Rebirth of the Entertainment Master

Raul said, "Let Miss Mo tell you about this matter."

Mo Yina is the manager of the Marvel agency, so she is naturally very familiar with the artists, so it is most appropriate for her.

"Sister Mo, long time no see."

Mo Yina snorted and said, "Boss, you just need to know."

In public places, Mo Yina still knows how to measure, and always calls Xiao Yunhai the boss.But in private, it's different.For a while, the sea of ​​clouds, for a while, that guy, there are all kinds of names.

The two laughed and quarreled for a while, Xiao Yunhai asked: "Sister Mo, what's the situation with the artists now?"

Mo Yina's tone was a bit dignified, and she said, "They haven't talked to me about this issue formally, but I know they've been talking about it in private, and there's been a big change in their psychology. The personal studio you set up is very important to me. They are so attractive, if I were them, I would definitely choose to be my own boss."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Why do I hear you complaining about me? However, let me tell you, it is not easy to set up a personal studio. After David got lucky this time, he made three films, one of which was It’s a big hit, but they don’t think about it. If the third film is also finished, then David will have to die. You have to talk to the artists about this matter, and don’t let them think that setting up a personal studio is a guaranteed profit. Its risk is much greater than that of entertainment companies."

Mo Yina smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think they will listen to me? Now the whole Hollywood is red-eyed, who would want to lose money. Not only artists, but also those directors want to set up a studio."

Xiao Yunhai said: "It seems that it is necessary for me to go to your place for a meeting. In this way, Sister Mo, you invite all the artistes of the company over tomorrow, and I will go and talk to them in person. This problem must be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise it will become more difficult. The procrastination problem is bigger. By the way, what is David doing now? Not filming, right?"

Mo Yina said: "No."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Okay, he must be called in tomorrow's meeting. Let him handle the trouble caused by this kid. I don't care about other companies, and our company must not have any problems. Forget it, I'll let him deal with it. let's hit."

Mo Yina said: "Okay. By the way, "King Kong" directed by Bi Kewen will premiere in North America at [-] o'clock tomorrow night. Since you are here, do you want to stand for him?"

In order to establish himself as the chief director of Marvel Comics, Bikwin was extremely strict with the shooting of "King Kong", and every shot was guaranteed to be perfect, not to mention the post-production, which almost reached the point of being critical.So despite the best efforts of the Magic Special Effects staff for his film, the speed is still very slow, and it was not finally completed until last month.

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Let's talk about this matter tomorrow after we meet with Director Bi Kewen."

Chapter 1411 Meeting

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yunhai rubbed his temples, and smiled wryly at Zhao Wanqing: "Look, wife, I know that as long as I come to Los Angeles, there will definitely be a lot of things waiting for me to do. I haven't gotten home yet, and things will be done soon." Here it comes. Hey, I really don’t want to worry about it.”

Zhao Wanqing smiled coquettishly: "It deserves it. You were the one who proposed the establishment of the artist's personal studio. You are not responsible for handling it, who is responsible for it."

"Yes, I did it on my own. Wife, help me remember it." Xiao Yunhai broke his fingers and said, "I need to go to a meeting tomorrow morning to solve the problem of the artist's studio; Rowling, the writer of the series, to discuss the publication and filming of the next two novels; to attend the premiere of "King Kong" in the evening, to see the masterpiece of our first Marvel director, Mr. Birkwin; the afternoon after tomorrow Going to Paramount Pictures at two o'clock to attend the board of directors of Stell Networks, David Stell is in Los Angeles, and he's starting to make small moves again."

Zhao Wanqing said angrily: "I see that you are really short of a business secretary. You have not yet arrived home, so there are so many troubles. By the way, what's the matter with Ms. Rowling? Don't you already have one? Has an agreement been reached? The next two "Harry Potter" will be bought out at a price of 500 million US dollars."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "That's right. The contract is written in black and white. As long as there are other companion chapters of "Harry Potter", they must be sold to me at a price of 500 million US dollars. But, my wife, now the "Harry Potter" series It has become popular all over the world, and the box office of a novel alone can exceed billions of dollars. If you were Ms. Rowling, would you be willing to sell your hard-working creation for 500 million dollars?"

As of today, the total sales volume of the five "Harry Potter" novels has reached 230 million copies, the total box office of the first four films has exceeded 3 billion US dollars, and the number of downloads on the Internet has even increased. As for the fifth part, it is still being filmed , MGM is going to make it into a 50D version.I heard it will be finished in a couple of months.At that time, the box office of [-] billion US dollars is no problem.

That is to say, the five volumes of "Harry Potter" that Xiao Yunhai bought out for 500 million US dollars had already brought him a fortune of almost 80 billion US dollars. In his eyes, the money was naturally nothing, but In the eyes of "poor people" like Rowling, this is not the case.

Not to mention 80 billion, even [-] million is a huge sum of money for them.

Zhao Wanqing said: "If it was me, of course I wouldn't want to. But you have already signed the contract, and she has no reason to ask you for a higher price."

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said: "That's right. But she still has one choice, which is not to sell it. Let's see, if we can't reach an agreement, then she will definitely not sell the remaining two copies to me."

Zhao Wanqing frowned and said, "Then what are you going to do?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Give her a satisfactory price. Wife, you can't be too greedy. The "Harry Potter" series has brought us so much money, it's time to give Ms. Rowling some benefits. Besides Now, we are not short of the money that "Harry Potter" brought us."

Zhao Wanqing said: "The rich are most afraid of insensitivity, husband, I'm really glad you think so. I support you."

Xiao Yunhai chuckled, hugged Zhao Wanqing in his arms, and kissed her hard.

Zhao Wanqing's face was shy, and she twisted the flesh on Xiao Yunhai's waist fiercely, and said in a low voice: "Is someone there?"

Xiao Yunhai hurriedly begged for mercy, and said, "Okay, I was wrong. Auntie, please let me go, it hurts like hell."

Zhao Wanqing glanced at him beautifully, and said, "Pretending to be."

With Xiao Yunhai's kung fu, let alone twisting his waist, even if he beat him desperately, it would be impossible to hurt him.

The two quarreled for a while and returned to their manor villa.

Since buying this villa, Xiao Yunhai stayed at most for more than a month throughout the year, and Zhao Wanqing's visits were even less.

Therefore, seeing this manor which is much larger than the three villas in Yanjing together, Zhao Wanqing felt both familiar and strange.

After dinner, the two of them walked on the grass several times in couple-style down jackets.

Probably because of the time difference, Zhao Wanqing felt a little uncomfortable, so Xiao Yunhai accompanied her to the room to rest.

At nine o'clock the next morning, Xiao Yunhai drove to the company headquarters.

Raul, Mo Yina, Bi Kewen, and David had already been waiting for him in front of the building. Seeing Xiao Yunhai's car slowly driving in, Raul hurried over and opened the car door for him.

Xiao Yunhai got out of the car, hugged Raul, and said softly: "There is no need to do this in the future. You are the general manager of Marvel Films, and you came to open the door for me. You are suspected of being flattering, and the influence is not very good."

Raul nodded and said, "I see, thank you boss."

Xiao Yunhai could even think of this for himself, it would be a lie if Raul said in his heart that he was not moved.

Xiao Yunhai greeted the other three people again, and said: "Director Bi Kewen, I heard that your requirements for the post-production of "King Kong" are too high, and the staff of our magic special effects company are a bit overwhelmed?"

Bi Kewen said with some embarrassment: "I admit that this matter is indeed a bit too harsh, but I have to say that the technicians of our magic special effects company are awesome, no matter what kind of problems, they can solve them perfectly. Mr. Xiao, you Don't worry, after "King Kong" sells well at the box office, I will definitely invite my magic brothers and sisters to the crew's celebration banquet, and the red envelopes will be at least six figures."

Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said: "What you said is simple. One person has six figures, so who is the one who pays in the end? Isn't it our Marvel? If you are sincere, then you can pay them yourself to send red envelopes."

Bi Kewen shrugged and said, "I've always been poor, and all the money is with my wife."

Xiao Yunhai gave Bi Kewen a thumbs-up, and said: "Everyone, have you seen that the more powerful the director, the thicker his skin. When it comes to money, he dares to say any reason, and he is not afraid of embarrassment at all."

Bi Kewen nodded in agreement and said, "That's right. So the movies you made are unparalleled."

Xiao Yunhai was taken aback for a moment, while the others burst out laughing.

Xiao Yunhai pointed at Bi Kewen and said with a smile: "It's been so long since I've seen you, but you've become a lot more humorous. This is a good sign."

Mo Yina said: "Boss, everyone, let's go to the meeting room. Everyone is waiting."

"Okay, let's go there then." Xiao Yunhai asked as he walked, "Sister Mo, how many artists are here for this meeting?"

Mo Yina said: "Everyone has arrived. There were many people who were filming in other places, and when they heard that you were coming to talk to everyone about the personal studio, they all asked for leave and came back. Artists who are far away, they rushed over overnight came."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "This shows how much everyone attaches importance to this studio. David, how do you deal with this matter?"

David Hartnett said: "Boss, I'm really sorry. Because of my studio problem, I have caused you so much trouble."

Xiao Yunhai said: "David, trouble is certain. Ever since I asked you to set up a studio and cooperate with Marvel Comics, I knew that sooner or later, such a problem would arise. It's just that I didn't expect it to come like this Hurry up. As artists, whether actors or directors, we all want to control our own destiny, pursue freedom, and no longer be restricted by the company. This is understandable."

Mo Yina frowned slightly, and said, "Boss, do you mean to support artists to set up their own studios?"

Among these people, Mo Yina is undoubtedly the one who is least willing to let an artist set up a studio.
