"The Great Sage" is different from the previous two movies. It used to be a commissioned distribution and selling model. Although the box office seems to be good, the actual profits obtained are not high except for the East and Southeast Asian markets.
Take the most successful "Zodiac" before, as an example. The box office of the European and American markets is close to 300 million US dollars, but many of these movies are sold out in the market, which is not a normal share. At the same time, the European and American markets are looking for new movies that were released for the Pinnacle Moment series before.
The new movies are now a subsidiary of Warner, so they are very strict in terms of shareholding and charge US$15 million in publicity and distribution fees. They are just box office revenues, but they actually get a profit of about US$70 million. It seems very good, but in fact it is just that. Anyway, Wu Mingxuan feels that he is at a loss.
The test film meeting is the most orthodox distribution model. The final box office share and distribution fee are discussed with professional distribution companies. What level can be discussed depends on your own negotiation skills and the final evaluation of your film by the distribution company.
Because Fox and the Murdoch family are currently showing great sincerity and their strength is reliable, so as long as they are not too ruthless in exploitation, Wu Mingxuan will agree.
Anyway, he can't share a few dollars, so he mainly tests the popularity of this series in the European and American markets. Once it is done, it means that he has mastered a real money tree and has won at least ten years of luck for the entire Chinese-language film.
With the special BT function like telepathy, Wu Mingxuan naturally found out the bottom line of Murdoch, which was not ideal, but it was not bad. The next step was the negotiation skills, try to make a deal near the bottom line, and get yourself a real entry ticket first.
It's really boring. I didn't take us with the test film. Even if I don't take us, Sister Yifei, you, the heroine, must bring Ah. What's this now?
Qin'er, don't make trouble, do you think this is in the country? This is Hollywood, who knows us? What are you taking us over? My godfather has no idea now, so I will discuss the release first.
After Li Qin came here, she realized that Hollywood was completely different from what she had imagined at the beginning. She couldn't even leave the door. She could only be locked up at home for the time being, which was worse than that in Hong Kong. It was really boring.
Li Bingbing is used to this. There are no shortage of top rich people here. I don’t know how many top celebrities and world-class superstars there are in Beverly Hills. The awesome brothers in China are just an old guy here. They are different from those boasting in China. They are brilliant, but they are really not the top-notch existence.
After a verbal battle, Wu Mingxuan reached a cooperation with Fox and was able to take 45% of the total box office of their release from Fox.
The total investment in publicity and distribution is 35 million US dollars, of which Wu Mingxuan has to bear 20 million US dollars. Fox gave a guarantee of $1.5 billion, and they will bear the box office publicity and distribution expenses independently.
I will definitely attend the dinner on time tomorrow night, so I will see you tomorrow night. Please James for the promotion and promotion later. If you have any phone calls, I am also very interested in the friends you want to introduce to me.
After seeing that Wu Mingxuan and Murdoch seem to have reached a cooperation, Kevin originally wanted to go up and chat with Wu Mingxuan to get to know each other first, but he was directly grabbed by the mature old man Stan Li.
The old man grabbed Kevin and muttered in a low voice: Don’t worry, the quality of the movie is indeed good, but you have to consider whether this is Europe and the United States, our territory, and whether the audience can accept it is still a question mark. After all, not many of the ones we created before are very popular in the market. After all, this is not the mainstream, so don’t worry at this moment.
Kevin nodded understandingly. He was not a cartoonist himself and had never created related comics, so he was not very clear about these.
But Stan Lee, the father of Marvel, is different. He has never seen any storms. In order to open up the Oriental market, Marvel had created Oriental superhero organizations and superhero series.
But the gains are very small, that is, the excitement of the creation based on Bruce Lee is not bad, but it is just a second-tier hero. Since the movie will be released soon, it is better to wait until the movie is released and the market response will be mentioned. Once a collaboration is done, it will not be a small amount of money. Later, it involves a very huge superhero movie universe.
Stan Lee mainly did not see mature comic works, so he wanted to wait and see. If he knew what the oriental superhero universe was in Wu Mingxuan's mind was like, he would not have thought like this now.
After reaching a preliminary cooperation with Fox, Wu Mingxuan felt much more relaxed. Although he is still far from gaining a foothold in Hollywood, he has obtained a ticket to officially enter Hollywood. Now it depends on whether he can gain a foothold in Hollywood with the help of "The Great Sage".
I won’t go back now. I plan to go out for a walk. Now I have put down the big stone in my heart for the time being. I will see you tomorrow night.
Jackie Chan nodded and said nothing. Wu Mingxuan also brought a lot of bodyguards, which looked much more professional than those around him. The rest would be discussed after the movie was released.
After all, there are many people who end up with Waterloo in superhero movies, the most typical of which are the once popular Spider-Man series and X-Men series.
Jet Li actually wanted to come forward and get close to Wu Mingxuan. He has now recognized Wu Mingxuan's directorial creative talent, but for a while he really didn't know what to talk about, so he could only wait for the dinner held at the Murdoch family's villa tomorrow night before finding an opportunity to make up for the relationship between the two parties.
Wu Mingxuan from Hollywood has been here in his previous life, but he is a tourist, so the place he goes is different from that of tourists. He just goes to North Hollywood directly.
Starting from the bustling Hollywood Avenue, you can reach the NH Arts District of North Hollywood in less than 10 minutes, an open place where it is truly famous not only for movies but live theaters.
Compared to the hippie, fashion and trends in other areas, North Hollywood shows bohemian freedom and boldness.
Walking along the way, you can see three or five teenagers wearing knitted hats and skateboards, dancers dancing street dances on the street corners with cool tattoos, cool girl wearing ripped jeans.
There are also graffiti walls everywhere, galleries and old theaters with faded neon signs.
Some media joked that North Hollywood is a gathering place for down-and-out artists and actors, but Wu Mingxuan prefers that this is the dream place for Los Angeles artists.
Walking on the street and passing by you, he (she) may be the next star of tomorrow, and he is here to try his luck.
