He said, "the previous cooperation is a simple group purchase or pre-sale, and this time we are" elated "joint production side, we both have more in-depth cooperation. ”

Through the pre-sale to the film distribution upstream

The United States group Cat's eye film initially by the movie tickets to cut, and now has launched a choice of seats, community and other functions.

And for the film side, through and the United States team Cat's eye film cooperation, can directly reflect the effect directly in the box office, changed the previous film promotion only to do publicity exposure, can not effectively convert to the final box office situation.

But both Wang and Wang Yibing said the current cooperation was "stones". But to be sure, whether it is as a film side of the Dongyang moon, or as a sales channel of the United States, have a strong desire for this cooperation.

When it comes to this cooperation, Wang Yibing revealed that he had found Wang on his own initiative. The two sides chatted for a night to finalize the cooperation, Wang said, "Our cooperation is very smooth because I have a but no B, they have b without a, the two sides are complementary".

In the current film distribution system, the United States into the film industry chain upstream, bringing the Internet platform to subvert the traditional film distribution channels of imagination. But Wang repeatedly stressed that "the cat's eye has done is only an important supplement to the existing sales system", he and Wang Yibing also agreed that "the current film distribution channels are very complex", the United States Group of the cat's eye film to do more or "incremental."
