Chapter 169 Jiaxing's Other Leg
"Mr. Lorenzo, Huayi is in the Huaxia Film Festival. It is quite powerful and can be regarded as the leader. If you don't believe it, you can check it out."
Wang Lei has a confident smile on his face, and he still has confidence, "And we are very experienced in co-productions. On the other hand, Jiaxing is actually just a start-up company. Why don't you consider cooperating with us."
After being at the entrance of the restaurant, there was a struggle with Xu Jia.
The two sides are already tearing their skins apart, and Wang Lei will naturally not let go of the opportunity to poach someone's corner.
Didn't Xu Jia always like to poach someone?
Let him taste the same feeling today!
"Yes, cooperating with you will cost you nothing. "Taiping Wheel" hasn't given you a long memory." Xu Jia insisted on interjecting, with a disdainful tone.
Wang Lei stared, but seeing that it was Xu Jia, he swallowed it back.
have to say.
Judging from the current box office results alone, Hua Yi is indeed a bit underwhelmed.
"Mr. Lorenzo, if you don't mind, let's have a chat alone?"
As Xu Jia spoke, he glanced sideways at Wang Lei and the others.
It's obvious who this is targeting.
"I also wanted to have an in-depth exchange with you." Lorenzo nodded.
Seeing the two talking happily.
Wang Lei groaned angrily, turned around and led the people away.
Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to stay?
Seeing that there were no more irrelevant people, Xu Jiacai smiled and said, "I don't know what Warner thinks about my previous proposal?"
Miao Yuqing followed, acting as a timely interpreter.
"In principle, our group supports this contract for the time being, but the details still need to be discussed." Lorenzo considered his words carefully.
This is enough for Xu Jia.
He never expected that the co-production film contract could be finalized in a short time.
This is no small test for both parties.
After all, not only is it the first time to cooperate, the film market systems that the two parties are dealing with are different, so naturally they need to adjust.
in addition.
It's not just this project that Xu Jia values.
"Let's leave these to the people below to discuss."
Xu Jia waved his hand, and changed the topic: "I heard that Mr. Luo still has his own film and television company, and the producer of "Transformers 4" also has a friend."
"Yes, I don't know what to ask for advice?"
This sentence was obviously translated by Miao Yuqing herself.
Otherwise, with the level of that foreigner, how could he speak so politely.
"Ahem, let me introduce again, my company is not only involved in the field of film and television production, but also the distribution work in the Chinese market."
Xu Jia stared intently at Lorenzo's eyes with burning eyes, "I'm very interested in Warner's film distribution, as well as the distribution rights of other overseas films in China."
With Jiaxing's physique, the release of this piece of cake must be eaten in the stomach.
very simple.
Relying solely on film and television production will not always be profitable.
Xu Jia's foresight is limited, and a mature group must grow in many ways.
Publishing is the next area Xu Jia values to develop.
It's just that compared to local films, Xu Jia first set his sights on the huge overseas market. Whoever makes local forces like Huayi stubborn and deeply entrenched, Xu Jia would rather take a shortcut than confront them head-on.
I won't play with you anymore!
The chessboard is lifted, and we start over with new rules.
"Film release?"
Lorenzo originally thought that Xu Jia, like other Chinese film bosses, wanted to enter the international market.
He was still thinking about whether to persuade him or not.
Now it seems that he is much smarter than he imagined.
It is more hopeful to use others to make money on your own territory than to make money on other people's territory.
Don't think that there is no so-called geographical protection overseas.
Not only is there, but it is quite powerful.
Don't say that it is not a country, not a field, it is easy to be cheated and your pants are gone.
"Yes, I'm very interested in Warner's next DC Comics adaptation. Can you help me ask your senior management if you are willing to sell the distribution rights in the Chinese market? If investment is needed, we can also discuss it."
Xu Jia didn't even think about distribution rights in markets other than China, which was Warner's private land.
However, relying on Wanda Pictures, it is not unqualified to negotiate.
It's just that next year, Wanda Pictures will shrink back to China, and it won't be able to afford it by then.
What Xu Jia really hopes is to take advantage of this opportunity to let his distribution department develop overseas distribution systems as much as possible.
This is the foundation of the company's outward development.
Content is the lifeblood of being rooted in the local area, and the overseas distribution system is the key to growing into a giant.
Simple point.
It is difficult to support an entertainment giant by relying on the Chinese film market alone.
Looking at Hollywood, or the Hong Kong film industry in the past.
There is one notable feature.
That is their film, which sells well both at home and abroad.
The reason why Hollywood blockbusters dare to invest more than 100 million yuan at every turn is because there is a mature system supporting them.
In addition to the North American domestic market, there are also vast overseas markets, as well as offline discs. Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers of Xiangjiang also achieved their brilliance by absorbing the nutrients from the entire Southeast Asia, Hong Kong and Taiwan markets.
What Xu Jia has to do is to open up a path that belongs exclusively to Chinese movies.
After all, today is different from the past.
All countries have paid attention to the protection of local films, and it is not as easy to enter as before.
But as long as there is an opportunity, Xu Jia will not let it go.
Just because Huaxia Film wants to rise, Jiaxing wants to establish the right to speak.
This step must be taken.
"Which movie distribution rights are you interested in? I can ask you first when I go back, but I can't guarantee whether it will be successful." Lorenzo said.
"I am optimistic about "Suicide Squad", "Wonder Woman", etc., and the book "Aquaman". If possible, we hope to occupy a certain proportion of investment."
The corner of Xu Jia's mouth turned upward, "I won't let you help in vain, and Jiaxing is also very happy to cooperate with your company."
This was a blatant bribe. Even if he told Lorenzo that he helped him, he would not treat him badly.
From the perspective of others, this may be a risky move.
But when it fell into Lorenzo's ears, he couldn't help showing an appreciative smile.
"Xu, has anyone said that you can read people's hearts, and women should fall in love with you one after another."
Lorenzo said with emotion, and laughed loudly: "I am very happy to help the group establish a good cooperation channel in China. I think this is a win-win situation for both of us."
"No, it's the three of us."
Xu Jia secretly praised this guy for being better than a monkey, and then showed a knowing smile.
"Hahaha, if I were a woman, I would definitely fall in love with you, unfortunately... But I have a distant niece, do you want it?" Lorenzo just said.
Xu Jia looked at the other person's beard and bald forehead, and quickly waved his hands: "You are repaying your kindness with revenge."
