous estimates, as long as you bring the word "Ghost Blows Out the Light", no matter how bad it is, you will not be able to sell it even if you are 200 million!

You know, the recognized bad movie "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" sold for 800 million!

"Ghost Blows Out the Light" and "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" are recognized as big ip!

To put it another way, the rise of the IP craze originated from the rapid expansion of the film market, while the classic literature and original screenwriter content of the previous articles were far from keeping up with the market development speed. In order to fill in the content market that was vacant, film and television companies naturally turned their attention to online literature.

Online literature often pursues fast-food reading, and the content itself is very suitable for adaptation into film and television works, and its own fan base brings basic guarantees to the box office.

In recent years, any movie related to tomb robbery will not have a low box office.

Recognized box office elixir.

Guangxian Media once missed "Yunnan Insect Valley" and "Longling Mysterious Cave"...

I should be glad now!

You know, both movies have been produced, and it is said that the production cost has been 500 million!

"The reason is very simple. The copyright is about to expire. Let's talk about it after the release of the screening circle!"

"boss!"

Lu Xiaoran signaled them to sit down and said, "Because the copyright is about to expire, the film company can no longer wait for the production of "Longling Mysterious Cave". There is one movie that will be the last one, so you can get some money back first and then go online in a hurry, so that the special effects level is low, and it is even less than that of ordinary online movies!"

"It seems that big IP is not useful anymore!"

"Not that, big ip is just a neutral word, representing stories that people who have passed the market test. Since the birth of the movie, movies have been closely related to IP adaptations... The science fiction movies we make now are basically adapted from Liu Cixin's original work!"

After a few words, Wu Ershan said: "I went to watch "Yunnan Insect Valley". Director Feixing said that for the sake of third- and fourth-tier audiences, he looked simple and crude, and the plot was like a game. He passed one level after another, killed one monster and encountered a new monster..."

"That's the problem!"

Lu Xiaoran held up the wine glass: "Some of our directors simply and rudely believed that 'those who kill Matt will win the world', and said 'Whoever grabs the market in urban-rural fringe or third- and fourth-tier cities will win the world', and insists on dividing the audience. The movie is not like this. Many of our practitioners always study the audience, not the creation! Whether it is filmed for all mankind or entering their own hearts, it is the original appearance of the movie!"

"Yes, especially now, the audience's aesthetic has improved too quickly!"

"Do you still do "The Investiture of Gods"?"

"Do it, I'm almost finished writing the script!"

"I suggest you focus on shaping Nezha..."

"Nezha?"

"Next year we will have a movie called Nezha, the opening work of the Fen Shen Movie Universe, and a work that has been created in five years. I estimate that it will be at least 3 billion yuan in box office!"

“…3 billion?”

"Well, maybe more than that..."

Wu Ershan thought about it carefully, then nodded...

If we can use Nezha to leverage "Fengshen" to "The Investiture of the Gods", why not do it?

...

Zhong Lifang came over with champagne: "Next Spring Festival is not optimistic!"

"…What's wrong?"

"Zhou Xingxing's "New King of Comedy", director Han's "Flying Life", Cheng Long's "Detective Pu Songling", and "Peppa Pig's New Year", "Integrity Storm"... I'm a little worried!"

"It's okay, in front of "The Wandering Earth", these movies are all bad, and they are dimensional reduction strikes!"

Lu Xiaoran waved his hand.

This is "The Wandering Earth"!

The second wave of Orange Science Fiction Film Project opening work is awesome in terms of quality and content!

“…Will you want to get some support from theaters?”

"No need to try to please theaters. They can give as much films as they are willing to. Starting this year, theaters must know who the boss is!"

Zhong Lifang curled her lips: "It's okay to do this during the general schedule. Don't throw a tantrum during the Spring Festival!"

"I'm not throwing a tantrum...you'll know in a few days... By the way, how is the promotion of "Aquaman" done?"

"...It's okay, we have spent more than 50 million online together with Toutiao and Douyin..."

"Um."

The two were chatting, but they were both beautiful and were taken over...

Du Yan is fully responsible for the daily operation of Orange Entertainment. The ace programs at hand are in full swing. This year, we have created new programs such as "Creation 101", "Informal Talks", "National Treasure", "Seeing Words Like Faces" and other new programs. The ratings and reputation are all very good, and the Orange is a powerful component!

"What's wrong? Sister Du Yan?"

"…I'm ready to do the "Old Friends Without Defense" you told me before!"

"Old Friends Are Not Guard" is the program that Lu Xiaoran and Brother Lai talked about to invite the older generation of Hong Kong filmmakers to do...

It's a bit like "No Defense Tonight"...

"Well, you must invite Ng Mengda, it's best to broadcast it before the Spring Festival!"

"Why?"

"The Wandering Earth will make Ng Man-tat popular again!"

"…The first issue, you have to come!"

"What am I going to do...I have to go home..."
Chapter completed!
