Chapter 537 Strong Attitude
Chapter 537 Strong Attitude
The Canadian town of Hope is very remote. If the environment here is not very suitable for the shooting of "First Blood", it should be a very quiet and quiet place.
Since the crew of "First Blood" arrived here two years ago, the town has become lively. Every day you can hear bursts of gunshots, and then the calls of ambulances every now and then. When I was filming, I didn’t know what kind of military exercises were going on here, because people in police uniforms could be seen coming in and out from time to time.
This morning, the town became even more lively. Before dawn, there were more than a dozen cars parked in the central square of the town. The people who got out of the cars were all rich or expensive characters. This can be seen from their Guessing from the outfits of the black-clothed men around him, they should be bodyguards or something, right?
In a restaurant in a small town, the five Hollywood giants who came overnight were eating breakfast.
Kerkorian, the king of gambling in Las Vegas, USA, was smoking a cigar and eating a hard-to-drink breakfast. He didn't eat a lot, but a piece of steak that was grilled medium-rare, with a lot of blood on it.
Kerkorian took a puff of his cigar, then picked up a fork and stuffed the steak into his mouth to chew. This kind of eating caused the other four giants present to frown frequently.
Kerkorian shrugged innocently and said, "Hell, the steak in this place is really bad."
Langmeyer ate the sandwich, thinking that the food in this place was really difficult to enjoy, and that oriental boy hid in such a place, was he looking for guilt?
After a while, Wang Xiaohu yawned and pushed open the door of the restaurant. When the five giants turned around and saw him, all ten pairs of eyes shone brightly, just like a hungry ghost seeing a piece of delicious food.
"Hi, Tiger, you're finally here!" The gambling king was the first to react when the other four were stupefied, rubbing greasy clothes on his expensive suit, going up to give Wang Xiaohu a hug to express his enthusiasm .
"NONONO." Wang Xiaohu stopped him and said, "I don't like this, let's shake hands!"
Kerkorian's face changed slightly, and the bodyguards behind him wanted to rush over when they saw this, but Wang Xiaohu stared back coldly, and he smiled and said to Kerkorian, "Dude, do you want to fight? "
"No, of course not. Everyone knows that you are Bruce Lee's brother, and your Chinese Kungfu is amazing." Kerkorian smiled awkwardly. To be the king of gambling in Las Vegas, Kerkorian Kerian has some influence in the American gangsters. He knows this oriental boy very well. Others may not know it, but he knows very well that although Wang Xiaohu is not very strong, he is a character who can defeat Japanese karate masters. . (The mafia and the yakuza are also linked.)
The bodyguard behind Kerkorian locked his eyes on Wang Xiaohu's right hand, and he found a thick callus there. Obviously, he is also a master of guns.
"Tiger, what do you want to eat? The steak here is not bad." Kerkorian said.
Seeing this, the other four giants also stood up to greet Wang Xiaohu and invited him to sit at the dining table for breakfast.
Wang Xiaohu sat beside Kerkorian with a smile, looked at the five giants and said, "How is it? I didn't lie to you, the scenery of Hope Town is really beautiful."
Beautiful shit!The five giants cursed in their hearts, if it wasn't for signing the agency contract of "Mythology", they wouldn't come to such a shitty place. You have to know how bad the breakfast here is, how bad the weather here is. As cold as you want.
But everyone tacitly said that the scenery here is very beautiful and something against their will. Everyone knew that this ancestor could not be offended at this time.
Everyone exchanged pleasantries for a long time before Wang Xiaohu said, "Are you interested in going hunting in the mountains?"
"Tiger." Kerkorian said after coughing twice, "Let's show our cards, what do you want us to be the agent of "Myth"?"
"If you want to represent "Mythology", the earliest box office share ratio is unreasonable. I will reduce it by half. The specific data is mentioned in this contract. Sist, send it to the five bosses." Wang Xiaohu said to Stallone who followed him without looking back.
The latter nodded, and took out five contracts from his briefcase. A strong guy like Stallone actually acted as a temporary guest secretary for Wang Xiaohu. The five giants cried when they thought about it. This is Rocky, the idol of 80% of American young people.
After the contract was issued, the five giants began to check it carefully. When they saw the share ratio, Kerkorian yelled without thinking: "Dude, this is not allowed! You broke the rules by doing this, you know we have to To maintain the normal development of the theater chain, our previous contract was a [-]-[-] split, but you have changed it to half a year later!"
"Why not?" Wang Xiaohu raised his eyebrows and said, "I think this is very reasonable! In the past seven years, you have made a lot of money from me. Your theater chain needs to maintain its development, and my films also need a lot of capital injection. Is it like Don't high-quality movies like "Star Wars" and "Mythology" need to burn money?"
The contract that Wang Xiaohu showed the five big names in Hollywood was the contract he gave to United Artists at the beginning, that is, starting from "Myth", if he wanted to act as an agent for Concord's films, he had to abide by the box office share ratio, which was changed from the previous 7-3 split. It should be adjusted to 6:4 for the first five weeks, 5:5 from the sixth week, and [-]:[-] half a year later.
Among the five giants present, only MGM has the most confidence. The other four film companies have remained silent. As long as MGM can negotiate, they will all benefit. If MGM fails to negotiate, what capital do they have to change this ratio? Woolen cloth?
"Tiger, what do you want me to say?" Kerkorian puffed on his cigar and said, "If this is the case, it will be difficult for our major companies to survive in the industry in the future, if other production companies compete."
Wang Xiaohu said in a sharp tone: "Mr. Gambling King, that's something you're thinking about! I believe you've also seen the astonishing profits of using high technology in movies. Looking at the whole of Hollywood, can you find a better partner?"
"So, before I say that, please think back to how many dollars our Concord movie made for you!"
"Uh" Kerkorian was stunned, yes, what this Eastern boy said is not wrong at all, "The Warrior's Journey", "Home Alone", "Jaws", "Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind", "Star Wars" It has indeed brought them high profits, which are far beyond what other production companies, including their own film companies, can match.
Looking at the entire Hollywood, Concorde is definitely in the leading position in special effects. Since its establishment, "Industrial Light and Magic" has completed four post-production special effects productions, and the box office of each film has exceeded hundreds of millions of dollars. Not to mention The "Myth" that is in the limelight now, "Star Wars" alone has already earned 3 million US dollars. If "Myth" hadn't caused a Chinese hurricane across the United States, this number would have climbed.
"Dude, how about 4:6, I mean keep the ratio of 4:6 for the first five weeks." Kerkorian looked at the other companies hesitantly, and found that they didn't mean to talk, and cursed in his heart, I can only bite the bullet and bargain with Wang Xiaohu.
"No, 7:3 is already a loss for us!" Wang Xiaohu said in a difficult tone: "You can choose not to act as an agent. I feel that the profits brought by 920 theaters are already considerable. At least we The capital has been recovered, has it not?"
"But 920 can't bring you higher profits. Don't you want to make this profit higher?" Langmeyer, the president of Universal, finally spoke. Besides Gao Mei, he is the only one who can speak.
"I did this to make my own profits higher, Mr. Langmeyer." Wang Xiaohu said with a smile.
hell!Langmeyer rubbed his temples depressedly. If he had known this earlier, he should have prevented Concorde from acquiring theaters seven years ago, damn 7 theaters, damn 200th Century Fox, damn 20 movie theaters in Philadelphia.
Now Wang Xiaohu's attitude is very firm. If you don't agree to the box office share ratio, then OK, we will only show it in 920 theaters. You must know that 920 theaters are also a scale that cannot be underestimated. As long as the schedule is reasonable, it will be shown for a year or so. , The box office data is absolutely amazing!
And this is not very critical. The key point is that if these 920 theaters only show special effects and visual feasts produced by Concorde and 20th Century Fox in the future, the business of other movie theaters will be seriously affected!
The five giants understand that Wang Xiaohu is confident in negotiating with everyone because of these few reliances, and this is obviously stealing money! ! !This unruly oriental kid!
Of the five giants, look at me and I look at you. Only Victor of United Artists is the least stressed. After all, if United Artists wants to distribute "Myth" as an agent, they need to re-lease scattered theaters and earn money from the middle. The price difference, so Victor didn't even think about it, and directly owed the contract.
"SHIT!" Kerkorian resented how much he resented Victor now, wishing he could uproot United Artists!
"Okay! Tiger, you win!" Langmeyer smiled bitterly, and was the second to sign the contract.
"Tiger, after signing this contract, you have to go to Las Vegas, and I will win back all the money you transferred!" Kerkorian gritted his teeth, and signed the contract thoughtfully.
"Isn't the whole process free?" Wang Xiaohu blinked innocently and said, "Hey, Mr. Gambling King, you are the meanest gambling king I've ever seen!"
Everyone laughed. The people from Columbia and Paramount saw that all three companies had signed, and knowing that the situation was over, they simply signed their names on the contract.

Ah, ask for a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket again!
