Chapter 121 Laughing? I'm Still Afraid of These?

How could Zhuke not be jealous of the Titanic, which has a box office of 1.8 billion US dollars worldwide?

Now that the opportunity is right in front of you, Zhu Ke will never give up!

You said that after the Big Ship was released, will Zucker offend the two giants Fox and Paramount? Because Zucker stole the huge benefits they won?

That's right!

Because of this huge benefit, Zhuke must offend them!

But Zucker wasn't very worried.

You should know that Paramount has many cooperations with Zhuke's Wald Pictures. Five movies were signed with overseas distribution contracts. As long as Paramount wants this part to make a profit, it will not make things difficult for Wald Pictures.

The most important thing is that as long as Paramount still has the idea of ​​annexing Wald Pictures, it will not get into Juke in the short term.

In this way, there is only one Fox left.

"20th Century Fox has a large number of Marvel superhero copyrights, and I have them in my hands. There will definitely be many conflicts in the future, and I will offend sooner or later. Besides, who doesn't have many enemies in Hollywood yet!"

"You are a big company, and I'm not afraid now!"

Zhu Ke swore and was confident.

The next day.

Wald Pictures and representatives of Paramount and Fox negotiated on the investment share of Titanic.

The first one to interview was Paramount.

After all, the two sides are considered "alliance" in Hollywood. Of course, Paramount, one of the top six Hollywoods, is on a strong side.

"Victor, we Paramount account for 38% of the investment share in the big ship project and also enjoy some of the rights and interests in the surrounding markets such as box office dividends, DVDs, etc. At present, we can sell part of the share to you, but you must pay more than the market price to buy this part of the share." Dave Lehman said seriously.

Dave Lehman, an executive of Paramount Pictures' production department, is also a veteran in the Hollywood industry.

He is in full responsibility for this negotiation.

"Sir, what you said is wrong." Victor said sly.

Higher than the market price?

Think too much!

As we all know, the current representatives of the Titanic rating is B, and the probability of a loss is a loss. Therefore, generally speaking, the investment share of this part is equal to the market price or lower than the market price.

But now, they are selling them to Wald Pictures at a price higher than the market price.

Paramount's behavior of slaughtering fat sheep is simply unconcealed!

Will Victor give in?

Haha! Even if you make concessions, you will definitely not be able to compromise on the first day of negotiation, otherwise you will not have to negotiate next, just be slaughtered directly.

13%!

That's right, this is the investment share that Paramount is willing to sell on the first day of negotiations.

However, this share could not satisfy Zhuke's appetite at all.

Just negotiate, just continue to talk.

......

20th Century Fox.

"impossible!"

"Your asking price is so high, it's totally unreasonable!"

"Even if we are suckers and fat sheep, we are not as good as you Fox."

"You offered 20% of the total investment share, and you actually offered a price of US$70 million, which is 20 million US dollars higher than the investment issuance cost. For example, the market price of today's ship is 30 million US dollars higher."

"Even if you want to slaughter people, it's too cruel."

Victor was a little angry.

20th Century Fox was completely speaking out at the Lion, and their offer was much darker than Paramount!

Although Paramount's offer is high, it has many cooperative relationships with Wald Pictures, so both parties are still restrained and the price code is within the acceptance range. However, Fox is no longer authentic and really wants to kill the rhythm.

"Is it expensive? Then you don't buy it! Hey hey hey don't get angry, Victor. Let's continue to talk, it really doesn't work. You can ask your boss Mr. Wald again, what do you think?" Fox's negotiator smiled.

"You...you are so interesting." Victor laughed in anger.

......

The negotiations lasted for two days, and Wald Pictures, Fox and Paramount launched more than 6 negotiations.

At present, the opinions of the three parties are very clear!

The two companies are willing to sell part of their investment shares, and Wald Pictures is willing to take over. However, there are major differences between the three parties on the price of this investment share.

Of course, this is not the main thing!

The most important thing is the final revenue ratio of the film.

Logically speaking, for a movie, investors enjoy the right to pay for box office dividends, DVDs, video tape markets, TV platform playback fees, video copyrights, peripheral fees, etc. Even if they cannot all enjoy these rights, there are still many.

However, the two of them are too dark!

Paramount representative: "No, no, no! You Wald Pictures can only enjoy the box office dividends of the film on the Titanic project."

Fox representative: "Can you Wald Pictures be qualified to enjoy the copyright and profits in the surrounding markets?!"

Damn it!

It's so fucking bullying!

Even if you are the top six Hollywood companies and are famous all over the world, investors can only enjoy the right to pay dividends at the box office, which is simply an idiot!

"I'm so anxious, don't blame me for quitting the matter. Whoever wants to buy will buy it? We, Wald Pictures, will not participate. Bye everyone." Victor made a harsh statement directly.

In Hollywood, the profits of a movie outside the box office are often 1 to 1.5 times the box office profit, involving huge benefits.

Even laymen understand this truth!

Capitals such as India, South Korea, and the Japanese devils can also enjoy some of the rights and interests other than box office dividends when investing in Hollywood movies!

And they are all outsiders!

"Without me, an insider in the Hollywood circle, isn't as good as an outsider? Do they treat me as a fool?"

After Victor informed Zhuke of the situation, Zhuke was really angry.

"Boss, it's negotiation. In the end, Fox and Paramount will definitely compromise. After all, the market for "Titanic" is there. The reason why they are arrogant now is just to take into account the face of the six major players." Victor smiled.

Zucker nodded.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Zhuke's mind.

“Huh?”

Zhuke immediately said: "Victor, you said that if we spread the investment share of the big ship to the major media, will the media mock me and mock Wald Pictures?"

"Well?"

After the words came to an end, Victor was stunned.

Anyone who takes the initiative to find ridicule?

"Victor, think about it! The current market of the big ship is not optimistic about the media, the theater company does not pay attention to it, the film critics do not like it, the audience does not expect it, and even the producer itself wants to die. In short, the production cost plus the promotion cost, a total of $300 million in the big ship is a laughing stock in Hollywood."

"if!"

"I said that if, once the media learns that we want to buy the investment share of the big ship, they are the ones who are optimistic about the future of the big ship, they will definitely not let go of this hot topic and mock me with all the extremely unpleasant words."

"After all, they will never miss the opportunity to mock a billionaire!"

Zhuke said one sentence after another, and Victor instantly understood.

"Boss, you want to create a situation where we may give up the big ship under the pressure of the media. So that Fox and Paramount will be afraid of the enemy and give up some of their interests to quickly promote negotiations, right?" Victor suddenly realized.

Zhuke immediately smiled.

Media mocking?

Anyone who likes to mock him, just mock him. I’m thick-skinned and I’m still afraid of these things?!
