France, in the winery, in the morning.

At the beginning of September, it was still a little hot outside.

Liao Liao and Xie Bing went to see the winery that Xie Bing had newly bought, under the big tree outside the villa, a pot of Chinese black tea was brewed, Li Qian and John Days both lit cigars, Qi Jie sat next to Li Qian, and the meeting began.

Let's start with the least divisive things.

That is the distribution right of "Dragon Gate Inn".

Since the establishment of Oriental Dream Film Company, John Days is responsible for taking care of it, and now the company has not participated in the production of many films, only investing in two small-budget independent films, John Days's vision is okay, and they all make small profits, but in fact, the majority of Oriental Dream's income, or the company's current main business direction, is distribution.

The agency distribution of the "Once Upon a Time" two-part series in Europe and the United States, as well as its active participation in the distribution of "The Matrix" in North America, and the full agency of the film's distribution in Europe, Africa and Latin America, are all proud works of Oriental Dream Films.

The success of "The Matrix", needless to say, "Once Upon a Time" is actually a lucrative project.

The box office of this movie in North America is not good, but the box office in Europe is okay, especially, whether in Europe or North America, the DVDs of these two oriental kung fu movies can be described as big sellers!

In another time and space, the DVD of Tsui Hark's version of "Once Upon a Time" was already selling well in the United States, not to mention that the director of this version was Li Qian, whether it was the director's popularity in Europe and the United States, or the quality of the whole movie, it was much better than Tsui Hark's version, and the DVD was naturally a big hit.

There are two reasons: first, there are a lot of Chinese in Europe and the United States, and these people are a large consumer group for kung fu movies; second, Chinese kung fu, this theme is originally with a mysterious aura in the eyes of Europeans and Americans, and a considerable number of curious audiences especially like to collect this kind of DVD.

With the popularity of "The Matrix" and Zhou Baoshan's popularity in Europe and the United States, the DVD released by the two-part series of "Once Upon a Time" has seen another wave of sales soar.

The dividends here are, of course, divided by Oriental Dream and Minghu Culture.

But the problem is that no matter how powerful John Days is, no matter how good his connections are, compared to Columbia, which is already a Hollywood superproduction company and distribution company, it is nothing in comparison.

In the past, Colombia couldn't even get a drop of broth, but now, "Dragon Gate Inn", as another kung fu blockbuster produced by Minghu Culture, has exploded at the box office in China, East Asia and Southeast Asia.

Of course, John Days patiently explained to him: Kung fu movies and martial arts movies are two different concepts that cannot be generalized, "Once Upon a Time" and "Dragon Gate Inn", although they are both filming Chinese kung fu, they are also two completely different styles. "Once Upon a Time" makes money in Europe and the United States, but "Dragon Gate Inn" is not necessarily - but it is useless, Colombia asks for the distribution rights of "Dragon Gate Inn" in all parts of the world, except for countries such as East Asia and Southeast Asia.

John Days was almost angry.

But before they quarreled, Li Qian made a decision, the release of "Dragon Gate Inn" in the United States was attributed to Columbia, DVD distribution, Oriental Dream Six, Columbia Four, but in Europe it was the other way around, the release and distribution belonged to Oriental Dream, DVD is Columbia Six, Oriental Dream IV.

Well, both sides reluctantly agreed.

The second thing, the investment problem of the second part of "The Matrix".

didn't wait for them to quarrel, Li Qian made a direct decision: allow Colombia to join, and Oriental Dream will give up part of the investment share, but as a price, the European distribution of the second part of "The Matrix" will continue to be handed over to Oriental Dream, and Colombia will not worry about it anymore, and the distribution in North America will continue to be jointly done by the two companies.

The matter was settled again.

The third thing is who Li Qian will make a film for next.

Or Li Qian made the decision directly: The movie I am going to make next is still waiting for the technology, the technology is not too mature at present, and once the filming starts, the cost is huge, so Minghu Culture invests 60%, Columbia invests 30%, and Oriental Dream invests 10%, let's share the risk.

As for the more than a dozen film production plans prepared by Colombia, Li Qian didn't even read it, and said directly: I don't have time.

The division of interests is complete.

By the time Liao Liao and Xie Bing came back from the winery next to them, everyone could already happily drink tea and chat together.

Although Colombia failed to win Li Qian to Colombia to make a movie, they not only got the investment rights of the second part of "The Matrix", and the distribution rights that will be started, but also obtained the investment rights and distribution rights of Li Qian's next big production, and they also grabbed a large piece of meat in front of them, the European and American distribution rights of "Dragon Gate Inn", they also snatched a large piece from the mouth of Oriental Dream Film Company, it can be said that the goal of Glenschar's trip to France has been successfully completed, and he is of course very happy.

In his opinion, this is a large piece of fat that will be indispensable on the road to Colombia's recovery in the next few years.

John Days seems frustrated, but in fact, he knows that in terms of volume level, Oriental Dream is too small, and after Minghu Culture completed the acquisition of Columbia, the thing he has been most worried about is that Minghu Culture will want to integrate Oriental Dream Film Company into Columbia's system in Europe and the United States.

Colombia has Glen Char, if he enters the Colombian system, within a few years, he is not qualified and impossible to reach the top, and if he retains the distribution rights of a series of films in Europe and the United States, the most important agent of Oriental Dream, he can continue to occupy a very important place in the film kingdom of "Minghu Culture - Colombia".

What's more, with the right to issue this piece, Dongfang Dream's profits are very high, and he holds shares in this company, which of course means that he can get a great increase in wealth every year.

So, don't complain on the surface, but in fact, he is happy in his heart.

As for Qi Jie...... These decisions were made directly by Li Qian, and Li Qian also made it clear that the focus of his next work was on the side of Minghu Culture, and of course she had nothing to be unhappy about.

After having lunch together, the driver drove Glen Charles away, and John Days also took another car back to Paris, and then started to run the release of "Dragon Gate Inn" in Europe, Li Qian and Qi Jie, Liao Liao, and Xie Bing sat down together, talking about the meeting in the morning, Xie Bing was very happy, and said: "Although it is my own company, I was invited to film by a big Hollywood company so actively, you should be the first one, right?"

Li Qian smiled, shook his head, and said, "What's the matter, you're still ready to be proud!"

Xie Bing was puzzled. In her opinion, this is certainly something to be proud of!

But Qi Jie explained to her with a smile, "Although Li Qian has proved that he can make the kind of movies that sell around the world, he is a Chinese director after all, and it is still risky for him to go to the United States to make movies and make movies with pure American aesthetic orientation! Moreover, Glen Shire's invitation is actually just a gesture, do you really think he really wants Li Qian to make movies for Columbia?"

Xie Bing was puzzled again.

Qi Jie had no choice but to continue to explain, "Colombia is very large, and there are many production plans every year, but Hollywood's production standard is an absolute producer-centered system, that is, what films to make, who to find, and how to shoot are all up to the producers. The producer was again appointed by Colombia. In the past, as the boss of Columbia, Li Qian would definitely be the first producer, and even if it was Glen Char, it would be impossible for him to interfere with how he made films! Now that Glen Charles has just straightened out the company's internal affairs, how can you say that at this time, even if Li Qian's movies are all successful and will make money, how can he be willing to let Li Qian go over and make movies that are completely out of his control? Moreover, once Li Qian goes to the United States, will he want to interfere in the internal operations of Colombia? Will Glen Charles be willing to let him go over to be the emperor?

Xie Bing suddenly realized, thought for a long time, and said, "You are all amazing!"

Obviously, let Xie Bing do such a thing of hiding their hearts and testing each other, she thinks that she can only be trapped.

Everyone laughed.

Everyone has their own way of survival, Xie Bing's way of survival is that her mind is very simple, but she is very clean, she is very kind to everyone, she never hides treachery in her heart, does not fight or fight, so everyone is willing to be good to her. And she knew Li Qian from the beginning, and she was especially willing to snuggle up to Li Qian, and she was especially willing to be a silk tree attached to his big tree - I think back then, Zhou Yan and Liao Liao were both active offensive types, so they took Li Qian down, but Xie Bing was not, she was taken down by Li Qian.

Facts have proved that she is a girl with such a simple mind, and with Li Qian to escort her all these years, she has simply risen all the way - if there is no Li Qian, in a chaotic entertainment industry, where can she go, whether she can come out like now, and whether she will be cheated by others, it is difficult to say.

After sighing "You are all really fine and complicated", it only took a while, she put this matter aside, when Li Qian casually asked about the publicity and box office situation of "Dragon Gate Inn", Xie Bing immediately jumped up again and said: "Wow, it broke 300 million? So fast?"

She said: "I also like that movie very much, Xiaoyu acted so well, and Director Jin shot it really well!"

Then she also said to Li Qian: "Director Jin is really amazing!" and asked Qi Jie, "Then with the big sale of this movie, is Director Jin going to become a big director?"
