135. Overseas Copyright

After talking to Zhang Yang and them a lot, Xu Shi also had a bottom in his heart, and began to contact some headhunting companies and ask them to help recruit.

But now Xu Shi is most anxious not about this, but about the director.

This time, it is impossible to find Cheng Guochao to be the director, you have to find someone again, and it is the kind of person who has a good level, but is more obedient, after all, Xu Shi is the real creator of the movie, and the director has no right to speak.

It's really hard to find a director like this, and few directors are willing to be a puppet.

At the same time, Xu Shi also needs to recruit a few professional screenwriters into the company, he can only write the general outline of the story, and professional scripts still need professional screenwriters to get it.

These things are the most urgent things at this stage, but at the same time, the news that Xu Shi is going to shoot a second movie has also been reported.

This news first came from within the circle, and soon someone came to the door, many people were very enthusiastic about Xu Shi's last movie that made so much money, and everyone was very optimistic about Xu Shi's movie at the moment.

The first to come to the door was Corn Pictures, no way, who let them have Xu Mingjie and Xu Xiaoxiao two trump cards in their hands, this time they also came.

The office of Jingwumen has been completed, in a relatively remote commercial area outside the fifth ring road of the capital, but the office conditions are really good.

Xu Shi rented a five-story building, and the rent for a year was about five million, which was relatively good.

And there is no need for Xu Shi to decorate, the previous company has just been renovated for half a year and went out of business, Xu Shi only needs to tidy it up a little.

This time, the corn team leader is called Wang Xin, who is the manager of the corn investment department, which also represents their importance to Xu Shi, of course, Xu Mingjie and Xu Xiaoxiao were also brought by them.

"Mr. Xu, hello, my name is Wang Xin, and I am the manager of the corn investment department. Wang Xin introduced himself.

Xu Shi said with a smile: "I have heard the name for a long time, please take a seat." ”

Xu Mingjie and Xu Xiaoxiao saw that the two started talking and left, anyway, they are just a contact, and they are the same when they are not there, so they just took this opportunity to visit the company.

Xu Shi and Wang Xin exchanged a few words and got to the point.

"Mr. Xu, I heard that your second movie is about to start preparations, I wonder if we can invest corn?"

Wang Xin's words are to put them in a relatively low position, and now everyone knows that Xu Shi is not short of money at all, not to mention the box office account, even the network copyright has sold a lot of money.

Xu Shi said: "Corn is interested?"

"Of course, now the company is very optimistic about your work and wants to take your ride. Wang Xin said with a smile.

This is the negotiation strategy he set with several leaders of the company before he came, and he can be tough on some other people looking for investment to get the most out of it.

But it doesn't work at all on Xu Shi's side, although they know from Xu Mingjie and Xu Xiaoxiao's mouth that Xu Shi's personality is very good, but they just listen to this.

With the success of "One Man's Martial Arts", Zhang Yang and Sun Tu are also famous in the entertainment industry, especially the deeds of Zhang Yang and Xu Shi have been spread.

When Xu Shi was a teenager, he dared to break into Zhang Yang's company building alone, and beat him up, such a person, you tell me that he is easy to talk to?

If you dare to say it, I must believe it!

Therefore, Wang Xin set the tone of the negotiation when he came, and lowered his posture, so that he could gain Xu Shi's favor even more.

Xu Shi said: "If Corn wants to invest, of course I am very welcome, but Corn also needs to contribute to this movie, such as publicity and other things related to the movie.

Of course, if the corn agrees, then we will also focus on corn in the future distribution of this film, which depends on your sincerity. ”

Xu Shi is not a businessman after all, he speaks more directly, and does not beat around the bush like ordinary negotiations.

Wang Xin obviously expected this, so his answer was very crisp and direct.

"Don't worry, we will definitely do our best to help with this, I don't know how much money you are going to invest in this movie, and how much share of corn can we occupy?"

"The investment this time is relatively large, at least 300 million, and I personally account for 50 percent. Xu Shi didn't hide it either.

Originally, he thought that even if Xu Shi increased some investment this time, it would be about 100 million, but he didn't expect it to be 300 million directly.

As for Xu Shi's 50% share, he also agrees, and many people have reached a consensus on this point, that is, the reason why "One Man's Martial Arts" is a big hit is that Xu Shidare to work hard.

If Xu Shi's proportion is not high, and he has his current worth, will he still dare to work as hard as before?

Therefore, the proportion that Xu Shi said made Wang Xin feel relieved, because it also means that Xu Shi still really wants to make this film.

Xu Shi saw that Wang Xin was hesitating, knowing that he might not have the right to decide, so he said: "This matter is not in a hurry for the time being, I will hold an investment meeting in the company in a few days, and then everyone will get together to discuss, how much money each person will contribute, how many resources will be contributed, and what the proportion will be, all need to be negotiated."

What I hope is that everyone can discuss these things together in advance, and don't make trouble for everyone later, what do you think?"

Wang Xin immediately said: "That's okay, by the way, I came this time for another purpose, how about handing over the overseas copyright of "One Man's Martial Arts" to us?"

The last time I released it, I just talked about domestic copyrights, after all, with an investment of 10 million, it is likely to lose money if I issue overseas copyrights, so I didn't talk about it.

Now that Maize regrets his death in his heart, this is not the right time to take this opportunity to come and talk about it.

Xu Shi said: "This also needs to be discussed, several companies have talked to me about this matter, I don't know what the bid on the corn side is?"

Xu Shi doesn't really understand anything, he still understands the truth of shopping around.

When Wang Xin heard this, he immediately said their conditions, but Xu Shi didn't say anything after hearing it, but just said that he would discuss it again, which also made Wang Xin feel uncertain.

After thinking for a while, he said, "We can talk about it again, or will we make an appointment tomorrow?"

"Yes. Xu Shi said.

In fact, the price of corn is similar to that of other companies, but Xu Shi wants to see if he can ask for more.

He can be sure that the mood of corn is still relatively urgent, after all, he has already made a lot of money from domestic distribution, and naturally looks forward to the income from overseas copyrights.

Of course, it can't be too outrageous, and who knows what the situation of overseas distribution will be?
