It's really good that bangs are doing things, just like inventors, they make money in everything, cars, cars make money, yachts and yachts make money, airplanes and planes make money, not to mention small household appliances, ball kettle rice cookers occupy 80% of the rice cooker market, of course, the cheap price is also one of the reasons.

This is a cartoon of a car advertisement, and the toys are sold for tens of millions of pounds, and other Sun Aiguo can't understand it, but the toys are transported by plane from Hong Kong Island, and you can know how good the sales are.

Moreover, orders have soared from 2 million to 50 million, and the factories engaged in plastics will have a big fat year this year.

The superior department received the request of the dealer on Hong Kong Island in the middle of the night, and held a meeting overnight, and the departments immediately organized people to coordinate, and at the same time requested the dealer to purchase raw materials from all over the world.

Don't worry about this, the dealer is already purchasing, and the toy materials from various ports are loaded on the ship first, and then set off as soon as possible.

"Am I going to split a lot of money again?" When Liu Hai heard this, he asked first.

Sun Aiguo nodded: "That's for sure, but it's hard to say how much this aspect is." ”

"Hey, hey." Liu Hai didn't know, he didn't have much research on this aspect in his previous life.

The domestic planned economic system is running at a high speed, starting from raw materials, and all other plastic-related products that do not matter are stopped, and then waiting for materials and molds to come to the door.

Copy the drawings and then send them to the mold factory, for which various departments have set up a special team to do this, 50 million pounds, this is 50 million.

"The ro-ro ship ordered by the British has passed the acceptance, if there is no British dealer to send a team, we will take at least more than a year, the European and American standards are completely different from the standards of the big brother we learned, the crew room furniture on the ship, even a lighting has detailed requirements."

"It's not the same thing as what we learned before, we have passed the acceptance of the shipping company, and the next step is to prepare to manufacture 10,000-ton containers, as well as bulk carriers."

"But it is said that there is a bill on the American side that does not allow foreign ships to sail on their inland waterways." Sun Aiguo said again.

Bangs shook his head: "This is not clear?" ”

In fact, Liu Hai knows that this is the Jones Act, and the United States stipulates that ships sailing between their own inland rivers and any two ports must belong to the United States, and there is also a provision for personnel, anyway, the proportion of foreigners is very low.

For a very simple example, a cargo ship from us to the United States, after docking and unloading on the west coast of the United States, and loading the cargo there when returning, it can go to South America, or Australia, and then return to China, theoretically you can bring goods in Hawaii on the way.

But no, it's illegal, and foreign merchant ships can't sail between any two U.S. ports.

That is to say, only ships that comply with the Jones Act can be loaded like this, and such a special ship must be expensive, but there is no way.

What has this led to, which has led to the fact that the shipbuilding industry of the United States is not competitive at all, because it is all iron rice bowls.

After the promulgation of this bill, no one found that it was so destructive, because it entered World War II shortly after it was issued, and the huge warship manufacturing industry covered up the shortcomings of this bill, and it has become an iron law to change it in the seventies, because there are interest groups, even if some think tank in the United States in later generations says that this is not appropriate, it is useless.

There is also a well-known organization, the OECD (Club of Developed Countries), which has a working group to cut the cake for the shipbuilding of developed countries.

In another time and space history, because of the oil crisis, the shipbuilding industry began to move to the small book, and this organization intervened, so that the price of the small book increased, and finally had to increase the price by 5%, and then in the eighties, the shipbuilding industry in Europe and the United States entered the cold winter again and moved to the South Peninsula.

As for the first domestic export in another time and space history, the 25,000-ton cargo ship customized by the charter ship king was 78 years old.

In fact, the shipbuilding industry is a labor-intensive, technology-intensive, and capital-intensive enterprise, and the largest upstream and downstream related industry, and it also involves national security, and no country is willing to give up this kind of enterprise.

The reason why we were able to rise in shipbuilding in later generations is related to the huge steel production, skilled workers, and capital.

How many people are needed in the upstream and downstream industrial chain, once the shipyard is insufficient, how many upstream factories will be suspended, and once the steel plant is stopped, the loss is huge.

Let's put it this way, in later generations, some people who manufacture artillery shells have to book our steel and explosives raw materials, which is why many times some developed countries say in government reports that ammunition is insufficient, and then it will take months and months to recover, because steel and explosives raw materials need to be booked in advance, and the more some people support...... Ahem.

"Fortunately, there are dealers, otherwise there are too many things for these pit people." Sun Aiguo heard Liu Hai say he didn't know, and he also nodded, after all, he didn't know what the bill was.

Liu Hai opened his mouth and said: "Dealers also value profits, but it would be better if they could teach us."

"yes." Sun Aiguo nodded.

When Liu Hai heard the news in the morning, Lao Mei's theater chain was in a hurry to send people to negotiate with the Transformers film company, and the distributors did not release it on Lao Mei's side for the first time, but first broadcast it on the influential European side.

Lao Mei's cinema chain is also a capitalist and makes money, and in the face of overwhelming media reports, he is afraid that he will be too late to get the source of the film.

At this time, the movie is film, but it is not taken away by a USB flash drive in the back, it is more troublesome to rip or something, transportation, and even the film is robbed after the film is finished.

Hollywood is a big pit, but in the face of dealers who are better than ghosts, they have to admit defeat, because the film is not produced by Hollywood companies, Hollywood is very domineering, and investors don't want to be cheated, but this is an imported film that goes directly to the theater channel.

What makes Hollywood companies grit their teeth is that this grandson does not make publicity at all, but the media reports it overwhelmingly.

No way, who let Europe be far ahead in fashion and status, although the rich people of the United States sneer at the down-and-out aristocracy, but they still imitate the lives of others.

Dealers will not ask for too high a price, and the same arrangement as other blockbusters, you can divide it, because this movie comes with advertisements, and then it also comes with peripherals.

Then it was agreed that it would be launched in North America on December 24, and then the toys began to be distributed.

The toys have long been transported to the warehouses of various dealers in the United States, of course, this amount is too small.

At this time, the box office statistics are very slow, and in the afternoon, Sun Aiguo received the news that yesterday's European movie box office was 4.6 million US dollars, mainly on the first day of trial operation, although the reputation is good, but the theaters are more cautious, and the attendance rate is almost 90%, because some high-end movie theaters, such as Notting Hill, are not full with sofas, coffee, tea, and boxes.

When Liu Hai heard the news, he knew that he was stable.

After the European box office came out, the exciting old American theater didn't want it, but unfortunately the film was not in place, the dealer hired security personnel, looking at each roll of film, this is the film, this is the money printing machine, and the theater chain has also strengthened the security force, after all, the theater chain does not want to have piracy.

On December 21, the European box office was $9.64 million.

On December 22, the European box office was $12.3 million.

On December 24, the European box office was 13.5 million, because there are so many theaters in the largest line, and it is close to Christmas, so there is some room to make room for other movies.

On December 24, the North American box office was 11.5 million.

On December 25, the combined box office in Europe and North America was 28.7 million.

On December 26, the combined box office in Europe and North America was 24.3 million, because of the fierce competition.

On Sunday, December 27, the combined box office in Europe and North America exceeded 30 million, because many movie theaters added to the show, not to mention leaving work on time, as long as the boss gave enough overtime pay.

Seven days after its official release, the total box office in North America and Europe was close to $130 million.

Of course, the toys are out of stock, in fact, there is nothing, but people are sometimes like this, the more they don't have, the more they want, and the toy dealer has to stipulate that each child should buy one.

With the winter vacation, Transformers toys appeared frequently in the hands of children, and then the box office of the movie kept rising, and in the following week, it did not fall below 30 million every day.

Of course, this also caused some trouble, some car companies in North America prosecuted a company on suspicion of advertising a certain car company in cartoons, which made Hollywood studios speechless.

There are also experts who criticize this as a whimsical advertisement, which is not a movie at all and should not go to the cinema.

Anyway, the box office was high until January 4, '71, because the 3rd was a Sunday, and the total box office reached as much as $250 million at this time, which is North America and Europe.

Although the box office has decreased, it has a lot of stamina, with an average attendance rate of more than 70% every day and a box office of more than 20 million.

This makes many film companies envious and jealous, because this Transformers has no publicity fee, or it is very low, and they play some samples in their own stores to attract children.

What else is 007 or the like, how much publicity and distribution costs, roadshows everywhere, giving interviews, buying TV news, and creating hot spots.

At this time, the domestic leaders looked confused, in fact, the domestic leaders didn't think about the box office, they wanted to make five million pounds, after all, this cartoon is quite ridiculous, what kind of car becomes a robot, is the car a refinement?

The plot is also relatively simple.,Cartoons with no educational significance are not good cartoons.。

But with a box office of 250 million in half a month, if you count it as one dollar, 250 million people have watched this cartoon?

And according to the expert estimates of the dealer, it is no problem to break through 400 million, and 500 million dare to think, after all, there are other places, 70 years in South America, small books, and the South Peninsula are very rich.

The leaders hurriedly took out the contract and took a look, good guys, this is more than 100 million yuan?

Dealers didn't expect to sell so much, according to European and American film producers, it can be divided into 35%-40%, distributors can be divided into 5-10%, theaters can be divided into 5-10%, and theaters can be divided into 50-60%.

The dealer didn't expect such a big profit, so it was agreed at that time that in addition to the investment of 5 million pounds, the remaining profits would be divided into 50% by themselves, 44% in the mainland, and the remaining 6% would be given to the screenwriter.

Because it also advertises the cars it sells, as well as toys or something, the key is the first season, and there is a second season or something in the follow-up.

Because the distributor is both producing and distributing, and it is better to negotiate with the theater chain, it can get half of the box office.

44% of 250 million, that's 110 million?

I didn't do anything at home, so I'm going to get 110 million?

Of course, some people have noticed that screenwriters and authors share 6%, which is actually 5% in the industry, but many people have to give a sum of money to the author first, and the dealer also knows that it is not an ordinary person, so they give 6%, anyway, some earn and only give.

For a while, the leaders can't be rectified, and many factories are tired and tired.

Of course, the dust has not settled yet, but the superior leaders have been reported.

After reading it, the higher-level leaders had a feeling, is this still the Comrade Xiao Liu I know?

Because according to this calculation, Comrade Xiao Liu's income is 15 million US dollars, as if the previous 10,000-ton cargo ship is only how much money?

"Leader, there are also comic publishing, videotapes, stickers, toys, these revenue dealers have stipulated the proportion of income that the author should earn." Then the person below reported again.

The superior leader looked at his coat next to him, and had to say that the fur coat was warm, and said, "Let's talk about it when the dust settles." ”

"Okay." The people below are also numb, of course, there are very few people who know this share.

Of course, Liu Hai didn't know about this, after all, the source was limited, but he knew that the mold workshop on the motorcycle factory had been busy recently, and he had sent a large number of toy molds to Hong Kong Island.

"Xiao Liu, the dealer asked to make a few more sizes of Transformers models." On January 4, 1971, Liu Hai came to the factory from his hometown, and he didn't go to the factory for a meeting.

"Okay, leader." Bangs agreed.

"It's hard work, I'll go to the meeting first." Sun Aiguo dropped a sentence and left.

Liu Hai gathered the people from the maintenance department to give the figure a pattern, and asked Li Dali and a few people to draw it, and he came to ponder the kind of cos costume worn by the people in the playground in later generations, the kind that is more than three meters high.

It's going to be made of fiberglass or plastic, and then it's going to be painted or something.

As for whether to make something that children can wear, this is not considered for the time being, and I don't know what considerations Europe and the United States have for this kind of toy.

Coupled with the cool marquee, I believe the sales are not bad, and this can also shoot live-action movie props or something.

In the afternoon, Sun Aiguo was free here, watching the maintenance department drawing, and came to the Liu Hai office: "This is delaying your affairs again, it is really urgent for the dealer, just these days, the plane has been transported hundreds of times, all the toys are delivered, not enough." ”

"After all, there is a holiday in the West, and it will be fine after that." Of course, Liu Hai knew what Christmas meant to the West, so he put down what he was holding and poured tea for Sun Aiguo, and the director of the factory could rest more on his side.

Other times it's too busy, after all, such a big factory, there are too many things to do.

"I heard that you can get a 6% share of this movie, how do you arrange this?" Sun Aiguo also came today with a mission.

"Personally, I don't accept it in principle." Hearing this, Liu Hai shook his head and said.

Sun Aiguo shook his head: "It's not appropriate, you also know that this animated movie has gathered a lot of people, if the movie is successful, the people over there will also be rewards, if you don't take it, what will others say?" ”

Sun Aiguo actually didn't know the specific box office of the movie, but the superior department asked him to ask first, and it is estimated that it is indispensable, otherwise the superior would not be so cautious.

"Don't talk about donating, this is for foreigners." Sun Aiguo continued.

When Liu Hai heard this, he was a little speechless, and then asked, "This leader shows me a clear way?" ”

"It was the superior who asked me to ask you, I estimate that you may have to share a lot of money, and I also heard that the dealer suggested taking out a part of the reward project team, because there is a second part later, how to cooperate in the second part, and we will continue to talk about it after the box office of the movie lands this time." Sun Aiguo picked up the teacup and blew the foam, took a sip and continued.

In fact, there is no need for Sun Aiguo to say, Liu Hai also estimated it, and then asked: "What is your foreign name?" ”

"Jack." Sun Aiguo replied.

"I can't do anything about this, listen to the arrangement of my superiors." Bangs directly shook the pot, at this time I didn't know what I wanted, the superiors were so cautious, at least a few million, what can I buy in China now?

Buying a tank? Buying a plane?

Suddenly, bangs' heart moved, it seems that he can buy a plane and come back to study? It's a pity that the old and beautiful Black Eagle hasn't come out yet, and the other rags can't be looked down on.

And to buy an airplane and come back to study, this doesn't seem to work, after all, the director of the factory will not agree.

As for other infant vaccines, there is no need to worry about Liu Hai, because foreign technology has already been purchased and produced by itself, after all, there is a shortage of people everywhere now.

Medical care has improved greatly, after all, there is money.

"That's all there is to it." Sun Aiguo also knows that Liu Hai personally doesn't know what to do, and he doesn't know what to do, on the one hand, he doesn't know how much it is, and on the other hand, it will involve some other issues.

"Big toys are not in a hurry, you can do it yourself during the holidays." Sun Aiguo dropped a sentence, drank dry tea, and left.

Bangs nodded, just this big toy is not in a hurry, let the queen look at the drawings, and then throw it aside, he simply took the aluminum skin to make a sample, let others make a drawing, anyway, after the drawing, he has to make a sample, it is better to do a good sample and let others survey, and then make a mold or something.

The bangs are very calm here, and the dealers are dumbfounded, of course, not only the dealers, but Hollywood is also stunned by this Transformers.

The total box office is basically so much, no matter how much it is, there is no more place, and there was no news at the beginning of the transformation gold, and it suddenly popped up at the end of the year.

And you didn't announce it, you secretly showed it to your children in the store, and you made a lot of money.

For a while, many people came to cooperate, to invest in the second part, to make live-action movies, and some to publish comics, video stickers, toy authorization, and so on.

Toys, dealers did not reduce the price, according to the price of toys in Europe and the United States, because I didn't expect it to be so popular, even spare plans to buy cars to send toys, buy electrical appliances to send toys.

The investment of five million pounds, and then the five million pounds of publicity costs, are still earned by their own employees.

Less than 100 million dollars a month, and looking at this stamina, I'm afraid it will be a lot more.

"What a genius, there are already Hollywood companies willing to pay $5 million to buy live-action movie rights." In a manor house in London, several family heads of dealers sat together, enjoying afternoon tea and talking about things.

"Let him go, let's shoot it ourselves."

"Yes, those guys in Hollywood are all vampires, let's not get too entangled with these guys."

"It's really a genius, making 100 million dollars a month, oh my God, the money printing machine is not so fast."

"Let's talk to them in the second season, we should give more production costs."

"Those Hollywood guys are going crazy right now."

"What are you afraid of, they dare to make small moves, let's also make small moves, we nobles are not those potatoes in the council."

"Yes, a bunch of cowards, I suggest that we add another aircraft carrier fleet, and we can decommission an old one."

"Yes, our nobles need enough force to communicate with the military and shipbuilding enterprises."

"We have to protect our global trade."

"We pay so much tax every year, so we should be protected."

"I'm looking forward to the next cartoon, genius is genius, and it can shine breathtakingly in any field."

"I'm looking forward to our Majesty's yacht, I don't know how amazing it is."

"I'm looking forward to the big dog cart and the family wagon." Someone shrugged and said.

"Cheers to our cause, whoever stands in the way of our cause is our enemy, and we must be like our ancestors, pick up a gun and blow their dog's head."

"We don't have to do it, we just need to give money, some are killers."

"I think we should set up an international security company to protect our business."

"It's a good suggestion, we can buy planes, artillery, warships, and sometimes we have to have our own armed forces."

A bunch of dealers felt that they were making too much money, as if someone was staring at their money bags again, and began to think about private security service companies.

"Our genius writer, I'm afraid this time we can divide 20 million dollars."

"I shouldn't have taken it, I didn't take it the first few times."

"It's a pity that we didn't discover this kind of talent earlier, otherwise we would have had a chance at that time through his wife's father."

"In fact, it's okay, people may not have so much imagination in a different environment, this person's genius design, most of them are related to closed news, because many things can only be imagined, what the designer wants is imagination, if he really comes into contact with our Western art, maybe he hasn't learned anything else, he will learn to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble."

"You're wrong, that's called personality, nature."

Pray for the friends of Gansu! I wish you all peace and security.

Thank you for your concern, the body is still a little uncomfortable, but it should be the sequelae, and today's update is over.
