Chapter 102: Want to go to North America?

"Who is it?" Gao Yuanyuan asked curiously, because Chen Hao spoke English, so she didn't understand.

"A liar. Chen Hao didn't have a good air, but looking at the pure and charming Gao Yuanyuan under him, he laughed again, "Leave him alone, let's continue." ”

......

In fact, before Universal and Weinstein, there were film companies that had already inquired about the copyright fees of "Moon".

Seeing that "Moon" has become a popular film, the price is bound to get higher and higher, so they want to be the first to start and keep the price lower.

Universal's $1 million is already considered a bit sincere, but it obviously does not meet Chen Hao's expectations.

As for Weinstein's 5 million, it was a liar, and Chen Hao didn't even think about selling 5 million just for the North American distribution rights.

However, after Universal and Weinstein, Chen Hao soon met another Hollywood studio, Warner!

In fact, Warner came to China earlier than Columbia, but he should be more well-known in the record industry, and many well-known singers in China have signed Warner Records.

As for the film, there is little action, and Warner's first Chinese film to participate in investment is "Left to Right", and this film will not be released until next year.

However, at the beginning of this year, Warner International Cinemas has officially opened in the imperial capital, and it is obvious that Warner is also eyeing the gradually opening mainland market in China.

Among the major Hollywood companies, Disney, Sony Columbia, Warner, and Universal are the four companies with the most relative ties to China.

Warner's offer was more sincere, with the North American distribution rights directly giving $1.5 million.

This price is very much in line with Chen Hao's expectations, but the North American distribution right is 3 times the global copyright of "Comet".

And this price was not low in 2002.

However, just as Chen Hao was thinking about whether to agree, Davis from Sony Columbia called.

"Chen, congratulations, "Moon" was a great success. Davis praised.

"It's okay, I didn't win the award!" Chen Hao smiled.

"Okay, without further ado, I'm going to buy the rights to Moon. Davis was straight to the point.

"I'm talking to Universal, Weinstein and Warner right now. Chen Hao pulled up the banner and sat firmly on the Diaoyutai.

"Okay, Chen, none of them value you as much as I do, I understand you, and the price I give you will definitely satisfy you, and I can even give you a ***!" Davis said confidently.

Chen Hao was scared when he heard this, what do you mean by *** once? I don't need this damn thing, "What did you say?!Are you sure the Chinese characters you use are accurate?"

"Of course, I'm sure. Davis swore by it.

Hearing this, Chen Hao said directly, "Don't contact me anymore." With that, he hung up the phone.

Just when Chen Hao was feeling nauseous, Davis called again.

Chen Hao didn't answer, Davis continued to play, and in the end, Chen Hao, who had no choice, could only connect again.

"Chen, did you misunderstand? Did I offend you somewhere?" Davis wondered.

"Don't, don't offend me!" Chen Hao rolled his eyes and said, "Give you another chance, what do you mean by what you just said?"

Davis immediately thought about it when he heard this, and felt that he was not wrong, "I mean that Colombia can buy the entire global copyright of "Moon" except for the mainland of China at one time, is there any problem?"

Chen Hao was stunned when he heard this,, it's a ****!

Uh, I can only blame you Lao Mei for being too open, which makes people have to think crookedly.

"Davis, your Chinese proficiency needs to continue to improve!" Chen Hao said dissatisfied.

Although he didn't know where he made a mistake, Chen Hao definitely knew more Chinese than himself, so Davis sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry, Chen, I don't have any bad intentions." ”

"Alright, I forgive you. Chen Hao said, "Then let's talk about you this time!"

"The North American distribution rights of "Moon" are 1.5 million, the peripheral rights are 1.2 million, Europe is 1 million, Asia is 500,000, and Central and South America is 500,000, a total of 4.7 million US dollars. Davis said.

Chen Hao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and packed 4.7 million US dollars at one time, that is, nearly 39 million yuan, and of course gave 30% to Huaying, and he also had to pay taxes.

But filming "The Moon", Haotian didn't spend money at all, and there is also a share of the mainland box office, so it seems that he can make a lot of money this time.

However, Davis opened his mouth to 4.7 million, which should be able to rise a little more.

"I don't have an opinion on the rest, but the copyright around North America is 1.2 million, and Asia is only 500,000, is it too little?" Chen Hao said.

"Well, I'll give you another 300,000 to make $5 million, and that's it, OK," Davis said.

Chen Hao nodded when he heard this, this price is good, it meets his expectations, and he saves himself from going to someone to talk about copyright fees, and Davis is not bad.

After all, I still want to earn the difference in the exchange rate of the US dollar, and it is necessary to have a close-knit Colombia.

Seeing that Chen Hao didn't answer, Davis immediately said, "Chen, this price is already very high, and it's very convenient, isn't it, I have a suggestion that you would like to hear?"

"What suggestions?" Chen Hao said curiously.

"Do you want to go to North America?" Davis asked with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Chen Hao was stunned when he heard this.

"Think about Li Press, Wu Baige, think about "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Changing Face", "Mission Impossible 2", haven't you thought about going to North America to explore?" Davis said demagoguously.

Chen Hao's heart moved when he heard this, did he go to North America?

He really hadn't thought about this before, at least not before he mixed up in China.

But the downturn in the domestic film market at the beginning of the century did surprise Chen Hao.

And now it will be at least six or seven years before the mainland film market becomes popular, and Chen Hao doesn't want to wait so long in vain.

It is too difficult for the mainland to make money from movies now, so Chen Hao has the idea of making the difference in the exchange rate of the US dollar.

It's just that Davis's proposal gave Chen Hao a new idea, he can go to North America to make films, and then make money to return to China, which is also to earn the exchange rate difference.

And it can also borrow Colombian funds and global distribution channels, which is much stronger than the sluggish domestic film market.

I can participate in the investment, I believe that Colombia will agree, in addition to some must-earn movies, Hollywood companies know how to share risks, so it should not be a problem to participate in the investment yourself.

However, when I arrived in North America, I was not familiar with the place, and North America was a producer-centric system, the director's power was not as great as in China, and there was a more important issue of the final editing right, and so on, which must not be bypassed.

However, no matter what, making money all over the world with the help of Colombia is indeed a huge temptation for Chen Hao, who is now poor.

Even if there are great difficulties, Chen Hao believes that with his golden finger and the experience of his previous life, he should be able to overcome it.

As long as the cooperation is successful, it will be much easier to follow, and it will no longer be a big problem to make money on your own.

Moreover, the beginning of the century is the heyday of Chinese film power in North America, although it is not necessarily cooperative, but there are two kung fu superstars, and the influence of the two directors is in.

Chen Hao can still borrow some momentum to reduce the resistance he encounters in Hollywood.

When Li Lianjie and Brother Long return, Wu Baige also quits Hollywood, then the Chinese film force will be completely withdrawn from North America, and it will be difficult for a Li to stand alone, and he will not be able to make the climate!

If you miss this opportunity now, it will be completely impossible to take advantage of it in the future!
