Chapter 088 Those who play with newspapers are too dirty(1/3)
A few hours later, he parted ways with Du Qifeng and others at the entrance of the set. After a while, Zhao Donghuai took Guan Jiahui and He Qing's three daughters to Zou Wenhuai's banquet. It was not for other reasons.
Hong Qinbao called again and said that he wanted to choose the heroine for the second part of Lucky Star, and asked him to give his opinion, so let's take her with her.
In this kind of collaboration, there is a high probability that Hu Huizhong will be chosen for the second part. Only Sister Hu can play and be responsible for the comedy. Guan Jiahui and He Qing really have no intention of beating up the girl. At this stage, He Qing has been responsible for overcoming various problems such as singing skills.
She is still the lead singer in the tentative group, so she can't just wait to lip-sync every day.
Guan Jiahui is responsible...with both voice and emotion, in the final analysis.
Several cars arrived at Fushan Road in Wong Tai Sin District. As soon as Zhao Donghuai and his party got off the bus, they saw He Guanchang coming over with Hong Yanbao, Lin Zhengying and others.
When they met, He Guanchang held Director Zhao's hands and shook them, "Sheng Zhao, you are awesome, I admire you!"
"I knew last time that Director Zhao is young and promising, but in a short period of time, you will break the record of Xinyi City. It's really amazing!"
The last time He Guanchang came to visit him, he just wanted to cooperate and talked about the international stage and so on.
That time, he only used Cheng Long's glory in the island country market to seduce Zhao Donghuai. This was really impressive.
Have you ever seen people from Hollywood giant Warner? After watching Hurricane Rescue, you want to encourage Lin Zhengying to go to Hollywood? Warner is also greedy. Back then, it cooperated with Golden Harvest to make Bruce Lee's Enter the Dragon. Regardless of the total box office, Warner's share was much larger than Golden Harvest.
.
Headed by He Guanchang, Hong Qianbao and Lin Zhengying couldn't say anything. On their way into the hotel, a group of people saw Zou Wenhuai and Cheng Long waiting outside the private room.
After another polite conversation, after entering the table, He Guanchang, Hong Yinbao, Cheng Long, Lin Zhengying and others toasted a few glasses of beer and talked about some scenes. Zou Wenhuai smiled and said, "Director Zhao, I am working hard in the film industry.
For the rest of my life, I will call you Ah Huai because of my age."
"This is Mr. Ross from Warner Bros. Mr. Ross would like to help you release Hurricane Rescue at A-Mei's house. What do you think?"
Zhao Donghuai looked at Ross with a smile, "Mr. Ross's hair style is very good and trendy."
Many people were speechless, but Ross touched his hair handsomely and said, "Really? Thank you, I'm Irish."
This is a conflict caused by purely cultural customs. In China, the meaning of cuckold is a bit special. Saying you have a green head is a curse word. However, in Ireland... there is a large-scale Cuckold Festival to commemorate the patron saint in Irish mythology.
"Zhao, I will pay you one million dollars to buy out the theater and video distribution rights of Hurricane Rescue in Amei. Europa can also provide another one million dollars. As far as I know, the distribution rights of your Hong Kong films in Southeast Asia can be
Selling it for 10 or 20 million Hong Kong dollars is a lot."
"Just treat these two million knives as if you picked them up."
"In addition, on behalf of Warner, I would also like to jointly invest in Hurricane 2 with you and Mr. Zou. What do you think?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Donghuai was silent for dozens of seconds and then said, "I want 5 million dollars for the theatrical distribution of Amei's family. Let's not talk about the video tape for the moment. I also want to see the distribution strength of Warner before talking about whether it is a cooperation with Hurricane 2."
"
How much was the box office of the original version of Rescue 1? A-Mei got 140-500 million dollars, and Europa and other places also had 700-800 million dollars.
A total of more than 200 million US dollars in box office, taxes, theaters will be cut in half, 60%, and the rest will be divided into tens of millions of dollars.
Even if this version is all Chinese and will not adapt to the local conditions after it is released in Amei and Europa, buying out the theatrical distribution and video tapes for 2 million dollars is too nonsense.
Treat him like a fool.
Video tapes are even more deceptive. Don’t forget, Jet Li’s future Dark Knight and Fist of Fury were all box office hits on Hong Kong Island. However, A-Mei’s video rental and sale netted more than 50 million U.S. dollars for the two films! A discount of more than 400 million Hong Kong dollars.
Black Man, a superhero movie, alone sold more than 36 million U.S. dollars.
That's Jet Li, the all-Chinese-starred Black Knight and Fist of Heroes! It's really not a fluke that Ajie can get a high salary in Hollywood.
Based on the performance of Rescue 1, even if the box office fails to support it, the video market has great potential.
For example, similar action movies starring Lin Zhengying in the future will continue to generate huge profits.
This is also one of the main reasons why he couldn't sign A Ying fully and wanted to praise Liu Dehua again.
However, Zhao Donghuai knows that Hollywood has always looked down on the world outside Hollywood, that is, in the simulator.
I wanted to try to get the copyright of Back to the Future, but I got scammed several times.
He only offered 5 million dollars to buy out the theatrical distribution. He was very sincere and wanted to take advantage of the situation and sell the subsequent rights at a higher price.
If Hurricane 1 is willing to suffer a big loss, and the Hollywood theatrical distribution can sell out, the more Warner makes, and if it wants to cooperate with Hurricane 2 in the future, it will have to increase its price, or a big price.
As long as Hurricane 1 can sell tens of millions of dollars at the box office in theaters, if someone wants to buy the rights to remake it in Hollywood, they can make up for the loss in box office and distribution shares, and they will not give up the video revenue.
As soon as these words came out, Ross laughed exaggeratedly, "Zhao, this joke is not funny. Let's do this. For 4 million, I will buy out everything, including theatrical distribution and video tapes."
"If you're saying no, you're really saying no to the opportunity!"
"With 4 million dollars, I picked up more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars. What else do you want?"
While laughing, Ross became more arrogant and domineering. Even so, Cheng Long, Hong Yinbao and others were stunned and their eyes almost popped out.
Cheng Long was slightly better, his salary was 4.8 million plus dividends, Sanmao was really...his eyes were a little red, it was a bit like picking up more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars in cash at once.
Guan Jiahui and the other girls were so shocked that they gasped in shock.
This is caused by the limitations of the times.
Zhao Donghuai also smiled, "No, you are robbing money, my conditions are still the same..."
Ross's eyes widened, and Zou Wenhuai hurriedly interrupted to smooth things over. He realized that the conversation might break down if he didn't interrupt.
Even Zou Sheng and He Guanchang joined in. A few minutes later, Ross still drank a glass of wine and stormed away. Before he left, he cursed in English for being disrespectful.
Zou Sheng and He Guanchang dropped a few words to persuade Ross and left for a while. They also ordered Hong Yinbao and Cheng Long to accompany Mr. Zhao.
The group of people left. Hong Qianbao poured a full glass of beer and drank it all in one gulp. "Director Zhao, you got more than 20 million for nothing. You really refused like this?"
So what if Plan A can sell the equivalent of 100 million Hong Kong dollars in the island country? After paying the tax, the island country theaters will take half or more, and Zou Wenhuai's Golden Harvest will take the remaining half.
The bonus guaranteed to Cheng Long is in the millions, and it is impossible to say that it is divided in absolute proportions. Otherwise, it would be Cheng Long's first time to participate in a Hollywood blockbuster. He would get 4.8 million Hong Kong dollars, while Hollywood stars would easily earn 4 to 5 million US dollars.
, he would not be so shocked and shocked, and began to work hard in Hollywood. He fought repeatedly until he jumped off a building and succeeded in the red district.
Aaron in the popular zone has his life tied to his belt. He doesn't just want to be famous, but he also wants to earn tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars or even more from one movie!
Seeing the shocked and unbelievable expression on Hong Qinbao's face, it turns out that Guan Jiahui and He Qing's girls are similar. Everyone knows that the boss should be very rich and not short of money, but the specific wealth is a mystery.
Even Jia Hui, who often delivers water to put out fires, doesn't know that much.
Zhao Donghuai was very calm, "Brother Sanmao, I started my own company to sell movies, and this is how I made money. My movie in New World, East Asia and Southeast Asia outside of Hong Kong sold for 15 million. Now, someone is selling "Hurricane Rescue 1" for 20 million.
Let’s talk about it again.”
"Those ghost guys are so useless. They just want to make a lot of money. They are not even willing to give us any amount of money. Four million dollars is just to send beggars."
"Don't talk about that, let's have a drink!"
If his theater chain is to be launched in a month or two, it will definitely not be enough to rely solely on his own company's films. New World 2 plans to squeeze in the theaters by then and strive for a good start.
Hong Qinbao is a good partner. Originally, he was invested in Pan Disheng, and Debao also made a lot of money.
The copyright of the Five Lucky Stars series is in the hands of Jiahe. Not to mention the ingenious tricks. In the future, when Brother Hong went to help Debao film, he also helped Jiahe take photos of Lucky Stars, Summer Lucky Stars, Wealth Train, etc.
However, he also made a lot of money from his series of Double Cannons, Three Treasures of Wisdom and Courage, Royal Senior Sister, Wealth and Power, etc., which he branched out from the Five Lucky Stars.
In order to attract film sources and team members for new theater lines, it is quite appropriate to win over Hong Yinbao. However, there is no need for him to talk about theater lines now. As long as he mentions overseas distribution, Lao Hong's ambitions will skyrocket and he is just waiting to run away.
.
When he raised his glass, Hong Yinbao seemed drunk, drinking one glass after another. He said he was staying to persuade Director Zhao not to be angry? But at this moment, Sanmao felt that he was the worst one.
While a few people were eating, drinking, and chatting, there was a sudden argument outside the private room, which was getting louder and louder. When Zhao Donghuai looked outside... Lin Zhengying decisively went out to see the situation. Could it be that Zou Sheng and
That cuckold is wrong, the green-haired ghost Ross got into a fight?
It shouldn't be.
After the door opened, A Ying was speechless and realized that it was Director Zhao and several bodyguards who were blocking the two strangers. The strange man named X was drunk and was spraying A Guang wildly.
A Ying hurriedly came back to report.
Zhao Donghuai shouted, and A Guang, who was leading the team outside, and several bodyguards watched two strange men walk in together.
The leader was about thirty years old, slightly chubby and with short hair. He glanced at the crowd, turned his attention to the three girls Guan Jiahui, and laughed, "Who am I to bring bodyguards to dinner? It makes people laugh.
Daya, you are the little director who helps Uncle Six make movies, your surname is Zhao, right..."
A Guang had already walked over and whispered in Zhao Donghuai's ear, "This man's name is Ma Qingwei. He is the prince of Dasheng Bank and Real Estate Group. He has tried to pursue Miss He more than once, but we have stopped him. The flowers and gifts he sent us are usually thrown away."
."
Zhao Donghuai laughed. Who does he think he is? He is not bragging, but with the good looks of the three girls, Guan Jiahui and He Qing, they have been posing for debut photos in newspapers, attracting countless fans, and collecting newspapers has become a trend.
Ordinary people cannot do anything but collect newspapers.
Needless to say, it goes without saying that you have power.
In a world without the influence of Zhao Donghuai, in the future trajectory, this Ma Sheng will win by relying on his wealth and power. There are also various rumors that her daughter-in-law Chen Meiqi could not bear the harassment of the mistress during her pregnancy, such as calling her in the middle of the night to taunt her, and finally
I was stimulated to have an unexpected miscarriage and got divorced.
In the initial reports, the gossip about the phone call that caused her miscarriage was always pinned on Guan Jiahui.
Later, after Chen Meiqi became famous by performing the role of Xiao Qing in the New White Snake Legend, she was interviewed on a TV show and said that the people who harassed her on the phone and stimulated her to have a miscarriage were actually many women... It was just that Guan Jiahui was the most famous at that time, and it hurt her.
The miscarriage gossip news only fell on Guan Jiahui.
Reporting on an unknown woman is not popular in the news.
At that time, Kwan Ka Wai could not bear the harassment and accusations. She publicly wrote in handwriting on the show that she had never seduced this student Ma. She showed it to the public in handwriting, but no one believed her.
After Director Zhao traveled through time, various butterfly effects caused Guan Jiahui to be different from her original trajectory.
But Ma Sheng ran out again? Listen to A Guang, what is this guy planning to pursue?
This is quite normal. If not, why would he hire dozens of male and female bodyguards from the mainland? When he formed such a girl group lineup in this era, A Min was one of the successors. Waiting for A Min, A Zhen and so on.
To be continued...
