"Linda is very happy, is there any good news to share with us?" Seeing that Fang Yufu answered a phone call outside, and was very happy when he came back, Spielberg asked curiously. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"We also invested in a film in Xiangjiang, which had a good reputation for two weeks after its release, and the total box office counted today has exceeded 35 million Hong Kong dollars. A comedy film invested in South Korea also exceeded 3.8 million viewers, and it is no problem to exceed 4 million this year. Fang Yufu said with a smile.

"Andy, I didn't expect you to be so successful in South Korea." Spielberg said in some surprise.

He has cooperated with CJ, so he naturally knows what kind of weight this moviegoer occupies in the Korean film market. He didn't expect that Liu Anran had not only succeeded in the United States, but also invested in good movies in South Korea and Xiangjiang.

"It's a little bit more lucky, but the films invested over there basically can't expect to make too much money, it's nothing more than to improve the company's image." Liu Anran said with a smile.

He was also very satisfied with this result, but there were not too many surprises. The results of these two films have been proven in later generations, and he is not worried at all.

For Liu Anran's appearance, some people are not used to it, not Fang Yufu but Tang Shenshen. She didn't know why she was a little annoyed when she saw Liu Anran's expression now, and she wanted to rub him hard.

But she's better than Joe? Decater is much smarter, and knows that Liu Anran is very careful when he makes these films, and he can't find it at all if you find a loophole to hit him in this regard. So she sprinkled the gas on the steak and cut it with a clang.

"You talk, I'm upset." Feeling the surprised eyes of others, Tang said without raising his head.

Although everyone is an acquaintance, she also knows that the action just now is a bit rude. But she couldn't explain the reason to everyone, so she could only hold on.

"Andy, how far does Dream Media develop in your heart? Do you want to continue to expand? Spielberg asked curiously.

"No, our company is now going to fully enter the stage of laying the foundation. Don't look at the fact that our company is developing a lot now, and the debt that MGM is carrying is not easy. Liu Anran shook his head and said.

"Now our company is to do a good job in the four categories of programs: movies, TV series, variety shows, and records. Otherwise, our small company can't afford to be surrounded by your big companies. ”

"You all know that a movie seems to have a lot at the box office. But how much money does it really fall into our pockets? East and west, how much is left? We're counting more on the sale of DVDs and merchandise. ”

"Even the last time I proposed to you, it was only a cooperation and not an acquisition. We really don't have much money, so many movies need to be invested, and we can't make them without money. ”

It's hard to owe money, especially if you owe a lot of money. Although there is an agreement with Citibank, the interest on the loan next year can be delayed, but there are still many places where money is needed.

The value that a good film can create is very high, but it doesn't mean that as soon as your film is released, how much revenue can be credited to your account the next day, there is a long payment period.

The films invested by Dream Media during this period are still very good, at least they can recover their investment from the box office, with a slight surplus. But as a big part of the profits, you can't release the DVD at the same time as the film is released, right? Who else will watch your movie that way.

So the problem arises, the investment in the film will not wait for you to earn all that money back. If you want MGM to be revived, you have to improve the quantity and quality of films. These films are almost the same as starting at the same time now, and the next two years will also be two difficult years, and only by surviving these two years can the entire industry run benignly.

Don't think that Citibank has good intentions to encourage Liu Anran to continue borrowing, when your debt ratio reaches a certain height, they will be more kind to intervene in the company's operations.

"I thought your footsteps would not stop, and you would continue to expand." Spielberg said with a smile.

"You don't have to lie to me, in order to make up for the lack of the animation department, you bought Pixar Animation Studios. Now in terms of special effects, you also have shortcomings. And in the future, special effects will never be separated from the filming process, will you not buy special effects companies? ”

"I thought, one is out of money, and the other is now even if I want to buy it, will they sell it?" Liu Anran rolled his eyes and said.

"Peter? Jackson's Weta Numbers, George? Lucas's ILM, do you think they'll sell it? The only thing that can be considered is the digital field, but there are still investment banks involved in the digital field, and there are too many things to do in the future. ”

Buying a special effects company, he didn't think that he would understand the role of a special effects company better than people now. But now, even if you have money, you can buy it up.

We work with ILM and the digital sector, and if you want to produce a lot of special effects for your films, you will come to these two companies. If you need less, you can give it to Pixar directly.

If in the past, he still had a little confidence in the near future George? Lucas snatched Industrial Light & Magic when he retired, but looking at the current momentum, I'm afraid there really isn't a chance.

Disney not only did not win in this round of acquisitions, but also snatched Pixar and Marvel in advance, and they who want to expand will not miss Lucasfilm.

"Smith, do you see? As I said, he is very ambitious. How can a MGM satisfy him, and his expansion will continue in the future, his ambition is to dominate Hollywood. Spielberg shrugged his shoulders and said to Smith.

"How can you be without ambition? Who of us doesn't have ambitions? For us, making money is secondary. Liu Anran shook his head.

"Please, you two don't take me into account, okay? I'm still trying to make money, I'm not as rich as you guys. In the future, you should be made to pay for all the consumption. Smith said depressedly.

"You're not bad, are you? We're the ones who work for you. Fang Yufu said jokingly with his hand.

"You're not a part-time job, you're working for your own family." Liu Anran said shyly.

Spielberg shook his head helplessly, sometimes Liu Anran is very surprising, but sometimes Liu Anran seems to be very naïve.
