If you can't, I'll have your assistant arrange your return flight?

Airplane?

Ignatius couldn't help but leave Giant Beast Industries empty-handed, even if he broke his leg.

The right to issue "Drifting Cities: Rise" …

Ignatius implored Ye Qing to give him two minutes to think about it. Ye Qing made a gesture of convenience.

The Drifting City trilogy is Ignatius' most time-consuming song.

He expects the series to bring him more fame and wealth.

The first part of "Drifting Cities" gave him a lot of wealth, but the second part had a huge investment that made him see the liquidity directly to the bottom. Luckily, the second box office would bring him more wealth.

Wealth is approaching, but fame is still a short distance from the ranks of Hollywood's top wires. Perhaps Ignatius will have a chance to climb to the top when the last of the trilogy is successfully completed.

Since the beginning of this year, Huaxia's ticket warehouse has had the number one trend in the total world box office.

Naturally, be particularly cautious when it comes to Huaxia.

Huaxia's exclusive distributor is Honor Film and Television, and if they are at the end of the promotion process, they will revoke the distribution right to the film directly.

What consequences would that have...

Ignatius will undoubtedly be bankrupt.

Honor Film and Television is Party A and Ignatius is Party B. The Contract stipulates that Party B shall compensate three times the cost of publicity if Party B terminates the cooperation on its own initiative for any reason, except for reasons of force majeure.

The promotion fee is RMB 200 million.

Nearly $100 million in compensation, Ignatius certainly cannot afford it.

Even if it can be pulled out, this fruit is about to ripen, but it is rarely picked by individuals and is extremely rare in the global film and television community. Damage to reputation is minor, and honor films and television lawsuits are huge to Hollywood.

Ye Qing shook his head just as Ignatius Heavenly fought, "Mr. Ignatius, it's time for two minutes to think about it. ”

“This is the moment for you to make your choice. ”

Ignatius panicked and cautiously said: "Mr. Ye, Mr. Ye, you know that even if I agree to this request, I need the permission of the other two investors in the film, and I am not alone in this film. ”

Ye Qing laughed, “That's your business. ”

“Do you care so much about Drifting Cities: Rise, seeing his enormous potential? ”

Ignatius first took Ye Qing primarily as a fan of his work, otherwise he would not be able to explain why, at this moment, he must obtain the distribution rights of the film.

“I, like you, look very closely at its potential.” Ignatius had some pleasure and some difficulty in being recognized, "I thought my investor would be able to pass if I insisted, but I was temporarily unable to pay for breach of contract compensation. ”

“Mr. Ignatius, you're wrong. ”

Ye Qing shrugged her shoulders, “I'm not looking at the potential of this movie. In fact, I haven't even seen your last work. I just don't like to see glory movies. ”

“I came to you simply to terminate your collaboration with Honor Film and Television. ”

“The liquidated damages are compensable, but not now, let alone painfully, as required by the contract. ”

Ye Qing sat down and patted Ignatius on the shoulder, laughing: “I don't think you would have let it happen either, just so happily compensate them for tripling their publicity expenses. ”

Ignatius's face suddenly lagged behind.

This young president didn't even see his last work...

It really hurts Ignatius' self-esteem.

Ignatius spent dozens of seconds answering Ye Qing's question.

Of course he didn't, and he even wondered how good it would be if he didn't have to pay the liquidated damages.

But that is simply not possible, where the contracts signed by both parties are located. Ignatius will be compensated as long as the honorary film and television legal department moves in.

“Of course we have to fight the lawsuit. ”

Ye Qing's tone has a negative connotation of encouragement, “You know, the giant companies in Huaxia Film and Television are now fighting against the giant animal industry, and Honor Film and Television is the first hit. ”

“The contract cannot be changed, but in this 200 million announcement, is there no moisture? ”

“100%.” Ignatius has this expression to say.

The world's film and television industry is similar. Half of the 200 million claimed publicity costs can really be spent on the ground, even if it's a conscience operation.

The other half is drifted and of course falls into the issuer's pocket.

This is the basic operation of the film and television industry, and the distributor will pay no false expenses, but they will also bear the possibility of being rendered homeless.

Because this promulgation fee was paid in advance by the issuer, when the box office returns to the cage, the first thing is to make up the issuance fee, and the remaining box office income is divided according to the contract.

If the distributor blindly picks a street piece, it will have to swallow its own bitter fruit after the huge publicity cost is dropped.

Ye Qing revealed such an eye, "If there is moisture, then there is a problem of intentional misstatement by the issuer in the publicity expenses. ”

“They sue for compensation. Of course you apply for an investigation. How can you compensate if you don't find out the true costs? ”

Ye Qing continued to teach him, "This is the destination I invited you to come to, take away the distribution rights of Honor Film and Television, and let him get into a dispute with your international business lawsuit. ”

“I have investigated Honor Video and there is currently not much liquidity left in their accounts. Without the movie's box office bleeding back, they would end up in a breakdown of funds. ”

“I want you to drag this dispute to over six months. Can you do that? ”

“Yes!” Even if Ye Qing doesn't say, Ignatius will have to wait as long as possible.

“Well, now tell me your answer. ”

Ye Qing looked at the receptionist standing next to him, who immediately nodded. Once this guy refuses, he informs the person in charge, cancels Ignatius' itinerary and sends him back to the United States.

“Me, me, me, can I ask you one last question?” Ignatius stood up and said anxiously, “You must understand, Mr. Ye, when I decided to change the distribution rights of the film" Drifting Cities: Rise "to you. ”

“I entered a bet of Sokha's fate. ”

“I can't even predict the box office results for Drifting Cities: Rise on Holographic Glasses, but I know it must be far smaller than the traditional estate that currently covers the entire city of Huaxia. ”

“Not only that, but I will also be caught up in a long contract dispute, and my position on the Hollywood side will also fall dramatically. ”

“So, Mr. Ye, may I ask, after I pay these, can I get something outside the box office? ”

After that, Ignatius collided with his guts and looked straight at Ye Qing.

Ignatius' own chips are nothing in this fateful bet.

The call in the White House was a chip, and it's up to the young president now.

Ye Qing pointed to himself, “You can harvest the friendship of the giant animal industry. ”

Ignatius bit his teeth and yelled, "Okay! ”

“I will send you an original copy of the film as soon as the distribution contract is signed. ”

Ignatius spelled it out for friendship.

His hands behind his back trembled slightly, and he knew that once the contract was signed, his reputation in Hollywood and Huaxia would fall.

But it's all worth it, as long as he lays in the arms of the giant animal industry, even if he offends all of Hollywood, he can rise to the heights of higher achievements.

With the support of the Beast Industry and the White House, can't the others just say a few non painful, non itchy whining crap?

At the same time, he also sent a mourning white rose in advance for the future of Honor Film and Television and several other giant film and television companies.
