"Goddess Paris, please save the country."

On the lawn in front of the villa, a group of fans got down on one knee with feverish eyes, all focused on Paris.

The sun was shining, and the golden sun shone on Paris's body, like a holy angel, holy and noble.

Paris was stunned.

She didn't expect that this group of fans came all the way to her, not to ask her for an autograph, nor to meet an idol, but to ask her to go out of the mountain to save the country.

But the problem is, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with her, she's just an ordinary person, although she has the idea of running for president, but she doesn't really participate.

You actually asked me to save the country, isn't the joke a bit big?

But looking at the serious and serious expressions of this group of fans, Paris couldn't say anything, and a sense of mission surged in her heart, heavy.

Originally, she had the idea of running for president, but now she saw a group of fans running to support her and ask her to go out of the mountain.

Paris took a deep breath, a wave of emotion surged from her heart, and she nodded solemnly: "Okay." ”

"Oh."

A crowd of fans cheered.

In the villa, the elephant party representatives were stunned when they watched this scene.

On the lawn, a group of fans surrounded Paris with the moon, like soldiers surrounding the general, bees surrounding the queen, or the people supporting the leader

When the reporter saw this scene, a news headline quickly appeared in his mind.

"Paris the Great Man Returns to Save America."

On this day, Lin Ziyi made a phone call to Xu Nan.

"What's the matter, I heard that your talk with Netflix collapsed."

Xu Nan nodded: "Yes, the price they gave was too low, and it was a movie with a box office of more than 100 million, and Netflix only gave 8 million US dollars, which is too little." ”

Lin Ziyi persuaded: "Eight million dollars is actually a lot, the box office of your movie has just exceeded 100 million, and it is still a spoof film, and Netflix cannot give a high price." ”

Xu Nan retorted: "The account can't be calculated like this, although my movie is a spoof film, it is very popular on the Internet and has a lot of potential audiences." ”

"And Paris has been very popular on the Internet recently, I heard that she is going to run for president, if she really participates in the election, then netizens will not be interested in her movies?"

Lin Ziyi persuaded again: "The streaming media market in the United States is not like China, there are several playback software competitions, here, Netflix is the absolute leader, and the remaining competitors are Disney has a little strength, but it can't compare to Netflix." ”

"If you don't compromise and Netflix grits its its teeth and doesn't buy your movie, then you will lose a lot."

Xu Nan continued: "Anyway, I won't sell it at a low price. ”

Lin Ziyi said helplessly: "Okay, you can think about it yourself." ”

Soon, Lin Ziyi hung up the phone, and Xu Nan pondered.

The movie "Falling Cherry Blossom Axe Washington" has been released for more than a month, and now there are only more than 200 theaters that are still showing this movie, and the single-day box office is only less than 100,000 US dollars.

In this case, Xu Nan's eyes are naturally on the overseas box office, as well as streaming media rights and video tape rights.

Among them, there is no difficulty in overseas release, just rely on the channels of the Imperial Cinema Line to push it over one by one, and foreign countries are still quite interested in this kind of movie that spoofs the founding president of the United States.

But in selling streaming media rights, Xu Nan ran into trouble, because he did not negotiate the price with Netflix.

This is not the first time Xu Nan has negotiated a transaction with Netflix about streaming media rights, he has cooperated with Netflix several times before, such as "The Hobbit Era", "Atlantic Rim" The streaming rights of copycat films were all sold to Netflix, and Netflix also gave a good price, it can be said that everyone's cooperation was relatively pleasant before.

But this time something went wrong, Xu Nan made an original spoof film, with a box office of nearly 130 million, but Netflix was only willing to pay 8 million in copyright fees, which is a lot lower than under normal circumstances.

But Netflix also has a reason, they think that Xu Nan's movie is a spoof film, the quality is average, and it mainly depends on marketing to pull up the box office, and the audience may not like to watch it.

The price of eight million is still based on the good cooperation between Emperor Cinema and the past, otherwise they are only willing to pay six million.

Then the two sides froze, and they are still in a tug-of-war.

The point is that the situation in the United States is different from that in China.

There are several video websites in China, such as Penguin Video, Kiwi Video, Moon Video, etc., and the competition is very fierce.

Netflix is the dominant company in the United States, and this video playback software alone occupies 60% of the market share, and the rest of Disney videos and Apple videos add up to only 30%.

Therefore, Netflix is particularly strong in the United States, and it is not willing to accept negotiations at all, either agreeing to the price of eight million, or they will not buy it, and there is no second way to go.

"President, I'm back." Avi came to Xu Nan's office.

Xu Nan immediately asked, "How did you talk to the people from Netflix?" Are they willing to raise the purchase price? ”

Avi nodded: "They agreed to increase the price of acquiring the online broadcast rights of "Falling Sakura God Axe Washington". ”

Xu Nan smiled, and the people from Netflix finally got their hands on it.

"But they are only willing to raise the price by $500,000, that is, they are willing to pay $8.5 million to buy the online broadcast rights of "Falling Sakura God Axe Washington." Avi said.

Xu Nan was angry: "What are you kidding, the box office of our movie is close to 130 million US dollars, how can 8.5 million US dollars be enough, at least 10 million US dollars." ”

Avi looked embarrassed next to him.

He also felt that the acquisition price of Netflix was a bit low, this was the first film he led as a producer, and it was starring Paris, and the Internet popularity was so high, only 8.5 million US dollars, this price is really too low.

But there is no way, Netflix has always been very strong, even the three major theater chains, as well as the top Hollywood film and television companies, can't do anything with Netflix, because Netflix is the overlord of the media in the United States.

is just a Disney, because Netflix has repeatedly lowered the price of their film and television dramas, causing Disney to be angry and build a streaming media platform by itself to compete with Netflix.

However, Disney's streaming platform is still in a loss-making state, and the market size cannot be compared with Netflix.

Besides, Disney is the largest media group in the United States, and its subsidiaries are both theaters and film and television companies.

But Xu Nan can't do it, the streaming rights of "Falling Cherry Blossom God Axe Washington" must find a way to sell, and sell it when the popularity is at its highest, otherwise it will lose a lot of money.

Xu Nan felt very embarrassed.
