Chapter 415: Netflix's Oppression

Avi soon came back and brought the latest news, Netflix said that the price of $7 million is the final price, and it will definitely not be increased.

Obviously, Xu Nan's contact with Disney made Netflix angry, so Netflix decided to give Xu Nan a warning.

The monopoly group is so domineering, Xu Nan has no ability to resist at all.

But he is really unwilling, this is his first original work in the United States, with a box office of more than 100 million, if he sells the streaming rights to Netflix for 7 million, it is completely a cheap price of gold and cabbage.

Of course, this movie is gold in Xu Nan's eyes, and it is just so-so in the eyes of others, after all, it is just a spoof film, Netflix has a price of seven million, which is already very face-saving, just a small warning.

Netflix felt that this warning should be enough for Xu Nan to recognize the reality and obediently sell them the copyright of "Falling Sakura God Axe Washington".

Don't look at Xu Nan making trouble in the entertainment industry in the United States, but it's not enough to see it in front of Netflix.

Mainly because Netflix is too strong in the streaming field, one is dominant, and there is not even an opponent that can be counterbalanced, so they dare to do this.

There is also Xu Nan's behavior of contacting Disney that has aroused Netflix's vigilance.

Although Disney's market share is less than 20 percent and its strength is less than one-third of Netflix's, Netflix still attaches great importance to this rival.

Because, Disney is not only the largest film and television company in the entertainment industry, but also the largest cinema chain in the United States, the first brokerage company, and the absolute overlord of the entertainment industry.

Although Netflix has crushed Disney with its first-mover advantage, they have always been wary of this company.

Every year, Disney shoots a lot of popular film and television dramas, and the online broadcast rights of these film and television dramas will undoubtedly enter Disney's video website, and there are many popular movies, and the first priority is also Disney's video website.

Disney's foundation is too strong, even if it enters the industry, it still poses a great threat to Netflix.

Therefore, as soon as Xu Nan contacted Disney, he was immediately warned by Netflix.

They are not only warning Xu Nan, but also other people in the entertainment industry.

If you want to shop around, let's see Xu Nan's fate first.

And Netflix also has this confidence, with a market share of 60% and a huge amount of money obtained after several financings, so that they have no opponents in the streaming media field, even if it is the three major theater chains, they have to bow to them.

Netflix Group.

"Did the Huaxia director sign the contract?"

"Not yet."

"Twenty-four hours is almost up, doesn't he want to sell?"

"It's going to sell, now he's just not reconciled."

"That's right, he has no choice but to use us Netflix."

"If he doesn't agree to sign the contract within 24 hours, we will continue to lower the purchase price, and he will not be able to hold on."

The people at Netflix are very confident, waiting for Xu Nan to bow his head and give in.

However, to their surprise, twenty-four hours later, Xu Nan still did not sign a contract with Netflix, and agreed to sell the online broadcast rights of "Falling Cherry Blossom God Axe Washington" to Netflix.

All of a sudden, Netflix is really popular.

"That Huaxia director hasn't signed a contract yet?"

"It seems so."

"Anthony, what's the matter, didn't you promise me that Director Huaxia would definitely compromise?"

"He may not be satisfied with the price and wants to increase it a little, so he deliberately delays the time."

"The price of seven million is not satisfied, how high does he want to sell a spoof movie."

"We must not raise the price, since he contacted Disney, then we must not raise the price, we have to let everyone in the circle know that trying to use Disney and pressure us is a wrong act, and there will be extremely serious consequences."

"But Xu has no idea of selling the right to play movies for the time being, and we can't force him to sign it."

"Who says you can't?"

"What do you mean?"

"Contact AMC Cinemas."

There are three major cinema chains in the United States, and there is both competition and cooperation between them, but strictly speaking, the meaning of competition is stronger, and cooperation is only a few.

Disney has built a video platform and put its company's film and television dramas on the video platform to play, AMC and Emperor Cinema Line do not have a video platform, so of course their film and television dramas are unlikely to be broadcast on Disney's video software, otherwise they will be tantamount to an enemy.

The film and television dramas of the two theater companies are basically broadcast on Netflix, and Netflix has reached a good relationship with these two theater chains.

"President, the manager of AMC Cinemas just informed me that he was going to take our movie off the shelves." Avi walked into the office and told Xu Nan bad news.

Xu Nan frowned: "Why! What is their rationale? ”

Avi's face was ugly: "They said it was because they wanted to make room for other popular movies." ”

Xu Nan smiled angrily: "It's the off-season, there are no popular movies released at all, and our movies only occupy a few screens, how much space can be freed up for the next screening." ”

It has been a long time since "Falling Cherry Blossom Axe Washington" was released, and there are less than 200 theaters left to show it, and the film schedule can also be said to be negligible and completely dispensable.

AMC Cinemas used the excuse of making room for other popular movies to release this movie, which is as outrageous as a blind man who says he bought a TV to watch a show.

Avi smiled bitterly: "President, I heard rumors in the circle, this is because of Netflix, Netflix wants to force us to sell them the online broadcast rights of the movie "Falling Cherry Blossom Axe Washington" at a low price, so I contacted AMC Cinemas and put pressure on us by releasing the next movie. ”

"The Netflix manager I contacted before just called me and said that after their company's discussion, the online broadcast rights of the movie "Falling Sakura God Axe Washington" are only worth 6.5 million US dollars."

Xu Nan was very angry: "Damn Netflix, it's too much of a deception." ”

In fact, the release of the movie by AMC will not cause any loss to Xu Nan, after all, this movie can't earn tens of thousands of box office a day now.

But this kind of situation where you can only be beaten and can't fight back makes people very angry.

Netflix quickly spread the relevant news.

"Have you heard, Director Huaxia and Netflix had a falling out, because of the price of the online broadcast rights of the movie "Falling Cherry Blossom God Axe Washington".

"What are you kidding, who has the ability to compete with Netflix, and Xu Nan is not from the Imperial Cinema Line, Netflix should not lower the price."

"I heard that it was because Xu Nan contacted Disney and angered Netflix."

"So that's the case, it seems that Xu Nan is going to be unlucky this time."

"That's right, in the field of streaming, no one is disobedient to Netflix, not even theaters."

There are three theaters in the United States, but the streaming platform is only dominated by Netflix, and although Disney has a video platform, it is not Netflix's opponent. ”

"He deserves it, this Huaxia director is too arrogant, and someone can finally cure him."

"I really think that the entertainment industry is left to him, and some people can cure him."

The industry is generally not very optimistic about Xu Nan, there is no way, Netflix is too strong in the field of streaming media, and the three major theater chains can only bow their heads.

Xu Nan is determined to lose this loss.

Hearing the news, director Cameron felt as comfortable as eating a cold drink in the summer.

Although I know that it will not have much impact on Xu Nan, I am still very happy to let Xu Nan suffer.

It's all to blame on this guy, he lost a lot of money.

Originally, Cameron wanted to wait for the release of the movie "Falling Cherry Blossom God Axe Washington" to buy some water army, and take this opportunity to vent his sulk.

As a result, when it was released, Cameron found that there was no need to buy the water army, because in the case of the whole network playing memes, the water army bought it for nothing.

Seeing Xu Nan succeed again, the breath in his heart not only did not come out, but became even more aggrieved.

But fortunately, if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, and after waiting for so long, I finally waited for a good news to make him comfortable.

Gore, the director of "Spy Shadows", also felt very happy to hear the news, but it was a pity that this incident could not cause too much loss to Xu Nan.

What a fly in the ointment.

Xu Nan also feels very embarrassed now, Netflix is clearly angry with him, and he still has no way.

The most speechless thing is that even if Netflix lowers the purchase price, his purchase price is still higher than Disney.

Xu Nan can't do it even if he wants to give Netflix some eye medicine, Disney is muddy, not to mention Apple Video, it's okay to make a mobile phone, and the streaming media field is completely a younger brother, and even Netflix's finger can't compare.

The people in the company are also persuading Xu Nan to compromise.

George, a veteran employee of the company, said: "President, there is no way, Netflix is so strong, we don't have a good way." ”

"The situation is obvious now, whether it is sold to other video platforms or not, it is better to sell to Netflix, so I think it is better to sign a contract with Netflix, which is the best choice."

Avi also has the same opinion: "Although I am also very angry with Netflix's approach, but business is always business, and it cannot be mixed with personal emotions, at present, signing a contract with Netflix is the best choice, and other options will make us lose a lot of money." ”

Even Lin Ziyi called Xu Nan: "I contacted the people from Netflix, and they are willing to buy the copyright of "Falling Cherry Blossom God Axe Washington" at a price of 7.5 million, and I can only do this, I advise you to bow your head." ”

Xu Nan felt extremely aggrieved, but he was helpless.

Could it really be that you can only compromise with Netflix?

Although this is a normal thing, he always feels a little uncomfortable.

However, if you don't do this, what can you do, no one can check and balance Netflix, the monopoly hegemony of the streaming platform.

At this time, Xu Nan's mobile phone lit up, and a piece of news was pushed to Xu Nan's eyes.

"Paris the Great Man, Save America."
