The whole entertainment circle thinks I'm confused

Chapter 580
"Mindley's agent, Kevin!"

Kevin stood up straight.

"OK, my two distinguished guests, please help entertain me, is it okay? Kevin?"

"no problem!"

The moment he walked out of the meeting room, Kevin breathed a sigh of relief, with shock in his eyes, but more excitement!

"Old Chet!"

This is the real boss who created Mindley Films, and he is one of the legends in Hollywood!

"You actually greeted me?"

"Unbelievable!"

And Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling looked at each other, and they both saw the inexplicable color in the other's eyes.

"Cooperation, I'm afraid there will be another level of change."

A good show of internal fighting in the Mingli family is about to be staged?

The two exchanged glances.

"really interesting?"

Hanks' "family meeting" lasted more than half an hour, specifically 36 minutes.

Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling didn't know what to talk about in detail.

Why do you think Kevin was asked to "entertain" Xia Yu and the others?
When they entered the conference room again, Old Chet sat at the main seat, and Amanda sat at the bottom left.

As for Bruce Hanks who is no longer in the meeting room, in all likelihood, Old Chet has already been kicked out.

When Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling entered the conference room, Old Chet waved at Xia Yu with a "kind" face.

"sit!"

As for Kevin, he received old Chet's gesture of waving his hand away, and said, "Don't let people disturb us."

Old Chet announced, "Starting today, Mindley Films will be taken over by Amanda, and I will also officially introduce you. This is my granddaughter, the next heir to the Hanks family—as for Bruce Hanks, This unlucky and unlucky guy, you just pretend you haven’t seen it? I, my blinded father, apologize to you for the stupid things he did and the stupid things he said!”

Both Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling did not expect that in just half an hour, Mingdeli Films had already carried out a round of "new and old heirs" handover ceremony, but for the bankrupt sisters, it was undoubtedly a big challenge. good news.

But the two of them didn't dare to answer what Old Chet said, and both smiled.

"Now, we can have a good talk about cooperation."

Old Chet looked at Amanda and asked.

"You really don't plan to sell these two series of scripts to us at Mindley Films? We, Mindley Films, are willing to offer the same price as "Black Moon Project Series", which is already the highest price in the industry. gone."

"One for 5000 million US dollars, you two series, a total of nine, you don't even need to shoot, don't waste time, thinking about how to find a partner, just sign the contract, 5000 million US dollars, will go directly to your bankrupt sisters The account of the film and television company!"

"Even if you want, this money can go to your Xia Yu studio in Huaxia."

"As for the question of actors, I think if you want, we can sign a contract. The heroines of these two series of movies can still be played by you. What do you think?"

It has to be said that Old Chet is an old fox in the business field, and with one move, he almost pinched Xia Yu's Achilles' heel.

The condition he offered was so rich that it couldn't be more generous, even a bit exaggerated.

"Black Moon Project Series" was able to sell for sky-high prices because of the support of a group of top screenwriters from Victoria Films.

"Inside Victoria Films", in order to raise the film's final rating and high price--is one of the marketing strategies.

There are four films in total, with a total of [-] million US dollars, but the real cost of this money may only be half.

As soon as Old Chet's words came out, "Twilight Series" and "The Hunger Games Series" will truly become the most expensive series of film scripts in the world. This wave of marketing will probably drive the entire European and American film and television circles crazy .

It can be called sky-high price!

At the same time, Old Chet also appointed Xia Yu to act as the heroine of these two "sky-high" series.

You know, these two are absolute "heroine" movies, and the whole process is shot around the heroine.

If this news is released, Xia Yu will be jealous to death. I don't know how many European and American actresses want to tear Xia Yu's face.

This is the final result of the discussion between Old Chet and Amanda. Amanda emphasized more than once,
"Bankrupt Sisters Film and Television, it is almost impossible to sell these two scripts rated S!"

Old Chet said confidently, "Then make a price and condition that they can't refuse!"

Xia Yu's heart-warming eyes made Old Chet smile confidently. He didn't believe that someone could refuse this condition.Even the popular superstar Eva Veron couldn't refuse.

But in the next second, Xia Yu answered calmly without thinking, which stunned both Old Chet and Amanda.

"Our bankrupt sisters are very happy to be recognized by Mr. Hanks and repeatedly supported by Ms. Amanda, but I don't think we can reach such a cooperation. We hope that these two series of films will be produced by us. Filmed by own personnel.

We can also shoot together - but the producer of the movie must be our BG (Bankrupt Sisters).So if we still can't reach a cooperation, we can only express our regret. "

Xia Yu's refusal without thinking was something that Old Chet did not expect.

"What?" He stared at Xia Yu, puzzled, began to think, and asked:
"Don't you think that the model of this contract is enough to push you to the status of a first-line movie star in Hollywood?"

"We Mingli spent 5000 million US dollars to buy this series, and we also took a huge risk!"

"Our next biggest action must be to pay back quickly. If you are worried about our Mindley Films, we will get stuck on the script. We can sign a specific time agreement for the shooting cycle, the release cycle, and compensation issues."

"What do you think?"

Old Chet backed down again.

But what was waiting was still a refusal.

If Xia Yu hadn't been ambitious and wanted to contribute to the Chinese film industry, Old Chet's contract would have been almost perfect.

'I don't have any ambitions, but unfortunately, once the ambition is raised, it will be difficult to dispel it! '

This is her, Xia Yu.

"I think, I will still refuse Mingdeli's kindness." Xia Yu smiled.

Old Chet exchanged glances with Amanda, and the kind smile on Old Chet's face slowly subsided, gradually becoming serious and dissatisfied.

He said, "You should have investigated Mindley's recent situation, but do you think that with these few scripts, Mindley will make wedding dresses for you? If I didn't make a mistake in the investigation, did you initially plan to contact Victoria Films? Refused?"

"Yes."

"Why was it rejected? It's because they don't want to make wedding dresses for you?"

An old fox is an old fox. Old Chet, who is willing to use his brain, is fundamentally different from Bruce, who is domineering, arrogant and frivolous after taking over the position.

"Then why do you think that Victoria Films rejected you, and Mindellie Films will support you in Hollywood—to make a big splash and build your 'bankrupt sister kingdom'?"

"Because of our Mingdeli, the film and television market share is decreasing year by year? What if we voluntarily give up?"

"We don't want film and television shares anymore. We control 30.00% of the world's theaters, which is enough for our Mindley Hanks family to be honored for at least 100 years. The money we make is still enough for our Mindley's film and television empire to survive for 100 years. .”

"These 100 years are enough for us to find another way to solve the problem!"

Old Chet was confident.

If Xia Yu hadn't gotten inside information, she might have agreed with Old Chet's self-confidence.Just like Great Wall Film and Television, as long as it proceeds steadily and step by step, I dare not say that in the next 100 years, it will still be a giant in China's film and television industry in 30 years.

that's enough.

The arrival of Old Chet made Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling have other ideas. Just now in the rest room, the two communicated in Chinese.

Kevin couldn't understand anyway.

Still whispering.

If even Xia Yu knew about the next move of Victoria Films, then Chet Hanks, the overlord of the Mindley Empire, one of the Hollywood film and television empires, and the legendary figure who founded Mindley Films, would have just a little bit of information. Not received?

Besides, the big move of Victoria Films in the past two or three years, and the loss of Mindley Films' theaters-won't Old Chet have a reputation?

Regarding this question, Zhuang Ling only said, "See how much old Chet is willing to pay."

The more it means, the more important this matter is to Mindley Pictures.

5000 million US dollars is really a sky-high price. Xia Yu really doesn't want to settle Mingli, but just wants to achieve a win-win situation——

Therefore, since it is a "secret" that both you and I know, Xia Yu feels that there is no need to hide it.

She exchanged a look with Zhuang Ling.

Zhuang Ling understood and took Xia Yu's words.

she says.

"Mr. Hanks, I think it would be nice if things were really that simple."

"The thing is, it's not that simple. I think you know what I mean, don't you?"

Old Chet narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"

"Mr. Hanks thinks——Victoria Films will allow Mindley Films to continue to share its profits? Victoria sets 20.00% of the world's box office revenue every year, but it has to share 30.00% with Mindley Films. For you Work for free?"

"It's old Mr. Hanks changing places, sir, can you accept it?"

Old Chet narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "I don't know, what charades are you playing!"

Zhuang Ling didn't shy away from Old Chet's gaze, didn't explain the whole thing, only mentioned a name.

"Kate Elizabeth Middleton."

Old Chet's pale blue pupils shrank suddenly, then stared at Zhuang Ling firmly, and said for a while, "So, you know!"

Zhuang Ling nodded slightly, with a calm face.

This made Old Chet sigh with emotion, and laughed loudly, "I'm old, I'm old——"

He undoubtedly wanted to express the fact that he was no longer young and had to accept his old age.

Sighing, Old Chet said, "I have to admit, you guys won this negotiation!"

"Yes, Victoria Films has made a move."

"As you have guessed, if Mindley Films doesn't take counterattacks, perhaps, in three years, five years... our Mindley Films will die in name only, and will eventually be encroached upon and acquired by Victoria Films. !"

When the emotion is over, Old Chet is also a practical man, and he doesn't have so many false tricks.
"Not much nonsense, I just want to ask a few questions.

First, the purpose of your bankrupt sisters;

Secondly, win-win cooperation, so-called win-win, what can Mindley Pictures get?
In other words, whether our Mingdeli Films can stand firm in this war.And you, what guarantee do you have? "

This is the most in-depth and solemn cooperation meeting of the two cooperation negotiations.

Zhuang Ling slowly straightened her back, expressing that she was not at peace at the moment.

"Hollywood, and even the world's film and television classes have been solidified for too long, and it's time to loosen the soil. As old Mr. Hanks said, we Bankrupt Sisters plan to build a new film and television empire—Bankrupt Sisters Film and Television Empire!"

"Ambitious?"

"But Mr. Hanks is willing to pay 5000 million U.S. dollars, isn't it just a side approval of the script of our bankrupt sister film and television company? "Twilight Series" and "The Hunger Games Series", Mr. Hanks thinks this is us Everything about Broke Girls?"

"We have a third, fourth, even a fifth series - and this first and second series is our sincerity."

"What can Mingdeli Pictures get? In the next ten years, or even 20 years, the support of the bankrupt sister film and television empire!"

"40.00% of the investment accounted for each film, and each commercial film has a box office commitment of [-] million U.S. dollars."

"After the first movie is released, we guarantee that in the next ten years, at least an average of [-]% of the global box office revenue will be increased for Mingdeli Films every year!" This time it was Zhuang Ling's turn to say that, "What do you think? "

what does this mean?
Mingdeli Films is a huge film and television empire, and now it only accounts for [-]% of the global box office.

The entire Huaxia only occupies 17.00% of the eighty-nine, and this is only the lowest guarantee for the bankrupt sisters, not counting Mindley itself.

The proportion of the box office, resources, and so on all affect each other, if the Bankrupt Sisters are really achieved.Then, it not only helped Mindley Films spread its influence, but also affected the development and expansion of Victoria Films to a certain extent!
When Mingdeli Film Industry was at its most glorious, even the other seven major film industries had to avoid it, and once reached the top, becoming the leader of the eight major film industries!

It's a pity that it is so thin today.

So much so that after Zhuang Ling finished speaking, not only Amanda, but even the old Chet, who was used to seeing the big world, became a little short of breath——

This concerns the future of Mindley Films!

"What do you bankrupt sisters need? How can we guarantee that our investment will not be wiped out?"

"After all, you only have the script. Bruce is very arrogant, but he is right. There is no corresponding theater support, and there is a big tree like Victoria Films standing in front of you..."
