Chapter 590: Calculating Fox
"Looks like you have a lot of goals. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info, but that's also a good thing for us at Dragon Pictures. In that case, let's talk about the global box office. After all, this is what we ultimately earn! Situ Haojie looked at Chen Jie and said。
"Four or five hundred million!" Chen Jie said disappreciatively.
"How much?" Situ Haojie looked at Chen Jie in surprise, and I got it: "Ajie, I'm asking for dollars!" ”
Not to mention Situ Haojie,Even Li Zhipeng looked at Chen Jie in a daze.
"I'm not talking about Hong Kong dollars!" Chen Jie looked at the two of them with a smile and said.
Situ Haojie and Li Zhipeng were stunned for a long time before coming back to their senses,I saw Situ Haojie jump up from the sofa all of a sudden,Rushed to Chen Jie's side, dragged Chen Jie's clothes and said,"You kid isn't teasing me, right! ”
It's no wonder that Situ Haojie is so excited,If this "Ghost Love" can really have such a high box office,Even if you throw out the expenses such as distribution and theater dividends,Longteng Pictures can earn nearly 200 million US dollars。 This still doesn't count the profit of the videotape, and if it is all counted, I don't know how to make it
How much is it? Even if it is to give half to Hong Kong, it is definitely a huge amount of money for the American Dragon Pictures, which was just established last year!
"Haojie, what are you doing. Calm down! Li Zhipeng said when he saw Situ Haojie feeling like this。
Lin Xin and Zhao Yuzhi were originally talking like homely on the side, but they also noticed the situation here when they were made by Situ Haojie. I thought it was Situ Haojie and Chen Jie who had a dispute. So he hurriedly walked over to the three of them.
"What's wrong? Haojie, too,What's not to say clearly。 You have to do it, are you Applejack's opponent! Don't let go yet! Lin Xin walked over and looked at Situ Haojie and said。
Situ Haojie also calmed down after listening to Li Zhipeng and Lin Xin's words,After letting go of Chen Jie's clothes, he looked at everyone with some embarrassment and said
"It's that I'm so excited. But Applejack, you're sure you're not kidding me! ”
"Brother Jie will know when our movie is released!" Chen Jie always smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now, how is James Cameron?" Is his "Terminator" filmed complete? ”
"The shooting is done, but the post-production is very troublesome, but it shouldn't be long before the film is ready! I've already said hello to 20th Century Fox. A conservative estimate is that they can provide us with 300 screens. If it's really exciting after the film, I'll add it to us
800 screens! If the response is good after the release, it will continue to increase! "Situ Haojie said"Speaking of which, we can get such favorable conditions,On the one hand, it is because 20th Century Fox is one of the investors。 On the other hand, because our last year's "Saw Horror" did make them money
Few. The cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars has achieved a box office of more than 80 million. It's a cinematic marvel! ”
"That's for the best. Maintaining such a good cooperative relationship is very beneficial to the development of our Longteng. As long as we keep the momentum going. When "Ghost Love" is released, we can discuss with Fox about reducing the distribution fee. I believe that Fox will not have anything at that time
Ho's opinion. Chen Jie said with a smile.
"What can they say? You must know that our current dividend ratio is only 45%. That's what made 20th Century Fox a lot of money for us. The average large-scale production can reach at least 55%, and even some can reach 60%. It's only when we Longteng Pictures have just been established that we have gotten so low
dividends. If 20th Century Fox doesn't give us a reduction in distribution fees, then I believe that both Universal and Warner will be willing to give us such a price! ”
"Hehe, not only that, but the financial situation of 20th Century Fox in recent years has not been very good, if we convert to another company, it will definitely be a fatal blow to 20th Century Fox. So I believe that when the time comes, 20th Century Fox will give us the conditions
Far better than other companies! Chen Jie said with a smile.
Chen Jie clearly remembers that in 85 years, the 20th Century Fox was acquired by the Australian media king Murdoch due to poor management. Even Murdoch changed his nationality to the United States in order to be able to successfully acquire Fox. Although Chen Jie didn't know how much money Murdoch spent at that time, he to
In '89, Sony acquired Colombia for comparison. If you take inflation into account. At the very least, it will cost more than a billion dollars, and you must know that Murdoch did not wholly acquire 20th Century Fox at the beginning, but only bought half of the shares. So it shouldn't cost too much money. Speaking of which
Chen Jie also wanted to get involved. After all, it was 20th Century Fox! One of the eight major Hollywood studios. However, this money made Chen Jie worried. There are only two years to go, where to get more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars. What worries Chen Jie the most is that if he misses this opportunity, then Chen
Jay would have to pay a lot more to buy a Hollywood company. In 89, Sony acquired Colombia, but it cost 6 billion US dollars! And Colombia means a different thing to Americans. Although Li Feng got Chen Jie an American nationality to avoid some trouble. but
After all, Chen Jie is a Chinese, and he can't say whether he will provoke some people to boycott Colombia if he buys Colombia. You must know that Sony has lost money for more than ten years in a row. If you can buy 20th Century Fox before Murdoch, and then let Murdoch go with Akio Morita
Fighting for Colombia, even if Murdoch can't fight Akio Morita in the end, it will definitely make Sony bleed again. This is what Chen Jie wants to see. But there is another problem during this period, Chen Jie has to get at least $2 billion in two years before he can win before Murdoch
20th Century Fox! 2 billion US dollars, 156 billion Hong Kong dollars, even Chen Jie will feel a headache for this.
"If only it could be two years later! You can also make a fortune with the Plaza Accord. It should be about the same. Chen Jie thought to himself.
"Applejack, what do you want? Did you hear what I said? Situ Haojie's voice interrupted Chen Jie's contemplation.
Chen Jie looked at Situ Haojie with some embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Jie." Just suddenly thought of something than something. Distracted, what did you just say? ”
