Chapter 298

At dinner time, Jonathan, a famous Hollywood director, made an appointment to visit the house. After getting an inquiry from Andrew, the housekeeper, he immediately said that he could come over today to talk about investment issues with Jin Xiantai.

After all, the fracture of funds has already made him a little worried.

Since Kim has shown a willingness to invest, Jonathan will not give up.

Even if Jin Xiantai is a person who has been warned by the five major film and television companies in private channels that he is not allowed to contact, there is no threat to the people who have all their wealth in this film and are about to go bankrupt.

Jonathon didn't want to go bankrupt, and he didn't want his hard-earned money to go to sleep in the street.

So if there is any chance in front of him, he needs to seize it.

As for the five major film companies?

Let them go to hell!

Instead of worrying about being blocked by the five major film companies in the future, it is better to worry about how to avoid bankruptcy.

So Jonathan made a choice.

"Hello, Mr. Jonathan. I've heard of your name for a long time. You are the leading director in Hollywood."

After seeing Jonathan's first words, Jin Xiantai was very flattering.

After all, good words don't cost money. What does it matter to say them.

Jin Xiantai does not want to show a high-ranking appearance, but it will make people disgusted.

As a former lowland, Jin Xiantai hated that kind of conduct, so he would not let himself become that kind of person.

He was so approachable that he didn't look like a rich man at all, which really surprised Jonathan and made a good first impression of him.

This is a good start.

"It's very kind of you. I'm just an ordinary director. I'm not as good as you said. I'm a big player in Hollywood."

Jonathan is also modest in the face of Kim's compliment, not as rebellious as some other famous directors.

"Sit down, please."

Did not let housekeeper Andrew lead the way, Jin Xiantai himself led Jonathan to the study, personally received him.

For Jin Xiantai's personal reception, Jonathan was a little flattered.

"Would you like something to drink? I have a lot of wine here, but I don't like it. Sometimes I'll have some mint

Jin Xiantai asked after Jonathan took his seat.

"No! no no I don't drink

Jonathan quickly said he didn't drink.

Jonathan was a guest when he came to the door. As a host, he always had to entertain him. It was a matter of etiquette and could not be vague.

So Jin Xiantai asked, "how about some tea? I have famous tea imported from China

It doesn't matter if you don't drink or drink tea, so Jonathan doesn't refuse tea.

"Andrew, please make us a pot of tea and use Longjing."

After giving orders to his housekeeper, Jin Xiantai directly enters the theme.

"Please forgive me for being direct. I don't like to be polite. You will understand me after long contact with me. I want to know how much profit you will give me in the future if I invest 60 million dollars? After all, I'm a businessman. It's our business talk. "

That's right. Jonathan didn't doubt anything.

After all, the United States is such an environment, and it is normal to talk about business in business.

Sixty million dollars is nothing to the rich, but it's not a fraction.

No matter what, if you pay $60 million, you have to know what you're going to get?

Even Jonathan himself would ask the same question as Kim.

For Jin Xiantai's direct, joannson doesn't resent it. Westerners just like to be direct, but they are not used to those who are roundabout.

So joanson sat up straight and solemnly replied to Jin Xiantai: "I invested 130 million dollars in this film myself. Originally, Lion Gate film and television had to invest 130 million dollars, but they were withdrawing money in the middle of the way, so the film could not be shot normally. If the film can not be completed, then my personal investment will be completely wasted.

According to the agreement with me, they will take 50% of the film's net income, that is to say, they will take half of the film's net income with me. But now that such a situation has arisen, I am willing to give up part of my own interests to the people who can provide funds to support me. How about 80% of the net profit income distribution? "

Although Jonathan seems to be losing money, it is always better to be able to distribute 20% of net profit than bankruptcy.

So Jonathan's a little bit smart.

What's more, the world's population base is ten times more than that of Jin Xiantai in his previous life. Considering this, even if Jonathan takes 20% of the net income distribution, it will never be a small goal.So it's no wonder Jonathan made the offer.

Of course, the price was clearly well thought out by Jonathan.

Nodding gently, Jin Xiantai said: "I am very satisfied with this investment distribution plan. But are you sure $60 million is really enough? "

"60 million dollars is absolutely enough. I swear to God." It is obvious that Jin Xiantai is interested in investing in his own films.

Therefore, while Jonathan was excited, he also made a promise to Jin Xiantai. It was absolutely $60 million short to ensure that the film could continue to be filmed.

"I'm sorry, I don't quite understand. Lion Gate's divestment of 130 million dollars is not a gap of 130 million dollars? Why is $60 million enough now? "

However, Jin Xiantai did not immediately say that he promised to invest in this matter, but asked himself a more confused question.

Indeed, according to the truth, it is true that Jin Xiantai is a little curious.

"When I heard about the film, I didn't know why the film was about to withdraw from the film. In fact, some of the actors and actresses didn't agree with this story They think that we should hire famous actors and make great changes in the plot... "

After explaining the whole story through joannson, Jin Xiantai understands why "Lion Gate" has withdrawn its capital. In a strict sense, it is just putting Jonathan together.

In Hollywood, Jonathan is a famous director. Yes, but he is also a director with great personality and ideas. In order to make money in the early stage, he had to obey the arrangement of big film and television companies to shoot films that he thought were rubbish, but they made a lot of money.

Now he is successful and has some money in his hand, so he decided to get rid of the stranglehold of big film and television companies and plan to shoot a film according to his own ideas. He can make money and prove himself at the same time.

But there are some things you don't want to do.

Lions Gate has played with him now.

Don't you want to be an independent producer?

After I make you a great director, you and I will go our separate ways, right?

Good!

Then I will destroy you!

You don't think you have two money!

Then let you go broke.

Then there was a situation like this.

Basically, from Jonathan's description, Jin Xiantai judged that this might be the case.

It's just that joannson doesn't understand that.

However, Jin Xiantai did not intend to tell him, after all, it was useless.

Jonathan's idea of going independent producer is very firm, even if he throws out an olive branch, he won't accept it.

Of course, it's also that joannson doesn't want to be restrained any more. After all, he wants to express some of his attitudes and ideas, so he can't do it again.

Jin Xiantai can understand this.

Fortunately, Jin Xiantai did not want to recruit Jonathan, just wanted to break through the relationship between Jonathan and his company.

Soon, Jin Xiantai made a decision, only 60 million dollars.

What does this amount of money mean to him now.

What's more, the money may not be at a loss. Maybe it will make a lot of money.

So Jin Xiantai pretended to be silent for a moment, and then he said to Jonathan who was a little nervous: "I know that the five major Hollywood film and television companies privately advise practitioners not to get involved with me. In such a case, if you accept my funds, don't you worry about the impact? Don't let you get stuck in Hollywood. "

It seems like a kind explanation of the situation, but it is not Jin Xiantai's trial.

It's not impossible to want his own $60 million, but Jonathan has to show a little attitude. Now Kim Hyun Tai has a little bit of "crocodile" style.

Jonathan laughed bitterly at the speech, and then said to Jin Xiantai, "go to hell with them. If you want me to be afraid of the five major film companies, it's better for me to be afraid of going bankrupt. What's more, they don't know what to do with me. It's just limiting my films.

However, as far as I know, you have a cinema line of 3000 cinemas. If you can, my film will be shown in your cinema instead of through the cinema of the five major film and television companies. It is not impossible for them to do so. "

Ha ha!

Jonathan still had the idea.

Speaking of it, he must have considered the problems he would encounter, such as the five major film and television companies restricting the release of his films.

Therefore, joannson accepted his own investment, and he could make the film show in his own cinemas by virtue of this relationship.There are no fools and fools in this world.

Jin Xiantai sighed a little in his heart and then said, "you're right, but don't you think my cinema is smaller?"

Jonathan put away his sad face and put on a strange smile.

"If you are interested, in fact, there is an opportunity for you. As far as I know, after the death of the owner of Mount cinema, the partner of Lion Gate film, his sons were very happy about their family property. Moreover, these guys were second generation ancestors, and they didn't know how to manage. They just wanted to sell the family run cinema and take the money "I'm going to spend a lot of money, and lions pictures is also thinking about lowering the price and taking the Monterey cinema from these Playboys."

Ooh!

This is unexpected news.

Jonathan revealed that the news let Jin Xiantai as a matter of fact surprised.

Jin Xiantai is no stranger to Monte family cinema. Since he has a small cinema line with 3000 cinemas in his hand, he has studied related industries.

Monte cinema, the largest cinema operator on the west coast, has 12880 theaters.

At this time, Jin Xiantai began to think that if he could win the Monte cinema line and add 3000 California cinemas in his hand, he would certainly become the largest cinema operator on the west coast.

At that time, even if the five major film companies continue to suppress themselves, they can ignore them and even play with their own.

At the thought of this, Jin Xiantai couldn't help but feel hot.

At this point, Jonathan continued, "in terms of funding, I don't think you're going to have any problem, Mr. William, at least more than the big five, aren't you. If the five major film companies want to peep at the Monte cinema, I think I have to find a bank loan, but you will never use it. "

Jonathan's words, just said the advantages of Jin Xiantai.

That's right!

I'm going to throw money at the Monte cinema!

Now Jin Xiantai made up his mind.

Then Jin Xiantai held out his hand to Jonathan with a smile and said to him, "thank you very much for the news. I am willing to invest 100 million dollars in your film. As for the share, I think it's still 50%, but I hope there will be cooperation opportunities in the future."

A peach in return for a plum.

Jin Xiantai is also a good person.

At the same time, Jin Xiantai also fully understands why Jonathan told himself this news. It is very simple, hoping to make the Lion Gate film industry unhappy.
