Chapter 657

At seven o'clock in the evening, Xiao Yunhai three people came to a newly opened steak restaurant.

It was said that there was a good red wine in it, so Kerry chose this restaurant with Jesse as a local tyrant.

After asking for a bottle of Lafite in 1982, Kerry said contentedly, "it's still the fragrance of red wine that doesn't cost money."

Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "Kerry, you should pay attention to your words and deeds. Isn't America very gentlemanly? "

Kerry said indifferently, "it's just a show, mainly for outsiders. There's a saying in China that it's a bastard that you don't take advantage of yourself. Even though I don't know what a son of a bitch is, I still think it makes sense

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "I really believe you."

"The sales of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone have been counted out all over the world, a total of 93.6 million copies," Jesse said

Kerry asked, "Jesse, tell me, how much money can he get out of it?"

"At today's exchange rate, it's about 360 million dollars," Jesse said

Kerry said with remorse on his face, "I'm in a bad mood now when I hear this number. I missed at least two billion because of five million. That's not the income of movies. My God, I'm going crazy

"The big four publishers in Europe have called and I hope you can give them the second Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets," Jesse said

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "wait until the film of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone is over. Kerry, when will our movie be released? "

Kerry said: "it should be about mid March."

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "great. Hehe, the next Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets is going to be published at my own expense

Jesse said, "Xiao, it seems you can make a lot of money again."

Another year, the waiter called me a bottle of grief

Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "OK, Kerry. You MGM's Dinosaur competition has swept away $4.2 billion in the world. What else do you want? "

Kerry said: "but don't forget that we invested 800 million dollars and it took us two years to complete. But your "Jingwu hero" only invested tens of millions of dollars and won 4.9 billion dollars in less than two months. How do you want us to compare. And the Harry Potter series. It's a cornucopia. Once the movie is shown all over the world, it will definitely stimulate the sales of your novels. There should be no problem in breaking the billion yuan. The next two, three... Oh, my God, I've calculated roughly that you can make at least 1.5 billion dollars for each Harry Potter movie. Oh, my head is starting to ache again when I think about it now

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "I can't help it. Who made you not willing to spend five million dollars at the beginning?"

Kerry glared at him, gnashing his teeth and said, "Xiao, if you want to talk about it again, I'll break up with you."

Xiao Yunhai shrugged his shoulders and said, "well, I promise I won't say it later. Kerry, your Hollywood movies are very good in China now. It's a waste of water to beat our domestic movies. To be honest, have the eight major cinemas of your country discussed for a long time to use this kind of intensive attack to compete for our Chinese market

Kerry nodded and said, "yes. Which movie will be released at what time is determined by our careful study. The purpose is to occupy the market share and play the momentum of Hollywood. If it wasn't for the fact that your film and Television Bureau was too strict in vetting films, we would have seen more films

Xiao Yunhai said: "in the past month, the total box office of China's domestic films is less than one tenth of your total. Kerry, your purpose has been achieved. "

Kerry said angrily, "to what? Xiao, your Chinese government is so hateful. Seeing that we spent $1.2 billion to buy Huaxia cinema, we promised others to build new cinemas nationwide. It's just a slapstick. "

Xiao Yunhai argued: "Kerry, this can't blame the Chinese government. It's because you played too much. Huaxia cinema occupies 60% of the market share. You didn't even leave a mouthful of soup for Huaxia. This has reached the bottom line of the government. Huaxia will never sit back and watch its entertainment industry gradually eroded by you. Do you understand? "

"But we didn't do it against the law of business," Kerry said

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "it is normal business behavior for the Chinese government to agree to one or two companies to build new cinema lines, and it also does not violate commercial laws. Isn't it? "

Kerry said angrily, "you are playing on the edge."

Xiao Yunhai said: "yes. But the edge ball plays well, still can enter the hole

Jesse said, "you two, it's no use arguing here. What should the Chinese government do? What you say doesn't count. "

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "yes. Kerry, you look so excited. Why? "

Kerry sighed: "do you know how much we paid to get the cinema in Huaxia? The big eight Hollywood film companies have drained almost all of their working capital, and the economic crisis continues to fluctuate, so we have no money to make moviesXiao Yunhai was surprised and said, "No. I think you've made a lot of fun. Every company has several films to shoot. "

Kerry said with a wry smile: "we have mortgaged our shares of Huaxia cinema to the bank. More than 400 billion shares actually lent only 160 billion yuan, an average of 20 billion yuan for a company. Damn it. You're just too tricky

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "it's your fault. In terms of financial resources, those big companies in our country are no worse than you, but why don't they fight. It's not because that part of the cinema is not worth the price, so they gave up. You spent more than 400 billion yuan to buy a 200 billion yuan theater line. In our Chinese language, you are the big loser. "

Kerry said: "we don't have a choice. Forget it. I can tell you if your Infernal Affairs need to use our Chinese cinema

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "thank you. However, I have already found starlight cinema and signed the contract

Kerry said, "that's a pity. I had a hunch that the film would be hot. "

Xiao Yunhai said, "that's for sure."

Three days later, Infernal Affairs was approved. Xiao Yunhai did not waste any time. He immediately uploaded the trailer to the major video websites. Those famous portals also published the release information of Infernal Affairs in succession.

At the same time, the 100000 posters Xiao Yunhai asked Jesse to help print were pasted all over the bookstores of Lijian in the United States.

These publicity expenses cost Xiao Yunhai 120 million US dollars.

Of course, the effect is also very good.
