Chapter 136: 404 Divine Beasts (Ask for Subscription)

If I can successfully acquire DreamWorks, you have a good script that needs Spielberg's guidance, and you can talk to him, as long as Spielberg agrees, our company has no problem at all.

Finally, if I buy DreamWorks, I'm just looking at its frame, Spielberg is a person who goes or stays, it's all up to him, and of course, if she wants to stay, I'll welcome her with both hands and feet.

DreamWorks is only a medium-sized film company in Hollywood, and I need such a company to open the door for me to enter Hollywood, which poses no threat to you, and I also need the help of you as soon as I enter Hollywood.

What do you two think?"

David's words are that both of them bowed their heads and pondered, what he said does have a certain truth, DreamWorks is worth $1 billion in the eyes of Universal Pictures, and about $1.5 billion in the eyes of Paramount, but David's two works are worth much more than a DreamWorks, even if the three jointly develop, it is estimated that they can make a lot of money.

Although the two opposite sides don't know the value of these two series of novels, David does! "The Fellowship of the Ring" has a global box office of 868,621,686 US dollars, ranking 15th in film history, "The Two Towers" has a global box office of 926,284,377 US dollars, and "The Return of the King" is 8th in film history with a global box office of 1,129,027,325 US dollars, ranking second in film history, second only to "Titanic" The three films grossed $2,923,933,388 ($2,920 million) The Hobbit 1 Unexpected Road Production Cost: $180 million Global box office: $1017003568 The Hobbit 2 Battle of Smaug Production cost: $225 million Box Office: $900 million The Hobbit 3 The Battle of the Five Armies Production Cost: $320 million Box Office: $1.3 billion, The Hobbit series grossed more than $3 billion worldwide, David brought "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings" If the two novels are combined into one, the total global box office will reach more than 6 billion US dollars. and "Twilight", Twilight $351.45 million, New Moon $709.82 million, Lunar Eclipse $694.52 million, Dawn (Part I) $649.29 million, and Midnight Sunshine $851.54 million.

The Twilight series ---- $3.345 billion (five installments, 12 years over.

The total global box office of the two series of novels is nearly 10 billion US dollars, and the box office revenue of 100 yuan is calculated as an example:

Business tax and surcharge - 3.3%, that is, 100 * 3.3% = 3.3 yuan

After the above two expenses, there is 96.7 yuan left, which is divided into the cinema chain and the producer's account sharing base (total box office 96.7%) = net box office

Cinema + cinema side - according to the net box office * 50% of the account, depending on the actual situation: 96.7 yuan * 50% = 48.35 yuan

Median agency fee - generally net box office * (1-3%) as the distribution agency fee: 96.7 yuan * 3% = 2.90 yuan

(3% within the box office of 500 million, 2% of the box office 0.5-300 million, 1% of the box office of 3-600 million, no charge for the box office of more than 600 million)

To sum up, the producer (including the distributor) received 96.7 yuan - (55% + 3%) 96.7% of its [net box office revenue sharing]

Producers (including distributors) - according to the net box office * (48-50%): 96.7 yuan * 45% = 48.35 yuan

Distribution agency fee - generally 10% of the producer's income from the box office, that is, 48.35 yuan * 10% = 4.835 yuan

(Generally, the producer is charged 5%-15% of the box office account, i.e. net box office*2-6%)

To sum up, the producer's actual account sharing is (assuming that the box office score is X)

(1--3.3%)* X *(1-50%-3%)(1-10%)= 48%* X

The producer's actual box office revenue: 48 yuan

The total global box office is around 48%.

In other words, the total global box office of these two series of movies is $10 billion, so David and the two opposite will share about 48%, that is, about $4.8 billion. And the total cost of these eleven films is less than $1.2 billion, so the three can total close to $3.6 billion, and each company will be close to $12.

Add in their distribution agency fee of 5% to 10%, then the opposite two will get a share of $1.45 billion to $1.7 billion. So just the box office score achievements can make Universal and Paramount a lot of money.

These two series of novels can make them another money to buy DreamWorks, so David is also very confident in negotiating with them. And David himself is interested in the peripherals of the movie, and the profits around the movie are also very huge, Spielberg can earn hundreds of millions of dollars with the peripherals of the movie "Jurassic Park", which shows how huge the profits around the movie are.

"Mr. Wang's conditions we can consider, this matter is relatively big, not for us to make a decision, we need to report to the company's board of directors, after research to decide, we will give you news in three days at the latest." ”

David, who was thinking, was suddenly interrupted by Adam Ferguson's words, but David was not angry, no, but the two opposite sides immediately made a decision for only one reason, that is, the two opposite sides did not really judge how much profit these two series of novels can bring to the company?

But David could tell them that it wasn't a shady secret.

I saw David smile slightly, and slowly said to the two opposite;

"Absolutely, it's not a problem, isn't it? Actually, you go back to the meeting just because you can't be sure how much profit these two series of novels will bring to the company?

But I can guarantee you very sure that it will be at least a billion dollars. When I say billion, I don't mean total revenue, but each of the three of us can net a billion dollars.

In other words, the net profit of these two series of novels can completely earn you money to acquire DreamWorks, and these are all cash, not an ethereal market value.

And this net profit of one billion dollars can completely increase the value of the shares of your two companies, even a point is billions of dollars, and as for the other aspects of the benefits are innumerable, such as your position in the company! And I believe that this guarantee is enough to impress your company's board of directors, are you right?

David's words made the two of them breathless, and two series of novels could bring a billion dollars of net income to the company, and what could be more impressive than dollars?

In a society where interests are paramount, a society where money is the master, a billion dollars can completely impress any force, because it is not a small amount. After a few deep breaths, the two presidents calmed down, and Brad Gray spoke;

"Why should we trust your promises?"

Brad Gray's words did not make the general health up, but aroused David's interest, only to see David show an unfathomable smile, looking at Brad Gray opposite, and then suddenly changed his expression, there was an idiot look, looked at Brad Gray, and said with a smile;

"Don't you know that there is a profession in this world that is a lawyer, and there is a rule called law, when two parties sign a legally recognized contract, they must be executed according to the terms of it, and I believe that both of you have this spirit of contract, and I also have it. ”
