Charles did not miss the appointment, and the next day, he took MGM's signing team to Linnan's residence, and after a day, MGM had also drafted a formal document.

The lack of competitive enemies did not allow MGM to deliberately use this to suppress the benefits that Lin Nan should get, Solan is not so stupid, if he really compresses the interests of Lin Nan's side, it is undoubtedly offending Lin Nan, maybe this movie will make MGM make a little more money, but after that, after Lin Nan's fame is hit, MGM will never get any chance to cooperate.

If you do too much of this kind of thing, when you have a problem, others will naturally fall into the trap.

Solan understands this very well, so the conditions offered to Lin Nan can be said to be the most normal in the industry, so that MGM can get the maximum benefit on the premise of ensuring that Lin Nan does not dislike MGM.

Naturally, Wei Junbo has to talk about this kind of thing, firstly, Lin Nan is indeed not good at this area, although he has also known some of these things over the years, but it is naturally not good to say that he is proficient, let alone compared with Wei Junbo; Second, Lin Nan can't understand or understand English at all, what are you talking about?

After handing over this matter to Wei Junbo, Lin Nan, who was in a good mood, walked out of the hotel accompanied by the staff of Nanshan Film and Television Company, who was both a translator and a bodyguard, and used it for two purposes.

After coming to the United States for so long, this is the first time that Lin Nan has wandered around an American city with nothing to do and no purpose at all.

Every time he goes to a new city, Lin Nan likes to go around that city without purpose, in Huaxia, he has already traveled through many cities, but outside of Huaxia, this is the first time.

The architectural style and the street that is not lively reflect the cultural landscape here that is completely different from that of China, and Lin Nan suddenly began to understand why Chinese movies have never been able to go abroad, it is not a problem of movies, but a problem of culture.

In Europe and the United States. Except that the colonizer is the colonized, there is basically no big difference in the culture, but China is different, and China preserves the traditional culture and customs that have been passed down from generation to generation since ancient times. These things are not superior or inferior to European and American cultures, but they have strong specificity and independence, which is why Chinese films cannot be sold abroad.

The huge difference in culture makes many movie foreigners can't understand it at all, let alone the box office, they can't understand what the movie wants to express, and they can't get any happy feeling in the process of watching the movie, while the Chinese people are different, a major feature of Chinese culture is the strong integration.

The Chinese seem to have always been adept at accepting other cultures and then assimilating into their own, and it is clear that a large part of the population has embraced Western culture today. Western culture has also begun to integrate into all aspects of Chinese life.

But unlike ancient times, ancient cultural integration is mutual integration, and the end result is that our culture dominates and integrates others; And now we are merging others alone, and the final result of this can only be assimilation by others. This is also the reason why the national government cares so much about Chinese movies.

The death of culture is equal to the decline of the nation, this is something that no one wants to see, in today's environment, film and television dramas and other literary and artistic works are the best way to spread culture, the reason why the state vigorously supports the development of cultural enterprises is here, rushing out of the country do not make a plan, but at least to resist the invasion of foreign culture!

When many pioneers were defeated in the sand. Everyone has seen the status quo clearly, or to keep our own one-third of an acre of land first, and then talk about cultural export.

Shrinking is not necessarily bad, but it is one of the best ways to do it today.

And the reason why Lin Nan dared to shoot a movie specifically aimed at the European and American markets at such a time is that he has a certain degree of confidence and confidence. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to do this, otherwise he would not only lose all his money, but also add another humiliating sum to the record of Chinese films.

Lin Nan's self-confidence comes from the search engine in his head, from the countless classics that have been tested by the market in the previous world, and he repairs and adapts those classics to a certain extent to make them more suitable for this world, so that the results obtained will not be better than those of another world, but they will never be worse.

This is to stand on the shoulders of giants. You may not be taller than a giant when you jump, but you can't be shorter than you are.

Lin Nan doesn't dare to say what kind of achievements "Chainsaw" can achieve, but as long as he can have another one-third of the results, it will be his own success, to paraphrase: This is a small step for Lin Nan, but it is a big step for Chinese movies!

Huaxia's movies finally have a money-making precedent under many precedents of losing money, even if it only makes a dollar, it is a kind of progress.

By the time I walked around and returned to the hotel, the signing team sent by MGM had already left.

When Wei Junbo saw Lin Nan come back, he also hurriedly told Lin Nan the result of the contract negotiation: MGM was responsible for the distribution and promotion of "Saw" in Europe and the United States (the funds spent were deducted from the profits), and MGM obtained all the agency rights of "Saw Horror" in Europe and the United States, including film distribution, DVD distribution and online sales; Correspondingly, Nanshan Film and Television Company can get 70% of the net profit after deducting all expenses, while MGM, as the distribution company, only gets 30%.

Of course, the rules and regulations of the real contract are very detailed, Lin Nan can probably guess just by looking at the dozens of pages of paper, Wei Junbo and himself are only summarizing the most critical parts that he needs to know.

Lin Nan is still very satisfied with this condition, he and Wei Junbo are very clear about the predicament they are facing now, they thought that MGM would take advantage of the fire to rob and squeeze part of the profits that should belong to Nanshan Film and Television Company, but what they didn't expect was that MGM was so generous and gave himself 70% directly according to the normal level, which also made Lin Nan have a good impression of MGM.

In addition to these, Wei Junbo also mentioned that MGM has a condition, that is, after the opening animation of Nanshan Film and Television Company is over, MGM's opening animation must be added.

Lin Nan smiled slightly after hearing it, he clearly knew what kind of problem MGM was facing now, it seems that MGM also attaches great importance to this film, hoping to add a little fame to MGM under the name of MGM, the reason for this Lin Nan is not very clear, maybe to win back some fans, maybe to be able to sell himself at a good price in the near future!

After the discussion with Lin Nan ended, MGM immediately began to contact the theater chain to carry out publicity.

The connection between the theater chain is very simple, MGM is equivalent to the five giants of China in Europe and the United States, and has full energy in this regard, although it is not very favored by the theater side because it is a Chinese movie, but with the high support and nominal guarantee of MGM, "Chainsaw" still got nearly 4,000 big screens!

You must know that when "People Are Embarrassed" was released, there were not so many screens, of course, it was also because there were only 10,000 big screens in China at that time, and there were more than 40,000 big screens in North America and the United States alone, with a large base, so "Chainsaw" got more screens.

At the same time as negotiating with the theater party, MGM also launched the promotion of the movie, MGM originally wanted to directly use his huge influence in the circle as a backing to promote the movie, but was vetoed by Lin Nan, and at the same time Lin Nan proposed a better publicity method, MGM's president Solan applauded when he heard it, and directly adopted Lin Nan's proposal.

On March 27, 2006, many Americans will never forget such a day.

In the bustling streets of the United States, there are countless large screens hanging on various buildings, and at noon on this day, a total of more than 400 large screens playing various contents in various cities in the United States suddenly went black at the same time, which naturally attracted the attention of countless passers-by.

After two or three seconds of darkness and successfully attracting the attention of all passers-by, the giant TV screen suddenly flashed, and then a picture appeared that shocked everyone.

A young woman is tied to a chair with a strange metal utensil on her head, with only the top half of her face leaking out.

The woman who was originally unconscious woke up and found that her current state began to struggle violently, but she could not break free from the restraints, and the metal object on her head was also very strange.

"My God, what is this, has anyone been kidnapped?" A middle-aged woman covered her mouth and called out in surprise.

"How is it possible, it must be a prank!" A balding man next to the middle-aged woman patted the woman's shoulder and comforted her.

"How could she suddenly play such a thing, the equipment she was carrying on her head always looked very dangerous!" A young boy said to the girl next to him, "Let's go, Jeff and they can't wait!" ”

But the girl shook off the boy's hand and stared at the big screen with a pair of eyes: "Wait, Cell, watch it with me, don't you want to know what happened behind it?" ”

……

Under more than 400 giant screens scattered across the country, countless people began to discuss the sudden appearance of a woman tied to a chair and wearing a strange device.

At this moment, the scene shifted from the struggling woman to a small lit TV on the side.

After a burst of snowflakes, a picture finally appeared on the small TV, and in the picture was a wooden puppet that gave people a very strange feeling, at this time, the puppet was slowly turning its head to the camera.

And this puppet, in the future, will also become a legend in the horror thriller movie industry, because he represents a person who makes everyone feared - Jiansaw!
