Chapter 564 Golden Harvest's Great Luck

"Oh, I see, let's drink morning tea tomorrow morning... Well, come and pick me up tomorrow!"

After putting down the phone, Yin Jun returned to the chair next to the sofa and sat down.

Zou Wenhuai and Cai Yongchang sat on the narrow sofa, but they were still smiling.

In fact, their smiles haven't changed since they entered the door a few minutes ago.

Originally they were supposed to appear at the celebration party tonight, but because the joy came so suddenly, they didn't invite important guests for a while, so they simply asked He Guanchang to take the reporters to have a big meal today, The two of them showed up for a while, then went out to Yin Jun's side.

"Jun Shao, I forgot to tell you just now, I will fly to America early tomorrow morning, do you have anything to say or something to bring there?" Cai Yongchang said excitedly when Yin Jun sat down.

"Leave tomorrow?" Yin Jun smiled, "Mr. Cai, I'm a little impatient!"

"Can I not be impatient?" Cai Yongchang said, "Our Golden Harvest showed his face in the United States after a long time. How can I not go and get acquainted? I can also bring Aaron with me so that he can get to know more in the United States." some people."

Aaron is Cheng Long.

Now that he has finished filming Killer's Trench, he can't get involved in the post-production, so he can only go back to Xiangjiang to rest.

Filming such a killer trench made Cheng Long a mess. He was played like a monkey by an American director. Many aspects seemed very wrong to Cheng Long, but his opinions were not listened to by others.

At any rate, Cheng Long is also a famous star in Xiangjiang. He can't be said to be number one, but he can definitely be a top five movie star.

The key to being tossed about like a nobody is to look down on him from the bottom of his heart, which makes Cheng Long very uncomfortable.

But Cheng Long is Cheng Long, and his forbearance has reached home, just like when he wiped away his tears in the bathroom and continued to drink with Gu Long, Cheng Long also endured it at the shooting scene, and he used 120% of his thoughts , to strive to do well in every request of the director.

However, after he came back, he also complained to his new godfather, He Guanchang, saying that he couldn't do this next time, it wasn't his style at all.

He Guanchang treated Cheng Long really well. He comforted Cheng Long in a few moments, and recently gave him a sum of money to let him take a group of brothers to eat, drink and have fun.

At this time, Cheng Long is far from the Uncle Long thirty years later, he is still like an ordinary young man, he likes wine, sex, fun, and excitement, so He Guanchang's approach really makes him feel relieved , forgetting the humiliation in America.

To say that the top executives of Golden Harvest are really optimistic about Cheng Long.

For such an opportunity to show his face, Cheng Long must be taken with him, so that he will be reported by Hollywood newspapers and media several times, and his face will appear in front of Americans. This is a huge advertisement.

When Cai Yongchang went to Hollywood this time, he definitely wanted to be with Spielberg and Lucas. This kind of opportunity to show his face is better than ordinary ones.

For Golden Harvest, the most important thing is the US market.

The United States represents the center of the world. Once they enter it, their reputation in the film industry all over the world will become even louder. Needless to say, there is no second film company in Xiangjiang that can compare with them. .

Such benefits made Cai Yongchang anxious to go to the United States.

"Ah Jun, I heard that in two days, Mr. Lei Shidong will contact more cinemas to release our film. Is this true?" Zou Wenhuai asked Yin Jun full of expectation.

The relationship between him and there is just very ordinary. If it weren't for the sake of money, Lucas wouldn't have asked him to play with him at all.

As far as the present is concerned, when Lucas called Yin Jun yesterday, he was lamenting that it would be great if he paid for the 5 million US dollars, so that he could enjoy one-third of the rights instead of the current sixty million dollars. one-third.

But Yin Jun can't understand this kind of people who are so good at taking advantage of it.

On the surface, he only got one-sixth of the profit, but the problem is that Lucas didn't pay a penny. The salaries and expenses of a large number of people were all paid by Yin Jun and Zou Wen. He is equivalent to a white man. earn.

Moreover, "Raiders of the Lost Ark" is so strong that a sequel is definitely going to be made, and the entire copyright is in his hands, and it has nothing to do with Yin Jun and Zou Wenhuai.

It is equivalent to Yin Jun and Zou Wenhuai investing huge sums of money to become land reclamation cattle, and Lucas just sits back and enjoys the benefits. You say such a great benefit, who would not want to get it?

If it weren't for Yin Jun and Zou Wenhuai's benefits from related derivatives, it would be impossible for Yin Jun to invest in the first place.

Zou Wenhuai didn't think as much as Yin Jun did. He only thought that this unintentional move would make him a big success, so the more successful the better.

Making money is secondary, and this qualification will be their stepping stone for Golden Harvest in Hollywood in the future.

"What? You asked me what investment I made? Do you know "Raiders of the Lost Ark"? This is where we participated in the main investment! When we decided to invest, Lucas only had one book! Our vision and ability, It's all good!"

Thinking that he would be able to speak these words confidently to Hollywood producers and directors in the future, Zou Wenhuai felt as comfortable as drinking a sweet spring.

Therefore, after hearing Lucas casually mention that there will be more screenings next week, Zou Wenhuai was overjoyed and hurried to ask Yin Jun for confirmation.

Yin Jun nodded, "Summer has been preparing for this matter for a long time. Although they didn't know gold and jade before, when doing business abroad, everything comes first, and we won't be so stupid as to send them to our door." Naturally, the more screens it shows, the better!"

"That's the reason!" Zou Wenhuai slapped his thigh, "Ah Jun, how much do you think it can increase?"

"Last week it was 1,733, and it is not a big problem to increase by more than 500." Yin Jun said, "But the meanings of the two are different. If a movie can expand its screening scale immediately in the second week, it means that the market is interested in this movie. The recognition of the movie. And these screens are basically the screens in the center of big cities that we have not reached before, and have a greater influence. Not to mention that these screens have more seats, which may reach half of the previous seats. "

"In this way, wouldn't the box office of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" explode?" Cai Yongchang said in surprise.

"certainly!"

Yin Jun nodded his head and said, "Otherwise, how do you think the super high box office of "Star Wars" and "Jaws" came about? It's not the same now as it will be in the future. The second week's box office usually doubles!"

"Looking at you like this, I thought you knew how Hollywood's box office would change in the future!" Zou Wenhuai joked with a smile.

Hearing Zou Wenhuai's ridicule, Yin Jun smiled wryly in his heart. It seems that he should think twice before speaking in the future, so that he will show his feet unconsciously, but it is very bad.

Zou Wenhuai was originally joking, but he happened to be telling the truth.

In the previous life, after "Jurassic Park", Hollywood movies were released, and they fell into a strange circle.

It cannot be called a strange circle, but a rule.

That is basically the box office in the first week, which determines the life and death of a movie.

If the box office is not good in the first week, then basically it will be a hit in the future.

Counter-attack movies like "Titanic" are rare.

Of course, the first week of release is usually the largest, and it is very common for two or three thousand movie theaters to show it together.

So in fact, if it is really a good film, it is generally not buried.

Even if there is, a movie with a poor box office in the first week but a strong word of mouth can still maintain a small decline in the second week, so as to make money from long-term screenings.

Basically, "Titanic" is actually this type.

It is different now in 1980. It was the same throughout the 1980s. The first week is just a test field. If the response is good, then the scale of release will be increased in the second week, so that the box office will be a big hit for two or three weeks until it is released.

Moreover, movies in the 1980s were released for more than one month. Good movies were released for one or two months, and even three months.

Otherwise, good films such as "Jaws", "Star Wars", "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and so on, would not have had a box office of four to five billion or more in the 1970s and 1980s!

You know, for more than two decades, there was no large-scale use of 3D and IMAX screens. Until the special effects blockbuster "Iron Man" came out and triggered a frenzy of special effects blockbusters, the box office could have four to five billion yuan, but it was not much!

After chatting about the box office, Zou Wenhuai and Cai Yongchang were in a great mood, and the smiles on their faces became even stronger.

The most important thing is that they like movies, but if movies can make a lot of money and increase their income, it will naturally form a virtuous circle and make a bigger career.

At this moment, Yin Jun smiled and said: "Speaking of which, the American "Raiders of the Lost Ark" is a success, and we are happy to cooperate. Now I also have a movie in my hand, I wonder if Golden Harvest would like to join in? "

"Um?"

Zou Wenhuai and Cai Yongchang were taken aback for a moment, they looked at each other, Cai Yongchang said: "Jun Shao, what you said is..."

"I also prepared a movie recently, which was written by me. I planned to invest all of it myself, and then find it in theaters around the world." Yin Jun said, "But things have changed a little now, so I thought, Do you want Jiahe to join the cooperation?"

"want!"

Zou Wenhuai is worthy of being the entrepreneur who created Golden Harvest Prosperity, and made a decisive decision, "Ah Jun's book, we have absolute confidence! Golden Harvest is willing to fight with Jun Shao again!"

As he said this, some of Yin Jun's explanations were useless.

Smiling, the young man also nodded, "Okay then, we will discuss the specific matters later. It is estimated that the preparations will start this month, and the filming will start next month. By then, there will still be a lot of things that need to be borrowed from Jiahe .”

"What's useful, Ah Jun, just open your mouth!" Zou Wenhuai said boldly.

Cai Yongchang said beside him, "Young Master Jun, what is your film about? Who are you going to ask for the filming? Are you yourself?"

"It's specifically about what happened in a police school. It's a comedy." Yin Jundao, "I still have something to do. I'm going to the mainland, so I can't make this movie. Besides, I can't do anything about it. It has reached the level where I can direct movies, so I found a director who is particularly good at comedy, and when the time comes to talk about cooperation, you will know."

"good!"

Zou Wenhuai smiled and nodded, "I believe in you, Ah Jun, you will definitely not let us down!"

This person is also straightforward.

Not only did he agree with everything, but when he left, he didn't even ask how much money he needed or how to distribute the benefits. His tolerance and heart were really different from ordinary people.

Only this kind of person would beat his old master to pieces, and finally had to close the door!
