Chapter 444 Different Asian Elements
You really can't talk about luck. Bushu and his son, can be regarded as tragic presidents, one overturned when the victory was in hand, and the other not only suffered 911, but also suffered a subprime mortgage crisis at the end of his term. One after the other echoes each other, to be honest, if the willpower is lost, it can already collapse by itself.
"Old wrinkle, come, try this big red robe. I know I like this, someone sent it yesterday, and I heard that there are not a few catties a year. That is, you are more knowledgeable, and if you come to a John Cow who asks for milk, it will be a waste of good things. ”
"Haha, that's a blessing, the authentic big red robe, I haven't seen this for many years, and I can't buy it with money. Zou Wenhuai sighed a little, when he knew this guy, he already thought that this guy was very good.13 But over the years, he was stunned to find that the gap between himself and others was getting bigger and bigger. Now I can still sit together and drink tea, to be honest, that's because people care about the old feelings.
This thing sounds like a, ghosts are ghosts, not to mention that they are only half Chinese blood, even if they are ABCs, or have eaten foreign bread for a few days, you are talking about tradition with them. If there is no use value, it is superfluous to look at you.
"Old wrinkle, the general climate dictates it, and now we all pay attention to an internationalization, you are nesting in that pond in Xiangjiang, even if you make a movie and tell you, it is also difficult. ”
Lao Wrinkle looked at the furnishings around and couldn't help but sigh, there are rumors that William White is very familiar with Chinese culture. At first, he was a little unimpressed, liking antiques, and in general, it was just a demand for profit. But everything around me shows that this guy really likes it.
For the general climate that William White said, he can only secretly slander himself, I guess you are also one of the victims, if there are not so many DVDs, your box office should be even more crazy.
"Brother William, I am already old, and the little girl's ability is also very limited, it is not easy to keep this family business, how can I be too demanding. ”
For this, William White is also helpless. Although Xiangjiang has also introduced a modern enterprise management system, the tradition of father-to-son succession still occupies the mainstream.
It's hard to say whether it's good or bad, if you have the right successor, then don't say anything, which is naturally a good thing. However, the times are different now, young people have their own ideas, you like to make movies, I like to hold a scalpel. It is absolutely impossible to give up your life for the sake of the family business.
Of course, William White asked him to meet, and of course he wouldn't talk about these things. This is someone else's family matter, and naturally you need to solve it yourself.
"Lao Wrinkle, I will tell you the truth, with the continuous growth of the rabbit country's economy, no one can give an accurate prediction of the future potential of this market.
In the next period of time, White Pictures, Disney, Marvel, DC, NBC, my entertainment industry will make some changes. ”
Zou Wenhuai's eyes froze, he knew that the main dish was coming. He's a busy man, and William White is only going to be busier. This kind of leisure for drinking tea and chatting will not appear to them at all.
"You say, let's see if there's anything we can do to help. ”
"Adding Asian elements, this is not only Xiangjiang, but also the excellent actors of the rabbit country. The films we started this year, whenever possible, will try to increase the number of scenes of Chinese Americans.
Of course, many may just be cameos for friendship, and some characters may just be vases.
Alas, it is also said that Xiangjiang's movies are not competitive, if they can still maintain a strong position in Asia. ”
Speaking of this, William White was puzzled. Once upon a time, actors like Big Brother Cheng and Shenxian Fa occupied a very important position in both Yuben and Smecta. Not to mention PK with their local actors, even in the face of Hollywood, they are not afraid at all.
This is actually not surprising, Europeans and Americans are face blind, and the aesthetics here in Asia are also different. When you go to Asia, it's the same, and your kind of muscular men are not to be seen here. As for the goblins who look like gourd babies, well, I'd rather go to see the snake spirits here.
Or because of the Asian financial crisis, anyway, since 97, the speed of the fall of Xiangjiang movies is simply incredible.
Adding Asian elements was originally very simple, but now due to the depravity of Hong Kong films, this task is not so easy to complete. Represented by Columbia Fox, they have already begun an Asian strategy. From the framing of the movie to the selection of actors, without exception, the book was aimed at.
GDP is the second, and of course an important factor. In addition, it is also an indisputable fact that the internationalization route of the company started earlier.
For this situation, William White was indifferent. Anyway, it's about making money and currying favor with the second vote warehouse, which is not a big deal. Not to mention the rest, just those sponsorship fees can solve a big problem.
Of course, this situation will have to be reversed when he and Somi are completely at odds. Hmph, they're all going to please Xiao Yuben, and my buddy is going to do the opposite.
In this case, supporting Xiangjiang's movies has become an inevitable choice. Seriously speaking, Golden Harvest is still quite persistent, even in the case of a box office recession, they are still struggling to persevere.
Of course, since it is to cooperate, we will continue to introduce the producer model of Hollywood. Xiangjiang's randomness is too strong, take a script casually, and change it casually beyond recognition. When the hero's true color is red, you will make a bunch of the same theme come out. The God of Gamblers succeeded, and the movies of the same period basically had no other options except for gambling movies.
Zou Wenhuai wanted to cry a little, if it was three or five years earlier, William White's suggestion, he would definitely decline politely. The so-called independent producers actually weaken the boss's intervention in the company.
As for now?
He was actually a little disheartened, if he didn't still have a persistence, cashing out as soon as possible was the most suitable option.
It should be said that William White was sincere and the valuation given was appropriate.
Of course, he knew very well that William White would not be so short-sighted. The amount of short-term profits will never be something that these big men need to consider. You don't want to think about it, if it's really just for profit, why should he take a genuine movie license to PK.
Speaking of which, this is quite a spectacle. There are a lot of pirated movies, but there are not many movies under White Pictures.
Speaking of playing piracy, there is actually a lot of risk involved. You can't get a master, and it's a joke to get the best visuals. If it's a Western film, it's even more troublesome, and it's a big trouble for you to get the dubbing and subtitles. Even if all of this is done, if you run into a jumping sale of genuine DVDs, it is estimated that you will not make much money.
