Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1636 Strong Shake

Regarding Lin Daoqiu's visit, Jason Green knew very well what the other party came to him for.

Although Jason Green admires Lin Daoqiu very much, and he is also half of Lin Daoqiu's fan, he has watched the movie "Godzilla" many times, and even bought a video tape to go back.

It's just that even if Jason Green has a good impression of Lin Daoqiu, it is impossible for RT Cinema to provide him with a large number of screens.

If Lin Daoqiu had come to talk to him about this matter a year earlier, Jason Green felt that the two parties might still have the possibility of cooperation, but it is too late now.

When the secretary invited Lin Daoqiu in from the outside, as soon as Lin Daoqiu entered, he saw Jason Green bypassing the desk and standing there waiting for his arrival.

"Mr. Green, thank you for taking the time to see me."

Jason Green smiled and shook hands with Lin Daoqiu.

"Mr. Lin is too polite. Your deeds in Hollywood can be described as miracles. In fact, I have met you a long time ago, but I have never had a chance. Please come here."

Inviting Lin Daoqiu to sit down in the sofa area, Jason Green even poured Lin Daoqiu a glass of water himself.

Unlike Chris Wolff, the enthusiasm shown by Jason Green is not pretending, at least Lin Daoqiu can see the sincerity of the other party from his eyes.

It's just that Lin Daoqiu is also very clear that it is very difficult to convince the other party when he comes to see Jason Green this time.

It's not just a matter of profit, unless MGM can guarantee that it will produce at least [-] movies a year, then it can fill RT's schedule.

But even if you think about it, you know that this is impossible. After all, this is not Xiangjiang, and the issue of income must also be considered.

Unless the large studio system is restarted and streamlined operations are carried out, then it is possible to provide a stable film source to the other party.

However, the large studio system has been proven to be an unfeasible system. If Lin Daoqiu insists on doing this, he will only suffer a crushing defeat in the end.

"I believe that Mr. Green should have guessed why I came to see you today."

Jason Green nodded with a smile. When he learned of Lin Daoqiu's visit, he could probably guess what the purpose of Lin Daoqiu's visit was.

"Mr. Lin, to tell you the truth, you are a filmmaker I respect very much, but I believe you should also be very clear that MGM is not the only partner of RT Cinemas. If you want me to help you, There's nothing I can do."

Jason Green was honest, and he didn't need to lie about this kind of thing, because it was so obvious that it couldn't be hidden from anyone.

Lin Daoqiu appreciated Jason Green's honesty. He didn't beat around the bush to express his difficulties, or answer himself with other perfunctory words. This was at least a good start.

"What if it's MGM Plus Universal?"

In addition to owning MGM, Lin Daoqiu also has the support of Universal Pictures behind him, but only Langmeyer knows how strong the support is.

But at this time, Universal Pictures is a card that Lin Daoqiu can show. At least it is useful to persuade Jason Green, but I don't know how useful it is.

It's a pity that Jason Green shook his head without even thinking about it.

"I'm sorry, RT theaters have to get at least 24 movies every year, except for the share of cooperation with independent film companies. Mr. Lin thinks MGM and Universal can supply us with 24 movies a year. ?”

Lin Daoqiu also shook his head. Although he didn't know about Universal, it would be great if MGM could make ten movies a year.

In Lin Daoqiu's plan, MGM will produce about six to eight films a year, with shooting time ranging from a few months to a few years, and the amount of investment varies.

Like "1992", Lin Daoqiu's plan would take at least two to three years to shoot, which cannot be counted in the 86 share.

And the current example of "Rush Hour" and "Life of Dawn" being released together can only be said to be a special exception, and it will never become the norm, and it is almost impossible to have the possibility of a second appearance.

"In this case, I don't think we have anything to talk about. It's not that I won't help you, but you should be very clear about these situations."

Jason Green felt that when he said this, Lin Daoqiu should have understood and understood what he meant, and it was just a waste of time to continue talking.

"If MGM can provide RT theaters with fifteen films a year, I wonder if MGM's priority in RT theaters can be adjusted to the highest?"

Fifteen movies a year?This is just a joke. If it is the two companies of Paramount and Fox, Jason Green may still think it is possible.

"Mr. Lin is not joking, is it? Is it possible that you plan to increase the filming plan of MGM to fifteen films a year in the future?"

Jason Green couldn't believe that Lin Daoqiu was so crazy. What he was even worried about was that among Lin Daoqiu's [-] movies, there might only be one or two blockbuster movies, and the rest were low-budget and low-cost movies.

If that's the case, then he is just using this kind of words to deceive himself, and then achieve what he wants to achieve.

"To be honest with Mr. Green, MGM plans to shoot six to eight films a year, and the shooting time varies from a few months to a few years."

Originally, Jason Green thought that Lin Daoqiu would find a way to quibble, but he didn't expect that since he told the truth to himself again, what was this guy thinking?
"In addition to the films produced and distributed by MGM itself, I will invest in independent production companies, and they will be responsible for producing the films and MGM will distribute them."

Lin Daoqiu never thought of letting MGM produce fifteen movies a year, but he can use the method of investing in independent production companies to let them help him make movies.

Jason Green didn't expect that Lin Daoqiu would come up with such a method. Compared with his company producing [-] movies a year, if it were replaced by someone else, this approach would not be able to guarantee the quality of the movie.

But if this person is Lin Daoqiu, then I'm afraid it will be a different matter.

"The income of "Godzilla" in RT theaters alone has exceeded your income in the previous year and a half. In the future, MGM will release many blockbuster films like "Godzilla". What should I do? Mr. Green should make an accurate judgment."

If Jason Green's will was very firm before, he didn't think that the meeting with Lin Daoqiu today would be able to convince him.

But after chatting with Lin Daoqiu like this, Jason Green, who was still very firm, had a strong shake in his heart at this time.
