I am the fifth king

Chapter 457 $4 million

Fast and the Furious has been out for over a week.

Over the past week, film companies in Hollywood have been in contact with Hua Ren, including the New Line Film Company that He Jin and Andy Lau had talked about before.

Last time, New Line Films offered 100 million US dollars, which was rejected by He Jin.

And as the box office of The Fast and the Furious in Xiangjiang continued to rise, and several Hollywood studios joined the competition, the bids for this film became higher and higher.

As of yesterday, New Line Cinema offered a price that no other company could afford.

$400.

Some may find the price too low.

In fact, to be honest, this price is already not low, and even broke the current record for the purchase price of Hollywood filmmakers in Xiangjiang.

In addition, some people may have said that it is possible to play the gambling agreement and get a share.

Then think too much.

No one is a fool, neither are Chinese, nor are foreigners.

The so-called VAM agreement, haven't the producers in Xiangjiang ever done it?

In fact, it has been done, but people don't agree.

Yes, these foreigners will not agree to the existence of sharing and gambling agreements.

They buy movies to make money.

Now that he has taken a fancy to your film, it proves that he believes that this film will make him money.

Since you can make money, why do people want to bet against you?

Wouldn't it be nice to just buy out at one price?

As for the share, don't even think about it, even if it is [-]%, these Hollywood film companies will not be willing.

Even whether your share is higher or lower than the buyout gold, they will not be willing.

As for the reason - the rules.

Yes, it's the rules. Hollywood filmmakers have a default rule when they buy movies, that is, they will resolutely not give the rights to the movies outside of North America.

To put it bluntly, it is a market monopoly. When everyone buys a movie, they buy it at an extremely low price. If someone breaks this rule, they will basically be banned by all other Hollywood filmmakers.

Moreover, this rule is in their favour.

Looking at the films they selected, almost all of them were purchased at extremely low prices, and then they made a lot of money.

If one person breaks the rules and buys movies in a way of sharing, then such things will happen one after another in the future, and no one will make any money at that time.

Therefore, when Hollywood commercials purchase films, they purchase all the copyrights in North America.

Of course, there are exceptions. If you get to the superstar level, you will be as powerful as Jackie Chan in later generations.

As a person with status, you are naturally qualified to negotiate with them such as sharing agreement.

And "Fast and Furious" is obviously not in this list.

Therefore, 400 million US dollars is already the highest price that Hollywood filmmakers can offer.

For He Jin, this price is also suitable.

Although he is currently very popular in North America, he is one of the most popular foreigners in North America this year.

But his popularity is mainly reflected in the music scene.

As for movies, he really doesn't have much appeal. Maybe some of his fans will go to see his movies, but it's unknown how many people go.

Therefore, after New Line offered to buy Fast and Furious for $400 million, he was ready to agree.

However, this film was co-invested by him and Andy Lau, even though Andy Lau said let him make the decision.

But this kind of thing must be discussed with him.

……

["The King of Karaoke" topped the top song list, I can't sing very well, don't frown.He Jin deduces the singer's love song]

[The undisputed leader of the five heavenly kings, one person who has released a new song, all of them have reached the top ten of the list]

[Lin Xi issued a post claiming that he doesn't like He Jin]

……

谷繒

"The King of Karaoke" EP was released in two days, with four songs, "The King of Karaoke" topped the list, "Heart Photo", "King of Friends", and "Burning Blood" ranked fourth, fifth and sixth respectively.

He Jin's strength naturally pushed down the songs of the other five heavenly kings.

With such a strong speed on the list, the media naturally chose to report it immediately.

However, what puzzled all the citizens was that "One Emperor and Four Kings", which was sold very well yesterday, had been sold for only one day, yet there were no newspaper reports.

Not only did other newspapers not report it, even the Oriental Daily News did not include this report today.

In addition, none of the singers who expressed their dissatisfaction with He Jin in the interview yesterday did not mention this matter today.

Just like Ye Qianwen, in an interview yesterday, when she was asked about "One Emperor and Four Kings", although she didn't answer clearly, she satirized He Jin both openly and secretly, calling him arrogant.

And today, when an unreasonable reporter asks about this matter again, her words become "I don't know!"

Citizens who understand the entertainment industry see this situation, and naturally understand that someone has made efforts to suppress this news.

Those who don't understand are naturally full of doubts.

However, although the news of "One Emperor and Four Kings" only existed for one day, many people still knew about it, and even took it seriously.

It's more than a fan.

When He Jin went to the company the next day, the fans standing downstairs of Huaxing Records held up a sign saying 'Yi Huang'.

He Jin didn't explain this.

Fans are free, others have not violated the law, and He Jin is not a policeman, so he can't control this.

Moreover, he also has the idea of ​​​​letting fans go.

Some things are subtle.

As long as there are fans calling him by this, then slowly, he will naturally become the so-called Yihuang.

At that time, this is not what he promoted, but what the fans called, and other companies have ideas and can't do anything about it.

In the afternoon, He Jin made an appointment with Andy Lau, and told him about his plan to sell "Fast and Furious" to New Line Cinema for 400 million US dollars.

"It's still you, Niu. Fortunately, you didn't agree that day. If you agreed, we would have lost 300 million US dollars."

When Andy Lau heard that New Line Films planned to purchase the film for 400 million, he immediately became excited.

Converting 400 million US dollars into RMB is about 900 million.

That's not a small sum, but with that money, "The Fast and the Furious" paid off.

As for other Xiangjiang box offices, the income from Singapore, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and other places is almost pure profit.

"Hong Kong 3000 million Hong Kong dollars, Taiwan 500 million, Singapore and other places 2000 million, Japan 3000 million, South Korea 1000 million.

Ma Dan, 5000 million Hong Kong dollars!It’s not that I don’t know, but after doing the math, the two of us can actually share [-] million yuan.

In addition, VCD and other CDs are not counted. If CDs are added, there will be more.

Well, it's cool to follow you kid! "

Andy Lau calculated the profit of this movie, and immediately expressed joy.

He has invested in no fewer than ten movies, but this is the first time he has made such a good profit.

"You haven't counted the mainland yet."

He Jin smiled.

"mainland?"

Andy Lau looked at He Jin suspiciously.

"I got news that the country is starting to import American films.

Since American movies can be released domestically, so can "Fast and Furious". "

He Jin smiled.

In the past, Xiangjiang movies and American movies, unless they were co-produced, otherwise, except for CD discs that could be played in mainland China, other movies were not allowed to be shown in domestic movie theaters.

And starting this year, after the reform of the domestic film introduction system, Xiangjiang films will be able to choose to be released in China in the future.

Of course, to review.
