Chapter 64: Cooperation (Part II)
Suppression before negotiation is a common tactic.
You have to underestimate yourself, so we can take advantage of the situation and ask for a sky-high price.
However, Li Xianyun did not deny the mistake of the ghost record in the market selection, but he didn't care at all.
Jiang Zheng is even more like you burn money casually, and I am determined to support you.
This makes the crackdown pointless.
Yang Yuan and Lin Quan exchanged glances.
After all, it was Yang Yuandao: "Chasing this film against time, I have watched it with Mr. Lin and I, and I confirm that it will definitely make money, and it is conservatively estimated that the box office will not be less than 10 million." ”
Hehe, if you can't suppress it, you will change it to praise?
It is estimated that he knew that Li Xianyun and Jiang Zheng saw the problem and changed their attitude in an instant.
But that's still true!
Awesome characters always cover up lies with truth.
What was before was the truth, and so is the present.
Li Xianyun knows that these people are industry veterans with vicious eyes, they are like editors of Chinese websites, they may not be able to write a big selling online article, but they can judge whether this article can be a big seller, even if they can't judge which book is a big sale, they can also judge which one must be pounced.
In short, the vision is no problem.
Yang Yuan judged that the box office would not be less than 10 million, so basically there would be no problem with this play.
Lin Quandao: "But what about the follow-up funds? Reverse time hunting still needs to be done in the later stage, even if you lower the special effects standard, and it is your own company, it will not be completed in two or three months, and it will be filed online after it is done, and there will be a platform rating after the filing, and you will have to wait for the launch after the rating, and there will be a settlement period after the launch. It's been seven months since you acquired the company, and you still have to do special effects in the later stage of this film, and it will take two months to rush the work, and then submit it for review, platform grading, scheduling, and wait for it to go online for at least four or five months, and then it will be settled at least one month later...... And you have to pay Liu Fatzi five million to them. ”
Yang Yuan has said: "The ghost record has not been graded yet, even if it is graded and scheduled, it will not be released together, once the first part is not satisfactory, it will not be able to meet the needs of five million." ”
Damn, that's all right.
Today is May 20th.
The acquisition of Yisheng Media was signed in early November.
Five months and ten days to go!
When the time comes, I will have to return the first five million to Liu Fatzi.
Jiang Zheng said indifferently: "We still have some money on our books, and we also have some income from the ghost war in the secret room." ”
Jiang Zheng invested 15 million, acquired the company 3 million, recorded 8 million, chased 2.5 million against time, and invested 13.5 million yuan, and the half-year period of the ghost war in the secret room was almost over, and the box office income was 2.3 million, and half of it was distributed to Wu Baoliu Qingzhi, that is, 1.15 million. As for the Road of Crazy Corpses, more than two million have been sold in the past month or so, but only fifteen percent, that is, about 300,000.
Yisheng Media itself is actually a slight loss, so Yisheng Media's current book income is only about three million.
It will take at least a month for the ghost record to be launched, and if it is rated as B, it will be okay to recover the cost.
Five million is just enough to pay it back.
But......
Lin Quan already said: "But you won't be able to do anything in the next period of time." ”
Dry!
That's right again.
If the ghost record can't make money, they won't have more money to make a film.
Film and television companies don't make films, and they don't make money in the later stage, so drink the northwest wind?
Li Xianyun and Jiang Zheng were speechless at the same time.
Shen Rong said with a smile: "Therefore, the financing still has to be financed." How can there be a reason for making movies to always come out with their own money. ”
You can be brothers, and the benefits will be golden.
The problem is that you don't have a knife now, Jin can't break it, and you can only guess boxing and play with brothers in the next half a year.
Not only that, Li Xianyun thought of a question.
Huayou Group has a close relationship with major platforms, and even films that have not been rated and have not been launched can be seen, in other words, if they say hello to the major platforms and put down the grading standards of ghost detection records, the scheduling time will be postponed......
I'll go!
The consequences would be terrible......
Shopping malls are like battlefields, and this kind of thing is not impossible.
This can't be a threat to me, is it?
Li Xianyun looked at Yang Yuan, and Yang Yuan was full of smiles.
Maybe it's because I'm thinking too much.
But even if Yang Yuan doesn't have this idea now, they can't guarantee that there will be one later.
Li Xianyun is also deeply aware of a problem:
The first important thing to do business is not high profits, but low risk. Because money is endless, but a high risk can make you completely doomed. The second is circulation. From the preparation of production to the revenue, the fastest theoretical is six months, and the best is nine months, which does not take into account the settlement period.
If you settle one to make one, you can make a maximum of three movies in two years.
It's impossible for a company that wants to be a climate to make only one or two movies a year.
Otherwise, why do film and television companies have to finance their projects?
The essential reason is the need for capital circulation, but it is forced by a group of pits to lead the rhythm and become the demand for pit money.
And whether it is risk reduction or capital flow, they are not allowed to delay.
Li Xianyun understands all these truths, but after all, he lacks practical experience, and many times he has to wait until the end of the day to truly understand.
Jiang Zheng also seemed to realize this, and exchanged glances with Li Xianyun.
Lin Quan was still saying: "So you don't have so much money for the filming of follow-up movies in the short term, so cooperation is the best way out." If Director Li and Mr. Jiang are willing to let go of the conditions appropriately, I think it is still possible for Huayou and you to cooperate. ”
From what I heard, they really didn't mean it yet, it was really pure persuasion.
The previous hints are just some negotiation tactics in the market.
Li Xianyun thought for a while and said, "What you mainly value is the use of special effects?" ”
Yang Yuan said with a smile: "In fact, we also recognize your level as a director, but you are the boss, if you want to do a good job, you can't bind yourself to the position of director in the future." We are optimistic about your talent as a director, but not on your development in it...... Unless you're stuck in the size of your company all your life. ”
Heh, Jiang Zheng said this.
Li Xianyun understood this, nodded and said: "When the time comes, I, the director, will naturally leave the scene." But at this stage, I'm still mainly a director. I have an idea......"
Several people listened to him together, only Shen Rong gave Qin Yuyun a look, Qin Yuyu smiled, poured tea for Li Xianyun, and picked up vegetables.
Li Xianyun smiled at Qin Yuqi and said thank you, then turned to Yang Yuan and said: "The special effects of Yisheng Media are not impossible to serve Huayou, the price, and it is not impossible to negotiate. But the condition is that we have to control it...... The technology must be kept absolutely confidential, and no one is allowed to intervene in it. ”
As soon as these words came out, Li Xianyun was equivalent to directly slapping himself in the face: At the beginning, he kept saying that Yisheng Media only made movies led by himself, and he turned his head and began to cooperate.
But the reality is: it is normal for businessmen to slap themselves in the face, and no one's words should be taken seriously.
Yang Yuan also smiled.
It's good to have your words.
