Chapter 835: A Completely Different America
Representatives of CJ Entertainment and Toho Co., Ltd. sat together, but the two sides were disgusted with each other, and neither looked down on the other.
Penguin and Jingdong and the representatives of Pinxi got together, Ali and Byte's representatives were mixed together, and the small conference room was divided into various factions.
But the moment Xu Jia walked into the conference room, everyone subconsciously stood up and saluted this man, which was a reverence for a top boss in the industry.
Like the Wang brothers, no one can look down on an industry so low, but Xu Jia can go from a small entertainment industry to today's scale, then they all have to say admiration, including the bigwigs behind the group, such as Ma Huateng and Ma Yun, who still face Xu Jia is not to be underestimated.
To tell the truth, if it weren't for the industry restricting Jiaxing's expansion, they would not have been able to cooperate with Jiaxing so harmoniously now, even so, everyone actually has occasional friction and estrangement, which also shows that Jiaxing is on the road to becoming a giant.
It is only between giants and giants that it will be difficult to integrate.
"You have all seen the results of "Squid Game", the number of views on the first day exceeded 5 million, and now it has exceeded 10 million, it is foreseeable that it is only a matter of time before it sweeps the world, and even the actor Duan Yihong already has his own fans overseas, including the global popularity of supporting roles has increased more or less."
Xu Jia looked around at everyone, all of them had no fluctuations on the surface, but in fact, his eyes were hiding all kinds of careful thoughts, and then he said unhurriedly: "This is a cake, a sweet and delicious cake, but who eats it, how much it eats, and whether it can be eaten in the future, it depends on everyone's performance in the future, do you understand what I mean?" ”
This bait is scattered, and it is almost the same as the gang in front of them, who are more eager for overseas markets than anyone else.
Whether it is CJ, Toho Club, or Penguin Ali and other domestic giants, they all need channels to overseas markets, and it is difficult to do it with their strength alone, even if they are united, it is only because of Xu Jia's leadership that they see this line of hope, and they naturally have to do their best to seize it.
"Mr. Xu, what do you say, we will do it, everything is up to your arrangement." The person in charge of Ali took the lead.
Ali Entertainment has also invested a lot in the global entertainment strategy, but there has been no progress.
"We're the same, we're all at your disposal." Others chimed in.
"Since everyone is so elevating me Xu, then I'm not welcome."
Xu Jia pretended to arch his hand, and then said solemnly: "First, the publicity funds of "Squid Game" must be invested at least 100 million US dollars, and this money should not be invested in a short period of time, mainly to promote our platform to enough users, and second, to take out at least 100 million US dollars of production funds to attract enough producers and projects to produce for us, without enough high-quality content output, even if it attracts users, it is difficult to retain, you should understand these two points." ”
"Third, the finished film of "Aquaman" is expected to come out at the end of the year, and "Oppenheimer" is the year after the year, one is placed in the New Year file, and the other is placed in the Spring Festival file, and the publicity fund also starts at 100 million US dollars each.
"Who doesn't want to give out this money, you can withdraw, I'll fill it in, it's okay."
For a production company, it may choose to find a suitable funding node and then maximize the benefits, but for Xu Jia, making money is secondary, if he can spend the money through this movie to leverage a greater reputation, that is to achieve his goal.
How much can you make from a movie again? But a streaming media platform has been successfully built, as long as Xu Jia wants to, selling it for billions of dollars is the same as playing, don't underestimate this kind of entertainment and public opinion position, no matter how many forces want to buy it, they can't buy it.
Everyone looked at each other and agreed to make this investment without even thinking about it.
At this time, whoever is kicked out because of money is a big fool.
……
Coming to Los Angeles again, compared to the previous obscurity, now as soon as he got off the plane, Xu Jia saw Warner's Kevin and his party waiting.
"Xu, welcome to the United States, we have specially prepared a celebration banquet for you." Kevin laughed.
"Hehe, it's not the first time I've come, it's so grand." Xu Jia said casually.
This guy actually drove the car to the front of the plane, and he didn't have to think that it must be the explosion of "Squid Game", which made this guy see how great the potential of streaming media he didn't care about before, so he bothered to think about it.
"That's different, although you were successful before, but more limited to China, now you are famous in Hollywood, and you will face a completely different America." Kevin said.
is like a sentence in an ancient TV series "Beijing People in New York", if you love him, then you send him to New York, because it is heaven, and if you hate him, send him to New York, because it is hell.
This sentence is the same for the United States, the treatment and scenery that people of different status enjoy in the United States are also completely different, and Xu Jia is now obviously qualified to enter a new class.
However, Xu Jia was very calm, glanced at Kevin and said leisurely: "It doesn't matter to me what America is like, what I am is is the most important thing, isn't it?" Please take me to a cleaner place, and we need to talk about something else. ”
This sugar-coated cannonball wants to corrode him?
What are you kidding, this is where to go, if he is satisfied, he will only be assimilated by the other party, and he will slowly be like those predecessors who tried to break into the world before, lost in a momentary success, and then one day break the illusion and leave in disgrace.
When Kevin heard this, his eyes changed when he saw Xu Jia, and he nodded for a long time and said, "Okay, just according to what you said, let's change to a clean place." ”
From this moment, he really put Xu Jia on the same level as Warner.
The relationship between him and Xu Jia was good before, in his opinion, the other party was at most his help, and the two sides used each other, but now it is different, putting Xu Jia on the same level as Warner means that the latter is a higher level than himself.
After all, he is only the president of Warner, and Xu Jia is the controller of Jiaxing.
"Well, I'm not talking about "Squid Game" this time, but "Aquaman", and we always have to look forward, right?"
Xu Jia got into the car, and at this moment he was more like the owner of the car than Kevin.
