335. Total box office worldwide

When Xu Shi and them were negotiating, there were also some other American or European film and television companies that wanted to come over to discuss cooperation.

Now everyone can see that Xu Shi has become a banner in Huaxia, not to mention that winning Xu Shi is equivalent to winning the Chinese market.

But at the very least, after cooperating with Xu Shi, it has a very good effect on their development of the Chinese market.

The coming of these film companies put a lot of pressure on William, so William and they also accelerated the pace of negotiations.

Time came to the beginning of September in a blink of an eye, and on this day, Xu Shi and William officially reached a cooperation.

The two sides jointly invested $200 million to shoot the new movie, Jingwumen invested $80 million, and Meida invested $120 million.

At the same time, the copyright of the film is jointly owned by the two companies, and the distributor of the film is also handed over to Meida.

Whether it is the local distribution in Europe and the United States, or the Asian side, it is handed over to Meida.

These are all news on the bright side, and it seems that Jingwumen has suffered a loss.

But a lot of important things are not made public.

For example, Meida will fully support "Journey to the West" to compete for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language.

The chief director of the film is William, but he only has part of the decision-making power, and Xu Shi has a veto power.

It means that as long as Xu Shi opposes a certain shooting content, then William must listen to him.

Although William was not satisfied with this clause, the two companies had already reached a cooperation, and he had no choice.

However, what relieved William was that he finally did not become Xu Shi's puppet and had some autonomy.

The overall shooting of the movie is still up to him to grasp the situation, but it just needs to meet some requirements of Xu Shi.

Although this is more uncomfortable, William is not unacceptable.

And now William actually agrees with Xu Shi's sensitivity to movies, after all, facts speak louder than words!

At the same time, the final box office of "Journey to the West" has finally been released.

The total box office in China is as high as 6.2 billion RMB!

This completely broke through the Chinese historical record, and far exceeded!

Many people were amazed by this achievement!

Like corn, Mingyue and these film and television companies jumped up happily, they didn't just reap the box office.

Because of the box office news of "Journey to the West", their stocks have risen a lot.

However, the feelings of the CEOs of the two companies, Yu Liao and Wang Mingyuan, were a little complicated at this time.

They are indeed happy to make a big profit, but at the same time, they also know that they are expected to part ways with Xu Shi in the future.

It's not that Xu Shi doesn't take them to play, but they can't keep up with Xu Shi's rhythm.

This means that they are going to return to their previous state again, and there is no way to make money easily with Xu Shi.

But Xu Shi's temporary departure is not entirely a bad thing for them either.

Now that Xu Shi relies on the relationship of "Journey to the West", it can be said that he is directly a god in the Huaxia region!

Xu Shi's fans are also increasing, and even Xu Shi has become the standard for some young people to re-examine their idols.

A few years ago, the entertainment industry was full of beauties, little fresh meat, as long as the face is good, then there is no worry about no fans.

Even the quality of their fans is much higher than that of those actors who rely on their acting skills.

Because these fans are willing to spend money for their idols, the traffic is very easy to monetize.

Originally, although everyone was also discussing these topics, there were also many voices on the Internet condemning Xiao Xianrou.

But because none of the other young actors were able to stand up, everyone only verbally denounced it.

But since Xu Shi appeared, from obscurity at the beginning to today's fame, he has completely interpreted the image of an iron-blooded tough guy on the screen.

Besides, although Xu Shi is not particularly handsome, his streamlined muscles and figure have added a lot of points to him.

Now once everyone denounces Xiao Xianrou, they will take Xu Shi as an example.

In the beginning, there were many people who ridiculed or expressed various objections.

But as time continues, and now the strong outbreak of "Journey to the West"!

Let Xu Shi's image once again be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and now there are slowly fewer people who hate him.

Even if he doesn't like Xu Shi, but because Xu Shi has never had any negative news, and he has no label as a scumbag, everyone will not hate him.

It can be said that Xu Shi single-handedly caused huge losses to many film and television companies.

Now the focus of most film and television companies is actually on all kinds of small fresh meat and beauties.

Because this kind of monetization is too fast.

You honestly shoot a movie or a TV series, maybe not as much money as Xiao Xianrou casually howling on stage.

Even receiving advertisements or something is more money than those who work hard to make filming.

Not only that, but there are also some cutouts, which only need to provide his face, and the rest don't need to be bothered at all.

Who can not blush with such a speed of money?

Who is willing to put in a lot of effort to make hard-earned money?

Therefore, although most film and television companies know that this is definitely not a long-term solution, they can't bear such temptation.

It's like a lot of virtual currencies on the market right now, regional blocks and stuff like that.

At first, you may not know it, but now who doesn't know that this thing is a lie?

So why are there still so many people throwing money into it now?

Isn't it just thinking that you are not the most unlucky, able to evacuate before the collapse and make a lot of money?

Don't they know that the stakes are high?

They know, but who makes the benefits too big and can make money lying down?

.........

The truth is such a truth, so Xu Shi really offended many film and television companies in China this time.

This time, it is because of Xu Shi, these film and television companies are estimated to lose a lot of money.

But Xu Shi doesn't care about these either, first, he doesn't care much about the status of the film and television industry, and second, he is about to go to Europe and the United States to develop, and he can't help him here.

And there are some old-timers who are helping to escort the Jingwu Sect, so Xu Shi is not worried at all.

To put it mildly, these old-timers may not be able to help you make money, but it is more than enough to make trouble for you.

...........

The final overseas box office is set at 500 million US dollars, which means that the total global box office of "Journey to the West" is almost more than 10 billion when converted into RMB.

This kind of data shocked everyone's jaws, although many people have already had some guesses in their hearts, but when the real results came out, they still felt a little unacceptable!

If Xu Shi's cheekiness dragged on for a while, maybe they would be able to break 10 billion.

Although the box office of 10 billion yuan was very tempting, Xu Shi finally decided to give up.

If you do this, it may make Xu Shizai's audience's senses much worse, and this time it has actually been delayed for a while, but this is barely acceptable.

If it drags on any longer, it won't make sense.

This decision also made Xu Shi's reputation among the audience rise again.

..............

"Happy cooperation!" Xu Shi shook hands with William.

Just now they officially signed the contract, which means that their future cooperation is officially launched.

"Xu, can you show me the script now? Seriously, I didn't expect the company to have such confidence in you, and you don't read the script to give such conditions. William said with a smile.

"Of course, but my script has only recently been completed. Xu Shi explained.

Soon someone sent the English version of the script, and William hurriedly picked it up and read it, and he was also full of expectations for Xu Shi's script.

Looking at it, William's brow furrowed slightly.

"What's wrong, is there anything wrong?" asked Xu Shi.

William pondered for a moment and said: "I don't see much problem with the script for the time being, and this combination is also very good, almost perfectly integrating the elements of the East and the West."

It's just that I have some questions, you look like this, do you need to change it?"

Xu Shi looked at the direction William was pointing and said with a smile: "There is no need to change it, once it is changed, then there will be no style of mine, and the audience will not necessarily buy it at that time." ”

"But it's too dangerous to do this, and if you use special effects, the effect won't be too good, and you will lose a lot of that thrilling feeling. William still disagreed.

Xu Shizhi said: "Who said to use special effects?"

As soon as these words came out, William was suddenly a little stunned, "You don't need special effects for such a scene?"

He knew that Xu Shi was crazy, and he also knew Xu Shi's style.

But he didn't expect Xu Shi to be crazy to this point, such a scene, he actually wanted to complete the challenge in real life.

"Of course!" Xu Shi said with a serious face.

"No, no, it's too dangerous, I don't agree, don't let our movie not be on the news when the time comes, you will be the first to be on the news." William hurriedly shook his head.

Xu Shi said: "Don't worry, I won't joke with my life, I will prepare in advance when the time comes." ”

William burst out laughing bitterly when he heard his words, this is also called not joking with his own life?

He was joking when he looked at Xu Shi!

"Forget it, for now, but you need to think about it, this is what I reminded you as a friend. William finally said.

As he said, this is the opinion of a friend.

If it were just as a director, then William wouldn't say so much, because Xu Shi did it completely for the quality of the film.

Once it succeeds, not to mention the effect, it will blow the news out, and it will also attract many people to watch.

Especially those who love extreme sports.

..........

After signing the contract with William, Xu Shi came to the Jingwumen Martial Arts School, and he rarely came here during this time, because he was really busy.

He didn't come here today to teach, but to announce something.

Xu Shi called the leadership of the Jingwu Sect over and prepared for a meeting.

Master Song and these people were all happy to see Xu Shi coming, they never thought that martial arts would have such a development today.

And all these changes come from Xu Shi.

Master Song, the most fortunate thing now is that when Master Xu Shi brought Xu Shi over to learn martial arts, they didn't hide their secrets because of the sect's opinions, otherwise it would be difficult to say whether they would have it today.

Xu Shixian said hello to everyone, and then got down to business, "Let everyone come over today, the most important thing is to let everyone organize a martial arts competition next." ”

"Hmm, what do you mean?" Master Song hurriedly asked.

Xu Shi said: "Just like the final exam, this is also an exam, but it has changed from paper articles to naked combat. ”

"It's not impossible, but it takes a little bit of preparation. Master Song thought for a moment and said.

"This tournament must be fair and impartial, and there must be no cheating at all, which I hope everyone will keep in mind. Xu Shi's face began to become serious.

Seeing Xu Shi so solemn, Master Song and the others were slightly stunned for a while.

They didn't think about helping students cheat, but looking at Xu Shi like this, it seems that it is not just about exams.

Master Song seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly said, "Are you ready to accept apprentices?"

He remembered that Xu Shi was going to prepare to accept apprentices at the Jingwumen Martial Arts School.

Originally, Master Song thought that they would have to wait for a while, but seeing Xu Shi like this, it seems that they are going to accept apprentices now?

However, Xu Shi said: "It's not about accepting apprentices, I'm not in a hurry about accepting apprentices, the most important thing for me to accept apprentices is to look at my heart, and in this regard, everyone will also help me check it, after all, it will not be my business alone." ”

Master Song and the others were also relieved when they heard this, just like Xu Shi said, his acceptance of apprentices was actually not a matter of one person.

In the future, the banner of martial arts is likely to need Xu Shi's apprentices to carry it, which requires careful investigation, and there can be no sloppiness.

"Then what do you mean?" Master Song was a little confused.

Since it's not an apprentice, why is it so solemn?

Xu Shi did not sell the lawsuit, and said directly: "I believe everyone also knows that our Jingwumen Company has reached a cooperation with Meida Film and Television in the United States.

I'm going to go to the United States to film, and the script is ready.

The group performances needed for this play do not have to be less than "Journey to the West", or even more, and they can't be messy.

Now that the Jingwu Sect has been in school for so long, it's time to pull it out and practice. ”

As soon as Xu Shi's words came out, Master Song and the others were all surprised.

They now know that there are only two ways that martial arts can go now, and these two days are slightly universal.

The first is the exhibition match, which adapts some martial arts moves and changes them into moves that have aesthetic and ornamental value.

But they actually don't agree with this kind of martial arts path.

The second is the martial arts and group performances developed by Xu Shi, which is what they value the most.

Now Xu Shi's meaning is also obvious, that is, he is ready to go all out to develop this road, which can be regarded as a kind of employment model.

As long as this success is not to mention that all the martial arts students will be able to find jobs, but as long as there are one or two hundred, it will actually be enough.

I believe that this will also attract some parents to send their children to school, after all, this is also a way. 、

If one student succeeds in becoming famous, then their Jingwumen martial arts school will attract others more to join.
