One-on-one Hollywood 897 author Qianduxue full text 3639 words

Tang En was no longer a fledgling young man a few years ago. In order to increase his popularity, he did not hesitate to speak in a high-profile manner in the media. Now, everything he deals with will have a larger perspective. For example, his willingness to promote the filming of "Mulan" did indeed help Miss Zhang's film career. But wouldn't it help him? At present, New Universal is competing with Disney for the mega-project of the Magic City amusement park, which involves billions of dollars in funding. He is thinking of a way to open up official relations in China. In an official-based country, the market competition is very fake and fake, and the official relationship is the kingly way. It is a hundred times stronger than Disney's foolproof market competition strategy! During the market-oriented reform of Chinese films, both the Film Bureau and China Film are eager to cooperate with Hollywood to enhance their international influence. "Mulan" is likely to be an opportunity! In the same way, this time at the Tribeca Film Festival, Tang En was really moved with compassion and wanted to help these low-level independent filmmakers. However, while helping, he does not forget to bring benefits to himself. Like now. Dunn seems to have replaced Robert De Niro and became the center of the party! Concerning their vital interests, everyone is paying attention to Dunn's attitude. As if Dunn was the heart of the independent film scene. Of course, the core is not the core, Dunn doesn't care, and he doesn't like it. He also has more far-reaching layout plans. Tang En said: "If you want to change the status quo of the independent film industry, the old mode of operation will definitely not work. In the past, Harvey Weinstein was able to help a little, but could not solve the problem fundamentally. I have two solutions here, everyone will study Let's see if it works." "You say it!" Robert De Niro said quickly with a straight face. Tang En said solemnly: "First of all, we must re-examine the meaning of the traditional cinema chain in the new environment. The resources of the cinema are limited, and it is unrealistic to want to push every independent film to the cinema. However, the cinema chain is only Is it a movie theater? Not necessarily! In addition to movie theaters, there are many public places that need to show movies publicly, such as flights, museums, galleries, clubs, open-air theaters, schools, hospitals, military, aircraft carriers, etc. People in these occasions are the same They are also eager to watch movies. Why not open up this market?" "This... I'm afraid it's not easy to supervise?" Robert De Niro looked hesitant. Will this work? In a movie theater, each person has one ticket and buys a ticket to enter, which is to pay for intellectual property rights. However, in places like museums, galleries, and clubs, it is impossible for everyone to have one vote! In many cases, museums and galleries buy film rights and then show them to customers for free. This is against the interests of filmmakers! Dunn glanced at him and asked back: "Supervision? Why supervise?" "Huh?" Robert De Niro was slightly startled. Martin Scorsese said with a smile: "I understand what Dunn means, most of the independent films... To be honest, not many people have seen them, and most of them were bought out by the distributors at very low prices. Copyright has filled the film library. Instead, why not let more people see it? Word of mouth is also propaganda. Maybe, through a wave of screenings in multiple venues, the word of mouth will promote the next DVD release. and sales." Robert De Niro pondered slightly. Dunn added: "Therefore, the theatrical release of the film and the DVD release must be carried out simultaneously. Independent films are not Hollywood commercial films and do not have such a large audience market, especially in the absence of publicity. Tribeca Film Festival The conference will be held for 2 months. During these 2 months, the film can quickly complete the distribution of various channels, sell the copyright, complete the distribution, and collect funds by taking advantage of the fame of participating in the Tribeca Film Festival. , this is the only chance! The longer you delay, the more disadvantageous it will be." These remarks caused many filmmakers present to change their expressions slightly, and they were quite critical. They are all independent filmmakers pursuing film art, they are artists! However, what Dunn said was too straightforward, a bit like taking their artworks to make money. Although everyone comes to the film festival, it is to make money by selling films. But speaking so blatantly made these artists a little embarrassed. As if they all fell into the eyes of money. This is New York, not Hollywood! Even Martin Scorsese felt that Dunn's proposal was too bold, and pondered: "Don, this is too challenging, the movie was born a hundred years ago, and you have never operated in this way. This model lacks respect for art films." Then, he gave Tang En a wink and asked him to pay attention to the way he spoke. Dunn almost fainted! respect? This group of people, one by one, the poor are all jingling, still want the respect of art? Really... um, have a backbone! Tang En was secretly contemptuous, and a smile appeared on his face, "It may be that my expression was not accurate enough, which caused some misunderstandings. I mean, it is not easy to promote independent films. If you want more fans to see the film, The Tribeca Film Festival is an opportunity not to be missed. Of course, it can't be a simple and crude DVD release, but a more artistic way." "Artistic way?" "Of course! Know Netflix?" "Put Netflix, a DVD rental company with nowhere to go, is forced by Bestard? Of course you know!" Tang En said with a smile: "Netflix is ​​a website, a web-based video rental company, and currently has more than 16 million members. I plan to let Netflix launch a separate section of art films and cooperate with several major independent film festivals. Whenever there is a major independent film festival, Netflix will introduce corresponding introductions in the section of art films, and introduce them to the huge number of independent film festivals. There may be 20, 30, or 40 of these excellent works in the exhibition of the user group of 100 people, it doesn’t matter, we can talk about it slowly.” For these filmmakers who pursue art, the Internet is still a new thing. However, the current Netflix is ​​too famous! Even the giant Blockbuster, under the competition of Netflix, its performance is increasingly sluggish. In particular, Dunn intends to launch an exclusive section of the independent film festival on the Netflix website, which is even more attractive. In the traditional mode, the Tribeca Film Festival can only select 15 films from the more than 120 films participating in the exhibition and push them to theaters and video-on-demand stations. Other movies are destined to be released on DVD silently, and then disappear. Tang En used the Internet and Netflix to come up with this new model, which is likely to double the number, which is too important. This means that their chances are doubled! This is a real benefit! Robert De Niro understood and said excitedly: "Dawn, are you serious? Can it really be done?" Dunn said confidently: "Netflix is ​​my company, if I say it can do it, just do it. Sure!" Tang En didn't like the oil and water in the independent film circle. He will go to great lengths to get Netflix to cooperate with the independent film industry. In addition to making a small sum of money and helping a group of independent filmmakers, there are actually more important layout plans. For the longer-term interests of Netflix! In the future, the rise of Netflix will be unstoppable after the network speed limit is broken and streaming media emerges. At the same time, in order to maintain the originality and uniqueness of the content, Netflix's self-produced drama is an inevitable way to go. You can make your own TV series, make your own reality shows, make your own sports shows, and even make your own movies! In the past life, Netflix invested in many movies. Movies of this type will be available in cinemas and Netflix at the same time. This model, of course, will affect the box office data of the movie, but it can greatly improve the attractiveness and shock of Netflix! How happy are the members who can see the movies that are being shown in the movie theaters on Netflix? However, this model has greatly challenged the film tradition, and has been unanimously opposed by filmmakers all over the world, including Spielberg, Nolan and others, all raised their arms and shouted, demanding that Netflix's films be banned from running for the Oscars! Even the Cannes Film Festival has firmly stated that Netflix is ​​not welcome! The reason is very simple, Netflix's movies, the wrong way! Movies should be shown in movie theaters. "Movie + cinema" is the real foundation of film. After the screening cycle of the cinema is over, and the core process is completed, there can be multi-copyright sales of TV, streaming media, DVD, etc. This is called peripheral, and it is auxiliary. Netflix put "streaming media" and "cinema" at the core of the juxtaposition, it's just wrong! Simultaneous release, it cannot be called a movie! Or, it can only be called a TV movie! A TV movie can't go to the Oscars, it can only go to the Emmys, which logically belongs to a TV show. It can be said that the synchronous distribution model developed by Netflix has attracted a lot of users and bonded the loyalty of many users, but it has been greatly opposed by Hollywood filmmakers. What Dunn is doing now is to plan ahead! Take the independent film first! Use independent films as a tool and become the initiator of multi-copyright "simultaneous distribution". With an independent film, even Spielberg can't say anything. He may dare to challenge Netflix, but does he dare to challenge the independent film circle? The bosses in this circle are Hollywood bosses! Most of the older generation of filmmakers were born in the independent film industry. As long as independent films are used to broaden the pattern of the film market and allow filmmakers to recognize the new business model of "simultaneous release", when Netflix emerges in the future and launches the "simultaneous release" model... there will be no one. I can gossip any more. It is impossible for these people present to see through Dunn's long-term layout. No one is jealous of money. Dunn provided them with an opportunity, which was equivalent to giving them money. Who can refuse? When Dunn showed his last move, they completely worshipped, "Before, Miramax was working hard to maintain the common interests of this circle. Now, that **** Weinstein has been arrested. However, the interests of independent filmmakers cannot be compromised. Well, I will let Focus Pictures open a branch in Tribeca, so as to better contact you, get in touch with more and better films, and support more More and more excellent filmmakers!" Dunn linked each other. No one can refute. Just bitter Robert De Niro. The "core" position he finally created was about to be snatched away by Tang En in a few words? Miramax is disabled, and another Focus Film is here? Okay! You media giants are so powerful that you really need to fight for every inch of land. Even the meager interests of the independent film industry are unwilling to let go! Robert De Niro was about to cry. Please remember this book's first domain name: .
