The Best Entertainment Era

　　 Sitting in the coffee shop, Daniel Malick’s eyes hidden behind the lens, have been staring at the glass door, his hands are tangled together and he keeps twisting his fingers, obviously a little anxious.

I ran through so many film companies with DV films, and came to the Saint-Denis Film Festival for screenings, but no one responded. All I heard were degrading and even swearing voices. No one liked this film at all, like he and Ed. The film made by Yado Sanzizi has no value in general.

　　 Suddenly, his eyelids twitched because he saw a familiar face.

　　 The two young men who just opened the door and came in. Isn’t one of them the one who watched for a long time during the screening last night?

　　 At that time, he suspected that the other party was the buyer of the film company.

　　Daniel Malik watched the other party gradually approach, his head kept turning, did he see the value in this film that I didn't know? Or……

　　 may be able to make a fortune from him.

　　 The film was shot, and he took it to the film company to sell it. In addition to the cost of participating in the Saint Denis Film Festival, it cost tens of thousands of dollars.

　　 Anyway, since someone wants to buy it, that’s a good thing. Try to recover the cost as much as possible and pursue greater benefits.

　　 For example, try to issue a contract or something

　　 Try it first, let's talk about it.

　　 Seeing the two approaching, Daniel Malick stood up and took two steps forward and said, "Are you Mr. Anderson?"

　　 "Hello, Director Melick." Ronan shook his hand: "I am Ronan Anderson from Relativity Entertainment Group."

　　 He introduced the person next to him: "This is Tony Koch from Koch Films in Germany."

　　 Both sides greeted each other and quickly turned to the topic.

　　 Ronan was not verbose, and tentatively said: "Director Melnick, I represent the Theory of Relativity Company. I want to buy your film and make a price."

Last night, he thought about it carefully. He brought back 40 million US dollars from Abu Dhabi. There was 10 million US dollars to pay for the Koch Films in Germany, and the tax rebate income was 4.5 million US dollars. 20 million US dollars have been set aside.

　　 Excluding the US$5 million for the acquisition of Embassy Pictures, the actual production budget of the two films is US$30 million. In addition, the promotion and distribution of the two films is still in the planning stage, and there is a large amount of funds in hand.

　　 In addition, Judith from the bank will call him from time to time, so it is not difficult to get a loan from the bank.

　　 If you take this film and run it, there will be no major financial problems.

　　 What is the price? So proud? Daniel Malik grabbed his hand, which is certainly not for him to make a price casually.

　　 "Relativity Entertainment Group?" He wondered.

　　 I have never heard of this company.

　　 Ronan simply said: "This is an integrated entertainment company, with subsidiaries Zhongshahai Entertainment and Embassy Pictures specializing in film production and distribution."

　　Daniel Malik knew of these two companies. Last year, Shahai Entertainment had a horror film that hit the box office at a small cost. He visited Embassy Pictures last year but was rejected.

　　 This person represents relativistic entertainment, and is estimated to have a higher status than the person receiving him from the Embassy Pictures.

　　 "Mr. Anderson." Daniel Malik is in his thirties and has many thoughts: "You want to buy out my "Blair the Witch"?"

　　 Ronan nodded: "Yes."

　　Daniel Malik has a secret joy in his heart, but he forcibly suppresses it. He has finally come to the present. If he can fight for more benefits, he cannot easily give up.

　　 He tentatively asked: "Can we sign an issuance contract between us."

　　 Ronan glanced at Daniel Malik and said, "It's impossible." He showed his tough attitude: "If you only want to publish, we don't have to talk about it."

　　The distribution copyright is not in his hands, and he spends a huge amount of money to operate a small production of tens of thousands of dollars that others can share a large dividend. Does he look like a fool?

　　 If the copyright issue and subsequent troubles were not taken into consideration, he could find someone to make such a film.

　　Daniel Malik was stunned, he didn't seem to expect Ronan to be so tough.

　　 Ronan added another sentence: "This is just a DV video. How many people do you think can be watched in the theater?"

　　Daniel Malik would like to say that his film will be very popular and will surely sell well at the box office, but he is not only treating others as fools, but he is also a fool.

　　 "Sell all the copyrights at once." Ronan didn't seem to value the film very much, and said casually, "Make a price."

　　Daniel Malick thought about it for a while before he said: "Five...500,000 dollars."

　　 Hearing this price, Ronan's face immediately turned dark. If the later operation succeeds, half a million dollars will be a blood profit, but if you can pay less, who wants to pay more?

　　 What's more, the just-established theory of relativity does not have sufficient liquidity, and it can even be said that the company is operating with German and Arab money.

　　 Ronan lightly touched Tony under the table. Tony knew, and immediately said: "This director, just your film, are you embarrassed to ask for half a million dollars?"

　　His voice is not loud, but his tone is very heavy: "Yours is not a movie at all, but a self-portrait DV video. The content is pale, boring, and even shoddy!"

　　 Daniel Malik's face is a bit ugly.

Ronan then raised his hand to stop Tony from continuing to say: "Sorry, my German friend has a straighter character." He said, "But it makes sense. We can barely call your work a movie, a male character in the movie. In fact, it’s quite right."

　　 "What?" Daniel Malik asked.

　　 "I thought I saw a movie about witches." Ronan said slowly, "What I saw was how the characters got lost."

　　 When I just finished shooting this movie, if anyone said that, Daniel Malik would definitely slobber on his face.

　　 But after hitting the wall one after another, I lost such confidence.

　　Daniel Malik retorted: "I used a novel DV documentary technique to shoot, which can give every viewer a very real feeling, and let the audience naturally lead themselves into the world of witches."

　　 Tony asked back, "Is there? What I saw was that the audience could not stand the crude pictures and shaking shots and left."

　　 "This is an innovation!" Daniel Malik is still struggling to fight for his own favorable conditions: "This is a horror movie like a real documentary, a new type that has never appeared in Hollywood."

　　 Ronan laughed: "Director Melick, do you know that innovation is synonymous with risk in Hollywood? I bought your copyright at a high price. Innovation brings me not market and profit, but huge risk!"

　　 He put away his smile: "I can't buy a movie that generates a loss."

"But this movie..." Daniel Malik wanted to argue again, but Ronan interrupted: "Even if this film enters the theater, how much box office can it earn? It is very likely that it will be offline in a week or even three days. Follow-up videotape Do you think sales and leasing will be high? Half a million dollars? I will take back half a million dollars in a few years."

　　 Ronan stretched out five fingers: "Fifty thousand dollars."

　　Daniel Malik is a little anxious: "Fifty thousand dollars is not even enough for the cost I invested!"

　　 "Director Melick~www.readwn.com~ You can make this film at most 20,000 or 30,000 dollars." Ronan deliberately said: "The profit has doubled. In the film industry, this is a huge profit."

　　Daniel Malick distinguished: "I look for the travel expenses and other expenses incurred by the distribution company, and the cost of participating in the Saint Denis Film Festival. Isn't it the cost of this film?"

　　 Hearing this, Ronan quickly judged that there should be no competitors.

　　 So I feel relieved.

　　 Ronan gently touched Tony's foot again.

　　 "You should bear these expenses yourself?" Tony said immediately: "If you don't want to sell, you can take it back and put it in the warehouse to get moldy."

Ronan then said: "The theory of relativity has just been established, and the film library needs to be enriched, so I am willing to invest money in your work, and I will try my best to promote this film in theaters. Director Melick, a cinema film The director is a very valuable asset and will play a very crucial role in your future directorship."

　　 He added: "Whether there is a director who has released works publicly, the treatment received by the film company is very different."

　　Daniel Malik frowned, obviously having his own thoughts, and after a while, he said: "I can reduce it to one hundred thousand dollars, but with conditions."

　　 "It's still too high," Tony said timely.

　　Daniel Malick ignored Tony’s words and said to Ronan: "But Mr. Anderson, your company must push this film into theaters."

　　 Ronan smiled: "One hundred thousand dollars is too high, and the risk is too great. However, the theater distribution is certain. I bought this film and of course let it go to the theater to try it."

　　 Daniel Malik once again emphasized: "I can reduce to 80,000 US dollars, but there are conditions!"
