Chapter 260: Monsters
"This is the outfit you picked?" Li Mo looked at Zhang Ting and said. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
She wore a mid-length slim-fitting tweed dress with a slim plaid bib skirt over the waist.
The weather is cold, and from the perspective of temperature, there is nothing wrong with wearing it this way. And this style is also in line with the more popular styles in Xiangjiang now, and you can see how popular Xiangjiang strap skirts have been in recent years when you watch the movie.
"What's wrong?"
"There's certainly nothing wrong with the clothes, but what kind of people are this style suitable for? Women between the ages of thirty and fifty-five wear it, people look slim and spiritual, you are more big, is it suitable to wear? Li Mo rubbed her head.
"Ah, why don't you say that?"
"You kicked me out, what do I say?"
It also reminded Li Mo that this should also be explained, not through the waiter, it must be clearly written on the first page of the manual, if it is in a direct sales store, it must be clearly written on the price tag. Otherwise, an aunt comes to buy clothes worn by a little girl, and the waiter can't say, you are old, this style is not suitable for you to wear, and that will offend the customer.
"This ......"
"Let me see what clothes you bought."
"You wait," Zhang Ting immediately carried the bag to the bathroom, and hid her underwear together anyway, which made Li Mo look at her bag.
Li Mo picked and denied several clothes in a row.
"Didn't you let you choose, why did you pick so few? Come back, I'll take you to pick it up. Li Mo flipped over, and then picked out a V-neck bow belt slim velvet skirt, one is that it is very warm, the second is that it looks very thin, but it is not, the third is more close-fitting, the fourth is the waist, which makes the figure look slimmer, of course, the chest will look fuller, the fourth is a small V opening, which is not exposed, but it is a little sexy, and the other is that it has a ribbon waist, which makes the whole style more elegant, retro and more ladylike. The color is also good, pink, which is suitable for Zhang Ting's age.
"Wrap up these sets, return them to the company when you go back, and I'll take you to pick them."
"Hmm." Zhang Ting nodded obediently, Li Mo can open a big clothing company, and he will also become more beautiful, and his vision must be stronger than himself.
It's not that Li Mo has a better vision than her, but Li Mo has seen many later styles and dresses.
In addition, he stayed in Yili company for many days, and read a lot of fashion books, which increased his knowledge of clothing.
Zhang Ting ran to the bathroom to change her clothes.
"Aren't there many mirrors in the warehouse? Why don't you take a picture and see how different it is from which dress you just had? ”
But in terms of fashion, Zhang Ting is the same thing in another time and space, although she found a rich husband in the future, she is far inferior to Fan Bing.
This is also the reason why she has a first-class appearance and has not been on fire.
"It's just a little tight......"
"You little breasts, what are you afraid of?"
"I ......" Zhang Ting was angry, pounced on Li Mo to grab her, and asked Li Mo to grab her hand and touch her buttocks.
"Hey, T-......"
"Don't talk nonsense."
"Don't, I won't say it." Li Mo said and laughed again.
"Laugh again, I'll replace it."
"Don't change it, do you know why this style is there? And not just for sexiness, by the time of summer, there are dresses that are very thin and wear it without visible marks. You really don't understand...... I'm not going to leave these days, you have a look around the Yili headquarters...... Alas, I don't even understand English. ”
"I don't learn English much in school."
"Study during this time, even if you are an actor, you need some talents, look at some actors in Hollywood, don't look at their life circle is a bit chaotic, some have high academic qualifications, and some are Harvard top students."
"My family is poor."
"Poverty is one thing, on the other hand, you are stupid, you really got into a good university, don't you study at home?"
Zhang Ting rolled her eyes angrily.
"Want to read?"
"Yes."
"After studying, you can't be an actor again."
"I don't know, anyway, I'm an actor first, and then my family still expects me to make money."
"Need money?"
"I don't want your money, I earn it, and I spend it with peace of mind."
Li Mo thought to himself, silly girl, if it weren't for me, Lao Shao would have allowed you to play such an important role, and how much money would you earn? But this is also the reason why he takes a fancy to her, she is not too snobbish, and throughout her previous life, she has never relied on scandals and exposed flesh to become famous. It is rare to be able to do this step in your circle.
"Let's go."
The two walked out, and Liu Xiangzhong said, "Miss Zhang, wearing this skirt, I immediately changed to another person." ”
Uncle Qin also watched from the side, thinking, this little girl is so beautiful. But he was also relieved, not pretty, and the little boss wouldn't keep her with him all the time, but the little boss's attitude, he couldn't figure it out. Let's talk about falling in love, absolutely not, let's talk about playing, let alone not.
In fact, I'm afraid that if Li Moruo reflects, he can't figure out his mentality, and at this point, it can't be said to be a simple help.
Li Mo didn't bother to think about it.
got on the plane, Li Mo did not have a poisonous tongue this time, but looked at the book quietly.
Zhang Ting suddenly felt that Li Mo was very pitiful, so rich, but all the way over, what I saw was that Li Mo was either doing errands or reading books, and the only pastime was to brush himself.
However, she also knows in her heart that don't look at Li Mo's poisonous mouth, she is actually good for herself.
These three times made her see a lot and hear a lot, not only broadened her eyes, but also saw the good side of the outside world, the evil side, the bright side, the dark and ruthless dangerous side.
She looked at Li Mo, and suddenly a maternal love surged in her heart, gently pulling Li Mo's arm.
Li Mo woke up and asked, "What are you doing?" Are you a little sufferer? ”
"What do you mean by Xiaoshou?"
"The more others abuse you, the more you like him, to put it bluntly, the one who is beaten up, or the psychopath."
"You are the little shou, you are the little shou." Zhang Ting was furious.
"You are a small attack, I am a small attack."
Of course, Li Mo explained what it means to be a small attack, and the meaning of a small attack does not need to be explained.
Zhang Ting ignored Li Mo angrily.
Flying to Los Angeles, Hollick personally greeted them.
Li Mo sat in the co-pilot, Hao Like handed over more than a dozen reports, and then said excitedly: "Boss, it is developed, even if Xiangjiang has no harvest, it is also developed this time." ”
The market will not open until next Monday.
But Li Mo knows how big the harvest is for Xiangjiang.
Hao Like said again: "Boss, you are so wise, you have only done two days, if you have one more day, you will lose money today." ”
This one...... Li Mo really can't remember, it's a complete coincidence.
But at this point, all countries and regions, except for Xiangjiang, the harvest has come out together.
Hao Lick still has a lot to do today, he has to lead his team to find all the holders of the two funds, sign new contracts with them, and then wait for the money.
The one who gained the most was Li Mo, and Jobs and them, because they were holding Microsoft shares at that time, Li Mo used Microsoft shares as collateral twice, and they made a lot of profits. But Hao Like blamed himself a little, if he could have said a little more at that time, the more loans he had mortgaged, and the more profits he would have made.
Hao Lick said: "Boss, your current wealth can also rank first in the United States. ”
"Hao Like, remember, don't say this in the future, as a Chinese, there are places where you have to keep a low profile. If asked by the media, you will say that there are many shareholders' capital, and you will prevaricate in the past, and do not highlight my gains. ”
The media has a very developed sense of smell, and after the stock market crash, various media have reported it, but not everyone is crying, and some venture funds have made a lot of profits this time, so that the media have checked them one by one, including the two funds in Li Mo's hands. How much profit the two funds made, and how much Li Mo benefited in the middle, the media is not clear. But there must have been a lot of gains, and the media was reporting on it yesterday.
Li Mo gave another thing and handed it to Hao Like: "Find a public station and read it out." ”
Hao Like looked at it and said, "Okay, this can improve the image of the boss and avoid taxes." ”
The harvest is big, and the tax will be a lot.
Not all of them are advanced by the IRS, but the above figures, the IRS will advance half of it, that is, the remaining half...... Li Mo has made a good name again.
Hallick drove the car to Universal Pictures.
After more than a year of tossing and turning in Jurassic Park, the post-production special effects are almost the same, and it happened that Li Mo came to the United States, and the two film companies asked Li Mo to watch the sample film again.
In addition, it is Snowpiercer, this movie is about to be released, the North American box office has reached more than 60 million, and the overseas box office has reached more than 30 million, which has not yet been released, and it is estimated that after the release, the total box office will be close to 110 million.
Hollywood is not the best this year, and several movies have exceeded $100 million at the North American box office, but it is both popular and blockbuster, that is, this Snowpiercer. For example, the two major winners of the Academy Awards next year, the sultry moonlight and the last emperor, are not very good at the box office.
Although Warner didn't make a lot of money, it can be regarded as a middle earning, Happy Warner owner Steve Ross smiled, and the Oscars were still early, but the Golden Globes were coming, and Snowpiercer became the favorite for the Golden Globes.
In this movie, Li Mo played four roles, the pulling role of the theme song, the inspiration of the theme song to the old card, the role of re-editing, the inspiration of the soundtrack, and insisted on leaving that ending, although it made many serious old-fashioned dissatisfied, but it was this ending that made the movie bright, including the attraction of rotten girls, and some people have commented that this ending has brought more than 10 million box office to Snowpiercer.
In addition, two people have been created, Lao Ka has become more and more important to Hollywood, and Schwarzenegger's tough guy image is also quite popular.
The two studios breathed a sigh of relief that at least Snowpiercer was released ahead of schedule and would not be a drag on Jurassic Park.
Everyone started watching.
Li Mo had seen it in his previous life, and it was a little better, but this blockbuster had a huge impact on Zhang Ting, Liu Xiangzhong, and Uncle Qin.
After watching it, Liu Xiangzhong muttered: "Can the movie be filmed like this? ”
Li Mo said in a low voice in Chinese: "It was the money that burned." ”
Poor Zhang Ting is not sober yet, Lao Lu and Lao Si are very satisfied with the performance of several people, as for Li Mo's performance, the two of them automatically neglected the past, and the performance of abnormal people was not ...... There is no reference value.
Li Mo slapped his face, and Lao Si said, "It's okay, I didn't spoil your book, right?" ”
"Okay, absolutely." There's almost no soundtrack, but it's easy, and with two months left before the release date, there's enough time.
Old Joe ran over and said, "Hug one first." ”
The contract was not signed, and Lao Qiao didn't know how much money he had made, but he knew that as long as Li Mo participated, he would earn a lot this time. Then I called Bill Gates, who didn't say anything, only said, much more than you think.
Enough, Lao Qiao hugged that enthusiastic, that gloomy soul.
"Let go, let go." Li Mo couldn't stand it anymore.
Lao Lu and Lao Si also reacted and had an affectionate hug with Li Mo, but they didn't invest as much as Jobs, not much, but Jobs invested early, and there was a Microsoft stock rolling.
Zhang Ting knows all these people, Jobs is a good friend of Li Mo, Lao Lu and Lao Si are big Hollywood directors, Zhang Ting thought, no wonder some actors in Xiangjiang said that this bad guy is very popular in Hollywood.
Executives from Universal and Paramount asked, "Lee, are you still satisfied?" ”
"If you're satisfied, don't move like this, if you do, it's not beautiful." Li Mo said that the main film of this movie is 137 minutes long, the subtitles are not counted, the length is just right, slightly different from the previous life, but it is not worse than the one in the previous life in all aspects.
"Li, it's going to be announced next."
"Okay, my money, in a few days, it will be credited to your account." Li Mo said that some countries have a long settlement day, and some countries have a short settlement date, but this time because of the stock market crash, the audit may be stricter, and the time will be delayed, but next week, the money will arrive in the account one after another, and Li Mo cannot embezzle the other three investments, and his money can be used as he pleases. There were two executives who also knew why it arrived in a few days, and they also invested money into two funds...... After listening, laugh at Mimi's.
Li Mo asked Uncle Qin to take out a document from his briefcase.
They are derivatives of the design of Velvet Deke and Yile for Jurassic Park, not only toys, but also pens, fans, handbags, umbrellas, tissues, cups, notepads, T-shirts, posters, etc., even toys, are varied, all kinds of products, more than 90 sets of products.
Don't underestimate these derivatives, Li Mo remembers that the best derivatives in his previous life were Star Wars, followed by Cars, whose derivatives reached four billion dollars. There are many reasons for this, Star Wars is robots, and Cars is a car toy, both of which are relatively best-selling toys. Secondly, the development of derivatives, if the developer does not develop well, the income of derivatives will be pitiful. For example, the three Star Wars in Lao Lu's hands have relatively little derivative income. It wasn't until Disney took over Star Wars that it tapped into its potential, and that would be decades later. Finally, there is a timeliness, once the movie is released, it is too late to design and produce, and when it is released, who will it sell to?
Therefore, a movie with a good theme, the developer attaches importance to and designs it in advance, and the product is well designed, it often achieves amazing income, especially for cartoons, there is a marketing word, called the 28 rule, the box office revenue only accounts for 20%, and the real 80% income comes from the authorization and profit of derivatives.
There are many people who have benefited from this process, Yile, Rongdeke, two film companies, local distributors and cinema stores, and there is no doubt that the two film companies must account for the majority. Coupled with Yile's initiative to reduce profits, the two film companies will account for nearly 20% of the profits.
Paramount and several executives from Universal looked at these derivatives and inhaled cold air. At this time, Hollywood began to pay attention to derivatives, but it has not yet paid attention to Li Mo, which is simply frustrating.
Li Mo said with a smile: "Don't worry about the cost of publicity, just these derivatives are enough to recover the cost of publicity." ”
"It's just that the magic capital is a little far away."
"It's okay, Yile and Modu have negotiated, if you rush for time, you can charter a plane to send various derivatives over."
The high cost of charter flights will further dilute the already thin profits, so most of the derivatives are produced in advance as much as possible and shipped to the United States by sea. But no one knows how many derivatives can be sold, especially for crazy derivatives like Li Mo, Hollywood may be the first time in history.
Li Mo asked again: "Do you still think the cost of this film is high?" ”
The production cost of this film has already cost 94 million US dollars, and it is not over yet, but there is not much money to be spent later, so the two companies claim that the production cost is 100 million ...... Not counting the tens of millions of publicity and distribution costs, and then think about the horror sales of this novel, Hollywood studios have instigated together, including Paramount and Universal's own films, not to avoid it, but to avoid it so as not to become cannon fodder.
Unbelief? Let's look at "Blade Runner", which cost 28 million and is known as one of the greatest science fiction movies, but it hit "ET the Extra-Terrestrial", and the box office only received 27 million hundreds of thousands, so much so that I couldn't even recognize my family.
Anyway, this film has stirred up the Hollywood market this year.
But what about the actual cost? If the derivatives keep the cost of publicity and distribution, as well as the income from inserting advertising, its real cost will drop to 80 million, and the global box office of 200 million will be able to keep the capital. If the box office of 200 million can't be reached, it is better to commit suicide by hitting the wall.
Simply put, several high-level executives smiled lightly together. Of course, Li Mo can also understand that in an era when the cost of a blockbuster film is generally only two or three hundred million US dollars, a movie with a cost of hundreds of millions of dollars suddenly appears, and everyone is under pressure, so they are afraid of putting it down.
Liu Xiangzhong asked in a low voice: "BOSS, will it be released in Xiangjiang?" ”
"Inevitably."
"This is a monster, and the Xiangjiang movie has also been messed up."
"Certainly, but remember what I said?"
