"You really only want two million?"

"It's a one-time thing? You won't continue to blackmail me for money?"

"How is that possible?"

"Boss Han, who do you think I am?"

"I always keep my word, why would I lie to you?"

"What good does it do me to lie to you?"

"To tell you the truth, I actually paid the majority of the cost of booking the venue myself, but I think it's too boring to pay for it myself. It's better to find an ally."

"How about it?"

"Shall I add you too?"

"Then... add one more."

"You've said so, is it okay if I don't contribute the money?"

Wu Di clicked his tongue, very dissatisfied.

"Boss Han, I finally understand why Jingjing doesn't want to talk to you."

"You deserve it."

"what do you mean?"

"What's wrong with me?"

Han Jing looked confident, and that was correct. How could a conceited and narcissistic man like him be aware of his own problems?

"Boss Han, as a man, the most important thing is to be honest, especially for men. Isn't it good to be frank?"

"Although we haven't met much and don't know each other well enough, based on my impression of you, I think you are a really awkward person."

"I am also puzzled by this. Look, you are young and have a successful career. The most important thing is that you are good-looking and decent. But why is this character so awkward?

"

"If you have any ideas, just say it directly. We are all men. If you tell the truth, can I still eat you?"

"What's more, you also know my financial resources, and this is indeed within the scope of my affordability. I can't let you lose everything, so just put your heart in your stomach."

"As a friend, I suggest you be more open and honest next time, whether to Jingjing or your girlfriend."

"As a man, passion is more attractive, right?"

Han Jing didn't want to talk to him, decided on a way to pay him, waved his hand and left.

Wu Di could only look at his back and sigh.

How can young people be so unwilling to accept opinions?

Whether you are a man or a woman, it is not good if you have an awkward personality. You will know it when you encounter something.

Is this... done?

Wu Di put his hands in his pockets and got two million comfortably.

The name of a big star is really easy to use. You can easily get so much investment with almost no other strings attached.

Although of course Wu Di would not cheat Han Jing, and would divide the money in a strict manner when it was time to divide it, but this trust is also very valuable.

I can only say that no wonder others say that once they enter the pen, pigs can become prosperous and make a fortune. This may be the reason.

After all, everyone trusts your profitability and is willing to invest in you or even borrow huge amounts of money.

With this money as start-up capital, it will be difficult not to make money.

For ordinary people, let alone two million, even if it is reduced by another zero, there is no chance. It is definitely not that easy.

In fact, Wu Di just saw Han Jing and wanted to try his luck. It was okay for him to pay all the money himself.

Now Han Jing is given a chance to make money, but he doesn't know how to be grateful and doesn't know who his benefactor is. It's really pitiful.

With this amount of money, for a movie like Labyrinth, it is enough to build momentum in the early stage.

If it is a movie of the scale of The Orphans, this amount of money will never be enough. First of all, you will not be able to pass the cinema level.

There are also differences in the number of screenings in cinemas. There are large and small screenings, and there are also some medium-sized screenings, such as large screenings, which require hundreds of people per room.

If a movie wants to book a movie theater, at least a dozen tickets must be sold before the movie theater will show your movie honestly.

I’ll save this one for you. If it’s a small venue, it would be much more convenient. If it’s full, there might only be a few dozen people.

If the venue is reserved, five or six people will be enough.

Why should we reserve the venue? What can it reflect?

In fact, these five million are not only the cost of booking the venue, but also the sales volume at critical moments, and the sales volume is an obvious behavior.

As the name suggests, buying tickets costs money. Of course, in order to do the most with the least money, film companies still have many ways to buy tickets.

For example, by cooperating with relevant theaters, using members to purchase tickets, or purchasing group tickets, it can be at least half cheaper than normal on-site ticket sales.

Even if it is cheaper, it is still a genuine small ticket. Therefore, compared to buying tickets directly, more smart people will choose to book the venue to build publicity for their own movies.

As the name suggests, we have reserved the entire venue, but there is a difference between a private venue and a private venue.

Sometimes, the theater is reserved just to invite relatives and friends to watch a movie. In that case, the movie tickets have to be actually sold.

Cinemas also like this kind of private theaters, because not only do they sell tickets, but there are actually live people coming in to watch the movie.

This scene is considered to be played effectively.

The other method of booking a venue is very risky for movie theaters.

That is to buy a few tickets and reserve the theater, because for cinemas, no matter how exciting a movie is, it often cannot be 100% full.

At least, the first three rows of seats are usually not bought by anyone.

Generally speaking, for theater movies, the most popular ones, the attendance rate is basically maintained at around 8%, which is considered normal.

Of course, this 8% is also the comprehensive result of the total attendance rate. Ticket warehouses and cinemas with good facilities have extremely high attendance rates.

They cannot be compared.

In other words, for movie theaters, as long as the average attendance rate can be achieved, this movie must be played.

There are also requirements within the industry for opening rates.

If this average attendance cannot be reached, it may not matter during the off-season. Many movie fans will also find that some of the niche films they watch can be screened as usual with only two or three people at a time.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But during popular periods, movie theaters will not lose money and make money like this. At that time, they will transform into box office machines and behave very cold-bloodedly.

As long as your movie does not do well at the box office, even if you have agreed on a film schedule, it will not help. Who is telling you not to make money?

If you don’t make money, can you still delay others from making money?

The competition for movies in popular schedules is very fierce. Once they find that another movie is more profitable, the theater chain will mercilessly cut off your movie schedule and replace it with another movie.

Not to mention this, there is something even more cruel.

Sometimes, the audience will find that the movie they have bought is not showing the movie, but has been replaced by something else.

Just because the attendance rate of the movie you bought was not up to standard and there were too few people, the theater manager just waved his hand and changed it to a blockbuster movie.

As for your ticket money, you either have to wait for the platform to refund you, or you have to torture yourself and watch a popular movie with someone else.

After such an operation, all your film schedules will be ruined. What else can you say about the box office?

Therefore, many fans and film producers, in order to let cinemas insist on showing their own movies, will use the tactic of booking out theaters.

By buying a few tickets for each show, the cinema cannot give up. So, what is the use of this?

Aren’t you still able to sell only these few tickets?

Of course that's impossible!

This is equivalent to an advertising act, that is, using the act of booking the venue to secure the right to screen our movie.

In this way, when the audience chooses to watch a movie, they can see our movie at the same time, which gives them more choices.

In fact, to put it bluntly, whether the film crew or the fans reserve the venue in this way, the purpose is to attract more passers-by to enter the venue and give themselves a chance.

Often, such reserved seats are easily discovered by ordinary people. Since the popularity of ticket purchasing software, computerized seat arrangement and seat selection have become more and more popular, making it more and more convenient.

The audience can easily see the seat purchase status of the movie he is about to purchase from the computer screen.

It is clear which seats have been purchased, which ones are still vacant, and which seat you have chosen.

With such a seating map, the behavior of booking a venue is basically clear.

Generally speaking, since you want to attract passers-by to the venue, you must leave good seats for real passers-by to watch the movie. Therefore, when booking a venue, you will choose seats in the corners.

Anyway, the seats are against the general movie-watching habits of passers-by. They are either in the first three rows or in the corners. In this way, it is too obvious.

There is also a professional term for this kind of booking behavior: locking.

Such lock-up behavior actually disrupts the market, but in 2010, no one cared about it.

No one will dig deeper.
