Entertainment Empire System

Ye Ming was counting on Rob Cohen to continue working for him.

After all, in a movie like The Fast and the Furious, he has wasted a lot of energy in starring in it, and almost all of his energy has been consumed.

Paying attention to this movie, then at this time, Ye Ming himself did not have more energy to take on the director's part, so he had Rob Cohen's guy appear.

He didn't want to make just one movie for this movie, but wanted to make a series of movies.

Therefore, the early role is very important. At this time, you cannot give this guy all the money, otherwise you will be offended. If Rob Cohen has a grudge, it will have a negative impact on future cooperation. This is also very clear.

Therefore, Ye Ming thought about this matter and explained: "Although in China, we want to have the final editing rights, it is also because of the convenience of editing. Our special effects production is completed, and after synthesis , various trailers will be released, so it is more cost-effective to do it in China.

And the cost of Hollywood is so high. How much does it cost to have an emergency in Hollywood? How much does it cost to have a good editor edit a movie?

I think you should be very clear. "

Rob Cohen didn't say anything at this time? He really had nothing to say. The most criticized thing about Hollywood is the cost, especially the cost of top editors.

That's even higher, making people feel desperate.

At least most people will feel very desperate after seeing this price, but as a great movie, it has the potential to become a Hollywood classic movie.

There was no good editor to cut it.

This is an almost impossible task. At this time, I wonder if it is a time to save money. Ye Ming also knows very well that a good editor is needed to complete this film.

But being an editor in Hollywood is indeed very high. Not to mention the director who has this kind of scenic spot, there are basically few people in Hollywood who have this kind of rights, so this guy like Pierberg was already very happy when he got the middle circle.

Rob Cohen thought for a while and said: "If China can successfully edit this movie, then I think it will be no problem, ok.

I am very happy to be able to win money these days.

Hopefully the movie will reach the box office expectations we expect. "

Ye Ming said with a smile: "Don't worry about this. I am very confident about this movie, and you shot it yourself. How much effort did we waste on this movie?" ?

We worked so hard to make a good movie, and you have also seen the special effects. The effect must be perfect, very in line with the Western point of view. If such a movie is not good enough at the box office, then I think the Western film market There should be some problems, and I will use 20 million US dollars for follow-up promotion work. This word is a plan for the first phase. If the reflection is better, we will launch the second phase and continue to invest money later. It’s not impossible, everything depends on the effect of promotion.

Anyway, everything we do is to serve the movie. This matter was also planned long ago.

After all, after a movie is shot, it needs better publicity to let more people know about the movie and attract audiences to go to the cinema to watch the movie. Therefore, his later promotion work is very important.

Even before she was born, she had already planned it before filming the movie. At least 20 million would be invested in promoting the movie.

We obviously know that this is a classic movie, and it may be said that it is far from great, but that is because it lacks some time to remember and has nothing to do with the movie itself. Therefore, if a movie like this fails at the box office because of poor promotion, If so, would it be very regrettable? Therefore, the 20 million yuan given to you at this time has been used as promotion expenses. This is natural. A good movie deserves so much promotion.

At this time, Pierberg was even more speechless.

Because Rob Cohen felt that if the movie was edited there, one employee might want to give up on the movie, but now it seems impossible. If the boss wants to give up on the movie, then he will not invest at all. More money to promote and publicize.

Twenty million, not every boss can do such a big deal, so now I see that my boss is so generous, with twenty million as promotion expenses, Brother Bo is very happy to say, With this kind of promotion expense, I think our movie will have an explosive box office development. Hollywood knows money. No one can deny this, right?

As long as you have money, it is very easy to do publicity. And boss, you have Huihui.com, which also has huge influence in Hollywood. Ye Ming said with a smile: "There are also media owned by Mr. Murdoch's News Corporation. Otherwise, why do you think I agreed to the investment of this guy James at the last moment? He has such good resources, we can't Don’t take advantage of it.”

James, of course, is the second-in-command at News Corporation and the future successor.

If such a person participates in investment, he must be properly taken care of in publicity. After all, it is his own work. If the movie sells well, James will also make money!

Only then did Rob Cohen say: "Director, I heard that our movie seems to be boycotted in Hollywood. Some people have objections to our movie and don't want our movie to have a good box office. It is said that it will United to boycott us, and it is said that they are not one family.

But for us, I'm afraid we won't be able to break through the siege, or whether we can make a good turnaround when the James family comes to help us, or how high the box office of our movie will be, it's hard to guarantee. ah.

You need to know this in advance and be prepared. "

I have to say that the director I worked with was very qualified. After hearing the news, he took the initiative to tell Ye Ming.

Ye Ming didn't know much about things in Hollywood recently, but when he heard that someone in Hollywood actually wanted to sanction him, it seemed that such a thing was possible!

Ye Ming pondered for a moment, then nodded and said: "Someone wants to deal with me. I don't know how long it is in Hollywood. Someone actually wants to deal with me, but this kind of thing is inevitable. After all, Brilliant Film and Television is in Hollywood." It's relatively sharp.

Also, Huihuang Film and Television seems to be relatively independent. It is too domineering and must have blocked some people's financial opportunities.

Therefore, it is normal for someone to want to deal with us in this matter.

As for how to deal with this matter, it’s really hard to say. I know those people in Hollywood very well.

Ye Ming thought for a while and then said: "Our company has indeed made money for some people, especially on video websites. It seems normal for them to deal with us."

At this moment, Ye Ming's cell phone rang. He glanced at the phone and saw James's phone number. He was surprised at this time. James rarely contacted him. If there was nothing special, this sentence , I would rather enjoy life, and I would definitely not call myself. Ye Ming answered the phone and said very cheerfully: "James, why do you have time to call me?

Aren't you busy with News Corporation's affairs every day?

If you have time to call me, why not take a look at the financial statements? This is what you said. "

This is the kind of bad friend who can tease each other.

James said very rudely: "Of course, if there is nothing special, what should I call you? You are not a beauty, but I really have something to talk to you about this time, and you need to be vigilant. "

Ye Ming continued without thinking: "Someone wants to deal with me regarding the Fast and Furious movie and create some trouble for me."

James was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Okay, you have learned to answer questions quickly. Congratulations. You are right. That's it. The news I heard is that some people see you being so popular and making so much money, and You are a solitary person. With so many patents, do you still want others to give up?

You have to find a video website, but many people won’t give up. Making videos is so profitable. At least from your website, it can be seen that the future of making videos is very promising, forcing people to live there.

It is impossible to bypass your company, and all of them require technical support from your company. In this case, it is equivalent to your company being stuck in someone else's neck to make a video.

Do you think that what you are willing to watch happen is our News Group, which relies on your technical support? Are we unable to tolerate this kind of thing at all?

My old man has said this many times. He is complaining that you are not kind. He has enough respect for your intelligence, but you don't even charge us. What can you do if you leave me a message code? If you can give us the source code, we are willing to pay a high price.

I want to guarantee that you will be satisfied. Our News Corporation has never been stingy on this point, and the price we offer has always satisfied the author.

How about it? If possible, please come to us and let us cooperate. "

Ye Ming said with a smile: "Don't think about it! I have already said about this kind of thing for five years. Our company must keep the park in the park for at least five years before thinking about whether it can be authorized to other people." company.

As for cooperation, of course we can further cooperate. If you need it, we can give you part of the source code so that you have more autonomy.

With this said, forget about anything else. Patents are for protection, and you will be responsible for the consequences if you use them without permission.

In fact, it’s not that I underestimate your company, and even if you find a way to crack it, I will still have a way to hack it. Do you believe it? "

Regarding Ye Ming's hacking skills, James still believed very much, because in James' villa, a man had hacked other computers more than once.

The computers of those Hollywood stars have been hacked by someone more than once, and they have obtained many restricted items, including some pictures from movies and TV shows. Anyway, these are the privacy of some Hollywood stars.

Therefore, it seems to James that Ye Ming must have reached the top level.

After all, James is not a layman, and his attainments in computers are also quite high.

If this guy really doesn't think he's very powerful, this hacker's level can be seen to be top-notch.

Of course, another point is that James believes that if he is not a top hacker, he will not be able to obtain so many video patents.

At this time, James said helplessly: "You guys have been updated for five years, let alone five years. How fast the video website is updated in three years! After three years, you will have updated to two or three generations, right?"

In the past five years, I guess the fourth and fifth generations of you have gone out. You are sending your first-generation version to others. It is not the same as imposing technology on others and letting others have their necks stuck in your hands.

People in Hollywood don't want this kind of thing to happen, so there are people who want to deal with you, and their power is not small.

Ye Ming said nonchalantly: "What's this? My Huihuang Film and Television Huihuang.com is not a vegetarian.

Isn’t it true that your News Corporation is still on my side? I think you won't help me find me when the time comes. I invested in this movie. If you don't help me, everyone will lose money together.

You begged me to give you some shares back then. If you dare not help me now, I will definitely not be able to spare you by then. "

James refused to agree now, and said excitedly: "Ye Ming, can you teach you about this? Was it me who begged you to invest in the first place?

You asked me to invest, okay? For the sake of being a friend, I think you can’t help but support this investment in making movies. What about you? You're actually saying now that I'm begging you to tell me that your movie will definitely make money? "

Ye Ming was stunned for a moment and said: "James, can you be more reliable?

The filming of the movie has been completed, and some rough cuts have been produced, and a special effect has been added. Are not all of these shots given to you for you to take a look at? After you see those shots, you can tell me the box office of this movie. How about, don't tell me you didn't watch those scenes? "

James said thoughtfully: "You gave me some lenses and asked me to see if this is the case?"

Ye Ming said very definitely: "Of course, no matter what, you are one of the investors. It is necessary to show you for sure.

Don't tell me that your assistant didn't receive these things, or that you don't even look at them now, otherwise, I don't think you will call me so easily.

You usually don't understand that when you send some samples, he doesn't even look at you, but you are one of the investors.

Don’t you have so little confidence in me? You think my movie will be a hit without even taking a look at it. "
