Huayu: Starting from intercepting Duan Yu

Chapter 157: Expected Profit, Liu Yifei: At least turn off the lights...

"Cough cough..."

Ten minutes later, seeing that the two were still reluctant to separate, Liu Xiaoli had to remind them.

Liu Yifei was shocked.

Then I remembered that they were still in the living room.

And her mother was home too.

She quickly broke free from Xu Yi's arms.

Fortunately, the two of them just hugged and kissed for a while and did not do anything else excessive.

Xu Yi's expression remained calm, and he didn't feel embarrassed at all.

This is not him doing pua.

Or let Liu Yifei and her daughter get used to something.

He was simply too lazy to pretend.

He has always been like this anyway.

Liu Xiaoli didn't find out about this just today.

"Xu Yi, come and have some fruit."

Liu Xiaoli placed the washed fruits on the coffee table in front of Xu Yi and said with a very polite smile.

It was as if what happened before had never happened.

"Excuse me, Sister Liu."

Xu Yi said as he picked up a strawberry.

But suddenly he found that Liu Yifei was staring at him.

But he didn't say anything and just put the strawberry into his mouth.

"Humph!"

Liu Yifei snorted slightly in dissatisfaction.

But I had to get up and take a strawberry myself.

Seeing this scene, Liu Xiaoli couldn't help but sigh again in her heart.

My daughter is really under the control of this guy Xu Yi!
"Xu Yi, is your filming in the United States going smoothly?"

Liu Xiaoli sat opposite Xu Yi and asked with pretended curiosity.

"It's okay, no different from back home."

Xu Yi said casually.

He paid for the filming of the movie himself, so naturally there wouldn't be any problems.

At least that was the case during filming.

If there are any problems, we will have to wait until after the film is finished.

But he believed that even if any problems really arose later, he could solve them.

You know, he doesn't have so many concerns abroad!

"So can your movie really reach 6 million US dollars at the box office?"

Liu Xiaoli asked again.

His expression also became serious.

Obviously very concerned about this issue.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it should be fine."

Xu Yi answered again.

Liu Xiaoli couldn't help but exclaimed: "Really? How much money can you make?"

You have to know that this is a 6 million meter knife!

Equivalent to a full 50 billion Chinese yuan!
Even if it’s just box office revenue, not net profit!

I think you will definitely make a lot of money!
But Xu Yi shook his head.

“Not much, actually.”

As he spoke, Xu Yi began to explain.

"The $6 million box office is calculated based on $3 million in the U.S. and $3 million overseas."

"The share of the domestic box office in the United States is about 50%, but the distribution fee is 20%, so I can only get about 30%, which is about 9000 million US dollars."

"The overseas box office share is only about 35%, but the distribution fee can be halved, so I can get about 25%, which is about 7500 million US dollars."

"With a box office of 6 million US dollars, I can get a total of about 1.6 million US dollars."

"After deducting the 1.5 million yuan cost, the actual box office profit is only about 1000 million yuan."

The box office revenue sharing ratio of movies in the United States is tiered.

When the film is first released, the distributor can get about 70% to 80% of the box office revenue.

If the issuer is strong, it is not impossible for the share to reach 90%.

For example, in Xu Yi’s previous life, Disney required a 90% share of the initial box office revenue during the years when Marvel superhero movies were at their peak popularity.

This has put a lot of pressure on theater chains.

It is absolutely no exaggeration to say that cinemas make money by selling popcorn and peripheral products.

Therefore, the box office share of general Hollywood movies in the United States can reach about 40%-55%.

Based on an average of 50%, after deducting the 21% distribution share that Xu Yi gave to Harvey and the distributor, only 29% of the box office share remained.

For overseas distribution, since each country has its own secondary issuer, according to convention, the share ratio of the primary issuer will be halved.

However, the box office share is much lower than that in the United States, generally only around 35%.

In this way, Xu Yi can only get about 25% of the overseas box office.

In addition, the filming cost of "Iron Man" is 5000 million US dollars.

This includes a US military appearance fee of 500 million US dollars.

The actors' salaries and crew expenses together amounted to 1500 million US dollars.

The special effects cost is estimated to be 1500 million US dollars.

The total production cost is 8000 million meters.

然后哈维的制片人片酬是560万米刀——制作成本1亿米刀以下7%，1亿米刀以上部分5%。

Add to that 3500 million dollars for publicity.

The actual cost of this "Iron Man" is about 1.2 million US dollars.

This does not include Xu Yi’s own director’s salary.

Therefore, the external publicity of 1.5 million dollars is definitely very conservative!

……

"Ah? That's all I earn..."

I heard that the cost was 1.5 million US dollars, the global box office was 6 million US dollars, but in the end it only made 1000 million US dollars.

Liu Xiaoli was instantly disappointed.

"Mom, this is just the box office profit. The movie also makes other profits!"

Liu Yifei next to him couldn't bear to watch it anymore.

It’s a shame that her mother is her agent and she doesn’t even understand this!
And she knew that Xu Yi definitely said that on purpose!
"Sissi is right, this is just box office profit."

"A movie's profits come not only from box office revenue but also from various copyright revenues."

"If the global box office really reaches 6 million US dollars, then the video copyright income will be at least 5000 million US dollars."

"There are also various other copyrights, especially the toy image copyright, which together should earn more than 1 million US dollars." "So if nothing unexpected happens, the final profit of this "Iron Man" will be able to reach more than million US dollars."

Xu Yi didn't keep the suspense and continued to explain.

Of course, this is just expected profit.

The final profit depends on the actual situation.

That is how to talk.

And the most important thing is how much the box office can reach!

“This is too profitable…”

Liu Xiaoli's eyes suddenly widened!

Although I have known for a long time that making movies can make money.

But I didn't expect it to be so profitable.

This is a full 200 million meter sword!
This is really a movie now, it’s worth a Chen Godfather!
"Tsk, that has to happen after the box office reaches 6 million dollars first!"

Liu Yifei couldn't help but hit him again.

Anyway, every time she saw Xu Yi like this, with a look of confidence in winning, she felt very unhappy.

There was even an urge to beat Xu Yi up!

And she fully believed that she was definitely not the only one who had this impulse!
But she must still hope that the box office of "Iron Man" can really reach this much!

"How about we make a bet?"

Xu Yi turned to look at Liu Yifei and asked with a playful look on his face.

"I'm not betting with you!"

Liu Yifei was not fooled at all.

Since Xu Yi debuted, he has never failed to fulfill his boasts.

Most importantly, even if she won, she didn't know what the stakes would be.

Xu Yi would definitely not agree to the bet she really wanted.

But if she lost, Xu Yi would definitely bully her badly!

She was absolutely sure of this!

"Forget it, don't say I didn't give you a chance!"

Xu Yi said indifferently.

Anyway, even if Liu Yifei didn't gamble, and he wanted to bully her, could she still resist?

Even if she gambled, the result would be the same...

"It's getting late. I have to get up early tomorrow, so I'm going to bed first..."

At this time, Liu Xiaoli suddenly stood up.

She didn't want to stay and be a light bulb anymore.

Not to mention whether Xu Yi's movie can really reach a box office of 6 million US dollars.

Even if he can't achieve it, with Xu Yi's talent, popularity and status now, it will be very easy for him to make money.

What's more, my daughter and Xu Yi are already like this.

It was obvious that the daughter's mind was entirely on her lover Xu Yi.

Now we haven't seen each other for several months.

If she stayed any longer, it would not only make Xu Yi unhappy.

I guess even her daughter would be annoyed by her!
"Then see you tomorrow, Sister Liu!"

Xu Yi said immediately.

Liu Yifei's face turned red again.

Then after Liu Xiaoli returned to the room, Liu Yifei immediately stood up from the sofa.

"I'm going to bed too!"

With that, she prepared to run upstairs to her room.

But how could Xu Yi let her do as she wished?

He stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms.

"You haven't finished watching TV yet, and this is a TV series you starred in!"

At this time, Zhang Da Huzi's "The Return of the Condor Heroes" was still playing on TV.

"Whoever said I was in a TV series, I must watch it!"

Liu Yifei said very firmly.

But then she noticed Xu Yi's eyes, and knowing that something bad was going to happen, she immediately started begging for mercy again.

"Xu Yi, I was wrong. Let's not stay here. Let's go back to the room..."

Liu Yifei said in a low voice.

Obviously he was afraid that his mother would hear it.

"Let's go back to the room later. Besides, it's not like we haven't tried it before at Tiantian's place..."

Xu Yi said,

When Liu Yifei was at Jing Tian and Yang Mi's place, she would sleep with Jing Tian at night.

So after he dealt with Yang Mi at night, he would carry Liu Yifei from Jing Tian's room to the guest room on the other side.

When passing by the living room, I sometimes stop for a while.

This is also why Liu Xiaoli just left.

Liu Yifei was so anxious to go back to her room!

"Well, then at least turn off the lights!"

Liu Yifei said anxiously.

She knew that it was absolutely impossible to ask Xu Yi to stop.

But in the darkness,
But the next moment, she, who was picked up by Xu Yi, suddenly widened her eyes!
"No problem, go turn off the lights now!"

As he said that, Xu Yi held Liu Yifei in his arms and walked over to turn off the lights.

Liu Yifei was so angry that she bit his shoulder hard!
But Xu Yi's skin was so thick and tough now that Liu Yifei couldn't bite him at all.

Even if Xu Yi hadn't taken the initiative to relax the muscles in his shoulders.

This will definitely make her feel bad!

Just like that, the lights in the living room were turned off.

Xu Yi also hugged Liu Yifei and returned to the sofa.

Then I sat on the sofa and watched Liu Yifei playing the role of Little Dragon Girl on TV.

While continuing to hold the real Liu Yifei tightly in his arms.

In the dim living room, the only sound was from the TV.

There are also some other strange noises that can be heard from time to time.

Fortunately, the sofa is made of real leather and is easy to clean.

Otherwise, by tomorrow, you will definitely be discovered.

Don't get me wrong, they were just tired from chatting and sweating a lot.

Not for any other reason...
