Chapter 374: Peak Battle, Harry Potter (Medium)

Blueprints has a long-standing feud with domestic netizens, and as early as when China first applied for the Olympics, he began to write articles full of superiority against China's various systems, although many of his remarks were widely promoted by some public intellectuals in China, citing celebrity quotes and pretense as sharp weapons.

But as a foreigner, no matter how many documents he reads, how much history he reads, how many jΓΉ he collects, no matter how advanced his thinking and how advanced his insight is, he will not really understand how our people live, a very simple example, he may be able to find out the housing prices in the metropolises of China, but he will not know the average prices of wheat, corn and cabbage.

Quoting concepts to comment on facts, hypothetizing scenarios by yourself, and then analyzing them by yourself, the theories and concepts that come up are still concepts, and it is impossible to resonate with everyone.

As a result, contradictions were inevitable, and everyone began to boycott the books and movies of "Outer Time and Space War".

Again, individual remarks, collective paying.

Today, when the Chinese market is becoming more and more important, Blueprints' actions obviously cannot be recognized by the film company, so they scolded people to communicate with Blueprints and put pressure on them, and at the same time went to China to do public relations, and finally had to claim that the film producer did not agree with Blueprints's remarks.

Subsequently, domestic companies that introduced and distributed also began to come forward on a large scale to do crisis public relations, shaping the banner of "art without borders", and trying to isolate the film from the original author.

The ultimate solution to this matter was that Blueprints wrote an "explanatory article" to explain the good intentions of his critical remarks, without any intention to slander or slander.

We can't control how the lining is. At least the face is back, and the boycott has this kind of results, which is ideal. In the spirit that art may really have no borders, the two sides finally reached a settlement.

Film companies want to make money, and audiences want to watch movies, after all, it is still a two-way demand.

Shortly after the boycott was lifted, however, another post circulated online about Blueprints privately speaking of China's boycott of him. "My works are not less than a Chinese market, and I can never license them, as for movies." I won't say much, you go to the website to see the reaction of their audience, their urging and expectation for the next movie, which is completely inconsistent with the previous righteous indignation. In other words. They begged me to earn the money in their wallets, and I was helpless. ”

This post circulated on the Internet for a while, but soon someone came out to refute the rumors, pointing out that this is a malicious smear by the opponent and belongs to the category of some kind of vicious competition, which is widely recognized by everyone. On the other hand, once the content of the post is confirmed. It is tantamount to denying the achievements of the previous boycott, which is one thing they are unwilling to accept.

By the time the new movie "Outer Time War" is released, this post is no longer over.

In fact, although some of the words have been rearranged, the phrase does come from Blueprints.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, when Blueprints said this, he specially chose an occasion for a private party, although it was private, but not everyone at the meeting was friendly with Blueprints, and this topic spread lightly.

Liu Jingting got the news from a party.

However, unlike those netizens who first saw this post, Liu Jingting did not feel any indignation when he heard these words, and the literati were lofty and awkward, not only popular in China, and this colleague Blueprint obviously wanted to express his insistence on his position, and express his disdain and ridicule for the "explanation letter".

There is no bold indignation, but there is unhappiness with a careful eye, because he also spent money to watch "Outer Time War 5", and also invited all the colleagues in the editorial department.

Spending money on consumption, and finally being scolded by the seller as a fool, who can bear this?

When Yang Lilu passed Liu Jingting's words to everyone, everyone was indignant, especially Chang Youdao, because when the post was circulating, he also deliberately posted a refutation, thinking that it was a smear move by the opponent of LC Films, and now he suddenly learned the truth and immediately burst into a rage.

"We just need to know this matter ourselves, don't say it out of your mind, it doesn't make sense in itself. Yang Lilu added.

Chang Youdao, who was indignant, slowly calmed down, recalled his psychological state at the time, and based on his experience of playing forums for so many years, now posting and announcing the truth can only recruit Liu Jingting, and let others misunderstand that this is Liu Jingting's inferior means in order to win the blueprint.

"I can only hope for Mr. Liu's new book, otherwise, no matter how this breath comes out, it will not be happy. ”

……

"Do you put all your hopes on this new book, and in terms of time, will it be a little rushed?"

Xingyue TV Building, the general manager's office, Liu Jingting, Gong Chengpin, and Gong Chengen were chatting, and Gong Chengen directly expressed his concerns.

The number jΓΉ shows that the global box office of the five films of "Outer Time and Space War" has reached 3 billion US dollars, which is nearly 1 billion more than the second place. Gong Chengpin directly posed a number of jΓΉ, and the meaning expressed was similar to that of Gong Chengen.

Liu Jingting said with a smile: "Gong Dashao actually began to think about such a humane problem. ”

Gong Chengpin was stunned for a moment, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly said "oh", and then said, "You are also using Blueprints to create topics?"

If it was before, it would be absolutely impossible for Gong Chengpin to care about Liu Jingting's winning or losing, the first reaction was Liu Jingting's purpose, and the second was the possibility of investment.

But since cooperating in "Journey to the West", the two have fought side by side, creating the ratings and word-of-mouth myths of mythological TV series, the kind of revolutionary friendship that shares weal and woe, and the kind of companionship complex that creates brilliance together, even the palace inheritor of natural restraint cannot be erased from the heart.

In order to avoid further explanations, Liu Jingting had to temporarily agree with this view.

Gong Chengen didn't think so, and said: "No, this is not Gu Shuai's style, since you have taken the initiative to provoke, you must be ready to win all kinds of preparations, since Zheng Qiushi questioned it, you have been doing this, including the recent Nobel bet." ”

Liu Jingting spread his hands.

"You are," Gong Chengpin stared at Liu Jingting and said, "What kind of tricks did you leave?"

Liu Jingting said in his heart: "I thought that if I didn't explain, I didn't need more explanations, but I still couldn't escape." ”

Liu Jingting said: "I am confident because I really think that the new book has the certainty of victory, just like a TV series is launched, your judgment of the ratings, this is my backhand, so now let's talk about the possibility of investment." ”

Gong Chengpin nodded and asked, "Are you sure it's WB over there?"

"Yes, the director and the behind-the-scenes are basically confirmed, it's the Hollywood team, the actors, because the story is set in the United Kingdom, and because I promised the Queen of England, all of them will be selected from the United Kingdom. ”

Liu Jingting recounted lightly, but the Gong brothers listened to it with a surging heart, WB, Hollywood team, Queen of England, what a majestic influence these words have on people in the entertainment industry!

Now the young man in front of him can actually pass by so casually, and how powerful the psychological element is.

"So, it's the cooperation of three countries?"

"That's right. ”

"What kind of story is it, it has to be Hollywood?"

"The wizarding world, made into a movie, always in need of stunt support, eating, walking, messengers, elves, Death Eaters, dark magic, mysterious and quaint magic school, magic wars, ......"

"Gu Shuai, I understand. ”

Gong Chengpin continued: "Mr. Liu, you can directly give a conclusion." ”

Liu Jingting's face became serious, adjusted his sitting posture slightly, looked at Gong Chengpin frankly, and said, "Total investment is 2 points." After a pause, "buy out the domestic distribution rights." ”

"Buyout?" Gong Chengpin hesitated slightly, and immediately set up an abacus in his heart, the buyout of any product is a test of the buyer's vision, because they have to bear the risk of the product hitting the street.

"What is the budget?" asked Gong Chengpin.

Liu Jingting stretched out two fingers.

"Twenty million?" Gong Chengen asked.

"Two hundred million. ”

Gong Chengpin and Gong Chengen were stunned on the spot, although the domestic film and television market has been expanding in recent years, and the introduction of foreign blockbuster copyrights is also hotly speculated, but their own side directly raised the budget to 200 million, which is also an unprecedented sky-high price.

"Two hundred million?" Gong Chengpin dared to answer, and said, "This amount needs to be held at a high-level meeting." ”

Liu Jingting didn't react superfluously, and said: "I will cooperate with you in the name of Yingri Culture, and I will contribute half of each." In addition, the novel plan is seven, which means that there are at least seven movies, and on average, one movie is less than 30 million, which is about five or six million dollars. ”

Half of it is also 100 million, if it weren't for "Journey to the West" making a lot of money for the company, Gong Chengpin would almost have to doubt Liu Jingting's motives.

Gong Chengpin secretly calculated that he didn't dare to reply rashly, but Gong Chengen didn't have any taboos and asked: "Gu Shuai, you directly tell me the most ideal income ratio of this movie." ”

"The first few films can probably pay off, and the last two to three parts will have an average income of at least ten to twenty times more per piece. ”

Liu Jingting still drew a big cake for the two brothers without hurrying. (To be continued......)
