Chapter 807: Survive First (10,000 per day, ask for subscription)
After hanging up the phone with Richard Parker, Rong Le received congratulatory calls from others in a row!
"Rong, congratulations, "Home Alone" has achieved another great result!" this is Lei Shidong's call.
"Haha, happy together, happy together!" Rong Le said with a smile, the high box office of "Home Alone", Lei Shidong will naturally make a lot of money.
"Haha, this is natural, but Rong, in the future, you should recommend less unreliable movies!" Lei Shidong said with a smile, he was talking about the Shaw Brothers "Interstellar Blunt Tire" recommended to him by Rong Le some time ago, which was released in North America, and it was simply impossible to pounce anymore.
Let Shao Tycoon lose face!
"Who can say that the movie is good if it is not released, is he good or bad?" Rong Le passed the blame away.
Lei Shidong also smiled, didn't say anything, the two chatted for a while, and the phone hung up!
Then Rong Le received a call from Disney's Ron Miller.
After Ron Miller congratulated Rong Le, he said straight to the point: "Rong, my friend, our cooperation has always been very pleasant, and the European release of "Home Alone" is also handed over to us Disney, the price is easy to discuss!"
The success of "Home Alone" has made Shahai Entertainment's status in Disney rise again.
"Ron, I also hope to continue to cooperate with Disney, but Shahai Entertainment has received cooperation faxes from many companies, and our company needs to have a meeting before we can decide!" Rong Le and Ron Miller played Tai Chi.
The European release of "Home Alone", although Rong Le is inclined to cooperate with Disney, but now "Home Alone" is a treasure in his hands, and he naturally has to wait for the price to sell.
Ron Miller said: "My friend, this time our Disney decision to increase the share of overseas distribution received by Shahai Entertainment to 50%, which is already a very high price, enough to witness our Disney friendship!"
"Home Alone" and "Terminator" are two genres, and the style of "Home Alone" can be said to be globally acceptable, if it can get the European distribution rights of "Home Alone", it is definitely a very good thing for Disney to be crumbling at this time.
Rong Le still didn't let go, and said: "Ron, I assure you that under the same conditions, we Shahai Entertainment will definitely give priority to Disney, after all, we are old friends!"
Rongle's meaning is very clear, they will not accept this price!
Ron Miller also knew that Rong Le must not see the rabbit and not scatter the eagle, so after a few more conversations, the topic was stopped.
"My friend, Home Alone is so hot at the box office, I think you Shahai Entertainment must have plans to shoot a sequel, right?" This is the second reason why Ron Miller made this call, "Home Alone" is a recent situation, Disney must be involved!
"This is natural, we at Shahai Entertainment have the idea to make "Home Alone" into a series, and the plan to shoot a sequel is naturally necessary!" Rong Le's idea of filming the sequel to "Home Alone" has no concealment at all, only the bigger the bait, the greater the benefits!
Sure enough, Ron Miller put forward the idea of wanting to invest in the sequel to "Home Alone", to which Rong Le still did not give an accurate response, but said that he would go to Hollywood during this time, and he would definitely have priority over Disney in negotiations at that time!
After hanging up the phone, Ron Miller couldn't help but scold: "Cunning Oriental!"
The third call Rong Le received was a call from MGM Chairman, Kirk Corrian.
"Rong, when will you have time to come to Las Vegas to play two games again?" Kirk Corrian's voice is always so refreshing, if you just listen to the voice, you can't guess that he is a casino tycoon in Las Vegas, and at the same time an entertainment tycoon in Hollywood!
In fact, Kirk Corian pays more attention to the business of his own casino, while Hollywood's MGM is more of an advertisement for MGM Casino, or a tool for his own money laundering, so Kirk Corian will repeatedly buy and sell MGM Films.
But this doesn't mean that he doesn't pay attention to MGM Pictures, the popularity of "Home Alone" makes him see a large amount of dollar bills beckoning to him, and he naturally wants to come up and get a piece of the pie.
As for the contradiction between MGM and Rongle, in the face of huge interests, any contradiction can be put aside!
"I also miss the gypsy girls in Las Vegas, but I prefer British gentlemen!" Rong Le said with a smile, there is no contradiction, Rong Le wants benefits.
And the only thing that makes MGM look at Rong Le is the "007" series, other movies, at least in the past ten years, Rong Le has no interest in MGM's other movies.
The "007" series, as MGM's most important series, Rongle was able to fall in love with this series, which actually did not surprise Kirk Corian.
"Haha, anything can be discussed, if Rong is interested in British gentlemen, we can sit down and talk about it!"
"Haha, then I hope our negotiations can go smoothly!" Rong Le said with a smile, this is not a trivial matter, naturally it will be decided after some negotiations, and the interests of both parties will be tug-of-war, Rong Le is not in a hurry, Kirk Corian is not in a hurry, everything will be decided after Rong Le goes to the United States.
After Rong Le hung up the phone, he rubbed his brows, these people are all old foxes, and if one is not careful, they may be eaten by them, Rong Le naturally has to deal with it carefully!
"Brother Le, since the movie we shot in the United States is so popular, why do we want to cooperate with other companies?" asked the monkey who was proud of a cup of green tea and didn't understand.
"Hehe, how can it be so simple, Hollywood is different from Xiangjiang, the situation there is more complicated, and the intersection between the forces is more messy, although we have made certain achievements now, but we don't belong to where after all, now other companies in Hollywood see that Shahai Entertainment can create benefits, so they will be so accommodating to Shahai Entertainment, but if Shahai Entertainment monopolizes these interests, then Shahai Entertainment will be unable to move an inch in Hollywood!"
Rong Le naturally knows that monopoly is the most profitable, but there are rules of the game everywhere, Rong Le has just entered Hollywood now, and he has not yet challenged the rules of Hollywood, so he can only choose to follow the rules of Hollywood.
Even the seven major Hollywood companies are also operating in Hollywood's rules, look at the blockbuster movies in Hollywood, there are not a bunch of investors, this is not only that they are sharing the risks, but also to achieve the balance of interests, if these rules are not followed, Shahai Entertainment will face a real boycott from Hollywood, and at that time, Shahai Entertainment will not face ordinary boycotts.
Rong Le is sure that if Shahai Entertainment dares to eat alone, then there is absolutely only one way to perish waiting for Shahai Entertainment, even if Rong Le has countless good movies in his mind, it is useless, Hollywood will make you unable to find even an actor, not a director, and even a shooting venue.
In another time and space, how much capital wants to enter Hollywood, but in the end it all fails, and those who can survive have paid countless tuition fees, and they have to abide by the rules of Hollywood to survive.
When Sony acquired Columbia, it was at its peak, but what happened in the end? It was not that it was played by Hollywood, and in the end it was only by choosing to follow the rules of the game in Hollywood, and it could be considered accepted by Hollywood.
This is still the treatment that can only be had after Sony acquired Columbia, as for Shahai Entertainment, a small company without any background, even if it has the financial support of Rongle, there is only one way to lose.
If you want to develop, you have to survive
The monkey nodded, the monkey at this time was not very successful in collecting intelligence in Europe and the United States, but Rong Le didn't have much idea about it, after all, the people under the monkey were all Asian, and it was not easy to enter the mainstream industry in Europe and the United States, but this year, the island would send twenty-seven outstanding students to Europe and the United States.
Although Rong Le has not been to the training plan of the isolated island, he has always been handed over to the monkey he trusts the most, Chen Ke is responsible, but after Ah Mi deals with his own affairs, Rong Le will hand over the lonely island plan to Ah Mi to be responsible, not that Rong Le does not believe in monkeys, but these things are all in the hands of one person, which is easy to cause corruption in power, this is just Rong Le is engaged in power differentiation.
"How is Ah Mi handling over there?" Rong Le asked, when Rong Le was in China, Ah Mi had already returned to Xiangjiang with a group of people and entered the Kowloon Walled City, and her revenge plan had officially begun.
"It's almost over, Ah Mi has returned to the Kowloon Walled City, and has chosen to cooperate with Ding Ye, who is encroaching on Ah Leopard's power, I believe that it won't be long before Ah Leopard will be difficult to gain a foothold in the Kowloon Walled City!" the monkey said.
After Ah Mi returned to the Kowloon Walled City, she did not choose to directly attack Ah Leopard, although the people she brought had the ability to dispose of Ah Leopard unconsciously, but Ah Mi chose another path, she wanted to leave Ah Leopard with nothing, at that time, I believed that without Ah Mi's action, Ah Leopard would definitely die miserably without power
Rong Le nodded and said, "Tell the people sent to protect their brothers and sisters that as long as it is not something that hurts their lives, they don't need to help her, this time can be regarded as an experience for her!"
In the future, Ah Mi will control Rong Le's entire intelligence system in Europe and the United States, so Ah Mi's own ability must pass, if Ah Mi can't even deal with a leopard, then Rong Le has to let Ah Mi return to his side and be a carefree princess.
The monkey said: "Although Ah Mi's ability is still a little immature, there should be no problem in dealing with Ah Leopard!"
