Rebirth of the Entertainment Master
Page 1266
When Xiao Yunhai heard it, he was immediately amused, and said: "Mr. Steer is really hypocritical. He can say such things. It's okay to be thick-skinned. The relationship between the two of us is clear to the whole world. He said that this kind of When talking sarcasticly, everyone is probably laughing in their hearts."
"So you're saying you don't welcome Paramount's new technology very much?"
"Of course. Paramount is Mr. Steel's company, and I'm very uncomfortable with anything it achieves. Likewise, I'm afraid he's the last thing he wants to see if I achieve anything. It's just that the only difference between us is that I I don’t like pretending to be snakes and duplicity, but Mr. David Steer likes to say some disgusting things.”
When the reporters heard Xiao Yunhai's answer, they couldn't help laughing.
They knew that as long as it was Xiao Yunhai's press conference, there would definitely be explosive news, and this time was no exception.
If it was another person, it would definitely be to congratulate David Steer, and then say some fake words. Only Xiao Yunhai could express his true inner thoughts so unabashedly.
And this is precisely the topic that attracts the readers' attention the most.
A reporter asked: "Mr. Xiao, as a filmmaker, is it inappropriate for you to say these words?"
Xiao Yunhai looked at the ID on his chest and said, "So you are a reporter from IMD TV, no wonder you ask such stupid questions. That's right, I'm a filmmaker, but I'm not a saint. Paramount's new special effects The birth of technology has caused me to lose billions or even tens of billions of dollars in profits every year. If I can still look at this matter calmly like an outsider, it will be difficult for me.”
"Just like my "Warcraft" game, which makes your boss lose [-] million a day, you can ask him if he will be happy and happy. If he says yes, then I tell you, your boss will either He's a saint, he's either crazy, or he's just nonsense. Which one do you think he is? I think the third one is more likely."
"Pfft."
"Hahaha."
When the reporters heard Xiao Yunhai's funny answer, they couldn't help laughing. Even the IMD TV reporter who asked him the question couldn't hold back, his cheeks bulged a few times, and he forcibly held back.
He knew very well that if he dared to laugh, his job would be over.
Seeing his appearance, Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "It's okay, if you want to laugh, you can laugh. The salary of reporters at our Yunqing TV station is much higher than that of your IMD TV station. If they fire you, Don't worry, our Yunqing TV station will definitely take you in."
When the reporter heard this, he couldn't help laughing anymore.
The scene laughed again.
This press conference was carefully planned last night, and the whole process was broadcast live by Yunqing TV.
David Steer had been following his live broadcast, his face turned blue with anger.
In any case, he is also the boss of Stell Internet Company, worth hundreds of billions of dollars, and stomping his feet in the United States can shake the world economy.
Those opponents I met before, no matter how fiercely they fought each other, they still maintained a polite and gentlemanly demeanor in the outside world.But the world's richest man in front of him is simply a rogue, he doesn't know how to speak taboo, and he doesn't have the demeanor of a successful person at all, which makes him almost pissed off.
Franklin was almost dying of laughter, but his face was very serious, and he said, "Boss, Kung Fu Xiao is just trying to use his tongue, we don't need to pay attention to him."
David Steer looked coldly at Xiao Yunhai on the TV, and countless adjectives popped out between his teeth: "Bastard, hooligan, villain, bastard..."
The audience in front of the TV couldn't help laughing, and the ratings rose steadily.
Xiao Yunhai's press conference continued, and the reporters raised their hands and asked questions one after another.
"Mr. Xiao, do you have any countermeasures against Paramount's new special effects technology?"
Xiao Yunhai said: "Mr. David Steer is right. It is normal for new technology to replace old technology. This marks the progress of the film industry. Faced with this situation, I have nothing to do. Since the If I can’t compete technically, then I have no choice but to fight a price war with Paramount. I announce that starting today, the special effects technology patent fee of our dream special effects company will be reduced from 3000 million U.S. dollars per year to [-] million U.S. dollars. The contribution made by the world's film and television industry. I believe that Mr. David Steer will be very happy when he hears this news."
"Hahaha."
Xiao Yunhai dropped the price by 70.00% all of a sudden, hitting the heart of Paramount's new special effects technology.
Chapter 1241 Price War
For Xiao Yunhai, the fantasy special effects technology has already earned him enough profits, not to mention 3000 million US dollars, even if he doesn't earn a penny in the future, he will not lose money.
In contrast, Steer Networks is different.The special effects technology they spent so much manpower, material and financial resources has not yet brought them a penny.If there is a price war now, Steer will undoubtedly suffer a lot.
David Sterle threw the cup on the ground angrily, his face was livid, and he cursed: "Kung Fu Xiao, you are a bastard."
Franklin next to him was not much better, his face was extremely ugly, Xiao Yunhai's actions were simply typical of harming others and benefiting himself.
"Mr. Xiao, don't you feel that you have lost a lot by doing this?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "If I don't lower the price, won't the loss be heavy? I know the importance of movie special effects technology very well. If I don't do anything, my fantasy special effects will really be ruined. The reason is very simple. No entertainment company will buy patented technology with a 30.00% lower efficiency at the same price, but now my price has been reduced by as much as 70.00%, I believe it will attract most film companies to continue to cooperate with me. Because our special effects technology is made The effect is not worse than that of the other party, the only difference is that the efficiency is only 30.00% lower, and I believe that everyone will be able to calculate this account clearly when exchanging 7000 million US dollars for this 30.00% speed."
Indeed, the film has the same effect, and it can save 7000 million a year just by releasing it later, which is perfectly acceptable for any film company.
Next, the reporters kept asking questions about Paramount's new special effects technology, and it took 10 minutes before they moved on to his movie "The Grandmaster".
"Mr. Xiao, major media magazines and well-known Internet forums have recently been talking about your new work "The Grandmaster", saying that it is not suitable for screening in Europe and the United States. What do you think about this matter?"
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said: "It's just some tricks played by clowns, I don't care at all. Hehe, what's interesting is that I just invited a few hundred viewers who participated in "Star Talk" last time, and 90.00 % all scored more than 7.5 points, I really don't understand, why there are more than [-] people posting. You must know that I haven't even released the trailer yet, they seem to have seen my film It's like a movie, and I scolded me to the brim. To them, I just want to say that even if you take other people's money, I also hope that you can be more professional. At least wait until I release the trailer before scolding, yes wrong?"
"Hahaha."
The reporters laughed again.
The audience in front of the TV thought about it, and it was indeed the same truth. They didn’t even release the trailer, and you scolded it there. This is pure nonsense.
"Then why didn't you come forward to clarify? Instead, you let the netizens on the Internet spread the word."
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "Good information is publicity, and bad information is also a disguised form of propaganda. I said before that whether or not this "The Grandmaster" should be released in Europe and America is not up to me, but Those hundreds of movie fans have the final say. Now they have given me a clear answer, so no matter how bad they say, I will release "The Grandmaster" in theaters, so that European and American movie fans can see it. A kung fu movie full of artistic features."
"Mr. Xiao, when are you going to release this movie?"
Xiao Yunhai thought for a while, and said: "I haven't decided on the specific time, but it must be before the World Cup. I'm a football fan, so I don't want work to delay my going to London to watch the match."
"Mr. Xiao, how much US dollars do you think the global box office of "The Grandmaster" can reach? Can it break through the box office miracle created by "2012"?"
When Xiao Yunhai heard it, he laughed loudly and said, "Mr. David Steer's words are right. I did rely on 3D movies to defeat Paramount. As for "2012", it is an unrepeatable The miracle of this movie is also due to the light of 3D special effects technology. Now that the ticket price of 3D movies is 35 US dollars, it is impossible to break through 200 billion, and even 100 billion is not an easy task."
"Mr. Xiao, it seems that you have little confidence in the box office of "The Grandmaster"?"
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "It's not lacking, but self-knowledge. This "The Grandmaster" is not a purely commercial film. There are not many commercial elements in it, but it is absolutely wonderful. The fierce kung fu duel is still the highlight in it. Dozens of Chinese Kung Fu are involved, and every move and every style is real. Unlike the previous "Jing Wu Heroes", this movie is a combination of the power and beauty of Kung Fu, and it is very beautiful. If I estimate In terms of box office, I think it’s at least $80 billion or more.”
80 billion US dollars is naturally much lower than Xiao Yunhai's "2012", but this is the general trend of the film industry recently.
Since the four 3D superhero movies of Marvel Comics have successively broken through the 2 billion mark, except for MGM's "Interstellar 80" which has won a box office of [-] billion, the highest of other movies is only Just over [-] billion.
As Xiao Yunhai expected before, the 3D movie dropped to a normal level after a short burst of popularity.In the past, movie fans were curious about 3D movies, so they rushed into the theater regardless of the high box office. Now, after a series of bombardment of 3D movies, visual fatigue has already occurred, and the previous scene of making money is no longer possible. The shoddy 3D movies made in China can't even cover the cost.
Xiao Yunhai's press conference ended soon, but the impact was very great.
Especially for Paramount's new special effects technology, it was a blow to the head.
A patent fee of US$3000 million a year is really unacceptable for Paramount.
Regardless of David Steer's presence, Franklin directly slapped the table and cursed Xiao Yunhai.After a while, it stopped.
David Steer didn't feel any dissatisfaction with Franklin's behavior, but felt a little bit of the same hatred.
"Ricky, what do you think we should do next? I originally wanted to count on our new special effects technology to sell well, but Kung Fu Xiao completely ruined it."
