Reborn fashion designer

Chapter 781 Xiangyang extends an olive branch to the old Buddha

The box office on the first day was around 450 million.

The second day still maintained a high box office trend
In just three days, the box office in China exceeded 1 million, and the box office is expected to reach million US dollars.
On the way to the airport with Xiangyang, Little John held "Little Anzi" in his arms, and kept talking about the excellent results that "Bullet" had achieved in the Chinese box office market.

In his words, how could he have made a mistake?

With such box office results, the price for getting the Gulf copyright will not be as cheap as it was originally.

Who knows, people might treat it as a treasure and sell it for a high price.

"Haha, it's pretty good. But its premiere in New York was in line with our expectations, wasn't it?"

Xiangyang naturally also noticed the high popularity of "Bullet".

There was no way. My mother was like an obsession and contributed to Jiang Wen's box office for three consecutive days. She even rewatched "Furong Town" when she got home.

Comrade Lao Xiang was angry.

He is a complete jealous person.

He also called and scolded Lao Zhao's son who was going to the movies.

Fortunately, Xiangyang was used to taking the blame, so he just said whatever he wanted to say, turned on the speaker of his phone and threw it aside, then said "um" occasionally.

When Lao Xiang's cell phone was shut down due to unpaid bills, he naturally became quiet.

"If we join, the situation won't necessarily be like this." Little John looked down on the influence of the Hong Kong company called Emperor Entertainment Group in the American film market. He smiled and asked, "What a great film!"
"Tell me, is what Dad said right?"

"Hehehe~" The silly fat boy only knows how to have fun, and doesn't understand anything else.

"Let him eat less. I think he's getting fatter and fatter." Xiang Yang glanced at his godson.
Gaining weight again.

It’s not possible that I will really grow up to be a fat man in the future.

"So I brought him out with me this time." Little John said this, but in fact he was taking revenge on JCE.

Want to keep your grandchildren around?

It is not impossible.

Little John was willing to show the way forward to the doting father of little JoJo.

"By the way, I'm letting you know in advance. I'm going to attend a banquet with President Han when I get to the capital."

Although Han Sanping and Jiang Wen had a disagreement, he would not, against his will, trip up a movie that was currently in theaters and had such a dazzling box office and reputation.

From this we can also see that the box office performance of "Bullet" is indeed a bit surprising.

I think it would be good though.

But who could have imagined it would be so outstanding.

It directly snatched away the market share of "Zhao Shi" and "Big Laugh in the World".

"Well, then go ahead." Xiangyang said.

It is estimated that the famous scene was born at this banquet. Jiang Wen directly threw a check of 800 million as a red envelope to the film's investor Yang Shoucheng.

If little John saw this, he would probably feel itchy.

800 million converted into euros is 100 million, which is one-third of his net worth.

"Just don't delay things in Shanghai."

"Don't worry, I'm just going to join in the fun." Little John smiled, then handed over 'Little Anzi' in his arms and said:

"Here, he will be yours then."

"."

Xiangyang was a little reluctant, but there was nothing he could do.

Anyway, the first thing he would do after returning home was to hand the little guy over to Liu Xiaoli to take care of him, and he would only take care of him for a while.

Well, it’s not impossible to hand the little one over to Karl Lagerfeld on the plane.

To be honest, the film industry has its own excitement.

The fashion circle also has its own concerns.

But when the fashion circle and the film circle come together, the volume of voice created is not comparable to the box office performance of a movie.

Karl Lagerfeld, who set out early in the morning, specifically used INS to announce his trip on social media.

He is not only going to China.

I also want to join the crew of "About Time" and participate in the filming!
This sensational news instantly set off a wave of heated discussions in the European and American entertainment and fashion circles. Karl Lagerfeld was actually going to appear in a movie?
Apart from documentaries, the last time Karl Lagerfeld appeared in a movie was in "The Legend of Chucky" in 2006.

The reason why we were able to invite him to come out at that time was because of his background as a co-producer.

As expected, the heroine in this movie is the spokesperson for Chanel outside the film, and the old man took the opportunity to support his own spokesperson.

But this time, it's completely different.

Although "Time Traveler" is sponsored by Chanel, Liu Qianqian is not the spokesperson for Chanel.

In China, Chanel has a legitimate spokesperson.

unfortunately
"No need to arrange a reception, this is my private trip and I will only stay for one night." Karl Lagerfeld, who had already boarded his private plane, said to his assistant.

Karl Lagerfeld is very satisfied with the popularity generated by the information he posted on social platforms.

The old man is very arrogant.

He doesn't want to be easily outdone by young people.

Although Xiang Yang was mentioned in many comments just because he liked the post, netizens and some editors of fashion media were amazed at his scary energy.

But this is not because Mr. Buddha is willing to give him face.

This must be made clear.

"Also, ask them where they are." Looking at the morning light in the sky outside the porthole, Mr. Lafayette added.

What a big deal, he even asked him to pay for the gas and wait.
Wait, I must give him a good scolding later.

As they were talking, the voices of the flight attendant greeting Xiangyang, Little John, and Bi Shafer who were still at the plane door came in.

The old man immediately cleared his throat and then pulled his face.

Just as he was about to adjust his mood, Xiangyang, wearing a Givenchy hoodie and holding "Little Anzi", appeared in his sight.

The old man frowned and snorted.

It is no secret in the fashion world that he likes Givenchy.

Xiangyang's move
"JoJo~ Say hello to your Grandpa Carl." Xiangyang came over with a smile on his face, grabbed 'Xiao Anzi's' paw and shook it towards Grandpa Buddha.

Since he is his godson, he must cultivate excellent moral qualities from an early age. If he doesn't learn to shoulder the blame, how can he have a good life in the future?
"Hehehe~" Little Anzi listened to his godfather very much. He smiled at Karl Lagerfeld who was sitting on the sofa, showing his baby teeth, and opened his arms for a hug.

Seeing how he handled things, Xiang Yang complained in his heart, "You really take after your father."

When he saw the child, Mr. Lafayette blinked.

Forget it, give the child some face, after all Xiangyang is the child's godfather.
Sighing, he stood up from his seat, held the child directly in his arms, and asked Chao Yang, "Did he have breakfast?"

"I've eaten. I came out late because of him. If you don't believe me, ask Shafer. The little guy held on to his mother's hand and refused to let go." Xiangyang said, pointing to Bi Shafer behind him.

If you don’t believe me, ask her.

"The child's mother should have been brought along."

The old man smiled and nodded at Bi Shaffer.

"She is busy with something." Xiangyang did not explain further. Laura had her own things to deal with in Paris.

However, without the child, he felt much relieved. After getting rid of the burden, he turned around and greeted Karl Lagerfeld's assistant.

He was very sleepy after getting up so early.

"Let's have breakfast together, Shaffer, you hold the child." Mr. Lafayette handed JoJo to Bi Shaffer and then glanced at little John.

Of course he knew something about the child's falling out with his family.

JCE is also an old friend of his.

so.
When he saw Little John, he didn't give him a good look.

Although it is not clear why the father and son quarreled again, he obviously stood on JCE's side.

"Hello, Uncle Carl." Little John greeted him awkwardly. He saw everything that happened just now.

Damn Xiangyang, he actually used his son as a shield!

You used it.

What do I use?
After muttering something in his heart in annoyance, he quickly stood in front of the dining table, picked up the teapot attentively, and refilled the tea in Mr. Lafayette's cup like a waiter.

"The Minions IP is well done," said Karl Lagerfeld.

"It's all luck." Little John rarely showed a smug look. His humble attitude made Xiangyang and Bi Shafer marvel at him.

Is this Little John?

"If you have any future cooperation with Universal on animation, you can talk to me about it." Karl Lagerfeld picked up the teacup with satisfaction and took a sip.

"Why? You also value this?"

Xiangyang tilted his head in confusion and asked curiously.

The old lady glanced at Xiangyang and nodded slowly.

The transformation brought about by the Internet has brought about the diversity of publicity and promotion, requiring brands to explore and innovate more proactively. The breakthroughs made by Xiang Yang and Little John in this regard have further confirmed this point.

Since he is still in full charge of Chanel and Fendi, he cannot fall behind easily.

In this regard, the two young men in front of him seemed to have a deeper understanding of this aspect than the public relations department of his company.

Mainly, they can accurately select the works that best resonate with the brand from a variety of works.

This is very rare.

"Next year, Hollywood's investment in animated films will be quite large." Little John thought for a moment and briefly explained what he knew.

The most anticipated film is of course "Kung Fu Panda 2".

Then came Alvin and the Chipmunks and Cars 3.

The development of Hollywood animated films is somewhat similar to their live-action counterparts. Sequels often receive investment due to the success of their predecessors, and they seize the initiative in terms of publicity and promotion as well as the attention of moviegoers.

Of course, several other animated films also attracted attention.

"The Smurfs", "Puss in Boots" and "Winnie the Pooh" are all films that are popular in the market.

But these films are nothing spectacular for either HYS or Chanel.

You can't have Winnie the Pooh wearing a Chanel sweater, or have the cat named Booth wear boots with the HYS logo on them.

Well...it's not impossible.

This fairy tale called "Puss in Boots", like "The Little Prince", also comes from France.

The copyright was bought by DreamWorks and is ready to be brought to the big screen.

However, while listening to the conversation between John Jr. and Karl Lagerfeld, Xiang Yang focused his attention on another movie name that was subsequently read out by his friend.

"Rio".

Rio de Janeiro.
Samba World Cup. Olympic Games.
And Angry Birds.

"Little John, go talk to Fox and see if he can sell the copyright of the derivative products to us." Xiangyang thought about it and asked his friend expectantly.

There is something to be done about this.

It's both sports and games.

Maybe if it's done well, HYS will be able to earn some free advertising traffic by hosting two top events.

"I'm afraid it's not that simple."

Little John was stunned for a moment, then sighed with regret.

Ever since the Minions IP became popular, American producers have been keeping a close eye on the copyrights of the animated films they are producing and waiting to be released.

They were afraid that they would follow Universal's old path and easily sell valuable IP licenses as cheap goods.

Especially now they are very wary of Hermes Film Investment Company.

Cooperation, no problem.

Open the door and roll out the red carpet to welcome you.

But the price.
"Universal is very interested in cooperating with us on Kung Fu Panda 2. Are you interested?"

"That's it"

Xiangyang crossed his arms and tilted his head to think.

If it costs a lot of money, then it is better.
Thinking of this, Xiang Yang smiled towards the old Buddha and said:

"Karl, why don't our two families cooperate on this?"

Yes, there is no movie more suitable for a fashion brand than this one!
