“MGM?”

After Chris shouted this name in confusion, he sneered with extreme contempt: "Shao, you have been deceived."

Immediately afterwards, he knew it as much as possible: "MGM was once the leader of Hollywood, but what era was that? Since the Paramount Act, MGM had to give up its screening rights and go with the flow and ups and downs in Hollywood."

"Hero Huayi belongs to a newly emerging company, and MGM has become a bad ship!"

"1994-2001 should be considered a period of MGM's glory. "The True Lies", "The Speed ​​of Life and Death", "Hannibal", "The Pretty of Law", and "The Shocking Cannibal" are selling wildly, but this doesn't count for Hollywood. There are only five big-selling movies in seven years, and other movies are either tied or lost money. Do you know what the annual output of Hollywood is? Do you know how many movies there are in MGM's movie database? I tell you, there are about 4,000 nearly 5,000 movies in MGM's movie database. Do you think how many movies they will make a year? Can these five hot-selling movies support them for seven years?"

"In 2002, Wu Yusen's "Face Change" and "Mission Impossible 2" made MGM see the dawn again, but the next "Wind Whisperer" almost made them lose all the money they had just accumulated. Not to mention in the past two years, who doesn't know that MGM is borrowing money to live, and you want to cooperate with them?"

call.

Chris gasped and said, "You might as well tell you the truth, if MGM didn't have so many movies that would allow them to borrow money. They wouldn't be able to support today."

"Aren't you afraid of not being able to recover the money by selling Source Code?"

Chris looked at Shao Yingxiong and advised with a cautious look on his face: "You really want to lean with MGM, you will be dragged down! Don't forget that the financial situation of hero Huayi doesn't have to be much better than MGM."

"We're different." Chris was instantly full of confidence: "As long as you are willing to give up the adaptation rights of this movie, we will give 5 million! This money plus your box office profits and the transfer costs of audio-visual product rights can almost pay off one-tenth of the debt. Is it necessary to consider?"

"Oh~~~~" Shao Yingxiong replied with a long voice: "That's the case."

Shao Yingxiong took advantage of the conversation and nodded quickly: "Lao Ke, it's a blessing to have you, otherwise I'll be cheated to death."

Lao Ke?

What is this called?

Chris hesitated for a second, then began to wait for Shao Yingxiong's answer. He had already said everything he could say and couldn't say. It depends on Shao Yingxiong's next choice.

Unexpectedly, Shao Yingxiong took out his cell phone and dialed a phone number. The moment the phone was connected, he scolded him: "Zhang Wan, don't you want to do it anymore? Ah! Colombia is such a good environment and you still want to buy the adaptation rights of our "Source Code". It's over if you sell it to others. Why do you have to make a MGM if you don't take care of it? Can MGM cooperate? They may not even be able to have a meal tomorrow. You said, are you collecting MGM money?"

"What?"

Shao Yingxiong took the phone and looked at Chris, as if he had said something: "How much do they give? 10 million? Or dollars?"

He covered his mouth suddenly, then looked at Chris with great embarrassment, as if this action was frozen: "Okay, is it useful to give 100 million? If MGM filed for bankruptcy, you and I have to eat chubby food!"

“Cash check?”

"You went to the bank to check it? You said you could cash it out directly?"

Shao Yingxiong looked at Chris again. He simply turned his head and hid in his eyes when he showed him.

"Ao, ao... wait a moment. What you heard was not a false accusation, right? Why do I think this is like a trick of two companies breaking each other?"

"So, I'm here now. I'll ask later. I'm sure this is their false accusation. I'll call you back later."

Shao Yingxiong hung up the phone and directly changed the topic: "Lao Ke, I have to ask you something. Zhang Wan, the general manager of our company, said that when he contacted people from MGM, there was no fire in Columbia Corporation. He also said that the account details raised by bribery after bribery your company's accountant showed that the North American box office of our "Source Code" had already been recorded in your account. Uh... it shouldn't be like this? You said that we have such a good relationship and we have a lot of business in everything we do...Lao Ke, could it be that you forgot? You recalled the memories carefully, did the people below not explain it clearly to you? In fact, the box office in North America is already in your hands. You are just too busy and didn't have time to tell them to transfer money to us?"

"False accusation, all of this is false accusation!"

Chris slapped his desk and shouted, looking like he was about to go wild.

"I just said it was a false accusation!" Shao Yingxiong followed and said, "I've thought about it. If you follow the situation you said, where will MGM get this check of ten million US dollars? You only gave five million, maybe you're talking about rmb... So, I'll call the police when I go back, maybe there's a commercial fraud here." Shao Yingxiong stood up and said, "Lao Ke, then you stay, I'll go back first, this matter makes me unable to stay. If this kid wants to make a fuss from me, he has to consider the speed of our account. I promise that if he really intends to lie to me, he will be seen through before he can get to the airport from Hero Huayi."

Scam... Chris looked at Shao Yingxiong's eyes and said, "Shao, what's the matter of adaptation right?"

"When can't we talk about it when we are so close? Now I have to go back to the company immediately. I will treat you another day."

Shao Yingxiong ignored him at all, got up and left.

"Shao, Shao..."

...

Downstairs of Columbia, Shao Yingxiong in a gray suit sat behind the driver in a black Mercedes-Benz, and Zhang Wan sat in a position that should have belonged to the boss.

"Boss Shao, why did I feel so awkward when I heard Chris call you? Shao, Shao, our village's handlebar-style donkey carts are like this." Zhang Wan and Shao Yingxiong were not at all, making jokes that should not belong to the boss and subordinates.

"Is it a little serious?" Shao Yingxiong glared at Zhang Wan and said, "I'm learning from the upper floors. Why are you happy on the phone? If I don't cover the phone, your laughter can reach Chris' ears. Why didn't you let his secretary hear it?"

Zhang Wan restrained his smile and asked, "Boss Shao, do you think we have ordered thoroughly enough? I'm always unsure. If Chris doesn't understand that we are referring to him, not talking about MGM but about their Colombia, what should I do?"

"What should I do? I will sue him after the contract period!"

Shao Yingxiong said fiercely: "The most wrong thing we do is not to feed him. Once some people get used to eating, they think that some money that should not belong to them is worthy. He is not happy if you don't give it to him. You treat him as a friend, and he treats you as a sucker now."

"Our "Twilight" is still in their hands." Zhang Wan reminded.

"That's why I said the contract period." Shao Yingxiong thought, "But he should be able to understand. We have been here for many years. If we can't even appreciate this, why are we going to make a living?"

"drive."

The car was fired from the roadside on the road, and the black Mercedes-Benz quickly poured into the traffic.

Sometimes people are pretty cheap. Once you get used to grab food from other people's bowls, you should think that it belongs to you when you see something delicious in your bowl. This problem cannot be changed. When one day you tell him, "get away, this is my food", he can hate you. For this food, he wants to suck his teeth and think about you, and he has to think, "If you don't give it to me, I will kill you." There are many bitches like this, and there are many people around everyone in the streets and alleys. They will appear around everyone in a way that they eat and drink. They always have no more than 100 yuan in their pockets and are familiar with everyone. Not only are they poor and have no ability. But they wear smooth clothes every day, like a successful person.

Chris has his own abilities, but Hollywood companies are used to the profits of Chinese film production companies. Every movie they get released in Hollywood was purchased at a buyout price before 2007. Films like "Hero" that achieved great overseas box office results made them profit one after another, and they also spoiled these guys. Therefore, the emergence of "Source Code" became the "food" in Chris's eyes, as if this plate of food did not belong to Shao Yingxiong, and should have been placed on their table.

And what about us?

Due to insufficient technology and promotion level, I often suffer great losses on this, and I still stick to my own territory, without any enterprising spirit, and never any film production company wants to go to the international box office.

This is the sadness.

If Xiangjiang did not take making money as its mission and repeated the movie routines, but wanted to innovate and go out in the most glorious era of the Xiangjiang film market, not just to send stars like Cheng Long and Li Lianjie out, would the result be different?

Will this development line in China become the next Hong Kong? At the end of 2014, wouldn’t our 5 billion actor Huang Bo have no impact on the international market? If the money is exchanged for US dollars and deducted to a foreign actor who is scattered, you can see what they will look like! International superstar!!!

Whether it is "Thirty-Three Days of Love Break", "Lost in Thailand" and "The Road to Flowers", such movies that cost a lot of box office have made us accustomed to using the smallest resources to obtain the greatest benefits in the game. But the reason for this movie is the viewer's perspective of the current era. What if it changes the background? It is true to be a small fighter, this is also the most basic business common sense, because even if it is a loss, it will not hurt the muscles. This has caused a box office miracle that we can understand but others cannot understand.

But Hollywood doesn't do this. Most of the time, they still focus on the main background in the United States, but the story is just absurd and bold in any corner.

"Transformers", "Thor", "Pacific Rim", "Super Battleship", these successful ways of adapting from comics, games, or movies adapted from pure imagination rely on simple plot and technological means to be super cool visual experience, but no one dares to learn it. Even "The Future Police" starring Andy Lau is in return for endless ridicule, and no one praises its spirit of exploration. Why?

Why do we know that if we simply rely on "The Road to Flowers" and "Lost in Thailand" that wins by tricks cannot compete with blockbusters, once people begin to stop accepting comedy and the comprehensive box office collapse of Hong Kong, we will have nothing but do so?

Shao Yingxiong couldn't figure it out, so he planned to take the first step forward, and he had to take the first step forward.

"Brother Zhang, after the celebration banquet, I will contact Industrial Light and Magic, which is the company that helps Star Wars and Transformers produce special effects. I need to talk to them."

"By the way, you have to help me contact MGM. Colombia cannot continue to rely on it, so we have to prepare in advance." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
