Chapter 1922 Long-Term Plan (First Update)

A phone call from Japan's Ito Yokado came to Yin Jun, but he didn't say much to them.

The boy directly asked them to discuss with Le Yiling, and then stopped answering.

Instead, Yin Jun answered Suzuki Toshifumi's call, and the two talked about a lot of things.

It can be seen that Suzuki Toshifumi doesn't really want Yin Jun to interfere with 7-11, even if Yin Jun is the largest shareholder and will give him 2% of the shares.

Once the overall situation has been decided, Suzuki Toshifumi is no longer in a hurry to get shares.

Yin Jun definitely couldn't have treated him badly in this matter, so it would only be reasonable to wait until he had made achievements before asking for the shares.

Even Suzuki Toshifumi suggested to Yin Jun that he should give him shares in an honest way, such as 1% after opening 20,000 stores, and another 1% after opening 50,000 stores.

In this way, Ito-Yokado has nothing to say, and because they don't need to give shares, of course they are happy to see it.

At that time, these 2% shares can be washed away and truly used by the Suzuki family.

Yin Jun agreed.

Suzuki Toshifumi is a heroic talent, and of course he will not always be at the mercy of Yin Jun.

2% of the shares are good, but if you hold them in your hands, you will always be controlled by Yin Jun and have to do things according to his words.

But he is unwilling to take 2% of the shares. After all, 7-11 has successfully been acquired by Yin Jun, who has 60% of the shares. He is already the largest shareholder.

To put it bluntly, when one day Yin Jun becomes unhappy, tears up the agreement, and demands the power of 7-11 according to the shares in his hand, or asks him to get out of Suzuki Toshifumi, he really has no ability to resist at all.

Therefore, Suzuki Toshifumi thought of this method to get his own shares.

With 2% of the shares, he already has a future in his life, and he no longer has to worry about the livelihood of future generations.

The young man could see what Suzuki Toshifumi meant, but he didn't care.

Giving 2% of the shares to Suzuki Toshifumi was something that Yin Jun had decided long ago, because it would allow Suzuki Toshifumi to better devote himself to his work.

A 7-11 with Suzuki Toshifumi is completely different from a 7-11 without Suzuki Toshifumi.

For 7-Eleven, which is worth more than 200 billion US dollars, Yin Jun must be tolerant.

However, Yin Jun still rejected Ito-Yokado's request that each company hold 50% of the shares, which would be more convenient for management and more conducive to the development of 7-11.

Don't talk about him, even Le Yiling who called him to tell him was dismissive.

What a joke!

The bet has already been won, why should I let you?

If my Ajun loses, will you, Ito Yokado, think that Yin Jun is a good person, so you won’t buy the 20% shares in Yin Jun’s hands?

Obviously impossible!

So Le Yiling directly and resolutely refused and asked them to act in accordance with the gambling contract immediately.

Then in terms of management rights, Le Yiling agreed with Yin Jun's idea.

Seeing that 7-11 is developing so well in Japan, the Japanese really have their own way, so it is a good thing to let them run it.

Anyway, if they manage well, Kirin Group also owns 60% of the shares, which is equivalent to making more money for us!

Of course Ito-Yokado doesn't want to give up. Recently, they have been communicating with Le Yiling and promised various conditions, but they just don't want to give up their shares.

This is bound to be a tug of war.

Yin Jun was determined to cooperate with Ito Yokado, so it was naturally impossible to blackmail him with a gambling agreement, so he could only grind it out slowly.

Yin Jun is not worried about this at all. In a month or two at most, the Japanese will give in after seeing his firm attitude.

After all, if it is delayed for too long, they are also worried that the Kirin Group will become angry and not only come up with a gambling agreement directly, but will also use its status as a major shareholder to deprive them of their management rights.

Now that he is done with Microsoft and 7-11, Yin Jun is still in the mood to watch a movie.

When the movie ended and the English subtitles of "Yu Rentai's Works" appeared, Yin Jun unconsciously applauded together with the audience next to him.

Sitting next to him was Yu Rentai, who was a little embarrassed, but full of pride.

The reason I'm embarrassed is that this "Scream" is Yin Jun's work, and he is just the executor, so Yin Jun's praise for him is a bit deserved.

The reason why Yu Rentai is full of pride is that he made this movie very well, with no missing elements of horror and horror.

One and a half months after its release, the North American box office has already reached more than 75 million, and there is no problem in reaching 80 million in the end.

The production cost of "Scream" was 15 million U.S. dollars, of which 5 million U.S. dollars were spent on special effects, and the total cost for publicity and distribution was 10 million U.S. dollars.

Calculated in this way, the cost of 25 million and the North American box office of 80 million is almost a 50% share, so it is already relying on the box office to recover the cost and make money.

The copyright rights in Asia, Europe and South America have also been negotiated at this time, and the price is almost 30 million US dollars.

If the screening effect is good this time, then maybe there will be a global screening next time.

The most profitable thing about horror movies is actually not the box office, but the income from video tapes.

Anyone who likes watching horror movies, or who needs a little excitement to release their souls, will buy some videos of horror movies to take home and watch in the dead of night or when there is thunder and lightning.

Although horror film lovers are only a small number of fans and cannot achieve the miracle of "Spider-Man" with video and CD sales exceeding 120 million US dollars in one week, over the past few years, a good-looking and best-selling horror film has sold seven Sales volume of 80 million US dollars is easy.

Compared with the share of the movie, the income from the video tape is almost free.

So as long as it is a good horror film, it will definitely make a lot of money, and it will continue to make money selling video tapes and CDs for the next seven, eight, or more than ten years.

Piece by piece, "Scream" will bring a net profit of US$100 million to United Artists Film Company, which is just around the corner.

It is Yu Rentai's first time making a movie in Hollywood and he can achieve such good results. He is certainly worthy of pride.

Just a few days ago, a film company came to Yu Rentai and wanted him to help make a movie. The starting price was 1 million U.S. dollars in salary plus dividends.

However, like his "predecessors" Yu Yunchang and Chen Xunqi, Yu Rentai directly refused.

Since Yu Rentai himself has not established himself in Hollywood, how can he possibly make such unpredictable films?

Secondly, when Yu Rentai came to China, he had studied in the United States and worked at ABC, and he knew deeply that Americans looked down upon people from Hong Kong.

He only left Yin Jun when he was an idiot and went to film in an American film company.

Even if Yin Jun agrees that he can take over making movies by himself, it won't be now, but only after he has completely mastered this genre and has accumulated enough experience.

For example, last year Yu Yunchang and Chen Xunqi, in addition to filming "The Sixth Sense", "The X-Files" and "Saw", they also found time to film a low-cost black-starred movie for Universal Pictures. The horror film cost only 5 million U.S. dollars. After its release, it went up all the way and earned 30 million in box office revenue. It is said that the video and peripheral rights were sold for 20 million.

Not only did the two receive a total of 8 million US dollars in salary plus dividends, but they also received the gratitude of many black actors. Incidentally, Yin Jun, "our friend" of black people, gained even more support from the black community.

Yu Rentai is already 35 years old. Of course he knows that as long as he continues to make progress and maintain his pursuit of movies, all these glory and wealth will come, so he is really not in a hurry.

"In the second half of this year, I'm going to shoot "The Ghost Bride."" Yu Rentai said to Yin Jun as he came out and sat in the coffee shop, "It doesn't require too many actors, but the special effects production should be better... The special effects in Hollywood are so powerful. If the ghost movies in Xiangjiang had these effects, I'm afraid it would be even better."

"Didn't you see so many Chinese faces in the digital field? They are from Xiangjiang." Yin Jun said with a smile, "Luo Lixian brings many people here every year to learn, and many people also learn a thing or two about special effects. Years have passed. Last year, Uncle Ying's "Mr. Zombie 4" and "Happy Ghost 3" had special effects made by them, and the audience also bought into it."

"But without a complete industrial system, they can't produce the best special effects." Yu Rentai said, "When I was doing the special effects for "Scream", it happened that "Resident Evil" was also doing it, tsk tsk, then It’s really amazing! Once this movie came out, people knew what real special effects were!”

In February and March last year, Spielberg, who was very diligent in his film career, began to prepare training and venues.

It has been more than five months since the filming was completed, but the special effects are still not done well. One-third of the staff in the digital field are working on this movie, which shows how huge the special effects are.

Of course, this is also because today's computers are not developing fast enough and various software and hardware cannot keep up with demand.

If the same special effects were done in 2020, basically a special effects team of more than ten people would be able to complete them all in one month, and they could do even better.

But in this era, such efficiency and effect can be considered groundbreaking, and this is where Yu Rentai's surprise comes from.

"Just wait, it's time to recommend special effects only after our team is up and running." Yin Jun said, "Fortunately, I have these arrangements in the United States. It will be easier to use in the future."

Yu Rentai nodded unconsciously after hearing this.

Only Yin Jun would do this.

Others are seeing comedy and action movies as good-looking and profitable, so they rush to make these movies.

But Yin Jun had to start planning a few years ago and began to use special effects and industry to develop movies.

In the long run, Yin Jun's hard work will have the last laugh!
