Chapter 2327 The filth of Universal Pictures

   "The box office has exceeded 100 million?" Li Han was a little stunned when he received the call. "So fast?"

  Li Han thought that he would wait two days for over 100 million yuan, but he didn't expect it to be so fast. When the box office came out in the second week, the whole Hollywood was shocked.

  According to the current posture, the teddy bear will break through 200 million US dollars, and it is a certainty that it can even hit the 300 million US dollar mark. The evaluation of teddy bears by major entertainment media is surprisingly good, especially Xiao Hei Hei's acting skills, which have become a highlight.

   Seth MacFarlane, here is a promise from Universal Pictures, the second part, Seth can get less than 80 million funds.

  No, Seth MacFarlane, who was overjoyed, took a bottle of good wine and came to find Li Han. "Universal Pictures, it is not surprising that there is such a plan." Li Han said with a smile. "Teddy Bear's North American box office may break 300 million US dollars, and the global box office will definitely not be bad."

   "Three hundred million is too difficult, but to reach 250 million is not bad." Seth said.

   "That's pretty good too." Li Han said with a smile.

   Seth MacFarlane nodded, but this guy has been on the phone all the time, but he didn't have time to chat with Li Han more. "Seth, you should be busy first if you have something to do." Li Han said with a smile.

   "Okay, Xiao Hei Hei, you can save me a time slot." Seth said.

"no problem."

  Li Han smiled and sent Seth away.

   Go back to the living room and have a good time. "Hehe, how is it, the wine is good."

   "It's a good wine, but Han, why do you still have the heart to drink? Universal Pictures, it seems that they want to invest by themselves, and they don't plan to take you with them." Natalie said.

   "The investment in this second part is bigger than the first one. Besides, I didn't plan to invest in the second part." Li Han, holding a wine glass, said.

   "Well, Han, the teddy bear is so popular, the second film will definitely not be bad at the box office." Natalie, said. "According to your contract with Universal Pictures, the copyright belongs, but there is a chance to find a drill."

  Li Han, smiled. "The influence of Universal Pictures is there. Even if I want to obtain copyright, it will not be difficult. Besides, although I have invested in a few movies, I have no intention of participating in the film and television industry."

   "But this is too bad."

  Li Han smiled. "It can't be considered a loss. After all, investment, maybe it's something, this time the teddy bear may make a profit, maybe the lower part will lose money. Besides, the investment amount is too large, and the cycle is uncertain, I don't have time to wait."

   "That's right."

   "However, Seth seems to be planning to make another film next year," Natalie said. "Seth just said, Han, why don't you talk to me."

   "Seth doesn't have a shortage of funds right now. I'll be involved in this lively event." Li Han picked up his coffee and took a sip.

  Natalie and Liu Xiaoxiao, Alta is speechless, this guy, people are selling favors to you, you are also hypocritical, really.

   "Forget it, forget it, let's go to Pandora and Xiao Hei Hei." Liu Xiaoxiao said. "This guy is dead brains."

  Li Han looked at Liu Xiaoxiao who was bulging and shook his head slightly. "what."

The phone rang, Li Han, a little confused, the number seemed to be, a director who was introduced to him at the reception a few days ago by Seth, signed an agreement of intent, and planned to invest in a comedy made by this director. The money is not much, about three hundred Ten thousand.

   "Release the association?" Li Han frowned slightly. "I will think about it."

  Li Han, the phone here just hung up, and it rang again after a while. I didn't expect that the association would also be cancelled. "I'm going to cancel the agreement again."

   This is not over yet. After a while, I have invested in many comedies and all received calls from the director, and without exception, they all cancelled their contracts.

   "Okay, one cent for the liquidated damages, if you don't want less, the agreement can be lifted."

   "Mr. Li, liquidated damages, look, can you..."

   Before he could finish speaking, Li Han hung up the phone.

   Universal Pictures, the investment department received calls from several directors. "Limited damages?"

   "This Chinese, looks crazy."

   "Although there are provisions for liquidated damages in the agreement, very few people really care about the rules in the film and television industry."

   "You said that Chinese boy is crazy."

   "I see, that Chinese boy, at most talk about it."

"That's true." The investment department, on this side, looked down on Li Han from the beginning. You know, this guy is just a farmer in Montana, and he doesn't have much culture. Investing in teddy bears is mostly lucky, or Really stupid money.

These guys, stimulated by the teddy bear this time, didn't even think about it, did they investigate Li Han's back, or else, according to the channels of Universal Pictures, they knew about the relationship between Li Han and the Disney Group , not difficult.

   If there is anything nasty with the Hollywood media, ask about it, it is not difficult to know.

But these people are thinking about how to squeeze Li Han out of Teddy Bear II, and if they want to get the right to make movies from the director recommended by Seth, you know, who knows, there will be another film here. Teddy Bear, according to the current popularity of Teddy Bear, the 250 million North American box office, steadily, at the global box office, at least doubled.

This is a rare blockbuster film with a very low cost. It is a textbook investment case. However, Universal Pictures, this time, it is fun, and its share is too small, except for Li Han's 55%. , and Seth's 5 percent, and all of a sudden Universal Pictures' side is only 40 percent.

   This is all done. The industry is laughing. One of Hollywood's most famous film companies is not as insightful as a Chinese kid who has never been in the film and television industry. This is a big joke.

  Universal Pictures, it's no wonder that Li Han's impression is good.

  Universal Pictures grabbed Li Han's investment in the film, and it quickly spread in the circle. Many film and television companies were happy to see it happen. You know, no one wants to be a Chinese boy, even in the Hollywood film and television circle.

   Seth MacFarlane, though, was annoyed that these friends of his were going back on their word, but there was no good way. "Han, I'm so sorry."

   "Seth, it doesn't matter to you, I have contacted a lawyer." Li Han said. "Since the MRT is required, and the liquidated damages, I will not ask for one less point."

   "What, Han, no." Seth laughed.

  Seth, I was really taken aback. You must know that there are unspoken rules in the industry, and very few people will pursue liquidated damages for agreements, especially in the circle. Of course, when a formal contract is signed, the compensation is generally in accordance with the law.

The    agreement is a bit different. Of course, according to the law, liquidated damages need to be compensated, but it is a convention in the circle.

   Whoever breaks the unspoken rules, this circle will exclude you, this matter, Seth Mark Farrland, did not expect this to happen. "Seth, I'm not a philanthropist, I'll come out with this matter," Li Han said.

   Most of Seth and these people are friends, and it's hard to talk on both sides. Li Han, don't embarrass Seth. Here, after speaking, Li Han hung up the phone.

   Seth MacFarlane smiled wryly, this is a troublesome thing, but unfortunately I don't have time now, I'll go there at night, don't really make a big trouble, after all, Li Han doesn't know much about the rules of the circle.
