His plan was exposed, and Xu Nan didn't have any embarrassed expression.

He is used to being scolded in China, and his cheekiness has long been practiced.

This is originally a yang conspiracy, as long as the people of the United States have seen it once, they will be able to figure it out immediately.

It's just that the first time can have the greatest effect, so Xu Nan doesn't want to make it known before the release.

In fact, he didn't look for Lin Ziyi and also had this idea, just because he was worried about being discovered by her.

According to domestic experience, when copycat films are released for the first time, the audience is the most likely to be fooled, and the box office that can be stolen is also the most.

The second time it was released, it didn't have much effect.

But since it was discovered by Lin Ziyi, it doesn't matter, it's just to make less money.

Xu Nan said lightly: "Yes, I just have this idea, there are no people in the United States who shoot copycats and touch porcelain pieces, so I want to grab this market." ”

"You're honest enough." Lin Ziyi took a sip of coffee: "You're not afraid that I will let people ban this movie, so that your movie can't be released in theaters." ”

"Don't be afraid." Xu Nan was very calm: "The big deal is not to release it in theaters, directly distribute the videotape, and then sell the network copyright." ”

"At most, you will block me in the theater, and you will block me to facilitate my publicity."

Lin Ziyi couldn't help but laugh.

This is the good thing about copycat porcelain pieces, like kraft candy, the more fanfare you make, the easier it is to heat up the movie.

The best way is to treat this movie coldly, so that this movie will not be a little hot.

Seeing that she couldn't scare Xu Nan, Lin Ziyi didn't want to waste time.

"Let's be straight, I invited you here because I want your movie to be released in my theaters."

"And I can guarantee that its theaters will give you a good film schedule, and ensure that your movie will not be low at the box office."

"Why?" Xu Nan asked rhetorically: "Why are you willing to release it knowing that my movie is a copycat, my movie will have an impact on "The Hobbit". ”

Obviously, Emperor Cinemas has a certain share in the movie "The Hobbit", and letting the "Hobbit" era be released will definitely affect the box office of "The Hobbit", which is equivalent to affecting the interests of Emperor Cinemas itself.

Why did Lin Ziyi do this, is it because the two of them are fellow countrymen?

It is unlikely, even if it is a fellow countryman, it is impossible for Lin Ziyi to harm herself and others, there must be a deeper reason for this.

"I don't want to hide it from you, let's be honest, the movie "The Hobbit", we don't have a share in the theater chain." Lin Ziyi said: "Therefore, letting your copycat film be released in our theaters has little impact." ”

Imperial Cinemas doesn't have a share in the blockbuster "The Hobbit"?

Xu Nan's first reaction was unlikely, the Emperor Cinema Line is one of the three major cinema chains in the United States, and the hobbits don't give the Emperor Cinema a share, so they are not afraid to wear small shoes and be secretly rubbed by the cinema to lower the film schedule.

This is equivalent to injuring 1,000 enemies and 800 self-losses, and the producers of "The Hobbit" can't be so stupid.

But seeing Lin Ziyi's solemn expression, Xu Nan realized that what she said was true.

"Why?" Xu Nan asked: "I feel that this is not in line with the laws of business. ”

Lin Ziyi picked up the spoon again and stirred the coffee: "Maybe it's because Shenhua has just acquired the relationship with the Imperial Cinema Line, you know, newcomers are always easy to bully the old people in the circle." ”

"I see." Xu Nan suddenly realized.

No wonder Lin Ziyi took the initiative to come to him and wanted "The Hobbit Era" to be released in the Imperial Theater, but it turned out that he was excluded.

Since "The Hobbit" is unwilling to give a share, it will have no effect on them to let the copycat film be released, in this case, why not let it go.

As long as you can make money, it doesn't matter what movie you are on.

"The Hobbit Era" was released, but the loss was "The Hobbit", and it was not my imperial theater.

That's probably why.

It is impossible for Xu Nan to say that he is unhappy, this is equivalent to pie from the sky, and it solves his biggest problem at once.

There are more than 1,000 theaters under the Imperial Cinema Line, accounting for almost 25% of the market share.

Such a large theater chain is willing to release his movie, which will definitely bring a lot of box office to the movie, and the movie will make money almost certainly.

"No problem, I agreed to let 'The Hobbit Era' be released in Emperor Theaters." Xu Nan said decisively.

There was no reason why he shouldn't agree to such a good thing.

Lin Ziyi laughed: "Don't worry, I also have conditions." ”

She said directly: "I'm going to buy out your movie." ”

"It can't be." Xu Nan flatly refused.

What are you kidding, how could he let Lin Ziyi buy out his movie, the movie was bought out, which means that it has nothing to do with him, so what is the purpose of making the movie for so long.

Lin Ziyi didn't seem surprised: "If you don't buy out, the box office share of the release will have to be discussed carefully, and I will also take the risk of releasing your copycat porcelain film, and I can't help but make money." ”

"How much do you want?" Xu Nan asked.

"Eighty percent." Lin Ziyi said calmly.

"it!" Xu Nan couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.

Nima actually wants 80% of the share, which is too dark.

The theater chain here in the United States is relatively strong, and the theater plus the theater chain can get about 58% of the box office share, and you can get a certain rebate from time to time.

As a result, Lin Ziyi opened her mouth widely, and she asked for 80% when she came up, which was completely blackmail.

"This is your attitude towards doing business, if you share this share, my movie is not equal to being shot for nothing, so I just give you the movie." Xu Nan said angrily.

"So, it's better to buy out, so you don't have to worry about it." Lin Ziyi said casually.

Xu Nan understood, Lin Ziyi is a very shrewd businessman, and it is impossible to negotiate business with her without paying benefits that satisfy her.

"It is impossible to buy out, and it is also impossible to share 80 percent." Xu Nan simply put out his bottom line: "Your two conditions are too much, I don't want you to give you a discount, just according to market practice, I will give you a 58% box office share, if the box office exceeds 100 million US dollars, I can give you a 2% box office rebate." ”

"Do you think your movie could grossing more than 10 million?" Lin Ziyi couldn't help laughing: "You painted this cake too big, I can't swallow it." ”

"How can't it be." Xu Nan deliberately said: "I am a billion-dollar director, "The Hobbit Era" is my first work in the United States, with infinite potential, I am confident that the box office will exceed 200 million US dollars." ”

"Poof."

Lin Ziyi couldn't help laughing, and the flowers trembled.

"No wonder my sister was fooled so badly by you, you really dare to blow it, a bad porcelain movie can be said to be worth 200 million US dollars."
