The Liar Who Invaded the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 721: The right to speak is at your fingertips

Mai Xiaoyu played too much this time. Rao is a group of experienced old drivers who dare not drive easily. Yes)? Meaning)? Thinking)? Book)? Courtyard)

One minute later, they were thinking.

After five minutes, they were thinking.

Ten minutes later, they were still thinking.

Twenty minutes passed and the thinking was over, but no one spoke.

Because I thought about it for 20 minutes, there was no result in my mind, so I could only look around, hoping to listen to the opinions and opinions of others, and make reference for my own decision.

The tragedy was that all seven people thought this way, and the meeting continued to fall into silence.

Shi Hao watched the seven for a while, and took the lead to break this opportunity.

"Mr. Mai, is the box office guaranteed for these two films?"

Mai Xiaoyu shook his head: "No one can say anything about the box office before the movie is released."

"How much is Mengren going to invest?"

"Alice in Wonderland" is no less than 60 million U.S. dollars, and "The Wonderland and Wonderland" is no less than 40 million U.S. dollars."

The investment of the two films together is 100 million U.S. dollars, equivalent to about 600 million Chinese yuan.

This number surprised others.

Manager Li questioned: "Mak, your company has 600 million cash for a performance?"

"If you can't take it out, you can take a loan."

That is, with Mengren's brand, as well as company brand, asset scale, asset-liability ratio, etc., as long as they release the wind, some banks and institutions will take the initiative to lend them door-to-door loans.

Luo Xing reminded: "Mr. Mai, you have to think about it. Invest 600 million in a lump sum. In case you lose it, you guys will have troubles."

It's not that the company's total assets are 2 billion, and it doesn't matter if you accompany it with three to five billion.

The total assets of a company include fixed assets, intangible assets, cash assets, etc. Among them, fixed assets account for the bulk, and cash assets are limited. No company will let a lot of idle money lie on its accounts.

Once the cash flow breaks, it will trigger an unpredictable chain reaction, and the impact should not be underestimated.

"Thank you for reminding Mr. Luo that I can still afford to pay for a few hundred million people, and I don't think it will be so miserable."

"What if?"

"Then make money back again. When Mengren was founded a few years ago, it was only a few million dollars in scale and was called a'grass head company' by peers. The investment in the first film was borrowed."

This can be said to be free and easy, but it's not a matter of temperament.

President Han couldn't help it: "Mr. Mai, can't you make some normal movies? You have to be different. It's not a small cost, it's a super big production, or it's not a Western nondescript movie."

Mr. Feng also agrees: "Just like the movie "Twilight", Hualong spent 40 million US dollars to test the water in the first battle. It was just right. You said that you would make a domestic film and dare to invest 100 million US dollars. come back?"

"It's definitely not possible in China, but with the overseas box office, the video tape market, the profits of peripheral products, etc., it should not be difficult to recover the cost." Mai Xiaoyu looked at Ye Xin and paused, "I may not have said clearly about one thing. Although these two films are live-action movies, special effects are one of the biggest selling points. In addition to the American special effects production company, I am also planning to invite Maiye special effects to participate in post-production special effects."

"Hehe. Mr. Mai, what you said is too obvious. Do you think I'm a woman to bully?" Ye Xin laughed twice and lit a cigarette. "For these two movies, does Hualong participate in investment...I Vote for support."

"Mr. Ye!"

"You agree?"

"The reason."

"Just because of your nephew's company?"

Ye Xin smoked a cigarette and said slowly: "Why did we accept Mr. Luo's persuasion in the first place and choose to cooperate with Mengren? Isn’t it because Mengren’s professionalism is fancy? The facts have also proved that Mr. Mai has an extraordinary vision in terms of film and television production. , The cute person is professional enough, I don’t want to miss any more opportunities."

"This time the situation is different, the handwriting is too big." President Li once again questioned, "If it is an American movie, it is okay to say, according to the domestic film box office splitting model, it is easier to recover the cost, but domestic films... Is it a high global box office?"

The box office splitting model of domestic movies in the United States is completely different from that of China.

On China Xia’s side, the share ratio of the theaters is fixed, which leads to a movie’s box office performance. If it does not reach 2.5 times the investment cost, the investor will basically lose money.

But the United States is different.

In the United States, the starting point for the share ratio of theaters is very low. With the release of movies gradually increasing each week, in the United States, the release time of a movie may be as long as three months. The more you get.

If the film has a strong lineup, is a super blockbuster type, has high box office expectations and good box office results after its release, then in the first two or three weeks of the box office, the theater side can only get 10%. Later, as the box office fell, the proportion of theaters' shares gradually increased.

In other words, if the box office of this movie is 100 million in the first week, the investor and the distributor will get 90 million, which is never possible in China.

Of course, this is also related to the relatively mature American film industry, and the source of income for theaters does not rely solely on the box office.

"So what?" Ye Xin flicked the ashes freely, "Who would have thought that there would be current results before "This Man Comes From Earth" was released? Besides, Hualong's funds were originally earned from nothing. It doesn't matter if you throw tens of millions out, right?"

"Anyway, I don't agree!" President Li voted against.

The next moment, there was another yes vote.

Liu Junhao stated: "I agree."

"Old Liu!"

"Old Li, sometimes I need to give it a try, otherwise I will feel that I am old."

"Fart! You, Ronaldinho, and the other three companies have established a company that specializes in the development of film and television peripheral products. Even if the movie is with you, you can make up for the loss through peripheral products!"

"This makes sense. If Hualong participates in the investment, won't it also enjoy the benefits of peripheral products?"

"Huh!" Mr. Li snorted, and pointed his finger at the others, "The four of you, either have cooperation with Mengren, or your children have signed with Mengren. You must agree to it too?"

Seeing that Mr. Li became more and more angry, Mr. Han said: "Old Li, I have no cooperation with Moe Ren, and my daughter has not signed Meng Ren. You can always listen to what I say?"

"you say."

"I also agree with tens of millions of fights."

President Li: "..."

Mai Xiaoyu didn't need to make a statement, it was already a six-to-one situation. Although Mr. Li is always one, the minority obeys the majority ~lightnovelpub.net~ Hualong Pictures will spend 50 million US dollars to invest in two cute films, "Alice in Wonderland" and "Wonderland".

The former invests 30 million yuan, and the latter invests 20 million yuan.

They are not stupid either, they vote more in which movie the cute people cast.

As for the remaining funding gap, it is easy to make up.

Again, in terms of film and television dramas, as long as the cute person speaks, someone inside and outside the entertainment circle will take the initiative to invest money-the box office of "This Man From Earth" is really amazing!

"I don't think you will waste time in meetings and discussions in the future, just let the cute people call the shots!"

President Li threw out these words in a dark face, and took the lead to withdraw from the remote video.

Shi Hao glanced at Mai Xiaoyu again, his eyes flashing with admiration.

This is the first time that Mai Xiaoyu has the right to speak with Hualong Pictures. If successful, the seven shareholders will probably help each other against Sky Sky in the future, as long as Mai Xiaoyu can guarantee them huge benefits.

At the end of the meeting, Liu Junhao turned off the remote video, looked at Mai Xiaoyu who was sitting on the opposite sofa, and asked, "Is it a big deal?"

Mai Xiaoyu has turned off the computer at this moment: "The problem is not big."

"I'm asking Disney over there."

"Then it's even more okay. It's the Yankee tradition to play hooligans."

"Then I'll wait and see." Liu Junhao laughed twice, then asked jokingly, "Isn't this also a task assigned to you by the relevant department?"

Mai Xiaoyu showed an unpredictable smile before he wanted to speak when Yali's phone rang.

Mr. Han is calling.

"Mr. Mai, don't forget Xiaoxue for the two films of your company this time..."
