From traffic to movie star

Chapter 387 Released worldwide, 72 countries!
The box office of "Ghost Baby" was 3100 million in the first week, which is actually not low compared to the R-rated movie market.

But don't forget, when this movie was first released, it had too many more schedules than "Chain Saw". Shown in the show.

But on the fourth day of its release, "Chain Saw" had a single-day box office of 1400 million, and then began a fierce pursuit of "Ghost Baby".

In just four days, at the end of the first week, "Chain Saw" directly blew the box office of "Ghost Baby" thanks to its strong word of mouth!

At this time, it was just four days since Baldwin mocked the Chinese people on Facebook.

Four days, overturned.

It's that fast!
It’s no wonder that many netizens in Huaxia can’t wait to blow Wei Xun into the sky during this period. In just 20 days, a movie conquered Hollywood, topped the box office in the United States, and even slapped Baldwin, who looked down on Huaxia people. , Just ask who else besides him?

It's so handsome that it doesn't make sense!
Baldwin hasn't even updated his new status during this period, so when "Saw" came out at the box office in the first week, a large number of Chinese people flooded into his account homepage and launched a counterattack.

"Don't say anything, just call Dad."

"I'm just asking if your face hurts? Huaxia people's movies are now blowing up your movies from word of mouth to box office. What right do you have to be arrogant? The rubbish area is black."

"I thought you were still dreaming about getting Director Wei to pay you back the money, 1000 million is nothing, but congratulations to you for having an extra 13 billion dad."

"Did Baldwin call Dad on Facebook today, no."

How arrogant Baldwin was back then is how embarrassing he is now.

Not only Chinese netizens are spouting, but even in the United States, from netizens to the media, everyone is watching Baldwin's jokes.

At that time, everyone said that Baldwin got lucky and cheated 1000 million US dollars from the Chinese people who are stupid and rich. Now it seems that he is not stupid at all, he is still a real person!

But what is embarrassing is that Baldwin never gave the slightest response on Facebook.

However, Chinese netizens are not in a hurry. After all, "Saw" and "Ghost Baby" have not yet been completely released. When the total box office is released, some of them will be embarrassing for Baldwin.

Why are you so sure?

Because of the successful turnaround in four days, "Saw", which has exploded in both word-of-mouth and box office, has obviously become the hottest movie in the United States at the end of this summer. In the current off-season of movies, without the suppression of Hollywood blockbusters, "Saw" is simply unstoppable!
When the country was full of carnival because of the performance of "Chain Saw", and the United States was also enveloped by this horror movie, Wei Xun took Kang Cheng together to meet with the general manager of GM James Bill at the headquarters of GM in Hollywood.

The person who facilitated the interview between the two parties was Gorchoman.

It's amazing to say that this is the first time Wei Xun and Gorjoman met, but when they saw each other in Gaomei's reception room, the two of them didn't feel any strangeness.

Because of this summer, they have already become 'telephone friends'.

"Hey, Wei. Although Tchaifusky told me that you are young, I still didn't expect you to be so young, as amazing as your talent."

As a member of the fighting race, the Russian Gore Joman is tall and tall. He warmly and excitedly gave Wei Xun a big hug, then turned to look at GM General Manager James Bill, and said with a smile: "James , he is Wei, the director of "Saw", a very talented Chinese, and an old friend I haven't known for long."

An old friend I haven't known for long.

This description is very interesting.

"Gor Joman, you look great. It seems that you have been recuperating very well recently." Wei Xun reached out and hammered Gore Joman on the shoulder, and then took the initiative to greet James Bill: "Bill Sir, nice to meet you."

"Hi, Wei. Your "Chain Saw" is really popular recently. I have also watched it. I have to say that you are a genius. This movie is really amazing."

James Bill signaled everyone to take their seats in the reception room, and then said with a smile: "I heard from Georgioman that you want to use GM's channel to let "Chain Saw" be released globally?"

Therefore, in the business field, it still depends on personal connections.

With Georgioman as a bridge, Wei Xun can talk directly with the general manager of Gaomei, and the other party does not practice Tai Chi, so the opening is straight to the point.

Of course, the most fundamental reason is that the explosive word-of-mouth and box office of "Saw" gave Wei Xun the capital to cooperate with GM.

When "Saw" was unknown a week ago, James Bill would not have met Wei Xun so easily to discuss cooperation.

"Correct."

Wei Xun said with a smile: "Actually, which movie doesn't want to go through the global release channel of GM, one of the six Hollywood giants?"

Hearing the praise of the young Chinese director, a smile appeared in James Beale's eyes, but soon, the smile was replaced by slyness, he said: "But people only see global channels, but they never know the high-level channels. How much energy and money did Mei spend to get through these channels. If "Saw" wants to be released through Gaomei's channel, I think you may have to pay [-]% of the box office price."

Twenty percent.

This opening is asking for a sky-high price, which is really dark enough.

It seems that this gringo is a typical smiling tiger. He is polite on the surface, but he is not polite at all when he asks for money.

But it’s no wonder that James Bill dared to ask for such a price. After all, Wei Xun is a Chinese, unable to open up global market channels, and has a grudge against the Golden Lion. Agreed, if you walk out of the gate of GM, maybe you will be slaughtered even harder by other film companies in Hollywood.

Gore Joman looked at James Bill so ruthlessly as soon as he spoke, and sighed in his heart, but he didn't say anything after all.

Business is business, and friends are friends. At this time, he can't help anyone.

"Twenty percent?" Wei Xun smiled and said, "Yes."

Kang Cheng, who was sitting next to Wei Xun, was a little anxious. This foreigner obviously set the price on the ground. Although he was already ready to be slaughtered after joining Gaomei, he couldn't even pay the price. Agreed!

Hearing that Wei Xun agreed so happily, James Bill was also very surprised.

Obviously, he was waiting for Wei Xun to bargain.

Unexpectedly, Wei Xun directly agreed.

"I guess, if the rest of the Hollywood movies go through the channel of Gaomei, they will definitely not pay such a high price of [-]%. But this is the first time that Gaomei and I have cooperated, of course we have to show our sincerity. "Chain Saw" The United States is exploding, and what is certain is that its global box office will not be far behind."

Seeing the astonishment on James Bill's face, Wei Xun said with a smile: "I can shoot a "Chain Saw" that hit the United States, and then I can make even more popular movies. Chinese people pay attention to making friends. After working together on this film, Mr. Bill and I have become friends. When my friend has a new movie to be released in the future, I think Mr. Bill will definitely entertain me as a friend."

Hearing this, Kang Cheng, who was anxious, calmed down.

Geor Qiaoman looked at Wei Xun in surprise.

James Bill praised: "Now I finally understand why Baldwin was able to lose so badly in your hands."

Using [-]% ​​of the global box office of "Saw" just to make friends with Gaomei Company, such courage has to be admired.

"But I hope that Mr. Bill won't treat me like a fool. I don't want to give up the [-]% of the profit so easily."

Wei Xun said with a smile: "I need the global release channel of "Chain Saw" to be released according to the specifications of the GM grade A film, and there are at least three first-line Hollywood international directors, and three Oscar Academy voters to come forward for "Saw" Endorsement of "Chain Saw". When "Chain Saw" is released globally, no matter which language it is translated into, there must be Chinese characters on the promotional posters to announce to people all over the world that this is a movie made by Chinese people. "

When Kang Cheng next to him heard Wei Xun's request, his nose felt sore and his eyes turned red.

For this day, Chinese filmmakers have been looking forward to it for too long.

Therefore, for Wei Xun, making money from "Chain Saw" is secondary. Using this film to open up the film market in Hollywood, the United States, and even the world, and to establish a confidence and role model for Chinese filmmakers is the most important thing. the goal of!
Hearing Wei Xun's request, James Bill thought for a moment, nodded and said, "I can promise you."

As a result, the two parties quickly signed a power of attorney for the global screening of "Chain Saw".

Because they paid enough profits, GM was very efficient. A week later, James Bill informed Wei Xun that "Saw" will be released in 72 countries around the world.

This exciting news spread back to the country, and the entire Chinese Internet cheered!
