Chapter 347: Pressure from Los Angeles
On this day, Xu Wan'er returned to Haishi after receiving her graduation certificate, Xu Yang bought some vegetables, and a table of three people ate there, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
Things are always so unfortunate, Xu Yang received a message, and his good mood disappeared in an instant.
What's going on?
When Yang Mu arranged the release of the movie "Fast and Furious 2" in Los Angeles, he was rejected by many theaters, and now, only the theater under their company can arrange the film schedule, and even the entertainment company under the Genesys Group, which had a good cooperation before, did not agree to the request of Dream Entertainment to cooperate.
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!
When they went to investigate, they realized that it turned out that the three entertainment giants in Hollywood had reached an internal cooperation, that is, to boycott the movies produced by Dream Entertainment, of course, the problem of release, it is no problem to play in those theaters under Dream Entertainment, if you want to expand the number of broadcasts and increase the number of screens, this is not possible.
They have also already released their words outside, if they dare to cooperate with the theater of Dream Entertainment, they will be jointly targeted by their three giant companies afterwards.
This is no small matter!
There was no foreshadowing, and the war went straight to war.
What do you want to do?
At present, it is useless to think about what you have and what you don't have. The only thing that needs to be done is to hurry up and find a way to stop this, otherwise, it will be very difficult for "Fast and Furious 2" to be released in the United States, let alone the global release.
Even the producer who relied on John's relationship last time refused to cooperate this time.
Putting down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, Xu Yang rushed directly from Shengshi Huacheng to Dream Entertainment Company. There are a lot of people, maybe there will be a way to deal with it.
The news, Cao Han's side also knew, and when Xu Yang arrived at the Dream Entertainment Company, she said: "I think this time the incident is very sudden, it should be someone deliberately targeting us." ”
Speaking of this, Xu Yang's eyes also lit up, yes! In the past, his company also acted like this in Hollywood, so why didn't he see the targets of those entertainment giant companies?
However, who is the person behind it, Xu Yang doesn't want to discuss it now, what is key for them at present is how to release "Fast and Furious 2", and it is to achieve their expectations.
Xu Yang, Yang Mu and others all entered a misunderstanding, organized the language, Cao Han said: "I remember, there are a total of eight entertainment giant companies in Hollywood, and only three of them are currently targeting us, and the other five are still waiting, this is our opportunity." ”
In Xu Yang's surprised gaze, Cao Han continued: "Every movie released by our Dream Entertainment Company has been a huge success, and the box office alone will make those entertainment giants jealous, in this case, it is not a very unexpected thing to want someone to join forces to target." However, those companies that are still waiting, I guess, must still be waiting to be sold. ”
"What do you mean?"
Since Cao Han has a draft, Xu Yang also wants to listen carefully.
After a pause, Cao Han said: "I think, those five companies, not to mention all, there must be someone who wants to get the script you wrote, because you are a gold medal screenwriter, with your script, the success rate after the movie is shot and released is very high, although you are not a Hollywood movie star, but the reputation has spread over there, as long as it is operated a little, before the release, the pre-sale will definitely not be bad." ”
Looking at Xu Yang, Cao Han continued: "In this case, I think they are waiting for us to come to the door to discuss the conditions!"
After listening to Cao Han's words, Xu Yang also had a clear idea in his heart, it turned out that what he was worried about was not so bad, the three Hollywood entertainment giants looked scary, and their energy was quite amazing, but they couldn't represent the whole of Hollywood.
The reason why many theaters have rejected the cooperation of Dream Entertainment is that they are only worried about the cooperation of the three companies, if it is really like Cao Han's analysis, I think about it, there is quite a lot of room for maneuver in this matter.
It's just that there isn't much time left for Xu Yang to think.
"Fast and Furious 2" is about to be released, and it is not good to talk about the conditions, and I can't find a strong backing from the background, and the publicity work done in the early stage is a waste!
Sighing softly, Xu Yang called back Jiang Ying, who was still in Kyoto.
Now, it is Xu Yang and Dream Entertainment Company that are anxious, not the five entertainment giant companies that did not show up.
Negotiation becomes a necessity.
This kind of thing should be handed over to Jiang Ying and Cao Han, who are better at it!
Yang Mu and Joan in Los Angeles are still a little immature. Jiang Ying is more familiar with that side, and Cao Han has a clear mind and understands the pros and cons and the scope of his own bearing.
It's just that the thought of selling his script and getting some cooperation makes Xu Yang's heart always feel a little uncomfortable.
After such a experience, it seems that we have to speed up the pace of acquiring theaters!
When he went to Hollywood to open a branch, Xu Yang understood that it was very difficult for a Chinese to gain a foothold there. If you want to strengthen yourself, in addition to a good script, crew, director, and producer, you also need enough theaters, otherwise, no matter how good a movie is, it will be in vain.
There are fewer theaters, fewer screens, and if you want to recover the funds for filming, it is not the same as enough, let alone others.
returned to Shengshi Huacheng with a somewhat depressed mood, and was immediately questioned by Liu Ruoning and Xu Wan'er, who were concerned about this matter. They were also very happy to learn that there was a solution.
It's a good thing that this movie is released without problems!
As for what Cao Han said, with the script written by Xu Yang as the negotiation condition, Liu Ruoning felt that there was nothing, first, Xu Yang had also written scripts for other companies, and besides, no matter how great the ability of Dream Entertainment Company was, the movies shot in a year were also limited, and in Liu Ruoning's eyes, Xu Yang's talent for writing scripts was unlimited.
In this case, it is better to write more of your own scripts, so that they can all shine in Hollywood.
If he thought about it like this, Xu Yang would feel better.
If he calmed down and thought about it, he also felt that what Liu Ruoning said was not unreasonable.
In the past few years, he has given up writing TV drama scripts and only wrote movie scripts, but the directors of Dream Entertainment Company are only four people, two in China and two in Los Angeles.
If you count it, it's really not as fast as Xu Yang writing the script. He can write more than a dozen scripts a year with little to say. It just so happens that handing over the scripts that you have in your mind that the current Dream Entertainment Company is unable to shoot to those entertainment giants can be regarded as a good home for the crew!
