Entertainment: The opening and the official announcement of the national goddess

Chapter 658

"Understand!"

"Director Su, you are welcome!"

The bosses said politely.

These people are not fools. They are very clear that since the Department of Culture has already intervened in this matter, the focus must not be on the internal issues of the Huaguo entertainment circle.

Moreover, the people who participated in this meeting were the bosses of the entertainment companies that cooperated with Suo Li. Needless to say, they knew that this matter must have something to do with Suo Li.

Sure enough, after Su Changde finished speaking, he glanced at Zhang Xiao.

Zhang Xiao understood, coughed, and said: "Bosses, I don't like to talk nonsense. Suo Li built the original in China and bought the distribution rights of your movie with a low-interest loan of [-] million U.S. dollars. Obviously, it has ulterior motives. "

"Recently, everyone knows that they let "Battle of the Red Cliff" and "Zhu Xian" compete in the ring, but I dare say this is just the beginning, and it is very likely that your other companies will be next, my It means that I hope everyone cancels the cooperation with Suo Li."

A boss smiled wryly and said: "Mr. Zhang, I'm not afraid of your jokes. According to the agreement we signed with Suo Li, we have to pay [-] million US dollars to recover the distribution rights of the film."

"If we can get this money out now, it will be a pain in the ass, and if it's not good, it will go bankrupt and go bankrupt."

Another boss said, "That's right, since the "Battle of the Red Cliff" incident, who wouldn't want to get the publishing rights back, but there is really no money at hand!"

Others also complained one after another, probably meaning that they have no money in their hands now.

Zhang Xiao knew that these people were the ones who didn't see the benefits, so he said, "I can use the same interest to pay you [-] million US dollars to help you recover the distribution rights of the movie."

"What conditions?" Everyone turned their attention to Zhang Xiao.

Everyone knows that there is no free lunch in the world, and they want to hear what conditions Zhang Xiao offered.

At this time, Yang Mi said: "We know that you have eight film quotas every year, and you can get at least 15.00% of the film screening rate of Suoli Cinemas. Our condition is very simple, that is, you will share the eight film quotas with us. For the fourth part, the number of staff going to the theaters will be allocated to two of us in sunny days."

"Everyone can rest assured that as long as the movies you produce are good enough and the attendance rate is high enough, our Sunny Cinemas will also give you a super high schedule."

Hearing Yang Mi's words, these bosses immediately became interested and said, "Okay, no problem, I agree."

"I agree!"

"Yes, yes, such a good thing, of course we all agree."

After everyone finished expressing their opinions, Yang Mi continued: "The second condition is that the loan should be repaid in four years, with 2000 million US dollars plus corresponding interest per year, and you must use the shares of your respective companies as guarantee."

"During this period, the online copyright of the film and television works you produced will be handed over to us for release on Qingtian. The specific profit distribution method is the same as the rules formulated by the Qingtian video website."

Regarding this condition, the bosses also quickly agreed: "Anyway, the Internet copyright is given to everyone, and the distribution of benefits to Qingtian is the same, so I agree."

"sure, no problem."

"···"

"The third condition is that other than Huayi, major companies cannot have any form of cooperation with Chen Gang and Chen Feng."

Hearing Yang Mi's words, Wang Jun trembled all over, looked at Yang Mi and said, "Mr. Yang, are you going to ban Chen Gang?"

At this time Zhang Xiao said lightly: "We mean that the cooperation between the director and the actors is okay, but we can't invest in Chen Gang's film and television works. As for Chen Feng, they can't do anything at all."

Yang Mi nodded and said: "We only have these three conditions. If there is no problem, we can sign the contract now."

Wang Jun's face was extremely ugly at the moment, but there was nothing he could do.

The life and death of "Battle of the Red Cliff" depended on Zhang Xiao's thoughts, and Wang Jun didn't have any leverage to negotiate with Zhang Xiao.

As for the CEOs of other companies, they fully support the third condition. Although Chen Gang is one of the three major directors in Huaguo, he has only made films for Huayi in his life. Over the years, the films invested by these production companies have been controlled by Chen Gang. defeated.

Now that Zhang Xiao proposed such a condition, they naturally agreed without any questions.

Besides, between Chen Gang and Zhang Xiao, a fool would know to choose Zhang Xiao, so how could he possibly side with Chen Gang?

Whether it's director ability or banknote ability, Zhang Xiao is [-] blocks ahead of Chen Gang.

Even Chen Gang and other production companies are enemies. For Zhang Xiao to block Chen Gang's investment, not only is there no harm to these production companies, but it is a good thing.

"I agree!"

"Our company never had the opportunity to invest in a film directed by Chen Da, so we agreed."

"Okay, that's perfectly fine."

"···"

Hearing what these bosses said, Yang Mi smiled and said: "Since everyone agrees, then wish us a happy cooperation."

"Pleasant to work with."

Except for Wang Jun, the other bosses took advantage of a lot, so they all had bright smiles on their faces.

Two hours later, everyone signed a contract with Sunny Entertainment.

Zhang Xiao took out a check on the spot and handed over [-] million US dollars to the CEOs of the top ten entertainment companies.

After everything was settled, Zhang Xiao walked up to Wang Jun and said, "Mr. Wang, I will announce the news of the new schedule of "Zhu Xian" tonight. How your "Battle of the Red Cliff" can reverse the unfavorable situation is up to you. It's up to you, but I only have one request, that is, you can't use me and Qingtian for publicity."

"If there are media interviews, I won't say a good or bad thing to you, and of course, I won't say a bad thing to you either."

Wang Jun asked: "Then if it is published overseas, can it be scolded?"

Zhang Xiaodao: "The theater chain I have in hand will give you 15.00% of the film schedule in the first two days. If the attendance rate is high and the box office is not bad, I will increase the corresponding film schedule for "Battle of the Red Cliff" according to the actual situation."

"On the contrary, if "Battle of Chibi" doesn't work, then you can't blame me. After all, I have to take care of the interests of other shareholders."

After hearing this, Wang Jun nodded quickly and said, "Okay, thank you very much."

Zhang Xiao is a shareholder of Disney, Warner, Universal, and Sunshine, and he was able to contribute 15.00% of the film schedule. This is the first time in the history of overseas distribution of domestic films.

It can be seen that Zhang Xiao is very sincere in supporting domestic films.

Regarding the signing of this contract, the Department of Culture is also very happy to see that not only the distribution rights of the top ten film production companies have been taken back, but Zhang Xiao has also turned the other side into an army.

Forty films per year, with a 15.00% screening rate, is enough to cause Suo Li a headache. Originally, the Department of Culture was a little worried that the theater chain built by Suo Li would affect the development of the Huaguo film market. Now Zhang Xiao has made such a move It turned out to be a good thing.

After Zhang Xiao returned home, he immediately contacted Disney CEO Herman.

"Change the schedule of "Zhu Xian"?" Herman on the other end of the phone said with a sad face after hearing Zhang Xiao's words: "Mr. Zhang, which schedule do you want to change to? You won't be fighting our Disney movie, right?"
