(I'll ask for all kinds of votes in the new book. Please give me some strength!!!)

No matter how much he scolded, Ike was still attracted by this prompt, "spiritual communication"? What is this? Why did it have a great effect on this negotiation? Ike thought about it, but only deducted a little soul value. So he decided to give it a try.

After clicking on yes, Ike still felt tired and said in his heart that the soul value seemed to have really affected his body. He thought about it and went to bed.

The next day, Ike arrived at the company early in the morning. Today he was going to take Jeremy to talk to Mr. Bobby Regerman about the release and screening of "The Rose Boy Dream".

Bobby Regeman is the general manager of a "Country Cinema". In the United States, in addition to some of the groups such as Lianyi, General, and Amc Grand Theater, there are many small theaters that Ike wants to go to this time. They often show some relatively alternative small art films to survive in the "big fish".

Generally speaking, North American theater screening distributors and screenwriters have two ways of sharing. One is that the publisher delivers a certain rent from the screener (depending on the film sales situation, it is generally around 10,000 US dollars). After the release, the screener will receive a commission every week (10% in the first week, the higher the next, but not higher than 40%). The second is that the publisher does not pay the rent, and the screener will directly receive a commission, which is generally 30%, the higher the next, but not higher than 50%. Generally speaking, the box office earned by theater screening accounts for 40% of the total box office that a movie can create. Also, if a film has a box office less than $3,000 after two weeks of screening, the theater has the right to directly remove it.

When Ike went there, he set a standard, that is, it cannot exceed 45% of the box office. However, it depends on the negotiation situation. This is the first time that his company has released a movie. It is not impossible to make a little concession, but it cannot be too much, because this movie itself is not a blockbuster and has a small profit margin. If it can sell a box office of 300,000 US dollars, it will only earn more than 1 million yuan if it is full.

Another problem is that the screening time is a lot of considerations. Usually, the publisher will leave time for the film to be promoted at least two months. However, for the movie in Ike's hands, it is useless to promote it too long. It is a niche film, and more importantly, it is a foreign language film. Therefore, in terms of publicity, Ike will not invest a lot. On the contrary, it needs to reduce funds. Advertising for TV media is naturally unnecessary. The cost is not expensive. Posters and websites are necessary, and this cost is very small. The 3D film company does not have an official website yet, but it is being planned. However, it can make a special web page, forum, etc. for this film. Ike is planning to make the promotional fee within 200,000 US dollars.

..............The wonderful thing continues.........

"Rural Cinema" is like its name, located in the rural areas around Los Angeles, but don't underestimate these American "rural" cinemas. The location of the American theater is different from that of domestic theaters. Generally, it is located far from the city. In addition to supporting commercial formats, the huge parking lot is also one of the essential elements of American theaters. The modern multi-hall theaters in the United States are spread across many small towns between cities, and theaters are combined with shopping malls to become the "ultimate entertainment facility". A family can satisfy the whole day of leisure and entertainment by driving to the theater.

In this "country on wheels", distance has been conquered by wheels. The theaters located in the "ultimate entertainment facilities" are connected into a radiation network, and the roads are well connected, so there is no need to worry about not attracting people. Therefore, the box office of theaters in the vast majority of non-urban areas of the United States is an unanimous number.

Bobby Regerman runs two cinemas in rural Los Angeles. Although they are not big, they have all the equipment. Cinemas are the end of the entire film industry, but they are an important link that major film companies and publishers cannot ignore. There are only 365 days a year, and Hollywood's film production is vast. How to arrange schedules, show a few screens, how to attract audiences to theaters, etc. are all very technical issues.

Ike and Jeremy met in Bobby's office. The two sides shook hands very friendly at first. In Ike's opinion, Mr. Bobby, who was in his 40s, was occupied by too much "cholesterol". He was extremely fat and had a thick neck and could hardly see any chin. He was shaved with a small flat head. When he smiled, his eyes narrowed into a slit.

Bobby Regemain asked the secretary to pour coffee while he greeted Ike and Jeremy to sit down.

"I really didn't expect that Mr. Ike was so young." Bobby said with his eyes narrowed.

"Haha, I only graduated from college last summer." Ike responded politely.

Suddenly I remembered such words in the air. The voice was exactly the same as Bobby's, as if it was coming from his heart, but Ike heard it clearly.

He shook his head quickly and said to Bobby, "Sorry, Mr. Bobby, what did you say just now?"

"Oh. Nothing," Bobby continued to smile, "I said you're young."

"What's behind?"

"No." Bobby replied in confusion. "Is there any problem?"

Ike touched his forehead and squeezed out a little smile, "Nothing, maybe I heard it wrong."

, the voice came from Bobby's heart to Ike's ears again.

Ike's heart beat violently. He looked at Bobby in front of him. He was still smiling. He turned his head to look at Jeremy, but nothing unusual was.

My God, isn't this the scene of the movie "Eavesdropping on the Heart of a Woman"? It's just that what I hear is Bobby's heart.

Speechless.........

abnormal...........

magic...........

Ike cannot describe his current mood in words. Is this what the modifier calls "spiritual communication"? It's so powerful!!!

At this time, the female secretary twisted her slender waist and walked in with coffee. She was blonde and blue-eyed, wearing a professional gray dress with a little low neckline. Even in February, she couldn't stop her sexy figure. When she lowered her head to put the coffee, she could even see the two seductive round pieces.

She put the coffee and then smiled charmingly at the three of them, "Everyone, please use it slowly." After saying that, she twisted her stilted arms and left.

"Hmm!" Ike coughed gently, wiped his face, then picked up the coffee and took a sip, or said why the bosses in this world had to arrange a beautiful female secretary. It turned out that their main job was to be in bed. I just heard that before, but now it seems that it is true.

"Mr. Bobby, I want to talk about this film. It is a French film. Our company believes that it is both artistic and commercial." Ike put away his thoughts and began to tell Bobby about the film.

"Okay." Bobby said with a smile, "I want to hear your specific plans."

Ike cursed secretly in his heart.

"We want to show it in your company's theater for two weeks, rent the screen, or directly draw Chengdu, watch it..." Ike explained his meaning.

Bobby picked up the coffee and took a sip, without directly answering Ike's words. However, Ike could hear clearly what he said in his heart.

"Or else, well... it's OK for a week." Ike thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid I can't talk about it if there are fewer."

"Haha." Bobby's eyes narrowed into a slit again, "I know, usually movies are screened for two weeks, but you also see that our theater is not very prosperous now. Of course, we all hope that this movie can be sold well... There is absolutely no problem in the first week. If the effect is good, we will continue to screen."

"That screen..." Ike continued.

"I still want to hear Mr. Li's opinion."
