Chapter 265: Yang Lin's Decision

You must know that in the global animated film box office list, the highest-ranked animated film is "Frozen" released in 2013, with a total global box office of $1.2742 billion.

Below them are "Toy Story 3" at $1,063.2 million, "The Lion King" at $987.5 million, "Despicable Me 2" at $970.8 million, and "Finding Nemo" at $936.7 million.

Among them, "Frozen" and "Despicable Me 2" are both works in 2013, and from the production level alone, "The Return of the Great Sage" has completed these two movies. It stands to reason that overseas studios should have confidence in this film.

But the biggest problem with "The Return of the Great Sage" is that it is a Chinese-language movie.

After entering the 21st century, the only two successful Chinese films in Hollywood are Li Yu's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and Zhang Yimou's "Hero", both of which were made ten years ago.

Among them, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" grossed $128 million in North America, and "Hero" grossed $53.7 million in North America.

Since "Hero", no domestic film has been successful in Hollywood.

20th Century Fox's willingness to buy out the rights to "The Return of the Great Sage" in North America for $15 million meant that the film would have to make more than $45 million at the box office if it didn't lose money. So from a certain point of view, people have a high opinion of "The Return of the Great Sage".

But Yang Lin is not satisfied, he has been doing his best for more than half a month in "The Return of the Great Sage", and if he only earns 50 million US dollars in buyout fees (equivalent to 150 million US dollars at the box office) in the overseas market, it will be too insulting to the role of the matrix system.

But who calls Chinese movies not to be angry!

Fortunately, it was in the fax sent back by Gao Junru. In addition to the conditions for the buyout, those overseas filmmakers also put forward another option. That is to take the box office sharing route.

It's just that compared to the box office share of about 40% for domestic producers, these overseas distributors are only willing to provide about 20% of the box office share.

This share ratio is not high, not too high. But also within the normal range.

The box office share of Hollywood blockbusters imported by China is only about 25 percent, so this 20 percent share is not unacceptable.

Yang Lin thought for a moment, then turned his head to Bai Hua and said: "Xiaobai, you call back to Gao Junru immediately, when you negotiate with film companies in developed countries such as the United States, Japan, and Europe, take the route of dividing and negotiate buyouts with some developing countries." You can buy out, but there are one requirement for sharing, the sharing ratio cannot be less than 20%, and the film scheduling ratio on the first day of the movie release cannot be less than 15%, the higher the better! ”

"Okay, I got it!"

After Bai Hua left, Yang Lin went to the Matrix Technology Building again.

Among the four companies directly controlled by Matrix Holding Group, Matrix Electronics and Matrix Semiconductor will first move to Matrix Technology Building, and Matrix Electronics has completed all the relocation work. Matrix Digital and Matrix Film and Television will complete the relocation by the end of the year.

As for the F.M.G.A, a joint venture with Apple, Google, and Facebook, because it is not a holding company, and it is only a research and development center of F.M.G.A. in Jiangcheng. Yang Lin arranged this company near the matrix research institute under construction.

However, today I went to the Matrix Technology Building not to see the company's relocation, Cheng Haoqian called, saying that there were some new ideas on the MatrixII. mobile phone. I hope to have a good talk with Yang Lin.

Yang Lin happily accepted the invitation.

At present, the MatrixII. mobile phone is still in the design and development stage, according to Yang Lin's vision of launching a new mobile phone a year. The Matrix II will be available next year.

But the problem now is that Apple has launched IPHONE6 and IPHONE6PLUS that compete with it. Samsung, LG, Sony, Huawei, Xiaomi, Lenovo and other mobile phone manufacturers have also begun to build a new generation of artificial intelligence mobile phones on the basis of the MatrixOS operating system, and the future MatrixII. mobile phones will undoubtedly face great competitive pressure.

However, this is also a strategy of last resort.

Yang Lin through the MatrixOS operating system, the public authorization of the Mix instruction set and the public sale of the Moment Core No. 1, completely dismantled the original ARM camp, Apple and Google have given up their own operating systems, Qualcomm, MediaTek and other chip giants The stock price has fallen to the bottom, and today's mobile market is the world of MM.

But the negative effect of this is that the artificial intelligence mobile phone launched by Matrix Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. will face competition from global consumer electronics industry giants. Whether the MatrixII. mobile phone can be as successful as the MatrixI. mobile phone is still unknown, as the president of Matrix Electronics, Cheng Haoqian is under great pressure.

This is also the reason why he is looking for Yang Lin today.

However, from Yang Lin's point of view, he is not as interested in the MatrixII. mobile phone as before.

Today, the licensing fees for the MatrixOS and Mix instruction sets alone can generate billions of dollars in profits for Matrix Digital every year.

Not to mention some of the benefits on the matrix language and the matrix marketplace.

Therefore, if the MatrixII. mobile phone can achieve greater success, it will naturally be better, even if the performance is average, with the foundation laid by the MatrixI. mobile phone

In the long run, there are only five to ten years left in the glory days of smartphones, and when wearable electronic devices mature, smartphones will be phased out in minutes, just as PCs are now phased out by smartphones.

When Yang Lin arrived at the Matrix Technology Building, he went straight to the laboratory on the fifteenth floor of the Matrix Electronic Technology Company.

According to the original plan, the 60-storey Matrix Technology Building, the first to tenth floors will be allocated to Matrix Pictures, and the tenth to twentieth floors will be allocated to Matrix Electronics, of which the fifteenth to twentieth floors will be the laboratories of Matrix Electronics.

Matrix Semiconductor, Matrix Digital Software Technology Co., Ltd., and the parent company, Matrix Holding Group, also have 10 floors of office buildings and laboratories each.

The last 10 floors were allocated to the back-of-house department, which was mainly used for the construction of restaurants, hotels, supermarkets, cinemas, shopping malls, playgrounds, and even kindergartens.

You must know that the number of programmers in the entire company alone exceeds 15,000, and the total number of engineers in technical positions is 30,000.

These commercial establishments can meet all the consumption and entertainment needs of the company's tech nerds, and many goods can be redeemed with the welfare points issued by the company. (To be continued.) )
