Text Chapter 307, a highly profitable horror film

"The company's current prospects are very good, since the boss has set the general direction of the company's operation to focus on the horror film market, there are many directors who are good at shooting horror films to contact us.

In the past, their films were not recognized by the mainstream Hollywood society, no one invested, and if they invested themselves, they couldn't even raise funds to make movies, so that many people had to take on other movies as bargaining chips in order to make their favorite films.

Jessica crossed one beautiful leg, lit a cigarette for herself, and took a deep puff, leaving a fiery lip print on the mouthpiece.

"Ahem!" Lei Weidong touched his nose meaningfully and motioned to open the window.

"I'm sorry! Boss! Seeing that the boss didn't like to smoke herself, Jessica quickly put out the cigarette, stood up and opened the window.

"It's okay! You continue! Lei Weidong waved his hand and motioned for Jessica to continue.

"And now with our MSI Film Company, which specializes in the horror film market, although the movies they make are still not recognized by the mainstream, they have finally found an organization, and someone is willing to invest in them, although our requirements are more demanding, but as long as someone invests, they can not only make more money than before! You can also make a name for yourself! Jessica laughed:

"Boss, don't you know, many small film companies are also imitating us to invest in horror movies, which proves that horror films are actually very marketable in North America. It's just that in the past, their positioning was inaccurate and they refused to invest money, which led to shoddy films, so that everyone didn't like this genre.

Now that the positioning is accurate, and there is a group of niche audiences who particularly like this genre, our MSI company has recently risen rapidly in the ranking of the Hollywood industry. If only there were a few more movies that supported the scenes, maybe our company would be able to rank in the middle and upper reaches of Hollywood. When Jessica talked about the company, she immediately became a strong business woman.

"So what's the biggest difficulty for MSI movies right now! Compared to the big Hollywood companies, what are our weaknesses! Now that Jessica has entered the state, Lei Weidong certainly wants to understand the situation in Hollywood in more detail.

"There are two biggest weaknesses of the company right now!" Jessica apparently had a clear understanding of the company's situation and a clear understanding of the potential crisis.

"Those two weaknesses?" Lei Weidong asked.

"The first is that our distribution ability is still very weak, and the second is that the sales channels around the film are relatively narrow, resulting in fewer profit points for us." Jessica had a dry look in her eyes as she spoke.

"Our MSI distribution channels in North America are mainly the legacy left by the previous Giant Lion Company, and with the cooperation with National Entertainment, it has developed through the popularity of "Moonlight Panic".

However, due to the short time, the channel of issuance is still very unstable. A lot of theaters signed temporary contracts with us, which didn't solidify. Even the original old cooperative cinema chain thinks that we have hit a big luck this time, and we have not fundamentally reversed the negative impact left before.

There is also a large blind spot in the company's issuance scope.

At present, although the company's distribution theater basically involves the whole of North America, we have not yet fully entered the most prosperous eastern regions of the United States, especially some large cities, which are still monopolized by the eight major film companies.

In addition, we have a global distribution, but we are still in a blank area for distribution in Europe, Japan, South America, Australia, and other regions. If we also have a cooperative theater there, I believe that the overseas box office of "Moonlight Panic" will not be only that.

As for the peripheral sales channels, the same is true, because the company has never carried out peripheral distribution before, so this area can be said to be blank, even if we have worked hard to expand the channel in the past few months, but it is much worse than those old film companies. ”

"That's right!" Lei Weidong is very pleased that Jessica is not confused by the popularity in front of him, if this achievement is complacent, Lei Weidong will have to consider changing the general manager of the company.

"The sales channels around the movie can be developed in cooperation with Xiaomi Comics, although Xiaomi Comics has not been in the U.S. market for a long time, and the surrounding channels are not very stable, but if the two companies cooperate, they can complement each other in many places, and the market development can be faster.

And Zi Hanyan, the general manager of Xiaomi Comics, is also a strong woman, I believe there will be a lot of topics between you.

"Understood, boss, I've heard of Mr. Zi of Xiaomi Comics a few times, and I believe that the cooperation will be pleasant." Lei Weidong proposed to cooperate with Xiaomi Comics, Jessica is not dissatisfied, as the general manager of the company, Jessica also has a certain understanding of Lei Weidong, and knows that Xiaomi Comics Company is also Lei Weidong's industry, since the two companies are the same boss, cooperation is normal.

"As for the issue of distribution, now I am the second largest shareholder of National Entertainment, and I will increase cooperation with National Entertainment in the future, as for the blank area, and overseas distribution, it depends on Jessica's ability, and the company will fully support you in this regard!"

"I don't know how the company supports it!" Jessica asked.

"Financial support is on the one hand, on the other hand, whether the channel distribution is good or not, the key is whether there are good movies! If there is a good movie, overseas studios will come to the door themselves, so what movies are Jessica making in the company now! "Lei Weidong hasn't been to the company for a while, and he doesn't know much about some of the movies shot by the company.

Now his main career is Lei Weidong in Hong Kong, and he is not in the United States for at least half of the year, if Lei Weidong needs to personally inquire about every movie of MSI, it is strange if he is not tired to death, so Lei Weidong also pays attention to those big investments, or more famous movies.

For those small-budget movies that invest hundreds of thousands, they are directly decentralized, which also leads to a lot of unspoken rules in these small-budget movies, sofa auditions.

If nothing else, let's just say that Li Mingyu, who used to be a translator for himself, according to the grapevine, he has recently unsubtly ruled several Hollywood beauties, which is also the benefit he has as a producer. For these things that you and I are willing to, as long as it does not violate the interests of the company, Lei Weidong will go with the flow, and now the Hollywood environment is like this, not that Lei Weidong can change.

"The company now shoots two horror movies, one is "Mysterious Eye", and it is John Brown. Carpenter's horror film written and directed by Owen Kershner, because of the success of "Moonlight Panic" I agreed with Han. Carpenter's request. ”

"You're doing a great job!" Lei Weidong nodded and agreed with Jessica's approach.

You must know that a "Moonlight Panic" made the company earn tens of millions, and took out hundreds of thousands to support John. Carpenter is also as it should be, and John. Carpenter later became known as the master of horror films, but he made a lot of money-making films, and a good relationship with him was beneficial to the development of MSI.

"The other is "Ghost Street", which was selected by Jenny and Li Mingyu among those submitted scripts, I looked at it at the time and felt that it had great potential, and the investment was not high, so I made the main shooting, as for "Friday the 13th", it has been completed and is ready to be released on Halloween."

After Jessica finished speaking, she picked up a document from the table next to her and handed it to Lei Weidong: "This is the detailed release plan of these three movies, boss, take a look at what needs to be changed!" ”

"Don't look at it, you can decide for yourself!"

"Ghost Street" is one of the three classic horror films in Hollywood in the 20th century, Lei Weidong is very excited to get it, which means that at least hundreds of millions of dollars in profits have changed hands, and now the three classic horror films of the 20th century are in the hands of Lei Weidong, so Lei Weidong can lay out the horror universe in advance and intersperse the protagonists in horror films.

Just like the Marvel Universe, even if you only do the third layer of Marvel, you will make more money than you can count.

The good operation of MSI can be seen that Jessica has worked hard during this time, although Jessica didn't say anything, but Lei Weidong can see that Jessica, this woman, must have been very hard in the past few months, and she has lost a lot of weight than the last time she met, of course, Europeans and Americans are more plump, even if they lose some weight, they are much better than many oriental beauties.

"Lei Shao, just relying on the company's current low-cost horror movies, it is impossible to open the overseas market, and the company must make some big productions!" Jessica looked at Lei Weidong pitifully with a pair of big blue eyes, as if she was very complaining about Lei Weidong's lack of investment in big productions.

"Alright, Jessica, how old are you, and you still pretend to be pathetic like a teenage sister-in-law!" Looking at Jessica's appearance, Lei Weidong joked: "The company has invested in a big production, which was invested a year ago, and the director is Steven. Spielberg, the producer is George. Lucas, who is expected to finish early next year, can catch up with next year's summer schedule. ”

"Really? Boss, I love you so much! Jessica immediately pounced on Lei Weidong and sent a hot kiss.

American women dare to love and hate, hearing that Lei Weidong had prepared such a big production in advance, Jessica was so excited that she was wet.

"Jessica! It's still working time, so we'll talk about the rest after work! ”

was raided by Jessica, Lei Weidong was also a little surprised, but Lei Weidong is not a junior brother, you must know that he is almost forty years old in his previous life, and he has never seen anything. When Jessica threw herself into her arms, her hands involuntarily held Jessica's vital part and stroked it, and the foreign girl's breasts were bigger, much larger than Xiaoling's.

"Yes! Boss, you say so, but your hands and body don't lie! Lei Weidong's touch made Jessica enjoy it very much, so Jessica was not idle, and directly reached in and grabbed Lei Weidong's vital point.
