Chapter 138 Obtaining the copyright of Iron Man, an unexpected surprise
The next day, at noon.

The sun was shining brightly, and Jiang Liu just opened his eyes.

I lazily turned sideways and found my phone, I couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

During his sleep, he actually slept for more than ten hours. It was rare for this kind of thing to happen to a person who pursues good living habits.

Get up, get out of bed, put on brand new slippers, and leave the bedroom.

There was no one in the main room, side room, and corridor. Li Xing must have gone to the unit.

On Huanghuali's square table is breakfast carefully prepared by Li Xin.

It cooled down and turned into mushy rice porridge.

Two steamed buns, one fried dough stick, and three plates of different shapes containing pickles, pickled cucumbers, and pickled radish respectively.

Jiang Liu couldn't help laughing when he saw the neatly arranged breakfast.

Li Xin wanted the tableware and breakfast to be provided in the luxurious compound of Shangjiangzhai, but in fact it was a bit nondescript.

In the eyes of some people, Li Xin who lived in Jiangzhai would probably be said to be like Grandma Liu who came to the Grand View Garden, or a country bumpkin who came to the city and never saw the big world.

But Jiang Liu is not an ordinary person, not to mention that he also comes from the bottom.

Even though he comes from a wealthy family, he doesn't care about Li Xin's background or whether she has a wealthy background.

Humans are the only species on this planet that clearly understands that death is destiny.

As a member of the human race, Jiang Liu realized earlier that he should act arbitrarily and make money in order to be happier and act arbitrarily.

So it doesn't matter if they come from the bottom, they can live how they should live, there is no need to feel inferior, let alone learn the dogmatic rules of wealthy families.

Living your life happily is the key!
After drinking porridge and eating a fried dough stick, Jiang Liuzai took a careful shower and walked out of Jiang's house.

When we took a taxi to Yixin, the company's lunch break happened to be over. When they saw Jiang Liu, everyone immediately tensed up and started working.

After charging his cell phone, Jiang Liu picked up the phone and called He Jing.

"Are you disturbing your sleep? Do you have any idea about the three things I asked you to do?"

"Oh, boss? Wait a minute, I'll get you a glass of water."

Leaning slightly, He Jing's voice came out of the microphone: "Let's talk about Netflix first. It is unlikely to acquire Netflix."

"The two founders of Netflix were planning to raise capital and go public in 2000, but it was later delayed due to the bursting of the Internet bubble."

"More than two years later, Wall Street has renewed its interest in the emerging market of the Internet, and Netflix's financing is almost certain."

Jiang Liu said regretfully: "Then you have to figure it out. You can buy more original shares from the two founders."

"There is also a problem with buying more stocks, unless you give up the rights to Marvel characters."

"What is the name of Marvel's boss? Jiang Liu perked up: "You and Palmater are on the line? "

"We had several rounds of talks. Marvel initially offered a price that was a bit high. I left Palmater alone for two months, and Marvel lowered the price a bit, but even the film and television rights for one Iron Man character cost US$3000 million."

"Hiss, so high? Do you think you are a hero?" Jiang Liu said in disbelief.

In order to write scripts, he learned about the past and present of Hollywood commercial films, and learned about the past and present of Marvel films.

He remembers that Marvel made the decision in 2003 to make its own movie.

In those years, Marvel was always on the verge of bankruptcy at any time, and had to sell off first-line characters such as the Fantastic Four, X-Men, Spider-Man, and the Hulk to save the company.

If a company on the verge of bankruptcy wants to make a movie, where will the money come from?

In order to raise funds, Marvel fought with banks for two years.

In the end, more than 20 second- and third-tier characters including Iron Man, Captain America, and Hawkeye were mortgaged to the bank, thereby borrowing US$3.5 million.

After obtaining the production funds, Marvel began to have difficulties again as to which character to film.

At that time, the Hulk's copyright had expired and he was returning, whether to shoot "The Incredible Hulk" with a first-tier role and a guaranteed box office, or "Iron Man" with a third-tier role.

Marvel's top management thought again and again, and combined with the American environment after 911/2005, decided to prepare the less popular "Iron Man" in 3000.So, "Iron Man" is worth a shitty $[-] million.

He Jing knew that the top management of Marvel knew this, and Marvel had made it clear that they wanted to make a huge profit from Water Pictures.

Jiang Liu was aware of the twists and turns inside, but he still said sternly: "Stop bargaining, just take advantage of me and buy "Iron Man", let Marvel be happy."

"As a result, the branch office will not have much money." He Jing couldn't laugh or cry.

A few months ago, she had $5000 million in hand and thought she would stay in Los Angeles until she was 30.

After a few months, she felt that with Jiang Liu's spending speed, she might be able to return to China a few years earlier. She might be able to reunite with her family this year and watch the 2003 Spring Festival Gala together.

"The rest are just some chores after the company was established. I recruited a few classmates from the University of Southern California. There were not many script submissions. I chose to invest in a horror film script for $130 million. The script has been sent to your email."

"Okay, I'll take a look at it later. You can make the decision for a small script worth more than 100 million. The contracts for Iron Man and investment scripts must be clear. If you have any difficulties with distribution, please contact me in time."

"I can't give you much help here, but I can get some help from Boss Han and Director Yu. You can hang up and go to bed."

Putting down the phone, Jiang Liu entered his password to open his mailbox.

After being confused for a few seconds by a large English script, Jiang Liu waved to Hou Xiaobao.

"Translate for the translator."

Hou Xiaobao touched his chin and said: "The title of this script can be literally translated as "The Scary Chainsaw at Night", and a literary name can be called "Chainsaw"."

"what?"

"What's wrong? Saw has a bad name?"

"It's nothing. Go ahead and get busy. Your animation special effects and props department is holding the company back a bit. Think about how to increase its strength."

Hou Xiaobao said hey: "As long as you give me money, your strength will come immediately?"

"How to say?"

"As long as you have money, you can acquire Tiangong Pictures, Yicai Films, Lesheng Culture, and Yicai Pictures, which are all well-known in the domestic market, into the company. If you can't acquire them, you'll poach them."

Jiang Liu was curious: "How much does it cost?"

"It's estimated to be 3000 to [-] million."

Jiang Liu was speechless: "It's just such a small amount of money? Let's talk."

"But there is also a problem. Special effects are expensive. If domestic film and television dramas reject special effects, it will cost a lot of money to support people and equipment."

Jiang Liu glanced at Hou Xiaobao, who thought he was far-sighted: "You're still hungry, you're just worried about being bloated, right?"

Hou Xiaobao touched the back of his head and left. Jia Xiaozhi, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, suddenly appeared.

"Mr. Jiang, let's go to your office to talk about something."

Jiang Liu patted the large desk: "This is my office."

"Don't deceive me. In this office and this environment, you, the teacher, are sitting on the podium teaching students?"

Jiang Liu laughed loudly: "The description is quite vivid, but I really didn't lie to you. My office is here. We work together and have different divisions of labor. It doesn't matter whether we have an office or not."

Jia Xiaozhi said seriously: "Mr. Jiang, I really admire you. If any other young man had built such a big business, he would have decorated a luxurious office, closed the door every day, and held a beautiful female secretary in his arms."

"Hey, both men and women love to hunt for women. I just keep my work and private life relatively clear. What does Mr. Jia want from me? If it's more private, you can go to the conference room."

"It doesn't matter, the main thing is to discuss the overseas copyright price of Lai Qingshui's "Eternal Dragon Sword"? Why is Xing Aina not doing anything?"

""Yitian" is a drama jointly invested by three companies. Yixin cannot make the decision alone. From now on, you have to ask Hou Hongliang for this kind of thing. Come on, I will introduce it to you."

On the way to find Hou Hongliang, Jiang Liu curiously asked Jia Xiaozhi whether the overseas Chinese TV station would produce local American dramas.

Jia Xiaozhi shook his head like a rattle, hinting to Jiang Liu that Huaxia TV was ostensibly a TV station built by Chinese private owners and foreigners for overseas Chinese, but in fact it had official support behind it, so don't expect to cause trouble.
