Chapter 805

In the conference room, only the leaders of the four major publishing houses were left. The atmosphere inside was very dignified, and the air seemed to solidify.

Cole looked at the pictures and materials on the table. A cold light flashed in his eyes and said, "no, we can't wait for death. Let Xiao Hu come."

Darren immediately agreed and said, "yes, Xiao must be taught a lesson. It's 200 million dollars. If you're kidding, he dare to open his mouth. "

Louis said, "what about these things? If I can't give him the check before 2 p.m., I'm afraid he'll go to a lawyer right away. Once it spreads out, we will have a serious crisis of trust. The consequences are more than $200 million. "

"This matter has a big impact. I need to ask the boss," said Greene, who has not spoken for a long time

The other three looked at each other, almost at the same time, took out the mobile phone.

Ten minutes later, the four people sat together again and said their boss's instructions. Without exception, they were all in one word.

Four people discussed, and finally Cole called Xiao Yunhai, and the phone was connected quickly.

"Mr. Xiao, our boss has promised you two conditions. 200 million dollars is OK, but it's too short for us to raise so much money. Therefore, we hope you can give us two days to deliver the 200 million dollar check to you by 2 p.m. the day after tomorrow. "

Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "Mr. Cole, are you kidding? It's only 200 million dollars. It takes two days to raise money. Ha ha, I think you have ulterior motives. Tell me, what means are you going to use to deal with me?

Cole said, "Mr. Xiao, you misunderstood me. We really have difficulties. Two hundred million dollars may not be a big sum for you. You can make several hundred million dollars for one movie. But for our publishing house, it's not so. It will affect our normal operation. Mr. Xiao, we enjoyed our cooperation in the last Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone. Please give us a little time

Although Cole said pitifully, Xiao Yunhai didn't believe a word in his heart. The four most famous publishing houses in Europe can't get 200 million US dollars. They are playing a joke on the world.

However, Xiao Yunhai didn't want to press too hard, so he said, "I can only give you one day at most. Before 2:00 tomorrow afternoon, my bank card must see 800 million dollars. One cent less, these things will be sent to the lawyer. Besides, I hope you don't give me any tricks. Otherwise, it will be more than 200 million dollars. "

With that, Xiao Yunhai hung up the phone directly.

Cole's angry face was blue and white, and finally said, "this Xiao is really hateful."

Greene said: "no way, who let us be caught by him. It's better to find a hotel and wait for news. I hope the boss has a way. "

The four left in anger without even calling on Jesse.

Jesse stood in front of her office window with a glass of red wine and looked at the four people who were about to get on the bus. "These greedy guys are so rude that they don't say a word to their host when they want to leave."

Xiao Yunhai back to the villa, he came to his study, playing computer all afternoon.

I thought I would get a lot of calls for help, but I didn't expect that until 6 p.m., there was no phone call.

Xiao Yunhai has a faint uneasiness in his heart.

He didn't believe that these niggards would honestly hand over 200 million dollars to himself. Since I haven't asked for a favor, I'm afraid it's going to be tough.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yunhai is not only not afraid, but also eager to try.

In the past life, he was not a peaceful man. When he came to this world, he learned almost invincible Kung Fu. He was fearless in his heart. He even expected them to come over and show his skill.

Before that, he and Kerry, Jesse had made an appointment to have dinner together in the evening. Seeing that it was almost time, Xiao Yunhai put on his clothes and drove to the appointed French restaurant.

Kerry and Jesse seem to have just arrived and are negotiating with the service staff with the menu.

Xiao Yunhai walked over and said with a smile, "Hi, Kerry, we haven't seen each other for a long time. What have you been up to lately

Kerry gave the menu to the waiter and told him to have three cups of coffee before he said to Xiao Yunhai, "I have been in the Harry Potter and the chamber of Secrets for more than two months. You know, this movie is now our MGM cornucopia, I dare not be careless

Xiao Yunhai sat down and said with a smile, "that's right."

Kerry sighed and said, "Xiao, you Chinese are really hard to understand."

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yunhai asked? I didn't understand. "

Kerry said with a gloomy face: "don't mention, the box office of our MGM film in China last month was simply unbearable. The first two months of the fire of science fiction movies, to last month, suddenly encountered Waterloo. The big investment of 600 million US dollars in China has only won the box office of 800 million Chinese dollars. I can't believe my eyes when I see the report. I don't understand why? "When Xiao Yunhai was shooting a crazy series of movies, MGM's science fiction blockbuster "alien remains" landed on theaters around the world. Unfortunately, it only earned $1.4 billion at the box office, which was a total loss.

Not only MGM, but other Hollywood blockbusters are no better at the box office. Especially in Huaxia, the decline was the most serious.

Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "Kerry, how long has it taken you from the beginning of preparation to the final completion of your" alien remains "

Kerry was stunned, thought for a moment, and said, "about five months."

"What about the original" dinosaur wars "and" Star Trek? "

" the dinosaur wars took two years, while the "Star Trek" was one and a half years. Do you mean we're too eager for quick success to make movies seriously

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "isn't it? I haven't seen this movie, but I'm sure alien remains can't catch up with star trek in detail, can I

Kerry nodded and said, "I admit that. Although the efficiency of your magic special effects company has improved a lot, it is really a bit of a hurry to complete a large-scale production of more than 70% of a special effect lens in five months. "

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "of course, this is only a secondary reason. The real main reason is that Chinese fans have been tired of your movies. Since the beginning of the year, you Hollywood launched a massive attack on the Chinese film industry. All action movies, science fiction films and magic movies have all entered the cinema. Kerry, there's a saying in China, it's too much. If you are a fan, you can't bear to see several or even more than a dozen movies of the same type in half a year. "

"Well, you've already overdrawn the box office potential of Hollywood movies in order to make money. Unless you can make innovations or show the same type of film at regular intervals, the results will be the same. "
