Entertainment: Taking her daughter out of the house, it is popular on the Internet

Chapter 325 Cooperation negotiation, return to China for interview (seeking monthly ticket for subscription)

After the two exchanged a few pleasantries, Herman said straight to the point: "Mr. Gu, I came to you this time mainly because I am interested in the three superhero comics you produced."

Although these three superhero comics are not well-known overseas, Herman, who can be called Hua Guotong, has long known about them.

And with his professional perspective, he knows that these three superhero comics, if they can be well promoted, can cause a violent sensation all over the world.

When these three comics are popular all over the world, it will definitely be very profitable to make these superheroes into a series of movies.

Gu Chenfeng obviously knew the reason for Herman's visit a long time ago, smiled and said: "Mr. Herman, I believe that when you came to me to talk about this matter, you have already read my three comics, right? ?”

"Yes!" Herman nodded, and said, "I have to say that these three superhero comics are really good, and I believe that with the quality of these comics, as long as they are promoted globally, they will definitely be popular. popular."

Gu Chenfeng said: "Indeed, I am also very confident in my three comics. I don't know what Mr. Herman means by being interested?"

Herman looked into Gu Chenfeng's eyes, trying to see through his thoughts, but unfortunately, he didn't see anything in Gu Chenfeng's eyes.

Originally, Herman thought that such a smart person as Gu Chenfeng must have guessed his purpose, but now he asked such a question, which made Herman a little confused.

After all, he also understands the principle of knowing yourself, knowing your enemy, and winning every battle.

After observing for a few seconds, Herman suddenly smiled and said, "Mr. Gu should be able to guess my purpose!"

"My guess may not be accurate, so Mr. Herman, please speak directly!" Gu Chenfeng smiled and said.

For the top boss in Hollywood like Herman, Gu Chenfeng naturally has to be cautious, not to let the other party see through him, otherwise, he will die without knowing how.

As the old saying goes, you must not have the heart to harm others, but you must have the heart to guard against others.

Don't look at Disney helping a lot with "Inception" this time, but they are also for their own interests. After all, after the movie explodes, Disney can get a considerable profit from it.

Herman was taken aback for a moment, obviously he did not expect Gu Chenfeng to be so sophisticated, and finally he had to truthfully say: "We want to cooperate with Mr. Gu in three comics, and it is best to acquire these three comics."

"Mr. Herman, I don't intend to sell these three comics!" Gu Chenfeng explained apologetically, "As you know, I also run an entertainment company. These three superhero comics are my The idea was to make it into a movie."

"I think that your company bought my comics to make them into a movie later, right?"

Hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, Herman was taken aback for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I admit that the special effects of Mr. Gu's "Inception" are very good, and he has enough funds in his hand to completely make this Three superheroes made into a movie, but..."

Having said that, Herman paused for a moment, looked at Gu Chenfeng with microscopic eyes, and said, "Does Mr. Gu only want these three superheroes to be in Huaguo?"

"As far as I know, even in China, Mr. Gu's Qingchen Entertainment Company is currently only a film production company and does not have its own publicity channels, and I think that whether it is "Iron Man" or "Spider" Comics like The Heroine and The Incredible Hulk should be seen by the whole world."

"In terms of publicity and distribution channels, I think our Disney is still very powerful. As long as Mr. Gu sells these three comics to us, I believe these three superheroes will be popular all over the world."

I have to admit that Herman was quite right.

After all, Gu Chenfeng's Qingchen Entertainment Company is just a film production company. Even in China, it doesn't have its own publicity and distribution channels, let alone global publicity and distribution channels.

Even if Gu Chenfeng makes these three superhero comics into movies in the future, he still has to cooperate with Hollywood giants before they can be released globally.

And at present, these three comics are only very popular in China, and have not yet become popular all over the world. If you want the three comics to appear in front of the global audience, you need publicity and distribution channels.

But what Gu Chenfeng lacks most now is the channel, which is also a very important hurdle for him to go to the world in the future.

If you don’t have a reliable channel, preferably a channel where you can buy shares, then if you want to distribute your movies or other works all over the world, you will be stuck by others.

After some thought, Gu Chenfeng looked at Herman and said, "Mr. Herman, it is impossible to sell these three comics, but we can cooperate."

"How to cooperate?" Herman raised his eyebrows and asked.

Obviously, what he was waiting for was Gu Chenfeng's words. He knew that Gu Chenfeng was not the kind of person who had an eye for money, so the chance of buying these three comics was not high.

If he reached cooperation with Gu Chenfeng on the three superhero comics one step ahead of other Hollywood entertainment companies, Herman's goal would be achieved.

Gu Chenfeng said: "In the Marvel Universe I created, there are not only the current three superheroes, there will be more in the future, and these superheroes will basically make money when they are lined up in movies in the future,"

"What, more than three superheroes?" Herman exclaimed.

He thought it would be great to be able to write three superheroes. After all, Gu Chenfeng's major is acting, not comics, but he didn't expect Gu Chenfeng to say that he has other superheroes.

"Yes!" Gu Chenfeng nodded, and said: "My cooperation method is very simple. I give you the overseas operation rights of these superheroes, and the profits will be divided into [-]-[-]%. Opportunity for Disney to get a stake in the movie."

"Sanqi?" Herman's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it.

He definitely wouldn't think that Gu Chenfeng won the third and Disney won the seventh, that's why he was so shocked.

30%, which is already the lowest share of Disney's Hollywood works, far lower than the share ratio set by the six major Hollywood giants for Huaguo movies.

Although he is very optimistic about these three superhero comics, and is also very interested in Disney's participation in the production of movies in the future, but this ratio is too low, and he has no way to explain it to Disney's board of directors.

"Yes!" Gu Chenfeng nodded, and said: "Mr. Herman, I know you will think that this share ratio is low, but you also know that the superheroes from my Marvel Universe, whether it is quality or storytelling, No matter facing any manga, it is a direct sweep."

"As long as it is announced globally, don't you think it will be popular all over the world?"

For the superheroes of the Marvel universe, Gu Chenfeng has strong confidence. After all, the products produced by the system must be high-quality products.

Facing Gu Chenfeng's question, Herman really didn't know how to answer it, and finally had to say: "I need to communicate with the board of directors about this matter, I can't make the decision myself."

"Okay!" Gu Chenfeng nodded.

At this time, Herman said again: "By the way, Mr. Gu, according to the current word-of-mouth and popularity of "Inception", the global box office is likely to break into the top ten in the global box office, and we will hold a celebration party at that time. I don't know if you are free to come and participate?"

Although the cooperation was not directly finalized this time, Herman still valued Gu Chenfeng, a very talented Chinese actor, otherwise, he would not have come to see him in person.

Gu Chenfeng thought for a while and said with a smile: "Let's see the global box office when the time comes. If it's really good, I'll bring the crew to participate. If it's too bad, we won't be ashamed."

After Gu Chenfeng chatted with Herman for more than two hours, Herman left.

After Herman left, Gu Chenfeng was about to go to the restaurant to have something to eat, when he received a video call from Luo Qingcheng.

After connecting to the video, Luo Qingcheng said: "Husband, just now the editor-in-chief of Qidian Literature Network called me and said that the book "Harry Potter" has begun to spread overseas, and the effect is better than they expected. , I want to ask if we want to publish a physical book."

Now, apart from going to work every day to treat illnesses and save lives, and taking care of Tangtang after get off work, Luo Qingcheng also has one more job, which is the operation of the "Harry Potter" author account, and she will receive calls from the website from time to time.

Even people at Qidian Literature.com think she is the author of the "Harry Potter" that is popular all over the world.

Gu Chenfeng smiled and said: "My wife, I think it's okay to publish the physical book, what do you think?"

"Of course I agree, don't I want to ask you what you mean first?" Luo Qingcheng said with a smile on his face: "By the way, husband, the website will ask again, when will you release a new book, they will be afraid You went to another website."

In fact, Luo Qingcheng and Wang Yao are also waiting for Gu Chenfeng to publish a new book, but they both know that Gu Chenfeng has been busy with movies, so they are embarrassed to ask.

It just so happened that people from Qidian Literature.com had been asking about this, so Luo Qingcheng asked.

Gu Chenfeng thought for a while, and said, "Tell them, if I publish a new book, it will definitely be on their website, so they can rest assured. Now let's finish the book "Harry Potter" first."

"Now "Harry Potter" is very popular, what else should I do?" Luo Qingcheng asked very puzzled.

In her opinion, this novel has already become popular abroad, isn't that enough?

Gu Chenfeng said with a smile: "Honey, I plan to make this book into a movie in the future, but the overseas fan base is still too small, and it is not enough to make the movie popular in the future." .”

Regarding Luo Qingcheng, Gu Chenfeng would never hide anything.

Hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, although Luo Qingcheng was a little surprised, he didn't ask any more questions. Gu Chenfeng must be a professional in movies, so what Luo Qingcheng can do is support, unconditional support.

"Okay, I'll tell them!" Luo Qingcheng replied, and then asked: "Honey, when will you come back, I... Tangtang misses you."

As Gu Chenfeng became more and more outstanding, Luo Qingcheng had been urged many times by her parents to ask her to quickly have a child of her own with Gu Chenfeng, but she didn't know why.

Both of them are quite normal in every aspect of their bodies, but they are not pregnant.

Gu Chenfeng smiled and said: "I should be able to go back tomorrow. I originally planned to go back today. I just met with the CEO of Disney, so I was delayed."

Regarding the follow-up promotion of "Inception", Gu Chenfeng plans to hand over all of them to Zhuo Le and the others.

After all, the word-of-mouth of this movie has come out now, and there are already so many bigwigs in the circle helping to promote it, no matter whether it is domestic or overseas, there is no need to worry at all.

Hearing that Gu Chenfeng was coming back tomorrow, Luo Qingcheng said happily: "Okay, then I'll go buy the vegetables tomorrow and wait for you to come back."

"Aren't you going to work tomorrow?" Gu Chenfeng asked in surprise.

Luo Qingcheng smiled and said: "Tomorrow is the weekend, I plan to call your parents and my parents over tomorrow, and have a meal together, what do you think?"

"I completely agree with my wife's arrangement, then I will go back early tomorrow morning, and I should be home in the evening." Gu Chenfeng replied.

Luo Qingcheng nodded and said, "Okay, we'll wait for you to go home and finish eating."

It took twelve hours to fly back from the Lighthouse Country. After hanging up the video, Gu Chenfeng sent a message to Zhang Qingqing, asking her to book the earliest flight back to China tomorrow morning.

After receiving the news from Gu Chenfeng, Zhang Qingqing booked a flight ticket online at [-]:[-] tomorrow morning without saying a word.

She knew that Gu Chenfeng was in such a hurry to go back because he must have missed his beautiful wife and Tangtang at home.

That night, Zhuo Le, Wu Jin, Reba and others who participated in the talk show all returned to the hotel.

After returning to the hotel, Wu Jin said to Gu Chenfeng: "Chenfeng, Director Zhuo is very good, and he answered very well at the interview site today!"

"Can you understand?" Gu Chenfeng joked.

Wu Jin rolled his eyes angrily, and said, "I don't see the reaction of the audience?"

At this time, Reba also said: "Director Zhuo did really well this time. The host dug so many holes, but he didn't even step on them, and he passed it perfectly."

Hearing Reba's words, Gu Chenfeng glanced at Zhuo Le, who was complacent, and said lightly: "You must not praise him, he will be proud, he will pretend to be aggressive, and you will regret it at that time. "

It turned out that when Zhuo Le took Wu Jin and the others to participate in the interview, since Gu Chenfeng didn't go, Zhuo Le naturally became the leader.

After all, he is the chief director of "Inception".

The host asked: "Mr. Zhuo, "Inception" has completely used "Chi You God of War", which is also a Chinese film, as a stepping stone according to the current interesting facts. Don't you think it's a bit unfair to do so? "

Zhuo Le chuckled, and replied: "We have never used "Chi You God of War" as a stepping stone, we are all Chinese movies, we are just making progress together, and have no other ideas."

The host said: "But I heard that you and Chen Gang, the director of the movie "Chi You God of War", made a big bet on the performance of these two movies. Whoever loses will quit the movie circle, that's it. ?"

"At that time, we did have a gamble, but according to the teacher, our goal has never been it, but the global box office rankings."

"What Mr. Zhuo means is, how many places will "Inception" hit the global box office rankings? Will it be the champion?"

"Of course we also hope that is the case, but the current result is obviously impossible, but if we hit the top ten, we should still have a chance."

"If the global box office of "Inception" really breaks into the top ten, do you think this means that Huaguo movies have begun to catch up with Hollywood movies?"

Hearing this question, Zhuo Le shook his head and said: "First of all, I think you shouldn't compare Huaguo movies with Hollywood movies. Nowadays, the focus of filming is cooperative release, just like our "Inception" , there are not only actors from Huaguo, but also actors from Hollywood."

"Although most of the post-production teams are from Huaguo, there are also some special effects teams from Hollywood. They all cooperate very well. I believe that filming in the future must be an international act, not a Talk about movies from a certain place or a certain country.”

"In the past few decades, the reason why Hollywood films have been able to dominate the world film market is not only because it is the Hollywood of the lighthouse country, but also because it is the Hollywood of the whole world."

After hearing Zhuo Le's answer, the audience on the spot gave warm applause.

This is why Wu Jin would praise Zhuo Le in front of Gu Chenfeng after returning to the hotel.

But this made Reba very surprised. He thought to himself, is this the domestic Wang Zhuole who only pretends to be aggressive? Why does he seem to be a different person when he arrives in Hollywood, answering questions is so impeccable.

However, this is just the beginning. Later, Zhuo Le answered the host's questions quite well.

When the host asked Zhuo Le whether the future of movies was in China or in Hollywood.

Zhuo Le replied without hesitation: "Of course it is in Huaguo."

Hearing Zhuo Le's answer, the host showed a smile, and said, "Mr. Zhuo, aren't you afraid of causing dissatisfaction among movie fans when you said on Lighthouse TV that the future of movies is in China?"

Zhuo Le replied: "I believe that everyone is a wise person. As long as you think about it a little bit, you will agree with me, so I am just stating a fact."

The host asked, "Why?"

Zhuo Le replied: "The film market in Huaguo is now in a booming stage, and Huaguo is the second largest box office in the world. Everyone has to admit this!"

"Furthermore, China has a population of 16 billion, and the middle class has reached 7 million. It doesn't seem too much for each person to spend a few hundred dollars a year to watch movies!"

"With the economic development of Huaguo, more and more people will become middle class in the future. At that time, the box office of Huaguo's film market will definitely increase sharply, so I firmly believe that Huaguo will be the focus of future movies. .”

"Because the middle class in our country far surpasses Europe and the United States, the market determines the development direction of all industries. There should be nothing wrong with this sentence."

···
In the hotel, after hearing Reba recount the host's questions and Zhuo Le's answers, Gu Chenfeng's eyes widened and he looked at Zhuo Le with an expression of disbelief.

It was really hard for him to believe that this was what Zhuo Le could answer, and he never thought that Zhuo Le could be so calm when facing the reporter.

However, Gu Chenfeng did not praise Zhuo Le, because he knew that this guy had already been praised by so many people, and if he praised him again, he would definitely go to heaven.

So Gu Chenfeng said to Wu Jin and Reba: "By the way, I am planning to return to China tomorrow, and you will stay here to cooperate with Disney's promotional activities."

"Ah?" Hearing that Gu Chenfeng was going back to China, Wu Jin, Zhuo Le, and Reba all exclaimed at the same time.

They never expected that Gu Chenfeng would return to China at this time. This is a good opportunity to enter the world film market. He will return to China so soon, and he has not participated in any promotion yet.

Seeing the expressions of the three of them, Gu Chenfeng said, "Don't be so surprised, it's not the first time I've come here, and it definitely won't be the last time, so for me, it's better to leave these promotions to you guys. "

At this time, Reba seemed to have thought of something, and said to Gu Chenfeng: "Mr. Gu, you are going back to accompany... accompany Tangtang!"

She almost blurted out Luo Qingcheng's name, but fortunately she changed her words at a critical moment.

Gu Chenfeng smiled and didn't refute, it was a tacit agreement.

Upon hearing this, Wu Jin said, "Then I'll go back with you, anyway, I can't understand foreign languages, and when I do publicity, I just show my face, it's of no use at all."

This is true, who made his foreign language proficiency not good?

Reba originally wanted to say that he would go back with him, but Gu Chenfeng was the first to say: "Reba stays here to promote with Director Zhuo, if we all go back, Disney will definitely think we are not enough Pay attention to."

"Okay!" Reba replied reluctantly, pouting.

She also wants to go back, she feels safe following Gu Chenfeng and Wu Jin, following Zhuo Le?

I'm afraid I won't be beaten to death.

Of course, Gu Chenfeng had already thought of everything she could think of, so before leaving, he hired two female bodyguards for Reba to ensure Reba's safety.

After all, the Beacon Country is not like in China, where law and order are very good. When celebrity artists go out, at most, they are surrounded by fans and ask for a group photo and signature. But in the Beacon Country, a beautiful woman like Reba may have some people with ulterior motives.

Gu Chenfeng didn't want to ruin Reba because of the movie "Inception".

So he thought very carefully. He not only hired two female bodyguards for Reba, but also called Disney CEO Herman, saying that Reba would stay in the Lighthouse Country for up to three days and cooperate with the publicity. Ba will return home.

After everything was arranged, it was six o'clock the next morning.

Gu Chenfeng, Wu Jin, and Zhang Qingqing boarded the domestic flight.

After twelve hours of flying, the plane landed slowly on the runway of Jinshi International Airport.

As soon as the three of them came out of the airport, they were surrounded by a large group of media reporters.

Gu Chenfeng was not surprised by this, because Zhang Qingqing deliberately released this news, mainly to maintain the popularity of "Inception".

"Mr. Gu, Brother Jin, welcome back to China. The global box office of "Inception" has reached 15.5 billion, and it has successfully entered the top [-] box office in the world. How do you feel now?"

Hearing the reporter's question, Gu Chenfeng shrugged his shoulders and said: "My friend from the reporter, this is just about to enter the top [-]. I really don't have any special feelings. Before the goal is reached, we will not Any slack."

"Mr. Gu, I heard that "Inception" is going to hit the top ten in the global box office rankings. Is that true?"

"My goal is indeed to hit the top ten. As for whether I can achieve it, I will leave it to the market to decide. After all, people always have dreams in life. What if I see... what if it comes true?" Gu Chenfeng replied.

At this time, Wu Jin next to him touched Gu Chenfeng, and said: "Chenfeng is a public place, pay attention to your image, if you see a ghost in broad daylight, it will be over."

"Pfft!"

"Hahaha!"

When the media reporters at the scene heard Wu Jin's words, they all burst into laughter.

Another reporter asked: "Mr. Gu, whether it is the word-of-mouth score or the box office performance in the first week, "Inception" has far surpassed "Chi You God of War". If you really win in the end, then you will Has supervisor Chen Gang quit the film industry?"

Hearing this question, Gu Chenfeng frowned, and said: "My friend, what you said is suspected of being provocative. As I said before, the goal of "Inception" has never been to make a big Comparing to the director, as for the gamble, it is just a matter between him and director Zhuo, if you ask me, I'm sure it's hard to say!"

Regarding his answer, many media reporters were slandering him.

As far as the relationship between you and Chen Gang is concerned, is it still necessary for us to provoke you?
Of course, everyone just thought about it in their hearts and didn't say it out loud.

"Mr. Gu, "Inception" has achieved a good score of 15.5 billion US dollars in the world in just one week of its release. Is there anything else you want to say to the fans?"

Gu Chenfeng nodded and said: "What I want to say is that our movies are still made for fans in the final analysis. The owner of the movie is the fans. If you say yes, it is really good. If you say no, then it is our actors. , filmmaker's failure."

"I'm very happy that "Inception" can get the support of fans and friends, and thank you for your support."

"Mr. Gu, many movie fans have heard that you are going to hit the top of the global box office rankings. Everyone wants to increase the box office of "Inception" by booking the show. What do you think about this?"

Hearing this question, Gu Chenfeng immediately widened his eyes and asked: "Who is it? Please put away this kind of thinking, thank you, although I know that everyone is doing this to let "Inception" be released as soon as possible. into the top ten."

"But I don't agree with this method. The box office is like a contest. If you win, you must win openly, and if you lose, you must be open and aboveboard. The act of booking the venue is like a cheat. Even if you win in the end, you will think about it later. It makes people feel very uncomfortable, and there is a feeling of invincibility, so I hope everyone will not waste this money."

"Even if "Inception" doesn't break into the top ten this time, it doesn't matter, please believe me, I will be able to make other movies in the future to continue hitting the global box office rankings."

"it is good!"

"Pretty!"

"Clap clap clap!"

Hearing Gu Chenfeng's domineering declaration, the media reporters applauded one after another.
