Chapter 152 Xiao Wu's version * right
Xiao Wu won the Silver Bear at the Berlin Film Festival, which almost everyone did not expect, and the advantage of doing this is that subsequently, in the communication session of the film festival, distributors in many countries will be interested in the film.
The Silver Bear at the Berlin Film Festival, it's quite high, I can't get the Silver Bear, but can I see what the Silver Bear is like?
Therefore, many publishers have come to inquire about Xiao Wu's situation, Jia Zhangke was originally responsible for introducing the situation to everyone, but in terms of his English, he is half-baked, and it is okay to deal with China, but if he deals with foreigners, it is not so easy.
A group of people in Japan, at first glance, are people from Japan, this diǎn, I believe that any Chinese person will have this kind of ability, the kind of hatred that emanates from the bones, there will be no mistake, Jia Zhangke is obviously not very cool about this kidnapping guy, so the whole person became gloomy.
At this time, Luo Tian knew that this senior brother was too persistent when filming, so he would not be able to deal with interpersonal relationships or anything, and the hatred between Huaxia and Japan could not be forgotten, but he could make money from the Japanese, which was the best way to retaliate against Japan.
Therefore, in fact, Luo Tian is very unlucky in his heart, and he understands that the coolest thing is to be able to make Japanese money.
It wasn't an outsider at the moment, but the Japanese journalist I met while reporting from the festival. At this moment, the reporter walked over very respectfully, Jia Zhangke didn't come forward, at least Luo Tian couldn't not come forward.
There are two representatives in this crew, one is the director Jia Zhangke, this diǎn is undoubted, and the other is the starring Luo Tian, relatively speaking, now in Berlin, starring Luo Tian, it is even more familiar, after Xiao Wu's movie was released, there were seven screenings, and the venue was full.
Therefore, Xiao Wu's magical technique is called Oriental witchcraft.
Although Luo Tian said more than once that this was a magic trick, and in front of Leonardo and Simon, he also performed this magic trick in front of the camera, which made the audience cheer for a while, but it was impossible to resist the curiosity of Westerners.
How did Luo Tian do this diǎn, in this way" ▽dǐng "▽diǎn" ▽ small "▽ said, .※.o∽s_(); At one point, in fact, it was very surprising that his performance at the award ceremony not only did not explain clearly what kind of magic it was, but said that he made Westerners more curious that he did it specifically.
After all, the awards ceremony is not a movie, and Luo Tian's methods make many Westerners want to see Xiao Wuzhong Luo Tian's performance.
As a result, Lotien's popularity in Berlin is still quite strong. Therefore, if director Jia Zhangke can't come forward, then on such a question, only Luo Tian will come forward. After all, it is said that on such a problem, sometimes, Luo Tian can also represent the crew.
Sure enough, sometimes Jia Zhangke was reluctant to come forward, and later simply went out directly to Luo Tian himself. Britain, France, Germany, Japan and other nine Chinese speak very fluently, and even Arabic is more authentic than those Middle Eastern tycoons. Therefore, at this time, Xiao Wu's booth became the most popular one.
When the Japanese reporter saw Luo Tian, he looked at Jia Zhangke very politely, which was a respect for the director, and then the Japanese reporter immediately said very politely: "Luo Jun, let me introduce, I am Saburo Ishii, a reporter from the Asahi Shimbun, I apologize to you again, I regret my shallowness, and at the same time congratulate you on winning the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor, this is really a glory for us Asians." ”
On the one hand, they envy and hate Huaxia all kinds of envy and hatred, and they slander and smear Huaxia all kinds of people, anyway, they are the kind of characters who have been professionally black in China for 30 years.
However, if it is said that the Chinese people have achieved any achievements that have attracted worldwide attention, then the Chinese people will not say congratulations, and the Japanese and Koreans will inevitably come to join in the fun, saying that this is the pride of Asians or something. For example, when Liu Feiren won the gold medal and Mr. Mo won the Nobel Prize in Literature, the Japanese and Koreans actually congratulated them for the first time, which was not slower than the Chinese media.
And the Japanese are even more proud of Asians. As for South Korea, in addition to sour congratulations, it will also make some small moves. For example, Liu Feiren has Korean ancestry, and Mr. Mo's ancestral home is Goryeo or something.
Anyway, the world is yours and the world is ours, but at the end of the day, the world is Korean. This kind of attitude is also a kind of self-congratulatory expression.
Of course, stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Luo Tian also said very politely at this moment: "Thank you, thank you, Mr. Ishii brought so many people, didn't he come to congratulate him?" ”
At this time, Saburo Ishii also immediately replied: "Let me introduce you, this is Mr. Sakata Yasu, the president of the Dynamic Imaging Society, this time, one of me is here to apologize, and the other is that Mr. Sakata has something to do with Luo Jun." ”
Sakata An, a short and fat man, Sven Wen, looks very polite little old man, but in Japan, this guy has a very terrible name, tyrant, and the relationship in the Japanese entertainment industry is very deep, Kurosawa Akira and Kitano Takeshi two generations of famous Japanese directors, both have a good relationship with Sakata An, and many Japanese superstars, such as Ken Takakura, have a good relationship with Sakata An.
It looks like a polite old man, but once he loses his temper, it's definitely a surprising temper. But this guy, when facing outsiders, especially those who say he is interested, is very polite, and his posture is also very low.
The boss of Tokyo Imaging walked out very politely, and the people behind him automatically stepped aside, like a number of followers, setting off Sakata Yasu's very great status.
At this moment, Mr. Sakata An said very politely: "Ye San, this time, I am here to negotiate the copyright issue of Xiao Wu's film, we Tokyo Imaging intends to acquire Xiao Wu's copyright, if we can buy the international copyright, then we are willing to bid three million." Buyout Xiao Wu's international rights. ”
This price, in Zhao Tao's opinion, is already very high, after all, Xiao Wu's movie only cost a total of fifty or sixty thousand, counting the later stage and this trip to Berlin, this cost will definitely not exceed 100,000.
Therefore, three million is indeed a very high number to her. Even in such a situation, Jia Zhangke also thinks that the price is very good.
But Luo Tian shook his head and said: "Needless to say, this price, we won't sell, if you want to buy, we can sell the copyright in Japan, and we don't have the intention of selling the rest for the time being." For this movie, I believe that as a film that won the Silver Bear Award, it is worth not three million that can be bought out.
Our director is very confident that there will be someone who knows the same thing as Mr. Sakata. ”
At this time, Jia Zhangke's face is the type of expressionless, but it is precisely because of such an expression that Sakata An is a little undecided, as a director, he has not sold a penny for half a day at this time, and the director is indeed not an ordinary big heart at this time.
Therefore, Sakata An hesitated for a moment and said, "If it is a Japanese copyright, all we can produce is 100,000." ”
The price difference is too big, but Luo Tian didn't take it seriously, but said with a smile: "100,000, this is not enough for us to eat this time, 300,000, I should pay Mr. Sakata this friend."
I believe that 300,000, Japan is not a company that will be interested in this film. "Japan is not the only one in Tokyo, so there is a lot of pressure.
The only thing that Sakata Yasushi is more powerful than others is his decisiveness, and when other Japanese companies are holding on to the currency, he has already contacted Luo Tian through a reporter from the Guò Asahi Shimbun.
This kind of courage is not something that ordinary people can have, you know, it is not a businessman from Japan who is waiting to see.
At this moment, Sakata An hesitated for a moment, and immediately diǎndiǎn head said: "Deal, let's sign the contract, right?" ”
Luo Tian diǎndiǎn head said: "I believe that this will be a pleasant start, this diǎn I believe that Mr. Sakata will not be disappointed, Xiaowu will be a great work." "It's hard to say whether Xiao Wu is a great work or not, but with the Silver Bear Award as a tiger skin, I don't have to pay taxes to brag a lot, and it makes Sakata An pay a little more happily. This diǎn is also a means of Ye Ming.
Sakata An came with a contract, this is the standard contract for the transfer of copyright of the film festival, the format specified by the organizing committee, divided into three parts, one for each party A and B, and one for the organizing committee for the record, of course, this is a precaution, and there will be no problems. If something goes wrong, the organizing committee will be a referee.
Of course, there has been no such thing as the organizing committee that needs to come forward.
After the Japanese left, the Koreans couldn't sit still, and the Koreans then rushed over, and a tall middle-aged man in his forties came over and said, "Mr. Luo Tian, I'm Park In-yong from Xijie Entertainment, and it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
Luo Tian has no resistance to Koreans, but his younger brother betrayed him and followed another boss, which made Luo Tian actually feel very unhappy. But this has nothing to do with doing business, and those who should make money still have to make money.
Koreans and Japanese are both extensions of Chinese civilization, although the two younger brothers have betrayed, and one has rebelled, but first keep accounts, record them in a small book, make money first, and then have the opportunity to settle accounts, after all, it is now peacetime.
Xijie Entertainment, one of the top three film and television companies in South Korea, may be officially the number one because Xijie Entertainment has an official background and is responsible for the overseas licensing and distribution of Korean films.
Therefore, this is a similar type to the company where our Huaxia Han Shanping Sanye is the general manager. Luo Tian will not have a grudge against money, so he also greeted him very politely.
Park In-yong was very surprised and said, "Is Mr. Luo Tian very interested in Korean?" It's very authentic, if I don't know Mr. Luo Tian, I really think that Mr. Luo Tian is Korean? ”
Later, several Koreans who came with Park In-yong also praised Luo Tian very well in speaking Korean. Koreans, it's this virtue, they can't see the good of others, others have a good diǎn degree, and they always say their own.
This diǎn, at this moment, is also the drenching of the expression.
Of course, Luo Tian didn't care, and it wasn't the first time these people had done this kind of thing.
But these people are also very stingy, buying out Xiao Wu's copyright in South Korea, and actually giving 100,000, is it negotiated with the Japanese?
Luo Tian continued: "Just now, the people from Tokyo Imaging came, and the price given was 300,000, you can go and verify it, therefore, I don't want anything else, 300,000, the copyright is given to you, we shot this movie, almost mobilized half of the local county's people, spent millions, you can't always make us lose money, right?" ”
The investment of 50,000 yuan, Luo Tian directly and unceremoniously said that it became an investment of millions, anyway, the Japanese and Koreans will not really go to Jia Zhangke's hometown to verify, and they are not afraid to go, that is Jia Zhangke's territory, and he will settle this matter. Besides, the contract is signed, you don't care how much money I shoot, and I won't refund the money to you. In the end, Park In-yong only bought out Xiao Wu's copyright in Japan at a price of 300,000.
At this time, Park In-yong is actually quite excited, 300,000, this is almost the price of Chinese cabbage, the price of 300,000, bought out the winning film of the Silver Bear Award, won't you make a lot of money worthy of the Silver Bear Award? In fact, this guy Sakata An also has the same thoughts.
But after the people from these two countries came, it was more tragic later, although there were a lot of people coming, but the transaction was very small.
This diǎn made Zhao Tao very angry: "These people, they all came to take a look, but there are not a few people who ask the price, what does this mean, isn't this bullying fever?" ”
At this moment, Jia Zhangke was surprisingly calm in his heart and said: "Zhao Tao, I am fortunate to have it, but I have lost my life, this movie has been able to win the Silver Bear Award, which is already quite a good thing." There is no need to force the rest, and besides, we haven't sold some of them, haven't Japan and South Korea already sold them? Although it was sold for more than 60,000 yuan, the cost of collecting the meeting was not only our expenses this time, but there was still a profit. ”
To be a person to know satisfaction, Jia Zhangke is the kind of person who is easy to satisfy, for example, this time, in fact, he can be nominated for the Berlin Film Festival, which is already quite a good thing for Jia Zhangke.
And being able to win the award makes Jia Zhangke even more overjoyed, besides, it is already 600,000 yuan, which can be described as making a lot of privileges, paying off all kinds of foreign debts, and there is no need to worry about the shooting cost of the next movie, which is very exciting.
