470. Negotiate to go to the United States
With Cheng Long's mediation, Ning Yuan's in-depth analysis and thorough analysis, coupled with Chen Xidong, an excellent man who is not optimistic about the mainland box office, Yang Shoucheng, who was already hesitant, finally reached an agreement with Ning Yuan.
Of course, they can agree, the most important thing is to fancy the relationship between Ning Yuan and Han Ping.
This movie also has the investment of a subsidiary of Huaying Group, and Luo Bin, the boss of the film cooperation company who came before, has a real attitude towards Ning Yuan, and they all see it clearly, and they are careful with the master.
If it weren't for this, even if Ning Yuan said that the sky was falling, they would not have been able to agree.
Even, it was impossible for Ning Yuan to eat at the same table with them.
Look at this table, except for Cheng Long, they are all senior executives of Emperor Entertainment, and Yang Shoucheng has a higher status, after all, Emperor Group is not only in the entertainment section, after all, they started selling watches at the beginning.
As for Cheng Long, in addition to his coffee position, Emperor Entertainment also helped him set up Cheng Long Emperor Pictures, which can be regarded as a partner.
Even in the new generation of Xiangjiang, the popular Xie Zhufeng has no place, which shows that they value Ning Yuan.
Another point is that Ningyuan's ambitious company has good results, although it has invested in a few films, none of them have failed, even if the artists signed by it have more potential than the other.
Liu Ye won the Best Newcomer at the Berlin Film Festival with "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle", Pan Yueming won the Most Popular Actor at the Beijing University Student Film Festival, and Liu Ye's performance in the drama "The Good Man of Sichuan Province" is also obvious to all.
The key is that they are only in their early twenties, and they are far from the age of shine, and in time, who knows how many actors they can get back?
Even the two actresses under his company, Liu Qianqian and Huo Siyan, have become very popular in the mainland with just one TV series, and that TV series is produced by Ningyuan Company.
And that Liu Qianqian is younger.
Oh yes, in addition to Ning Yuan's company, the producer of that TV series also has Han Ping's Huaying Group.
It's even rarer.
Since the establishment of China Film Group, they have rarely invested, and even if they do, they are large-scale films in the mainland, and it is the first time to invest in TV dramas, because it is self-evident.
In the early stage, it was Ning Yuan who took advantage, but after the income and ratings came out, everyone found out that it was Huaying who took advantage.
Coupled with "That Mountain", which was a dark horse at the box office in Neon Country before, it can be seen that Ning Yuan's vision, although he is young, can be described as old and spicy.
If it's just these, Yang Shoucheng can also refuse, because Ning Yuan will probably make money from what he is optimistic about, right?
But...... He gave too much.
Ning Yuan is still in accordance with the original release of "That Mountain".
"Since we compare those two Xiangjiang movies, we might as well draw a line with "Hedong Lion's Roar", their box office in the mainland is 22 million, if it is less than this number, I will give you a share of this number, I will make up for the shortfall, if it is exceeded, it will be divided according to the normal share, and I will take the part I should take. ”
It's not that ...... If the box office is less than 22 million, such as 20 million, Ning Yuan will post 2 million upside down, but 20 million, after deducting the theater chain and other shares, how much money can they get, and the part that is not enough, Ning Yuan will make up for it, as for the share of the theater chain, of course Ning Yuan does not need to consider it.
Even so, it is a big deal, after all, "Hedong" ranks among the top ten box office in the mainland, and for Xiangjiang films, it is second only to "Unparalleled in the World", only two million less than it.
Based on these, Yang Shoucheng certainly knows how to choose.
People who can make their business bigger will not only look at immediate benefits, Ning Yuan can offer this price, with his past resume, there is a high probability that he will make money, but this time he refused, what about the future?
Ning Yuan's connections in the mainland, as well as his fast-growing company, all show that his future is limitless, and he also has European connections, such as Śubimov, such as the big names in the Berlin theater industry, to sum these up, and then look at Ning Yuan's age, everyone will choose to have a good relationship.
It may make millions more money alone, but for the Emperor, it is not worth mentioning, not to mention, this is only a high probability, and it is not completely safe, and there has never been a movie that is guaranteed to be a big hit before it is released.
Otherwise, during the filming of "Titanic", Fox would not have been almost driven bankrupt, Paramount almost driven crazy, and even had to sell his ass - this is not the author's words, but what Cameron himself said when he went to make additional investments and asked for money: If you don't have money, you will sell your ass.
There is also "Star Wars", before the release, a group of big names were invited to try it out, but after watching it, everyone was silent, no one applauded, the scene was extremely embarrassing, Lucas could still hold on, but his editor's wife couldn't help crying, if it wasn't for Spielberg's comfort at the end: "Relax, I feel like this movie can earn 100 million", the string in Lucas's own heart was broken.
But at that time, there was never a movie that could earn this amount.
But after its release, "Planet" was unbeatable, selling more than $200 million in a short period of time, and the U.S. box office alone surpassed the all-time No. 1 Great White Shark, which became a complete hit.
This is the same as Ning Yuan when he went to release "That Mountain", except for the bottom line, as long as the low score is low, and "The Family of Gold Powder" he has the strength to do it by himself, which is different from "That Mountain", even if he doesn't look for him, it's fine, but Ning Yuan still did it.
Immediately after the negotiation, the general manager of the film company under Yuanda led the team to take charge of the docking of this matter.
Although they haven't done film distribution work before, everything is from scratch, not to mention having a big name, as well as Han Ping's relationship, coupled with the excellent quality of the film, and the appeal of Cheng Long, Xie Zhufeng and Ning Yuan, it is not too difficult to talk about this matter.
The first level is easy, which allows them to exercise their experience in a slightly easier process, and at the same time connect with various theaters, and then do it in the future, and they will be born and matured twice.
After doing this, Ning Yuan followed Jiang Zhiqiang's father and daughter, as well as their team, to the United States together.
The tour of Xiangjiang came to an end temporarily, and when the last performance came, many people expressed their reluctance, and there were many audiences who had not seen it and regretted it, but the stage performance was like this, it was not like a film and television drama, and there was a video disc after it was not seen at that time, and after this passed, it was likely that it would never be seen again.
As for the rehearsal, with Ning Yuan's higher and higher reputation, no one knows how much energy he will have to act in dramas in the future.
The United States is a new and vast world, and Ning Yuan doesn't know if there will be a level of welcome in Xiangjiang, after all, they can't perform in English.
But what Ning Yuan didn't expect was that the trip to the United States not only gained a large number of new fans, but also more surprising news.
