Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1885 You Think Too Much

"It seems that Mr. Lin will not give up until he achieves his goal today."

Michael Eisner did not expect Lin Daoqiu to be so persistent, but it can also be seen from this how strong Lin Daoqiu's desire for the screen is.

It is not impossible to rent or share Disney's screens in spare time to Lin Daoqiu, but Michael Eisner wants to know how much profit Disney can get from it.

"I can offer two methods here, a one-time payment for a film at an agreed price, or a share based on the final box office revenue, whichever is fine."

The words Michael Eisner said before made Lin Daoqiu feel that there would be absolutely no problem in winning the opponent this time.

After all, Disney can't produce many live-action movies in a year, let alone animated movies, the number will be even fewer.

Under such circumstances, theaters cooperating with Disney, as well as theaters controlled by Disney itself, must introduce other films for release.

"Well, if Mr. Lin really wants to cooperate with Disney, it's not impossible. It's too troublesome to pay all at once, so let's choose to share."

Michael Eisner is no fool, and if a movie is paid for in one lump sum, the price is certainly not much higher.

After all, it is impossible for every MGM movie to have a box office of over [-] million, but if the asking price is too low, Michael Eisner feels that he is at a disadvantage.

So the best way is to choose to share, so that it feels a bit self-responsible for profits and losses, but it also earns a lot.

"No problem, since Mr. Eisner chooses to share, how much does Disney plan to share?"

"Since it is the first time for everyone to cooperate, we must show sincerity. I think the [-]-[-] split should be acceptable to everyone."

Lin Daoqiu just wanted to rent the other party's theaters to release his own film, but Michael Eisner actually asked for a [-]-[-] share.

The other party was neither in charge of distribution nor publicity, nor even participated in the filming of the movie. He must be crazy if he wants to get [-]% of the share just because of this.

"Your Excellency, are you kidding me? I have to pay [-]% of the proceeds just to rent Disney theaters, which seems a bit too exaggerated."

Lin Daoqiu was already very polite. If he had changed someone, he might not have given Michael Eisner such a good look.

Even if Lin Daoqiu took the initiative to talk to Michael Eisner about this matter, the other party should not have set the conditions so high.

In fact, Michael Eisner himself knew very well that the conditions he offered were indeed harsh, even a little bit humiliating.

But in his opinion, if the conditions are not set higher, how can he negotiate with Lin Daoqiu?

"Then I wonder how much Mr. Lin is willing to pay?"

Michael Eisner looked at Lin Daoqiu and asked with a smile.

"Twenty percent of the box office revenue, I think is a very reasonable price."

Hearing Lin Daoqiu's words, Michael Eisner's face immediately pulled down.

He drove [-] points, but when it came to Lin Daoqiu, it became [-] points.

Although Disney didn't participate in anything, it was only responsible for the release of the movie, but only [-]% of the revenue was obviously not what Michael Eisner wanted to see.

"Well, I'm taking a step back. Disney only needs 45% of the box office, so Mr. Lin should be satisfied."

Michael Eisner took the initiative to give up %5 of the income, but this is far from enough for Lin Daoqiu, let alone %45, even %25 is impossible.

"The [-]% profit is the greatest goodwill I can offer, I hope you can think about it carefully."

Lin Daoqiu's words made Michael Eisner frown, it seemed that the other party had already killed him and only gave [-]%.

But in this case, Disney will not be able to make more money, which is of course unacceptable to Michael Eisner.

"In this case, I'm afraid this cooperation can only be declared over."

In fact, Michael Eisner didn't think much about cooperating with Lin Daoqiu, but he could use the idle schedule of the theater to make more money, which made Michael Eisner willing to talk to him.

But now the terms offered by Lin Daoqiu can't satisfy Michael Eisner, so in his opinion, the talks this time will end without a problem.

"Well, since that's the case, I have nothing to say. I am very happy to meet you today. If there is a chance to cooperate in the future, I hope we can have a good chat."

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, he stood up, and it seemed that he had given up on continuing to persuade Michael Eisner.

Michael Eisner felt that Lin Daoqiu's desire for theaters would definitely give in to himself. Anyway, he was not in a hurry, so he could wait slowly.

"Of course no problem. If I have this opportunity in the future, I will definitely have a good chat with Mr. Lin."

Lin Daoqiu turned around with a smile and took Fang Jinsheng out of Michael Eisner's office.

Lin Daoqiu did think about it before the lion opened his mouth, but what he didn't expect was that Michael Eisner was so greedy.

"Boss, that old man probably won't give in easily. I think it will be difficult for Disney's cooperation to continue."

From Fang Jinsheng's point of view, he felt that Michael Eisner was not a person who would give in easily, and it might be very difficult to persuade him to accept the [-]% share.

Lin Daoqiu just nodded his head. Fang Jinsheng's guess was indeed correct. From Lin Daoqiu's point of view, unless [-]% or [-]% of the share was given to the other party, it would be possible to convince Michael Eisner.

But if this is the case, then I really lost too much on my side, giving up about [-]% of the profit in vain, this is not a joke.

And not only the movie "1992", Lin Daoqiu will have many movies in the future that will require more than 1 yuan to be released on the screen.

"Let's give up on Disney, but I suddenly had an inspiration when I came here today."

Lin Daoqiu turned his head and glanced at the building, and then a weird smile suddenly appeared on his face.

If he hadn't come to Disney, Lin Daoqiu probably wouldn't have had this idea for a while, thanks to Michael Eisner's rejection of himself.

Fang Jinsheng, who was sitting on the side, didn't know why Lin Daoqiu suddenly laughed like this, but in his opinion, once Lin Daoqiu showed such a smile, it indicated that someone would definitely suffer a big loss.

And who is the person who suffered the most is not something that Fang Jinsheng can take care of.

But after a little thought, one can know who Lin Daoqiu is going to deal with. I am afraid that Michael Eisner will definitely regret the decision he made today in the future, but unfortunately, there is no regret in this world.
