As the strongest contestant at this award ceremony, the crew of "Titanic" is naturally the finale.

Investor Xia Tian and Wang Xian, director James Cameron, and his dear wife, Linda Hamilton, the actor of Sarah Connor in the "Terminator" series, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, the beautiful little plum, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet...

Every one is a Philly murderer. Once he appears, he will be the focus of the media's pursuit. Now that the group appears, it will naturally be more eye-catching.

From the moment they stepped on the red carpet, the reporters on both sides pointed their cameras at them. The flash flashed and the sound of clicking the shutter was constantly.

The audience all burst into anger and shouted their names loudly, making the others on the red carpet look like they were furnished.

After walking the red carpet, Xia Tian and others were invited to interview.

"Mr. Xia, congratulations, you have invested in Titanic, Air Force One, Mind Catcher, Los Angeles City Secret, and the Man in Black all of which have been shortlisted for this Academy Awards, and the total number of shortlisted is as high as 33, which is simply unmatched." The host said with a smile, "Then I would like to ask you, how many awards do you think the movies you invest in can finally win?"

"Of course I hope it will be better." Xia Tian smiled, "But I haven't thought about how much it is. I think I'm already very lucky to be shortlisted."

"Mr. Xia, you have been shortlisted for five consecutive Academy Awards, which is really amazing." The host asked curiously again, "How can you invest in so many good movies?"

"First of all, I will read a script for a movie. If the script is well written, then no matter how bad the movie is, the degree of degree will be limited." Xia Tian explained with a smile, "Besides, I will look at the director's attentiveness. It is actually easy to see whether a person is dedicated to his work.

For example, director Cameron made several special trips to dive into the deep sea on a submarine to observe the sinking Titanic from close range. This level of attentiveness is not something that ordinary directors can do.

If a movie script is good and the director is attentive, then the possibility of being a high-quality product is very high, so I am naturally willing to invest.”

"So that's it, thank you for sharing." The host smiled.

...

After the interview, everyone entered the Grand Theater and the waiter led the front seat.

Along the way, many people stood up and expressed their greetings and congratulations to Xiatian.

Although with the development of special effects technology, Hollywood movies have found a selling point that attracts audiences again, making it flourish again, with annual total box offices getting higher and higher year by year, and even box office masterpieces like "Titanic" and "Jurassic Park".

The situation of major film companies is gradually improving, such as Paramount, Fox, Warner, etc., have emerged from the haze of losses and ushered in new life again.

However, summer's power in Hollywood has not been weakened by the revival of its opponents. Instead, it has become bigger and stronger.

The reason for this is mainly because under Xia Tian's wise leadership, Universal Pictures and the world's production have produced many fine products. The box office earned by the films launched by these two film companies alone accounted for nearly half of the total annual box office in the United States, making other film companies out of reach.

Secondly, summer's industries are very complete, and can complement each other's advantages and promote each other. Before, summer had already used Snow Media to promote its own movies.

Now, in summer, there is a high-traffic information platform like Lexiang Reading, with more than 10 million visits per day, making it the most popular information platform in the world.

With such a platform, summer can easily create topics and make the movies you invest in extremely high exposure. Lexiang Reading users are usually middle- and high-income earners, and their purchasing power is the strongest and the largest audience for the movies. Therefore, in summer, using the Lexiang Reading platform, a large number of viewers can be called to watch in the theater.

In addition, the Tianxia Wallet launched in summer also allows users to purchase tickets online, pre-sale in advance, and benefit in advance. It not only promotes Tianxia Wallet, but also allows funds to flow back as soon as possible.

Generally speaking, the box office of a movie will only be shared with the publisher after the movie is finished. After the publisher gets the money, he will share with the producer.

The whole process, from a few months to a year, is common.

Especially small film companies, they are most bullied and are often shared by people withholding box office. As for directors, actors, crew members, etc., they are even more unlucky, and being owed to pay is not uncommon.

Although big film companies can get a better payment in advance, and even before the popular movies are screened, theaters can even pay a deposit, but it will take some time to divide the box office and get it all.

After all, the theater chain still has to collect accounts, calculate, and post accounts. It is already very good to be able to get all the money in the first quarter.

Now, through the Internet ticket sales, the movie sharing is directly from the website, so the speed of repayment will undoubtedly be greatly accelerated. The speed of repayment will be equivalent to increasing working capital.

The most important thing in the film industry is money. Only with money can we produce new films, develop special effects, make celebrities famous, and invite big screenwriters and screenwriters and big directors to shoot...

Thinking back then, the reason why Hong Kong films flourished was because of the injected large amount of funds into the Hong Kong film industry, which allowed it to maintain the production volume of hundreds of movies a year. With such a huge number, it is naturally not surprising that a few excellent works were produced.

But now, the annual output of Hong Kong movies is less than twenty, and even in proportion, the number of high-quality movies is greatly reduced.

World Production and Universal Pictures can get payments faster, which increases their working capital, and naturally has more capital applications and makes it easier to produce high-quality products.

It is not that easy for other film companies to learn.

First, they do not have their own online ticket purchase website. If they want to build a website, investment is not a small amount of money.

Second, if you cooperate with other online ticket purchase websites, it will also be subject to checks and balances by ticket purchase websites, and the payment speed will not be accelerated.

So this is a unique advantage of Tianxia Production and Universal Pictures, and it is difficult for other film companies to compare with it.

Thanks to these competitive advantages, although Hollywood is prosperous again and other film companies are revitalized again, they still have no way to compete with Xia Tian.
