Super Zoo

Agency for overseas distribution rights... Oh no, the word "agent" is not appropriate. Strictly speaking, the overseas distribution rights in Asia were given to Long Wu in return for his previous help.

In this way, how much money Long Wu can make depends not only on the box office of the movie Zootopia in the mainland, but also largely on the business ability and efforts of his company.

This is equivalent to helping Su Ming. Su Ming reported to him a possible opportunity to make money, instead of directly dividing the money.

Maybe there will be opportunities for commercial cooperation between the two parties in the future, but this time, the relationship between the two parties can still be maintained as it was at the beginning, helping each other.

As for how much the Asian distribution rights of Zootopia can be sold for, it is still unknown.

One thing is certain, if Su Ming is allowed to negotiate, he is a novice and lacks experience in dealing with theaters in other countries, while Long Wu's Huaxiaxing Company is experienced. If they operate, the final price will definitely be much higher.

"Just the distribution rights in Asia will definitely not be 100 million. However, I am sure that it will definitely exceed 30 million." Long Wu smiled.

"It's impossible for me to make all the money in the world, Brother Shi. How much money you can negotiate depends on your company's ability. I said, even if it's really 100 million, I will never regret it. It's great if everyone can make some money. But I have a small request..."

"You say."

"I'm going to set up a film company, but I'm short of talent. There are some capable people, but unfortunately they are all laymen in the film industry. I think I should send someone to follow you and learn how to deal with all aspects of the industry. Including this distribution negotiation in Asia, listen in and participate in the whole process." Su Ming said.

"Of course, no problem. Since you really want to officially enter the film industry, there will be many opportunities for us to cooperate in the future." Long Wu smiled.

"Then congratulations on making money together." Su Ming said.

After a short but very effective conversation, the profit-sharing model of Zootopia was finally determined. Long Wu did not reach into Su Ming's pocket to take money, but turned his firepower to other Asian theaters, and Su Ming also provided Long Wu with an opportunity to make more profits than expected.

Everyone is happy.

When it comes to cooperation, Long Wu was not polite and proposed a cooperation at that time.

His Huaxia Star is currently investing in a fantasy blockbuster "The Investiture of the Gods". There are many mythical beasts, demon beasts, monsters, and fairy mounts in the film. The main body is animals. The previous plan was to use animation special effects to complete it.

This large-scale fantasy film has an investment of up to 200 million yuan, and a large part of the expenses are spent on special effects production.

It is handled by an excellent European computer team, and the cost of special effects for every second is a large number.

Long Wu wants to sign an agreement with the zoo to hire several animals from the zoo to perform.

On the one hand, it can save a lot of special effects funds, and on the other hand, the sensational effect of real animals is definitely better than pure special effects.

Of course, it is impossible to completely replace special effects, but to cooperate with special effects on the basis of real animals.

Su Ming pondered for a while and suddenly realized it.

Long Wu, this guy, looks simple and honest, but he is actually very smart. This cooperation is definitely not something he thought of at the last minute. He probably had it planned long ago. Maybe he even had this idea when he first asked him to help set up the crew before filming in Zootopia.

At the beginning, Jacky's concert only used more than 20 animals and simply cooperated with them, which achieved a sensational effect. Zootopia has proved that it can domesticate animals to be competent for the work of actors.

In the world, Yangchuan Zoo is the only one that uses animals to make movies. Bollywood and Hollywood, known as the movie dream factory, do not have this ability.

If I guessed correctly, Long Wu's real purpose was to ask me to borrow animals to help him shoot the Investiture of the Gods. The "30 million" he initially proposed was probably a feint.

If I don't agree, or show a little reluctance, he will definitely make this proposal. At that time, I will owe him a favor and have to thank him.

It must be said that the old ginger is still spicy.

Su Ming suddenly thought of a movie that Long Wu had invested in before, the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber starring Jet Li and Qiu Shuzhen. What did the saying in it say?

Not only beautiful women can't be trusted, but also seemingly honest men can't be trusted. The uncle has been through a lot, from being an underground emperor to the chairman of a listed group. He has experienced all kinds of situations. He knows everything. Even if he is helping, he will not do a loss-making business.

Zhao Yun suddenly flashed in my mind. This uncle seems to be such a person. Last time the winery expanded and diluted his shares, Zhao Yun did not object at all. Later, it was proved that although his shares were diluted, the income increased significantly due to the expansion of the winery. He was originally a small shareholder without decision-making power, and now he is still a small shareholder without decision-making power. He made more money without any substantial loss.

Everyone has different perspectives and ways of thinking about problems. Long Wu has Long Wu's abacus, Su Ming has Su Ming's. It's okay to borrow animals, but it's impossible to borrow them for free.

Finally, it was determined that the total number of animals should not exceed 50, and the total number of working days should not exceed 200. In other words, each animal has an average of four working days. If this movie can't use them all, it can be postponed to other movies in the later stage.

Huaxiaxing was responsible for helping Su Ming's film company get started. When Taoyuan Film Company was established, it helped the company train employees. For Taoyuan Company's next two films, Huaxiaxing would assist in setting up filming crews and arranging theaters for distribution according to Su Ming's needs.

After shooting two more films, Su Ming estimated that Huaxiaxing could get on the right track, officially become a member of the circle, and independently complete a series of film-related work.

After negotiating with Long Wu, Su Ming focused on setting up a film company.

Taoyuan Entertainment is not a film company. Last time, it was only the investor of Horror Zootopia, so it could not act as a producer.

Wang Hao had brought Peng Xue and his group back from the capital, and several major projects of the entertainment company were on track.

Su Ming originally wanted Wang Hao to be responsible and divide the film company under the entertainment company.

After thinking for a while, Su Ming gave up the idea.

On the one hand, it was because of Wang Hao's ability. Although the entertainment company had no major events for the time being, there were many daily affairs. If he managed another film company, or a newly started company that had to learn everything, it would add a lot of burden to Wang Hao.

People's abilities are constantly growing, and Wang Hao is no exception. His current ability seems to be insufficient to supervise two major film projects at the same time. Especially for a newly established film company, someone must devote himself to it.

On the other hand, as a leader, Su Ming must make some trade-offs. It is impossible for him to hand over most of his industries to one person, creating a situation where one person is superior to ten thousand people. This has nothing to do with personal feelings.
