Chapter 82: DC is shocked

Zhao Pulin quickly understood, but turned his head to Li Zeying beside him and smiled and said: "Mr. Li is my good friend, the two of us hit it off at first sight, and his thoughts also represent my thoughts." ”

Jeffrey listened and smiled meaningfully.

Li Zeying listened to Zhao Pulin's reply with satisfaction, and looked at this slippery guy, he spread his hands and said, "Brother Zhao, it seems that people don't think so, let's go home." ”

Jeffrey hurriedly stopped and said, "Don't worry, our company has been in some trouble lately, but I don't know how valuable your proposal is?" ”

"It's very simple, Sihai Sales and I are willing to invest 30 million each to support Warner Pictures to shoot DC's superhero movies, on the condition that the agency outside of North America is transferred to us."

"In addition to the additional $20 million we will invest every year, your company already enjoys a 20% share of the box office." Li Zeying sold a pass here and said, "But don't think it's reduced!" If we release it, the box office will definitely skyrocket a lot, too much to say, and it will not be a problem to double the number before. ”

Jeffrey laughed a little when he heard him talk so much.

Li Zeying watched his breath, and could see that this product was a little moody, and his IQ was quite high.

But you play pretending to be B, right, I'll let you play yourself to death first, and sure enough, Jeffrey was still unmoved and said, "That's it, the proposal of the two is really attractive, we need time to think about it." Otherwise, that's all for today. ”

Li Zeying is not surprised that he has a pig teammate like Warner, and it is not surprising that his Justice League can't get it.

He and Zhao Pulin left the Warner headquarters and joked: "It seems that it is a trip for nothing, Brother Zhao should not be too anxious!" ”

Zhao Pulin smiled very gentlemanly and said, "It's nothing, everything is difficult at the beginning, let's find another way." ”

As he spoke, the mobile phone rang, and it seemed that a text message came, and Zhao Pulin looked at it and excused himself to leave first and left.

Li Zeying looked at his back, and doubts naturally rose in his heart, he still couldn't completely rest assured of Zhao Pulin.

Moreover, Jeffrey's attitude gave him new ideas.

Maybe this time, they should go directly to DC and talk to them, after all, Warner Pictures has a limited number of copyrights in their hands, and they are not as cooperative as Marvel and Paramount.

If you bypass Warner and go directly to talk to DC, you may have unexpected gains.

Although DC's head office has now been acquired by Warner and become a subsidiary under its name, with Li Zeying's current ability, it is completely possible to engage in an acquisition station.

If you can't play Warner, let Ben Shao get it over and play casually, Li Zeying is a lucky person, move the gold finger casually, and don't let DC's comics sell well.

It is said that when he really contacted the other party's boss, he obviously knew that Li Zeying had gone to the head office to talk about investment.

When the two sides met, they seemed to be secretive, and the position of DC Comics at this time was very awkward.

On the one hand, they have to rely on the big tree of Warner, and their wealth and strength are good to enjoy the shade, but on the other hand, Warner's various policies have restricted their development and freedom.

For example, DC's popular character, the former superhero superhero Superman Clark, is now hopeless to turn over.

The new movie version was made before, and the film reviews were average, so that the reboot lagged behind 13 years later.

As for the master's side, he also experienced the failure of "Batman and Robin", and then was reborn through "Time to Go to War".

DC really needs a few classics to recapture the film market.

Li Zeying's appearance can be regarded as a kind of hope for them.

However, Warner will not agree so easily, as the head of the company, Paul Rivaz, said to Li Zeying very embarrassed: "We are very grateful for Mr. Li's intention, but now DC Comics and Warner head office are one, but I am afraid that it is inconvenient to act alone." ”

"Really?" Li Zeying was not in a hurry to express her position, but walked around the other party's office, and suddenly asked, "Has your company made any big moves recently?" Is it time to change the old comic world? ”

"Oh! Mr. Li also has an idea for our comics? Paul asked, surprised.

In fact, Li Zeying is really not a comic book fan, he prefers animation rather than live-action movies.

For American comics, Li Zeying has learned a little, and he knows that in the next few years, DC will undergo a reboot, set a new world view, and name it the new 52.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he began to dance again, saying: "Actually, I think a timely restart may be a good thing to regulate the timeline." You know that after a long time, there will inevitably be traditions and stiff places, and it is good to sort it out, and you can also catch up with the trend. ”

This idea can be said to be in line with the plan of DC's top management at the moment, and then Li Zeying said even more surprised: "I remember that your company's "Superman Prequel" has been broadcast for several seasons, right? In fact, it is also a good choice to test the waters on TV series, if you put aside the movie, what if you just unilaterally cooperate with animation and TV? Is there anything to talk about? ”

In a few words, Li Zeying grasped the other party's mind and began to dig into the corner of Warner.

You must know that one of Marvel's usual tricks is to promote movies and use animated TV to advertise.

For example, before the Avengers movie was released, there was the animation "The Strongest Hero Group in History", and before the Spider-Man reboot, the animation "Ultimate Spider-Man" was broadcast, and even DC also broadcast "Young Justice League", as well as animations such as Green Lantern and Batman.

If you can dig deep in this regard, it can bring a lot of popularity.

It's just that it takes a lot of money and luck.

Many superhero animations are relatively short-lived, often ending in a season or two, and it is not easy to make a hit animation.

Li Zeying spoke a few times, coupled with his grasp of Paul's luck, he was about to move the person in charge.

Who knows, the mobile phone sent a message, which was sent to him by the old man, saying that he had monitored Zhao Pulin was in contact with Warner's senior management, and he didn't know what he was talking about?

In fact, Li Zeying was not surprised by this, he had seen Zhao Pulin receive a text message before, and he suspected that Jeffrey had secretly contacted the other party.

But it doesn't matter, the Eight Immortals have crossed the sea, let's show our own powers, but Li Zeying is sure to convince DC Comics.

Then he almost flickered, and even used hypnosis, and Paul was really moved.

After all, it is impossible to invest in Warner, and there is no need for DC to refuse, so when asked about the specific amount, Li Zeying put it on the score.

"I was supposed to invest $30 million in Warner, but if I don't need it now, I can invest it all here."

"And ......," Paul didn't wait for his eyes to drop, he continued, "This amount was originally proposed on the basis of one and a half in cooperation with Zhao Pulin, and if I invested it unilaterally, I hope to increase it to 50 million US dollars, and then add 20 million a year." ”

"This ......" Paul was shocked, and he felt the need to hold a meeting behind closed doors.
