King of Gossip

Chapter 443 Threat

This sentence exposed William Campbell's ambition even more. Moreover, he really guessed that "Magic Apprentice" is more than five, but seven. In addition to the first and second episodes, there are eight in total. Originally, Chen Jin wanted to hide a little, but he didn't expect to guess it for him.

As for "The Impossible", there are no less than five in Chen Jin's plan. Among them, he plans to cancel the second episode that is criticized by the audience. He will write two more excellent ones by himself. Of course, there may be more than five. As long as the movie sells well, just like the "007" series, dozens of them are not a problem. .

Chen Jin originally wanted to pinch it, but he still has a lot of wonderful ideas in his head. Now he just doesn't have time to sort out those things. For someone who wants to eat a big fat man in one bite, as long as he is sincere, Chen Jin is willing to fulfill him and nodded, "Thank you, Mr. Campbell, for you. I'm very happy to accept the kindness.

William Campbell's behavior put a lot of pressure on everyone. Obviously, this guy was going to bleed a lot. Moreover, seeing that he and Chen Jin were singing together, it seemed that they were about to reach an agreement, and everyone could not help but be under more pressure.

After saying this, Chen Jin stopped talking and was still enjoying good wine and snacks, while William Campbell seemed to have a tacit understanding with him. He was also drinking and tasting snacks. Even at this time, as if he found that the snacks on the plate were very delicious, he smiled and raised his glass to Chen Jin, "Dear KING, this You made the dessert, didn't you? I've heard everyone's praise for a long time, and I only had a chance to taste it today. It's really delicious!"

Chen Jin also raised his glass. The two took a sip and said with a smile, "Thank you, dear Mr. Campbell. As a successful playboy, you always know some ways to please women, don't you?"

After saying that, the two people laughed, but they made the other four popular. Although there was no sign, it was really a big pear mountain.

The first one who couldn't help it was Tyron of MGM. He also first picked up his glass and signaled to Chen Jin, "Happy cooperation, dear KING, we have had such a precedent of cooperation. This time, out of greater sincerity, I am willing to take over you and William at a issuance fee of 3% below the standard baseline. Campbell said the terms of the contract.

He can't help it, but he doesn't have an imbalance in his mentality. He has a good grasp. As we all know, Chen Jin throws such attractive conditions that he will naturally not be satisfied with the last condition that MGM won the distribution rights of "The Ransom Storm" and "The Stone Break" at a rate of 2% below the standard baseline. He needs more Low.

Therefore, it is impossible not to reduce it at all, but if it drops too much, it will make Chen Jin want more, and 1% is obviously a good start. Both Edward and William Campbell, who seems to have a tacit understanding with Chen Jin, give Tylen an admiration.

Chen Jin didn't seem to see the eye contact between them. He smiled easily and raised his glass to Tylen and took a sip, but he didn't say that the cooperation was happy. "Mr. Tylen, I don't want to repeat too much about how generous the conditions were just now. I think my generosity needs more sincerity."

Edward of Global finally asked, "KING, you can talk about your conditions. Maybe we all know more about each other." This guy is old and cunning. There is no loss in MGM's Tyron's first offer. This is a public quotation period. He can change it at any time. The important thing is that he only reduced it by 1%. He did not make everyone in trouble and passive. Although they are actually passive now.

But Chen Jin is different. As soon as he said, the bottom line was exposed. Edward and others can prescribe the medicine according to the prescription and grind it slowly until the conditions are met - it's very simple. One side already has a bottom line, and one side doesn't have it. Then, if the side that doesn't have it hides well, it will inevitably get more benefits. Benefit.

Of course, this is not infinite without a bottom line. Chen Jin is very smart. He looked at everyone who seemed to be looking forward to it with a smile and shrugged his shoulders. "Of course, I think we really need to know more," he thought deliberately. "Since I can guarantee the box office with certainty, I can also have the courage to give up 10%. Interest, then, I think, I should also expect you to have 10% sincerity," he raised his eyebrows with a smile. "Guys, what do you think?"

As soon as he said this, except for himself, everyone frowned and slandered in their hearts that this guy was indeed a lion's mouth, and he was not afraid of the wind flashing his tongue. However, it is not easy for everyone to scold Chen Jin for being shameless. Business? It's all talked about it. If you make a condition, I'll cut it.

Brothers, it's natural to reach an agreement. At this time, Vladimir of Columbia Pictures stared at Chen Jin and said slowly, "But your sequels can't guarantee anything?"

Chen Jin was more poisonous and said with a smile, "Mr. Vladimir, as I have said before, if we think the sequel is risky, we can consider only talking about the current two movies."

Vlaki almost suffocated to death. Although there was no guarantee in the back, no matter how insecurity there was no security, Chen Jin's signboard was the guarantee. If Chen Jin hadn't thrown the so-called big pie of the sequel at once, how could everyone be so excited and suffering?

That sentence is good. It's okay if you don't see it. If you see it, let everyone let go. How can you pinch it, more or less, it's all the meat on the legs of mosquitoes. What's more, Chen Jin is still a mosquito as big as an elephant.

At this time, Paramount's Baker shook his head with a smile, "KING, I think we all have to show more sincerity. Well, you give us a more reasonable standard, and we will all think about it."

Chen Jin won't say it again this time and shook his head with a smile. "Mr. Baker, everyone, I think I have expressed my sincerity very clearly. Next, it's time for you to make a decision."

shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's getting late now. I came to discuss with you as soon as I got off the plane. If you insist, I think we can make an appointment again."

His energetic appearance seems to have just got off the plane, which is more than a hundred times better than Edward's hearts. However, Chen Jin is obviously threatening, which means that he can't talk about it.

As for talking about it next time, it's just a perfunctory sentence, not a contract. Can you still use this to question others? He just needs to say lightly, "Oh, I'm sorry, you know that time is tight. I've already given it to the next family." Because He is the controller.

It can even be imagined that Chen Jin is afraid that as soon as he comes out of this door, he will start to call Warner and other production companies who have been staring at him, and then he will be sent to others. In this world, if you don't do business, the opportunity will be fleeting. Just like the 21st Century Fox, how much money has been earned now, and hasn't he taken enough regret medicine?

Edward seemed to have the deepest experience. First of all, he surrendered, "Well, KING, our relationship has always been very good. In order to show my sincerity and our friendship, I decided to drop five percentage points directly on the standard baseline. I think we should be able to sign the contract." With that, he raised his glass to signal.

The others were surprisingly calm at this time. It was not that they did not bid, but to see what Chen Jin wanted. This time, Chen Jin simply did not even hold the glass, but sat upright. His arms were on the table, and the ten fingers of his hands were corresponding to each other. His expression was very serious for the first time. "Guys, I don't think you have understood what I'm talking about. I emphasized the basis of our cooperation before, which is also the premise of our friendly cooperation in the future."

A very simple sentence stopped, but the threat is very strong. Everyone is very clear about what it means to cooperate all the time. In fact, the goal discussed between Chen Jin and Chen Zichen has been achieved, that is, the standard baseline is five percentage points lower. However, talking about business with these vampires can naturally be extorted. After much extortion, he deliberately put on a serious and unhappy posture.

However, the opponents are all old foxes. At this time, Paramount's Baker did not seem to be affected by his threat. Instead, he said coldly, "KING, you also know what the basis of cooperation is, but your greedy attitude makes people unable to accept it at all."

It seems that he also began to threaten Chen Jin. If he can't talk about it, he will break up. More than half of the big producer and distributors in Hollywood can sit on the scene. Moreover, they are likely to boycott Chen Jin together with others. In this way, Chen Jin's life will be difficult.

However, in fact, all this is just futile, because it is impossible for them to control the distribution channels at all, let alone unite with other manufacturers and distributors. So, how can they scare and threaten Chen Jin?

It's very simple. Publishers don't mean to have cinemas. Even if they have cinemas, they are very pitiful. The United States is not Hong Kong Island. Jiahe only owns one-fifth of them on Hong Kong Island, while in the United States, there are countless large and small cinema lines.

Now there are almost 4,000 cinemas in the United States, and 20 years later, nearly 6,000 are distributed in different parts of the United States. The reason why large producer and distributors can gain an advantage in the dialogue with cinemas and even control the voice of these cinemas is that they have countless films in their hands. Source, that is the basis for the survival of a cinema.

That is to say, only after mastering the source of the film can you have enough voice in the theater line. At this time, the problem arises. Who is Chen Jin? "genius screenwriter", "100 million screenwriter", "withdrawal list script". Fifteen movie scripts were released last year, all of which were sold well. Together, I'm afraid it's no less than 4 billion US dollars.
