Chapter 807: Cooperation?(1/3)

After Li Xingyi and the company were confirmed, he was in a very happy mood, especially the CEO's attitude of being much more respectful than before, which made him feel very happy.

"You kid let me have a good face on Hua Tian's side, I'll invite you to dinner tonight, you're welcome, bring your little girlfriend with you." ”

In the courtyard, Li Xingyi let out a hearty and happy laugh.

Yang Ming naturally wouldn't be polite when he heard this, and when he waited for Su Su to come back at night, after arriving at the hotel, he directly slaughtered his uncle.

The next day, after the negotiation team arranged by Huatian Airlines came, Tongguò negotiated in the morning and quickly reached an agreement.

Since it takes at least half a year to manufacture and decorate private jets, Yang Ming does not have too many requirements for business jets and helicopters, which are safe and comfortable.

After he paid 60 million Chinese yuan as a deposit from his private account, Li Xingyi, as a representative of the company, held a celebration ceremony in the hotel to wish the cooperation a success.

After finishing these, Yang Ming was ready to start the post-production of "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng", but before that, he had to go to Zhang Lekai's side to see how they were doing, because yesterday Barber called from the United States to remind him that he could start the promotion of "Transformers".

Although the trailer cannot be released at this time, the promotional poster, as well as the machine model inside, as well as the makeup photos of the hero and heroine, can be announced.

In the music and shadow numbers.

"Well, that's good, but the color of Optimus Prime still needs to be changed, the blue should be deepened a little, as a machine on behalf of the righteous side, blue can make people feel his kindness. ”

"In addition, the Decepticon's face needs to be further modified, evil, demonic, and makes people feel scared at first sight. ”

Yang Ming watched the technicians demonstrate the special effects of each machine in the computer, and made adjustments from time to time, and after a week, it was almost time to start releasing the model posters in "Transformers" one after another.

What is struggling with him a little now is the casting of "Transformers".

There is no doubt that the background of the current version of "Transformers" was moved to China by Yang Ming, and the heroes and heroines in it must be Chinese, and Yang Ming will definitely not make any changes to this.

Even though Barber proposed that in order to cater to the people of the United States, he could consider making the heroine white, but Yang Ming gave up this idea after careful consideration.

Now for him, it is not how much money each of his films can make, but the movies that can make Chinese starring in the world gain mainstream influence in the world's film market, so that the world is gradually familiar with and accustomed to Chinese as the protagonists in blockbusters.

Maybe at first, the film market in other countries around the world will not get used to this, but Yang Ming will definitely not compromise.

To be honest, how much money can be made now is already a numbers game for him that does not make him feel that he has achieved much, but it is his most important character to make the world film market accept and get used to blockbusters with Chinese faces as the protagonists.

At least compared with the previous life, the status of Huaxia in the world today is absolutely strong, which is also where Yang Ming's confidence lies.

In particular, the location of the Greater Chinese Cultural Zone in East Asia is the box office of each of his films, and it is also the place where each of his films can guarantee the most basic income.

But nothing in this world is perfect.

In a phone call from Barber yesterday, he asked him to take time to go to the United States, although he was filming "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" here in China, a kung fu movie full of Chinese cultural elements, rather than a commercial blockbuster, but his plan for the second half of the year "Transformers" was still heard by some Hollywood media.

After all, Yang Ming has achieved shocking box office results in two successive commercial blockbusters in the United States, especially "2012", which also broke several box office records, and it can be said that his every move is now under the attention of the media.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the news of the preparation for the filming of "Transformers" was heard by the Hollywood entertainment media, and even Yang Ming can be sure that this is also related to Barber deliberately releasing the news.

For a blockbuster film that cost hundreds of millions of dollars to shoot, it is not surprising that it was promoted half a year in advance.

Even some large-scale zuò started to promote it 1 year in advance, which is a very normal thing.

And the reason why Barber asked Yang Ming to go to the United States was not because of these propaganda things, but because someone in Hollywood wanted to join the movie "Transformers" to get a piece of the pie.

In Hollywood, there has never been a precedent for a blockbuster commercial blockbuster to be shot with full investment by a film company, and it can be said that behind every blockbuster commercial blockbuster, there are several film companies or other companies investing in the shooting.

To put it another way, in Hollywood, there has never been a saying that zài eats alone.

Previously, Yang Ming's two films were sold well in the United States, but they did not attract their attention, after all, as imported foreign language films, there is no direct distribution ability in the United States, and there must be a company responsible for distribution to introduce them, and then negotiate with the theater to the theater.

When "One Ball to Fame" was released, Oriental DreamWorks found a Hollywood giant Times Pictures to be responsible for the distribution, and of course, Times Pictures also received 15% of the domestic box office revenue in the United States.

However, in the second "2012", Yang Ming had already acquired Lianlian Film Company, obtained the distribution qualification, and then Barber joined, and did not let those giants exploit him.

But relatively speaking, in terms of theaters, even with the addition of Barber, the number of theaters premiering is still not as good as that of Times, a local Hollywood giant.

The crazy gold absorption of "2012" has once again attracted the attention of Hollywood Times Film Company, and they have expressed great interest in Yang Ming's next film "Transformers".

They want to get involved!

When Yang Ming heard the news reported by Barber, he wanted to refuse at first, but when he calmed down, he found that this was not a bad thing in a certain way.

Especially after Barber's analysis, he also had other thoughts in mind.

Money can never be made, and the rules of Hollywood are very different from the rules of the Chinese film industry.

In Hollywood, eating alone is a very taboo thing.

Let Times Pictures get involved, Yang Ming thought about it for a while, and it also has a high possibility of operation, now he has a lot of people who are hostile to him in Hollywood and the Oscars, if he eats alone again, even if no one will hit Oriental DreamWorks on the bright side, but there will definitely be no less small actions behind his back.

If there is a cooperative relationship with the local head snake Times Pictures at this time, I believe that with the entanglement of interests, Times Pictures will definitely not be happy to see this kind of thing happen.

As for the large-scale boycott, Yang Ming has no worries, no one will risk the world's condemnation to do this kind of thing, after all, Oriental DreamWorks is not a person who can be kneaded, if someone wants to provoke a fight in this regard, he definitely does not mind setting off a wave of boycott of Hollywood blockbusters in Huaxia.

You must know that the local Chinese film industry has long wanted to do this kind of thing, but there is no excuse.
