Hollywood's Big Six, Disney is the biggest wonder.

Most of its films are high-input, and the effects are either high-output or a mess.

Hollywood has the law of 'one life, one death', and Disney dares to do it!

They don't care, the entire Disney empire has formed a scale, the simplest example is that Disney currently has 8 TV stations, 6 of which occupy the top 10 in the US TV home market!

Ostentatious!

The annual cash flow is more than $40 billion!

In the case that production capacity and IP construction do not have an advantage, acquisition is one of the simplest, most direct and powerful methods.

Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm including Fox Film!

In 2017, Disney officially bought a number of Fox properties for $52.4 billion...

What's more, Zhen Jiba is rich, and the combined market value of China's film and television companies (listed) is less than $52.4 billion...

Of course, the film business has always been Disney's focus, and only with content can it sell merchandise and build new theme parks.

The total production cost of "The Avengers" is as high as 220 million, plus the announcement has broken 300 million US dollars, such a big production carries the end of the first phase of the Marvel Universe, if the global box office fails to break 1 billion, it will be a failure!

The whole of Disney takes this very seriously.

Especially the fiasco of "Alien Battlefield"...

Import buyout refers to a film in which a domestic filmmaker buys out the screening rights of a film from a foreign filmmaker at a fixed price, and the foreign filmmaker does not participate in China's box office share.

Our country's policy on films is very special, and there are only two companies that have the right to distribute imported films, China Film and China Film.

However, private companies can apply to the Film Bureau for review by way of buyout, and if the review is passed, they can obtain the right to distribute.

After the buyout, imported films enjoy about 40% of the theatrical account sharing like domestic films...

Of the 64 imported films in China every year, in addition to nearly 34 blockbusters, the remaining 30 are buyouts.

Generally speaking, blockbusters produced by first-line productions will not enter the domestic market in the form of buyouts if they want to participate in the box office share, because the price given by the filmmaker will be very low.

With the mentality of picking up leaks, the purchase price of the general buy out piece is about 50,000-100,000 US dollars...

Even "The Expendables" only paid $500,000 to win the buyout price!

Of course, these were the mindsets of a few years ago.

There are no fools in Hollywood, it is impossible to give the benefits to Chinese businessmen for nothing, and the buyout price of "Iron Man 3" is as high as 30 million US dollars!

"The Avengers", as an ambitious work of the Marvel Universe, certainly wants to take more money.

It's just $50 million, which is a bit outrageous...

It's 2012, and the influence of Marvel superheroes in China is very limited, and the highest-grossing "Iron Man 2" has only a box office result of 179 million yuan.

With 50 million US dollars, it takes at least $150 million at the box office to achieve profitability, which needs to break one billion when converted into RMB!

If I am not mistaken, the domestic box office of "The Avengers" should not have exceeded 600 million!

Even if Huiwen Tianxia owns the domestic video copyright of the "Women's Federation", it is estimated that it is unlikely to make a profit...

Gunhui decisively rejected Kukdik's offer of price.

"And how much do you think is appropriate?"

Cook Dick put on a negotiating look.

"$15 million... Listen to me first. ”

Xu Huicai quoted, and Cook Dick already looked incredible, as if he felt that his IQ had been insulted...

What a special drama!

There are no fools in Hollywood!

Xu Hui stopped Cook Dick's performance: "What do you expect from the Chinese box office of 'Women's Federation'?"

“… More than $100 million..."

"Unlikely!"

"No, No, Xu, you don't know the Chinese market, it is already the second largest film market in the world after the United States, as far as I know, you already have more than 10,000 screens, your box office potential..."

Xu Hui smiled on his lips and watched the foreigner's performance as quietly as a chicken.

I don't know about the Chinese film market?

You should really go out and ask...

“… You've got the biggest diamond in the world, and a $100 million box office is easy..."

Finally waiting for Cook Dick to finish boasting, Xu Hui spoke: "... First of all, the popularity of the Marvel series in China is not very high, so far, the highest-grossing "Iron Man 2" has not yet reached 25 million US dollars, from the perspective of series development, the current "Women's Federation" will definitely not be able to achieve a high box office in China, not to mention 100 million even if it is 50 million, I think it is very difficult!"

Before Cook Dick could say something, Xu Hui waved his hand: "The box office is 50 million US dollars, and only a quarter of what you can get your hands on, I offer 15 million, which is already very reasonable, after all, we still need to spend some effort to promote this movie..."

"I need to confirm. ”

Cook Dick opened his mouth to say something, and finally chose to call.

……

The venue was Cookdice's office, and Xu Hui sat in the guest chair and took the ice water handed by the secretary.

Huiwen Tianxia produces only ten movies at most every year, after all, the directors are limited, the staff is also limited, and the co-production will not be higher than fifteen!

This amount is a bit small, at least in Xu Hui's opinion.

Counting 2012, Chinese films ushered in a furious growth, with as many as 500 films released every year, and they had to find ways to expand their film library.

A buyout issuance is a good option.

This time he is just tentative, if appropriate, the follow-up Huiwen will be responsible for the domestic distribution of most of Disney's films...

Of course, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among many people, especially Zhongying.

The biggest advantage of China Film is the distribution of imported films, once this thing is cut off, it means that they have no food guys.

For the Film Bureau, of course China Film is his own son, but there is nothing wrong with Huiwen Tianxia doing this, it is completely in accordance with the rules and procedures, people are willing to sell the film to me, I will distribute it, and there is nothing wrong with the movie, why should I be stuck?

Strange, this obvious loophole, why are so many film and television companies in the original time and space not franchised?

You can make a lot of money by selling it!

Could it be that there is something hidden here?

At this moment, Cook Dick hung up the phone with a smile on his lips: "Xu, we agreed to your buyout!"

“… Really?"

It was only three minutes, and you agreed?

"But, in terms of price, I think we can talk about it later!"

“… $15 million is already the limit!"

"No, listen to me, according to the terms of account sharing, if we cooperate with China Film, we can only get a quarter of the box office share, this is right?"

“… Yes, that's right. ”

"But if we give you the movie as a buyout, you can get 40 percent of the box office, right?"

Cookdick continued to follow the temptation, but Cannon Hui vaguely sensed something, and sure enough, he proposed: "Well, what do you think of the agreed price of 35 percent of the box office share for each movie?"

Perhaps feeling that he was not very clear, he continued: "That five percent is considered to be the remuneration as a partner..."

“… I'm sorry, I'll leave for a while..."

After listening to Cook Dick's statement, Cannon Hui left the office directly.

He was afraid that he would not be able to help but do it!
