Legendary Hollywood Producer

The geographical and climatic conditions of an area are naturally closely related to its geographical location.

Los Angeles borders the San Pedro Bay on the east side of the vast Pacific Ocean and the coast of Santa Monica Bay, backed by the rugged San Antonio Mountains, and is located in an open basin surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing the sea on the other. Except for local hills, the city is flat, with an average elevation of 84 meters, located in the Mediterranean climate zone.

The sun is shining throughout the year, the climate is mild, and it is dry and rainless all year round.

Shulman looked at the sun hung high outside, and the harsh sunlight shone on him, making him feel like he was about to be melted, and his whole body was sweating.

Dou Da's sweat swept from the tip of his nose and fell to the ground. Shulman took out a pack of paper towels that had not been used up from his pocket, took out one, and wiped the sweat from his face.

It didn’t take long for the company’s publishing department to be established. Even if Schulman had transferred all of his staff to integrate channels, it was still not enough. So today he came to several areas around Los Angeles to familiarize himself with the situation.

Shulman has already visited a lot of places in the morning. He has some understanding of the general distribution of theaters here and the populated communities. However, it is not enough to know this. He has to communicate with the theater owner and talk to nearby people. If you communicate with the wholesalers of videotapes and DVDs, you also need to look at the employees of the company’s newly acquired distribution channels...Anyway, it’s a long-term job.

Shulman went to a cold drink shop, and after sitting down, ordered a glass of iced lemonade. He is sweating badly and needs a break. Shulman was blowing in the wind, and his body finally felt better.

There are communities all around here, crowds are very concentrated, there are several movie theaters and video cassette purchase sites, and the people responsible for wholesale bulk video cassettes also live here. Shulman just finished greeting these people and communicated.

It has been more than half a year since I bought the four distribution companies. The internal personnel situation has been settled. Most of those employees have stayed at Manhai Entertainment. They are responsible for doing almost the same things they did before. They communicate with the theaters to show movies and are responsible for regional issues. Some of the posters (mainly outdoor hard advertising), the peripheral distribution of video tapes and DVDs, the sale of movie derivatives, and so on. However, some of the resources of Manhai Entertainment after the acquisition have overlapped, and it needs to be adjusted internally. There are also some areas without company employees. These need to be fixed. These personnel matters consume so much time. Not to mention the communication and greetings with people in various industries, but fortunately, the most critical personnel issues have been fixed, and the rest is nothing more than taking some time.

Shulman finished his lemonade, got up to pay, and walked into a theater next to him. After running through these restaurants, California was almost done. In the remaining states, some people from the company went to do all of this. After that, a North American channel that truly belongs to Manhai Entertainment will be established.

At this time, Roman was invited by George to come to Paramount Pictures to participate in an internal meeting. As for how internal the internal meeting George said was, it is not known. Roman would not believe it anyway.

Roman, who was sitting next to George, listened to the reports from overseas distributors of Paramount Pictures.

"The movie "The Infected" has won a total of US$356 million in the overseas market, including: Australia 17 million, Smecta Country 24.8 million, Singapore 9.86 million, Germany 13.4 million, France 8.63 million, and Italy. 8.3 million..." The white man with a Mediterranean hairstyle who stood up continued to say in his calm tone, "Island has no box office yet. They will not be released until early August. Other regions The number of viewers has decreased a lot. At present, the box office of "Infected" is declining every day. Excluding the island market, it is estimated that the total overseas box office of the film will be around 400 million. Whether it can exceed 400 million, we still need to watch the movie. There won't be a big downward trend. If the "Infected" has not fallen as much as it is now, the box office will exceed 400 million."

The middle-aged white man with a Mediterranean hairstyle put the papers on the table and said, "My situation is over." Then, he sat back in his seat.

The president of Paramount Pictures sat in the first place. After listening to the report from the Mediterranean, he nodded and said with a smile, "The North American box office is 202.3 million, and the overseas market has a box office of 356 million. Together, the movie already has The box office of 558.3 ​​million is expected to exceed 600 million. We can all say that we have achieved very good results."

"Yes."

"Very good box office."

Many senior Paramount personnel underneath expressed their approval.

"Mr. Roman, according to the agreement, you can take advantage of the profit. We at Paramount can first pay $50 million to Manhai Entertainment, and wait until the movie "Infected" is drawn from most areas, and then pay the rest. "Paramount's president looked at Roman with a smile. This time the cooperation with Manhai Entertainment was quite good. He also plans to pay a little sincerity to win Roman.

Roman was a little surprised when he heard this. He originally thought that when he came here today, he would hear Paramount Pictures delaying the distribution of profits, but he didn't expect Paramount to be so straightforward. After paying off the amount twice, the first payment was 50 million. This is already a very favorable price. After all, they can delay the settlement of the profit until the film is fully released. There is no problem in doing so. When Roman comes Just thought of this possibility. Unexpectedly, Paramount would be so bold.

"We are all working well together, Mr. Roman, I hope that next time there will be a chance to cooperate, Paramount will not treat the collaborators badly." The President continued to win Romance. After he discovered that Manhai Entertainment is a high-quality partner, Just know how to treat Roman. Treating different people requires different attitudes. A high-quality production company like Manhai Entertainment is a goal that needs to release goodwill.

"I also look forward to cooperating with Paramount Pictures." Roman is so shallow that he has no further ideas. Anyway, when there are new movies, North America will release them by themselves. As for overseas, who will give them the best conditions. For whom, Roman is most concerned about fairness and justice. How can you play binding? That is an insult to several other companies that have overseas issuing conditions. Roman firmly resists this kind of black box operation.

I didn’t hear Roman’s positive answer, and the president is not upset. Sincerity has already been given. As long as Paramount can be given priority in the next cooperation, it is very convenient. As for directly agreeing to cooperate, Hollywood is not so stupid. People, the conditions are not given, how to discuss cooperation, the president is very thorough.
