Chapter 334: 2 strong carve-out period
Friday, October 29.
Wald Pictures’ long-planned new work "Reaper is Coming" is officially released online in major theaters in North America from now on.
As soon as was released, it swallowed a lot of film output from dozens of film companies, which accounted for more than 25% of the film output of major theaters in North America that day.
Many people in charge of small and medium film companies stomped with anger, but helpless.
"Damn Zhuke Wald, there is such a high lineup~"
Lionsgate owner Gusta, gritted his teeth in the office alone.
"Huh~"
"This group of theaters is not a **** thing, each of them is the master of the high and the low. Isn't it because the Lionsgate film industry has been established soon, and the scale is small. Well, in the future, the Lionsgate film industry is bound to grow and grow. To the point where the major theaters dare not ignore it."
I have to say that Gusta is really ambitious.
In the trajectory of the original time and space, Gusta’s Lionsgate film industry has indeed developed rapidly. It has successively annexed some assets of Summit Entertainment, MGM Pictures, etc., and became the top ten film company in North America in one fell swoop, and it has been brewing for ten years. Over time, overseas distribution channels second only to the six major distribution forces have been established.
You know, this is something that DreamWorks failed to accomplish!
And, apart from the lack of media power, Lionsgate founded by Gusta is quite strong in the production field, almost not losing the Big Six.
However...
His current strength is still weak, he can only smash his teeth and swallow blood.
awkward~
Of course, the theaters in North America are not very friendly!
"It's not that Gusta will get revenge by saying revenge in the future!"
In the North American cinema market in the late 1990s, although there were many hills and many independent cinemas, the cinemas were somewhat weaker to the production companies. However, with the emergence of the three cinema giants AMC, Emperor Entertainment, and Ximanke, Big Fish Eats Xiaoyu's situation is already unstoppable.
The three major theater giants have completely integrated the North American theater market in just a few years, occupying 92% of the theaters in North America. Since then, they have ended the "Spring and Autumn and Warring States" disputes and entered the trio.
The theater side is beginning to become extremely strong!
By then, the three major cinema giants will have great confidence in the face of many Hollywood studios.
The Sixth Big Do not dare to hide its edge!
Even the three major theaters of AMC, Emperor Entertainment, and Ximanke brazenly swallowed more revenue from the production companies and increased the profits of the theaters.
The theaters are not easy to mess with now, and the future will be even stronger~
......
"Reaper is Coming" is released!
Warner Bros. Pictures’ new work "Hunter Mansion" was also released at the same time as today, occupying more than 24% of the film schedule.
"Everyone, we have to clarify a fact!"
Barry Meyer, the new president of Warner Bros. Pictures, faced a group of executives and said loudly: “No matter how we fight or fight with Wald Pictures, that’s the next thing. Our first thing is to deal with Wald Pictures first joined forces to suppress a group of small and medium-sized film companies and carve up the entire Halloween schedule!"
Join Wald to divide up the schedule?
After hearing this, everyone was amused.
An executive laughed and said: "Associating with Wald Pictures, I am a bit unhappy and unwilling, but the snipe and clam are competing for profit. Those small companies wanting to seize the market are absolutely wishful thinking."
profit!
Everything is for profit!
As one of the Big Six, Warner Bros. Pictures, backed by the world’s largest media, Time Warner Group, is certainly not afraid of Wald Pictures, but the current schedule is an endless battle with Wald. Not wise~
Defeating Wald Pictures, what can Warner Bros. Pictures get?
is just a fiction!
A large company like Warner always prioritizes its interests. Even if it defeats Wald Pictures, the effort will be huge. On the contrary, it will benefit a group of small and medium-sized film companies, which is not in the interests of Warner.
"Well, there is something called tacit understanding!"
......
at the same time.
Wald Pictures.
"This section is the most important thing, of course, it can't attack Warner and Warner's new work "Hunter House"!
Zhu Ke laughed and said: "I am not stupid. Naturally, I will kick out some movies first, get more film volume, and get the most profit. As for the conflict with Warner... In a few days, even if we don't do it, Warner will do it too."
After hearing this, everyone nodded and said yes.
Old Bill smiled and said: "In the Hollywood field, the boundaries between friends and enemies are blurred, or it can be said that they don’t exist."
All contradictions and conflicts, their explosive point will always be a conflict of interests!
...
With the tacit action of Wald Pictures and Warner Company, well, that is, the plan of "first jointly sweep out a group of small and medium film companies, and then fight."
Once the tacit action came out, the power of the two major media groups was unfolded, and the overwhelming propaganda power was not an existence that could be resisted by a group of small and medium-sized film companies.
The films released in the previous few days have seen their box office plummet!
The heads of major companies complained endlessly!
"Damn Wald Pictures, **** Warner Bros. Pictures~"
Xie Yi, the boss of New Line Pictures, yelled: "Their two shameless companies have already accounted for more than 50% of the film output, but they are still not satisfied. They will point the finger at us poor bugs?!"
He has a hunch... After tomorrow, Wald and Warner's new works will most likely exceed 60%, 70%, or even more!
As expected!
When the second day came, the film production of the two film companies, Warner and Wald Pictures, increased by a large margin.
The film volume of "Death is Coming" reached 31%;
The number of films in "Hunting Mansion" has increased astonishingly, surpassing Wald Pictures in one fell swoop, reaching 33.7%.
Even Zhuke is speechless.
"嚯~"
Zhu Ke looked at the report and had to sigh: "The Big Six is the Big Six. This method is indeed not comparable to what we are now. Look at the North American market on the 29th. Our movie "Death is Coming" had a clearer box office. The box office of Warner's "Hunter Mansion" was more than US$3 million higher, and it was No. 1 in the box office yesterday. However, the increase in our film schedule is still not as good as Warner!"
Logically speaking, "Reaper Is Coming" ranked No. 1 at the box office yesterday, and the ranking increase should be the biggest;
However, the reality is that Warner’s "Haunted Mansion" movie is the biggest beneficiary.
"Boss, relax."
Old Bill smiled and said: "If Warner doesn't have this means, then it will be called one of the Big Six in vain!"
Zuke nodded.
Wald Pictures is able to compete with Warner for a while, but it can only be a short-term battle. If you fight for a long time, Wald Pictures will undoubtedly lose.
Talent reserve, capital, background, historical factors, political power behind...
The lack of these factors is the fact that Wald is less than the six major facts.
Old Bill smiled again~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Even though Warner is the biggest beneficiary this time, we are not bad, and we can even surpass it later. However, the rest of the small and medium film companies are miserable~"
Small and medium film companies, are they miserable?
awful!
is miserable!
Many film company bosses are so angry that they scold their mothers~
"Shameless!"
"The photos of their two film companies are really ugly!"
"Yes, they joined hands to carve up the market and time slots. This is not giving us a way to survive!"
"Look, take a good look. In just one day, the revenue of our major film companies has either plummeted by 30% or by half. Even some of the film companies' films were directly withdrawn by the theaters. ~"
Wald Pictures and Warner Corporation have joined forces to carve up the market and suppress a group of film companies. Is it despicable?
Yes!
It is despicable!
But, this is reality!
Between countries and people, there is no exception!
Gusta, the owner of Lionsgate, is undoubtedly a very wise man. While many film companies are struggling, he did not give up resistance and surrender, but chose to increase capital investment.
"Withstand this offensive~"
"Don't look at the tacit understanding between Warner and Wald, and they are jointly dividing the market. However, there is a lot of trouble between them. Take a look, I am sure that in a few days, the two companies will start Fight against each other, then we will not worry that we will not have a chance to rise again."
The first update of "" is sent.
