How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 18 A small request

From producer to agent?
It's not a profession anymore.

Whether this horse has been promoted or demoted, whether he should congratulate or not, the president of Twentieth Century Fox, Odo Ryder, is a little confused.

"Then this plaster?" Odo Ryder, the president of [-]th Century Fox, asked in confusion.

These words stumped Zhang Nan and Old Luke.

It can't be said that he was beaten by the vice president of Disney, although it was old Luke's brother-in-law.

Fortunately, old Luke is worthy of being an old driver, so he immediately replied cheekily: "I got injured for filming [Jingcheng Wuguan]."

What I said was like an injury caused by filming.

Of course, Old Luke's words cannot be said to be lies, but the truth is also pitifully small.

It was indeed to film the injuries suffered by [Jingcheng Wuguan].

But it was not an accidental injury during filming. It was caused by old Luke blasting his brother-in-law’s small coffers for the filming of [Jingcheng Martial Art Museum].

However, it is inconvenient to discuss the causal relationship here with Odo Ryder, President of Twentieth Century Fox.

Sure enough, the president of [-]th Century Fox, Odo Ryder, interpreted the meaning of this sentence as being injured during filming, and put on an admiration on his face.

But I was thinking in my heart: Is the risk of making kung fu movies so high now?Even the producers are in danger?
If Zhang Nan knew what Twentieth Century Fox CEO Oddo Ryder was thinking, he would definitely reply: It’s not that the current Kung Fu movies are so risky that the producers can be injured.Therefore, the old Luke's fraud and whistle-blowing operation is highly risky.

According to old Luke's operation, no matter what kind of film he is shooting, the risk is actually high.

But fortunately, Old Luke only has one brother-in-law, and his brother-in-law only has a small coffers. At present, it seems that Old Luke will not come a second time.

After a little greeting, the three of them took their seats.

After some heated chatting, [-]th Century Fox President Odo Ryder slowly turned the topic to project cooperation.

"Zhang, Twentieth Century Fox is very interested in kung fu movies, especially your kung fu movie project. As long as you nod, money is not a problem."

Zhang Nan was dazzled by the attitude of not short of money as soon as he opened his mouth.

But Zhang Nan also knew that the other party was not bragging.

Twentieth Century Fox in the 90s, because of the close cooperation with the director of the [Star Wars] series George Lucas, released and invested in the [Star Wars] main story trilogy, the accumulated strength is really strong, indeed Have this confidence.

And regardless of the previous glory of [-]th Century Fox.

In July this year, the A-level big production produced and distributed by 7th Century Fox - "Independence Day" will be released, and it will hit 8.17 million US dollars in the world, creating another glories.

Don't look at it compared with the box office of those movies with billions or billions in later generations, it seems to be less interesting.

But it's only 1996!
You must know that the career masterpiece of the great director Spielberg, "Jurassic Park", which made Hollywood movies completely conquer the world, only hit a box office of more than 9 million U.S. dollars, which is almost worth a billion dollars.

The global box office of more than 8 million U.S. dollars is basically a sky-shattering result.

Although [Independence Day] Zhang Nan can't catch it, after all, it will be released in July, and now it's April, and the filming has already been finished.

But it doesn't matter, Zhang Nan's goal is not "Independence Day", but "Titanic", which has a stronger box office.

The North American box office is more than 6 million (equivalent to more than 40 billion RMB), and the global box office is 18 billion US dollars (equivalent to more than 140 billion RMB)

As long as it catches up, it will have a box office appeal of more than 9 million US dollars, which is equivalent to an "Independence Day".

"President Otto, I really want to cooperate with your company.

But you may not be aware that I graduated from the dubbing department, and immediately joined Disney to work after graduation, and I haven’t left my job until now.

[Jingcheng Wuguan] This movie was successfully released with the great help of Disney, so my next movie, Disney's investment, I can't refuse. "

What Zhang Nan said was sincere, and his words were full of gratitude to Disney. Hearing the smile on the face of [-]th Century Fox President Odo Ryder, he was envious of Disney in his heart.

How did Disney catch up with such a good thing about stepping on a horse?

Recruit a voice actor employee, not only can dub, but also screenwriter, director and kung fu, starred in a movie with an investment of 500 million, and the box office also took off.

Why couldn't [-]th Century Fox encounter this kind of pie in the sky?

Why don't the company try to recruit people from the dubbing department this year?
Ok, deal.

It might be missed.

500 million has changed to more than [-] million, and it is nothing to recruit a few more people.

"Of course, I understand very well."

After listening to Zhang Nan's words, Oddo Ryder, president of Twentieth Century Fox, looked as he should, and praised:
"But Mr. Zhang, as the screenwriter, director, and starring role of [Jingcheng Wuguan], and now the movie is so successful, in the next movie, Disney must respect your opinion.

Moreover, film investment does not mean that fire and water are incompatible.

Sometimes it is a good thing to have more investors, whether it is for the film, the investors, or yourself. "

As for the relationship between Zhang Nan and Disney, after the [Jingcheng Martial Art Museum] exploded at the box office, he asked someone to find out.

So when he came this time, he didn't have the intention of being able to monopolize all the investment in Zhang Nan's next movie, but just wanted to participate in the investment of his next movie.

As for whether this can be achieved, the president of [-]th Century Fox, Oddo Ryder, is still certain.

Hollywood has been around for so many years, all the directors and leading actors who are popular.

In order to ensure their own status and right to speak in the film crew, and also to prevent the sole investor from appearing as a monopoly.

They will find several more investors to form a balanced situation and share risks.

Since Zhang Nan agreed to meet with him to discuss cooperation, he must have the idea of ​​cooperation in his heart. Oddo-Ryder felt that he should have a certain share of the investment share of Zhang Nanxia's film.

It's just that... he also has to pay something.

After all, the reason why people chose him must be for something.

But no matter what Zhang Nan wanted, Odo Ryder felt that as long as it was not too outrageous, he could accept it.

After all, the [Jingcheng Wuguan] project is really too profitable.

"Forehead……"

Zhang Nan pretended to think for a while, then pretended to be persuaded, and said: "You have convinced me, but I have a small request, I wonder if you can agree?"

　I'm coding, it's the afternoon of April 4th, and I've coded to Chapter 11
