Hollywood legendary director

Wanying or WanD's demand for movies is actually very clear.

According to Andrew, as soon as he went there, they were incredibly enthusiastic. After some acquaintance, when he showed the intention of cooperation, the other party also expressed their considerations sincerely.

Andrew: "You know, the success of "Pacific Rim" is based on the power of many friends. Now we are not eager to introduce new partners...The project has not so many risks to share. "

Li Yaoguang: "Mr. Andrew, this is not all right. Wanying does not have much success in film and television announcements, but we have WanD Cinemas and WanD Plazas in many cities. We can definitely help a project improve its marketability. Share..."

Then, while talking, even Wang Jianlin personally promised something over the phone.

This series of feasible benefits without too much interference seemed to impress Andrew, but in fact, he just followed Lehman's instructions, and no matter what the other party said, he would make some demands-

"In order to avoid unpleasant differences in the next cooperation, first of all, our cooperation will definitely clarify the investment share, and after that, we have the final say on how to implement the project. You only have the right to propose and the right to distribute regionally. Enjoy the proportion of accounts you deserve. Of course, in this process, like other partners, the project accounts and expenditures are open to you. You can send someone to check the accounts and verify the revenue."

"Secondly, considering the copyright operations other than the film, although the mainland market is not prosperous, it is worth developing. This part of the operation requires your efforts..."

In the office.

After hearing these words, Lehman said: "That is to say, Wan D has no objection to our requirements, and also expressed that they can cooperate and reciprocate in the Hollywood market outside the mainland?"

"Yes."

"They also agreed to help us establish an authorized distribution system in the Mainland?"

"Yes." Andrew nodded one after another.

Of course, for the latter, Lehman is also a recent idea, the purpose is to lay the foundation for the future development of role economy.

Because of the characteristics of the national conditions, in the category of official status, MAN Media has no managers who are well versed in this way and have been dealing with the government. They can only use local forces as a platform and adopt reasonable means of profit sharing to integrate and develop a part of the mainland. In the copyright market, it is said that the renminbi of "Pacific Rim" is used to settle accounts directly in the mainland, and there is no additional tax.

You know, these days, the box office of "Pacific Rim" continues to accumulate. In addition to some entertainment, Lehman has also inquired about the authorization situation in the Mainland.

Although it is similar to his understanding-copyright awareness has a long way to go, but the atmosphere is getting better year by year.

Even if "Pacific Rim" has been screened for more than three weeks, privately recorded videos, BT****, and even some leather pirates have shipped discs, which greatly affected the film's screening work. .

Fortunately, "Pacific Rim" requires a lot of audio-visual equipment. Watching at home and in the movie theater are almost two films. The effects are difficult to compare. Even Bona and Huayi have taken the lead to eliminate many pirated dens. A lot has been contained, but there are still real losses.

Of course, what Lehman cares more about than the box office is the difficulty of the licensing business.

On the Hollywood side, he who has enjoyed large and long-term channel profit sharing must definitely want to turn this business into a major part of the total revenue in the Mainland.

And whether it is the development of film elements (such as clothing, school bags), or small items such as keychains, or even brand linkage, there is also a market here. There are not a few audiences and fans who buy it, and it is increasing year by year. The only problem is Can you have the strength to restrain merchants who are profitable without authorization, and at the same time use legal means to produce and sell themselves or OEM authorization?

In order to achieve this, these entertainment companies in the Mainland need to be drawn up, and the greater the influence and influence, the better.

It doesn't take much. As long as the proportion of the licensing market can be slowly expanded, Lehman is very willing to do this.

From this perspective, WanD's entry into Hollywood is to expand its business, for the international market, Lehman is paving the way for the mainland and Asia, and also for the international market. The needs of the two are the same, and WanD is short of high-quality content. output.

"Andrew."

"Boss, you say."

"Next, I will ask Joseph to set up a subsidiary in charge of overseas business. You take this and go to talk to Wanying and give up some shares in exchange for their support for our business. In addition, I will establish a joint venture in the Mainland. The company is responsible for the settlement of co-production projects and copyright operations. Remember to talk to the director of China Film Corporation. As for the establishment of this mainland company, you will also serve as the general manager."

Lyman patted Andrew on the arm, his face heavy.

"I will do it all."

It wasn't until he walked outside the door and walked to the parking lot that Andrew pretended to be a boxer and made a few gestures to the air without an image.

Of course he knows what Lyman’s last words mean, and he is also excited about his career promotion-as long as he does this thing well, then he can become one of the boss’s confidants, Responsible for communicating with the Chinese side, taking on more responsibilities and having a greater position in the mobilization of funds.

There was no one beside him, and he didn't need to hide any emotions. In this way, under the momentum of self-motivation, Andrew carried a briefcase and started his work actively.

On the other hand, the main goal of Lehman’s task is to clarify the investment rights of all parties. The overseas company is used to clarify the accounts with WanD. In some projects, this subsidiary is used to participate in the production of a certain proportion. As for the mainland company, the scope of cooperation has been reduced a lot. This is also because the advantage of WanD is far greater than the other two (China Film is a state-owned enterprise, representing the official), and the bargaining chips given are naturally different.

Anyway, in this brief meeting, Lehman only needs to get a co-ordination dominance, so much of the rest can take time.

Again, as capital rushes into Hollywood, although it will eventually become more monopolistic and there will be fewer opportunities for people below, but in this process, many studios have benefited because there is too much hot money to produce films. The threshold is lowering, and while many filmmakers can get opportunities, the investment quota is naturally higher. This has positive and vital benefits for the director, the actors, the audience, and the theater chain.

In the evening, Lyman went back to the hotel, and Liam sent a few more emails.
